I was able to build the wallet successfully, and sync the blocks. But I get an error about the Checkpoint being too old:

https://github.com/Tranz5/bottlecaps/archive/2.2.2.0.zip

OK that's odd. I built from the github code and only ended up with 2.2.0.

Time to rebuild I guess.

Thanks Smiley

I swear I cloned the current git. I don't know what happened. Either way, it's building now.

Git it built?

Heh, yup. All built. Does anyone know if you can mine from several hosts to a single wallet? It's been about 2 years since I touched this stuff.

I'm about on the same timeframe for forgetting the hands-on aspects of mining. For anything scrypt I ususally include DOGE in my search strings; Shibe tend to be prolific content creators. If nobody chimes in i'll see what I can track down or maybe give a solo setup a shot myself.

With that said. I attempted a solo mining test, and I get these errors:

Any ideas on whats happening?

Hey, thanks. This wouldn't come up in my searches. I'll build this tonight

I am just happy that the title still warns us about the 2014 hard fork.
It's like a monument to remember a better time.

It seems like that was the time where GPU scrypt mining ruled the scene and coins like Litecoin were valued at $50 each, I think I remember seeing CAPs on Cryptsy at one stage with the price of 0.00044000 satoshi per coin, now scrypt coins are 1 satoshiers in general.

Has anyone had any luck building the wallet on ARM eg: RPi or OPi?
 
I attempted to build using the git source, and altering the makefile.unix by removing the sse2 instructions. But it still fails, assuming because I'm missing the "scrypt-arm.S" file. Creating this file or migrating from another project is beyond my ability.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Ideas?

RPI2 wallet was released some time ago in binary form, read back a couple pages (also quoted below):

Evening all,

Fuzzbawls shared RPi binaries for BottleCaps-qt AND the bottlecapsd. 

If you appreciate it here is his BottleCaps address = Et4a2FrRzRxC4RAh88haNag3UaFFubyaPo

Thanks Fuzzbawls!

Quote from: Fuzzbawls
Got a successful stake on the RPi2

Here is the link to the binaries:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-oIh2h7uqLSakE4c0llTmhCYlU

Included in the file is the BottleCaps-qt AND the bottlecapsd binaries, statically compiled for use on Raspbian Wheezy or Raspbian Jessie (RPi2 intended target). They MAY work on a RPi1 or RPi3, but as I don't have such hardware myself, I cannot verify.

As noted previously, the rather large size of the CAP blockchain may result in inherent instability of the program when running on any SBC platform. Users should monitor and make frequent backups of their wallet.dat files (which is general good practice for any coin wallet on any platform).

RPi2 Binaries were compiled using OpenSSL 1.0.2d, BerkeleyDB 4.8.30, and Qt 5.4.2. UPNP disabled

Raspbian Jessie has seen some updates that aren't included in the default image that seem to have fixed the instability issues I was previously having. These aren't "extra" packages, but newer/fixed versions of the packages that are installed by default on a base system.

Users of Raspbian Jessie should ensure that their packages/system are updated if they are experiencing any stability problems with the wallet.

The same may hold true for Raspbian Wheezy, but I have yet to do extensive testing on that platform (especially since Wheezy is becoming older)

https://twitter.com/bottlecapsio/status/726529083018870784
Just wanted to chime in myself and state that the files produced from my RPi2 binaries are completely portable with other binary distributions of the BottleCaps wallet. Though if you have followed previously mentioned steps to self-compile, you are probably running with bdb5.x (in which case your blockchain and wallet files are NOT compatible)

Search my earlier posts ~6-12 months ago.  I posted a howto for a command line and GUI Bottlecaps wallet on RPi.  There are  number of steps (like locating a copy of scrypt-arm.S from another coin etc etc).

So is Cryptopia the only place to trade CAPs ? I would like to start collecting just for Fallout Memorabilia.

I love Fallout inspired stuff !

Only one I know of is Cryptopia.
https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/Exchange?market=CAP_BTC

 Cool
also at NovaExchange

Yes but is it worth investing in. It is only on 2 exchanges and not too much is going on in this thread. Also a few months ago I heard of this currency and nothing was happening back then but now there is some more activity like the added nodes and things.


Is there another thread?


You'd almost think there would be another thread but no...this is it. In the nomenclature of a related game, the recruitment radio beacon is down the settlements supply lines are not connected. I've noticed some new claimed addresses in the Rich list and movement but as a community we definitely don't have a history of huddling together for comfort or bro chest bumping over BottleCaps.

Upside is the Blockchain is running flawlessly despite the bloat - Huge blocks are splitting like Lincoln was swinging the axe without issue:
http://www.presstab.pw/phpexplorer/CAP/block.php?height=2273217 

The inflation rate has steadily dropped from the possible 200% to hovering around %137. I've gotten a few random DM's talking about Blockchain swaps, stake into zSnarks + burn, reverse CAP swap/burn (21:1 reverse anyone?)...etc. Anyway, It's all words for now.
 
Have a great day all.

Actually the stake % is 109% according to the explorer, annualized.

Bazinga! Thanks for the correction Milly. I should have verified the current rate before just dropping the fine structure constant in as a percentage value. A mental buffer overflow on my part.
