yes there seems to be two forks, one around block 1009057 and one around 1008577.
I've done a couple test withdrawals from Bittrex of 5 TES the other day and I can see them on the explorer:
http://www.multifaucet.tk/index.php?blockexplorer=TES&txid=f23cb46559fdc8ae62ea09f7351b1a71bda3097309c2e75937c41a388832b668http://www.multifaucet.tk/index.php?blockexplorer=TES&txid=7111c49d234f52c7eaa6a1c34b5a0cdde10fe2ae96b99d9ce030306f3608cc39so this proves that the explorers and Bittrex are on the same chain. it also proves that the block update status of the TES wallet on Bittrex is not always right. Currently Bittrex wallet says last block update was 176 minutes ago and the explorer shows 10 blocks in that time frame. so there is a time delay in the reports or something is funky.
Anyways, this at least allows me to focus on meeting the block explorer chain which provides much more info.... blockhash, blockcount, etc...
I let my wallet try to sync from scratch overnight with just about every addnode I could get my hands on so I could get a good idea of where everyone stands. this morning I had 15 connections and took a look through to see who was on what chain.
on the "good" chain: 1009057ish
194.135.84.136:47930
193.198.102.16:39684
188.134.72.213:55485
82.176.15.155:42332
162.255.117.105:63089
on the "bad" chain: 1008577ish
192.71.218.138:1856
188.246.71.198:1856
104.172.24.79:58883
The rest of the connections were in the same boat as me, trying to catch up.
The problem I am having now is that any wallet on the new chain is not syncing blocks to my wallet. I assume there is some way to disable this
the only node I can currently get a connection too from the "good" chain is below, and it won't send me any block updates.... I assume the "inbound" field at false has something to do with it.
{
"addr" : "194.135.84.136:1856",
"services" : "00000001",
"lastsend" : 1460726916,
"lastrecv" : 1460726887,
"conntime" : 1460726054,
"version" : 63001,
"subver" : "/Satoshi:9.1.0.2/",
"inbound" : false,"releasetime" : 0,
"startingheight" : 1009099,
"banscore" : 0
}
gonna let it sit for a while... maybe all day and see if can reconnect to anyone else.
Here is my current Teslacoin.conf to only connect to nodes on the good chain. **my getpeerinfo list shows the odd port numbers, 47930,39684, etc... I also added the default 1856 port as well.
maxconnections=5
connect=194.135.84.136:47930
connect=193.198.102.16:39684

If I start from the cryptochainer file, the only chain I can get on is the "bad" chain and I get the same that Rw13enlib88 shows, stuck on block 1008577 and last block 1009099. it shows the higher one as a last block since you are connected to a node from that chain, but I could never get up there.
