This is caused by two wallets that aren't compatible, right? So it forks the coin due to people both mining on the old wallet and the new wallet? I've seen that happen before.

So last couple days a growing problem has emerged and it seems were forked i think.

This has been getting worse and worse since the recent wallet update.

If anyone is invested in Max coin etc they may want to pay attention..
not too mention the fact there had not been a wallet update etc for quite some time.

seems the drama will continue on..

edit:
ok so i think they may have it sorted out ?
a new update was just pushed out with info on how to get it going..

or
[ANN][MAX] MaxCoin - MANDATORY UPDATE 9.2.1 - Sept 6

link for windows wallet (installer)
https://github.com/Max-Coin/maxcoin/releases/download/v0.9.2.1/maxcoin-installer.exe

here is info i quoted..

Quote
MaxCoin hard fork’d yesterday at block 600k prompting a deal of chaos. This was caused, in equal measure, by a large number of users and mining pools not upgrading to 0.9.2 and by a rogue checkpoint in the network, preventing users from synchronizing fully. To remedy this a fix has been issued and is available to download from the MaxCoin GitHub repository.

Download the 0.9.2.1 client

The latest client can be download from https://github.com/Max-Coin/maxcoin/releases/tag/v0.9.2.1. Please download the version for your Operating System and install it onto your computer.

Reset the stored checkpoint

Once the new client has been installed you’ll need to remove the old, rogue checkpoint. This is done by issuing a “resetcheckpoint” RPC command. You can do this in MaxCoin-QT by navigating to Help > Debug window, clicking the Console tab and then typing the command into the text box at the bottom of the window.

You can verify that this has worked correctly by issuing a “getcheckpoint” RPC command. This should have the following

OUTPUT:
Code:
    {
        “synccheckpoint” : “0000000000057faf782713f21104bffcfc8cc9107df88dea399b06ffe3e0d6c4″,
        “height” : 557625,
        “timestamp” : 1408634353,
        “subscribemode” : “enforce”
    }

Quote
If your subscribemode setting is set to “advisory”, please remove the “enforcecheckpoint=0″ line from your maxcoin.conf file.

After a few minutes you should see your wallet begin to sync once more. If the problem persists, please close the wallet and re-open it with the “-resync” flag.
