The way to get past block 670 is to run it with in cmd with zcoin-qt.exe -reindex

There's a bad Zerocoin transaction in that block that's causing the connections to drop but the reindex lets you push past that.

Once that is done, if it hangs again, just close the zcoin-qt and open it up again (but don't reindex) and it should progress. The situation should get better as more nodes update to the new version.

We're looking into the issue once the fork is done.

@djm34 has released his Windows binary builds for his miners both for Nvidia (ccminer) and AMD (sgminer)

Nvidia miners: https://github.com/djm34/ccminer-msvc2015/releases/
AMD miners: https://github.com/djm34/sgminer-msvc2015/releases

djm34 was engaged by us to do this so his binaries should be clean.

@Tourgasm, a community member has also has released 64 bit version for the Windows

https://github.com/Tourgasm/xzc-ccminer/releases/tag/1.8.4x64

For cpuminer, @aizensou our dev has released this but no binaries:

Help me please, i won't deposit my XZC to my mac wallet until i know what is that "no block source available" thing.

What is the inflation model of ZCoin?

There are currently circa 1 million coins. How many will there be in 12 months?

Thanks

I downloaded the latest wallet release and needed to re-sync the wallet.  Seems to be stuck at 670 block height, anyone else experiencing this, and how did you resolve it?

I have deleted the appadata\Roaming\Zcoin folder multiple times to try and get beyond block 670

Running windows 10 pro 64-bit with release v0.2.0 qt wallet for windows

Should be much more if you are bench-marking the new cpuminer for the 20500 fork

If you are talking the old miner, then those numbers sound about right

your i5 gets 200 kh/s? in the terminal on mine it reads 10-11 H/s

Apparently not worth it for any AMD type of GPUs with the current miner.

Basically a CPU is faster than most of the AMD GPUs.

RX 470 gets like 200-250KH/s which is same as an i5 CPU.

While an old GTX 960 gets 500KH/s

no block source available my wallet says. MAc computer.
