Why has this fact gotten lost?!?

props, +1's, and thanks Digger for driving this to the forefront.

BTW, good to see your name here again.

Well spoken!

to fixup Abe with an existing mysql db of blocks up to 680K
edit Abe/Datastore.py to change the magic num

then in mysql:

Congrats guys now the real work starts

Great news indeed, It appears the last problem has been fixed not by papering over the problem, but by a fundamental change in the code. There was some bitching by a newbie about lack of progress a little earlier, which I found ironic as I had noticed SXC had picked up a few more merchants via coinpayments.net around the same time.. at the end of the day isn't that what cryptos are about?..Finally I noticed the official twitter account is approaching 6K followers, thanks to Monica's efforts.

I suppose the reason that a lot of discussion and announcements aren't reaching this thread is simply because the SXC community has become too big for a thread, and unless you visit it's forum, you aren't going to be able to gauge what progress is being made.

Milestone!

At block 680000, the magic number switch kicked in. We are now officially on our own unique network.
The switch occurred without incident, but as Nerull noted, P2pools experiencing gobs of orphans/rejects will need to switch to the new magic number:

FA CE 69 69

I think we should all be very encouraged by this. Any lingering desync issues should be completely trivial at this point, and the codebase is rock-solid stable.

Moving onward, sxcer is hot on getting the next client, which will be based exclusively on bitcoin .9 codebase ( <--- WOW ).
In addition to that, more feartures are in the works. Also, we have been blessed with new talent in the dev team, which means we are also working on more infrastructure.

Many of you know that I have stepped back in my role for sexcoin, but any rumors that I've abandoned it are wholly false. I'm very happy to see the commitment and hard work of everyone that has been working to make sexcoin a SOLID, STABLE crypto-currency. This milestone is HUGE!

For anyone running a p2pool node since the magic number change you have to edit p2pool/bitcoin/networks.py P2Pool_PREFIX to the following

bitcoin .9 porting status... sexcoind on linux syncs

that should fix it

Huh?

Am on V 6.4.6 and can't download the block chain past the 14th of May. (even added a couple of addnodes from the first page without any success)

If anyone out there writes for or knows some good blogs/news stites who might be interested in the Tiffany Snow contest could you please contact me either in this thread or at [email protected]

Help spread the word! Also if you haven't entered the contest to win an hour of 1 of 1 hotness (real life or webcam) enter now for your chance to enter her!

On an unrelated note, that's good news about the android wallet and the client update!

bitcoin .9 port had fully synced the blockchain after implementing a new CForkParams class which took a weeks worth of discussion here:
http://www.sexcoinforum.org/index.php?topic=557.45

ending about when your weekly timeframe started. What took devs attention then was some weird mining/block time patterns seen on the blockchain.
That was discussed for a few days here:
http://www.sexcoinforum.org/index.php?topic=597.0

There's plenty of graphs and rambling posts by myself at least there.... harldy "nothing" for a week.
In then end  I have written up our question about the KGW and attempted to get them to user Dr.KimotoChan at the megacoin forums.

After that I started working on buildbot setup here: http://buildbot.sxcexplorer.com/  with status in #sxcdev on freenode.

I'm working on buildslaves on windows and osx now.... and i still need to script up the build process itself so i'm not almost done or anything.

plus we're all still waiting for block 680K where our magic number switches and we can focus on pushing out our .9 port with a single magic number and proceed towards only having the one single magic number in our code eventually.

digdug is actively looking into an android wallet port... he is not posting anywhere about it, but it's still happening.

your comments remind me of user "stick" on the sexcoinforum.org minus the fact that he had a laundry list of dream features that he said he could implement in a month or some super fast time line that made him look 100x as powerful as all the sexcoin devs put together.

Sexcoin has never been a coin that anyone working on expected to go kaboom. There was a great deal of discussion in the early days about how best to grow the coin. One of the things we realized is that because of what the coin is, adaptation was probably going to be on a similar timeline to bitcoin and litecoin ( YEARS! - its 1 year old today ). If you are impatient for the coin, do something besides bitch at the devs. Go set up a retail site that accepts sexcoin, don't just jump on cryptsy and trade. Set up a smartphone payment system. Contact Manwin and code in their sexcoin gateway to handle payment for all their sites. Publish your name so that escorts can use you as an escrow service. Cut a deal with an established bank to use as an ACH gateway to handle coin transactions for a coin named "Sexcoin". Otherwise, put your diaper back on and give your coins away.

soz that in 1 week nothing except for new fb page and a new competition to promote the fact that there are escorts out there accepting the coin. Rome wasnt build in a day and all that

I'm not part of the dev team - just helping out. And you can fuck off!

One week passed , the dev is so busy working on  stuff that nothing , not even a tiny announcement happened.
A new Facebook page? Common , that is laughable.

I announced a new facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/sexcoin.official - like it and share!

I would of taken over the existing page but was informed that everyone is locked out of it. Am happy to give admin access to anyone else that wants to contribute to this new page, but for now, the sexcoin forum still directs to the old one, no-one has tweeted about the new page etc. So if you want to list it as an ongoing problem just be aware that attempts were made to address the issue.

I was always really into sexcoin so I'll keep holding and maybe in the future I'll be able to buy an advanced sex robot for like 1000 SXC.

Or maybe I'll set up sex workshops for bored couples and get paid in SXC for this great service.

There are a lot of questions around the very first release. Chinsu released the code in windows binary format and the source was only available via a google drive download. This code had fragments of royalcoin code. It also 'crashed more than a stock car' and would not build in Linux. Our suspicion was that Chinsu had hired a dev to do the code, and so there was code from many different coins showing up. When nomaxpi, digger and I started working on cleaning up the code, the copyrights were there.  Our focus was on getting the code running, not chasing down what came from where. As far as I was concerned, if royalcoin had a copyright tag, then there was probably royalcoin code somewhere in there, so the copyright stayed.
