Tranz, the "Current Block Info" and "Current PoS Block Info" tabs sometimes do not work. I have to click them several times or wait a little and try again. It's about 50/50 they show up or not.

I am using Windows 7 on an Intel Atom. It's a very slow CPU, so that could be the cause.

Money supply according to the debug console of the client is 8,816,651 HBN, but Coinmarketcap only reads 8,208,723 HBN. That makes our marketcap seem a little smaller than it actually is. Novacoin for example hasn't been updated either, whereas the number for Peercoins is always up to date.

Does anybody know if this is a known issue with Coinmarketcap?
It benefits IPO-Scams over coins with honest mining.

@Tranz

I finally got everything working on my dice website, for hobonickels.. and now for somereason, my Mac at home started crashing this morning for no apparent reason. it loads, then says "loading block index..." then crashes.. an suggestions?? It worked great for a week or so..

Cool deal about the dice game. What is the website again, I will add it to the opening pages.

Regarding the mac client. Not sure off hand. I do know there have been a few issues with it.

I just finally got my first Mac. It is a 2010 air book. Nice little machine. I am using it currently to run and figure out the issues with the HBN client. So far I was up to block 1.5 million, syncing from peers, and I ran into some problems. Specially a similar issue to yours, which I was able to get around it by re-opening the client a few times.

It manifests itself as the crash, but looking at the crash report, you would see this in the log:

Code:

Application Specific Information:
Assertion failed: (pindex->pprev || pindex->GetBlockHash() == (!fTestNet ? hashGenesisBlock : hashGenesisBlockTestNet)), function GetStakeModifierChecksum, file src/kernel.cpp, line 377.

This generally means it is a corrupt block index. But some people have gotten around it by using -connect switch, or in my case just attempting to re-open it a few times.

After I got past that error. I ran into another syncing issue, (I was almost done), so I closed and re-opened, then I got an error reading the block index, but not the assertion failure. In any event it was hosed. So I am now trying bootstrap the blockchain, and see if I can get to current that way..

Short of it, I am just now learning about the Mac side of this so I don't have a ton of helpful information yet. But your case "appears" to be a corrupt block index.

Anyone great at programming for android? A phone wallet to stake would be fantastic. Would this ruin the phone?

It would be cool to have one to be able to receive and hold coins. However I think there is still some work to be done for the code base. In any event staking would consume a fair amount of resources. It may not break the phone, but it would drain the battery quickly and probably cause a good deal of heat while it is running.

A good mention of HBN in a banking article Grin

Quote

One such transfer vehicle, which goes unnamed in the paper, "was not considered a sufficiently mature technology at this time, but was identified for further exploration and monitoring given significant interest in the marketplace," the Fed said. Of the hundreds of cryptocurrencies that have sprouted up in the last few years, we're pretty sure the Fed is not referring to HoboNickels or PhilosopherStone.

Ha ha the name of HBN has always drawn attention. I like it

What coin do you think they are referring to? Ripple?

Most likely Shitcoin (SHT) https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-new-coin-launch-shit-coin-sht-307419

Im looking to buy 32,132 HBN @ 3101 sat . I placed my buy order on Crypsy. So if you have a large quantity and want out. Its a little less than market, but heres your chance to unload a massive quantity if you want. Tranz Im sure you have extra you can spare to a loyal HBN lover? I would be willing to do an OTC with you, if interested. Its 1 BTC is my buy order, and im sure you know the price of btc went crazy today.

Vegasguy, you are a few weeks/days late. I have been filling the ask side for a bit with coins I had in cold storage. I only have 20k of them left, and 10k are on Cryptys at 3500 sats. I am going to put up another 10k at the same price(or higher) once the current ask fills, and the coin age is staked. After that I am down to my initial investment, which I just can't part with.

It is amazing that 1 BTC gets you ~30,000 HBN nowadays.

Guys I would like to know specific details about the hard fork, I went back about 5 pages and didnt see any information. I went to the OP and its not there either. Here are my specific questions?

Has the min stake age changed? If so what is it now?
Has max pos reward changed? If so what is it, and what is max block size to use to avoid hitting max block reward?
What other important changes do I need to know?
There is talk of buying HBN with fiat.. Tranz have you made a decision on this?
Also Tranz, can you please post specific details about the hard fork on the OP for everyone?

Thanks
Vegas

Min stake age is still 10 days, but max age is now 30 days.

Further info : https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/21832-hbn-version-15-update-by-jan-17-2015/

Max reward from a single block of coins is 250. Hitting the max reward is largely probabilistic, but given that coins don't age after 30 days, that would equate to ~8% stake, or a max desirable block size of ~3000.

Thanks Majormax. Yes that page will have the detail for the hard fork. Additionally it can be found in the change control on github.
https://github.com/Tranz5/HoboNickels/commit/d677d58eb5f1fb7d0f07df7b10ede8bb832a8890

Regarding HBN to fiat. This is not my decision or in any way in my control. I personally would love to see it, and will do what I can to help make it happen.

The 2nd post(after the op) already contains the links for the 1.5 information.

I'd also like a little help on combining blocks into larger groups automatically. Is there an easy way to do this?
