"Leave Me Alone" To Stop A Bully!

 When I woke up and got ready for school, I was in pure dread.
I'm a girl, 13. I dread going to school because I'm not well accepted. As a matter of fact I get BULLIED. And I am quite tired of it to be precise. Like I said I "WAS" in pure dread, as in past tense.
The rest of my decisions today were about to change my life! Thank God and Grandma!
 When I walked into the kitchen grandma was sitting there at the table eating her oatmeal. She could see it in my face, something was wrong. Grandma could see I was the unhappiest girl on the planet. Well, she didn't ask me what was wrong. Grandma said good morning dear, As I was getting my breakfast she began her story................

and DVC has been rising since few days..

Because BTC used to be at $1000 and now it's on $400 

Why you think so exactly?

I think DVC isn't exactly going up, I think BTC is falling down!

No sheeeeeeet :O 500 would be all time high :|

Wolong appears to be pumping it: https://twitter.com/GameOfDeception

Planning to take it to 500 satoshi or maybe even more

Any news that caused todays price increase?

Wow look at the devcoin price!

DVC/BTC going to the MOON 

Did you have to change the makefile to make it compile for ubuntu or was it ootb?

The pro file will prob need revision to make it compile for linux.. I think emfox did it but had issues.

The main difference is in devcoin you have block headers which contain auxpow data instead of being a constant 80 bytes or whatever.

Refer to https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Merged_mining_specification

The old devcoin blocks and new ones should be the same as the new client is backwards comptable.

Any header parsing will break in armory.. u need to parse AND validate the auxpow header section following the spec.

The diff algo is different.. devcoin averages previous blocks.. so you need to ensure previous block data is available to even check the diff target. I ran into issues on android wallet since bitcoinj didnt need previous blocks and it starts downloading blocks after it reaches a certain date (release of wallet) so before that it only downloads headers or diesnt need to download any data at all for optimization purposes.

Armory probably does this aswell since it doesnt need blocks before it was created.

Its a simple fix.

The fees were changed to 5 coins too.. and make sure the getminfee function is right. In android its hardcoded to 5coins per 1kb tx size.

To ensure there is no way that the tx doesnt get thru due to insufficient fees. Devcoind bitcoind have this allowfree thing that android wallet doesnt knownsince it doesnt generate blocks.
 
Jag

please post your step of compiling, and the exact error message.

Okay sounds good. As far as I can tell most of the substantial changes were in 0.8.x; there are lots of places in the code that reference that version. I just started working on it, so I got it talking to devcoind, and reading the blocks from blk0001.dat instead of the blocks folder, but I'm realizing that most of the changes I'm making to get it to read devcoin blocks are just reverting changes that were made for post 0.8 bitcoin. I think it will be a lot easier once I get the 0.8.5 based devcoind built.

I guess I'm not fully aware of all of the difference between the devcoin and bitcoin blockchains, I assumed that all I would have to change is parsing of the receiver files - although Armory interfaces directly with bitcoind/devcoind, so maybe that would be handled by devcoind rather than by Armory. If I have any trouble I'll definitely refer to your Android wallet or send you a PM.

Now I'm going to see if I can the new 0.8.5 wallet compiled on Ubuntu.

Edit:

For what it's worth, I have the 0.8.5 devcoind compiled and running on Ubuntu 12.04, got the whole blockchain downloaded successfully and I imported my wallet and the balance looks normal. Anything specific you'd like me to test?

Btw is there anyway to compile Devcoin-Qt on Linux? Or is that not supported yet? I'm getting a lot of errors when trying to use the "bitcoin-qt.pro" with QTCreator.

coinzen does not appear to support https connection so i'll be unable to access it. it looks like user registration doesn't support it either. for a cryptocurrency it is important that forum discussions occur over encrypted medium so that text is not changed by third parties.

Ok, thanks for that, i will try it.

Tenthirtyone made all the devcoin subforums, so devcoin is moving to coinzen! Please make a coinzen account if you haven't already:
http://coinzen.org/index.php

The main devcoin thread is:
http://coinzen.org/index.php/topic,147.0.html

Today I'll make Support threads and Bounty threads. Over the next week we'll make threads for everything else. This thread will be watched a little for the next month, to direct people to the new coinzen threads.

Please make it work with new code which is ported to 0.8.5, but it will have to be forward ported again to 0.9.0 when we merge that code in later. We are just testing the merged-blocks are backwards compatible across clients. The windows client is in test mode, and linux client can be built aswell from source...

https://github.com/sidhujag/devcoin

I did the android wallet based on 0.8.5 aswell... are there changes in Armory after 0.8.5? Otherwise you can use this code as your client to test with. (version is now 70001 from 032501 or whatever)

How are you going about it? just adding the merged-mine parsing, and do similar adaptions that the client did with bitcion -> devcoin?

Hi

Anyone else having trouble posting new stuff or making edits on devtome?

It was fine until about 36 hours ago, but now every time I try an update it hangs - although interestingly navigation to view articles that are already published is fine.

Hey all, what's the status of porting Devcoin to the 0.8 source? From what I can tell there is a Windows build, but nothing for Linux yet?

I've been working on making Armory work with Devcoin and it looks like Armory already removed a bunch of support for older versions of Bitcoin. If I spend time making Armory work again, I may just have to change it back when Devcoin is updated to the newest source. Should I wait til the new wallet is ready or just move forward making Armory work with the current Devcoin?
