Hi All,

I have been monitoring the progress of Spectrecoin for some time now. I invested back in December and kept all the coins in Cryptopia. I have in the last month transferred into my SpectreCoin Desktop Client. After returning after 2 weeks the balance has now disappeared even after sycning the wallet

Any ideas/help?

Probably the zero balance bug. It displays a zero as your balance even though it is not zero. This has been a problem for a long time unfortunately. Your best bet is to just ignore it, you can send and receive and stake as usual.

You can check your actual balance in the block explorer: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/xspec/

Yep thanks for that checked that link and confirmed it was the right amount. Interesting there is a bug around this though. I left my laptop on for a few more hours and eventually the balance was updated

PS - Let me know when you've fixed the onion timeout issue in Linux. The workaround of using WINE to collect peers in order to connect is ridiculous. When Deb?

I'm using Linux and never had that issue. It depends on the speed of your PC actually, and is simply caused by a random process running vs. a timeout that is too short. You can fix the problem by restarting your wallet a few times until the random process has been faster.

How can it be dependent on my laptop speed? I just said that I can run the wallet fine in a Windows environment (using WINE in Linux), but not built from source in Linux. The timeout is within seconds when in a Linux environment, but much longer from the Windows executable. As I referenced in the bug report on Github, I am able to run the wallet in Linux environment when I've extracted peers from the wineprefix. Care to elaborate?

Summary: There is nothing wrong with my laptop. I'm able to run the wallet in Linux without problems after bypassing the timeout issue.

Great way to promote your project by slating your competitors... not. You realise a lot people hold both DO and XSPEC as well as SHIELD and others right? Some people are interested in tor-integrated privacy coins generally and prefer to diversify due to the risk of investing in small cap projects, like myself. So you're really not doing your project any favors here. If you haven't noticed DO members actually support other privacy coins and hold back from pathetic accusations without any evidence. And yeh, I hold ONIONS as well as XSPEC, ZER, ZEC, ZEN, PIVX and NAV, but continue insulting your supporters if you feel it works for you, even if you are sacrificing the reputation of spectrecoin by doing so. Best of luck with your marketing strategy anyway.

Sorry if I made the impression that I would be talking in the name of the project here. I'll have to refer to Mandica for that. What I said about DeepOnion is purely my personal opinion. And yes they are clearly better at marketing than me, by giving away free money they are getting tons of free baseless shilling by people who only care about the price of their coins. And most of the shills don't even notice their irrational bias. That is psychologically ingenious.

Hello guys, how do you think. What is coin more private and stealth: Deeponion, XSPEC or ZCASH. What is technology between these coins more modern?

Right now Zcash is more anonymous, hands down. Zcash is based on zk-SNARKs, XSPEC uses ring signatures which are not zero knowledge but are much more efficient. Zcash is slower and requires much more space than the Spectrecoin wallet (at least 2GB of memory for Zcash). You can read more about the downsides of Zcash here: https://www.quora.com/Whats-good-and-bad-about-zcash

Spectre being less anonymous comes from the fact that the anonymity set is much smaller currently because very few people use stealth transactions. But this will hopefully change in the future.

Deeponion is just a joke lol. They haven't implemented transaction anonymity yet afaik, and the network is partially consisting of public IPs. They're an airdrop exit scheme essentially, large parts of the supply are still held by the devs. DeepOnion is like the little brother of Verge. Cheesy

Great marketing, large community but no technology to back the hype.

Let DeeepOnion be a joke to you. Soon we will integrate stealth addresses. We have time for this. Then answer me what is the problem of Spectrecoin? Why is your steep coin trading so insignificantly?

I saw the Mac wallet is v. 1.3.8. What's the update of this version?
I cannot see the improve of the wallet yet.

From my understanding the build process for the Mac wallet has been improved to generate more stable binaries.

When upgrading wallets, do you create a backup; delete the old wallet version and then import the .dat file into the new wallet after upgrading?

Upgrading the software has nothing to do with your application data, they are in separate folders. You only have to touch the folder that contains the executable files to upgrade the wallet.

For long-term projects you gotta find a strong development team at first thing, they need to deliver what they promise in time and keeping update. If this happens, price will increase eventually.

Does anybody know where i have to put the old spectre folder on my mac if i want to migrate the chain and wallet details? I have a new mac and dont want to download the chain again. I copied the complete folder from my old one but dont have a clue what to do with it know

You have to copy the data directory: https://github.com/bitcoinx2/spectre/wiki/Overview#data-directory

The directory on the new Mac is the same as on the old Mac.

Hi,
do anybody know what "Generated but not accepted" means when Stake transaction is marked by such text? Of course I didn't get staked XSPECs. It happened twice to me so far.
I'm running the client on a computer connected by wifi, couldn't it play some role (network latency)?
I'm just not happy of this happening.

Thanks.

yea, it's very annoying.
i'm staking since january and i got only once a stake reward which was actually accepted.
all the other times my stake rewards didn't get accepted unfortuantely.
with other proof of stake coins i get better staking results than with spectre coin.

WISP is just an exit scam for JBG and his croonies. As they are no longer funded by the free XSPEC staking donations, they and WISP will disappear along with other lame excuses for not delivering on the WISP project as well. For example, just look at the shite xspec website they gave us!

I can't say you are wrong. But The time will tell us what is right. Let's wait for the final truth. Anyway, glad to see at least "Old" XSPEC will continue.

time has already shown us everything
