The difficulty is still increasing even after 17 hours between the last two blocks.

If you graph the difficulty - its still heading towards the stars

but on the bright side the increase is linear - not in an exponential phase

in other words the rate of increase is constant - not accelerating

It was exponential until about block 1600280


Good news!

Difficulty has turned the corner and is decreasing............

Just how fast it will come down is the question? - and will it over-correct at the bottom?

We'll have to see how it behaves after dropping to normal levels, but it's wonderfully happy that diff is already decreasing!

The fact that the difficulty is decreasing again, that sounds good...is it?
Yes it is!

Then Alenevaa mentioned that the wallet has stopped? That sounds bad!
I just run wallet again and it's working. So it's not so big issue. But it's the first time when wallet has been terminated.

Hi folks,

I think the last few comments are a little confusing for us folk...
The fact that the difficulty is decreasing again, that sounds good...is it?
Then Alenevaa mentioned that the wallet has stopped? That sounds bad!
I had a stake arrived this morning, just after midnight...how does this tie in with wallet stopping?

Who is sorting out the issues, do we know?

Cheers,

Roister...

The last version of wallet [UltraCoin version v0.7.4.1-9-g23ef1a4-beta (2015-11-09 07:50:49 -0800)] has terminated with no (visible) reason.
The previous one works very stable under heavy load.

That's what I've found in debug.log

Code:

Possible that its trying to counter the low diff we had earlier. (many blocks insterted)
I wonder what `gethashespersec` is wallet returning now.

Now that you mention it, that would also explain the incredible report of 12Mh/s network speed. The bug in diff adjustment would keep the diff low but the hashrate estimation would still think that the diff was high, reporting the hashrate that would have been needed to have the 3 blk/s rate with the difficulty that should have been set instead of the one actually set.
Now the hashrate is slowly decreasing, but the amount of found blocks in 3 days still pushes the diff up.
Now, this is the hard part: for 2-3 days, the block rate was around 40x or more the normal rate.
That means that it would take around at least 2x40 days to balance the amount of blocks found, and so the diff to normalize...
That's not nice at all :/

Same here, wallet is up to date, 1600293 blocks of transaction history. Last received block was generated 12 minute(s) ago. Stake minting enabled, expected time to earn reward is 1 second(s), but not even getting any stakes/orphans. I have 5 active connections to ultra coin network, must be more than 5 right?

Traveling in subspace
Stake minting is also fubar. 5 of 6 confirmations after more than 24 hours. Ties up coins that can't be moved.

Yes, I got latest walllet updat v0.7.4.1-g-9-g23ef1a4-beta.
Synced the hole blockchain but the wallet says "catching up", downloaded 1600291 blocks of transaction history. Last received block was generated 12 hour(s) ago.
What is happening?

difficulty is so high right now, that blocks are not been found, check the block stats on this poolhttp://utc14.yacoin.club/index.php?page=statistics&action=blocks

without new blocks, there's nothing to sync!

I'm not sure how reliable ultrabex.tumblingblock.com is because it lost sync but here are some stats from the 1st of this month:

Day   Blocks mined   Block reward   Coins per day
113763041280
215793047370
316653049950
419393058170

71771230>10?
83040110304010
93256710325670

And now the difficulty way overshot, from 0.00024414 to 0.3663 which is a 1500 times increase (you can see it here: http://utc14.yacoin.club/index.php?page=statistics&action=blocks) and it might keep rising?

It's happened! After block #1,600,240 the difficulty starts to adjust!

@alenevaa

What is actually happening?

As you know, fork point was set to block #1,600,000 but difficulty has started to adjust significantly only after block 1,600,240. Then I've wrote that fork is happened.

As a result, you can see that chain has completely stopped. The last block was found more then 9 hours ago.

So what's next? Another fork? Or may be revert to original Ultracoin. The pool utc.yacoin.club is still working and even finding blocks! Smiley

Hey thanks for your reply alenevaa

I have no idea whats best -  I await advice from the devs and anybody else with tech insight

Something needs to be done - and done quick.

Cheers - usukan
