Topic: [Ultracoin] [Est. Feb 2014] ~ ASIC Resistant & Ultrafast 6 Second Transactions! - page 72. (Read 381018 times)

UPDATE : I left the wallet running and it finally found a connection.  Just one, but at least it is syncing.

Have downloaded win 64 setup wizard and run it.

Wallet loads up (very quickly!), but I don't get any connections, so no syncing.

Any advice?

No worries primouno

suggestion is that you should edit your BCT signature to delete:

@Maloppo - Thats an old wallet and the link is dead.


The new wallet is here:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.16437203   

with full instructions

I think so, just instal new wallet here http://www.tumblingblock.com/ultracoin_733.1_win32.zip
but dont forget to back up your old wallet.

How to update the old wallet? Just install new one over old one?

Great - thanks for testing this out wtfc360.  I'm running the new wallet on several systems - with no issues either.

No doubt somebody will have an issue - but its more than likely to be a system or operator caused issue - than the wallet itself.

I have run the wallet over several fork points while testing - and no probs either.  Fingers crossed for the real fork but we should be fine.

Cheers - usukan

It used to be under krakos repo, but i think that guy is long gone.

Thanks wtfc360

Hopefully I have steered him in the right direction now.

Ultracoin fate
« on: September 26, 2016, 10:37:31 AM »
Hello , i am a Navy veteran that has been keeping in touch with UTC since day one. I am writing to ask regarding the fate of ultracoin.
I am trying to mine this coin with:
6 gpu rig
Linux OS
bfgminer
utc14.yacoin.club
At the moment i cannot mine any utc's. My rig connects to the pool but due to low difficulty i cannot get any accepted shares, i wan to know if there are any ways around this?
Furthermore I wonder if you guys have abandoned this coin? there are still nice things you can do with it for example:
by adding double blockchain like Navcoin claims ultracoin could potentionally regain it's status as a hot trading coin and even pushing itself to the top like ethereum has. The wallet-QT should be rebuilt to make it's appearance better. If had the programming skills needed i'd do it myself but i don't.
I pray that ultracoin has not been abandoned like other coins have."

Am I just missing the link to the source or is the new wallet only available in binary format for windows?

Thank you Steven and all on the Ultracoin Team! Looking forward to the future. Will see what I can do to help.

Dear Ultracoin Community,

It is at long last that I can proudly say that after more than six months of rigorous development and testing, the latest iteration of Ultracoin has finally arrived. This update will require a fork which is set to actuate on block 1,824,237, which should roughly coincide with Wednesday, October 12th, 2016. The fork will completely overhaul the difficulty re-targetting system to be smooth under swinging hash rates, we have also made several other improvements including a streamline of the Ultracoin wallet which is much more stable and uses dramatically less RAM and CPU power. We are very excited to be releasing this update and we plan on seeing a major resurgence in Ultracoin volume and relevancy in the weeks to come. This marks a new chapter in Ultracoin’s legacy that I am honored to embark on with you all. For those that have been with Ultracoin since the very beginning, to those that may be discovering the project for the very first time today, we appreciate your support more than you could possibly know.

In commemoration of the launch we will be offering limited edition Ultracoin t-shirts for sale, all proceeds go straight to development! The shirts are $20 USD each + Shipping & Handling, they are made of high quality materials and will help you represent Ultracoin on the go as well as fund future developments. We will be accepting payment over PayPal, Venmo, Ultracoin, Bitcoin and Dash. Below are the designs you can choose from:

It has been quite the few months, none of this would be possible without the Ultracoin community at large, I especially want to thank bathrobehero for assisting with the testing phase, you will get a free t-shirt, please contact me so I can get your information. Usukan, you have done an invaluable job and are an integral member of this team, I wouldn’t want to know where we would be without you. Aleneeva, you have done a fantastic job these past few months, your service to Ultracoin has been above and beyond. PressTab, the man behind it all, it is without a doubt that your work will affect the course of Ultracoin for the years to come, you have managed to successfully create the next iteration of Ultracoin and I know it wasn’t easy, your hard work has finally paid off and we can’t thank you enough.

Ladies & gentlemen, the Ultracoin Team is solid and I am more excited than ever to be a part of this project. The future is truly ours and anything is possible, if we want it, the green phoenix is rising and I look forward to our future together. To create a cryptocurrency with the power to change the world is no easy task, but never dream small, we are an industry of pioneers, thinkers and action takers. The steps we take today can influence history forever and dramatically shape the world we live in in. You are all a part of history in the making, and today marks another step in that undertaking. Stay tuned everyone, there are more exciting updates to come.

Sincerely,

The Official Announcement

-----------------------------------------------------

WALLET UPDATE REQUIRED

Ultracoin is hardforking to a new and much improved wallet. This new wallet addresses many issues including the diff re-targeting causing trouble for miners and includes more efficient staking plus increased staking rewards (new wallet after fork - 5.6% PA).

The fork date is set for Wednesday, October 12th , 2016 (block number 1,824,237).

You should download, install and run the new wallet - preferably before the fork date.  The old wallet will not function correctly after the fork.


The new wallet files can be downloaded from here:

https://mega.nz/#F!nAVymCQa!wdJ4DMaULSptCqC5BX8fCw

This link has downloads for both 32x and 64x Windows installations.

The simplest installation of the new wallet is via running the appropriate setup.exe for your Windows operating system - either 32x or 64x i.e. "UltraCoin-v1.0.0.0-Win64-Setup.exe" or "UltraCoin-v1.0.0.0-Win32-Setup.exe"

This applies if you want to install a NEW Ultracoin wallet - OR if you want to update an old installation.

So - if you have a Win64 operating system - just download and run "UltraCoin-v1.0.0.0-Win64-Setup.exe"

Once the installation has completed - you need to be sure to run the correct ultracoin-qt.exe so the NEW wallet opens (i.e. don't use your old desktop shortcut).

Best create a new desktop shortcut - as follows

- Navigate to C/Program Files/Ultracoin folder
- Find the file ultracoin-qt.exe
- Create a shortcut to this file - and put it on your desktop.

Use this new shortcut to run the new wallet (and best to delete your old desktop shortcut)


As always - be sure to back up and save your wallet files (wallet.dat) to several other storage devices.

If you know what you are doing - you can use the .zip files shown in the MEGA download link (i.e. ultracoin-qt-v1.0.0.0-Win64.zip) to manually configure your own wallet installation.
