Topic: CoinChoose - alternative site to show respective profitability of the alt coins - page 34. (Read 150624 times)

I concur, I am trying to implement auto switching between FTC and LTC but I cannot because coinchoose says FTC difficulty is 193 whereas its actually 137.  Can we get this fixed it would be most appreciated.


thanks

FTC Difficulty changes.. Why do they seem to always lag behind in updates when Difficulty drops?

I'm getting this error regardless of the update time. Any ideas? The script is in python.

Too much crazy happening in that post .  Yes, it is the same.  http://lbw.webboise.com:2796/chain/Lebowskis/ is down.

I noticed Lebowski coins are not on the list now too, is this because of similar issues or something else? Thank you!

Block explorer dead.  HBN is a coin I still can't get the daemon to run, so until the block explorer comes back up, it will stay removed.

Why do some coins seem to disappear? For instance HBN is not on the site currently.

Possibly - http://explorer.anoncoin.net/chain/Anoncoin/ is where I get my stats.  Know who runs that?

Anoncoin does not seem to update blocks since ~200 blocks ago. Stuck?

GME added to CoinChoose.

Cryptsy now has GME -- LTC market.

As soon as its block explorer is fixed - must be under attack!

I just saw it come back. Thank you!

any chance you can get bottlecaps back on (CAP)

Nevermind - I see it is down.  Looks like the block explorer I am using (http://explorer.litecoin.net/) is down which means I will work on bringing up a daemon for this one as well.  It will be about 8 hours (depending how long it takes to download the full blockchain).

I'm not sure how posting a screenshot will help, it's not on the site, nor working for the API.

I just saw it 4 hours ago.  Can you post a screenshot?

Thanks for the response, but as of just now, I still don't see it, nor has it been there for the past 4-5 hours.

It was up when I looked so it must have been temporary. Was it not on the BTC page or the LTC page (or both)?  If so, what did it look like on the LTC page?

The actual reason (as it is for 99% of all coins disappearing from my site) was the public block explorer for LTC ceased responding to inquiries (could have been down or under attack).  When I cease getting a response from a public block explorer, to avoid stale / wrong data, I automatically (by design) remove the coin from the listing.  Once the block explorer goes back up - it appears again.  

I am working on, in a way that doesn't give the impression the data is accurate and, in fact, makes it quite evident that the actual row should be ignored, the coin stays up.  Sort of a catch 22, though, as now people are yelling about a coin being removed, but even if I make it evident, people will be yelling that my data is wrong.

Again, as I have said over and over - I have removed TWO coins manually since CoinChoose has launched and BOTH at the request of the coin's developers (one to keep it out of attention and the other because it was attacked and couldn't be saved).  I have suspended coins that there is a verifiable attack / block chain split until those get resolved so people are not wasting time mining.  For no other reason have I removed a coin.  It would be silly of me to remove LTC as I dedicate a whole second page to LTC.

I need to review this thread more, but what is the actual reason for LTC disappearing? I don't want to jump to conclusions on non-technical reasons this would happen.
