Is this coin dead?

Buy cheap now and get X10 your money back once this is sorted, seen it happen before

So what's the plans here? the coin seemed to have potential before everything went to shit.

1st things 1st... we're at it, sir! Wink

if you consider spending some time in between until ready to be dished, you might want to clue yourself into the recent developement by getting some 3 to 4 pages back and make yourself a picture. deal?

...plans are coming

and step by step ...  there will be an explorer (maybe even more, 3rd party preferably: independent, distributed),
there will be a new one stop website and certainly social media representation,
and there will be a new thread on bct to manifest the takover reignition of SPARK and provide all the necessary information, any other proper announce would...

that's when all primary goals are achieved and stable to a certain amount.

let it heal organically... signs are all on good, worked out amazingly swift as of now...
just think about the state the coin was after 10041.
without immediate action it would have rendered all coins 0.
so... I'd say, we got somewhere since.

share the confidence Smiley

No website, no explorer >>> no buy.

Ah, I love the effort that goes into posting comments like this, surely if you had bothered to read much of the last few pages you might have come up with something more accurate like "waiting to see if this coin can recover from the network fork and exchange trading suspension before I buy"......

For those are interested, will see what the feedback is like now people have a Windows wallet to get back on the blockchain with, and will do something about setting up a new thread since we have no control over this one. I'm not a fan of moderated threads, but I know what the trolling can be like on BTCtalk (usually a sign that a coin is making progress!), so if anyone has a strong opinion pls state.

And of course, any volunteers to join this project are most welcome!

yet another crucial milestone settled... cool you got a first windows binary to compile... I'm still into building it via QT5/msys+mingw as well... such mess, very dependencies, many not compile, whow...
Thinking about a clean and fresh build environment (working on a doomed maschine right now) I do feel a strong urge to move away from windows and cross compile from linux... that setup might be worth the effort, as it could be a perky foundation for a one-for-all build solution plus making it available as facility image wouldn't bring up license problems. meh... good we have a 1st working version right now, RentaMouse u da man!

Btw, I have a suspicion that the occasional crash on load error is IPv6 related, if that helps anyone....

Also, if your wallet loads fine but sits on "0 network connections" then you need to make sure its loading peers from the conf file - have a look in your Spark data folder (default is %appdata%/roaming/Spark) and either create a "spark.conf" file or edit an existing one - add the nodes below to it. Restart the wallet and it should start connecting, once it finds a couple of working peers then it will learn other peers from them and you should end up with 8/9 connections.

One other thing, I have noticed that when syncing the blockchain from zero the wallet can get stuck at 14400 blocks (end of PoW) for a while - restarting it can get it going again after a few minutes.

List of working nodes below:

addnode=213.136.72.235
addnode=178.62.47.198
addnode=98.229.49.119
addnode=46.105.118.15

Sorry about the delay but here finally is the Windows GUI release:

https://github.com/RentaMouse/Spark/releases/tag/v1.2.0

In case you're wondering why its a bunch of files, I compiled it in QT5 with dynamically linked libraries so I could run the debugger and currently I can't get a static compile out of QT because I've made such a mess of dll's etc on my main system.

The core daemon code is the same as the Linux sparkd release, and the only changes I have made to QT/GUI interface is updating the supporting libraries to try and remove the annoying crash on start that happens sometimes. Tested it on a couple of my other WinXX systems and it seems pretty stable - if you encounter problems pls let us know tho.

One other thing, I dont believe the DNS seeds are working any more - if you upgrading an existing wallet then you should be ok as it can used the stored peers.dat list, but if its a new install I recommend using the Spark.conf file include in the zip to add a bunch of working nodes.

Don't all get too excited, as I still have to sort out some dll hell in order to provide a user friendly Windows exe, but I finally have a running copy of SparkQT ver1.2

Still throws the Visual C++ error unless I disable the network adaptor whilst its starting, if its an easy error to debug and fix I will, otherwise that can wait for another release.



ah cool man... I'm at it, too... yet, lot of time went by to just get those darn deps together... neither qt, nor vs are my domain in the first place... everything c/c++ under windows... yikes.
yet, out of bare nothing, I'm still confident to get it to a first clean run within the next 24h...


talked to a friend of mine today if I could get some space and cycles on his server to get an insight block explorer + wallet to run... and he was pretty curious and open after I mouthwatered him with what heck of a beast node would be (he's an oldschool perl/php guy... node was certain witchcraft to him til now Grin) ... think we should get that going somewhere next week... try to quench as much time out of my schedule as possible Smiley



..


Whoever is going to be the new dev, you should fork the github to one is under your control, restart this thread with new plans etc , coin is working fine

creating an 'official repo', making propper announcement, etc. marketing blurb., are indeed close to be necessary...
yet, first we need to get the infrastructure going SAVE... we're getting closer, yet I would consider current state more or less as hotfixed only.

At this time, I'd say that the SPARK that is distributed will be save, as long as the market refunding works as expected.
RentaMouse is at the windows wallet, I'm too... and getting the refunds via an instamine block would be the solution to implement if possible.
however, at the moment I myself do have no solution in mind, how I would actually implement that, as I'm just getting into the guts of the techniques underneath...
...haha, well... I should be wee bit more secretive about making too much assertions before getting the wallet to compile propperly in one go under windows Wink

however I guess we'll know within the next week if we can do reproduce the lost SPARK via superblock or the likes... or if we need to achieve it via donations.
within the next week I'll also try to get the block explorer going... a richlist will for sure help finding some folks to motivate for donations, I'd say Smiley


Glad to hear Bittrex are re-enabling trading, thanks for all the support @Richiela et al Smiley

If we can do a 50k "instamine" block to cover the exchange shortfalls etc, are any Spark holders going to complain? Best to say so now rather than moan about it later!

One thing it would be good to establish is whether any major pools were mining on the minority chain after the fork, iirc the nethash on that fork was pretty low about 12hrs after block 10040 so I suspect there weren't many miners - it will be impossible to calculate any compensation for them as they would have been earning a huge amount of SPARK/MHs on that chain due to the low net hashrate.

I'm back working on compiling the Windows GUI wallet, delays partly due to me messing up one Windows machine and partly because the source we inherited is something of a mish-mash - the dev has added stuff on to his original Shadow/Silkcoin clone but the documentation is far behind.

lol, not just that ... I looked at the silkcoin code and that doku seems to be as well behind... doku? DOKU?? we don't need no stinkin' DOKU!!! Cheesy ...

works for me. just make sure noone steals that block i guess.
