Is there something wrong with geth? I had switched to parity but now when I start geth or the wallet no blocks load and it will not sync. I am using the latest wallet (6) and geth (18).
Thanks.
yes there is i know no one with a working wallet. and i try for a friend to get his ether predao fork out of that wallet. i start thinking his coins are burned. he is another colateral damage of the big daobailoutfork . Why is this a constant problem? Since I started with ETH months ago geth synchronization has been a mess. This is such a fundamental function for any coin. If this doesn;t work how can anyone have any confidence in the coin or the development team that is supporting it? Starting a wallet and having it synch should be automatic and without all the aggravation we get from geth and ETH. I know I am venting but is anyone ever going to fix this? Well, what version of the wallet are you running, and on what hardware? The last solid month or more the network has been sustaining constant dos attacks, making syncing super slow for some. 0.8.6 contains the hardfork to fix most of those issues, with another coming to further complete the fix. i updated to 0.8.6 and it wont sync. and i know no one with a working wallet no one . Soz b. But you can't know many people!  I've had no issues syncing or making transactions from my wallet since 0.8.6. And I know there are many others, even in this thread who are able to as well. Perhaps try another wallet software, such as myetherwallet? so you sugest myetherwallet? whats wrong with mist 0.8.6? i updates to mist 0.8.6 from a very old version of mist it holds still predaofork ether and i would think there are many out there with the same problem not everyone checks the wallet every day right now it syncs very slow the blocks found come faster in then my wallet syncs so i get more and more behind. i was talking of people i know with mist wallet and they do all have the same problem. the wallet wont sync. glad to hear that you and others dont have the problem. but we do have this problem and if the eth comunity is a friendly one the comunity might want to have our problems with the wallet solved. or is it that you dont care if the wallet has problems ? i see in this thread not only me with a problem i see many posts. so to every one who has an idea how to solve this let me know .

mine works, even my rigs powered with conventional disks.
try nuking your chaindata and resync with --fast.
some of the block with malicious calculations refer back to previous blocks to crunch more data. limiting the bulk of old blocks to headers only curbs the amount of erroneous calculations needed to process (and sync) a block.
how to resync with --fast ? would you be so kind and give a step by step list ? |

Ethereum is as solid as a rock. It will not be swayed with some bitcoin pumps.
Yes, but in contrast to bitcoin ETHF pumps don't work. Every attempt is quickly and impatiently sold out. why can eth keep a stable price during all that troubled water ? are there suport walls ? and if yes how does that work ? |

Calm down guys, the attack on Ethereum was all about making profits through crimes. Get a dump going on through a huge theft or network attack, buy up at bottom of a panic dump of ETH and then sell it off when the price rebounds. Trying to connect it up too stuff happening outside of crypto currencies is silly  but there was no panic dump. the price didnt fluctuate in a range one would expect with such a long time attack. eth stood above 10 euro even if you cant even transfer it smooth. same in etc. and if i am informed right the attacks do cost gas so they burn there own money doing them. so i cant see what huge shorting could be done. and no i am not just pro etc i watch eth too couse this attacks look like a highlevel chess game. its interesting what the next move might be. i think the motivation is not money its more ideological. the attackers must be very smart. and know blockchain technologie very well. and especialy ethereum blockchain. |

Thank you for the heads up roselee. I have been mining on a Chinese Pool (91) and have no complaints. They are very good, with no attacks and they pay on time too. etcwin will be good for classic. im in!

Will they use the ETH code to hard fork or create their own code to deal with the current DDoS attack?
According to ETC dev splix, they use the same standard (EIP-150), but are working on their own implementation over ETC codebase. Because ETC geth code is already fork-aware, implementation of new fork logic could be done in a much cleaner way. EF codebase is structured differently, it is not really fork-aware, so their implementation involves a bit of hacks. Because ETC hard fork is delayed compared to ETH, it will be possible to see the effects of EIP-150 hard fork on ETH first and correct ETC HF implementation if there are some problems. So, in a way, ETH serves as a test net for ETC. very well said. |

ETH forked again. What is going on with ETC?
as far as i know a fork is planed in 9 days(block 2500000) to fix the dos attacks Issues should be addressed even if its required a hard fork as there is no alterative...hope there will be an official word soon. for sure there will be a official word soon. as i understand it they are still sorting out details and test it. i heared they said dont rush it have it tested and let eth fork first. i like that approach. Will they use the ETH code to hard fork or create their own code to deal with the current DDoS attack? i am no expert but it seems to me yes they use the same way eth does. |

If ethereum classic decides to fork, it won't survive very long. It is already wobbling, barely standing as it is.
It depends on the type of the hard fork. If it is for the good of the whole network, it will certainly survive. Regardless-I think it's safer to stick with ethereum at this point whether you are investor or trader. and i bet on ethereum classic . i think that will make a better profit. Why do you think so?As up to me I judge based on fundamentals although clasic is original ethereum chain it is a new in terms of who works on it.But that's only short time bet. etc wasnt under attack till last week but eth is under attack for weeks now. we just can guess why. but eth is since summer busy fixing bugs and stop attacks and i dont think that will stop in the near future. maybe the fork now will give eth a break . dont get me wrong i wish eth the best. didnt agree with what they did to solve the dao desaster but its past. i think etc wasnt the aim of the attack it was just in the way. as soon as the fork is done the attacker will focus on eth again . etc can and will grow. eth will survive this too but i guess etc will make faster and better profit for investors. at the moment . how it will be in a couple of years . who knows. and the attacks are good on the long run . lets be honest ethereum was coded very fast and now that attacker finds all the bugs and they have to fix them better now then later . |

What do you think of this image http://prnt.sc/crq1fw Is the ETH and ETC chart similiar to each other? What is your thoughts? Can ETC see 0.0063 and break a new ATH again? I have around $X.XXX to invest again, in ETC. Should I do it now, or wait till price drops below 0.00185..or what? will ETC also do another fork? What would you do? Anyone who want to share som thoughts on these charts? hi goodsun first i would not ask what i shall do in a forum . but its smart to get opinions . i hold. and invest left over money in altcoins. do i give eth and etc a chance ? yes sure i do . out of ideology i invest more in etc. me personaly didnt like what eth did. etc has done the first steps and is still standing thats a very good sign. a strong comunity is forming . most of it is in slack channel. information is posted weekly on reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/EthereumClassic/newand here is another link https://github.com/ethereumproject/ECIPsand i am sorry for eth they are under heavy attack right now. |

I keep saying it... But until the formal announcement of the HF date for the diff bomb freeze or defuse ETC is going to go sideways or down. It is time to set a date and broadcast it. Until then it isn't going to look pretty.
from what i heard the date is middle of january to delay the diff bomb for a year to give it time to decide on what direction it goes. pos or pow or poc consensus and and and lol nice you are here again long |
