Yes, waiting is the best option right now. Your private keys will work on the new chain. When the new Mac/Win wallet arives, and you open your current wallet.dat, your coins will be there.
Back up your wallet.dat as a precaution. Copy it to a usb stick or someplace secure.

If the explorer is right then my wallet is wrong. So should I just wait for an updated Mac wallet? In the meantime I have 25 UNO hovering about that I can't use. 

The best way to see if you are on the right chain is to check one of the explorers.
http://Chainz.cryptoid.info/uno or http://insight-uno.cryptap.us/, for example.

Check the number associated with the "Block height."

Then, check which block your Uno wallet is on.  To do this, open your wallet and go to Console > Information
Get the "current number of blocks."  If your wallet agrees with the explorer, you are on the correct chain.

Now, explorers can certainly be on the wrong chain. But from what I am seeing in this case, Uno's explorers are correct and in agreement. They have been compiled for Linux from the code in Github. Most if not all pools, exchanges and services for Uno are run on Linux and have now been compiled from the current source.  Your Windows and Mac wallets are off because they have not yet been compiled with the latest changes. We are awaiting the delivery of the new Windows/Mac wallets, which will agree with the block explorers and the exchanges.  

---
To anyone solo mining on the Windows wallet, please stop and for now use the services of the pools mentioned earlier that are on the correct chain. If you continue solo'ing on the Win wallet, you are wasting your hash.

If you are a pool operator, please check now to be certain you have compiled the 0.10. wallet from Git, and then let me know that your pool has upgraded. I'm keeping a list of pools that are known to be on 0.10.

To anyone wanting to move coins: I recommend not sending coins at this time.  If you send them between two Windows wallets, they will arrive on the new chain, and probably not in your other windows wallet. Eventually you can get them back when the updated wallet is available, but why put yourself to the worry. Just hold off sending for now, and backup your wallet.dat (which is always a good idea). If you need to do any transfers,  send a dust transaction as a test before sending a quantity. But rule of thumb for today: don't send to or from a Windows/Mac wallet.

I recommend taking your Windows/Mac wallet offline for now.

Trading Uno on Bittrex/Cryptsy/Cryptopia is safe. Just keep your coins there for now if you have a Windows or Mac wallet.

Whats the best way to see if I am on the right chain or if I somehow am on the wrong chain?

Thanks, Tauris, thats very good news.


I'm present, and catching up this morning.

The pool at http://mining.securepayment.cc/pools/unobtanium/ has updated successfully.
I will activate merge mining feature as soon as I push out an update to the front end in the next few days.

Thanks, I have always been interested in the community surrounding UNO but thought the early adopters had the biggest upper hand like so many other coins. Maybe not as much the more I read, seems to be a coin with a bit more of a mature community, which I enjoy. M/M is a real opportunity I want to explore.

 

Where can we get 0.10?  I don't see it on the github or the website.

Are there two (more) chains because I get the micro payments from Genesis-Mining? Should I reload the blockchain?

Merged mining does not work in UNO yet. The code is in the source but it's broken and not working properly. You won't see any pools merged mining it until it's fixed.

it does not appear to be so.  probably going to happen very soon though.  check back on this thread tomorrow and monday to find out more.  or follow @unobtanium_uno on twitter, or subscribe to r/Unobtanium ...whatevers easiest for you.  as soon as pools start making M/M available we will make it known everywhere

I would appreciate it if anyone would confirm if there is a pool with a significant amount of hashrate mining BTC and merge mining UNO?
I read through the last few pages and see where pools have been spoken with, but the few I checked don't seem to say that is what they are doing.

Good time to keep one's eye on The Big Picture: cryptos are the future; Unobtanium is the crypto.

I thought someone said it was crashing, got me all excited for nothing!

Yes on the mistake. I could have done a lot better anticipating these problems. I'll beg forgiveness after we're through this.

On the "crash,".... meh, I've seen worse.

EBK1000, if the trnasaction is showing on Chainz explorer, you'll be fine. When you sync to the right chain you'll get your coins back.

Just hang tight a bit longer.

Now is a good time for all of us to make a backup copy of our Uno wallets.

Dawn here. My Windows is closed. Will be online all today.

I will spread some hash on this. 

Can someone please help with this problem. I sent 24.9752133 UNO from Cryptsy to my UNO wallet (v0.9.5.9-thermoremnant) address: ufx5KUWgy7AR5kpjeJJRPuQFX8QJ9PfFuE

This transaction is showing in the block chain in block #600475 (https://chainz.cryptoid.info/uno/block.dws?600475.htm)

This transaction is not showing up in my wallet which is currently showing in sync up to block #600731

Can someone please explain what may have happened and why this transaction appears lost?

My understanding is that you should be able to merge mine UNO with any coin that uses SHA256 as POW. But pools running BTC will probably dominate the difficulty.
