anyone have an updated addnode list?

Whenever I need nodes, this is where I look:
http://hbn.cryptocoinexplorer.com/peerinfo.

And the Jan. 17 fork must have been the smoothest crypto fork ever! Great work Tranz.

I added a bunch of peers, but why, when I initially open the client, am I only connect to 4 peers. I've had the client open for about 5 mins and it's still only 4 peers. If the peers I added are currently active/alive (which they should be since I just grabbed them from the list of peers on the site) why won't my client connect to them right away?

If you are behind blocks, the client will first worry about grabbing the missing blocks before connecting to many peers. Also the client uses the peers.dat file to look for new connections. It does it randomly, not necessarily using your addnodes right away. Usually after you are caught up with blocks, you will get a strong 16 connections in 30 to 60 mins.

Also remember the client by default onl allows for 16 connections. So the nodes you added may be full and not accepting any connections right away.

I have a question for the community: is there any interest in having a resource to buy or sell HBN directly for fiat?

In my opinion, something like that would be great but given the relatively low volume on our main exchange Cryptsy, I doubt it would be beneficial.

To me anything that can help spread the word, and create additional liquidity for HBN is a good thing. Having said that, I also agree with PressF1, the volume may or may not be there to support the additional market.

But as always if someone is willing to put in the resources to make it happen, I will do whatever I can to help.

We at EMC2 are considering it for our coin, my thought is to also consider it for a few other coins too, coins that are appear to be relatively stable and reliable. Obviously price isn't the sole factor to determine stability.

For now I'm sending out the feelers to gauge overall demand, thanks for the responses they are helpful.

I think I have to disagree with PressF1 and Tranz, and that don't happen very often. But frankly, what holds all alts down right now is that they are linked to BTC, often solely, and with little way of exit. Links to Fiat has multiple good points, not the least of which is that it decouples that link between HBN and BTC. BTC is hardly the best Crypto, it's just the gatekeeper.

I would be quite supportive of such a thing, if it's done well and transparently.

I think every coin should have such a service via their foundation -- The HBN Foundation. this type of service in-house could have a very stabilizing affect on a coin and community.

Having multiple resources for the same service results in competitive pricing and added liquidity.

I'll keep everyone posted as this develops.

Fixed, thanks.

You are welcome.

So the Hard Fork has come and gone, so far everything seems be operating correctly. Anyone experiencing anything odd?

Unick, who has helped with the coin in the past, is having some issues with the Mac wallet.
https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/27625-cant-sync-mac-wallet-for-3-weeks-now/

Can anyone else confirm they are having similar issues, or is their mac wallet working and staking as normal?

Thanks!

Tranz, I'm getting this error today.
Then a C++ runtime library error appears

I'm running the latest 1.5

Hello, this is usually caused by a corrupt block chain. It can happen during a bad shutdown.

Please see the following pages for help.

Thanks for elaborating! I had the same feeling, that 0.008 was a little high. I guess because it built up to that level rather fast.
What you say about your hesitation towards releasing a wallet that enables the possibility of keeping blocks too big I do understand.
Only a few big blocks in stead of many small would fuel inflation and diminish network security. Is what I make of it. But almost every wallet, CAP/HBN in the top ten range manually recombines at the moment so their blocks would only diminish in size. Since the default split level will stay rather low (5 HBN, 10 CAP commit) I wouldn't expect much of a change in average staking-blocksize. In fact, like before, I think you found a sound balance.

Only the difference between HBN and CAP: the user allowable max start up split level, HBN at 4 times default (20) and CAP at 20 times default (200). That I don't quite get.

Honestly the difference between them is mostly me experimenting a bit. Also CAP will inflate faster than HBN, so the extra combining in CAP will even out a bit.

Cool. I am looking forward to see how these differences will play out in the long run!

I would guess if I can not get it sorted in 24 hrs, I could just export my priv key and import it to the new wallet.

Or just abandon that 150hbn, not the end of the world.

Got it all sorted... just moved my .dat file over to other pc still not sure what was going on, does not really matter now, repair wallet found my coin.

Yeah, "repairwallet" is a Great command!

I do have the new wallet. I installed a fresh copy on a new machine.

This is my old wallet, I was just getting the last few stakes before I combined blocks and moved them to the new wallet.

Never had an issue like this before, so to be honest, was not expecting a problem...

Just odd that the wallet is staking, but shows 7000 blocks behind...

Perhaps it's connected to a node that's running 7000 blocks behind. You can check by using getpeerinfo in the console.

Has anyone posted a good list of nodes lately?
