thank you gandalf86!

what i meant was http://bitzuma.com/posts/five-ways-to-lose-money-with-bitcoin-change-addresses/

My concern is,when i only back up the wallet.dat from the original wallet and not the one i'm staking with, that my staked coins could be lost, even if i can see the stakes on my orginal wallet...I'm not sure if this can happen, i just want to be sure.Maybe i better back up both wallet.dat files even if they show the same amount 

Honestly I don't know of such a feature?? Must have something to do with getting a new change address maybe, but this doesn't apply to stake rewards because there is no output in that case.

You must understand how all of this works:
1. There are no "coins", there are addresses that are associated with a private key and the value of your funds for that address.
2. If you have your private key, you can access the funds for the respective address.
3. If you backup the private key (which is inside your encrypted wallet.dat), you are safe for all future. Or you can backup the wallet.dat to have the same effect.
4. Note that in Spectre, new addresses and new private keys might be generated automatically when receiving transactions to a "stealth" address, so you have to backup those new keys as well. (Not quite sure about this one tbh., the stealth address itself is also associated with some key so it might be enough to backup that one)
5. If your wallet.dat breaks or is incompatible with a future version of the wallet, the private key that is stored inside will be unusable as well, so it is generally a good idea to backup both, the wallet.dat and the key itself.
6. Note that if you export your private key in clear text, you might want to encrypt that one manually.



If you get that error, you have to enter the wallet passphrase with the command 'walletpassphrase' first, like it says. See https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/encrypted-wallet-and-dump-priv-key-356943


With the 'importprivkey' command. There is also an "import wallet" feature in the GUI that you can use to import a previously backed up wallet.dat. You should probably try that first in the case you need it, the private key is just an additional security.

So, spectrecoin doesn't change my address after an specific amount of transactions like bitcoin?

what is the syntax of "dumpprivkey"?
dumpprivkey -password -address?
because i get the Error: Please enter the wallet passphrase with walletpassphrase first. (code -13)

And how do i import my clear text private keys later?

It's not your fault, it's a problem in the way the wallet updates the display of the amount and transactions. If you see your balance growing on the explorer and in another wallet, everything is fine. This issue is currently being worked on by the devs. Sometimes it will solve itself by waiting some time or restarting the wallet, sometimes not.



If you want to be sure, export your clear text private keys with the "dumpprivkey" command in the debug console. You only need to do this once for each address.

The devs have communicated they are a few days behind on the latest updates according to the new roadmap. This is the most important update for them, as far as public perception, as they couldn't keep up with the previous roadmap. These are the first updates on the map that was made to remedy any lateness issues. Forward momentum should be apparent to all soon.

Yes, I also share on Slack. However, it is not stable to connect with VPN. I think it is better to have it solved by dev.

hello, i'm staking 24/7 spectrecoins but i have a strange problem:

I'm using a netbook for staking 24/7 with a copied wallet.dat from my original wallet.
The balance is shown as zero but it accepted my password and it has a specific weight for the staking.
So when i look from my original wallet with my laptop i see the correct balance and that the netbook is staking well.But the netbook doesn't even show my staked transactions.

So i have some questions about that issue:
The first thing is that my copied wallet.dat files always show zero balance, even after several restarts of the wallet. (also on different devices)
(i'm using the current self compiled version 1.2.0 for linux )
What can i do about that? My fear is that i can't make correct backups if this problem can't be solved.

Do i have to make copies of my staking wallet.dat file or is it enough,when i make backups from my not staking wallet to not to lose staked coins?

Hope you understand my concerns and can help me. thanks

There is already a China channel, and I think this tip was shared there, first. 

Actuallly  out of all the coins out there spec is one fo the best  .Working wallet super secure low fees fast transactions only one that is tor enable No need for expansive electricty are mineing  .What the hell more you what

Why not try to fight XSPEC way on Poloniex to be a better player even than SDC. Later I am going to send one good formulated request

Can you share this in the Slack and perhaps start a China channel?

The future is looking bright.

Hey bud, I like what you are saying! Very solid analysis. Welcome to this community!  

According to the devs, Bittrex is not far off. Either way, while this coin has not rocketed like a lot of other coins lately, it has had a steady uptrend against the dollar, keeping up with BTC. This is a very good sign for such a young coin. I've been watching closely & accumulating for a while now, and think this coin is going to make another healthy price jump soon.

We'll see how the devs do with keeping up with the new roadmap. Their long estimates for dependency improvements, automated build script for 3rd party dependencies & improvement of the Spectre.pro file are around May 21st, so we can expect to see some checkmarks on those items and know movement is happening with the updated timeline. This should inspire confidence and create a price surge, even if small.

If they can manage the Tor obfuscation as predicted by the roadmap, by around June 18th, we should then see increased interest from China and others. Then it is going to get real, even without the completed APP. If we truly have one of the most anonymous currencies in the marketplace, then interest will peak without the APP. The APP will be the icing.

Until then, confidence in the new roadmap is the next key factor to this coin moving forward. ... Bittrex would be a big plus

$5 million market cap isn't that far down the road. But you have to keep in mind this coin is still young. What we need is to get further down our road map, and then getting on a bigger exchange will be more beneficial. For now accumulation and being patient is the way to go. 

This has got to be one of the coin that grew 2x since its start from 1000 sats. If its going to have 10k this month, more users are going to be interested and fud will soon arise. Although this had been fud from the start already.  Their features seem better than those previous anon coins too.

Initial price at listing on exchanges was 2400 sat, current price is 2600 sat. The ICO was more like an over-the-counter funds distribution which almost nobody was interested in at that point, that's why the nominal ICO "price" is so low. Just think of it as "The entire coin supply was distributed to about 100 people for a total of ~17 Bitcoin". That's how this project started. It's far from optimal, but there were simply no more people who were willing to invest money into this during ICO.

The ICO price of this coin was only 83 sat? Wow. Looks like this coin has been progressing fairly well.

you're right. but I wonder if this will bring more volume on its own.
XSPEC is already listed on Livecoin which has 10x the volume of cryptopia, but there's no action regarding XSPEC.
how about heavely advertising in the livecoin trollbox for now?

We need to get XSPEC to a bigger exchange like Bittrex or Polo. We are way undervalued right now especially for a privacy coin. We should be a minimum 5 million market cap.
