Lots of coins got hit on the games/faucet and i've shut down the whole thing until i can resolve the security exploit smartypants found.
Around 0.5 BTC where stolen, not a big loss... but whatever...

I like it. I will be using it on my website and will pm you when its incorporated.
Last night before I went to bed I was checking out the biggest gainers on my CryptoSpecs app and guess who was at #1 with a 945% 24-hour increase?
I'll tell you who, Hawaiicoin, that's who!

Working with HashEngineering Inc. They made Quarkcoin and several other wallets for android and we look forward to our next big announcement coming soon! Project HICoupon Is underway!

I did all that, re-downloaded the chain and my transferred coins still aren't showing up in the wallet. Is there a blockchain explorer of some sort?
They're there now... The transaction went through!
All seems to be well now in HawaiiCoin land.

Hmm... I did a transaction last night to test things out and the funds never made it to my new wallet.

I am using wallet v0.8.6-17-g912b240-beta
Can someone else try a (small) transaction and see if it goes through? Bittrex says the funds were transferred successfully.
Thanks

Confirmed. Up to date at block 20009. 
Congrats & job well done.
Also, this coin developer / entrepreneur Devon Read said on David Seaman's most recent podcast that he thinks there is a demand in Hawaii for its own currency... I haven't heard much about this to be honest, but I am not exactly in the know when it comes to the latest in the sovereignty movement.

Privanon pool shows 2 blocks mined in last 15 minutes. Thanks for bearing with us folks...HIC lives on!!!
Everyone please update your wallet immediately by going to hicoin.org and clicking on your choice of OS wallet.
We think we've fixed it.

Our fellow HICers,
We are sorry for the inconvenience that the shift to rediff at block 20k has caused us all. I am here to assure you we are working on a solution as fast as we can. We've been looking into the issue and at this time do not have an ETA on a fix. Yes, the blockchain is stuck at height 20,005 with a diff of 2,500 and it hurts...We've been cranking away for 4 days now trying to release that block.
Stay tuned for updates. We assure you...WE WILL NOT LET THE COIN OR BLOCKCHAIN OR ANY OF YOUR HARD WORK (AND ELECTRICITY) GO TO WASTE!!!

I was thinking the same thing about Hawaii's ties to gambling...hmmm...
The one decent BTC sports gambling site I saw thats currently up and running has a monthly membership fee... There's got to be better ways to incorporate coin gambling into sports, and there's still a lotta room for new business.
Maybe we can incorporate some Counterparty or NXT-like system where you can place wagers on football games (and women's volleyball, why not) in a decentralized fashion.. Generation of tokens that are cashable in HawaiiCoin. But then you also have to teach everybody how to use Counterparty... Unless you can streamline it all through a snappy website, which I think is possible.
Then there's the whole legality issue. While the feds have been taking a lax stance towards internet gambling in general recently, there stands a chance that wagering on college football with Hawaiicoins will be considered real gambling at some point. Its gonna be really, really tough for the legislators here (or anywhere for that matter) to nail down the specifics of the law so I don't see it as a real concern for a couple years at least.
I also heard HawaiiCoin got a shout out on the radio the other day, during a segment when the DJs were talking about cryptocurrencies for some reason. Big ups!
PS -- hope the fix is going well!!
seems like the sourcecode is beeing worked on ...
https://github.com/hawaiicoin/hawaiicoin/commit/577aececc7f28d754e05151523b56db0bb0c9e14#diff-25d902c24283ab8cfbac54dfa101ad31
so dev should make official timeline for fix etc ...
beeing open about shit gone wrong / problems is the only sane way to handle a trust crisis ... well if you want to continue a coin ...
so basicly good news ... dev is working of fix.
But he should say so .. ^^

Guys, don't panic over the problem. I'm sure the team is working on it as fast as they can.
The coin has had a few teething problems before and they've always taken care of them and then posted an update here after they were done fixing the issue.
