hello all,
quick recap of events.
was asked to help with the blockchain bloat of the existing hyper client, as cryptodatabase had pointed out it was a drain on system resources and ran slowly at times. i suggested moving to another client or restarting the chain with different parameters.
had ended up reusing the existing hyper codebase with different parameters (back/forth correspondence below):
last successful chain after coinbase generation (sent to cryptodatabase) @ 22032017email addresses removed for privacy.
confirmation of blockchain status @ 03042017email addresses removed for privacy.
cryptodatabase had forgot to enable staking in the client.
the chain had sat stagnant for some time (staking not enabled on node coind); and i did not keep my copy of the wallet open for long after sending coinbase to cryptodatabase.
confirmation the client had been working correctly, fired it up @ 12042017 and immediately started staking (my wallet):https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.18557094i was slightly irked that a scam accusation was in the works.
i found out that cryptodatabase had started work with another dev (his perogative, no offense taken) and had received his new codebase; to find he wasnt provided with a windows compile:
no compiled copy from new dev:https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.18580043to my knowledge neither the new hyper wallet has launched, nor has the coinswap taken place (as of today; 27th april 2017). i'd provided a node for it to stay on (since removed), clean source code and a compiled qt wallet (along with coinbase sent to him). additionally it was pointed out that a user had issues using the wallet on windows 7; which is odd, as my development VM runs windows 7.
cryptodatabase had mentioned his financial motivations for the wallet refresh was due to owning a lot of HYPER; and it had recently been delisted by one exchange. as of now (27th of april, 2017); thecryptochat.net, where this offhand comment was made is currently down so i am unable to grab a screencapture to show this here. this is a big 'tell', so i won't place too much importance on it until i have the chat logs.
i've been a regular of this forum for some years; i'd welcome anyone who ive become friends with to comment here to provide me with some backing, as to being an honest character (being eccentric is not a personality flaw).
