Wallet version 2.0.2 is now available. Mandatory wallet update!

Wallet version 2.0.2 is a mandatory update which corrects the issues that you have experienced during the PoS switch-over. It is now available on https://github.com/pandacoin-official/pandacoin, http://thepandacoin.org and as binary.

A few things to consider before updating:

1. You NEED to back up your wallet.dat. The software will automatically do a copy but it's better to be sure.
2. The wallet will take around 10 minutes reindexing so please be patient.
3. The wallet might crash and give an error after importing (Windows 7 has been tested successfully). This is okay - just start the wallet again and you should be good to go.

The wallet is available to download under the following links:
win32 standalone|win32 setup|mac|linux|src

Pandacoin (PND) has successfully transitioned to 100% PoS from 100% PoW!

Pandacoin (PND) had begun their PoW phase since Feb 16, 2014 and has been mined for 95 days. Pandacoin (PND) is now one of the rare PoS coins with such a long PoW phase, a duration of more than 3 months, to distribute the coins fairly out towards the community.

Current PoS Difficulty: 516.36273226

What is PoS Difficulty and why does it matter? - PoS difficulty is an indicator of how many wallets are open with many unspent transactions sitting in them. Generally, the higher the PoS difficulty, the better as it represents the amount of wallets that are open, and how secure our network is!

Can I still mine Pandacoin (PND) directly with my mining rig?

With Pandacoin (PND) as a pure PoS coin, you would not be able to mine it directly. Instead, you will mine other alternative crypto-currencies and exchange them for Pandacoin (PND) through our ever growing mhs multipool. This way, you will be able to still mine Pandacoin (PND) from the multipool, and help increase the value of Pandacoin (PND) at the same time.

How does the Pandacoin (PND) multipool work?
 
The Pandacoin (PND) multipool automatically switches between coins to mine based on difficulty and price variations in order to be as profitable as possible for the miners. For payout, the multipool computes the proportional share of each miner over rounds that last four hours. Once a round is complete, and after the mined blocks become mature, the multipool exchanges all coins for Pandacoin (PND). Please note that due to the time required for block maturation, deposits and withdrawals on exchanges, payouts for a round are processed one hour after the end of the next one. The multipool also apply a fee of 1.25%, in addition to the exchange and transactions fees required by the operation

Join us!

We have implemented a Pandacoin (PND) IRC Lotto Faucet system, where you can type the following commands on our irc channel every 24 hours for a chance to win up to 10 million Pandacoins (PND): !lotto !panda or !gimme

It works by a lotto system, where you get one try every 24 hours:

Normal payouts = 300-500 PND
1/10 chance = 1,000 PND
1/100 chance = 10,000 PND
1/1,000 chance = 100,000 PND
1/10,000 chance = 1 million PND
1/100,000 chance = 10 million PND

So join us on #PandacoinPND on freenode.net to try out the Lotto-Faucet commands !lotto !panda !gimme, have a chance of winning up to 10 million Pandacoins (PND) every 24 hours and chat with the fellow Pandas and the dev team!

Guys, can someone summarise this PND coin jump ? Why PND jump from 4-10 litoshi to over 100 litoshi ? Please summarise it in short way. Thank you.

PND was a simple POW coin and @ 4 litoshi most of the dumpers who wanted quick money dumped and left the coin. The remaining PND community wanted to stick with the coin and wanted to find ways to improve it. The PND dev impressed with community's passion despite being so low priced decided to work on evolving the coin so it survives. A poll was held by the dev for asking what the next step should be. POS is what most of the community wanted and the dev promised to implement it. The news of all this development lead people into buying into the coin again since it wasnt going to die,  leading to a price rise.

And here we are with POS implementaton with the help of a growing dev team (of 7+ members)  that helped to implement  it and working on many more features

wow not  real impressed with PoS diff.thats just crap.i mined the hell out of these to get good retorn on PoS but wont now.not with diff so high

Think about it logically, it's only normal. Which other coin has 3 months of POW and then switches to full POS? That's the "price" you have to pay for such a great distribution.
Give it some time, it will work out just fine

^This is correct. The network is more secure due because of the 3 months POW phase. Most other PoS coins with ultra short POW phase don't have this at all. This was how PoS was designed to be, so that it is harder to attack and more secured. PND PoS is working as intended.

Wait a minute.
I really don't get it. It;s full PoS right now , so why does it matter how many wallets are open at this moment?

Pos is secure from the concept being totally different to the PoW which requires hash rate and miners so it makes no sense talking about security based on the number of wallets  and not on the sum sitting in it.

Am i missing something there?

First let me explain the significance of difficult in PoS which's very much similar to difficulty in PoW. But don't assume low PoS difficulty means higher rate of returns. Each block gives the miner variable rewards depending on the current difficulty which predicts the probability of the coins to mint a PoS block. A low difficulty means the coins will easily be able to mint PoS blocks, since the number of PoS blocks generated by coins are frequent, the block reward will drop cause the interest rate is capped. In other words, when difficulty is low, the coins will have to wait less to generate a block reward, i.e. the coin will have less age so the block reward will be low. Similarly if the difficulty is high the block reward will increase cause the probability of the coins to make a PoS block will be less, so PoS blocks generated by the coins will be less but the interest rate has to be maintained at 2.5%; so to compensate for the lower block rate, the block reward will increase.

It's a fallacy that you need most of the coins in a PoS coin to attack it; it all depends on the difficulty. You can do an attack even if you have less than 1% of the coins. It's all on the difficulty.

tl;dr PND PoS is working as intended. As Bdanyo stated in 'The Daily Panda' - the higher the PoS difficulty, the better.

You might have missed what PND is.

What PND is:
1. A cryptocurrency that's actually aimed to being a currency (check out the vision pdf)
2. A 2.5% PoS coin with the longest distribution phase
3. A coin with devs that are dedicated and passionate
4. A growing comunity that actually predates the coin. This is important: The comunity wasn't built after the coin, the coin had been made by an existing comunity.

What PND is not:
1. A get rick quick scheme
2. A pump and dump
3. Some 24h PoW into 1000% PoS bullshit

What does that mean (for you)?
If you want a quick profit using some unfair advantage, you're in the wrong place.
This doesn't mean that you can't make profit. Just that measures have been taken to prevent unfair advantages. Have I already mentioned that this is why PND was born in the first place? Wink

Can we expect the X11 multipool currencies? Many GPU miner moves to X11.

It should be ready by next Wednesday along with n-scrypt currencies.
