I agree @cornhodlr. Also note that I originally offered help with hosting. I'll help fixing broken links because donors were very generous with the Devcoin Foundation, yet I'm still doing volunteer work, so it will take some time. I'll keep you updated! - develCuy |

UPDATE: We can make 22.x talk to old 0.8.x by deactivating CSV (BIP68, BIP112 and BIP113) and changing the default transaction version to 1. I did some testing and seems to work! Just pushed the change to the repo. If you wish to give it a try, please clone and build again. ORIGINAL Bad news, Bitcoin Core 22.x is not compatible with 0.8.x transactions and the reverse, need to patch net.cpp. Another approach might be to implement relay-only nodes able to support both 0.8.x and 22.x - develCuy New Bitcoin Core's txfee computing is a bit complicated and hard to match 100% with Devcoin's. Also, generated transactions aren't relaying due to some incompatibility: ERROR: CTxMemPool::accept() : nonstandard transaction type
The error above happens when 22.x client tries to relay a tx to a 0.8.x node, need to change a few more parameters (I hope). - develCuy ...Yup -reindex seems to have done it. Wallet now shows same balance I had before so looks okay so far, thanks!

Wonderful! I did try some transfers but max fee seems to be setup too low. I'm working on a fix. - develCuy |

My fault, libcurl wasn't included in all Makefiles and you are doing a full build. I pushed the fixes already, can you try again? - develCuy libdevcoin_server.a(libdevcoin_server_a-receiver.o): In function `getHttpsText(std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > const&)':

Hi Mark! Thanks for kindly reporting, please try the following instructions: $ git clone --depth=1 --branch=22.x https://github.com/devcoin/core
$ cd core/
$ ./contrib/install_db4.sh `pwd`
$ export BDB_PREFIX="`pwd`/db4"
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure BDB_LIBS="-L${BDB_PREFIX}/lib -ldb_cxx-4.8" BDB_CFLAGS="-I${BDB_PREFIX}/include" --without-miniupnpc --disable-tests
$ make -j4
$ strip src/devcoind; strip src/devcoin-cli; strip src/qt/devcoin-qt
NOTE: Make sure to install the dev package for libcurl (in Ubuntu you have lib4-openssl-dev, lib4-gnutls-dev or lib4-nss-dev). - develCuy I looked at that git site, used its code button to show me the URL to clone, did the git clone https://github.com/devcoin/core.git . in a new clean devcoin-git directory, and compile it using make -f makefile.unix The resulting devcoind seems much the same as the previous one, including complaining about an alert key: { "version" : 80900, "protocolversion" : 70001, "walletversion" : 10500, "balance" : 421051769.26151586, "blocks" : 503796, "timeoffset" : 0, "connections" : 1, "proxy" : "", "difficulty" : 27679048.67608187, "testnet" : false, "keypoololdest" : 1345747372, "keypoolsize" : 101, "paytxfee" : 0.00000000, "errors" : "URGENT: Alert key compromised, upgrade required", "round" : 125 } -MarkM- |

Repost from: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=317658.msg59127190#msg59127190UPDATE on new IXC website Dear IXC community, So far 20k IXC were donated to the Devcoin Foundation! I can't be more thankful for your generosity! My plan was as follows: - Get a copy of IXC website
- Setup a new server for IXC website
- Upload website files to new server
- Point domain name to new server
The first and the last bullet points don't depend on me, since I don't have any copies of IXC website and I don't control any IXC domain name. I already had a chat with Vlad, who basically told that I'm on my own. So, this is the plan now: - Resurrect an old copy of IXC website
- Setup a new server for IXC website
- Upload website files to the server
- Point ixc.devcoin.org to new server
Any objections? -- develCuy Admiral at the Devcoin Foundation Greetings from the Devcoin Foundation, We are offering help to resurrect the IXC website, we already have decent hosting for devcoin.org and it might be no brainier to help you guys with a similar solution. All we need is some funding to help with the required work to bring the website back online and monthly hosting fees. Please contribute your IXC to the following address: xcH7RnRZ7AS4yByUYQ6ssCdPhdKgFtisiD Bests! - develCuy Our website is down due to lack of funding. Vlad pumped 1 million ixc into ixc decelopment and was robbed of another 550,000 ixc. He’s done paying while ixc wales watch. Plus he’s broke, lost it all on cryptsy.
We have a coder - the lead dev from Devcoin, offering to help but they’re struggling with money too. If you guys want him to pay for and fix up the site Then pitch in. I’ll let him post his IXC address. Thanks to all.

BTW, vlad managed to grab Ixcoin.io which is what all the VCs use and it wasn’t cheap so we can use that and Ixcoin.net and .info and whatever else he’s got. I know the dot com was like $100k when he tried to buy it so he couldn’t but .io seems to be as good these days.
Thanks again.

No objections from anyone I would say develCuy.It is unfortunate Vlad won't cooperate with you and then try to grift money using such nasty tactics but everyone here knows he can't blame coinholders because they all bought their coins for fractions of a cent each and some for $6 dollars each when this coin was pumped so now are broke thanks to Vlads false promises.There was no work done on this coin for years and any so called whales don't have any money because they are broke yet Vlad tries to scapegoat them everyday.Ignore the grifters and do what you feel is best because everyone is tired of Vlad and his trolling bully friends.Vlad is insulting those idiots with his threats too because they have been deceived by his lies and false promises also. @develcuy No objection here anyway, I would say do whatever it takes to get us back up and running.
Thanks

For those looking to get CKeyID, you might be going the wrong path (like I did). I needed to convert an address in String format into a hash that can make into a custom transaction, which is something that Devcoin does in order to transfer a certain amount of newly minted coins to a list of addresses (beneficiaries). Little context, currently I'm updating Devcoin from old Bitcoin 0.8.x up to Bitcoin Core 22.x, so many things have changed! Also, I was missing the fact that Bitcoin transactions need pubkey hashes, not the actual pubkeys. An address derives from a pubkey hash, which then derives from a pub key. Btw, there is no way back from hashes to pub keys, since that would break the actual purpose of hashes (they are irreversible). Hopefully, address are base58 formatted, it means that they are reversible to their hash. Last but not least, modern Bitcoin has great functions that handle the different types of addresses and their hashes, so we do the following: CMutableTransaction myTx;
myTx.vin.resize(1);
myTx.vin[0].prevout.SetNull();
const string addressString = "my_address";
CAmount amount = 10;
string error_str;
CTxDestination destination = DecodeDestination(addressString, error_str);
// You don't need much more checks than the following
if (!IsValidDestination(destination)) {
return error(error_str);
}
CScript pubKeyHash = GetScriptForDestination(destination);
myTx.vout[0] = CTxOut(amount, pubKeyHash);
An implementation of the above: https://github.com/devcoin/core/blob/4ec355c0e42108afcfc8d2467fdeed0119a4123b/src/miner.cpp#L163- develCuy |

The latest wallet works fine so why do we need to copy what bitcoin is doing anyway? That devcoin logo looks a bit complicated for normies to remember if you are using it for marketing the coin. Complicated designs never work,genius in simplicity.
Thanks for your feedback! We need new functionality provided by latest Bitcoin code base in order to bring Devcoin into nowadays ecosystem. - develCuy |
