Isnt POW supposed to end at some point?
PoW ends at block 525960 according to the stats tab at the wallet.

Accumulating nicely at Bittrex btw  Grin

According to the original plan PoW is supposed to last for about 6 months. With launch on the 25th of December iirc then pow will end about the 25th this month.

Using the past 24 hours as a baseline, EGC is doing 2790 blocks per 24 hours according to my latest sample. Yes PoW ends at 525960. We are at ~473700 now, so 52260 remain in PoW. This works out to 18.7 days if the 2790 per day holds true. That would place the current projection for PoW to end on about the 30th of this month as of now if all variables remain constant.

PoS blocks make this not an exact projection and more of an estimation. Fewer people staking results in fewer PoS blocks. More people staking results in more PoS blocks. For this projection to drift only 5 days over a 6 month period is understandable. I used 2880 as the projected number of blocks to come up with the 6 month estimate, allowing for 1 PoS block and 1 PoW block every minute on average. It looks like we will be just shy of that and stretch just past 6 months by a few days. Again, all variables remaining constant.

Just some brainstorming, but what if Evergreen had an online shop for solar and renewable energy related stuff.
Paying with EGC would give you some reward like eg. a reduced price.
It isn't that hard to accomplish (thinking of dropshipping) and it would give EGC a real world usage.
What do you think about it?

being in the online sales business for some years i would say thats a great idea. but dont we have to establish a payment gateway first?
If we gonna take this serious, we could try to be accepted as a coin at eg. https://www.coinpayments.net and I think that that isn't so hard to establish.

Hey Evergreencoin community!

I almost never post, but i just want to compliment the incredible proffesional attitude of the dev.
I have seen so many coins go down by poorly handling problems, it's very refreshing to see a community live through it!

I've been a long time holder from the start and i'm positive this coin with community has great potential.
The buying pressure on Bittrex is looking great, also a nice buy wall around 290 sat. I think it's a great time to buy! I accumulated to 250k and i will hold for sure at these prices.
Hopefully we get back to a more realistic price range soon.

Keep up the good work dev!


nice when the dev gives himself compliments due new accounts ...

Hey !

Hows going ?

I think the "solar-miner" is not perfectly named, as it basically "only" stakes your coins, so doesnt really mine them. Even tho it sounds great for marketing but people could understand that wrong.

A solar miner for that price would be insane tho, but hardly possible for small money :/

Just an idea tho, no offence meant.

Hi allinbox,

Yes, you are correct. We want "average people" to understand the device. These people, however removed from the technical side of crypto, do understand "mining" as "gaining". For that reason and that staking is technically mining, processing transactions and maintaining the blockchain for which a reward is given, we felt "EGC solar miner" would be easier for non-technical people to understand.

Yes, an actual solar PoW miner would be very expensive. Also it would not tolerate power outages very well and maintain the same accurate projection of the return. This way we can market it as, "earning 7%" so long as the sunlight doesn't stop for more then 30 days. That and EGC's PoW will end in about 20 days. An actual solar powered EGC PoW mining device would be soon useless.

Technically speaking, it will be mining via PoS mining (aka minting) and earning at a projectable rate, 7%.

No offense taken! Smiley


Ok then, just clearly state it so nobody will buy it because he didnt get how it works. From marketing view surely should work way better tho (;

Meanwhile at Bittrex  Wink


in yobit higher prices @690



Yobit lives its own life.
They take weeks and months to resynch wallets, if they even bother to.

I asked the mod yesterday. He answered "No information".

I have successfully deposited and withdrew EverGreenCoin from Bittrex. They are back on the correct blockchain.


I am now having issues resyncing wallet 1.2.1. for Windows (running W 8.1 64Bit)

Stuck on block 457283.

Do I need to completely download the blockchain again on version 1.2.1?
Any advice or recommendations will be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

Portdavenport Wink



Hi Portdavenport,

If you are stuck that far behind (current block height is 464768), I would say you have peered with wallets that are in an incorrect fork still. To correct from this, yes please do a complete resync. There is a bootstrap at block height 460949 (6th Jun 2016 12:41:29) that will expedite resyncing for you. But we want to be sure you do not peer with these same peers again. Follow these steps:

1, Close your EverGreenCoin wallet.
2, Navigate to %appdata%/EverGreenCoin within Windows Explorer. (otherwise stated, C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\EverGreenCoin)
3, Delete everything in that folder except your wallet.dat file.
4, Download the bootstrap compressed archive.
5, Extract the bootstrap.dat from within the downloaded bootstrap.zip into that same folder you just deleted everything except your wallet.dat file.
6, Launch your EverGreenCoin v1.2.1 wallet.

Bootstrapping the blockchain will take about 2 hours, depending on your system. The splash screen will show this entire time. It has not frozen, do not ctrl-alt-del kill it. Allow it to run its course. If you are curious to see the how far it has progressed, you will notice a file called blk0001.dat in that data directory we have been working in. That file will be increasing in size steadily. When it reaches the same size as the bootstrap.dat file, bootstrapping is complete. Your EverGreenCoin wallet will appear now and get new peers from the seednodes and download the remaining 2 days of the blockchain.

I hope that helps Portdavenport. If you have any questions or concerns, do not hesitate to ask or state them.

Dear EverGreenCoin,

Thank you for this data and information.
I'll seek to implement it in the next 72 hours.

Seeing as my EGC investment is as large as the Foundations, I really appreciate your support.

Kindly,

Portdavenport

Bought me a chunk of EGC at Bittrex and transfer to my qt wallet was as fast as can be.
It seems that the forking probs have come to an end, so now it's back to the upward trend that EGC used to be at.
Time for the remaining goers to be rewarded for their patience  Grin

I do honestly hope you are all rewarded greatly, and rightfully so.

Thank you all kindly for the continued patience these issues have required and all the help in restoring order. By no means could it have been done without you all.

EverGreenCoin guy, i fixed my wallet boostaped, works so owesome now.

Minting on Aikapool, but i have to say my hash rate is 4,5mhs, but on pool i see average 3-3,5 is aikapool a bit sharestealing ?

My rig is just 2x 750 Ti oc edition, and 2 more cards on their way to upgrade my rig Smiley

No, they are not stealing from you. It is common for pools to show a different hashrate then what you may see at your miner directly. Think of it as two measurements of time, taken at two different points in time with latency distorting the measurements. Aikapool is very trusted. I am certain your hashes and shares are not being stolen.

Glad to hear your wallet is functioning as it should and thank you for mining EverGreenCoin!

EDIT: Congrats on your forthcoming upgrade! Smiley
