When will be done new version wallet?
Thanks

Dev lost job and is trying to start company in real life.

I have not abandoned Version but I am tied up with "real life" stuff e.g. job situation.  That said, if mindfox and crew want to put development resources/effort in and submit pull requests I will not turn them down as it only helps everybody.

I started going down a path that is, unfortunately, very time consuming.  The problem is because of our fork issue, there is kind of what you can think of like a "plug" trying to go through a pipe and clogging it up - which is a large chunk of orphaned chain that needs to be processed through and then things go on - but this processing consumes a huge amount of resources and brings the RPC interface etc. to its knees, which causes a big operational problem for the pools.  So, part of the solution is to get the codebase onto leveldb as it is still on bdb.  Unfortunately, this is not so simple to achieve.  There are also some threading improvements that could be made, etc.  One possible solution that may be easier, is to take a codebase that is already on leveldb with recent updates, and then port the Version coin parameters, difficulty algorithm, and block reward algorithm over into it.  This may prove faster to implement than bringing leveldb into the existing code base.

For normal users its not a blocking issue, but for pools who depend on high RPC throughput it is a problem.

So..... Dev is on vacation. We'-got only one pool moving blocks (Thanks Mimdfox). Old blocks are dead?

Im not sure what I could do, but I am willing to help

I wish I could help, but probably not.

mindfox, have you been in contact with staycrypto?  Why hasn't staycrypto done anything to continue/fix development of Version?  It looks like he is working on Probe, but not Version?  (recent posts in Probe thread) Has he abandoned Version?

I will help out.

If your 16k were from the fork that wasn't accepted (the wrong fork that was going really really fast) then I'm sorry that your coins do not exist as they were mined in the wrong fork.
I know it's not very good to say that, but do you remember when I was warning everyone to stop mining and only come to zeuspool in order to assist with the testing?
Also, do you remember when I was also yelling after the update that there's still an issue with the wallet (that's when another fork appeared out of nowhere).

Now things are looking good because of the difficulty being stabilized.

Since this was brought up, I would like to ask the community of version an unofficial question: If - and I'm putting a really big IF here as I should also consult with the rest of the admin team members of zeuspool, we decided to take the development of version and try to fix potential wallet issues (after asking the developer of course), would anyone be interested in joining the team and assist with various tasks?
The coin really needs good marketing and promotion and we need to take decisions about the future of version in the digital world.
There's much work to be done and I hope that the community of VersionCoin will not let it down and assist as much as possible.

So I'm asking all of you: Will you help us?

I have 16k in my wallet. It syncs till about 3.5k blocks everyday (my guess it is about what zeuspool makes each day). New wallets (0 mined) work just fine and syncs 100%. Frustrated. Looks like Dev is in Hibernation, or found fatal error.  Is this old wallet with all found blocks permanently lost ? Any ides what to do?

Wallet complaining about checkpoint now.  I think it might be boned

Keep mining and holding it

difficulty is rising fast, any news?

Dev, we really need to know you did not left us alone in this hostile cryptoworld.

Anyone able to explain what is going on with POS?  Several thousand coins have drained out of my wallet and show no sign of returning.  Is it simply that blocks are moving very slowly now?

Why does the wallet look so horrific and unprofessional?

staycrypto you not  answer  any more.

You are asking two different questions and you make it look like it is one.
Transferring funds from your pool account to your wallet is pretty straight forward and I believe you already did that with success.

That leaves the question on how to sync your wallet.
First of all, stop your wallet (close the program). Just to be on the safe side, wait about a minute.
Follow the instructions bellow (taken from the last update post from staycrypto) and monitor your wallet while it re-downloads the blockchain.
If it fails (you get stuck to a lower number) repeat the process till it finishes. There are still some wallets online that have another fork and if those wallets don't do the procedure that is described bellow, they will may cause problems to others (like with you sebalino) and of course their own wallets will be out of sync.

How you can send coins from pool into wallet.Wallet out of sync 90668 block , pool at 139283 block.Please simple explanation.Thanks

Ops, I forgot about the fee (I had it there so miners would understand that it was for testing purposes).
It has been corrected and thank you for letting us know
