Unstable how? I'm not aware of any stability issues.

Thanks. Good to hear.
Maybe another exchange will step up before Cryptsy upgrades and pulls their client out of maintenance. There are a lot of exchanges out there.

Here is the download link for the 1.2.0.2 binary:

Enjoy and good luck!

Github == Linux
Mega == Windows

;-)

But I'll try to be more specific in the future about this. I am building the Windows binary as we speak. Will post a link once it's done.

That's not 1.2.0.2!
I will release the Windows binary shortly.

Version 1.2.0.2 has been released on Github.

Hi guys, I know I'm past the 24 hours I mentioned before. I'm sorry this is taking a bit longer. I am not sure enough yet about my current test results so need to go over some things again.
Don't worry I'll be here. Apologies for the delay.

No you should be OK mining solo.

I am still here. I expect to release the new client within the next 24 hours.

OK I found a bug that was making the client advertise wrong difficulty values in certain situations. I fixed this and will publish the code later.

I'm afraid the bug has resulted in some invalid blocks and forks. Fixing this would mean quite some invalid blocks being disposed of. I can imagine not everybody being ecstatic about this, but the coins wouldn't be worth a dime anyway, since they are based on buggy difficulty calculations and besides they were generated too quickly.

For your info:
The last valid block on ispace.co.uk is 482296
The last valid block on bitnodes.net is the block with height 482403. (bitnodes.net has the same block 482296 as the one mentioned at iSpace)

This block 482403 has hash 000000000927d9a7d431da80a0876689164ac030d989701f8730f7f4cb6cb258

This block will mark the start for the fixed code. At this moment nobody is succesfully mining blocks anyway, unfortunatly.

This update will include an adjustment to the difficulty calculation as well to make sure the difficulty will adjust a bit better when blocks are generated fast enough.

I am working on it, apologies for the inconvenience!

Enjoy it while it lasts ;-)

These blocks should have been mined ages ago. Jump in while you can or miss the boat ;-) The diffucilty will return to normal levels soon enough.

New Windows binary: https://mega.nz/#!lhc0gBrb!Ge7wpCQwVSDAMmEl20RWh1y9OmPxJVguaHzfJXDB1jY

Yes, because I haven't build new Win binaries yet.

The hotfix has been published.

Yes, retargeting every block helps because it prevents the generation of blocks baing locked up in a sudden drop of difficulty. The fact that we are still generating blocks at this very moment although iSpace pulled a large amount of hashing power should speak for itself. As a note: Difficulty is very low at this moment. This will not stay this way. It is a result of the slow generation of blocks over the past period (before-fork). I see it as an incentive to get involved (again) in Tigercoin.

I have found out why the clients crash every now and then, and wrote a hotfix to resolve this issue. I am testing it now and expect to release it in a few hours on Github.

Thats not accurate. iSpace is most definitely involved in mining Tigercoin blocks at the moment.

Yes it is the right one, but the block explorer site seems to have an issue at the moment, so is not showing new blocks since their issue started.

Yes. And their node is in the OP addnodes list.

Strictly speaking they are offline again. It looks like they have been online in the meantime. Maybe their wallet VPS can't handle the load of the more frequent blocks or something? For now, blocks can be generated quite fast sometimes. That will settle down soon enough. If they have other daemon issues I'm sure they know where to find me.
