https://github.com/hclivess/Bismuth/releases/tag/1.9

Code:

Supersync implemented, limited to 100 block sync at once (can be improved)
Every explorer now offers blockchain download
Configurable ledger path (not cross-compatible yet)
Connectivity issues resolved for incoming connections
Testnet protocol version 6 (hardfork)
Double payout fixed in Zircodice

Update done and now mining again

Any chance of a slack invite?

I'm playing with the idea of upgrading to Python 3.6 from current 2.7. The bummer is that Windows XP is no longer supported in that newer version, which might cause trouble for some people. I am hesitant to upgrade to 3.4 or previous, because these are already out of date (and 2.7 is still regularly updated, unlike 3+ except the latest). So there is a new poll now.

What is the advantage of Python 3.6 over the 2.7 ?

Main reason - You don't have to "run as administrator", better compatibility with the "compiler"
Some things are supposed to be faster
It should be more secure through secrets module (we might need to rework the core completely for that)
newer Tcl for tkinter/GUI

https://docs.python.org/3.0/whatsnew/3.0.html
https://wiki.python.org/moin/Python2orPython3
https://docs.python.org/3.6/whatsnew/changelog.html#python-3-6-0

Also, we could switch to Blake2 algo for smoother operation

nice job HClivess !!

Thanks, it looks like new miners have joined the testnet. Hoping for a successful release in 2017. I would like to work on sync speed improvement now, followed by the longest chain proofing as it is now exploitable with sufficient coding knowledge.

Oh really? I would have made that excel spreadsheet in two minutes.

Yeah, me too. But you wouldn't have put it on a blockchain with decentralized application scripting you scrub Tongue

That's why we do it open source, so you can actually go to github and see if it's a spreadsheet or something genuine.

Hi, there is still a forking issue when you stop exchanging messages with other nodes, but remain connected. I will add a detection mechanism for this issue before the next release is out.
