Topic: [ANN] Triangles [TRI] Now Stable & Working Anonymous Cloak over TOR - ON BITTREX - page 28. (Read 90287 times)

I did a repair wallet and now have this...

Coins show back in my balance but also show pending at Bittrex. 

{
"version" : "v3.3.4.4",
"protocolversion" : 70101,
"walletversion" : 60000,
"balance" : 8.66036000,
"newmint" : 0.00000000,
"stake" : 0.00000000,
"blocks" : 10879,
"moneysupply" : 49506.06519900,
"connections" : 2,
"proxy" : "",
"ip" : "0.0.0.0",
"difficulty" : 125.80864323,
"testnet" : false,
"keypoololdest" : 1405616421,
"keypoolsize" : 109,
"paytxfee" : 0.00000000,
"errors" : ""
}

Seems I get to the right block but I get stuck here.

My balance should be 0.00000000, not 0.19640100

My coins were sent to Bittrex which are pending there as a deposit with 0 confirmations.

Net amount: -8.66036 TRI

I've followed the instructions on the updated ANN and was synced before doing that.  Now I am unable to get synched again.

I had coins that were sent to Bittrex that had over 200+ confirmations and now they show as 0 confirmations and have been sitting pending at Bittrex for 3 days.

Anyhow, Ive tried going through it multiple times and end up at the same place.. 

All of my minting from staking seems to be wiped out, 0 confirmations, and not sure whats up with the coins I sent to Bittrex, they obviously aren't able to get their wallet synched either or something.

..confused..

oh...tbh....i ASSUME reservebalance would work since its there.

3angle? would it work?

and this would probably help short term (in a very annoying way) - but things have to be changed anyways to work permanently.

I never checked if reserve balance would work with this coin, but wurstglee says it would.

So, a second option for anyone knows how to set reserve balance and hasn't gotten their wallet up to 10879 and staked their coins; you could try to mint 40 blocks by yourself with a low number of coins.  (The number is actually a little less than 40.  I think I need 32 more confirmations.)  It would probably be somewhat annoying and take awhile.

I've never used reserve balance, but this is how you do it with Windows and 42 coins, I think.  Wurstglee, correct me if I'm wrong.
First, you need to enable hidden files and folders and go to your Users\AppData\Roaming\triangles folder
Create a triangles.txt file and rename it to .conf (you need to have the Windows option enabled to actually changes the file when you alter the extension) and copy and paste the following into the file and save the file:
server=1
rpcuser=trianglesuser
rpcpassword=trianglesusertest
reservebalance=41

Follow the instructions on the first page to sync up your client.  If you're doing the loadblock command correctly, it takes a few minutes to load.

After you mint a block, change the .conf to
server=1
rpcuser=trianglesuser
rpcpassword=trianglesusertest
reservebalance=40

etc.

Thanks

soooo.....network seems stable - but no pos minting happens.

problem is most likely the coin maturity which is way to high for the relatively small amount of nodes.

when i brought online my wallet after a few days, i almost immediately minted a pos block with 300 TRI (i could have quickly set reservebalance but who thinks of that?) - so those coins are on stake for over 50 blocks and unusable for staking currently. i figure that this is what happened to most of you guys: all coins on stake, no balance for staking available.

most of you - like me - also probably tried to transfer additional coins from bittrex since this would only need 4 confirmations - unfortunately these confirmations wont happen. the reason is whenever someone brings online a wallet with some coins to stake in it (because maybe he downloads the blk0001.dat), he most likely doesnt have your transaction from bittrex in his mempool because his wallet wasnt online when you submitted your withdrawal (you can check your mempool with 'getrawmempool' in debug console - you should see all your unconfirmed transactions there). this means your transaction doesnt get included in blocks he possibly mints. the "new player" then mints maybe a few blocks until his coins are on all stake - but all without your transaction - and we would be stuck again. so no help from there.


so currently we have a deadlock.

one way to resolve this would be to drastically reduce coin maturity (maybe 10 or even lower) to reflect the relatively small amount of nodes/wallets online. also raise protocol version and min_proto_version, add synccheckpoint. maybe add some gui option to set the amount of coins you want to put on stake with default value (percentage, total, minimum - sth like that) - the method to do that is already available (reservebalance), or even hardcode that. so basically instantly hardfork it.

tell bittrex to shutdown wallet, release updated sources, wallets, network should immediately pick up pace with a few wallets online because coins for staking avaliable, check if stable, tell bittrex to bring online new wallet. something like that.


//my 2 cents

awesome artwork!


edit: maybe remove the pools from OP?

added this to OP:

yep. also bittrex is sync again. my fuckup seems repaired. good.

edit: more and more peers. now we need more stakers (or simply some time). some of my coins are in transit, rest is on stake (i forgot to set reservebalance to not put all coins on stake at once )


you know why.



edit: i will bring another wallet in a vm online to further stabilize the network.

edit2:

OP UPDATED BY DEV! READ AND DO IT!

if u dont have a wallet yet, now is the time to get one. send some coins from bittrex to it and start staking. every amount staking helps to stabilize the network (and by doing this secure/increase the price of your coins)!

Sneaky suspicion..., some will regret selling at 4000ish.

tnx, I added it to the OP and have two new wallets synced up on a windows and mac VM.
Looks to be working on my end.

peers.dat and blk00001.dat (10868 blocks):

https://mega.co.nz/#!ZQUCzILB!8w0obeEDOKyr-R7VWqaUbt6qyn3lUMspFD8F089xC2A

how to use peers.dat and blk0001.dat:

- (close wallet if not done already)
- replace your peers.dat @ %userprofile%\appdata\Roaming\triangles (windows) with the one from the archive.
- delete or rename your blk*.dat files in the same folder (both) and start your wallet like this:

triangles-qt.exe -loadblock=            (like c:\blk0001.dat)

takes a few secs but your wallet should come up with 10868 blocks.
wait another few mins and you should have some connections.


use these wallets:

WINDOWS wallet, v 3.3.4.4 "illuminatus":

https://mega.co.nz/#!9J9DFZYa!YnJ8FShl774_z7YI4kFEdt6GeyPFz1jkNh1VWvnRXR8


MAC wallet, v 3.3.4.4 "illuminatus":

https://mega.co.nz/#!sdAkjAhJ!J6wbStpOSxq3PToEZD08hv0278eMTVqrQyIhyqFYsGk

need, peers...

could you also upload the blockchain and the peers.dat to mega?

haha, yes. :|

so that is why...

Oh shit, I fucked up and caused a fork. Sorry. :|

Please stop using the wallet i posted earlier at once and start using this one again:

WINDOWS wallet, v 3.3.4.4 "illuminatus":

https://mega.co.nz/#!9J9DFZYa!YnJ8FShl774_z7YI4kFEdt6GeyPFz1jkNh1VWvnRXR8


MAC wallet, v 3.3.4.4 "illuminatus":

https://mega.co.nz/#!sdAkjAhJ!J6wbStpOSxq3PToEZD08hv0278eMTVqrQyIhyqFYsGk

Resync ur blockchain after that! (block 108xx)!

Wow!

I'm having trouble finding any peers.  Any addnodes I could use?

Yep....it's stabilizing. Mined another few blocks. :]

I was curious - and gave it a try. deleted my local blockchain files, tried to resync again. the occasional few restarts...and.....synced up to 10864.

- my bittrex transfer went through, im actually staking and mined a block.
- tried another small trasnfer from bittrex to verify, the transfer immediately appeared in my wallet.

so it looks like its working. still not great - but somehow.


hints:

if u are stuck @ block 103xx, youre on the wrong chain. delete your blockchain files. search a peer with 108xx blocks via 'getpeerinfo' in debug console, copy his tor address and start your wallet like this from the commandline (windows):

triangles-qt.exe -connect=

repeat whenever the wallet gets stuck (at least block 9000, 9500, 10000).
