I sent some coins from bittrex to one of my wallets.
Bittrex gave me this TXid: 822045cf749b02a06308c0e176e4034dd395ac9666f350153c682f55246b0d47 but the block explorer yields no results when I enter that TXid, and the coins have not showed up in my wallet. Did we fork? Is Bittrex on the right fork?

Make sure you KEEP your existing blockchain or download a fresh copy because there seems to be a problem syncing from scratch.
UPDATE and STAKE! Feel free to point your X13 miner at the wallet - it should be able to accept a PoW block, although none have been produced, new PoS blocks have been.

How do I point my miners at the wallet?
You'll need to make a Techcoin.conf (text) file in the ...\appdata\Techcoin directory with something like this:
Code:
server=1
port=57697
rpcport=57698
rpcuser=rpcusernamehere
rpcpassword=rpcpasswordhere
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
addnode=tech.chainworks.info
And then depending on the mining software you're using you'll configure it to connect to the wallet, so for example if you're using the CPU miner it looks like this:
Code:
minerd -a x13 -o http://127.0.0.1:57698 -u rpcusernamehere -p rpcpasswordhere
You would change the username and password accordingly, but everything else stays the same.
This thread has the mining software if you need it: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/marucoin-new-x13-algo-mine-now-kgwdgw-no-ipopm-exchange-570744
The PoS blocks are flowing - I still don't see any PoW blocks but the network may still be majority PoS only and thus rejecting them, or the difficulty is way too high.

nice, the wallet IS COMPILED on github 
I downloaded the blockchain and used it with the original .conf file from my previous wallet and it opened synced awesome stuff guys

tx for following up, this is precisely what I mean 
I just gave it a run but still 'out of sync' still minutes later. Should I add some nodes ? thanks again.
I just gave it a run but still 'out of sync' still minutes later. Should I add some nodes ? thanks again.If you are on block 5085 and it says out of sync that is fine - no problem. Next version will be partly fixing that problem (the GUI was very impatient waiting for a new block and declares that it's out of sync if it doesn't see a new block after an hour, even though it's not out of sync from the rest of the network's blockchain) along with a lot of changes to the code to allow the blocks to be produced regularly without creating more base currency.
The update is ready but since this will produce a hard fork we are trying to coordinate the publish with the exchanges' update so that everyone will be able to withdraw to the correct chain. A good number of you will have coins staking right away when you update to this version because it reduces a lot of time that coins need to wait to re-stake. After one more block of PoS the PoW phase 2 will begin and you can mine for network fees only like bitcoin will be eventually, although you won't have to mine because PoS will be running too. I will also publish a new copy of the blockchain once we see PoW blocks to help with the fork.
[edit: no need to add nodes, we have DNS seeds built-in]
Cheers!
great stuff, thanks for putting in your time on this. so will we be able to continue mining for tx fees after block 6000 is complete? I think that would be a first for a pos coin wouldn't it?
The 1.0.2 code has the second PoW phase ending on block 6000.
The plan is to end at block 6000, the general thought is that without a healthy reward for mining and a decent amount of hashing power on the network there is a chance for a malicious attack on the network that doesn't exist if we eliminate PoW at some point, otherwise, yes it would be great to let it keep going indefinitely.

love the positive momentum demonstrated here! I'll contribute where I can for the future of this special coin. So i'm trying the latest wallet and it seems to get stuck syncing at block 85, is this unusual at the moment?
The whole network at stuck at block 5085, is that what you meant? If you are having trouble with block 85, just download the blockchain from github and drop it in the Techcoin appdata folder, it should sync up then.
We are about to release a new version that will hard fork the blockchain and re-start proof of work mining to get it moving again. By the time PoW stops at block 6000 the PoS mining should be moving the blockchain on their own.

I see you guys have been doing some good things with Fire/Truck///// Firetruck lol.. Just saw that.
The sooner this gets moving, the sooner we can move forward and start working on plans.
Are there any domain names that are owned for Tech? or should we begin to look at this?
TechCoin.com is taken, but the likes of techcoin.org or techcoin.technology are available.
or we can go in a different direction with something like techcrypto.com.
Thoughts, suggestions? This will be the first step of many as a legitimate website will be needed to build trust.

How about techco.in?
Anyone else? should I purchase domain and do hosting? Let me know I can get it going right away
I looked at .in and it was very expensive, although I may have looked at the price through my frugal glasses.
I bought chainworks.info because it was cheap and I can use it to host a variety of crypto currency stuff. I've assigned tech.chainworks.info as the dns seed and techblocks.chainworks.info as the block explorer. I also purchased a (super cheap) hosting package from compucoin that I was gonna use as the block explorer host but it's only good for regular web sites that don't need to run a wallet, so it could be used as the techcoin website. I'm happy to make techcoin.chainworks.info point to the hosting and make it available, but I totally understand if you'd like to get a more prominent domain name - we can set up to create a bounty donation address to cover costs.

what about just adding an s? TechCoins.com?
fingers crossed on the new update soon, has been over 24hrs since last block again

Testing the updated code now.
I've also made a couple little improvements to the GUI for staking - if you hover over the staking icon it will always show the network weight and it will wait longer for a new block before saying it's out of sync. Thanks to presstab and the hyperstake team for leading the way!
More wallet improvements to come in future updates.
