I had a few hours to fudge my consolidation script into my BCR Granny Wallet GUI:

.
... running alongside the Core QT client here but works with just the daemon as well...
.

I've limited the GUI version to consolidating 5 inputs per button click for damage control purposes if anyone else tests it and it runs amok, but it can be made full-auto. Even as it is it's 100x faster than using coin control in the Core QT client. It spews a bunch of scary hex crap out into the results window currently but that can be tidied up/hidden.

Gave the blockchain a bit of a pounding in testing, seems to be working OK:
http://www.bitcredit.work:3001/address/6DbDRAdXHKVKiVKhRNE1cC6Dbyq4MKK8TQ

Got 15 more BN's worth of inputs to go, plus a bunch in other wallets, should have some more BN-50k lumps available shortly.

Will see about posting it somewhere after I've tested it a bit more, hopefully it will help other BN ops and miners to get their thousands of small inputs together to make new BNs. It should work fine for people on Windows but dog knows...

Yo! Let's get dragos_bdi some beer to keep him hydrated and healthy. He's been on top of things while bitcreditscc works on other stuff.

Got my nodes up and running again, thanks dragos!

@catotune, just to be sure:
1) Download latest binaries
2) Download bootstrap
3) Delete the folders:
- bidtracker
- blocks
- chainstate
- ratings
- sbsgDB
- smsgStore
4) Delete the files:
- peers.dat
- free_estimates.dat
- nodecache.dat
5) Place the bootstrap files in the folder
6) Start BN

Yup, the older bootstrap worked fine and I'm now in synch with https://chainz.cryptoid.info/bcr/

Looking good, thanks!

Bootstrap @321605: https://mega.nz/#!CtczEASL!NAaHCVYPVGneACHvuZyO1wT1uv9B-vzwP8BiN7Jqm7Y

The bootstrap link on mega doesn't work for me, and I'm stuck on block 321399 without it. Thanks!

You need to update the binaries too !!!

Any old wallet will not accept blocks after 321399.

Thanks - yes I have updated my binaries, but I'm still stuck. I am using an older bootstrap and hope it will allow me to get past block 321399.

how do we bid on the chain

From the HowTO written by jasemoney-thesherpa:

How to Bid
To bid you must send Bitcoins from a Bitcoin address whose private key you control. Do not send from an exchange. It is recommended to use “coin control” so you know which address you are sending from and can dump the right private keys to transfer over to Bitcredit-QT. If you do not use coin control check a Bitcoin explorer for your transaction and dump private keys for the address(s) used as inputs for your transaction.
1) Inside the Block Auction page of Bitcredit-QT you can see when the next bids cycle will begin by updating the data. Remember the bids cycle starts fresh at 00:00GMT so it is recommended to bid as close to this time as possible to get as close to a full 24 hours of payouts as possible.
2) Send some Bitcoin to the bid address. Currently both Bitcoin Core and Electrum private keys work but please test with small amounts, the minimum is 0.001BTC for bids.
3) Double check your transaction and dump the private key of your sending address
a. in bitcoin core console unlock your wallet: "walletpassphrase 300"
b. -then "dumpprivkey

" copy this key
4) In your Bitcredit-QT import the private key of the BTC address you bid from.
- -in the Bitcredit-QT console unlock your wallet: "walletpassphrase 300"
- then "importprivkey
5) Wait until the next bid assessment block passes and you will begin receiving your share of the daily bid's BCR coins
Tips:
-Your bitcoin client will send your Bitcoin “change” if there is any to a new different address, if you bid again you will have to find the new address your client sent from and import that private key into Bitcredit-QT. This can be avoided with coin control to send change to a specific address (input here same as spending address.) Generally this is not a Bitcoin wallet best practice but does simplify the BCR bid process.
- I usually put in "bid"+"date" so it looks like this "importprivkey bid121015" in this way I can use coin control in Bitcredit-QT and see the full payout for my bid on December 10th.

Thanks dragos, I'm now synced up with http://www.bitcredit.work:3001/

There was some multiple forks today. Please use the bootstrap to recover.

Here it is a bootstrap till block 309392. https://mega.nz/#!uwk3RQ5D!AWRuqJScrefXI-bB8uoL0aNE3CmxUl185JIHwFTbNyQ
To speed up, you can use this.

Tried the bootstrap from git (https://github.com/bitcreditscc/bootstrap), which got me to height 299611, got 4 connections and new blocks slowly coming in (mega links are not very practical on linux servers... though the bootstrap git is getting huge)

edit: no luck, daemon got stuck at 304039

edit 2: downloaded the mega file, but it's not a bootstrap, but a full download (ie. it will not be verified for correctness by the daemon), PM'ed to bitcreditscc for confirmation it's valid

If blockchain will stuck you could also use "reconsiderblock blockhash" so for block 304039 it would be : "reconsiderblock 0003e19a92200c348b3fe4e075d14c26b15100af1ba737f405517e5f65e6e8a9" if you are using latest client then it should start further, if older - you got to stop your client and start again after that.

hmm reconsider and restarting was not enough to unstuck the daemon, it is still stuck and debug log says

Code:

2016-02-04 20:15:46 InvalidChainFound: invalid block=00003c42eeb2f60dcf787726ce4e5bc5b8adf40f655297bd9d0378d8c1201863  height=309395  log2_work=35.952097  date=2016-02-04 15:10:48
2016-02-04 20:15:46 InvalidChainFound:  current best=001014e824b8baf8c161e8bf2a950178c98a8a062df52e0a44794697cf355005  height=309394  log2_work=35.952097  date=2016-02-04 15:06:27

Yeah, sometimes got to use it few times "reconsiderblock 001014e824b8baf8c161e8bf2a950178c98a8a062df52e0a44794697cf355005" , maybe there was some problem with these blocks, fork or whatever ...

still not working,,, any other ideas?
