Guys I have newst wallet and it's stopped sync on 153954. Huh

Look at your debug.log for the answer. I have synced HAL clients from scratch many times without any trouble. If you use dynamic IPs, you may need to restart your wallet to detect an IP change, re-establish addnode'd connections and re-register with the IRC.

I don't understand why you switch the Algo at or after the end of the (profitable) PoW Phase, IIRC (If I Remember Correctly) the Block Reward is now 5 HAL per Block and was like > 250 HAL per Block when first mined, so with the new NeoScrypt Algo people would mine for 5 Coins a Block.

Don't you think any other feature would "push" the coin more other than switching the Algo ?

couldnt agree more with ocminer <3

Come on, this so called profitable PoW phase was a well played instamine. Even though it was better than a pre-mine or ICO, it was no way a fair distribution. Now it's fair to mine and earn decent interest.

No surrender, no retreat, no regret.

Think of coin days (weight) rather than coins alone. 300% per year is 0.82% per day. 5 HAL can be earned in 1 day by 610 HAL input, in 2 days by 305 HAL, etc. Of course, if it's lucky enough because stake generation is a random process like any kind of mining.

To get the max 5 hal reward, what should the coin blocks max size be in coin control?

Thank you

anymore addnodes?

The connection right now takes forever to download the blockchain

The whole block chain is 166K blocks or 88 megabytes to download. How can it take forever?

Good to hear that, Mullick. The pool is up again. I'll get a block explorer running today most likely upon completion of a X15 -> BLAKE2s block hash verification module.

Ok just got back into town. Ill have a look tonight and fire it up if all is well

EDIT: Back online

Updating tonight

Only pool seems down and no explorer. Can someone get me the blockhash for the chain height?

The network has just switched to correct PoS rewards. Make sure you run v1.1.0.2 wallet.

By the way, merry Xmas

No surrender, no retreat, no regret.

I have noticed some blocks delivering very little stake rewards. It appears there is a bug of the previous developer who has had copy-pasted some code without understanding. Bitcoin defines COIN as 100 million units (satoshis). HAL also follows this. However PPC, NVC and most other PoW/PoS coins define COIN as 1 million units. That's for a reason to avoid overflows.

Code:

static const int64_t COIN = 100000000;
static const int64_t CENT = 1000000;

int64_t nRewardCoinYear = 300 * CENT;

nSubsidy = (nCoinAge * nRewardCoinYear) / (365 * COIN);

While 64-bit unsigned integer allows for very large numbers (2 ^ 64 = 18446744073709551616), it may be not enough for the code above. Here is a real example from the HAL block chain.

Code:

in  158.52232967
out 158.52752437
coin age nValueIn=15852232967 nTimeDiff=335481 nCentSecond=5318122968
coin age nCoinAge=61552349166

nCoinAge * nRewardCoinYear = 61552349166 * 300000000 = 18465704749800000000

Incorrect subsidy is (18465704749800000000 - 18446744073709551616) / (365 * 100000000) =
519470 satoshis or 0.0051947 HAL

Correct subsidy is 18465704749800000000 / (365 * 100000000) =
505909719 satoshis or 5.05909719 HAL

It gets limited to 5 HAL on the next step. So, I've modified the reward calculation code to make sure it never overflows.

Code:

nSubsidy = (nCoinAge / 365) * (nRewardCoinYear / COIN);

Works fine for HAL since the current and future interest rates are multiples of 100% which is COIN.

Please upgrade to HAL v1.1.0.2.
