Yes thanks PrometheusX; I hope your health situation is not too severe and you're getting better.

I downloaded the data folder you'd posted and (at first) thought that had all worked fine. Wallet caught up to the current block fairly quickly and I'd unlocked it for staking. But then it was just sitting there and, after many hours, no staking seemed to be happening. Checked the staking stats and it said I was a full day away from receiving any reward, which I thought was odd because I was receiving them right up until my wallet suddenly went out of sync about a week ago and it didn't make sense that I was needing to wait so long for newly staked coins to come in.

Then I realised that I only had about 2% of my BTX balance! Hadn't even noticed as I was just glad to see the wallet caught up to the latest block. The transaction log was still showing everything, including the rewards I received around 7th July before all this difficulty started. I checked my address on the blockchain and it was still showing the full balance I was expecting (thank goodness). So I closed the wallet, waiting for it to be completely shutdown and recopied my wallet.dat from backup. This time upon running it again I had about 15% of my balance, so it was still not right.

Decided to go to a previous backup version of wallet.dat. Now my full balance is there and it's started staking again almost immediately.

What a whole lot of kerfuffle! This is one of the reasons this stuff is still so unready for prime-time. Only that I've had a bit of experience and was astute enough to have kept multiple wallet.dat files going back in time was I able to get this resolved. A regular user who might not be aware of all this under-the-covers plumbing would have far more difficulty getting a situation like this resolved and upon seeing their balance severely reduced would probably panic too.

Given the chain takes so long to catch up (for both my experience and what MCDev is reporting) I'm thinking we need an entry in the OP to go to a page on the website that has latest files for syncing and instructions on how to do it.

THANKS PrometheusX!!  Mine is still syncing, it's @ 365789, 11 wks.  I'm going to let it keep going while I work on the new web page.

Sorry , i have currently health problems.
Here a current zip of a full syncd Windows Data Folder at currently Block 483696
http://download.coin-info.net/btx-windows-datafolder-483696-2016-07-17.zip

And for those who wanna sync by themself with a bootstrap file
http://download.coin-info.net/bootstrap.dat-483696-2016-07-17.zip

I hope it will help u and for the case that i forget to upload a new zip, pls write me a PM

Just checked and it's at blk 321915 and 15wks out.  Hopefully it will finish tonight or tomorrow... Trying to get a skeleton website set up for it.  Nothing like racing against the clock

Well if you started from scratch that's still way faster than mine was going. I picked up one of the last bootstraps PrometheusX put up and it had me at about 315,000 to start off. Then it took me about 24 hours just to get to about 328,000! So it was going to be weeks to fully catch up. Hopefully yours will maintain same pace and you'll have it up to current block within next 24 hours. Thanks.

The windows wallet is still syncing,  22wks to go blk 310233

Thanks MCDev. That will be great and help people to get their wallet's resynced if needed without needing to wait for them to catch up the entire chain.

We should always have this capability (and the relevant downloadable files available) as standard on these projects. There are many reasons why someone may need to start fresh and bootstrap the blockchain.

RenegadeMan - I sent you a pm but figured I would post the reply here also.  I was able to get a 2012R2 VM setup during my lunch hour, and the Windows Qt started syncing at about 5pm ET.  Hopefully the wallet till be synced very late tomorrow night or Saturday morning.  I'm planning on doing the same for BTX that I started doing for Sling and is to create a zip of the wallet data directory for both the Windows and *Nix wallets.  That way, ppl can pull the zip, follow a couple of steps and be synced in 1 to 2 hours in the worse case.  Right now for Sling, I;ve been uploading the files to GitHub until I get the websites finished up.  I plan on doing the same for BTX.


Thanks
MCDev

Not sure what's happened for you Diggio. I was previously having a lot of syncing problems with the v2120 Windows wallet, but am no longer experiencing them. Interestingly though I only have 4 connections (and I have all the nodes that have ever been noted listed in my .conf file) but it's working fine and I'm on the latest block.

You can also use the block explorer at http://blox.btx.rocks/ to check what the latest block is.

I don't know why but that link for the wallet download in the OP is going to an IP address (http://85.214.95.177/btx-uploads/BitcoinTX-v2120-win.zip). The hosting company has probably reconfigured servers. Someone needs to put the domain name address in there instead.

PrometheusX,

Have been staking well for months and suddenly, the Windows wallet hung again at block 404346 (C-CEX is now at 406182) so it's 28 hours behind. Have 14 connections so that shouldn't be an issue.

Is there a place to get current Windows blockchain files? Are you aware of any forks? Also noticed the wallet link in the OP is broken.

Yes, de-listing notice on the BTX page for C-Cex is gone now. Thanks to you and anyone else that did some buying.

My wallet is working pretty well now (albeit with only 4 or 5 active connections). Still staking away with the occasional decent size stake reward coming through.

It will be nice to see some plans announced and some new releases worked on. I know that you're just in the background MCDev (along with PrometheusX and others) and busy with things at the moment. This project still has great potential though so I'm not selling any time soon and eagerly await the next steps.

We should be good as soon as the page is refreshed.  We had 8.66 BTC in volume yesterday and it hasn't changed.  I did manage to pick up some more to be used for promotions and such later.

Up for delisting on c-cex, you may want to rustle up some market activity to stay on the exchange,

Nope, we are still working at BTX
But we have found an problem in the Masternode code and we dont wanna release a new Client with that code again
The bad thing was that we had a new client that was 99% finishd
But what do u want, not finishd clients with bugs or waiting a lil bit longer and get a stable and good client

And our dev also has changes in his day job, so he cant work at the coin the whole time
Pls stay patient, we are working and do our best to get BTX on the right way

No news! Developers have escaped! 

Nothing new

Is this everytime when u start the client ?

In my wallet error. What to do?
09:48:21

CDB : Error -30974, can't open database (code -1)

Put your reservebalance to 999999999  disable coincontrol and wait until the stake coins mature, 31 blocks in a normal stake, 24 hous in a lucky stake. then  send them to the desired adress, first move 1 coin to test, then move them in blocks of less than 600k, I had the same trouble in the past moving more than 600k.

I am on the correct chain (if comparing my wallet's latest block to C-Cex's wallet status is still confirmation of correct chain) and finally have a synced wallet too. Am receiving staking rewards again also.

However, for some reason I can't send coins to another address. After going through the send process (even using coin control to select the BTX I want to send from a specific address) upon entering my passcode for the encrypted wallet it simply returns back to the send screen showing the address and amount I've entered as if I haven't clicked on send yet. There's no transaction and no deduction from my balance.

Perhaps I have something else not set properly?
