is Poloniex informed regarding Swap on the 20th of october?  So are they going to swap the classic coins automatically into research coins if we have coins on there.

I'm in this loop for 3 hours:

10/14/2014 08:54:54 Starting globalcom...
10/14/2014 08:55:04 Status UpdateBlank cpid suppliedNote: HTTP Page returned blank from netsoft for

so I reset the blockchain by removing the files and start again, same loop.

EDIT1: now it started downloading blocks, will report if it syncs fine to the end.
EDIT2: yes it finally synced!
EDIT3: stuck again and only getting orphan blocks! :-(

Perfect. Glad I could help!

Thank you!

Could you explain how the Proof of Research works? I've got boinc on CPUs on 2 machines and it has been working since some days. What could I expect and when?

As I don't mine myself it's hard for me to explain the reward mechanism. If you are crunching for two days now you should expect some payments already.

Are you also reading the CCT forum? Im sure you could get more answers there.

Also read this I hope it answers your questions.

qmake-qt4 "USE_UPNP="

doesn't seem to work: it still requires miniupnpc
not: qmake-qt4 "USE_UPNP="
but: qmake-qt4 "USE_UPNP=-"


Must upgrade, chain for POR needs to be restarted from block 0!!!! https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/1331-new-coin-launch-announcement-grc-gridcoin/page-325

Proof Of Research Block Explorer is up:
http://explorer.gridcoin.us/

Is everything working properly? I had some problems getting synced so I've deleted everything from /.GridcoinResearch just now and syncing again. But:
Block explorer says: Blocks_POR: 1185
My wallet says: downloded 2050 block of 2544 (or 1197 sometimes - do we have a fork??), last block generated 24h ago, wallet stopped syncing. I have about 10 connections.


I think you might be on the old chain. The chain was restarted. Delete everything except wallet and config. Make sure you have the latest build 3.1.6.1 and sync again!

You were right! I had the previous version of wallet. Now it's synced.

but: qmake-qt4 "USE_UPNP=-"

ups... sorry.. that worked ;-)

but you need a chmod +x src/leveldb/build_detect_platform:

/bin/sh: 1: ./build_detect_platform: Permission denied

sure, in 99% coins you need to chmod +x on that file Smiley

Get your coins out of Poloniex and do the burning yourself!!!

Do we have to burn coins when my coins are on poloniex? Any plans to that?

I would reccomend moving them to your classic wallet and burning them yourself.

I think the exchanges will burn the coins they have left at 20th of october. Best to do it yourself though. ITS really easy!

You think ... anyone knows?
