You have to open a support ticket on Poloniex otherwise you will not see your coins. I think due to the switchover they have instituted some kind of manual approval system or something, what bothers me about Poloniex is that their support is silent on why these delays are happening, I have inquired multiple times, but so far onle silence. For the time being I have decided to stop using them till this situation is resolved.

Hi,

i have a problem.

Yesterday i have sent an amount of GRC from my Wallet to  my Poloniex Gridcoin deposit Adress.
but didnt receive it yet...

here the details:


Amount: -50137.78 GRC
Transaction-ID: a0b13d043f01f8d7ec218fce595eb99c13abaadd17444f2bcb21902ae17b8af0

Status: 0/offline, wurde noch nicht erfolgreich übertragen (not yet transferred successfully)
Datum: 27.09.2014 03:53

there is also a question mark left to the date. (0 out of 6 confirmations)

help appreciated..thanks :-)

All-

Please see this draft that we will be posting in a dedicated PR thread regarding our transition to the Proof Of Research wallet around mid October (shortly before our 1 year anniversary):

http://www.gridcoin.us/guides/gridcoinpor.pdf

This guide outlines the major differences between the existing proof of work wallet and PoR wallet.

On a high level, we will be exercising the following actions over the next month (will provide details soon):

* Hard fork required in the classic wallet around Oct 1st 2014 (this ensures higher security during the retirement phase and a diminishing block reward for its last 6 month lifespan)
  for all users and exchanges.
* Release of PoR wallet around 10-10.  Mining in the PoR wallet begins.
* Exchanges stop trading GRC classic
* Exchanges start trading GRC using the PoR wallet
* Coin burning begins - extends on for 6 months
* Coins are exchanged via a dedicated foundation site for Gridcoin PoR coins (at 10* quantity)

It is a very exciting time. 

We also started advertising on Bing and have had over 600 clicks into gridcoin.us.

Rob




All good news! What will be the new maximum supply of GRC after the fork/update? Capped or uncapped?

Cheers!

FR

Hi,

The new decay schedule that starts on 10-20-2014 is very aggressive.  Please see the end of this document:

Gridcoin is doing a hardfork over the weekend, so you might want to wait till that clears up before starting anything!

Hi,

did the cpu mining change since january? At that time I had to log me in on boinc with my gridcoin-adress.

Now I logged in in the project I participate (peom@home) with christopbergmann

I modified my .conf (added the email-adress I set when signing up at poem@home). Then I startet gridcoin-qt. Boinc is running, the project is running, my cpu is completely used. But in gridcoin-qt I can't access the mining-console. When I click it just nothing happens.

The debug-file says:

Ah, ok, thank you. What's happening? T thought proof-of-research starts not until mid october ... are the 399 grc in my wallet safe?

Yes your coins are safe.  You should however always backup your wallet in case of computer failed or some other problem.  As long as you have the backup you can recover your coins.  All you will need to do is run an upgrade from the wallet upon release.  You will have 6 months to convert coins when Research is released in October. This release is to setup the rules for when the switch begins.

Make sure your boinc emaildress is in your .conf file

Thanks for the advise. I will first sync my qt and than do everything the guide to cpu mining says. I'm a bit confused about how to configure boinc ...

yeah, it's working!

I don't know why.

What I did:

- deletet a strange folder in c:/programm files (x86) named boost interprocess (I wondered two days ago wtf this is, and someone on stackexchange advised to delete it if bitcoin qt makes a problem synchronising)
- disabled proxy sock
- disabled map port using UpnP

Now I'm gonna sync and than see if mining will work --

instead of this try

listen=1

boincdatadir=D:\\speicher\\boincdata\\


Hope it works out, this is what I got from CCT, if not try this thread:

coudl you try removing all the nodes, just use the supernode.grodcoin.us


Please also note this:

2014-09-26 11:52:59 Boinc data directory is not in the operating system's default location

move it to the default location or specify the location in your .conf file

Also try using the download blockchain option, this works for me on all occasions

Thank you. I followed your advice, my .conf now looks like this:

Quote
rpcuser=christophbergmann
rpcpassword=XXX
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=32760
cpumining=true
server=1
liste=1
addnode=supernode.gridcoin.us
boincappfolder=d:\programme\boinc\
boincdatafolder=d:\speicher\boincdata
UpdatingLeaderboard=false

Note: I defined the folder of boinc + boincdata. Did I do something wrong?

I downloaded the blocks, this worked, but after it I had no sync again. Difference is I am now just 12 weeks instead of 49 behind.

Tried it again. Deleted "rpcport=" from the .conf. Allowed gridcoin to go through the firewall, opened ports 32760 and 9050 in the router.

No.

My debugfile says something strange like this but longer
