I have tested staking with the newest develop branch code and unfortunately I stumbled on a problem.

It seems that the new code creates proof of stake blocks, but they fork away from the main chain as they're never accepted by the other nodes. At least this happened to me.

The UTXOs I am staking with have a balance between 600 and 10000 SLM. If this problem doesn't affect any other people, Is it possible that the new staking algorithm favours really big stakers?

Possibly the problem already existed with iguanodon1's code. I later tried it with the old 0.5.0 (pre-iguanodon) code and staking went well without problems. As I tried it two times with each version, I think this is really a problem of the new code.
I concur with your analysis. I managed to get enough time to separate out just my coincontrol+walletfix additions by reverting the PoS optimisations from master and can now confirm that a wallet based on just the master branch sans PoS optimisations but with coincontrol and walletfix additions does indeed stake and a wallet based on the master branch with PoS optimisations and with coincontrol and walletfix additions does not (even for large stakers).

Cheers

Nova is getting worse. First they wanted authentication, now my driver's license photos and my picture aren't enough and they want bank statement. Not surprisingly they have less than 1 btc trading volume.

Anybody's selling OTC? There are two people on Nova set selling orders at 60 sat and lower. If you're reading this, I'd gladly buy those coins )

Greetings From Nova Exchange!!

Nova headquarters are located in Sweden, which is quite a very cold place.
Recently though, we have felt spring in the air.....

So, Great Nova traders and trolls, spring clean your portfolio in March.
 
We have great news, if your March Trading volume is more than 0.2 BTC accumulated, you get ALL your trading fees back at the end of the month (minus any referrals paid out).

Get Some Sun & Trade on!!!

Awesome ... then I'll be testing the newest code.

I wonder - now that coin control seems to work fine, is it possible to integrate a "coin selector" into the Inscription dialog? That would make it much easier to publish periodical works on the blockchain (e.g. via Web2Web), and my little publishing tool would no longer be needed (or could be substantially simplified).

Looks like I managed to fix the issue with coincontrol that was preventing the creation of txs:

I recommend trying it out on testnet.

Given the absence of reported issues, I integrated iguanodon1's PoS optimisations into master.

My wallet is synced, everything looks fine. Relaunched it once after it stuck, but it's a usual thing.

Yesterday on my second laptop the wallet went on fork I guess, I sent some coins but they never got to the address I sent them to and explorer didn't show any transactions also. Gonna need to resync it.

By the way slimco.in website's link to bchain.info needs to be changed to chainz.cryptoid.info/slm, right?

Have you considered adding SLM to any DEX? Like Komodo's DEX. Here's also upcoming Decred's project, although it's in early development as far as I understand: https://www.forbes.com/sites/leslieankney/2019/02/04/no-more-trading-or-listing-fees-decred-releases-new-dex-proposal/#34d0d96035d9
We had discussed that a couple of months ago. I would strongly support that, because as a cryptocurrency project with focus on decentralization it's only a logical step - but it requires some development effort because most DEXs (including Komodo) need the CheckLockTimeVerify (or CheckSequenceVerify?) feature for the atomic swap. I think I remember Graham already tried to port it but he ran into a problem, so currently it's not active in Slimcoin's code.

I'm currently running/testing iguanodon1's new version - but I got a bit delayed because I landed on a fork when my client tried to stake with the blockchain not fully downloaded, so I am re-syncing now. However, I think iguanodon1's pull request to the develop branch should be accepted, as it's experimental code and I think I saw this problem also with older versions. If I hear no protests here in the next days, I'll do it myself.
