HardcoreMiners.com - Block 8160: http://explorer.bonuscoin.net/block/00000000000043c1ed64ca67ee0ff65144907f94b9bac850da9506b0c49c1ce8

Congrats to whoever hit them!

Thank you.  Remember everyone, please update your wallet ASAP!

Thanks, we're trying to be a great coin.  There is a lot to it, hopefully being responsive when issues arise will speak to our goal!   Fixing KGW wasn't too difficult, so only thought on whether he's positively or negatively impacting the community is either way it'll be telling how serious the devs are about their coin if they fix it or leave it alone.

As to price, it's all subjective and I make no claims to be a crypto price person.  Maybe some of the other members will speak to their opinion on that topic. 

Thank you.  Shouldn't be a major update, but will fix a few outstanding issues from launch day and the KGW issue as well.

BonusCoin Wallet Update (Please Update ASAP)

Wallet Links are now updated on the front page of thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=524212.0

What's in update:
We've upgraded to version 0.9.8.1, it patches the time warp bugs found recently in KGW, and squashes all known bugs in the current client -- so please upgrade immediately. We were hoping to roll more into this release, but we wanted to get the time warp fixes in as quickly as possible. We've also added a checkpoint to the chain, so rest assured everything that's been mined is secure.

And unlike other clients, we chose to do a mixed fork (part soft, part hard) to allow our users, pools, and exchanges time to upgrade in a graceful manner. At block 12870 (7 days) a hard fork will occur. At 11430, the new clients will stop rejecting connections from old wallets. This should allow users a 5 day grace period to upgrade their wallets, a 2 day warning period, and then on day 7 the network will hard fork anyone that hasn't updated.

If you leave your wallet open for long periods of time, there is a possibility that an older client could connect before the soft fork occurs and when the hard fork happens that older clients will send bad blocks out. This won't cause any harm to the chain, only the solo miners who haven't bothered to update, but it may create a few spam blocks that will easily get rejected. If you want to avoid that possibility, simply reset your wallet after block 11430 and it'll reject any peers who are on old wallets.

Please Upgrade ASAP

Highly Recommended:
Reset your client after block 11430 is mined.  (we'll post in thread when that block hits) <-- This is not technically required, but recommended to avoid wasted communication with old clients after soft fork is over.

Before upgrade, please backup your wallet (just good practice)!

If you've got any questions just let us know.


Windows: You really just need to backup wallet, shutdown BonusCoin Wallet,  then replace your Bonuscoin qt exe file file with the new one and restart.  Should work.

Everyone on the forum should prob want to get on these anyway, but thought it might help motivate

You're quite welcome.  Congrats again on the First Solo SuperBonus!

FYI guys,

Just wanted to do a little outreach to the broader market.

It's not a lot, but hey, it's free and all you have to do is post a wallet.  (Probably more work in me paying than posting a wallet! lol)

Yeah, it's always some relation to difficulty I think..  So, buy, mine or both..  just depends on where things are and where you think it's going!

I'm glad to see everyone starting to push!  I think as a community we can grow this coin..

Also, please continue to email

support [at] cryptsy.com

and request they add us!

Lol..  be gentle..   But so long as you're a buyer.. I'm good..  I'm fine with Buy low sell high!  And a lot of the opportunity here is buying the lows..   

Spreading the word as far, as wide and as fast as we can!

Yes, out of 5 you guys found 3..  Which I must say is pretty damn impressive!

Sent 2000 BNS extra to finding address:

Congratulations on the 718,750 BNS SuperBonus block and being the first solo miner to hit one! 

I've added your name to the thread as the finder!

Yeah, been some great opportunities to pick it up low lately..  But I've noticed at the same time, sellers seem to be holding a pretty high spread too..

Did you solo mine the SuperBonus block?
