Topic: [MOON] Mooncoin 🌙 move to a new thread - page 304. (Read 317730 times)

We have a lack of miners - that's why all these problems with gaps.

Instead of patching and updating, it would be great to make a new wallet with CPU/groestl mining directly from the wallet (without pools)
to continue the current chain more effectively, also it would be great to set a lower inflation, as you see during the last week due to gaps between blocks only 1-2 million MOON were produced each day, and the Mooncoin price +200/300 percent... Now it's more than clear what kept prices so low for years - mining inflation...

My new wallet have 8 connections ..

New wallet have 0 connections!

If there have been similar gaps and the chain was moving,
probably it will move after some time either, anyway,
the question was if some people didn't update (as it's simply not possible to have all clients updated after each patch in the decentralized system like Mooncoin network), would they be isolated, or still integrated with the Mooncoin network?

due to the length of time between last block and now, yes.
im not sure how this was averted in the recent past as there have been similar gaps.

coinflow: please resync your p2pool daemon as requested.

Is this mandatory update?

Current Status;

"Hi!
That transaction is included in an orphan block
https://bchain.info/MOON/block/6757a1cd688f428fa23767673bde6cb3c17a35ee12eeeaec439187eac4bf52be

The problem why we haven't already sent this transaction again or refunded your account is that the balance is still missing from the wallet. If we were to send you this transaction again or refund the balance so you make a new withdrawal there would be balance missing from our wallet. We are looking into this specific transaction and are trying to figure out where to go from here."

I really thank Nova Support, even though we've experienced a good deal of maintenance with Mooncoin issues, they are blessed with desire for resolution.

Straight out of the frying pan into the fire.

Don't you just love crypto

Now that we're out of that one - we've now exceeded whats known as the MaxTipAge; basically meaning that if a client has not seen a new block for x seconds (default at 8 hours), it will refuse to accept any new blocks. I'm not going to question why this even exists; but try to move forward (other coins have also been bitten by this).
I've tentatively set it to a maximum of 90 days.
(edit: revised, debugged, now working as intended especially for pools)

Current block height is halted at 1102615.

I've updated the code to avert this problem here:
https://github.com/mooncoindev/mooncoin

Win32/64 wallet binary here:
https://github.com/mooncoindev/mooncoin/releases/tag/0.10.5-bazsealofapproval

Those in the mood for a quick fix can simply add (without quotes) '-maxtipage=7776000' to the parameters of their Mooncoin client shortcut, or alternatively you can add (without quotes) 'maxtipage=7776000' to your mooncoin.conf file in %appdata%\roaming\mooncoin - but it is recommended that you grab the latest wallet to ensure no funds are lost.

For the meantime, the pool at moonrush.org is down; as it would be unfair to continue mining while the network is effectively halted.
I've also emailled each pool and exchange personally to let them know what happened; and what is required of them.
I'm going to grab some sleep now (been up well over 24hr) but am looking forward to a bug-free, fork-free, legacy-free MOON network

All Mooncoin users, please update to latest Win32/64 wallet at your convenience (https://github.com/mooncoindev/mooncoin/releases/tag/0.10.5-complete).
All Exchanges and Pools; please update as soon as possible!

@metamorphin: cheers bro

wow...congratz...its nice to see a new talented dev on market !!! o_o

Hi all,

I've been butting my head against the wall with this issue (my last patch did not resolve it).
However, it is now resolved; no more issues with forks, no more issues with nodes refusing to start against a stratum (https://github.com/mooncoindev/mooncoin/commit/2688e5883fd54a2782876965689e5a929d1771a5).

Interestingly enough, this bug is present in Litecoin 0.10 as well; just submitted a pull request (https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecoin/pull/297).

Absolutely brimming.
Will have new binaries up in 10-15 minutes.
Exchanges, pools, users - please switch to the new code ASAP.

The last block is found 10 hours ago? 

small steps. troubleshooting.
if this gives novaexchange a bit more stability for the meantime, we can investigate further.


nailed it, good point.
i've been toying with the idea of introducing groestl pow hashing into mooncoin; as even a few years after groestl caught on, the divide between CPU and GPU is only a factor of two. even an older CPU can generate a reasonable hashrate and participate in a pool. i don't want to jump in and make the call on my own; if things decided to move in this direction i would want it to be a community-based decision.

for the moment though  

Maybe they are reluctant to use only two nodes via connect - especially as an exchange. Perhaps they see it as a security issue, because it adds a single point of failure, is the opposite of decentralization and foils the p2p-idea, when syncing only with two nodes deliberately and permanently. That could only be used as means of emergency for a very limited time, until the network is stable again.

What about the stalled blockchain? How can miners be incentivized? Proof of stake could also help, still solving blocks when big miners jump off, but this method seems to be bashed in the first posting of this thread already, even though there are some successful coins using it. Maybe time to think about new methods, like Ethereum does with Proof of Acceptance? Maybe make Moon mineable via CPU again (directly from the wallet, so EVERYONE can mine MOON, not only the really tech-savvy), with an updated algo? Funny thing is, that even bitcoiners are thinking about a change of their algo nowadays, to improve the decentralization, as a solution to lead the biggest and oldest cryptocurrency out of the somewhat congested situation now. It falls victim to its own success, so to speak. The newly Mooncoin-added DigiShield only works effectively, if at least a minimum of stable hashrate is available permanently, in order to bridle the big (miner-)fishes when they jump on and off occasionally.

Hi NovaExchange!

Please let me know when this has been completed.

crosschatter between old/new clients & no block source issue

hi all,
two problems that have slowly been knawing away at my sanity.
6 bytes in changes seems to make a world of difference.
addresses the issue of older mooncoin clients stalling sync with new wallets,
and additionally addresses an issue where there hasn't been a block for sometime, and the daemon won't allow one to be created properly.

that transaction doesnt have any inputs; not valid at all. not sure how they came up with that at all.

I'm totally ecstatic about the Nova Exchange adding the Dogecoin to the MOON market and I hope other exchanges will as well as it give Mooncoin more leverage, however, can anyone who's knowledgeable explain how this happens? although my programming knowledge is limited to a bit of C+, even less with C#, and no php/html/java etc, but I'd still like to know. The following is an email between Nova Support and myself.

"It has no confirmations, the block hash is not valid, it was never included in a block that ended up on the block chain.

I have asked my colleague to look into this and if possible make new transaction or refund the missing balance." Nova Support

Simple and intuitive! Excellent work 

Simply magnificent! What kind of records do you think users will be most likely to record? e.g. Bleutrade Account to Mooncoin Wallet, Donation to Mooncoin Foundation, etc?
