This hash should be identical for all possible modifications of transaction.

Spent some time to update the wiki with basic info

https://github.com/novacoin-project/novacoin/wiki/Proof-of-stake
https://github.com/novacoin-project/novacoin/wiki/Coin-Age
https://github.com/novacoin-project/novacoin/wiki/CoinDayWeight

...

Hope you'll find it useful.

Well... It seems that current 0.4.4.7 testing branch runs pretty stable for now. This branch is available here for public testing:

https://github.com/novacoin-project/novacoin/tree/current

Basic list of changes:

1) Pruned transactions serialization support.

Pruned transaction records are now saved into coinsDB. These records are composed of 13-14 bytes of metadata (block height, coinbase/coinstake flags, block and transaction timestamp). This resolves all syncronization issues. Though currently there is no lifetime limit for such records, cleanup for old records will be implemented in the future versions of NVC client (this cleanup will be performed after reaching the 520-blocks maturity window, I guess).

2) Conflicted transactions handling.

It looks like my cold wallet somehow lost around 250 NVC after downgrading.. Any way to recover these coins?

Can you send me a list of transactions?

So what version am I supposed to be running now?

An actual client version is 0.4.4.6 update1:

Code:

"version" : "v0.4.4.6-nvc-update1-beta",
"protocolversion" : 60012,

It's available at sourceforge and github.

v0.4.4.5 and v0.4.4.6 also can be used without any problem.

By the way... From this day I'm starting to divide some coins between active p2pool miners once per 24 hours.

If somebody want to do the same, it's quite simple.

There are a few examples:

1) Distribute 1 coin proportionally between active miners:

Code:

novacoind sendmany "" "$(wget -O- http://IP_P2POOL_SERVER:8336/patron_sendmany/1)"

2) Distribute 1 coin per 24 hours automatically:

Code:

0 0 * * * novacoind sendmany "" "$(wget -O- http://IP_P2POOL_SERVER:8336/patron_sendmany/1)"

3) If you have no experience with linux or cron you can distribute some coins manually. Just open http://IP_P2POOL_SERVER:8336/patron_sendmany/N in your browser, copy the output and execute the following command using your RPC console:

Code:

sendmany "" 'OUTPUT'

Have fun

Just another p2pool update reminder message

Py2Exe: http://sourceforge.net/projects/novacoin/files/p2pool_win32_13.4-25-g6da08c4.zip/download

If you have not updated yet, don't delay upgrade without serious reasons. Don't risk wasting your hashing power. Roll Eyes

P2Pool was updated to 13.4-25. It's recommended to apply this update because it fixes an issue with block header timestamp. This issue could cause generation of invalid blocks.

Wow PoS difficulty is really taking off Shocked

Yep, that's crazy Shocked

I wonder what would happen with proof-of-stake difficulty if this holder will open his wallet.

~~P.S. It's planned to remove JSON-RPC interface support in the next p2pool update. So, next p2pool release will be stratum-only.~~ Postponed to a future release.

May I humbly suggest that the Sourceforge download page is cleaned up a bit? Most wallets have Windows/OSX/Linux files, this one has 17!!

Currently we are performing build removal only when it becomes incompatible with network. But maybe you are right...
