Upgrading Krugercoin 0.9.3 to Krugercoin 0.10.2


Are there any other people out there that will be interested in upgrading Krugercoin?

There were unfortunately a problem with the people that I have paid to do the upgrade Krugercoin 0.9.3 to Krugercoin 0.10.2

It would have been nice to release a new version by 10 October to celebrate the birth date of Paul Kruger.

Anyway, send me a pm or post here to discuss the way forward.

Thank you,

FreiExchange is a modest but trustworthy exchange. We have are proud to list an old coin like Kruger coin.

Why do we have low volume? We didn’t ask for a listing fee, we don’t prop-up markets in any significant way, nor do we create fake volume. We count on the community to support their coin.

At this point in the alt-coin winter, please come and help us support your coin by helping fill up the order books at our exchange to make a market. We don’t have any trading fees.

Thanks

no active miner?

@QQ6693606

What do you mean with - no active miner? as all transactions are done without any issues?

Welcome to the new year!

Well that was a bit late for that but anyway, I found that https://www.blockexplorer.tk/ (http://207.148.31.116/) are not working and at first left it at that. Later I decided to investigate as it is the only know blockexplorer for Krugercoin that I use to make sure my nodes are updating correctly. Eventually found that the free domain was suspended. Left it at hat again and then the flame started to burn again I then decided to approach freenom for an answer.

It boils down to it that one of their trusted security partners decided to suspend the domain and no one are unable to provide any clear reason for this - see blow for reply;

Thank you for your message.

Upon inspection, we have found that your domain name has been removed by one of our trusted security partners.
Because we completely trust these companies and individuals (we wouldn't call them trusted partners if we didn't) and their reasons for removing domain names, we will not be able to restore the domain(s) to your account.

Possible reasons for having your domain name removed by our security partners include but are not limited to:
- phishing;
- spreading viruses and/or malware;
- copyright infringement.
These are violations of our terms and conditions that we do not allow.

Kind regards,

Freenom Support

So now I have send them a reply, not that I expect that they will admit their failure, corruption, unethical, behavior etc..,

Quote
I appreciate your reply, you should however seriously have a re look at your trusted security partner that suspended this domain as they are in the process of damaging your reputation.

The website https://www.blockexplorer.tk are;

1) Is not a phishing site as it does not collect any user information nor does it send or receive emails as a matter of security and integrity for server safety.

2) Is not spreading viruses and/or malware as there are no interaction with any visitor nor does it contain any scripts or software that is capable of doing so.

3) Is not infringing on any copyright as for the code use on the site is open source and the deployment of the software on this server complies with the license agreement of the author.

In addition, the name block explorer or blockexplorer are not copyright protected as it is commonly used by the crypto currency community and the phrase was coined by the original developer and visionary of Bitcoin.

Furthermore, the service that run on this site is the block explorer for Krugercoin, a unique crypto currency and the name in it self also does not infringe on any copyright or trademark as most likely and erroneously contemplated by your trusted security partners. The copyright and trademark that they mostly think of is Kruger Rand that is the trademark of the South African Mint and copyright also vest in South African Mint - there are no trademark name or copyright known as Krugercoin.

You really do not have to reinstate the domain as your supposedly trusted security partner is engaging in noncompetitive and corrupt behavior for suspending this domain and is depriving a small community of their right to identify with them self. My personal believe on this suspension is that it is politically an racially motivated and has nothing to do with any of the reason sited.

I take it that you will understand that I will no longer be able to promote or recommend your services and will not proceed with my planned upgrading any of my other free domains to paid domains.

Thank you,

Sorry for any inconvenience this cause to anyone using the site - it is still available via the ip address http://207.148.31.116 ia any one need to access it.

The krugercoin.tk are also removed and is now available as a "SPECIAL" domain at a premium.

Anyway, lets see what the future hold and move to a better domain extension and registrar.

Was the Krugercoin founded in South Africa?

Does it have any relation to the Kruger Park?

Louis,

Unfortunately no on both counts - it was some guy from India who saw an opportunity to make some money, created the the coin and then dropped it like a hot potato when he though it reached the highest value. Fortunately there are a few people out there that still support the coin and is actively mining the coin to keep it alive.

I still would like to see the coin succeed on such a level that it would be useful in South Africa.

You would find some information at;

https://web.archive.org/web/20140208001152/http://krugercoin.co/main/

PM me if you want to work on this coin with me.

Some good news

 - www.yobit.com is up again - block height 8849982
 - www.novaexchange.com - I do not have an account

Hello, Nova's current block height is 8924397. Its showing synced. Nova is not going to delist this coin and they opened deposit for all coin including KGC. If you have account in old nova you can now trade deposit and withdraw KGC in nova. Smiley

Nice script! I would go with at least 1GB RAM, so it's not swapping to hell and back. I've had some odd experiences (like internal compiler errors, or signal 11 core dumps) when trying to compile coin daemons on a memory constrained VPS.

It is correct, this script is meant to be for Ubuntu 14.05 Desktop users that want to compile the Ubuntu Graphic User Interface - can be done on their own machine or virtual server. Compiling Windows Binaries on a machine with these specs will take most likely two days. I prefer 6 cpu /16 ram as it only take a few minutes to compile the Ubuntu Graphic User Interface and about 20 minutes to compile the Windows Binaries. Would be nice to know if this will work on the Windows Subsystem for Linux.

This script will install and compile the Linux graphic user interface for krugercoin-qt

You can build on a Virtual Private Server:

Server:Ubuntu 14.04 x64
CPU: 1 vCore
RAM: 512 MB
Size: 20 GB SSD

Referral link below - if you really appreciate open source  
http://www.vultr.com/?ref=7587570 - November only
https://www.vultr.com/?ref=7225127 - Anytime - recommended

The $3.50/mo [$0.005/h] server would be fine and it will take approximately 40 minutes to complete.

To exit, type

If you use Ubuntu Desktop, navigate to your folder in Terminal and type
Code:
sudo krugercoin-qt
and the graphic interface will open.

This script will by default create the krugercoin.conf file in root and the code $(uuidgen) by rpcuser and rpcpassword creates a universally unique identifier for each value in the form of xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxx - change the script or move the .krugercoin folder from root to your home folder. You should know what to do if you are using Ubuntu Desktop.


Some appreciation would be nice, just check out the nice Krugercoin address below!

I've compiled the daemon per the above instructions (thanks!) and I'm syncing now. I see 2 connections that have block height of 8877770.

45.32.163.218:8771
70.169.221.184:8771

Somebody must be mining on the v09.3 network.

edit: now I'm mining on the 9.3 network


Congrats on the mining - I naively believed that nodes are the back bone of maintaining any chain, after the fiasco of the last month, I now understand the symbiotic relationship between miners and nodes much better. You should do a short tutorial on mining and post it here for other people who are not willing to ask in the open - I can not keep up with the PM requests for assistance.

I have asked https://www.atomminer.com/ to add Krugercoin to their pool - their FPGA Crypto Miner will support scryt mining and it would be ideal for mining Krugercoin. Very low power consumption and easy to maintain. BTW - they are looking for distributors if anyone is interested, just join them on Telegram

45.32.163.218:8771 is just a node running 0.9.3 and 70.169.221.184:8771 could be either an exchange or a miner.

I have added the necessary check points up to block height 8800000 in 0.9.4 and will see how fast the synchronization is now.

Tnx,
