the new blocks coming at every 2-3 seconds make syncing like running after a faster moving target.

New blocks are generated about the same speed as the sync

There are about 430k new UTC being generated a day for the last 3 days - and seems for a day longer to get to block 1,600,000

Thats going to be over a million new UTC above what should have been mined.

Happy Xmas miners - enjoy your bonus



 
Action Required - Blockchain Fork

Due to an error in the compilation of the latest wallet update, the Ultracoin difficulty retargetting algorithm has caused the difficulty to remain extremely low, this has caused a spike in the block generation rate. In order to correct this anomaly, a fork in the blockchain is required. Please download the following Windows wallet at the link posted below, Macintosh and Linux wallets are in development for release. The fork is set to initiate in 24 hours from now at block 1,600,000 around late afternoon or early evening EST on Tuesday, November 10th, 2015. The exchanges and pools have been notified. If you have any questions feel free to e-mail Steven at [email protected].

@Steven and Kracko....

> Please give us good information about the steps in the procedure to download the new release, this for all the beginners and noobs as me !

Go ahead and open your File Explorer.
Type in %appdata% in your header bar and click on Ultracoin.
Copy the wallet.dat and back it up in a separate file directory, such as your Desktop.
Download and run the new Ultracoin wallet software.
Once completed, you shouldn't have to redownload the new blockchain unless it is past block 1.6MM.
If it is after block 1.6MM, you must go back to the %appdata% folder, click on the Ultracoin folder, and delete everything in it EXCEPT your wallet.dat.
Run the latest version of the Ultracoin wallet software.
At this point you will redownload the entire blockchain and be on the latest chain.

The latest wallet revision source is published at https://github.com/Kracko/ultracoin-2.git.  Pool operators and exchanges please update your wallets.  A fork is scheduled at block 1,600,000, which should be sometime tomorrow, early afternoon or evening.

The Windows wallet is up http://ultracoin.net/dl/UltraCoinQT_win32_v7.4.1-9.zip.  You may want to update before the fork happens as you will most likely need to redownload the whole chain if you don't.

The mac wallet will be out later today.

1500-2500 kh/s network rate, where's that coming from? i have 4 gtx 970 and i have 33kh/s!
i want to learn to program fpga's, shouldn't be too different than coding my old Commodore 128 ASM Cheesy


Wow, that's over 8kh/s per card!

Yeah, 970's are really efficient for scrypt-jane due to their 4gb mem size, i got around 1100 h/s on NF16.
I can't make them use all of it on NF14, if i try to raise the amount of threads to make use of the rest of the mem it starts dropping performance.
May be there's someone who has a better config.

Best regards!

There was a bug in the wallet that was created during the compiling process, the wallet version that was tested had a few fields that were slightly tweaked compared to the wallet version that was released. It is unfortunately going to require another fork. The exchanges have already been notified, expect a new release within the next few hours, the fork will occur tomorrow night. Please update as soon as the new wallet is released. The update will also be blasted out on all social media channels and the mailing list, I ask everyone to stay posted for the fork. In the meantime mining is still functional although the block rate is much higher than usual and the amount of orphans will be astronomically high.

@Kracko
@Steven

Guys, if you are going to release new fork, please, set new fork point (block height) 24 hours ahead to the future. For example, 1600000 or greater.
So that everyone has enough time for wallet update.

These are hard news, i don't know what others think, but with this extremely high block rate, the dump after the exchanges enable the wallets again will also be astronomical...
I see dead people...

Let's hope it's not so much as to drop utc even further down...

We have identified the problem and unfortunately it is going to require another update, please donate any extra hash to the following address to help assist in testing. The more hash we have the faster we can push out the new update which should be within the next 24 hours.

I have been hashing there and this is how it looks;

This update you are talking about, is it another fork, or a wallet update?

Three days I trying but still nothing, I only get hw!
I have 3x280x 8gb memory, and I use 3.5.0-yac2

For n14 earlier I used these settings, it worked great, but now only hw

setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
yacminer.exe --scrypt-chacha --worksize 128 -g 1 --lookup-gap 8 --buffer-size 2590 -R 5120 -o stratum+tcp://utc.yacoin.club:3413 -u x -p x --nfmin 14 --nfmax 14 --starttime 1388361600


Don't use original UTC --starttime option. UTC14 uses fixed NF14. See configuration example in the support thread..

Public stratum port difficulty has been changed to 4  diff 4 should be set too high 2

Increasing port difficulty is a forced move. Because the pool is running under extreme load right now.
