Riecoin Core 24.04 released, new Website

Riecoin Core 24.04 was released on April 18, 2024. Read the release notes to learn more about the changes from 23.04.

Unlike 23.04, the upgrade to 24.04 from 23.04 is straightforward for most people.
Since the update incorporates some soft forks, solo miners, pool operators and other important actors to the Riecoin network should upgrade within one month when the changes will start being enforced.

The latest binaries can be downloaded here.

Additionally, we moved our website to Riecoin.xyz from Riecoin.dev, and have revamped it.

23.04 should have a working node hard coded. But Testnet is going to be reset in the next version anyway (24.04), planned for first half of April, so I have not really bothered to check lately if the node still works and is still reached without effort. I notably want to remove the "go down to minimum Difficulty when 10 minutes were elapsed" thing.
I assume that you were able to figure out anyway after a few weeks (I don't really check BitcoinTalk anymore).

Hi, does anyone have any nodes for the TESTNET please?

Riecoin Core 23.04 released

Riecoin Core 23.04 was released on April 29 2023. Read the release notes to learn more about the changes from 22.03.

Important: this version brings notable changes regarding the Riecoin wallets. This has no consequence for new Riecoin users, but some actions may be required if a previous Riecoin version was used. If you are upgrading from an older version, please read the release notes above carefully.

If you are have questions or are unsure of anything, the community will be glad to assist you for the upgrade. As always, it is recommended to do it as soon as possible, though there is also no hurry, just find a time where you are comfortable to properly understand the instructions and perform the upgrade. The wallet changes were quite exceptional and future upgrades will usually not require particular interventions like for this release.

The latest binaries can be downloaded here.

Riecoin alive?

To expand the use cases of RIC, a token was created in the Binance Smart Chain, so Riecoin can now be used in some DeFi services and Decentralized Exchanges.

Token Contract: 0xc2097531d6cd4a712ae08f398283a92631dc39f9
RICB can currently be traded with any other BEP20 token on PancakeSwap. The contract must be entered as token in the swap form.

RIC/BTC: https://www.udontrade.com/market/ricbtc
RIC/USDT (ERC20, BEP20, TR20): https://www.udontrade.com/market/ricusdt

Hey Roman chill out.
You've done a lot of things hurting instead of benefiting Riecoin.
I dunno what is your problem and how the hell you find so much time to act like a child but if you cannot do something useful just do nothing.

On the other hand PttnMe has done great work for Riecoin. His work actually has kept this chain alive so if it means anything, i vouch for him/her.
This would be dead years ago without him.  

Your new Riecoin Forum account is supposed to be a throwaway account to make an appeal, and you wasted your last opportunity to redeem yourself. It is thus logical that it is banned.
And again, I never called you a scammer. Are you trying hard to make me say such thing so you can sue me?

---

Edit: 2 years later, we somehow managed to sort out our differences and are getting along now, I am glad to make this update.

I APPOLOGIZE Thomas NQUYEN For Running Riecoin Node under name  "/GpuRICn:0.21.0/" and for  signing mined blocks by "/GPU REAL MINER 2/
I state that ALL OF FUTURE REWARDS will be rejected by me and requested to send them for helping people from Ukraine.

Waiting for your response now.
I  am waiting for your response here:

Oh more banning? Riecoin will be testnet for me. You will only take responsibility for calling me scammer.

Okay everyone, grab some pop corn.

Frankly, I don't really know your true intentions. Maybe you really want to help Riecoin. But your actions are clearly harming us instead, and don't reflect your words of supporting Riecoin and seeing it as the best cryptocurrency ever. What you are saying here is a good summary of our talks and it just need my version. You want me to be sorry? Then Ok, sorry man, I get that you are angry, it is normal to be after being banned... And I thank you for explaining yourself here. I give you a chance to appeal and you are taking it, so let's discuss.
Now, just Chill and stop insulting me in the social networks, delete that Tweet and Reddit comment, Ok? Only then I will delete the screenshot showing your name. I have no obligation to delete them otherwise because you are the one who chose to insult me and my Father and it is how the Internet works. You are the one who owes me excuses.
And don't say nonsense, there is no password or mail unless you are using your username as password.
Your username here also speaks against you... Man, this will become some Même Material...

We already talked for months on Discord and talking on phone will not bring anything and I just don't want to dox myself to some stranger. And it is better to talk about that in public so the discussion has more chance to evolve rather than stall like it did for months.

Banning you from the Constellation Explorer is no manipulation... The Explorer is not the Blockchain, nobody banned you from the Blockchain and you can continue mining... There are rules. If you prefer, you have been disqualified rather than banned, like tennis players that throw balls and hurt linesmen. And if you want, you could create your own Constellation Explorer and ban me there...

Financial support... Then care to show a Transaction Id of BTC or RIC from you sent to a donation address bc1qr3yxckxtl7lacvtuzhrdrtrlzvlydaneqela0u/ric1qr3yxckxtl7lacvtuzhrdrtrlzvlydane2h37ja? And not just 0.01 RIC donations worth just $0.00005?
Indeed, you did propose some fiat payment, but I declined, because again I don't want to dox my info, I don't trust you, and if you really want to help, it just takes some extra steps to convert your fiat to BTC and send to a public donation address. Can you do that? Would you do that? Could you donate more than just a few cents? If so, I would be glad to withdraw some "Empty words" accusations. But otherwise yes, such financial support offer is just empty words.

Oooh that nice guy? Who then downed the Riecoin community and project just because we happened to be all busy and did not reply to his question instantly? Trash talked us after all the help we already gave him voluntarily? And to be fair, he was the one who left the server first and giving us no chance to help.

Of course, I asked you a thousand times about that miner mod. There is even a public mention from you about the Mod in the Riecoin Forum. Yet you never showed anything. Where is the GitHub repository? Tell me! Show me that and I will gladly remove some more empty words accusations.
Never said that you are the scammer who proposed a "GPU miner" nor even that you talked about a GPU miner. However, you are definitively behind some "GPU miner" FUD.


If you apologize about doing some "GPU miner" FUD, and stop that "/GpuRICn:0.21.0/" and "/GPU REAL MINER 2/" thing, then Ok, I could accept the apologies and consider unban you. Or just show me the GitHub repository of a "real GPU miner". But if you keep spreading that FUD and harming the Twitter accounts, then I have no reason to unban someone that is misleading and harming the Riecoin community.


Months have already elapsed and your other project is not that complicated, and you even say that you have a team of developers. Okay, it is easy to underestimate the time needed to complete a project, but then in this case, you at least show your progress after all this time. But no, you never show anything concrete. So yes, that is just empty talking to pretend to work on a project and deliver nothing.
And when you say that you are angry that the Halving has been decided without you last week, one can just doubt on your abilities to actually deliver something meaningful.


Seriously, making threats again and again... If you used the money to actually support Riecoin instead of suing everyone that annoys you...
Frankly, with your toxic behavior, even if you do deliver things, you don't deserve to be unbanned. You are currently still spreading lies on Twitter and harming the Riecoin social media. If you stop all that bad faith and deliver, then maybe I can change my mind.
Maybe I am wrong to ban you and all, but I genuinely don't think that you will ever provide anything positive for Riecoin. Now it is up to you to prove that I am wrong by stopping all that nonsense and start providing concrete work.
Otherwise don't insist and just move on. There are thousands of other projects you could provide all your support, that would maybe welcome your help more than us. We can still remain in good terms that way.

I was going to send the message, but now I see


Okay, okay, I am soooo afraiiid...
You just wasted your last chance to be unbanned.

Hello Thomas. I invite you only for phone talk. Do not afraid and don't hide after public.
You can always call me and talk or ban. I will use non existing GPU Miner. So please ban it. I will also banned you at my XBOX -- no more GTA !

Your University was informed about your mails, banning so congrats

Tell people how many people are on your banning discord, many twitter accounts WOW. And I wanted to help you.

Thomas Failed. Sorry. I don't allow to post my messages anymore. For calling me scammer you will pay a huge price, now I am going to report it to the Police, they will forward it to Geneva and your University because they found a contact there.

So we will switch on all mining pools starting today. Now 90% miners are offline. Pleas don't contact me. Copy of message posted here will be sent to you via DM.

Password to this account also.

I didn't test this feature either, but I don't see any reason it would not work. Your support is appreciated!

There is currently some drama with an user "Romezowe"/"McMuch", who is behind some "GPU miner" FUD, and attempting to propose a "modded miner" to some involved in Riecoin (especially Pool Operators) in exchange for some obscure partnership.

For those who don't know, there is since a while a large miner called something like "RTX1660TEST1" in SuprNova wanting to make people think that a new GPU miner was created, thus creating some doubt regarding Riecoin being CPU only. But I can confidently say that there is no efficient GPU miner out there.
The user did the mistake to start doing Solo Mining and leaving clear links with the user Romezowe. While the link between RTX1660TEST1 and Romezowe is not certain, it is however provable that Romezowe has intentions to do some FUD about an nonexistent GPU miner.
Personally, he annoyed me for months, pretending to support Riecoin and to be working on interesting software, but of course did never deliver anything. Meanwhile he is behind all that GPU FUD stuff. And I am not the only one who was annoyed by all his empty talk.
Liars and empty talkers have no place in the Riecoin community. That user has been banned from all Riecoin communication channels.




Well, if you show me that "GPU REAL MINER", then I could maybe reconsider the ban .
But we can confidently affirm that there is no efficient GPU miner out there. Beware of persons that may propose you a "GPU" or "optimized" or "modded" miner in exchange for money or anything, they are scammers.

---

Okay, now insulting me on Twitter and Reddit, and thinking that the Halving is "Blochchain Manipulation"!

Well, if someone else does find the ban unjustified, let me know, I am of course open to arguments .
We can also discuss about that here in a neutral forum Roman .

Congrats on Riecoin Core 22.03 and the new RIC software releases, PttnMe.

I'm in the process of upgrading / migrating Gapcoin / Riecoin node infrastructure to new servers.

I trust that the new Riecoin Core 22.03 release has v3 .onion support for Tor (asking without checking first ...) ?

It should work fine, though I did not test it with NOMP-RIC as I don't maintain it anymore.
Ideally, your pool should starting from now use StellaPool so it can also distribute PoWc and be listed in the Riecoin Faucet. And the latest StellaPool code will always work with the latest Riecoin Core version.

Great News ...

Upgrading our pool will mean just a Daemon Update will it?

#crysx #cwi

Riecoin Core 22.03 and new RIC software released, halving, 1,000,000 RIC Bounty

Riecoin Core 22.03 is out. This version ports the Bitcoin 22.0 improvements and adds a code generator, which can be used for passwordless or 2-factor authentication. It also includes the Bitcoin's Pull Requests 21500 (for exporting Descriptors) and 24058 (for initial Bip 322 message signing support). New wallets can only be Descriptor Wallets, though old Legacy Wallets are still supported.

While not mandatory, it is recommended to upgrade now to 22.03. Upgrading from 0.21 is straightforward and no particular precaution should be taken, though we will always remind you to make backups of your wallets. You can learn more about this version on the dedicated topic. If you find some time, please migrate your wallets to Descriptor Wallets; this is not urgent, but the support of Legacy Wallets will eventually be dropped. It will also be the case for Bitcoin, so doing it for Riecoin would be a great preparation.

In addition to a new Riecoin Core version, several new software were developed. rieWallet is a thin Riecoin wallet that makes it very easy to receive and send Riecoins without any setup or blockchain download. This is great for Riecoin beginners or people that don't have a powerful computer.

StellaPool is a new Riecoin mining pool software, that replaces NOMP-RIC. It was written from scratch and provides the main features that one would expect from a mining pool. StellaPool also propose an innovative PoW Credits (PoWc) feature, which distributes points to miners that can be "consumed" for services. PoWc are also designed to replace captchas. Start integrating this technology in your services to make the Internet a better place! A practical application of the PoW as captcha alternative is our new Riecoin Faucet: claim coins without solving any captcha!

A new Riecoin mining pool opened, and you can now mine RIC on Stelo.xyz! It is also currently the only mining pool that distributes PoWc, which can be consumed in the Riecoin Faucet and any service integrating this technology.

This news is a great occasion to reminder that the second RIC halving will occur in a few days at Block 1680000. This means that RIC will become scarcer over time, so now is a strategic time to stack some RIC while they are still cheap!

Thanks to all the Riecoin miners, we kept finding interesting Prime Constellations, with 50 prime nonuplets and 2 prime 10-tuplets since the second Fork, which all beat all previous world records. Some of our records are shown in the German Wikipedia, so you too, start mining RIC, create an account in the Constellation Explorer, and become a Champion! The more we are, and the larger and more interesting the k-tuplets we find are! No other PoW cryptocurrency offers such exciting competition, so consider giving up the search for hashes!

Despite our efforts, Riecoin remains in the shadows. So we have opened a Bounty of 1,000,000 RIC for whoever brings us some light! This is more than 1% of all the RIC that will ever exist and a unique opportunity to make large profits as if we ever reach the USD ATH again, which is far from utopic given the billions that go in silly projects, one million RIC would be worth more than $500,000.

One last thing, we are now using a new Twitter account. Please unfollow @riecoin and follow @RiecoinDev starting from now.

See ...

What would we do without you Mate

#crysx #cwi

The problem is simply that you are using a way outdated version that does not support the second fork.
