Any news about the latest update that was supposed to happen last week?
I have updated the client, even yesterday I posted an updated version. If that's what you were referring to? As for Latoken we are testing the main net.

I was referring to the update you said was going to fix a little error re reporting of frozen/reserved coins.  Did you post that yesterday?  I didn't see it announced anywhere.

Oh I guess we forgot to report back to Bitcointalk. That has been out for I think over a week. So sure please update the client from bitbay.market

Your frozen balance will definitely show. And also we have raised the supply to 100% so anyone who wants to freeze voluntarily to get the stake reward bonus can do so. If using Halo just remember to break for change if you have any large inputs over 100k.
@Cryptonaire - I didn't see the fix was posted either...
I recently noticed the supply was 100% (I think only a couple of days ago).
So glad you asked about it; We've been waiting for it to post. So I guess it's now posted.
Thank You for paying attention!!!

Thanks for the full answer! I only remember one password from the password manager.

Thanks David for the answer! But I have another question: can a wallet.dat wallet file with a good password be cracked if my wallet.dat accidentally falls into the wrong hands? Thanks!

If the password is good then I don't think so. Every time a character is added to a password it's complexity increases exponentially. So not even a "quantum" computer could solve a long enough password. On the other hand, you want to be realistic and be able to remember your password. Or else you will find backing up a password in one place and keys in the other. If a wallet file is password protected and you forget or lose that password you also would lose access to your account so consider all of that when backing up.

Hello! What reliable cloud storage for wallet (wallet.dat) is better to use? Thank you!

I don't personally recommend cloud storage but you can just as well encrypt it with a password in Winrar and email it to yourself. Also it's good to store on a flash drive. Just always remember to not lose passwords.

Right now BAY earns about 2.2% annually if continuously staked. Does 2.2% correspond to the 5 BAY rewards earned by Liquid BAY? So would the 40 BAY rewards for Frozen Liquid BAY correspond to 8 * 2.2% = 17.6% ?



Actually that's the thing. The maximum inflation of the economy is 2% but that assumes everyone who stakes does voluntary freeze for the bonus. So in truth the real number is unknown. It is anywhere from .25-2% per year (5-40 coins per block)

@dzimbeck thanks for the reaction, I run QT wallet. Tried to add nodes which are running this latest wallet (from this explorer: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/bay/#!network) , but still the same. Some progress and hours of nothing after that. Never mind, I will sync it somehow, there is about 1/3 of the chain to download left. I have to close/open wallet again and again. Bootstrap could be fine, but there is no official download link and taking the one from somebody on the Internet is not the best solution.


You have to be patient, it takes 10 days to sync the chain at least without bootstrap.

Updated QT wallet to v3 and it stuck on block 2459220, 38 hours ago. Synced from scratch. How fix it?

This may happen as not 100% nodes were updated before hard fork.
So you unluckily stuck into abandoned chain looks like.
Simplest and quick way:

1. stop qt wallet
2. backup wallet.dat somewere
3. remove all files in datafolder except wallet.dat
4. place bootstrap.dat in datafolder
5. start qt wallet

bootstrap file is updated up to Jan 23 - bypassing fork point, so you should be safe after resync.
it may take 2-3 hours to load from bootstrap which is much faster then ordinary resync.

Usually new exchanges dont want use bootstrap file and want sync from scratch like me. But got same errors like @marecek666 had.
We are not using "new" exchanges at this point; when we are ready for them the bootstrap file won't be an issue.

You and @marecek666 seem to be the only ones who are having problems. It's really not that hard.
If you are having so many orphans (like no one else is...), the best thing to do is Resync. Easy.
Everything is running smoothly and was easy to update on my end - and with now at least 75% of coin Stakers.
very simple ... but ordinary resync is not smooth and stuck at random blocks. Wallet is not able to continue and takes everything as an orphan. It is able to accept next blocks for several minutes after the restart.
But I finally got it fully synced after many restarts of the wallet (I did not know about the link for bootstrap). It is synced and staking for now.
anyway thanks for your input  Wink

TEAM: This is pretty cool to see the results of my Liquid, Reserve and Supply% of BAY that everyone is voting on - in the "History" section of my Wallet in the BAY Client.
Monetary History is being made right now and FEW even know it. lol

Right now the Peg Supply%, which is my Supply% also, is 50.99% - that's the lowest I've ever seen it.  Very cool - it's working beautifully when the majority vote to deflate!

Even after all these years I thought I knew how all this worked; but as I recently found out from David, I was right in some respects and off the mark in others. Lol

I must say that after I think I now finally grasp what BAY really is, and could become; it is even BETTER than I ever imagined!  Shocked

I wonder if the rest of the world knows that D. Zimbeck is one of the greatest, and maybe the greatest Chess Puzzle makers ever?
Not many people in the world are world class Chess players; yet alone world class Chess Puzzle MAKERS... I know I most certainly am not   Cheesy; and don't know anyone else who is. David was a Child Prodigy in Chess and could easily be a Grand Master if that's what he so desired.
His self taught genius and deep sense of fairness for everything business are on display in this BAY peg; and is simply amazing to witness.

D. Zimbeck Reply:
That's nice of you to say, thanks Doc. Yeah for those who are wondering what he's talking about, as I kid I composed puzzles as a "task composer" to set world records and such. I only learned chess at 11 but started composing at 13 and my work was published shortly after. At the time, I collaborated with some composers like Edgar Holladay and Milan Vukcevich both of whom are legends. Holladay used to send me hand written letters in the mail with the board hand drawn and the pieces stamped on. Hahaha the days before the internet or cell phones. The puzzles I created were designed to stump grandmasters and computers, one took me years to prove it's validity and ensure it was dual-free and sound. Since computers weren't any help in proofing it, the work was very demanding. It's a sort of art form. I wasn't really interested in competitive chess.

My work in chess can be found here:

Really thanks devs for the new version of wallet. It is super to see that the development is going forward. But this new wallet is the worst I have ever seen for syncing. It was not able to start with datadir files synced from previous version (keep crashing). I deleted whole contents of datadir except my wallet.dat and let it sync from the scratch. But it is not able to do full sync. It is doing OK for several minutes and after that stop at random block and for hours nothing after that. Log file contains ten thousands of lines with this:

I have to close wallet, delete generated log file (it is prety large) and start it again. It can continue in syncing again after that. But it stops on another random block again. So have to close and start it again for syncing another blocks until next stop ...
Running on i5-3470, 16GB, SSD, Win8.1, 1Gbps symmetric connection. Previous wallet was well working.

Well first off the newest Halo wallet pre vs post fork downgraded leveldb to match the QT (I wanted to stay on the newer version but Bitcoin also runs old version so Yshurik convinced me to make it compatible). However I'm not sure if you are running Markets/Halo wallet or QT. Since that change was only to markets wallet.

Orphan blocks have nothing to do with the wallet, it's a local phenomenon on the chain. It's possible there is a group of nodes that didn't port over to the fork or you updated too late or some nodes are staking different length of the chain and it should self-correct. So when you have so many orphans the best thing to do is to resync. You can save yourself a lot of time by downloading the bootstrap. I will ask the team to post a link to it. Since I don't have it off hand however I think we now have it automated to update the bootstrap. Hopefully someone will post a bootstrap link here shortly.
