Ok, upgraded to Grain 1.2 without any issues.  The network traffic is still there, but it is due to nodes that are stuck on block 35583 and something like that.

I do not support any of these 3 coins in my avatar
I just encrypted my wallet and made a backup but now I don't know how to unlock it for minting lol.  Is there something I can do where I can unlock it when I first open the wallet using the passphrase and it automatically locks again when I close it? and needing passphrase for transactions?

To unlock your wallet for minting go to the help tab -> debug -> console and type 'walletpassphrase *password* *time* true'. For time I just put 9999999999 so it stays unlocked until you close your wallet. The true at the end only unlocks it for minting so you will need to enter password to send coins.

Version 1.2 Released. Version 1.2 is not a mandatory upgrade, but you better upgrade it to make the whole network more secure. Version 1.2 has the latest checkpoints. Download links and source in github are both updated.

You better give me instructions for doing the upgrade Bosian.  Hopefully I don't make as painful as it was last time lol

Thanks Shocked

And links on first post after 'Downloads (Version 1.2)' are bad.

Yeah, you need to click on download source code to get the new version...

wow difficulty is @ 4.5 on fork??

**back down to 1.8, sum1 must be soloing with big power

network hashrate is growing steadily, this is great for GRA, more hashpower = more supporters

Sometimes puts the longer standing supporters out of mining action though Sad

check your wallet, I sent u a gift Cheesy

Hey Jolly, I just got home and thank you very very much!  Wink

Thanks for your friendly reply.
Yes, the issue (or rather: paradigm) you mentioned is clear to me - and I value anonymity and the de-centralized approach. But there are a few points that I would like to say about that:
1. Such update feature / notification feature should NEVER be mandatory, only optional for the type of User I mentioned who will gladly give up part of anonymity for convencience / peace of mind
2. The network itself will remain de-centralized. Most coins already have a centralized approach when it comes to software-distribution, though: GitHub or their homepage. So an autoupdate-feature would not change that
3. if the wallet actually only transfers the eMail-address + the QT version (and not addresses etc.), the anonymity is not much less than in e.g. this forum. Many people use their real names (I do, for example), many post their addresses, some use their regular eMail addresses etc. I am almost sure that if somebody would do a big datamining trying to find personal information on a given user account (whose coin address is known because he used e.g. a giveaway thread), he would most likely succeed. So in theory, Cryptocoins can be anonymous, but in real life they are rather pseudonomous. And even that is weakened by every piece of information users leave of themselves in the www. So such notification feature doesn't really change much here - as long as (1) remains valid.

Thanks again Smiley

Yes I agree with you. There is a channel in the code, and Litecoin used it to broadcast messages for the mandatory upgrade. I still have reserve to attach email. I think anonymity without any personal info such as email is important. Yes some people don't care, but a lot do. To broadcast a newer version or make the client display certain messages if the code is too old are both good ways and are currently implemented (for example, if the checkpoints are 90 days behind, the client will display "Checkpoints too old please contact developer for a newer version" or something like that.

Anyone have idea what does "Stake" in Wallet mean?  There is around 60K show at balance of my wallet Sad 

What should I deal with these "Stake"?



This is the PoS block generation. Don't worry, it's like PoW mining, will return to your balance after certain time of "maturity", your balance will be added with some "interests".

Noted and thank you very much for your quick respond Smiley

You are welcome Smiley

Ok, I will mine further.

Wallet is working correctly, but I have around 20k unconfirmed grain. It's last payment before the fork.  How can I fix this?

Try this..

HELP > DEBUG WINDOW > CONSOLE  then type repairwallet.

gl

I take it everyone missed this ? Roll Eyes

I saw it and used it then, but after I got my wallet all working again I didn't run it and assumed my coins were gone. I didn't want to do anything to screw the wallet up once I finally got it sorted out Wink

thanks for your help

That pool has problems at the moment, on the wrong chain or not sync'ed I believe.  I would like to try it out once they sort it out.
