I have downloaded the last wallet. I am on a Mac and it just doesn't sync. It just freeze up and gets stuck.

If you check the logs, its probably while its looking for new peers or its getting a bad block from a peer, we're working on a new release with faster peer lookup, database and peer banning. We have fully tested the wallet on mac and it synced fine for us.

I downloaded the new wallet and had to re-download the block chain. arr Cry

Two weeks later and the blockchain is still only 79% downloaded and my balance is showing zero although past transactions are getting confirmed. Now I do the repairwallet and now out of nowhere I'm staking but my wallet is not caught up yet? I've never seen that happen before. I'm only 79% downloaded but new staking transactions are coming through. Is that normal? Huh

Hi! I confirm issues with new wallet. I had to resync wallet with fast resync pack and restarted wallet after extracting files to appdata\bitstar folder. My wallet was locked but it somehow managed to stake few thousand coins to wallet. Also resyncing was awful slow. What I did was that I closed my wallet and renamed my wallet.dat to something else and after that restarted wallet. Amazingly it started to resync wallet with great speed. Now I'm waiting to catch up blockchain and after that I will delete current wallet.dat and rename original back to wallet.dat. Let's see how it goes. I think there is some kind of bug in the code that brings up these issues?

It's not a issue or bug, when a new block arrives, be it old or current your wallet checks your inputs against it, so of course a empty wallet.dat will take less processing power as it has no need to check the block. When you swap out your wallet.dat to the current one it will then have to rescan which also does this process, but because it does it in one big check rather than per block (of which we have many due to our fast transactions times), it will always be faster.

No we have already accounted for the initial requirements of liquidity for the ATMs, this is in relation to something else.

Well we're looking to make deals for upwards of 100k at a time.

So if you have at least that amount for sale and can propose a reasonable price then pm me the details.

We are open to those who'd prefer settlement in BTC but fiat is preferred.

So is this for giving liquidity to Global Bitpoint ATM service so people can buy bits from ATM?

I'd like to put out a call for any BITS whales who would be interested in selling some of their holdings for fiat.

Ideally they would be located in the EU but if in the US there would need to be sufficient Due Diligence and KYC to satisfy the strict AML rules.

Please pm me if you are interested, with the details of what you have to offer and for what amount.

How would you define whale on bits?

I think I'm a dolphin, but would like to know the current definition of 'bits whale' too

My wallet stopped working. I deleted everything except wallet.dat and re-installed from the website and still it is giving me the same error message. I can't even open the wallet now. I don't think I did anything different from normal. I'm getting the following in the debug file.

Bitstar version v1.4.0.0-adgr-fs (2014/07/18)

This is a local pc problem, that error is either when another program is using that port or more likely another copy of bitstar is still running in the background, easiest none-techy fix is to restart your pc.

you need to lock the wallet or set reserve balance high, if it trys to sync before the blockchain downloads they will all be orphans so you then have to repair the wallet to get them back. it also slows syncing massively.

So now I keep getting an error 22 while trying to load my wallet, if I delete everything in my appdata\roaming\bitstar folder and load the wallet it will start but I have to load the whole blockchain.

The bootstrap isn't working for some reason, when I delete the bldindex.dat and blk0001.dat and replace with the bootstrap it gives me: can't open database file blkindex.dat, error 22.... Undecided

Trying to update to 1.4 here and whenever I download the .rar file the wallet wont run without the qtnetwork4.dll so I tried extracting all the .dll files into a folder with the wallet and it gives me the blkindex error.......

I had version 1.2 on my computer with some coins in it before I started trying to download the 1.4 and I aside from bitstar I am always paranoid that I'm going to lose my coins somehow when I update to a new version of any cryptocurrency wallet. Could someone maybe give me a scenario where I would accidentally do that? Do the wallet.dats always stay on my hard drive? Maybe some kind of wallet 101 course would set me straight right? Kind of rambling on here sorry...

Anyways what should I do to update to 1.4? Do I need to completely uninstall my last wallet?

Best you make backup of your wallet.dat file and remove all other .dat files / database folder from the %appdata%\Bitstar folder (usually: C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Bitstar )
Download the fast sync package and extract in the %appdata%\Bitstar folder.
You then have an updated ( couple days / a week old ) chain with new blkindex format.

Just make sure you always have a backup copy of your wallet.dat

Then you can run the new 1.4 wallet.

Quote

To all users getting "error loading blkindex.dat " message when updating to 1.4 wallet ... you missed the 1.3 update ;-)
Since 1.3 the blkindex.dat format has changed for faster wallet loading. Use the fast sync package to download most of the chain..

Well it's really weird, I don't even have a %appdata%\Bitstar folder. I'm trying to download on a separate computer (on windows)..even if I extract the wallet and all the .dll files to a folder and then extract the bootstrap to the same folder I still get an error....lol I don't know whats up with it but Ill figure it out eventually.

One question though, you mentioned I should delete ALL OTHER .dat files while backing up my wallet.dat. Speaking in general about wallet backup is it a bad idea to keep .dat files from seperate coins in the same folder. for example wallet.dat for bitstar and a wallet.dat for vericoin in the same folder.

You won't be able to keep to files of the same name in the same folder, what I do is search wallet.dat in %appdata% then select the results and rar them, making sure to tell it to keep full paths, make a hardened rar file and password encrypted.
