Still waiting too
Bittrex seems is a little late.

Hi! updated http://nlgstats.iblogger.org/ to include hardcore mining solved blocks per day. Also I think I got all the bugs worked out of the richlist.. was including orphaned transactions previously.. I know zip-zero about html, so I apologize for the crude website. please go to the main site and click on the top links to get to stuff.. more coming soon time permitting.

Some still mining on the old chain with 5,8 Gh/s according to http://www.guldencointrader.nl/hashrate.php, which repesents still the old chain.
DGW3 still stabilising from the hold, with some spikes. Will take a while, but blocktime will smooth more and more in time, when hashrate stays stable for a couple of hours, I think.

See how the race goes: GND=hardcore, Gf7=nicehash.

About the other chain, dont forget that less blocks are being mined and the network still thinks it has that hashrate (even though no one is mining) since there are no new blocks found.
Gf7 is clevermining I think. I will add GND to the daily tally at nlgstats.iblogger.org starting tonight.

Yes, that looks like it.
great work for the guldencoin team and @rijk where are you? i have not see you on the website's whit the update 
but never mind
I am right here but this was in the very capable hands of Geert-Johan, who did an amazing job. Also thanks to the community, pool operators, exchanges, miners. Great job guys! but never mindHe, he, daar istie
Gefeliciteerd met deze geslaagde upgrade, Rijk en het hele team! 
Geert-Johan helemaal toppie gedaan!! Android wallet also works correct after update from Playstore.
yes, just tested this now. Unbelievable job, PRO WORK!
The magic story
So. We've been asked multiple times by several people: why don't you just pick a block in the future at which point we'll switch to DGW3? Why all this "seeds down, pick a block, seeds up" stuff?
And they were right.. I would have been easier to fork that way. Everyone could update in advance and it wouldn't create any downtime.
The truth is, we've changed more than we announced. And we have a very good reason for that.
We discovered that the protocol magic in Guldencoin was the same as Litecoin's protocol magic..
The protocol magic is a set of bytes that is sent at the beginning of a message between two nodes. If the protocol magic is correct, the nodes continue to talk with each other. If it is incorrect, the nodes simply disconnect.
Because our magic was equal to Litecoin's magic, an attacker could connect to a NLG node, and send the NLG node an ip address for a LTC node. They would connect and start arguing about blocks and transactions. This would result in one node banning the other node for "misbehaving" (sending incompatible blocks). So an attacker could connect to an exchange's LTC node and send it the addresses for our seeds. The LTC exchange node would connect to the NLG seeds and the seeds would ban the exchanges address, or the other way around.
This could've been abused by an attacker to cause fragmented networks, possibly forks, and miners/exchanges being disconnected from the network.
With 1.3, this has been fixed. We now have a new protocol magic.
The reason we didn't announce this before actually forking is quite simple; we didn't want to give an attacker this information.
Changing the magic does not affect the coin in any other way, it's really only a low-level protocol property.

Guldencoin is in great hands. This transition was so smooth it feels like nothing occurred. I don't see one complaint...
Nice work /GeertJohan
Heres one: Couse the transition went so well, price didn't drop! My cheap buy order failed to fill
I would suggest everyone shuts down there wallets in the meantime, also this is a good time to take that extra backup if you haven't already.
The following exchanges have confirmed they will be taking NLG down.
Bittrex (Direct communication with Dev)
Swisscex(Direct communication with myself)
Bleutrade(Direct communication with community member)
Coin Swap have also said they will have NLG offline but don't have direct chat with them going.
See you all on the otherside

I have to say it, GREAT JOB! Most likely the smoothest, least painless fork/update I've been involved in... Nice work!
