I am now downloading the block chains and rebuilding the database on CCE.
I am having a hard time grabbing peers, was there also a network version change that would prevent the new client from connecting to older versions. (Unlikely, but I thought I should ask just in case)
Also,
Do you have plans to integrate Novacoin network hash rate calculation that was released in a recent Novacoin commit, into BitBar?
It would certainly help me out to have the developer patch the daemon, then to attempt to patch it myself, without the intimate knowledge of the Bitbar code base the developers have.
We can add hashrate calculator,
but I believe hashrate is a very bad indicator for comparison of POW and POS-hybrid blockchains models security strength .
I have a tendency to agree, however it is a number explorer users (sites and individuals) want to see, and I want to at least make sure they are getting an accurate number. I firmly believe before PPC and Novacoin were patched with an accurate calculator, people were getting wildly inaccurate numbers from other sources.
Even the majority of the new coins do not have the function properly customized and are still using the Litecoin defaults, giving some inaccurate results. I want CCE to be a place were people can go to get accurate block chain information (Yes, properly integrating FRC demurrage is still on the list
).
After I finish with the network hash API project, the next CCE project is to revise the Home Page so that every coin has its own CCE home page. This page will contain things like network hash rate, basic coin information, technical information and links.
I also want to have a spot where the coin developers can put a statement with pretty much whatever they want to say within good taste and keeping to their coin without trying to disparage competing coins.
Perhaps you can raise the issue with hash rate vs POS/POW there, it will be on the same page where the hash rate will be shown.
