Changes are in, we will be restarting in about 2 4 hours from now (and with a windows wallet this time).

Awesome, I just wish the sgminer would work for solo mining...  Cry

I dunno... i haven't got any performance increase with it.... in fact, just had a rig hang on it
50MH/s with the V2 miner, 290MH/s with the sgminer... (Radeon 6950). The first miner (with the proxy) just crashes.

hey dev kindly update the windows wallet link.. Thanks

Setting up dev environment atm, the chain is stopped until we get full windows wallet compiled from the get go.

Any news regarding relaunch? It's been a little quiet in here for quite some hours already.

Great, will be interesting to see which coin can fix the issue the quickest and most effective.

interesting.
Original Pascal did not have this problem? Or perhaps it's more that this feature wasn't evident until the network was far bigger?

Basically you can stall the network by attaching a weird timestamp to the last block, and the client assumes that it is behind the tip by a fair amount, this means that someone with enough hashpower could 51% attack the network and stall it forever mining blocks and releasing them when the timestamp of their finishes... or someone more crafty comes along and attaches a timestamp even further in the future.

Couldn't having a bunch of nodes prevent that? I'd assume the nodes would have some sort of consensus on what is the precise time discarding miners who try to cheat.

This coin first launched with 2 nodes, not just one like the other coin and as far as I know this one didn't suffer from the attack, but I could be wrong.

Whatever the case might be, depending on local timestamps seems like a pretty dumb idea.

The original Pascalcoin is being attacked as well and it has quite a few nodes: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.17705293

More nodes are useless, Pascal Lite has over 100 and is still being attacked (although it has much lower impact now), it is the wallet that refuses to submit blocks when there is a "newer" one. Obviously a bug in the code.

Indeed, there's a sore need of better time drift management in the wallet. Workin' at it these days before the relaunch.

The "attack" per-se is also passive, if someone got a mis-configured rig with a bad clock then it will "attack" the network by submitting offending blocks.

Pretty dumb that part, really.

And now TurboPascal coin lol, i think i'm going to develop BASIC coin  Grin

javascript coin Wink

No, no   Shocked it's not antique enough, but a COBOL coin would be fresh and could attract new investors  Cheesy

As the dev that got contracted to do work on this clone (which i was reluctant at first, sorry olamorr, gotta be honest) the upstream code seems very clean compared to a Bitcoin <= v0.9 (which was a horrible mess imho).

There are some mid/long term goals on this coin i like (which aren't my responsability to talk about)... let's see if this shitcoin sticks Tongue
