Topic: [ANN] [DRZ-V3] [DROIDZ-V3] [ANTI-INSTAMINE] - A FRESH NEW START - WALLET 3.0.1 - page 13. (Read 39859 times)

hi all ...

chrysophylax here ...

im messaging from this 'newbie' account 'crysx' because i have tried to log in to bct from the new premises - and failed miserably - so please excuse the off-topic post ...

due to my computer being a linux machine AND being fully encrypted AND having a password wallet that is fully encrypted - i only ever really need to know a few passwrds ( 16 in all ) ... one of the passwords ( and details as i later found out - due to the questions that bct ask for verification ) i did not alott to memory were those conatined in the personal encrypted wallet ... one of those was bitcointalk password and details ...

yesterday - i tried to log in unsucessfully with the wrong password ... the password is 3 years old - which as long as ive had the chrysophylax profile ... it also has made more than 3000posts and is a hero member - about to go to legendary in the coming weeks / months ... now before any of you carry on about changing passwords regularly and all that - i agree and am totally devoted to changing 'simplistic' passwords ... not ones that require brute force with decryption algorithms and a farm of hash to crack the passwords ... so to move on with the story ...

more than all that - the chrysophylax profile is also is the authority profile for the granite thread AND the dbm thread ( the two projects i currenty have ) and was about to take control of the other coin we have just adopted - ozziecoin ...

when the unsuccessful attempt to log in was tried three times - i attempted to change passwords via email ...

the email was sent from bct to my email address - and i followed the instructions to the 'change password' link - only to have them as a private question - which i have forgotten the answer to also ...

i didnt think that was much of an issue - except that as soon as the submit button was clicked - i receieved the following message ...


now this shows three things ...

1 - the security measures that bct have in place are brief and not very descriptive ...
2 - the security measures that bct have in place are active ...
3 - the security measures that bct have in place work ...

now i proceeded to send an email to the above email address to theymos - and will see what happens in the following couple of days ... being an easter weekend - i would assume this may take a little more time so ill leave it till mid to end of next week ...

if i havent received a response by then - ill message mprep and see what suggestion he / she will advise of what can be done ...

a three year hero profile like mine should NEVER be allowed to go to waste ( as i know many of you have had profiles lost that are much older than that again ) - and there should be various countermeasures to allow the official owner of the account to prove themselves ( like knowing or remebering the last private messages before the lockout - which in my case was the 23rd march 2016 ) ...

but again - we will see what happens with the responses i get ...

i will keep you all informed of what happnes with this through this profile ive now started ( which is the short version of my name anyway ) ...

as for the update so far ...

the move is being finalized on the 28th march 2016 ( a couple of days away ) which means i will be on and offline here for the next few days - only to be completely offline for a few days while i set up house in the new premises ... this means that i will be only messaging when necessary - and any of those of you that needed my attention before this happened via pm ( there were about 7 pms in all - i only got to answer one ) will need to send a pm to this current profile - until i can resolve this issue with theymos ( and mprep if possible ) - to get back into my official profile ...

thefarm will be down and will not be back in to production until another residence for it can be found - and am currently in the process of looking for a small warehouse for its growth and redesign and development ... that will happen end of next week when i have personally settled into my ( partner and i ) new residence ...

i will be posting this message in all three forums that are granite based - AND - the mining forums i usually frequent ( like spmod and tpruvot thread ) ...

much appreciated for all your support thus far - and hope to be back online soon with my proper profile ...

Thanks for your patience. I have lost so much money trying to save this coin.

Thanks for your hard work guys!

Its your wallet, nobody could tell better than you can

Possible reasons:

1. You have "staking=0" set in your config
2. You have reserved 10000 or more coins (see "Option" dialog)
3. Your wallet is not synchronised
3. Wallet was closed

Do you see the staking icon active? Whats the staking time estimation shown?

10000 is big enough number to stake pretty fast.

You probably need to get more coins

any reasons why i havent staked yet lol, wallet is unlocked

Thanks

Its time for the exchanges to release the coins. Still locked many coins at yobit.

Where is drz exchange?

What I tell is based on practical experiment (except the theory)... I as I told I have tested with one MN and one staking wallet, and my wallet was losing balance after each stake If you are interested, I can show you the wallet addresses in the block explorer, so you can see it for yourself.

The pure PoS reward size is never effected by MN payment. PoS block reward is calculated first and added to wallet balance, then the MN amount is subtracted from that, and sent to MN. If MN reward is bigger, the result is wallet having less balance than before stake!

I have checked several other MN coins (like Dash, 8bit etc), and the MN payment amount there is not based on staking reward amount, but is always smaller, not twice the size of it like in current DRZ code:)

8,022,979 DRZ

Remember that I paid for this block chain to be extended beyond its previous expiry date.

Hi,soopy,how many total number about DRZ-V3  at present?

I don't think that works like that?
where in the code are PoS rewards effected by masternode payments? I canna see anything myself .


i'm just waiting for my qt to sync :p only 15k blocks to go

hi all ...

away for two days as the beginning of the move - then back here for the rest of the week to organize the rest of the move for the completion on the 28th of this month ... will take me about a week to settle in - so ill be back on a more regular and stable basis after that ...

i have only touch on the read i need to catchup on - but will do that today with a more detailed post ... if needed ...

soopy and i keep missing each other on skype - so for the next couple of days - we will discuss everything that needs to be laid out on the table ... have meesaged you already greedyjohn on pm here - even though you know that skype is the better way to get hold of me due to my 'moving' circumstances ...

will be back after i have caught up with all the reading and running around i need to do today ...

I suppose the "Droidz" mentioned above, is supposed to be 'Drays', right?   'Drays' pretty much sounds like 'Droidz'... There is just a small subtle difference...  

Sure, MN was secondary issue during the swap. I would love it to work as I could have run the only MN and collect all the payments during all that time
The problematic code is not in the part changed by you, it is there from the very beginning as implemented by previous Dev (supposedly "Frazazel").

Thanks for responding outside your normal online/working hours  

Hi All,

Thank you Droidz, Bumba and GREEDYJOHN for your kind comments and support , appreciate it so very much.

About the Balance , I m waiting to hear from Chrysx opinion on the same.

About the Masternode matter , due to the major event that was the swap we mainly focused I only looked into the Masternode matter as a secondary issue that was pressing that time and did not run a complete check on that at that time and did only the changes that would have made it worked if the code was good enough but according to Dray's Analysis it is not due to the same changes not being implemented by the previous Dev I believe , please allow me next few days to run a complete scan of the affected code and resolve this matter the same.

Warm Regards,
~SoopY~

  Maybe it shouldn't be, but it is

Heh... looks like I am well ahead of you in when it comes to Droidz-MN... . I had those 25K coins, so I tried to setup a masternode, spent a good deal of time, and there is long story I can tell about this ) I know almost nobody cares to read long posts here, but maybe (might be!!) someone will... who knows.. Here it is:

Here is the current situation:
 - As soon as those 25K coins confirm, Mastrernode could be started and you indeed can see it in "masternode list"! But here good news finish . The MN is visible in "masternode list" ONLY in your own wallet, all others do not see it. Moreover, after a short time (maybe 1-2 minutes) it is kicked out even by your wallet, and becomes inactive. No MN payments come even in those 1-2 minutes.

I have started debugging the wallet, adding some printouts and modifying the code both at MN wallet and another staking wallet. Being new to this code, I spend about 6 hours to find the reason. Must say the MN-related code is not really clean, and seems somewhat illogical in places (its not purely Droidz code, it is exactly the same code as in many other MN coins, including Dash).

After the modifications I was able to run the MN, and have it working stable and receive payments from my staking wallet - but only my wallet was able to work with that MN, because both had the same modification. This means the code is perfectly fixable, and if change applies to all nodes/wallets, MN will work ok.

One additional observation - it is actually very good the MN do not work currently, as otherwise staking wallets will have "-5%" yearly stake!! Note the "minus" - it means stakers would have lost coins instead of earning
Here is the reason of this:
https://github.com/DroidzDevTeam/Droidz-V3/blob/master/src/main.cpp#L4251:
The payment to MN is indeed 10% yearly, but the stake percent is still 5%, as a result MN gets 2*5%=10%, and the staking wallet gets 5%-2*5% = -5% yearly. Nice feature . Reminds of paying taxes to make the rich ones more rich...
