v2.0 macOS Wallet working in MacOS Big Sur
Just compiled v2.0 macOS wallet with static linked libraries. This means that the new verson macOS wallet should work in all macOS versions, from Catalina to Big Sur or Monterey. The binary wallet was compiled on x86_64 hardware, because macOS M1 chip on arm CPU also support x86 binary, this wallet should work on new macOS M1 chip too.

Screen shot of Nengcoin NENG wallet running in big sur, probably for the first time:

Here is pre-release for macOS wallet. The version tag and some URL link is wrong. But the official release on 2.0.0 will be same as this pre-release on codes:https://github.com/ShorelineCrypto/nengcoin/releases/tag/rebase0.13

Recommended CPU Mining on NENG in PC/Phone - Dual Mining

The below discord channel recent conversation touched on NENG CPU/Mobile mining best practice and profitability

Quote
raeZur logic — 01/15/2022
@honglu69 - thank you - I've been CPU mining with the cheetah_cpuminer on neng - but noticing that it is not really mining all that much - not like CHTA - so wondering if I should just abandon the idea - if it's not really worth CPU mining. Is the ideal blocktime 1 min or what? I have my cpuminer interval set at 240s.. should I adjust it?
honglu69 — 01/15/2022
for CPU mining NENG, yes, the reward is much less.  The current recommended approach is "dual mining" both NENG + CHTA, so the main profit is CHTA, NENG is extra.  There are reasons for NENG profit to be much less. mainly the cheetah effect is much weaker on scrypt,  many cheetah blocks are mined not by CPU, but by ASIC miners on solo or pool mining mode.  100% dedicated CPU mining NENG on PC or phone may not be worth it for now.
the NENG side wait time is 2 minutes,  after two minutes, "cheetah_cpuminer" will kick in and start mining on CPU.  dual mining works because many times the CPU is idle.  It mines NENG while CHTA is idle,  or mines CHTA while NENG is idle on CPU.
interverval is same as CHTA,  say your phone has 8 CPU, here is recommended command in phone for NENG in another screen session:
    python  main.py --interval 10 --cpu 6
8 CPU,  leave 2 CPUs for NENG/CHTA wallet to sync and other system tasks,  use only 6 CPUs for CPU mining NENG.   same command for NENG or CHTA on different folder of  "cheetah_cpuminer".     My neng folder on phone is "cheetah_cpuminer",  my CHTA folder is "cheetah_cpuminer_chta" folder, both run in same phone, on different screen sessions
in rare cases, sometimes both CHTA and NENG are kick in mining together, when that happens, my phone uses 4 CPU mining NENG, 4 CPU mining CHTA, that is OK for short period.  Most of time, they do not mine together, therefore dual mining gets more profit on CPUs on phone or PC.

need exchange

SouthXchange, active trading there.

Request for allowing wallet withdraw is sent to SXC, still waiting for their decision, hopefully soon. But deposit NENG into SXC, selling NENG for doge, withdraw doge is never a problem for weeks now.  Buying NENG has some issue as the wallet at SXC withdraw is still not allowed to private wallet.  For now, it is headache for buyers, but sellers are fine now for exchange.

Update on Jan 5: Withdraw on NENG is allowed at SouthXchange support
Just got response from SouthXchange support in discord,  all NENG Nengcoin  trading deposit/withdraw are back to normal. withdraw was just allowed on NENG today, confirmed by me.

WNENG Wrapped Nengcoin is normal on trading/withdraw/deposit too.

First CPU Cheetah Block Mined on Rebased 0.13.3 Alpha Wallet
Today marks major milestone for Nengcoin core code rebasement into litecoin v0.13.3 with CPU internal miner restored. Lots of dev road blocks have been resolved and bugs fixed.

* (1) First patch of restoring internal miner on rebasement failed, it restored SHA256 instead of scrypt from bitcoin core code base. mined cheetah block failed and rejected.

* (2) Second patch code restored scrypt mining replacing SHA256 properly, but mined cheetah blocks were orphaned yesterday. It turns out the alpha code had bugs on parameters which failed to transit the newly mined blocks outside to other nodes.

* (3) The 3rd patch try today has a major success. Using "cheetah_cpuminer", below screen shot is the output of below command:


Code:
~/nengcoin_0.13.3_linux_arm64$ ./nengcoin-cli listtransactions

Below are the two blocks mined in 16 core 64 bits android phone insider Userland app. The top block was the first Cheetah block mined on rebased litecoin/bitcoin 0.13.3 core code base with internal miner restored. The bottom block was second CPU cheetah block mined right after 30 block height .

Block explorer on the first block mined:

Dev Update on v0.13.3 rebase Upgrade - 2021/2022 Holiday Weeks

Made a lot of progress on the dev work over the holiday weeks , testing and debugging and coding all are ongoing on the plan based on "Nengcoin dev roadmap 2022".   The current immediate task is to migrate and upgrade Nengcoin core code to bitcoin/litecoin core 0.13.3 version.  The NENG wallet  alpha version  was compiled and is working after rebasing NENG core code into litecoin core 0.13 branch.  Tested so far initially:  NENG blockchain syncing, receiving and sending coins are all working.  You guys can tell that some of nodes have "NengCore0.13.3" version tag which are dev nodes testing there.

Internal wallet mining functions are restored and patched from earlier bitcoin/litecoin versions.   CPU mining on cheetah_cpuminer works, but no block mined yet. The initial patch ported SHA256 mining into Nengcoin.  The current github "rebase0.13" branch as of today port the scrypt algo mining and removed sha256.
Stay tune for more dev updates in the future.

Be careful on trading WNENG
be careful on trading WNENG, Wrapped Nengcoin. Converting WNENG to NENG is usually fine at SXC, 1:1 pegged. However, buying WNNEG is tricky due to the supply shortage at SXC. The price at pancakeswap is decent, close to NENG/DOGE, but make sure check before hand, know what you are doing trading WNENG.

Donation Giveback Event Ended, Community Settlement with SXC

u/NENGsters

Hello Fellow Nengsters!

The donation giveback event has ended. Thank you all who have donated and we appreciate your donation!

The Nengcoin Treasury Fund has raised 585,147,583.581 NENG and the funds will be used for future projects like marketing etc.

Through further communication between Dev Hong and SouthXhchange support, we were notified by SouthXchange support that we had a total loss of 6.3 Billion NENG on this 51% attack event and not 4.25 Billion NENG which we had originally thought because 2.05 billion NENG on the account that Dev Hong personally owns from his prior mining and open market purchase was already deducted from this 4.25 billion NENG loss calculation. Dev Hong gladly agrees to contribute this 2.05 billion NENG to our NENG Treasury Fund to cover the 51% hack loss. We were further notified by SXC support that all other members of NENG community will have no hacking loss on trading/deposit/withdraw on NENG and all the prior trades on NENG are honored by SouthXchange with no roll back.

Now that the SXC event is over we will move forward and make sure no 51% attacks happen in the future with this significant security enhancement of v1.9.x hard fork upgrade.

We want to thank all Nengsters for your patience and understanding throughout this tough period!

As always Happy mining & Trading!

Checkpoint Patch v1.9.1 Released - Community Announcement

From discord announcement channel:

RedRaider10 | [🥉] — Today at 8:32 PM
@NENGsters
Hello Fellow Nengsters!!

The v1.9.1 version NENG core software release works great as it fixed bugs in prior release. However NENG blockchain is currently in limbo as there are  two chains competing with each other with no clear winner on v1.9.1 version.  Two chains limbo issue forbid NENG to be listed at SouthXchange listing for trading and cause confusion in NENG community.



After many meetings and talks between NENG leaders, we have decided to go with the checkpoint method. The checkpoint method is where one chain is picked on code and is chosen to be the true chain in the blockchain and making the other chain obsolete. Checkpoint method has been tested and verified as the best course of action to alleviate this issue once and for all. The release will still be the same version (v1.9.1), the only difference is that it will have the readme_checkpoint.txt file. It is highly recommended for all members to re-download the v1.9.1 checkpoint version to get rid of the chain syncing issue. Moving forward we will also contact SouthXChange to resume NENG trading once they have re-downloaded the v1.9.1 checkpoint version.

As always Happy Mining!

really.................. so... you screw with the difficulty to you can try to make a CPU mineable scrypt coin..... THEN... the chain doesn't form a chain because the difficulty of the blocks being solved is too low and causing it to throw an error...........................you have no idea what you are doing.. all you had to do was change the amount it will vary during a diff reorg. ...  and change the frequency it will reorg the diff from every n blocks to every block...... OR stop screwing with it to try and gain an advantage


bug is bug.  but you are criticizing the coin design high level.  Nengcoin original design was 80:20 split between ASIC miners and CPU miners,  ASIC miners (including USB ASIC) get 80% of all block reward, CPU miners (PC + android) get 20%.   v1.9.x with new security upgrade will change the split, but intention of dev team is always to insure that majority of block reward goes to ASIC miners (including scrypt USB ASIC in this group).

NENG has more than 3 years of history,  CPU mining for nearly 3 years,  mobile mining on Android for more than 1 year.  So this is not what you think. The coin is working fine.  Sure bug causing syncing issue was serious issue, but the patch fixed this.
