in my opinion that sounds like a very good idea ..
the old CENT is definitely dead
The Catman aka Petr1fied did thankfully some necessary things, but he has for sure no interest to be a dev for this coin .. thats what he clearly said
Rozu, you give me a lot of hope for a promising future of CENT ... just awesome!!

hi PoolMinor,
  thanks for your reply, i don't care whether i or who take over the Pennies project, i have browsed this forum for two moths, i know no one want to take it over,  The_CatMan has disappeared for a long time, so i do it.
  Taking over Pennies project must be a tough task, i saw The_CatMan do many things, got no reward and got some abuse.
  I believe some cryptocurrecy will be better than BTC or LTC, i want to do some experiment on Pennies, if Pennies success, it's a great honor for me.

Hi nuno,
thank you for your remind, i just post a reply.

i always browsed BCForum via guest, i just register this account when i think i has the ability and some free time to participate in Pennies.

thanks! if you found some bug, please contact me, i will fix it ASAP.

u r great, buddy! it startup in seconds, and it's syning.... wait to see

i has been a professional programmer for 10+ years, i do when i think i has the ability to do that.

i first noticed bitcoin one year ago, when downloaded the sourcecode, compile and run it, i found it's a machine killer, cost too much CPU time and use huge storage, i think it's not a good software so ignore it.

until last Dec, when i got some news from TV about bitcoin, i'm surprised about its success. then i read detail about its soucecode and related articles, further about LTC,PPC and PrimeCoin.

two months ago i think i can manage it and add any feature in it, i want to do sth.

my first idea is to create a coin that is pure POS and no decimal, it's likely real currency, people put money into bank and get interest,  real currency has no decimal.

but pure POS needs to supply large amount of coin when first run, if these coin is generated and owned by me, i think no one is willing to use it.
besides, there are too many cryptocurrencies now, new cryptocurrency is hard to be accepted by people.

then i noticed Pennies(CENT), i found Pennies(CENT) can solved my problem,  CENT has huge amount of coins and been exchanged for a long time, so i think the coins must spread out over the investor, investor will support CENT.

there are many existing issues not only in Pennies but also in other cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and PPC.
for example, PPC has a issue in the funtion CheckProofOfStake that can be easily generated fork, Pennies and other POS based cryptocurrencies derived from PPC, so has the same issue, that's one of the reason why so many cryptocurrencies often have fork.

i want to do some improvement on it, if someone like, we can together.

However it is encouraging to see someone try to fix Pennies ...

I'm in complete agreement with the comments above. We need some verification both of your credentials and the code before we can even think about switching to the new client. If the whole community is not fully trusting and willing to move in this direction, we'll just be forking it yet again, which is the problem we've had all along.

It is absolutely necessary that first we get either The Catman or Petr1fied to verify the quality of the changes made, as they are really the only authorities around to instill confidence in the changes. Furthermore, The Catman should officially hand over the reins to make this seem more legitimate, though if he is unavailable for contact, then this might need to be discussed more in depth.

Also, just a couple of questions:
1.) Are you associated with the group over at http://user.cent-help.com/? If not, and they roll out their code changes tomorrow, we'll have an interesting time sorting through all the code 
2.) Do you have the time and ability to actually manage the code if given that responsibility?

Sorry for the skepticism; I really appreciate your time and effort in support of Pennies, and I think you have some great ideas. Just trying to make sure those changes won't run us into the ground any further 

Hi Rozu,

It appears that you have a new login BCForum, can you give us some background on your past experience. Why should the community trust you?

Do not take my questions as an offence but as genuine questions which I am sure I am not the only one to have them.

Tks,
Nuno

Catman are you willing to pass the ball to Rozu?

I applaud your need to bring this coin back from the dead, but until I see proper notification of the coin changing to your hands I will treat your changes as hostile.

CENT has released 10.3.1, see the detail #2124
Pennies = CENT

windows-qt
https://github.com/Rozu/pennies_release/releases/tag/10.3.1

it's much faster startup and sync than before, and will support Android wallet later.

Hi,all, i want to take over Pennies project if no one care about it. Thanks shakezula and The_CatMan for creating it and fixing the stake issue.

I like Pennies because it's no decimal and pure POS. POS is first introduced in PPC, but PPC can still create valueable CPU-Mined coin, Pennies has enough coin now, CPU-Mining is valueless. Pennies must be better than many other coins if its code is stable and it has more feature.

I have done the following work:
1. Accelerate startup. Old Version startup cost 30 minutes at least in my laptop, new cost only 3 minutes at most. I found PrimeCoin startup runs much faster than Pennies, so i migrate the related code into Pennies.
2. Accelerate sync. Old Version can't sync normally. I'm not sure i have fixed the sync issue, but i has tried 10 times to sync correctly between 3 hour and 14 hours. but 10 times test is not enough, if you meet the sync issue, please let me know, i will try my best to fix it.
3. Support Bloom Filter Protocol, it means Pennies will support Light-Wallet soon, Android Wallet will be released later. I have finished a light wallet demo, it can finish sync in 20 minutes and can receive and send coin correctly.
4. Fix the issue:Stake-Mining cost 100% CPU.
5. Fix crash issue. Old Version startup will crash in my laptop because scrypt-hash has some CPU-specific code.
6. Upgrade openn-ssl to 1.0.1g


How to upgrade
1. Backup wallet.dat
2. remove the folder of %APPDATA%/Pennies
3. startup piggybank.exe
4. after synced, copy the wallet.dat to the folder of Pennies, restart piggybank.exe

Important Note:
The format of blkxxxx.dat and wallet.dat has changed for accelerating startup, please backup wallet.dat before running 10.3.1

People who like Pennies must be united to make it better!

Concerning DBL, a link to similar conversation.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.6240508

I'm on the bad fork too, mine is reporting 222503, the explorer is on 219724.

Just killed it, looks like we made waaay longer chain than explorer shows.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.6237202
I have deleted blockchain but im back on it after download it again.
Hopefully cryptsy daemon will follow it too.
Killied my P2pool node, will wait day or two to see how it goes.

are you still running your p2pool node?

RU sure about explorer? https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.6115946

edit: synced. Nodes:
If client not want to sync, delete chain, delete peers.dat, and use
doubloons -connet=ip1 -connect=ip2 -connect=ip3
for those IPs.
When in sync close and run again, it will search for more nodes.

WTF!
Anyone have any good addnodes for Doubloons to stay synced?
I'm stuck at 212549
I have these and can't stay synced:

addnode=92.5.105.68
addnode=70.98.114.237
addnode=46.242.90.51
addnode=46.151.21.226

Also, http://altexplorer.info/chains/DBL/block_crawler.php seems to be stuck at block 207839.  Not sure if it's just a website thing or not.

http://explorer.doubloons.net/chain/Doubloons seems to be fine.

Wish these sites showed a list of their connections for us to use.
