Not sure why but my wallet stays at exactly 63.86% sync rate, then gets stuck there and synchronises again to that % point when shut down and started again.

Is there any known fix for this?
Using Mintcoin qt v2.0.0.1 for win32.

Other than the described issue, it has been syncing fine so far.

Edit:
conf file looks like this:
addnode=144.76.220.169
addnode=213.114.153.118

A minted transaction should take 40 confirmations.

A standard transaction is confirmed within any arbitrary count that you would like it to be confirmed. You could respend it within 0 confirms if you would like to. The QT code suggests a number of confirmations to wait, and highlights the transactions accordingly. For Mintcoin this is set to 4, we could bump it up for the next release if we want to, theres no real reason to though.

https://github.com/MintcoinCommunity/Mintcoin-Desktop-Wallet/blob/master/src/qt/transactionrecord.h#L76

OK,
You confused me.  Wink

I thought mintcoins sent to another wallet was 4 confirmations before the coins were available to be used.
And 50 confirmations if you staked new mintcoins.

What exactly had 10 added to it, that is my confusion.

Thanks.
 Cool

I would go by these numbers as it is what your QT wallet should be telling you

Before Fork:
- CoinStake tx requires 50 confirmations (nCoinbaseMaturity + 20)
- Normal transactions require 0 confirmations, but QT wallet suggests waiting 4 confirmations.

After Fork:
- CoinStake tx requires 60 confirmations (nCoinbaseMaturity + 30)
- Normal transactions require 0 confirmations, but QT wallet suggests waiting 4 confirmations.

I opened an issue on github if you need to discuss this some more or find any issues. https://github.com/MintcoinCommunity/Mintcoin-Desktop-Wallet/issues/15

Edit: the issue is concerning the over reporting of confirmations required by certain parts of the code, this seems uniform over a wide range of PoS coins and is not unique to MINT.

Thanks for the info. btw please use github issues page for technical things like this, much easier to track than bitcointalk.

I think it was just wrongly labelled, the change was for the coinbase transactions which are checked for depth in this process when they are spent. You can spend unconfirmed normal transactions at any pace you would like.

Ok, maybe, just misunderstood, when sending and receiving coins with the mint wallet ,
should it take 4 confirms or 14 confirms, because mine shows 4 like always.

Thanks.

FYI:
https://github.com/MintcoinCommunity/Mintcoin-Desktop-Wallet/commit/0438e27664719ed568d2add77e85bee08dcfd125
Add another 10 confirmations to the network requirements for
transactions and coinstake transactions.


int nMinConfirmations = (GetAdjustedTime() > FORK_TIME ? nCoinbaseMaturity + 10 : nCoinbaseMaturity);

Mint confirmations are still at 4 during transactions, so that line does not appear to be working.
May want to edit that part about 10 additional confirmations per transaction if staying at 4.

Just a little update:

I've been working on my own towards a stable 64bit windows build the past few days. It is slow going, to say the least, but I'm making progress. I'm currently running into an access violation when trying to read the .conf file that is causing both the Qt wallet and the headless daemon to crash.

Hopefully I'll find the source of the problem soon and be able to provide a Minty fresh 64bit client Smiley

Wow I havent had such an easy wallet upgrade in so long.  To top it all off, v1.7 had a debug file over over 200mb over the last 2 weeks and v2.0 opened and synced in no time.  I was terrified to have to download he chain again but no need!   Even my CPU usage has dropped significantly (most likely due to the debug.txt not being active but still).

It's this kind of development, foresight, and attention to detail that is going to make this coin thrive.  Great job Mint Team!

Edit***  Whats the dev address again?  I feel sharing some minty love.

Here is the mintcoin address for our new developer
