And network stuck.

@XEL-9HQ9-BXCV-TARZ-BRDNA please don't stop forging for at least 24h until other nodes coins get mature (1440 blocks min. from the moment they will receive coins) because if you aren't forging rest of the network is stopped and there is nothing we can do with test-net.

@EK elastic-miner doesn't work atm. Problem is that elastic-miner trying to connect on 7876 port but testnet of course working on 6876. I've already changed ports, compiled and it's working fine. Do I need to create pull request for this or you will have a min to correct it?

Testnet live. Great!

Request for some XEL:

XEL-7UTR-VYZY-ZUZZ-DTJJ5

Some bigger amount would be good (around 5 to 10M). My node will be live 24/7 so would be good to also test forging by few nodes.

EDIT:

Received. Thanks!

@mystery_whale thx for sending testnet tokens  Cool nice. one glitch i found when registering name:

Code:
Could not verify signature (server side)
.

Edit: @EK have a nice holiday Wink

For those of you who want to try out work creation and user-provided work mining, here is a short video tutorial.

It's somewhat old, but the process is still the same.
There is still a lot to do but I am confident that we will fix all upcoming bugs soon and add all missing functions pretty quick!
Also, I hope some people will use the testnet to create a faucet, a block explorer, a better miner! The more people join, the more wonderful Elastic is going to be  Wink

... leaving for Greece now! Grin

I will be away for the next 5 days, I really need to get a few days off to get a clear head again! I am working days and nights!
Of course, i am not a nerd for no reason, so I take my notebook with me and will check every evening how things are going and where fixes are necessary.


I have put up a first version of the Testnet.

- Expect it to break
- Expect it to be buggy
- Expect it to be stress tested a lot
- Expect it to stop working at any time and be replaced by another one
- NEVER run the testnet on your productive system, use a computer for playing only


How do you access it?

- Get Java 1.8
- Entirely delete old instances! Leave no trace!
- Download Source https://github.com/OrdinaryDude/elastic-reference-client
- ./compile.sh
- ./run.sh
- Go in your browser to http://127.0.0.1:6876


Public Node available to quickly try out the Testnet?

- http://52.57.12.123:6876/index.html


How to get play XEL?

- Note, play XEL are throwaway XEL! All play XEL balances get reset frequently.
- We have no faucet yet, so people must distribute the XEL themselves. I have given a trustworthy member here 89900000 XEL to share them with you.
- Account "test" has 100000 XEL in it, first come first served
- The rest is in a testers account.


Limitations

The testnet has reduced functionality. For now, we have a static 60/40 distribution for the proof-of-work fund and the bounty fund, all proof-of-work submissions count 10 XEL, the programming language only supports the SHA256 function (guys, we need more suggestions which functions the programming language should come equipped with so that users do not have to recode everything). Also, several other minor things are also "constant" which of course will be all configurable in the final version. But I think its fine for testing.

What we want?

We want to find bugs  Wink Bugs can affect everything like the difficulty retargeting mechanisms, the block generation mechanisms, the transaction verification, the automatic payment functions (payback on cancellation, bounty fund payout, etc). We need to catch them all.



AGAIN! This is just the first (unstable) testnet! Do not blame me if everything crashes! It's wanted! We need to find all glitches NOW! ;-)

good work EK, looks great! @trustworthy member: can i have some testnet Credits, would like to play around for a bit:
XEL-K3TA-MQNB-4NHD-5GE8U
test account got swept fast lol

So this WAS an ICO and sold that way in the beginning.. i participated and have been following for months now and I was previously reassured that maintaining my transaction details would be enough to guarantee receipt of the tokens. I cannot get the private key from bread mobile btc wallet.

How will you right this situation?

The private key is necessary to prove the ownership of your coins (in cryptoland its all about cryptographic proofs).
But no worries, you have the bread wallet recovery phrase! This will be enough to automatically recover your private key and sign the "claim transaction" for your XEL. There will be an easy tool for that! Do not throw your backup mnemonic phrase away!

Indeed, I do. Thanks man.

what's the problem? if you can show you owned the btc funds you sent you'll be OK

I guess the ease of receipt is confusing the shit out of me right now... just really not sure how this is going to work. And you know uncertainty  = death in cryptoland

Will stay involved, hoping this works out.

EK will help you out bro, you just need to show you're the guy who sent your payment. Private keys signing a message etc ... you'll be OK, EK is a good  dev

Yes check with EK but signing a message using the address you sent funds from would prove you are the rightful owner

We urgently need a faucet for the testnet.
Anyone wants to do it? I thought of something like this: https://github.com/NeXTHorizon/hz-faucet, but I can't get it to work.
Shouldn't be hard to adapt though.

Lannister maybe you could set up a bounty for creating the testnet faucet? This should speed up things a lot.

is it already known, how much extra XEL each participant will get who donated?

there is 29% XEL that will be spread right? Will this be an equal spread among ... (how many?) investors?

thanks!

No the distribution will be done proportionally to the amount of XEL one already holds. There is a current vote that decides about the final total amount of XEL, and it looks like the community will decide for 100 Million. So basically, all remaining 95+ Million XEL will be distributed to those who have XEL ... again proportionally to the amount of XEL everyone already holds.
