If this coin changes it's name I will buy some...but...Boolberry??  Huh
Do you ever use Google? That's a childish company name if I ever heard one. In fact, its original form "googol" was actually made up by a 9-year old child. Also, look at other cool technology companies of today. No "grownup" names whatsoever.

Most importantly, the naming issue has already been discussed earlier, and there's nothing to add. So please do as I say, not as I do, and stop commenting about it Wink

No, this means that I'm contributing my own resources to the project. crypto_zoidberg is one of the brightest minds in this space and having him operate in any capacity is a positive. If we run into any technical issues during this process we'll be in contact with him. If not, we're going to continue working towards a release and focus on collaborating with him when it comes time to commit to the repo.

Thanks for stepping up!

Any crypto project that depends on only one man is not a legit crypto project - did Satoshi (whoever he might be) retired from BTC? - yes, and that was  long time ago, and BTC is now where it is just because of community efforts ...
So, if CZ wants to be to BBR just like Satoshi was to BTC just let it be. If anyone here really wants BBR to have a future - don't just wait for CZ to make a miracle for you. If you really wanted that, why you haven't invested in ETH or some other centralized ICO scam, at least those that pray to Vitalik got some profit from it now.
BBR has a chance to be second best cryptonote project and that's not a small thing in crypto. I'll follow this trail and donate 1k BBR to this effort of reviving it (as soon as I sync my BBR wallet lol), hope that more bagholders will follow  Wink

Development Progress Update:

As some of you may know, I donated 20,000 Boolberry to zoidberg for development during the last major growth cycle but the donations didn't end up going towards development. After 6 months of waiting and some research I've decided to take a more hands-on approach to reviving this project in a direction that will benefit everyone in the shortest period of time.

I've managed to secure a senior level C++ developer to contribute to the project full-time. Our first major milestone will be merging the Bytecoin codebase with Boolberry's to bring it up to date with the advancements made over the years. In my view, the combination of Boolberry's unique features like its hashing algorithm, blockchain bloat reduction and privacy improvements along with Bytecoin 2.0's vast array of performance, usability and stability improvements will position Boolberry as the most advanced and efficient Cyptonote project.

In addition to the code merge, Clintar2 is working on his LMDB integration which is now in a working state. His LMDB work will eventually replace our RocksDB implementation when the update goes live.

I've had cordial exchanges with both crypto_zoidberg and clintar2; neither of whom have shown any reserves about this proposal. I'm funding this project by myself so I would appreciate any donations from the community as everyone here will be benefitting from the overall growth of the project.

Does this mean zoidberg has retired from bbr, or he is collaborating with you?

MY RED TRUST LEFT BY SCUMBAGS - READ MY SIG
is there an active bbr slack that is worth joining to learn about any kind of development ongoing with bbr?
or is bbr currently in a resting phase?

I solved also the sync problem with first use a demon what no have the "check the security bug" and past block 780000. Then use a newer demon what check the security bug.
Good solution!!
I don't see much good nodes in connection list either.

You should wait for fixed binaries from zoidbeg.
My fix seem to solve the issue (my build synced from the scratch normally) so I hope zoidbeg will accept it very soon.
Or you can get somewhere blockchain.bin past 750k block — your current daemon will work because it will sync past the critical point

Thank you, buddy, jut one little question: why you acquire m_blockchain_lock (it's already owned by this code at the beginning of function)?
my fault) fixed

Merged!
Thanks!

Any ideas who could make these transactions? Smiley

I can not sync BBR Blockchain.
At Block 757131 get a "Block recognized as orphaned and rejected" message.
And this for hours.
i use a seed node 5.9.44.154:10101

Got the same issue.

I found out there are txs with invalid key_image in the blockchain. The first one is at block 757131.
On May 9th zoidberg commited a security fix from monero (https://getmonero.org/2017/05/17/disclosure-of-a-major-bug-in-cryptonote-based-currencies.html) and now each input is being checked against invalid key_image. That's good.
Unfortunately, by the time he commited the fix there had already been malformed txs in the blockchain. That's why blockchain can't be resyncronized from the beginning now.

I send a pull request to address this issue: https://github.com/cryptozoidberg/boolberry/pull/54

Thank you, buddy, jut one little question: why you acquire m_blockchain_lock (it's already owned by this code at the beginning of function)?
 
Code:
    CRITICAL_REGION_BEGIN(m_blockchain_lock);
    top_block_height = m_blocks.size() - 1;
    CRITICAL_REGION_END();

hope zoidberg will accept it soon.
Now the blockchain is over 3GB and i dont know where to dowload.
It´s also not easy to get seed nodes, as the white list is only 8 nodes, for me what i can see.
How much nodes do you see?

What i can do now for sync the blockhain?
Without syncing no transaction is possible, because simplewallet say the demon are busy.

As to invalid txs with invalid key_images. There are 7 in the blockchain. Thanks to zoidberg's fix it's completely fixed now.
