Topic: [ANN][1000 SYNC] Proof of Stake now run by BLOCKCHAIN DEVELOPMENT COMPANY - page 279. (Read 816006 times)

Why do you keep messing with your credibility by posting snarky responses? Don't we have enough problems? New code coming! Great! Should maybe leave it at that?

Outstanding - it's great to see someone actually doing something constructive!

While it appears that this fix is aimed at staking issues with small amounts, I believe that more fixes are needed. In order for any kind of recovery to be possible, wallet operation will need to be flawless. It cannot be accompanied by any of the following:

• Wait until syncing gets stuck at block 8200 and restart the wallet
• If you try to restart the wallet too soon after you've closed it (before threads have had a chance to exit), you will see a nasty system message about permissions
• If syncing gets stuck, navigate to \Users\[login]\AppData\Roaming\Sync and delete blah blah blah
• Go to the same folder and insert this bootstrap.dat file

All of the above erode confidence. I wish I contribute actual coding instead of just advice, but it's all I have.

thats all we need to know, squeaky clean.
everything is as dev promised. time for knockers to buy.

so it seems there is 0 SYNC in the genesis block?

Same for block 1.. 0 SYNC
Block 2 shows 5 SYNC

raskul still needs the private key

Just run the same request, same results. Is that all we need to know?

Thanks for running that I'm not at a machine with Sync on it. I bolded the part that everybody wants to know

Regardless of anything, its crazy what those first blocks have influenced.

Not true. Block 0 is often referred to as the genesis block for many coins. Bitcoin generated it on Jan 3rd 2009.

https://blockchain.info/block-index/14849

Block 1 was found 6 days later

https://blockchain.info/block/00000000839a8e6886ab5951d76f411475428afc90947ee320161bbf18eb6048

Its been speculated that during those 6 days Satoshi was testing a number of things and may have even discarded some mined chains before starting again at Block 1.

But as it relates to this coin...there does appear to be a block 0 that is hidden from view. Its hash value (which you can see by looking at block 1) is:

Hard Fork time is set at 2.6.2014 18:00 , since it's a mandatory update you have to compile a new wallet.

You guys have to contact FaSan so that he can switch the explorer to the latest source and move it to a new server since im shutting down my server.

its called genesis block
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Genesis_block

It rounds stakes with too small coins to 0. Very understandable error; the parameters has changed a lot; max coins down to 1000 and max stake in 3 days.

But here is the good news; as a side effect, at the transition time, the algorithm will share stakes generously, until the retarget algorithm rises the difficulty.. (which can, unfortunately, happen quite quickly) so keep your wallets open!

Raskul, come on, stop the FUD
The blockchain doesn't start with block 0, it starts with 1

And for a reference look at other coins, lets say LTC

Do you see a block here?
http://ltc.blockr.io/block/info/0

And here?
http://ltc.blockr.io/block/info/1

Does LTC has a hidden block?


or even BTC

http://blockr.io/block/info/0
http://blockr.io/block/info/1

raskul has a point, block 0 is hidden please reveal it thx.

Please show me where in that fix it mentions anything about block 0, cause I sure as hell dont see it! I see change in staking, and thats it.

I have noticed your name in the changeset, which made me wondering if a previous FUD was real or not. But since you post here i do believe the FUD was a real FUD
Great to see someone doing bugfixes!

About the current bug, it is just blocking wallets sometimes?

block 0 contains 1 transaction: a87d9a593e3e65e96f44be39270e0d0e604e26f1fd567d72306579f3f34c19dd
this transaction is not readable by the client. (and the block-explorer will just always show 404 whenever the daemon sends an error, like for this transaction inside the block).

Thank-you for your work. May I ask where you have come from? Are you an original dev or just a helpful person?

you should really have a little more knowledge about cryptocurrency if you are launching a coin.
sorry, but pleading ignorance makes you look criminal.

please release the private key so that my developer may look at block 0.
I will then reassure the community that block 0 is empty - if it is indeed empty.

respond by PM if you are confident that we will find nothing in block 0.
