i'm keeping an eye on this,but can someone send me a pm when the issues are all taken care of and the coin is stable/ready to be listed?  

We'll get it up on CryptoALTeX once we see stability etc.  Rooting for you guys, save the rhino coin!

I'm pretty sure you'll get a load of PM when all is set and stable..  Wink

The source is on the Dropbox link.

Probably a good idea to fork the original github link, put the changes in your fork, and announce the new link.

This ^

Plus new announce thread so someone active can control the first thread post.

We apologise for the problems you are having.

Please try this (it has worked in all our testing); [WINDOWS]
http://www.sendspace.com/file/3dnxoq

Also, we will take suggestions for a name change and put that into place at a later date. Our main priorities were to make the coin functional again.

We will make a new ANN when this has been accepted by the community as the current fork and once we have changed the name etc.

Just tested this and it crashes and don't accept wallet.dat. i will test it better later.

Edit: this seems to work just fine as it is, but if i try copy/paste my old wallet.dat (where all my coins are) it says wallet.dat corrupt, salvage stopped. I try to send some of my coins in old client to new address in new client and see if it works..

But very much thanks to new dev team for working for this. Can tou please tell us something about you?

Here is the new code, a compiled qt wallet for windows and source for Linux etc;

Code:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/zw8t7sgfe1yp3v1/pSxecwP50H


We have fixed the KGW exploit and it will start 200 blocks from now (block 14750). That should solve the extremely slow re targeting we're getting at the moment.

It is still only CPU mineable in line with the original plan. We felt it was a unique element to the coin and also didn't want to change it too much from the original developers plan.

If the original dev decides that he wants to retake control that is perfectly fine by us, just let us know if you plan on doing so Smiley

Please all update your wallets to continue on with this fork. I think we can all agree that it is not going anywhere fast in its current state.
Crashes here (Win 7 x64, AMD FX-8350), also you forgot to include libwinpthread-1.dll. Thanks for doing this though.  Cheesy

Same here (win 8.1, i5-4760)

And thanks to new dev!

How about the name?

I think we shouls start a new ANN thread when this takeover is fully completed.

Anyone interested of making a new logo?

So this will be on Crypto Altex, or is that a no?

I think the problem with getting it listed was KGW and the absent dev. Hopefully now that it has been solved we can be listed.
I suggest you mine before it starts to get too hard.

It isn't a good idea... we won't reach block 24000 before 3 or 4 months, single computer can't get a coin within a sensible time, there is no pool. the coin will be dead before it reach block 24k. (understand that we want to dump the cpu mine coin, before the gpu arrive... but three month it is still  very long)

Once KGW kicks in soon then it will be no problem for CPUs to mine this coin.

Hey guys!

We are going to take over this coin by the end of the day if there are no objections. A coin that is listed on an exchange needs some sort of active development.

We have been looking through the past posts on this thread and have seen a few good ideas such as starting a charitable fund and possibly changing the name. If we successfully take over ownership then we will make sure to put these questions to the public through polls etc.

There are a few of us and are willing to put some coins in the kitty for bounties etc. More will be revealed later, including how you can help if you wish.

The first things we will do is patch up the KGW code to fix the exploit and sort out this terribly slow retargeting.

This sounds great!

My suggestions are:

- Keep the cpu only feature until block 24200.
- change the diff retarget to something like 5 blocks if possible and kgw after block 24200.
- rename coin. Maybe rhinocoin as talked earlier in this thread. ROC for short name.
- keep our already mined coins!

These are things that i have had in my mind.

It isn't a good idea... we won't reach block 24000 before 3 or 4 months, single computer can't get a coin within a sensible time, there is no pool. the coin will be dead before it reach block 24k.

Sounds like a good plan.

Just kill the coin and if you want to really have the rhinos , there are volunteers needed right now for the real "saving" not getting rich schemes.


Not everyone can up sticks and move to another country to work on rhino conservation, we have jobs and responsibilities. What we can all do is donate a few CPU cycles.

KGW exploit is a non issue for another 10k blocks plenty of time for those guys who are going to step up and fix it.


Other than that the only issue is slow retarget atm but that does not prevent the coin from being able to be moved around.
Maybe those guys can fix this issue as well say make it retarget every 500 blocks or something or do the KGW fix and allow KGW to kick in sooner?

I still like the CPU only aspect of it its great hopefully the new devs will keep this feature/bug in and hopefully the OP will come back and welcome the assistance.

Hope this isn't an inconvenience.  We will include you in the next drawing as you were above the threshold before it changed.  This change was to give free votes more of a say compared to what they had before.

The more votes the better of course, set your alarm to click every 12 hours Smiley

I don't understand. We had the most votes yet we didn't get added :/


As I said above we would add you as this weeks winner however there are currently issues from what I can tell.  Without an active developer the KGW exploit etc is not going to be fixed.  If we can get word from the developer etc that this coin is going to be continued with support we will add it.  It would be bad for us to add a coin with a known exploit and no active developer.


I'm awaiting info
