Wallet is back open for withdrawals/deposits....

thanks,

Myeagleflies will hopefully clarify, but to me this would not work as what happened was there was a snapshot taken and all of the coins distributed onto the new bockchain as they were in the old one. So you transferred them after the copy back, the coins won't be there.

Will it not work with the unlockwallet command? I can't remember what it was offhand.

I am in a similar situation - I have 100,000 NOBL from a while ago, and I just saw on Twitter yesterday that everything moved to POS (I've been out of the loop!).

My existing POW wallet is encrypted, so I tried the method of sending the balance to a new (unencrypted) wallet address, using the old POW client.

This seemed to work - here is the receiving address in the block explorer:
https://chainz.cryptoid.info/nobl/address.dws?9Y8c7jZWyYgzKbnV94KmMDVErobyGphuKh.htm

However, when I start up the new wallet - either in the old client, or in the new client using -salvagewallet after copying the unencrypted POW wallet to Appdata\Roaming\NoblecoinPOS - I don't see the 100K balance.

Does anyone have any ideas for me? Thanks!

Glad to have been of service

Responded to his message. Thanks!

I got a hold of C-Cex support, you should get a pm anytime soon.

No worries. I have added "real world" example to my post which should help you grasp what is happening under the hood.

Thanks!

Brief description how POS II works

Explanation of Balance and Stake sections
After wallet is started everything is under Balance. Your wallet begins attempts to stake.
Then if it manages to stake a block money from this particular transaction moves under Stake.
It stays there for 70 blocks until reward matures.
Then it moves back under Balance and this money is available for staking again.

Regarding CPU power usage- it depends on how many transactions you have in your wallet. POS II design is that every successful staking splits transaction into two halves. Hence transaction sizes become smaller and smaller which means there will be more and more transactions competing with other wallets. This increases PoS weight and helps secure the network.

However the more transactions you have the more CPU power is used. So you can see both pros and cons. I do not know how many transactions you have and what computer you are using. If CPU usage is too high you can generate new receiving address and send all money from your wallet into this single address. This way you will have just one transaction which will be staking so CPU usage should drop.

Apart of that there may be other reasons why CPU usage is high. Common one is not enough RAM etc.


Example:

1. Let's say you have 10 mil of coins in one transaction.
2. If you keep staking it after a while staking event happens.
3. 10 mil is divided onto 2 transactions (5 mil + reward) each (this moves under Stake section)
4. After 70 blocks 10 mil + reward is moved back under Balance. The only difference is now you have 2 transactions of 5 mil each which try to stake.


Real world example:
https://chainz.cryptoid.info/nobl/block.dws?2834.htm

From (amount) -> 9pyknnPjfJ9cQFbt7ovZS44tTUBbiea73m   500,057.18 NOBLES
Created   30.39405957 NOBLES

You can see "From" transaction was split into two transactions:
- 9pyknnPjfJ9cQFbt7ovZS44tTUBbiea73m   250,043.78 NOBLES
- 9pyknnPjfJ9cQFbt7ovZS44tTUBbiea73m   250,043.79405957 NOBLES

Sorry if my question is dumb. But its my first coin with POS and i dont really get it.

About 7h ago my wallet showed a few k as Balance and 98% of my Coins under Stake.

About 5 min ago there where 80% Balance and 20% under Stake.

And now there is no Stake Coins and all under Balance.

I got mined coins. But i dont get the Balance/Stake. Should not everythin be at Stake that is older than 2h??

Also should the PC need that much CPU Power while staking? Or should i reboot him if something else uses the CPU???

On that note - is anyone capable of modifying our OP? We should change it to provide information about PoS, remove outdated links to pools etc.

Any takers?

Thanks to myeagleflies and to all who helped with the process!

The new Noble era has begun

I think you miss library for GMP

ii  libgmp-dev:amd64        2:5.1.3+dfsg-1ub amd64            Multiprecision arithmetic library developers tools

This 'libgmp-dev' is what I have installed under kubuntu.


Edit: I have just added info about this library to docs: https://github.com/eagleflies/noblecoin/blob/eagle/doc/build-unix.txt#L67

Thank you!

That is approximately what I did to compile other wallets (NVC, PPC, XPY, BLK, HYP)

But for NOBL, I had to try something else.

First attempt:

$ qmake

One of the messages states:

Project MESSAGE: Warning: unknown QT: widgets

$ make

This stops almost immediately with a message:

cc1plus: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-msse2’
Makefile:703: recipe for target 'build/bitcoin.o' failed
make: *** [build/bitcoin.o] Error 1

Second attempt:

$ qmake

Now I edited the Makefile and removed the ‘-msse2’ flags

$ make

Now the compilation returns other error:
src/uint256.h:14:19: fatal error: gmpxx.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
Makefile:703: recipe for target 'build/bitcoin.o' failed
make: *** [build/bitcoin.o] Error 1

My Linux knowledge is limited but I would like to learn how to overcome this.

Can someone, please, help me?

Thanks

The community PoA campaign is still running, but only until tomorrow. So if you fancy up to 10k fancy shiny new PoS NobleCoins check it out.

http://promoplugs.com/Campaign.aspx?CID=147

Please make sure the receiving wallet is on the new blockchain or you won't get em

Edit: I'll leave the next round of payouts until 6pm GMT so people have time to get their wallets sorted.

We have a balance problem that we're working out with the dev...

Sorry for the delay.

i don't have a raspberry, but would like to know what errors do you see? try to setup up like in this tutorial http://blog.pryds.eu/2014/06/compile-bitcoin-core-on-raspberry-pi.html

Hey guys,

Is anyone working on a wallet for the Raspberry Pi?

I tried compiling both the qt and the headless NOBL wallets on my RaspPi 2 but I bumped into a lot of errors.

I would be great to have a qt-wallet able to stake NOBL on a low power device that can run forever, adding valuable nodes to the network.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

I'm happy that you're happy

Here's my address: 9acVmwMxq8nKfpvvfwtKu7Vp6xE5dhHx7o

Thank you!

Yes i was ready, but choosed the easy way. Luckily i did one transaction before the exchange wallets
were in maintenance, so i'm minting and mining since last night.
Really great job , you have no noble donation adress for a small tip ?
