I like Hotcoin!

But I have a few questions for the developer.

1. Do you plan to enter the GPU-mining again?
2. If there will be only the CPU Mining, why not create pools for mining using processors?

The more services will be created for the coin, the more attractive it will be, and its a problem with the exchange market will be resolved quickly.

so it is mined GPU/CPU

I run wallet for some time, then my computer error messages : Runtime Error !
All my pc is same error .

Me runtime error was show when upgrading to 1.06 (and not delete old wallet.dat) but, after wallet restart no more
runtime error. If you still have runtime error. please stop wallet (if working) delete debug.log and run again wallet.
maybe new information in debug.log describe your problem.

If not please contact with developer.

Best regards.

windows daemon - use for what ? I don't know the purpose of it ??

I think (not try) it is command line wallet similar to linux hotcoind.
If you want run wallet without GUI (for example in Linux server)
you can use deamon instead QT version. Command line have lower hardware requirements and you don't need QT library.

Of course on Widows PC it does not matter. But some are ninjas console ;]

Looked into the debug log and it said i was finding block too fast Huh Huh Huh Huh

Weird.

"Mining too fast" is normal. Because network accept only 1 block per 2 minutes (in all network).
So blocks mined, between this time are rejected. This element of luck ;]

difficulty is very low, so you can break a lot of blocks.
To complicate digging, are accepted only blocks every 2 minutes.

Normal is the breakdown (accepted) 2-3 blocks on 100-200 attempts.
Sometimes (as less people digginig or you're lucky +100% ) were able to dig more blocks

Best Regards.

To start new wallet and transfer coins from old wallet to new one.

Assuming you have 2 operating system on the same computer as i do.

1. go into other OS and download new wallet and let it sync, etc.
2. copy the address for new wallet.
3. go into original OS with old wallet and send the coins to the new address.
4 wait until coins are received in the new wallet and when it does transfer all files for new wallet into the old wallet, deleting the old one.

No beers involved but you may drink whisky.

What the point of spending time updating the wallet when the coin isn't being mined.

Tried solo mining for a bit and got 0 block and 100 rejects.

cgminer.exe --scrypt -u x -p x -o http://127.0.0.1:9888 --queue 0 --scan-time 1 --expiry 1 --gpu-platform 0 -d 0 -w 256 -v 1 -I 11 -g 1 -l 1  --thread-concurrency 6144

Check debug.log in folder ....user\...\Hotcoin maybe you find reason.
Common problems:
- your time is not set properly  (info in debug.log blocks mined to early or to late).
- you are not connected to network (no peers).


If your debug.log is very big (and therefore difficult to read) you can delete it (or only remove content file) .
Will be re-created after hotcoin-qt.exe start.

Time in debug.log is in GMT (UTC).


1. Sync your computer time example according with http://time.is or use NTP. It is very important step.

2. Check how many peers (computers) is connected to yours wallet, if little or none.

BTW you consider doing this. You can open your wallet Help->Console
and put getpeerinfo to get adresses connected to your Wallet.
You can copy this adressess list and compare to bellow and add to this list addresses from your wallet.
But this is not needed Smiley

addnode=222.77.179.157

this is for good start. Remember about restarting hotcoin wallet.
BTW If RPC client (minerd, cgminer) is connecting to wallet hotcoin process not close. You must stop cgminer first.
 

Wait few minutes until (3-5 or more) peers will connected to your wallet.
Currently I have 8 active connections.

3. If 1. and 2. not help and you don't find good reason in debug.log, please try
    CPU mining (CPU is very preferred):
   a) setgenerate true in Help->Console
   b) minerd (or similar) insted
       ex. minerd -o 1.2.3.4:9888 -u x -p x -t4
       -t is number of threads (according to CPU specification -
          BTW if you have poor cooling CPU better is decrease number of threads - check CPU temperature)


I don't have GPU to cgminer.

Network accept one block per 2 minutes so you must have many luck to dig Smiley but it is working.

ffs this more trouble than it is worth, every other coin you can copy the wallet.dat into the new app folder?

I think I might wait till 1.07 is released and the dev comes up with a better solution.

Structure Wallet.dat was changed because was added sending optional messages to transfer.

Unfortunately, by this update is difficult ...
Turpomann wrote a nice tutorial that should be manageable for all.


you should just remember to backup wallet.dat.

@Turpomann Thank for details information forr Windows 7 user.

I use external computer on Linux.

First please sync your old windows wallet and make backup wallet.dat.


On linux:
./hotcoind listaccounts

next we create new account ex name update
./hotcoind getnewaddress update

return is your transfer address ex HEXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXWY

Check is it done
./hotcoind listaccounts

If you lost your new account address

./hotcoind getaddressesbyaccount update
[
    "HEXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXWY"
]

Now you must transfer from windows wallet to new address HEXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXWY
You probably pay tx fee . Probably you should send yours HOT in few small part (transaction size limit).

After transfer you can check
./hotcoind listtransactions

ans see when you get 6 confirmations

./hotcoind listaccounts
show your balance after transactions was confirmed.

now please install new version wallet on Windows

If it is done, we can send money form linux to windows by
./hotcoind sendfrom LINUX_WALLET_ACCOUNT_NAME WINDOWS_HOTCOIN_NEW_ADDRESS 123.4567890

ex.

./hotcoind sendfrom update HEXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXWY 220.22

you can split your transaction into few part.

Wait until windows wallet not confirm transactions 6 times .. now
you can encrypt your wallet and make backup wallet.dat in to safe place

Thank you, my friend.  Wink

1.06 download link: http://dl.hot-coin.org:90/1.06/hotcoin-qt.zip

Important Warning:  You must back up the wallet.dat.

1.06 version update wallet.dat struct, support transaction message.

Upgrade steps:
1, open two computers, one running old version, one run version 1.06
2, send old version's coin to the version 1.06 wallet address
I think it's not good idea to break wallet.dat compatibility. This makes upgrading to new wallet very complicated, imho.

Here is my very detailed instructions(It's drinking game too!) on how to do it with one Windows 7 computer. Please, excuse my bad engrish.

1. Drink couple beers. Backup your wallet.dat to usb stick or to some other folder in your hdd, create many backups just in case. You can find your wallet.dat in: C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\hotcoin
2. Delete your hotcoin folder in Roaming. Again, make sure you made backup of your wallet.dat before you do it. Drink beer.
2. Go to your hotcoin-qt 1.05 folder (example: C:\hotcoin-qt)
3. Copy your wallet.dat to your hotcoin-qt 1.05 folder. (optional: drink beer or two)
3. Right click hotcoin-qt.exe and choose Create shortcut.
4. Right click hotcoin-qt.exe - Shortcut and choose Properties.
5. Use -datadir= parameter in Target line (example: C:\hotcoin-qt\hotcoin-qt.exe -datadir=C:\hotcoin-qt)
6. VERY IMPORTANT: Start Wallet with hotcoin-qt.exe - Shortcut and let it synch. (Only use shortcut from now on, never the .exe file anymore. If you start with the .exe file, program creates hotcoin folder to C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\ again. We don't want that! If you accidentally start with the .exe, close the program and delete hotcoin folder in Roaming again. Drink couple beers if you want.)
7. When synching is done, copy your hotcoin-qt folder to somewhere else (example: D:\hotcoin-qt)
8. Now you should have two hotcoin-qt folders on your hdd. (example: one on C:\ and other in D:\)
9. Go to your newly copied hotcoin-qt folder(example: D:\hotcoin-qt)
10. Modify shortcut to target that folder. (example: D:\hotcoin-qt\hotcoin-qt.exe -datadir=D:\hotcoin-qt)
11. Download hotcoin wallet 1.06. Extract it to your D:\hotcoin-qt folder, let it overwrite all. (optional: drink beer)
12. Delete wallet.dat file in your new D:\hotcoin-qt. Start Wallet with shortcut. Encrypt your new wallet now. You might want to drink beer now, go ahead. Hell, drink two if you feel like it.
13. Copy your new wallet in D:\hotcoin-qt to somewhere safe. Do not overwrite you backed up old wallet! Create new backups for your new wallet.dat! Drink beer.
14. Start your new Wallet again. Copy receive address to clipboard. Close new wallet.
15. Open your old Wallet in C:\hotcoin-qt. Remember to do it with shortcut. Open Send page and paste your new wallet address to Pay to: line and send your hotcoins to your new wallet. Close program and drink beer.
16. Open new Wallet in D:\hotcoin-qt and see your received coins from the old wallet. Might take some time, so drinking a few beers is not a bad idea at all.
17. When you are sure that you have received all your coins from the old wallet, you can delete all of your old wallet backups and keep only the new wallet version backups. You may delete your old wallet folder in C:\ now.
18. Drink few beers and go to bed.  Cheesy

Thank you for writing these tutorials.

If you have two computers(or use vmware to make a vps), one running an old wallet, one running 1.06 wallet,
sent coin from the old wallet to the 1.06 version wallet.
