I've always been positive about XCN.

Except for the name.  That was a huge, correctable mistake.

And (along with aminorex) I said so, while providing an alternative.  I registered domains (including an expensive .io) and offered them to the project; I even offered to bribe BF with dev funds if he would change it!

Alas, BF made it clear he was happy for the project to languish in obscurity with its confusing, un-trademarkable name.

So I moved on.  And then, so did he.  

I'm not saying the shitty name alone caused the project to fail, I'm just saying it certainly didn't help.  

Wow something positive from you, it's a honor ;-)

It surely deserves to survive more than many others.
In the end what are the altcoins for, if not experimenting new technologies?

Now someone please host the blockexplorer :-)

Hi all,

Just wanted to say how much I appreciate the efforts to keep XCN alive.

I've always admired the elegant, innovative tech in this project.

Don't forget the key role near death experiences play in developing a coin's antifragility.

If XCN can survive its time in the wilderness, it has a correspondingly better chance to survive success.

or add upnp=1 to the conf file.

Well on windows you have to start the wallet wih -upnp to make it happen as pallas wrote -D
Would also be cool to port the wallet to newer version of Bitcoin Core Client... is it possible?

Thanks!
And if your router has UPNP enabled, you don't even need to open the ports ;-)

Hello,

here is a snapshot as of today 6min old blockchain.
I keep them updated and place them here:

http://uploaded.net/f/byfgnu
also about doing a Torrent.

Also do your part keep wallet open - open the ports so seed is working.
Currently I have 30 connections to my node loading from me the blockchain data...the more keep it like this the more healthy the XCN become again.

pallas, hi there again,

anyone in already on doing an explorer, what you and i need is

the github miniblockchainproject files, synced wallet, daemon running, apache, ming,

Always getting this error equal how often i resync from scratch..I started with snapshot i made from 21.10.2016 20:55 - and now 5h of syncing and I'm at 22.10.2016 9am this is a bad joke really.

I can upload one if you wish.

Block folder
trie.dat
peers.dat

What files are needed for the snapshot?

I made snapshot but they are 1month old and i can't even with them get it sycned. :-(
The snapshots pages back is even older but also gives error when syncing again around 41000blocks ago..it started so i need a already synced one.
I wasted 2 days of syncing and always get at certain block error..

So please pallas can you provide me your snapshot? Thanks

there is one some pages back, if that doesn't work I will make a snapshot for you.

Could someone please post the full blockchain.
I tried now 4 times over many days to sync..no success ..it often happens that i get blockread error.
Something is messed in the blockchain and full sync is not working anymore - so please share.

hi guys,


anything new to read on xcn, i am really been busy trying with smallbit from polo, but i did not get to compiling,

gnasirator, or pallas, could you not setup a vm iso or so so i could host it, or something in that matter..

dont know anything on my skills, or yours, got no time to read all that now to, it is going to be up before december right guys,
