Fired today my Ethereum Classic Mist  Wallet (Ethereum-Wallet-win64-0-8-1) and it is stuck at Downloading block 2,527,063 of 3,042,058 for 24 hours.. no progress.

Is there any other wallet where I can import the mist keys!
Thanks

48 hours and no progress.. still stuck at block 2,527,063.

Can anyone help pls???

I hope someone can point me in the right direction.

I had the mist wallet open for 72 hours to see if it made progress past block 2,527,063 but no progress was made.  I closed and opened the wallet every 24 hours but there was no progress either.
Now I have downloaded the new wallet (0.9.1 (Pre Release)) but it gives a network error and does not download anything.

So basically Mist Wallet IS USELESS!  Does any one have any suggestions?  Can I import the mist wallet keys to any other wallet?

Thanks for you help.


u can use parity or etherwallet or classicetherwallet
https://github.com/ethereumproject/parity
https://github.com/ethereumproject/etherwallet
https://classicetherwallet.com/#generate-wallet

https://ethereumclassic.github.io/

Yes thank you also.  I got it fixed.  see above for details.

hi dont know if you still need help but
you should go to slacks chanel
https://ethereumclassic.herokuapp.com/
the devs are there and they are very nice and will help

Opps, sorry but i did get my problem fixed but thanks for responding.

I used the Ethereum Classic Geth 3.2.3

I installed it in a new laptop.  I let it sync and shut it off. Then I copied the keyfile to the directory in the "users" roaming directory (windows), and started geth again.
I was the able to open my wallet (using the attach command) and had no sync problems.

@altcoinrich. It is obvious that both ETC and ETH will not go to POS. ETH will not do it because it will make ETC stronger and also it might be technically very difficult with them. ETC has no definite plans to be POS.

This is only my speculation but QTUM could become a proxy POS platform for Ethereum. Dapps and smart contracts in Ethereum can be migrated and run on QTUM according to their developers.

Will ETC go to POS like ETH does after 90 million coins mined out? I guess you will continue pow, is it correct?

40GB, that is vastly inflated with spam transactions that are fixed once you redownload the whole chain.

That is what is included in the blockchain so there will be no changing that just like the spam transactions done in the bitcoin blockchain. 40GB is not vastly inflated. You will need to download the whole 40GB just to run a full node. All that from a platform that is not mass adopted yet. I speculate that proof of work and smart contracts are the future but ETC is not a good implementation of it.

ETC ready for breakout? What do you think guys  Smiley

nothing is made in this universe for forever so its  not need to worry about its breaking point of view. Cry Kiss

I think so yes slowly differentiating from ETC and some dev weight now - so watch this space IMO

For the investors who will put the money on ethereum classic, please read this article maybe there are good information can be taken from there.

I downloaded parity, used parity --geth it downloaded the whole blockchain in less than 3minutes but my account is empty, the wallet address is correct but it shows 0 eth. I moved the UTC wallet file from appdata\roaming\ethereum\keystore folder to parity\keys. Why can't it see the balance ?

edit: use --chain=classic to be on the correct chain.

run
Ethereum-Wallet\resources\node\geth\geth.exe

wait.. 12GB download  Smiley

With parity it's 3GB only.

Why only 3GB? Did the development team of ETC did some blockchain pruning? That is a big difference from the real size of the blockchain which would be over 30GB by now. Everytime I ask how big the blockchain is no one gives me a straight answer. The supporters of this project maybe trying to avoid the seriousness of the issue.


40G....(( hole size of blockchain ))

Then continue with 0 eth  Smiley

It shows full balance with 3GB blockchain, I used parity with --warp, maybe it's that.

If the ETC community would like a high speed low latency node hosted, i am able to host a supernode for ETC for 0.2 BTC / year see here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-node-hosting-service-node-hostingonline-seed-regular-nodes-01-b-yr-1766796 for my node hosting service. If any in the ETC community are interested, drop me a line! I hold some ETC.

How large is the ETC blockchain right now and how much larger does it grow on a month by month basis? I would like to invest in this long term but I fear that the blockchain size might the ETC's biggest limitation to making it scalable.

On the topic of monetary policy, is capping of the total no. of coins mined implemented already?
Thats a very good question the block chain for ETC and ETH is so big its a pain in the ass to use a real wallet and what's ETH going to do when pos kicks in because myself and most ppl cant get the mist wallet to sync especially on windows

Both Ethereum classic and Ethereum fork do not have the critical mass of users that bitcoin has yet but both networks have blockchains that are so large it would be hard for it to become decentralized. How much does it cost to run an Ethereum node these days?
