We'd really like to have BCR listed on more than one exchange.

Please take a moment to submit a coin request to Poloniex if you can.

Thanks for the feedback.
I'm sure that you made your math and you could maintain the nodes online with 10%, or 20%.
If not, take a look here.



It's not much at 10% on the hardware requirements, to be run smoothly ...

I have finally resolved to come up with a solution to the update issue, not exactly sure how to do it with the daemon, but with QT , it will give you an update notice by checking github periodically. You can opt to download the update, then install later.

you are stuck @272625
you can try an older block, eg.272500

on console:
"getblockhash 272500"
this will give the hash of that block, next ...
reconsiderblock

wait 5 sec.
close the wallet and reopen.
check debug.log after 1 min.

Guys even a hot wallet, still doing all my magic keeping up with unsynced win wallet with the reconsider stuff. no go.
.

or this one in this wallet same block after bootstrap all the time, and or the newer version of the debug.log is full with smsg blab bla

when the invalid chain found starts
 inside the wallet the explorer won't be able to find the next block
and also not go on with searching above the correct block,

You probably right, but take a look here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tbpIdurBcKOou0yyXhXfklraYUQeWkpOIk_Fht48BBs/edit?usp=sharing

I provisioned 2 BN/VM (I could probably go to 4 BN's/VM if are only cold BN's)
The daily earnings are calculated from average of my BN's daily earnings with 60 BN's online in last couple of days. If we arrive at 120 BN's online, the earnings go half, so ... I don't get to much to pay for the server tough. If the price was 2000 sat, then ... it's something else.
After that, you know very well how difficult is to maintain a working BN online with all the rapid change of all things.
And what if the Dev enforce the rule one BN/IP ?
What if the dev enforce automining for BN?

I prefer to offer an service stable, working, and available. I could squeeze 48 Nodes. What if the server has a problem, and 48 Nodes disappear from the network, will the chain still run smoothly ?

On the other hand, for those who don't know, how to do it, and sit on thousands of BCR, it's not good to have an income for them ?

Its not about piggy backing, but about unexperienced and newcomers to crypto who dont know how to setup and maintain nodes/wallets or simply dont have time for it.
We already provide this service in small scale for clients, and do know the need is there and will be bigger.
No need to get involved with any coin, this service will actually help every newcomer or unskilled users learn your systems and how to use them in real life.
Win-win for all.

Happy staking/masternoding!

While I can see the appeal of piggy backing on BCR, i don't think users will get involved in your coins just to pay something they can already do in BCR.

We will provide same service for 10% fee if paying with XQN and 20% if paying with the actual node/stake coin.
Same goes for all masternode/POS coins.
More services/info to come, our main page in sig.

Happy staking/masternoding!

IW

My feedback is I think 50%is a bit too much. 25-30 would be reasonable. You can run more than 1 node on one instance, right?

Space is not easy to find for new GUi elements so i have been combining some of the interfaces. Rather than separate interfaces for each service. Playing with this:-


The desired result is an informative functional interface with as little clutter as possible.  One page for credit and one for debit ie one will show your requests and options/review while the other shows services you are providing, closing dates and has options for blacklisting etc.


More to come

For those interested ...

1. BaseNode cold hosting.
2. BaseNode cold hosting + mining.

1. I will provide the following to you:
   a) basenodeprivkey
   b) ip of the cold BaseNode
   c) port of the cold BaseNode

   You will have a wallet with one transaction of 50000 BCR inside.
   Modify the bitcredit.conf with:
   basenode=1
   basenodeprivkey=
   basenodeaddr=:
   Restart the wallet.
   Issue on console "basenode start".
   If the message is "basenode started remotely", from this moment you can stop the wallet.
   Privide the BCR address that is behind.

   My job is:
   To maintain synced the cold wallet.
   To maintain updated the daemon to the last version.
   To report to you by email if the wallet was restarted for some reasons (bootstraping/binary update/machine restart) to reissue the "basenode start" on your end.
   To maintain an uptime that will bring mutual satisfaction for both parties.

   The price for this service is 50% from all earnings on that BN.

2. In plus to the above service, I will mine to the provided address on 40 block based rotation script. For this, the wallet must contain the above 50000 BCR transaction + 1 BCR, so I can mine on that address.

   The price for this service is 65% from all earnings on that BN.

Payments:
   The payments will be done on daily basis, preferably from other sources.
   In case that funds will be retrieved from the BN wallet, I must be announced by email with the transaction ID.

Termination of the service:
   Missing two payments without any message from you, will cancel the service.
   In case that BN is offline for more than 2 days, the service is canceled.

An feedback is more that appreciated !

Bump.

Discussions regarding development, testing, and mining are still ongoing on a daily basis in the Official BCR Slack channel. Feel free to join, more information here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.13156328

OK I had not seen it anywhere else.

Syncing difficulties aren't  (primarily) code issues either. But
you are right that reconsiderblock is by no means unique
to Bitcredit. Still, it is a nice and nifty tool, that many POS coins
ought to incorporate.

Whatta bullshit. bitcredits' reconsiderblock is regular bitcoind/bitcoin-cli rpc call. It's used for testing purposes, not for fixing issues of your code.

reconsiderblock was programed just for bitcredit as we had an issue where people could not sync past certain blocks. this allows the users who have formed a consensus to tell the wallet to ignore whatever is holding it back from using the chain everyone else is. this was usually an issue when restarting the wallet caused it to hang on the last block it had accepted for some reason. this bug is fixed but reconsiderblock is useful.
and yeah haha debug log is a good place to start lookign when things arent going right. just keep in mind just because something seems as an error or is named oddly doesnt mean the wallets not running fine.
current height is 272,050 so your a long way away with your 61,252. If when you get back it has not synced all the way, before you move to the laptop, do try the reconsiderblock.
if you have questions feel free to ask here, PM me, or join the slack channel by sending a message to LucD88 whose post can be found here:

Thanks jasemoney,

I never knew about your #3 note but will pay attention to it.

It is still syncing with 3 connects at block 61,252 but I am ok with letting it take as much time as it does. I'll be gone for the rest of the week anyways for the Holiday. If it is not fixed by then after a full sync then I will try on the laptop that has never been used to make sure I don't have a conflict with my computer. It is moving but slow but that is fine.

EDIT: On the reconsider number 1 never knew that either.

New wallet is working great for me.  Big improvement in connectivity to the network.

@antonio8,
Took me 10-14 hours to sync from scratch. This was with the last wallet released and I had 6-8 connections. With the current wallet release I get only 2 connections, likely it would take much longer. While my wallet was syncing every transaction my wallet had recorded, but which it now couldn't be sure about (until it received the block during the fresh sync which contained the transaction(s) it recorded) looked exactly like yours. Light blue. So I am thinking you will be fine once synced fully.
You can see what block your synced up until on the lower left next to the wifi symbol showing your connections.

Note:
1.) During sync you are creating a relational database that is not tiny including all addresses seen.
2.) Syncing wallets on many coins can appear frozen while they finish their sync process. Check task manager to see if it is still using resources likely it is still processing the sync.
3.) you can confirm youve gotten a block that will stop you from syncing in the %appdata% debug.log, it will say something near the very bottom about "error connect block, invalid block" theres a command in the wallet you can type to fix this called "reconsiderblock"

Reconsider block how to:
1.)Stuck Syncing?
Find the block you are on currently: either type "getinfo" into the debug console, or hover your mouse over the sync symbol to see the current block your wallets accepted.
go the the block explorer https://chainz.cryptoid.info/bcr/ and look for the next block and copy the hash.
go to debug console in wallet and type "reconsiderblock "
2.)Forked?
Its unlikely youve followed a fork to far unless you own 2million or more BCR and can control the network
Find the block you are on currently: either type "getinfo" into the debug console, or hover your mouse over the sync symbol to see the current block your wallets accepted.
type "getblockhash " and start matching your current block hash to the one on https://chainz.cryptoid.info/bcr/ at that blockheight.
work backwards until your hash in wallet matches the chainz block explorer then go one block forward on the block explorer.
use that blocks hash in "reconsiderblock "
(note to forked users: your wallet will likely be banned from peers for being on the wrong chain. when you type

Code:

reconsiderblock 0004114f397396516b4a0232bae53d401932f8ad13eab131f444b0957600fb9b

but you have no connections it will say the block can not be found. if your on a VPN and can change your IP address this is the easiest way to get accepted by old connections then quickly try reconsiderblock. otherwise search chainz explorer for new peer connections and use reconsiderblock quickly before getting banned by them.
