The new wallet is in it's final stages of testing. Please do not use it until an announcement is made. It will be available soon!
"A fix has been implemented to ensure blocks above height 635000 are at 30s intervals."
Fixed, thanks. It should read 60s.
New wallet seems to be released. https://github.com/Max-Coin/maxcoin/releases/tag/v0.9.3-final

So is 0.9.3 safe to use, in a way there is no state-lock once user shuts it down? I haven't upgraded from 0.9.2 cause it is pointless, I must shutdown computer once per day.

What's profit of mining MAX with AMD cards now?
Can I earn back my power fee or not?

I have found a probably cause of the issue and I'm testing a fix now. Apologies for the delay in communication, I've been AFK for a few days.
cool no worries i hope something can be done soon i am waiting myself to reboot my computer
but am stalling so i don't have to re-download the block chain again LOL
it would be good to get disabled markets etc back up too
people have lives i understand.. just popping in for a quick update helps *for now lol

... can we get on with some max coin talk ?
Such as any progress on the wallet update ?
Such as any progress on the wallet update ?
Let's keep this thread positive. Whatever anyone thinks of the developers, they are real, accountable people - a rare occurence in the cryptocurrency world. They have a wallet issue to remedy. Let them get on with it. Some of us want to keep up with easy, accessible progress rather wade through masses of quotation-upon-quotation, amongst which vital news could be obscured.
Yes! Everything looks fine except wallet issue. Let's be positive.

@Wolf0
No you look stupid for quoting me yet again for no apparent reason.
is there some reason you guys HAVE to do that constantly ? it's pretty damn irritating to have to scroll so damn much
and by the way.. grow the fuck up and stick to the topic brat
it's exhausting trying to come here and check out coin activity and sift through comments from trolling little shits trying to mouth me off.
so are you kids done ? can we get on with some max coin talk ?
Such as any progress on the wallet update ?
or..
should we carry on quoting me 1,000 times trying to start petty little arguments in a desperate attempt to one up me ?
you guys are aware this forum is not ABOUT me right ?
feel free to talk about coins.. it won't bother me any

What's going on with MaxCoin? My wallet won't synch.
First, it wouldn't synch, then...
I...
#1] Downloaded and installed 9.2.1
#2] Did resetcheckpoint, checked it with getcheckpoint
#3] Ran my wallet with -reindex
a) (Waited a couple of hours for the blockchain to re-index, and it synched, worked fine.)
#4] Closed my wallet.
#5] Opened my wallet 2 hours later and it won't synch again.

I've re-downloaded the blockchain twice now. Each time it synchs to the most recent block, however, when I close my wallet and reopen it it stays out of synch.
this is a well known problem all of us have and we're waiting for a fix the dev said he's working on..
don't turn your wallet off or as one guy suggested maybe trying syncing to block 60000 or what ever before it finishes syncing
and stop it and back up that block chain folder so you won't have to re-download it again..
OR if this is going to carry on for a long time ? maybe some nice guy can do that and upload it somewhere and share it for everyone ?

glad i could possibly help and maybe prevent someone from getting hacked LOL
i tried to just pass along the info i heard from other guys..
i am not an expert on hacking peoples wallets to steal coins ahhahah

Yes,my wallet can't sync either,i just can't figure out what happened.Dose the dev alive or can someone help me fix this situation?
Try the "resetcheckpoint / getcheckpoint" combination followed by letting maxcoin-qt re-sync as described at
http://maxcoinnews.net/maxcoin-0-9-2-1-release/
Worked for me. Also, here is my complete maxcoin.conf:
# Seed nodes
addnode=maxexplorer.cloudapp.net
addnode=max.suprnova.cc
# Enable RPC
server=1
rpcallowip=*
# RPC information
rpcuser=
rpcpassword=
# Mining
gen=0
par=2
enforcecheckpoint=false
that part i underlined is a severe security vulnerability and will allow the public to rape your ass for coins.
do not EVER use that command in your conf --> rpcallowip=*
Please explain. That command is included in the default maxcoin.conf which is supplied with the Linux source code for every version to date, including the present one, maxcoind/maxcoin-qt 0.9.2.1. If what you are saying is true, then the developer is leaving every Linux user wide open to attack.
*edit* Oh, OK, I see what you're saying. If someone could take control of my router, theoretically they could send a transfer command to my wallet. Not likely given the type of router security that I have. But I can see your point.

The dev on this coin has been busting his ass all along since the coins launch writing code.
no MIA vanishing act for 8 months or something cough cough.. Max Coin
and the guy has a lot more in the works too !
anyway he did that RPC security update a while back for a reason..
some Jackpot users got hit for coins and it's happened before on plenty of other coins
and anytime i mention it i usually get people mouthing me off saying duh.. and it's so common sense i should not have even said it.
well you guys just showed me it is in fact worth saying LOL
what happened in the JPC incident way back was, (so we heard via rumor i guess)
is that some hacker guy had simply collected the IP's from the wallet an easy trivial task
then he simply started trying to connect to them.. you can test your own wallet via your browser with the IP/Port too eh
and from there i dunno.. maybe he just started trying the default user pass combo's until he hit pay dirt.. not sure.
but there is no time out on password attempts i *think.
So a guy could kick back and brute force it as long as it takes until he has access.
and from there coins get stolen.. again i don't know how exactly or what ever but i do know it's been reported and confirmed by a lot of guys.
funny thing is i never even heard of the wild card thing until the jackpot coin wallet update LOL
i always just used localhost ip (127.0.0.1) an old school loopback address
..be safe guys
Thanks for inform. I edited my conf file according to your advice.

This is getting frustrating. 1GH doesn't even allow you to mine using sgminer 5, they only allow their own custom cgminer 3.7.3. Please dev fix this coin so other pools can mine!
why would they care what miner you use ?
your probably doing something wrong..
me i use a custom version of cudaminer i made up.. works fine, always has.
I am not doing anything wrong. Sgminer 5 works without issue on dwarfpool and I would imagine all other pools. Also, just because your Nvidia cudaminer works doesn't mean an AMD with sgminer/cgminer will work properly. There's a few pools out there other than 1GH that only accept shares from a custom miner.
i have plenty of experience working on all miners not just cudaminer/nvidia
and i have used all those pools too and i don't see what your talking about.
your being vague too.. what does "NOT WORK" mean ?
does your miner say shares rejected ? what msg is returned ?
There may be an issue with the sgminer setup and whether it's mining at Keccak 256 vs Kecaak 512
Trust me if there is anything i know about this stuff it's working on miners so i am not a noob
was trying to help you buddy because it's not really possible for a pool to do that.
the most that will happen is you will find some pools may have a tougher hard coded difficulty requirement
which would make it harder to get shares accepted but even that would not give you 100% rejection rates.
i tested that theory out and learned the had ways on a bunch of pools last year with Quark and Securecoin eh.
sorry buy what your claiming is not very believable.. and it's a nasty accusation too LOL
edit:
you said..
Quote
There's a few pools out there other than 1GH that only accept shares from a custom miner.
that is what i have an issue with..
it may be simply that the other miners have not been updated to support the pool (coin) yet.
accusing the pool operator of "Locking out" so speak other miners is not too believable.
Here's an example of a custom miner that only works with a specific pool:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/anngroestlmyriadgroestl-pool-closed-652849
The issue with sgminer 5 and 1GH is that sgminer sits at waiting for work from pools. My config works just fine with other pools except 1GH. It's not a firewall issue either. I can duplicate this issue on multiple rigs. When I download and use the custom 1GH version of cgminer 3.7.3, and use the exact same configuration I use with dwarfpool (substitute the conf setting algorithm : maxcoin for keccak : true) it works without a problem. I also tried setting keccak : true with sgminer 5, but it doesn't matter what I do because it won't get any work from 1GH.
Edit: Now that DwarfPool is back up and running I am happily hashing away with sgminer 5 again
there is no getting through to you is there ? LOL
how many miners have you coded ? i have done lots i know what i am talking about.. believe me or don't ..your problem.
but you accused the pool of dishonest behavior and i think it's made up crap.
go ahead and explain to me on a technical level how a pool can do that in the first place..
i already pointed out how at no time did you even so much as post your config settings.
you simply made a damning horrible accusation against a pool ..a BIG pool with nothing to back it up but "because i say so"
And i am telling you your wrong !
Just because a miner is not updated for a specific coin does not mean the pool is black listing miner programs. (or the user is not running it properly)
and the most likely cause of your problem is YOU and how your using the miner or your using a version not compatible with certain coin.
I said it works on my custom home made miner only i am using and i did nothing special for it to work on 1GH
and i have been on there for months 24/7 and was when the pool was launched !
So you think the pool 1GH is secretly detecting Sgminer v5 and blocking it from working ? LOL oooooook then
That is NOT possible and you would know that if you knew how the code worked.
I know i discussed privately setting up a custom build miner for a well known pool that would do what you said
and i know how it could be done but i doubt anyone ever bothered to do it.. would be a pain in the ass lol
I theorized hypothetically someone could have used part of the stratum protocol as a means of authentication
via the stratum "message" api feature.. but i never did write any code to try it.
ALL miners work by getting work and doing the work and sending it back basically.. there is no other authentication going on.
*IF a miner completes the work properly it will be accepted it's as simple as that.. it won't matter what hardware / software your running.
i tried to help you but all you did is insist on arguing with a vague and rather nasty accusation against the Pool 1GH which i think is unfair.
did you try contacting the pool operator and asking them for help ?

Here's my config:
http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=ZYH8VPCh
It's for an AMD 290x running sgminer-v5-06-06-2014 64-bit for Windows. The same exact configuration does not work for me when I switch pools to 1GH. The problem is it sits there waiting for work from the pool. If I use DwarfPool, it works just fine. I would imagine that most maxcoin miners are probably using the 1GH custom cgminer 3.7.3, and thus they can probably mine on other pools with it, but the OFFICIAL sgminer 5 has issues with 1GH for some reason with my fairly basic config. I was more frustrated than anything regarding the recent fork issues with maxcoin, and that the official sgminer 5 appears to not work with 1GH no matter what I try.
Dude, you did check the date on that thing, right? I stopped compiling SG5 after it stopped working with GCC - that binary is quite old, and it wouldn't be a stretch in any way for it to have bugs, since that was during the early stages of SG5. Since 1GH is obviously not running the same code as DwarfPool, it's only reasonable and rational to consider the idea that perhaps 1GH is just less tolerant when it comes to miner errors.
Now, that's not to say that it's certainly not 1GH's fault, maybe it is, or maybe you just fucked up something - I have no idea. However, I would advise you to be more cautious about publicly posting completely baseless accusations that can very easily damage reputations and cost people a lot of money - that goes double for this community, in which so many people have been victims of scams and other forms of theft that they see evil everywhere. Not to mention, at the very least, it can damage YOUR reputation - 1GH has absolutely no reason to make people use their miner, because there's no money in that; it'll drive people away, while they gain nothing. Add that to the fact you have absolutely nothing to back it up, and it makes you look kinda stupid.
i don't need to compile fuck all it's not my problem.. and sorry its not making me look stupid.
check your facts mouthy idiot(s) and stop making malicious accusations against the 1GH max coin pool with nothing to back it up.
i am always right so keep it up and lets put on a little show case of who is the stupid one here..
Pro Tip: It ain't me
I am not the one who said 1GH is BLOCKING all miners except their own to force users to use their miner programs.
