SCIFI block explorer moved from cryptoguru to ccexp.
http://ccexp.tk/CurrencyInfo/index.php?Currency=SCIFI

The only explorer I know of lpool.name ... its not really a full explorer... just the bare minimum for yimp pool.

I'm happy to throw up a VPS if anyone can help me build an explorer for it.

I personally like insight.is: https://insight.is/ as an explorer, but not sure what's involved in adapting it to work with United SciFi.

Something is done to exchange?

I want to be involved, but where I am, I can't. Is there a position to earn or buy a coin without mining now. For most coins with high anonymity, they always face the threat of hacking by state security authorities. What's the plan for that?

As for an exchange for this coin:

As long as there is an explorer -- why not add it to Bisq?
https://bisq.network/

No exchange 'listing fees' and keeps it in a P2P Exchange environment!

Good Morning all - Some exciting news.

Our exchange is done. Everything has been tested properly.

United Scifi Coin is listed on the exchange as a trading pair with Bitcoin. You can visit https://cryptomarkets.co.za/markets/btcscifi

All trades, deposits, withdrawals, two factor authentication etc has been tested properly. We have also setup ssl with Comodo for encrypted transactions between the clients and the server.

As expected of any new exchange there is not many trade activity but it will sure pick up as we will start to promote the exchange.

We will be added new coins as we progress. Currently there are 13 coins added to the exchange available for trading.

Thank your for the quick update. I've updated my node.

Shouldn't you be using the dev-messages thing to make all the clients warn their users that there is a new version and whether or not they MUST update to it?

That is kind of the point of that message feature isn't it?

Or does this coin not have such a feature?

By the way, I have set up United SciFi Coin onto the STELLAR network as asset "USF" with anchor (trust line) GBHAQ252S4Z4AQOM4BWIRC3UHAOJIKCZQBUJGD336YH2O7W2NKRXMHA5

It and the other assets I have set up there, including several other sci-fi themed coins, are listed at http://makemoney.knotwork.com/stellar/

I expect to also add the SCI-FI coins, including this one, to the HORIZON network, probably as "assets" rather than "currencies" since creation of "currencies" in Horizon seems to be broken, then you will see them added to my lists at http://makemoney.knotwork.com/horizon/

The advantages of STELLAR over HORIZON are that you can trade anything against anything (platform's native coin, Lumens, do not have to be part of every trading pair) and that fees seem to be tiny. Also, at least in theory, it should enable "converting" any currency/asset to any other currency/asset, given enough pathways (trading pairs).

The advantage of HORIZON over STELLAR is that you do not have to "tie up" native currency to create "trust lines", thus do not need to have native coins (HZ) "tied up' per currency or asset you wish to work with.

Because HORIZON (HZ) does not seem to be on any mainstram, web-based "exchanges" anymore, I have implemented an HZ asset on STELLAR.

New version. Mandatory update.
https://github.com/scificrypto/UnitedSciFiCoin/releases/download/v1.0.2/unitedscifi.v102.win32.zip
Fixed bug with accept PoS block timestamp too far in the future.
 Users must update client before block 195000, or you may go to wrong fork.

This is exactly what I will do.

How about for a start do the following:

- Nodes reject blocks more than 3 minutes in the future (POS or POW doesn't matter)
- This rule is enforced starting at block xyz (couple of days from now)

That way people have time to move over to the new version.
Old version will still be fine until this happens again, then they'll fork off (and should have upgraded)

SCIFI have another method block time stabilization. In old Novacoin code (QBT, HYP) all was OK, but in new code they accidently create this bug.

I'm not a coder by any means, but would it help to implement something like this:

Source: https://github.com/peercoin/rfcs/blob/master/text/0001-exponential-pos-target-for-block-time-stabilization/0001-exponential-pos-target-for-block-time-stabilization.md

I check, it is not depend on POS power.
May be change some other parameters, remove POW or change POS rate?

Ignoring the half Chinese nonsense bot posts,

Please fork / fix. Right now this can happen again at any moment and only you (as major POS owner) can cause (and fix) it, which is not a good thing for a coin.

If you put up a fixed version I'll immediately update it everywhere. My main node always has more than 30 connections to it so it'll help force the chain over.

Please make the new version compulsory after 1,000 blocks or so.
 

I simulate this event again and found bug in latest Novacoin code:
Future drift checks only for PoW blocks
Need hardfork to fix it.

i have study your project n hope that will rise surely

I stake only coins that receive as all other users. (KED, QBT, UFC, GPL, DPZ swap)
All unswapped coins out of stake.
Checkpoint server starts only on one computer with master key in config.
Currently SCIFI not on exchange and no need use checkpoint server.

I suppose dev has right to stake as well. If you want to turn it off on your wallet, you can do this via the .conf file right?


What does this mean? This is not default feature in UnitedSCIFI?
