2. Initial 3.0.0 wallet had a bug where it caused more than 10% being auto-minted into zPIV.
That issue has since been fixed. Current 3.0.4 RC does not do that and now keeps it at 10%.
But if you are over that, it won't auto-revert excess zPIV back to PIV. So need to do it manually.
e.g. From the Privacy tab, send zPIV back to your address. It will then convert it back to PIV.

so i have to enter my own PIVX adress at Privacy tab for receiving Privacy zPIV into PIVx again?

wallet does not sync so i have to delete whole blockchain?

That's correct for your first question. You can re-spend the zPIV you own back to your own address as PIV.
As for the syncing, run 3.0.4 RC3 and see if you are on right chain. (how to check is also in below post)

Is anyone else receiving rewards without them showing up as transactions? I started staking again yesterday just to test things out, and since then my balance has increased by 14 PIV, yet I only have one transaction for 2.06 PIV listed since October 20 (i.e., before the shit hit the fan). I can't decide if they're staking rewards that just aren't showing up in transactions, or if the system is still sorting out transactions from the past week (i.e., maybe some that were formerly listed as a "?" are being 'found' again or something?).

My unofficial update...
- PIVX PoS network is starting to stabilize with the latest release candidate RC2 wallet. (on github)
- Final stable wallet will be released once ready. Then exchange wallets will go online. ETA soon.

Just FYI:
Since 3.0.0, there are 2 new folders in the data folder. Sporks & Zerocoin.
Make sure to keep a backup of these also when making your own snapshot.
It is for deterministic blockchain databasing and are not private info.
Fresh sync without them can cause going off onto forks much easier.

Also, due to how zerocoin works. Whenever you mint zPIV, the secret key is stored on your wallet.dat at that time.
As it is not associated with any of your existing addresses, your previous wallet.dat backups won't know about it.
So keep a backup of your latest wallet.dat whenever you mint zPIV. (PIVX wallet will auto-backup each time also)

@revilo
Zerocoin protocol has been implemented and is already active. (zPIV)
But we recently had a network issue which delayed its proper launch.

Thank you jakiman. I am quite new to this coin and want to get more involved now.

It is already too much time between doubts and confusion.

An unforeseen problem arose during roll-out, which is currently being resolved. It has taken around one week so far, during which time multiple release-candidate wallets have been posted for testing. While there is not yet a final release, the network has stabilized further with each new release, so progress is being made. There has been no shortage of information about the issues and the efforts to resolve them, both from the community and from the dev team. As a community, we know what's going on; we just don't know how long it will take.

My question is, what more do you want? Shit happens sometimes. Sure it would have been better if there was no problem in the first place, but it is what it is. Maybe it will take a week, or two weeks, or a month to resolve this--or maybe it will never be resolved; who knows--but only in the crazy world of crypto would a week be considered "too much time" to resolve problems related to implementing something that has literally never been done before.

I think I strongly disagree with most of your value judgments, deeply, beginning with what can be considered an unforeseen event or not. But I do not think that right now brings anything positive that debate. I understand that all that is needed is to overcome a problem that in practice blocks the most elementary operation of the project.

So back to your question, what I want is information as objective as possible to overcome it ... for which to channel it through jakiman seems to me, by aseptic , honest and concise, the most appropriate official choice among the ones I know until I reach the step definitive technique that we hope to arrive with the official wallet based on the existing intermediates right now.

A greeting.

Having read all official stuff about the situation I think we will not recover our coins.
I switched to the correct blockchain, changed wallets, recovered zpiv keys, run debug programms.
Nothing.
In the blockchain explorer I found those transactions.
They link to unknown address.
That's why all that has been converted to zpiv is zero.
Point.

And yes, everything will be presented as an attempt of FUD.


Do not you think that nobody have recovered any?

Explain yourself a little please

You will always have people who have problems and who says it works fine. That cannot be avoided unfortunately.
So it's hard to avoid FUD in public forums. Always follow my twitter & @_PIVX twitter for official stance/news.

As for what you are asking, the whole point of zPIV is achieving unlinked private transactions.
You can still check your own address in the BE and see how many zPIV you minted however.
So that can be used to verify that a certain address minted that amount of zPIV.

I always try to jakiman, even though sometimes many users try to help from their particular position, I try to clarify if they do it as members of the degree that is within the PIVX team, or not ... precisely for that, so that the criteria do not Disperse. I always try to guide myself through official channels, because something else can add even more confusion to everything.

Regarding the explorer that you attach, several questions ... is it valid for all the addresses? Even if they are in one or another version of the wallet? Do you also report the balance in ZPIVs? - I think that recently, the Zivivs, because of their anonymous character, were not seen in the explorer's balance sheet -

Thank you very much for your objectivity and help.

jakiman is back!
I'll try to answer what I can now. Got only few mins before needing to step away and will be mostly off this weekend.

Any news on the iphone app?

It was scheduled for Q4 this year. I believe that is still the case but at worst case would be early Q1 2018.

Where can get some coin?

You can buy PIVX at various exchanges using BTC & FIAT. https://pivx.org/exchanges/
However, as we are going through a wallet upgrade atm, please avoid using those that utilizes a PIVX wallet for purchasing. (e.g. litebit, changelly etc)
We hope for all those services to be back online by next week at the latest once our final wallet gets released soon.

P.S. @jakiman:
if we can set a path/folder for the auto backups, that would be very helpful. ofc the devs have still other things to do. just an idea for a future updates

To specify? I'm sure that can be done. But yeah, would be low priority atm. But I'll pass it on. Smiley

@jakiman

Although PIVX is resuming its powerful communication strategy with more translations, meetings, etc., something very strange in the middle of a conflict like the current one, during which it does not seem the best moment to receive new users, there is much controversy in It has been found that everyone says that everything is great and others who say that nothing works, while they are instantly accused of FUD and identifiers as the developers insist that have a more recent version, although many users claim that their currencies disappear from the balance with it I do not know the origin of those nicks, although the security that the developers defend as real seems not at all.

At the end of the day, what is needed is objective information and as we have been listening for too long that everything is controlled but the problems continue, it seems clear that higher levels of certainty about our real operation are needed and to park this dynamics of endless discussions. For this, and to get a tool I have a question:

Is there a problem with the PIVX Team in attaching address or ID Transactions of the ZPIV transvases are a PIV claiming that they are being performed normally? That way, it is very easy for users to confirm in the blockchain that everything is correct and equally, you could contrast if someone is inventing FUD and end it.

Can you expose it to the team to end this situation once and for all? In this way, they have it very easy for us all to enjoy the breakthroughs again and avoid malicious FUD.

Thank you.

Why i cant recync with 3.0.4 wallet and stuck at 873115 block, wtf is goin on? Nothing helps
"They say" that works. Someone knows someone ... who says he's got it.

In this forum, several nicks claim to have recovered their original PIVs from the ZPIVs in which they were automatically transformed. It would be perfect to be able to check it by an objective method.

Coins, stops in the exchanges. In Slack they tell you to "try" "sending one".

Can the actual operation of the network be certified in the explorer? Or where ? It is already too much time between doubts and confusion.

Even on Linux, the latest wallet release works perfectly. I just had to replace the pivx-qt file as usual and resync to get on the right blockchain. My balance is intact! Thank you for the great effort and the swift solution.
