Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Can't afford any Bitcoin-to-buy-Uno for a few weeks. At risk of gnawing my foot off in frustration.

Was it my imagination, or did I read someone say come March that they're dropping 200k?

Price is too low.

You're just letting them potato patch vampires scoop up some cheap basketfuls!

Poor potatoes are so scared they close their eyes.   Grin

ROFLMAO!

... Oh, that's precious. 

I'm about to scoop up a cheap basket.

Hi cragv, Thank you for the reply, so I have been trying from steps 1 to 6.
I am running on windows 7, and non of the solutions you provided work for me.
I do not know what is happening, I tried to delete the wallet and reinstall and now it is 80 weeks behind with no block source available...

Would that be something wrong with my Unobtanium.conf setting?

By default in a new installation, there isn't a *.conf file at all! You can create a conf file with a list of nodes or other settings, but out of the box, there isn't one.

Two things:
1. after reinstalling (step 6 in my last post), try leaving it for an hour or more. It may find connections and be on its merry way.
2. if you've waited a while and there's still no action, exit the wallet and then create a conf file as outlined at the bottom of the first post of this thread:


If you want to try solo mining Unobtanium, or if you are having any problems connecting to the network, enter the below text into your Unobtanium.conf file. To find Unobtanium.conf in Windows, start Internet Explorer, then paste this into your browser:  %AppData%\Unobtanium
Edit the file Unobtanium.conf and paste in the text below, making the appropriate edits where noted. If you do not find Unobtanium.conf, you'll need to create one by right clicking in the folder > new > text document.

Code:
rpcuser=user     (change to something else)
rpcpassword=x  (change to something else)
rpcport=65535
port=65534
server=1
listen=1
daemon=1
rpcallow=192.168.0.* (or whatever your LAN range is)

I've just tested all nodes listed in the above and have disabled all that failed a ping test at this exact moment in time. Thus, when you use the above conf file, it should give you only active nodes.

If after all this you *still* aren't getting anywhere, there may be a greater problem on your computer. Try pinging coinpayments.net (press Start and R on your keyboard, type cmd and press Enter, then at the prompt, type: ping coinpayments.net

You should see:

then you have a connectivity issue that I cannot easily resolve for you here. Further testing by an IT savvy person is recommended in such a case! (The fact that you can post here suggests that your internet is functional, assuming it is being done from the computer on which you're trying to sync your wallet). Good luck!

I have been using my UNO wallet for few weeks, but something happened two days ago.
I would not able to sync my wallet, there no block source available.
I have try to set a Unobtanium.conf file with all the addnote and turn off the firewall,
but it is still not working.
Need to use those coin I have right now, dose anyone know how to fix the wallet problem?  Cry

Hi DDinC, sorry to keep you waiting on this. A few things you can try:

1. Manually adding a firewall exception is not necessary but it can't hurt. Having firewall off is a good way to make 100% sure this isn't the problem, at any rate!

2. I recommend backing up your wallet file before you make any further changes. It's located here on Windows systems:
C:\Users\DDinC\AppData\Roaming\Unobtanium\wallet.dat

3. Try exiting the wallet completely (unobtanium-qt.exe should not show in your Processes window in the Windows Task Manager) and then renaming your Unobtanium.conf file to Unobtanium.conf.backup - this will make it invisible to the wallet next time you open it but it'll still be there in case you need it back again).

4. Open the wallet and wait 5 minutes. See if it connects to the network.

5. If it still doesn't work, make doubly sure you have a good backup of your wallet.dat file (check byte sizes in Properties window) and then uninstall the Unobtanium client. Delete these two folders entirely:
a. C:\Program Files (x86)\Unobtanium
b. C:\Users\DDinC\AppData\Roaming\Unobtanium

6. Reinstall the Unobtanium client (latest download is here).

This post is made on the assumption you're using Windows Vista, 7, 8 or 10 beta. Please advise if on different system (Win XP, Mac OS, Linux, etc.). Good luck! Let us know how you get on with it.

Holeee! Bter been hacked! (and I am having a run in with an exchange called 'CCDEK')

I voiced the idea of P2P exchanges about ten minutes after I bumped into Bitcoin -- about March, 2013 -- and people looked at me like the proverbial village idiot (except Ian Ridgwell. Yay! Go, him!)

The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao

In May and June of 2013 I sold bitcoin on eBay.  I stopped doing so after two charge backs.  Twice in one week, two people claimed that their credit cards had been used without their authorization.  I argued with PayPal and received the payments, but I was done with selling bitcoin on ebay after that week.    

Z

Z, did PayPal ever hit you up for being a financial intermediary or money changer?  I heard they hit some people with that for seller crypto awhile back...


They didn't, but I was only there for two months and I made only a handful of small sells.  I think the most I ever sold at one time was in the neighborhood of $10 to $20.  I was really only beginning to get into the swing of selling on eBay when the charge backs happened.  Maybe it was better that it happened sooner than later - when I might have become more confident and began selling higher amounts.  At the time, I was just having fun trying to make words or things like, 0.069 BTC or 0.0666 BTC, etc.  Bitcoin was all new for me at that time.  I was buying and selling on eBay and then, Coinbase came along.

With Altmarket coming soon, I don't feel like Uno really needs more markets, unless they can bring something really unique and special to the communit (China would be very special). 

Uno still has a lot of unrealized potential at Bleutrade, with their USD and alternate trade pairs.

Quality over quantity.

Anyone buy sell or trade $UNO on ebay or craigslist?  If so, what was the experience like?  Also, is there some sort of best practices for these kind of transactions? 

I remember trying to buy bitcoin around $5 and $45 - but was befuddled by the too few avenues of getting them back then.  It's much easier today.  I want folks to be able to get $UNO for under $5 if they desire to.   


Ebay is an excellent idea - just trade smaller amounts there. Perhaps with fractions since trading with paypal involves a risk to become scammed.
I remember about 9 months ago there was a Canadian chap selling $UNO on Ebay for about $100 / coin.

I don't know if there were any takers.  On Ebay, you have to have the PayPal payment sent as a gift to a friend, not money sent for goods. That way, there is no charge back.

We need to decouple from BTC.  One of the main reasons we have had this recent fluctuation is people trying to arb BTC. We need to be more fiat-purchase driven IMO. I like bleutrade and have used it, just not much action there usually.
