I have 2 Hodl wallets.  The passphrase on my main wallet is no longer working.  restoring the backup didn't work either. 
Is there anything I can do to get access to my coins again?  I mined about 680 blocks.  I would hate to lose all those coins, now that they have started maturing.
680 blocks? Dang son.

I'm quite new to bitcoin, hodlcoin etc networks but I'm trying to learn more.

Looks like there is no DNS Seeds. Hodlcoin wallet has hardcoded "DNS seeds" but those seeds are actually just nodes. Only westcoast.hodlcoin.com and eastcoast.hodlcoin.com are working.
Code:
vSeeds.push_back(CDNSSeedData("westcoast.hodlcoin.com", "westcoast.hodlcoin.com")); //West Coast
vSeeds.push_back(CDNSSeedData("eastcoast.hodlcoin.com", "eastcoast.hodlcoin.com"));//East Coast
vSeeds.push_back(CDNSSeedData("europe.hodlcoin.com", "europe.hodlcoin.com")); //Europe
vSeeds.push_back(CDNSSeedData("asia.hodlcoin.com", "asia.hodlcoin.com"));//Asia
vSeeds.push_back(CDNSSeedData("174.140.166.133","174.140.166.133"));//Hodl-lay-yee-hoo
vSeeds.push_back(CDNSSeedData("54.201.171.55", "54.201.171.55"));
vSeeds.push_back(CDNSSeedData("54.213.104.91", "54.213.104.91"));


DNS seed should give a list of node addresses like bitcoin dns seed seed.bitcoin.sipa.be.
Code:
nslookup seed.bitcoin.sipa.be

If node is listening incoming connections you should get a response from port 1989. This can be tested by tcping https://elifulkerson.com/projects/tcping.php .

Code:
C:\Windows\system32>tcping westcoast.hodlcoin.com 1989

Probing 96.44.157.195:1989/tcp - Port is open - time=208.603ms

Ping statistics for 96.44.157.195:1989
     4 probes sent.
     4 successful, 0 failed.
Approximate trip times in milli-seconds:
     Minimum = 200.919ms, Maximum = 208.711ms, Average = 205.925ms


But if nodes eastcoast.hodlcoin.com and westcoast.hodlcoin.com are working why users cannot sync their wallets via those nodes? When you manually add other nodes syncing works.

Mmh. westcoast.hodlcoin.com is running version "/HOdlcoin:3.0.0/".

I added
connect=46.4.64.68
connect=eastcoast.hodlcoin.com
connect=westcoast.hodlcoin.com
to my hodlcoin.conf to make my node hodlcoin.dy.fi always connect to those nodes.

Thanks for this investigation. I've removed the westcoast and dead nodes and repointed them at some hopefully live nodes that should aid new users with connections. Anyone still running 3.0.0, please stop!

Anyone who has a reliable node at a fixed ip address, please message me if you'd like me to point the a dns addresses at your node to help with keeping the network robust for new users to get started.

Also, no, coin is not dead. :p

I've always been a Windows user, and have limited experience with Linux. With that said do you all think it would be more beneficial to mine on Linux system oppose to Windows system?

I have not tested if there is any performance difference. I use Windows 10 and Debian for mining. Windows 10 is my workstation and Debian my server. I like Linux because I use SSH to connect my server.

Is this coin still has any future? I mean isn't it dead yet?
I have mined quite a bit of it, but just wondering is there any perspectives here...  Roll Eyes

Ok I got my problem solved ....

IF GUI IS NOT STARTING - > USE COMMANDLINE

enter in hodlcoin.conf

Code:
rpcuser=##USER##
rpcpassword=##PASSWORD##

start hodlcoind.exe with windows cmd
wait to load blockindex / sync
then send your coins via commandline

Code:
hodlcoin-cli.exe getinfo   <--- get info about current blockheight ...

hodlcoin-cli.exe getbalance  <--- get your current overall balance on wallet

before you can send your coins use this command to enter your passphrase

hodlcoin-cli.exe walletpassphrase <---- set password() with in sekonds

hodlcoin-cli.exe sendtoaddress <---- Send to provided ---> returns transaction id for blockexplorer

Anyone having problem to open hodl market https://www.coinexchange.io/market/HODL/BTC ?


Latest Tweet
coinexchange.io‏ @CoinExchangeio 15 h
4/ We expect markets and trading to be active again within 24 hours.

https://twitter.com/coinexchangeio

I couldn't buy Hodlcoin from market so I bought hashing power from Nicehash https://www.nicehash.com/marketplace/hodl . The price is 0.0001 BTC/kH/day. There are many standard orders bidding 0.0001 BTC/kH/day so you have to be lucky to get your turn (miners). When there is no fixed orders you can create fixed order and get hashing power by bidding 0.0001 but I could not set the limit creater than 1.4 kH/s and fixed orders can last only 24 hours.

If the market price gets high you can check if it is more profitable to buy hashing power from Nicehash and get yours by mining.

--------------------------------
Update:
Market is working.

[spoiler]
  • block explorer - I can build and self host this at the new website no problem.
  • seed nodes - I currently have seed nodes running in San Francisco, London, Singapore and Kansas City so I see no issue taking care of this.
  • faucet site - I don't see a big issue with this and I would hope the community could donate up some coins for faucet(s).
  • ability to built wallet for windows / linux / macosX - I can do all of that compiling myself no problem there.
  • exchanges - I am already working on a new logo. I am willing to help fund new/additional exchange listings.
  • more developers needed - True that but honestly I think I can handle this and I do have in-house help.

1 - payment gateway , needed if you ever want to see light-wallet type apps use Hodl , look at existing api's see if we can integrate.

I agree on this and it would be a more medium to long range goal.
 
2 - Freetrade HIP002 proposal , https://medium.com/@freetrade68/hodlcoin-improvement-proposal-002-adf802d2ccb7

I think this would be an improvement and not really difficult to code.

3 - The size of the blockchain and the wallet load time ( for me its 5 mins ).

Another area for improvement and I would love to hear suggestions on how to best achieve this.

4 - the automation , speed at which we can make new wallets / releases ( volunteer QA people )

More help would sure be nice but I think things can be done quickly enough.

5 - The official website with download links to official software.

Once the logo is ready I can have the site up and running ready to go within about 2 weeks.

6- Official youtube / twitter / slack channel or telegraph ?

I would say YouTube is mandatory for a location for tutorial and marketing videos. Plus that I can market YouTube videos for about .06 USD per video view. Facebook would also be mandatory and there I can market videos for about .02 per view. Twitter is okay and can have a coin page there no problem. As far as slack/telegraph I am confident once you see the site I am going to build the coin site will have this function integrated. The new site will have community groups, live chat, discussion board, and blog.

Good to see you in here inputting. I know you've been very involved in this coin and I really hope you'll continue to be an active member of the community. Quick question, have you been getting paid to do coding work on the coin or did you donate this? Would you be interested in doing coding work going forward either donating your time or in exchange for pay?

That sounds great!!!

Should we create separate thread for developement?

@ghobson or anyone else, Do you know what is the best way to troubleshoot the syncing problems? Maybe troubleshoot guide is needed. Some potential hodlers can abandon Hodlcoin if it takes too much time to get wallet working.

I started running 24/7 node (85.131.28.119, IP may change). I'm fully synced but some of the connected nodes are behind. One says -1.

hodlcoin-cli.exe getpeerinfo | find "synced_blocks"

Edit 1.
Now I have 4 of those -1 nodes connected. None of them are downloading.
