Topic: [ANN] Resurrection of Sprouts Classic 2% Daily APR Interest, 730% a year - page 14. (Read 23165 times)

Good news.  I managed to compile and run the old Sprouts wallet using QT Creator on a Mac.  Now I can make changes if I want.

So from reading your post, we will not be able to put Sprouts Classic to an exchange until the changes are made to the source code.  I don’t think it will be an issue and we might as well fix the MAX_MONEY issue, re-compile the executable for the new wallet.  

I have yesterday tinkered with the old Sprouts wallet that you posted a link to on my Mac, installed QT Creater to load the project and found numerous issues and plenty of warnings.  There are still errors that I am trying to resolve.  I am just trying to successfully compile the Wallet to run it and see that it shows the GUI wallet.  If that is done, I will have to increment the version.  I don’t know if compiling it on Windows will produce the same errors.  I will keep you posted because if it is successful then I can perform the rename of the project and executable to sprouts-classic.

I did just notice a sticky problem.  The sproutsHF group didn't rename their source code, so they are the ones holding the name "sprouts" and the ticker symbol "SPRT".  This is what exchanges use to distinguish between coins.  They won't allow two different coins with the same ticker symbol.

The only solution is a windows, and linux re-compile of the original sprouts code, and a name change to maybe "sprouts-classic" and ticker symbol "SPRTC", or something along these lines. ...

Then the users holding the original sprouts coins will have to update to this new wallet.  Which, of course, includes simply saving their "wallet.dat" file somewhere else, and installing the new "sprouts-classic" wallet, then inserting a copy of their saved "wallet.dat" file.

Until the above happens, I think its still safe to do all sorts of other stuff, like maintain the nodes up and running, and staking, even transferring coins from wallet to wallet is ok...  Maybe even try an air drop for anyone that installs this wallet.  I can give up 1 billion coins, and pass out 10 million to 100 new addresses.  

 

Yes.  I agree with you arcmetal.  Bastillar is soon releasing an explorer for Sprouts Classic and will provide an update probably tomorrow.  So now is choosing an exchange.  You have mentioned Yobit as one exchange.  Bastillar mentioned Crypto Hub as another possible exchange.  What is the best plan to get it onto an exchange as jennyblockchain mentioned pooling together a donation which I am in favor.  Any other suggestions?

May I suggest that making changes to the sprouts code now may not be the best thing to do at this time, but rather, getting sprouts back up and running as a regular coin should be the current focus.  That is, get it onto exchanges, get an explorer running, maybe its own website, get onto coinmarketcap, etc.  ... After these things are up and working, maybe then it can be ok to mess with its source code. (like fixing the MAX_MONEY problem, but leaving everything else the same, keeping it as a "sprouts classic").

This is just a guess, but even after it gets onto an exchanges, I've noticed that exchanges don't like so many changes to a wallet so frequently, so a modification to the sprouts wallet would have to wait at least 3 or 4 months after it gets onto an exchange.

I would like to try, since a few months ago I was able to compile bitcoin for linux from source, but I have yet to try a windows compile.  I did have plans to try and compile a version of sprouts.  So I don't mind tinkering with this.

Although, I'll be on a beach AFK for the last two weeks of August, and I'm gearing up for that trip now.  I may not get to seriously try anything until Sept, but sprouts has been running just fine for a few years, a couple more months may not make much difference.

I don't even know if the changes to the code you'd like to see will make for a soft fork or a hard fork.

This would require further study.

About a year ago I had written up directions on how to get this version of a sprouts wallet up and running on a windows PC.  Here is that link: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.19720939
-----------
And here is the github post I found with the latest version of the sprouts code (I'm not sure of its exact version, but it may be: v0.1.2.2-gd0cbc83 )
https://github.com/gjhiggins/sprouts

He also lists instructions for compiling.

Hi arcmetal,

Would you be able to re-compile the Sprouts Classic wallet to have it go MAX_MONEY to 100 billion?  From your response you already have the experience in the compilation.  Also, if there is mention of Sprouts in the code to amend it with Classic?  Let me know. 

The 2 billion error may be an easy fix, but the problems come in when you try to re-compile since a lot of the libraries are old, and there is a bit of hacking to get them to match up to the old sprouts code.

If you go to "main.h" the lines to change to fix this are there, and they look like this:

/** No amount larger than this (in satoshi) is valid */
static const int64 MAX_MONEY = 2000000000 * COIN;
static const int64 MAX_MONEY_2 = 40000000000 * COIN;

The old line that sets the max to 2 billion is the the MAX_MONEY is what is causing the errors. 
The second line fixes it to 40 billion.  Of course, anywhere in the code that says "MAX_MONEY" will need to be replaced with "MAX_MONEY_2".

I stripped this from the sproutsHF's code.  This is their fix, maybe an easier, but riskier fix, would be to simply change the value of MAX_MONEY to 40 billion.  The effects of fixing it this way would be unknown.

An explorer would do a better job, but here are some nodes.

I did a peerinfo on my wallet and here is the list I'm connected to.  I've cut and pasted it to look like the contents of a config file:

addnode=113.156.92.102
addnode=103.58.148.33
addnode=220.86.46.58

addnode=202.183.247.51
addnode=119.59.115.147

and here is a copy of my current sprouts.conf file, although I can assume a lot of these nodes are dead.

I just downloaded the Sprouts wallet source code to get an understanding of it.  Let me see if I can fix the 1 billion error and increase it to, like, 40 billion.  Also I will change it to be Sprouts Classic to be unique and independent from the failed HF wallet.

Thanks Bastillar!!

I had both Sprouts wallets running on my win10 pc but then the power went out and it wouldn't open both but... just tweeked the .conf file with listen=0 and they are both open... just waiting for it to get connections and I will update later.

God bless you Bastillar .  I totally trust you from your 808 coin giveaways on twitch and I follow you on YouTube, twitter.  For those that do not know Bastillar, he does what he says and even has a book to help you out in starting to make income in cryptocurrencies using POS.  

I can definely with help from others in handling this community.  With regards to exchanges I believe arcmetal talked about one called yobit which is not too expensive.  We will have to make sure this thread is well moderated and no talk about hard forks or swaps.  This is purely dedicated to and I am just going to say it from now on as ‘Sprouts Classic’.

Thank you all for the support.

For those of us who stake and trade Sprouts for a while, but don't keep up on everything in every thread, can you explain the difference between the two Sprouts?

if the proposal has been accepted, I think there are no more obstacles to going forward, provided the team continues to be competent to fight for something that must be fought for

I'll donate some old sprouts.

The price to get added to Yobit.Net is not that high.  Either: 0.0 btc, 0.1 btc, or 0.5 btc.

https://yobit.net/en/addcoin/

But some hurdles will need to be overcome for this coin to be added to yobit.

1. DZPrince will need to lose his newbie rank.
2. An image will need to be added to the OP here.
3. Some nodes may need to be added to the source code.

I'm in!

Hardfork killed Sprouts by taking away rewards and leaving total supply.

Before anything we also need a Telegram or something to discuss properly.

I join, and the question is, how many coins do I need in my wallet to receive POS. While I have 80 million

This thread is dedicated to resurrecting the old Sprouts for those that are currently using the old wallet v0.1.2.2-gd0cbc83

Let's discuss on how we can continue Sprouts Classic by seeing if we can add it to an exchange.  One proposal was to donate to a pool which will go towards putting it to an exchange.  We will need to see which exchange we can put it on.  All suggestions are welcomed.

Let's see what will happen
