Every week, I will try to update the list so the community knows if any tx id are missing.

I'm back in town finally and will be available this weekend to be involved.

I would backup the wallet again then create a new wallet and allow the whole thing to completely sync. Replace the new wallet with the old one and see what happens.

the wallet is getting corrupted automatically when it comes near 4 days remaining. is there something i can do..ive mined a lotta coins in last 4 days. i can open ric client with my unsynced wallet. but when it tries to sync past 4 days remaining its getting corrupted. some database error in wallet.dat which then says wallet.dat corrupted. and also RIC client is stuck in rescanning for 30 minutes literally.

Excellent community we have here

OMG!!! i got my wallet back again.. i couldnt recover by using previous version of file but i right click the whole folder and click previous version i could find previous version of whole folder and the client is starting up now and atleast its syncing.

Hi,
I would like to add some more clarification regarding storing private keys using the above mentioned method. This method only valid for so called "cold" wallet, the one that is not actively used to spend coins from. In the moment you start spending coins from a wallet using the Satoshi client (like bitcoin-qt), at each transaction the remaining coins are transferred to a new address with a new private key. More detailed and better explanation can be found here: http://bitzuma.com/posts/five-ways-to-lose-money-with-bitcoin-change-addresses/
Also in order to "extract" all the addresses in use from a wallet.dat the recommended way is to use the "listaddressgroupings" command. This command will list all addresses and their balances stored in a wallet.dat. If you still want to export the private keys from a wallet.dat then you should use the addresses with positive balance got with listaddressgroupings.

Remember, a wallet really doesn't "contain" any coins at all.  If you have your private key you can recreate your wallet.

For those that don't have their private key written down and put someplace safe, you should.  Preferably several places if you have a lot of coins in your wallet.

To find you private key if you are using the standard Riecoin wallet:

Click Help->Debug Window and click on the Console tab
Find your public key by typing the following in the Console window:
validateaddress RIECOINADDRESS
   replace RIECOINADDRESS with your Riecoin address that is used to send coins to your wallet
You should see something like this:
{
"isvalid" : true,
"address" : "RIECOINADDRESS",
"ismine" : true,
"isscript" : false,
"pubkey" : "yourpublickey",
"iscompressed" : true,
"account" : "Main"
}

yourpublickey is your public key, you should write that down as well

If you have password protected your wallet, disable it for 60 secs as follows
walletpassphrase yourwalletpassphrase 60
    replace yourwalletpassphrase with your wallet passphrase

Finally enter the following command in the console window
dumpprivkey "yourpublickey"

The console should display your private key, write that down.  That is what you need to generate a wallet from scratch and recover your coins.

Now if you lost your private key and your wallet.dat file is actually corrupted, ouch!  Hope you have even older backups, you should make a primary backup the very first time you create your wallet, before you even send any coins to it.  Any backup anywhere in time is sufficient to recover your coins.

Update: We havn't spent a single RIC (besides testing the wallet initially using my personal funds) so all RIC donated are still there. If someone can write a script that can parse the entire blockchain and search for our address, they can see I am telling the truth (please send me the script so I can use it too ). I would take a crack at it but currently working on an android app for Riecoin. It'd be nice to have it though. Easier way to confirm how much is in our address.

I guess the foundation affects a lot more than I thought? Anyways, plans will be made this weekend with our marketing team (hopefully they aren't busy) to see how we can reach more people in and out of the crypto community.

Agree. First sign my SSD was failing a couple years ago was the bitcoin blockchain cache having to re-download. A few pokes at the drive later and I was cloning it and doing an RMA.

You should be able to recover a wallet if you have any valid backup of it, correct? If it's a windows machine you may have "previous versions" of the file, even if you don't have any good real backups.

Spinrite is also worth it even if you don't normally try to repair your own computers.

The moment it was announced that 10k RIC was donated, and enough to start marketing mintpal ric volume increased10 btc isnt this nice=]

I would immediately shutdown the PC (so as not to overwrite older versions in random sectors) and use something like Spinrite or another free data recovery software to see if youj can recover an old version of the file. It's a long shot but loosing thousands of coins might be worth a shot. Good luck!

    I'm also having a high rejection rate, but on my end, it's clearly just latency coupled with blocks being found too quickly... My shares get outdated easily :S

On another note, anyone working on a cuda implementation for riecoin? I'll be (very) happy to test and give feedback on any early version
 

even the backup shows as corrupted OMG i was outta town but my vps were mining for like 5 days all those coins gone. there were 217 vps mining in ypool alllll coins gone. what can i do now.

hope you have a backup of your wallet? since you have 000's of coins.

this coin is so damn annoying. first it takes forever to load the wallet then forever to sync like few hours. and just now my wallet got corrupted for no reason it had thousands of coins in it. is there any way to recover them? the error i get is wallet.dat corrupted, salvage failed.

RIC to take off ah, go to the moon, refueling！

This is truly fantastic news and such a great feeling to see the foundation and some basic funding come in to play!
