I haven't found a block in a few days, does that have something to do with the 1.2.1 update?

Also interesting, it seems as though the majority of the hashing power for Burst lies with a few individuals and forks happening because of outdated wallets by them.

Im back on Burst.ga US pool...everything working great now.
My other pool was  pool.burstmining.com( beta), and it is still 59798 as the other is 59812.

My guess is that an outdated node (or many) was the link between two subsets of the network and these 2 subsets started building their own chain.

I guess the longest chain will win and the forked chains will have to revert to the longest one. I am not sure how that is handled by burst core.

my guess too, but i don't know either. Anyways, i've stopped my 3 wallets now - no need to put work into a blockchain that is behind and with lower hash rate. when i got out basetarget was 4.8mln at height 597798

i'll rename the burst_db on one of them, and try to start it with a copy of the 1.2 database from before i updated some days ago. who knows, perhaps it will go get the best blockchain. worth a try.


It can't hurt to try, we'll see how the situation develops.

My chain on 59813, 2893829

The longest chain should win yes. I haven't seen an issue such as this with burst before so unfortunately I cannot help either :/

EDIT: Obligatory poor joke: vbcs broke the chains Tongue

Hahaha ..  you found me!!  Tongue  Grin

Hrm.... the network is somehow fucked or forked or something....
Half the pools I go to are stuck on block 793 and not finding anymore blocks, while other pools I go to are working on block 802 and seem to be finding blocks fine....


my wallets are now working on block 59797


others report being over 59800 already

i think we have forked, this matches well with my miner, which reports basetarget at 4652312 which is much higher than what it used to be last few weeks, as i vaguely remember it, we should be between 1mil and 2mil, not 4.6 mil.

anyone having wallets that are on 59800+ and what basetarget do you have?


59809

basetarget 2657240

I see 59806 and basetarget 2362468

okay, seems like you have the chain with the most processing power behind it.

Any suggestions on how i can shift over? or do you know if the wallets will figure it out by themselves at some point?   i'm all 1.2.1 on all 3 pc's

burstcoin.eu seems out of sync right now!!!

i can read 59793


i can read 59794 now!!!

Yes, I cannot see my outgoing TX for the Lottery on Burstcoin.eu.

all my 3 wallets on 3 machines, 1.2.1 are having problems with a block, however it seems like they are only printing out an exception and then continuing to work. the printout :

Code:

it seems the problem started somewhere between block 59761 and 59771

all 3 wallets on all 3 different machines give the same error. i would assume something got in via the network, that the software stumbles upon.


That error was caused from a miner that had outdated version. If you restart the wallets you probably will be good

but do you mean there are somebody who is mining in solo with old wallet?
and this cause the fork?

This is very risky

i hope dev can implement a petch to avoid this in futures...

Yes, everyone has to update to the latest version 1.2.1. Else the AT will cause them to "die". Burstdev gave a lot of time to update to the latest version.
Ive been on latest 1.2.1 for 3 days..all was fine until 1/2 hour ago

trying to sync with 1.2.1...

i already have updated wallet when it was released...

i will report here...
