DarkCoin-qt gives a different total amount of DRK than the block explorers. When I look at the explorers I can find the "missing" DRK's. They are sent to a different account together with a 15 DRK transaction (I actually did a 15 DRK transaction).

That's because of so called "change" addresses your wallet generates automatically almost everytime you spend, and that are part of anonymity features. They can end up holding a lot of coins, and don't appear directly in the known addresses.

You can list them with "listunspent" in the debug console.

Also, they're the reason why you have to backup your wallet often, as new private keys for those change addresses are generated every time.

ok, but look :
here my mintpall wallet blockchain : http://chainz.cryptoid.info/drk/address.dws?238976.htm
and here my mintpal wallet on site : DarkCoin   DRK   23.28546721   0.00000000   0.00000000   0.00000000

where are the missing DRK ?
Submit a ticket telling them that there is a difference between the balance of your account, and the balance of your assigned address.

MintPal and other exchanges don't use the blockchain to maintain your account, they only use it for deposits & withdrawals, you balance is only maintained in their internal database.
Whenever they make a withdrawal, they will happily take amounts from whichever deposit address.

It's also why you can't use an account on an exchange (and many web wallet services) to bet on services like satoshi dice. Satoshi dice will send back your wins at the address that placed the bet, but for an exchange, that can be any of the deposit addresses.

That's also why if an exchange goes under or messes up its database backups, you can lose a lot, even if they were never hacked, that's what happened to bitomat http://siliconangle.com/blog/2011/08/01/third-largest-bitcoin-exchange-bitomat-lost-their-wallet-over-17000-bitcoins-missing/

i am shure this was discussed earlier... but anyway it is importatn not only for me...
today i was setting up my own wallet on my mac to get my funds from the exchanges for security reasons...
i decided to do the following to secure my wallet.dat. after transfering my coins i formatted 2 USB sticks
than i copied the wallet.dat on the first stick  - and moved the wallet.dat on the second stick...
now there is no wallet.dat on my computer anymore. next time before i start the darkcoin-qt i will move the wallet dat from one of the sticks back in place.
the question i can not answer myself... is moving the file realy moving it or is the wallet.dat still somewhere on my computer... and can be found by an hacker in case he can find a way to get into my mac???
thank you for an anwer that is non technical enough for me



delete the wallet and open the client  to overwrite it with an empty one.. shouldnt be recoverable i think

HELP! Maybe a noob question, but hopefully, someone can help me out:

DarkCoin-qt gives a different total amount of DRK than the block explorers. When I look at the explorers I can find the "missing" DRK's. They are sent to a different account together with a 15 DRK transaction (I actually did a 15 DRK transaction).

For example: I do a -15 DRK transaction:
- 85
+ 15 (to the address I wanted to send it to)
+ 60 (to another address: unknown for me)

Is it possible that DarkCoin-QT does not show all my addresses and that I can still spend the DRK's that er in the "unknown address for me"?

I don't think it will be in the file system anywhere. However it may still recoverable from the hardrive, using recovery software. As long as you have a strong enough password on it nobody should be able to access the coins even if they did happen to get hold of the file.

Why it still "not yet redeemed" since 3:30AM ?

Not yet redeemed means that the coins you sent haven't yet been spent.
If you see the transaction, then the coins have been properly sent as far as the blockchain is concerned.

I think you'd better ask mintpal support (or MintPal-Jay https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/mintpal-jay-238724 here on forum)

In short, it's seems to be much more than a simple clone coin. Kudos to the dev!

Amazon ECC is surely the way to go, whilst keeping the 1000 DRK in an offline wallet, I think I've seen dev say it is, is that right?

Speaking of Amazon masternodes, does anyone know if chaeplin's guide is up to date right now? I'm busy so havent been able to follow any changes to setting up masternodes

https://darkcointalk.org/threads/how-to-set-up-ec2-t1-micro-ubuntu-for-masternode-part-2-3.241/

No, since the latest update, you must also create a masternode private key.

at the beginning of step 15, do this before anything else:

Code:

darkcoind masternode genkey


Save the output you get from this and add it to this part of step 15

Code:
cat >> ~/.darkcoin/darkcoin.conf << EOF
#------------
masternode=1
masternodeprivkey=[output from genkey]
addnode=23.23.186.131
#----------
EOF


I believe that will get you going.

Note: if you already have
Code:
 masternode=1
set in your darkcoin.conf, you will need to change it to
Code:
masternode=0
before the genkey command will work. If you are starting from scratch, you should be fine because the masternode= key isn't defined yet and defaults to =0.

Hope that helps


Well that saves me digging through the thread, thank you so much for that  Grin

No, since the latest update, you must also create a masternode private key.

darkcoind &

darkcoind masternode genkey

darkcoind stop

#------------
masternode=1
masternodeprivkey=[output from genkey]
addnode=23.23.186.131
#----------
EOF


The rest of step 15 should remain the same .
Note: if you already have
Code:
 masternode=1
set in your darkcoin.conf, you will need to change it to
Code:
masternode=0
before the genkey command will work. If you are starting from scratch, you should be fine because the masternode= key isn't defined yet and defaults to =0.

Na Zdorovie!
When DRK hits $100 a masternode will be worth 100,000 bucks
Who will risk running such a server besides security geniuses?

Could this become an issue. will future masternodes require less DRK?

Who can earn $30,000 a month with an investment of $100,000?
