ffs I'm going to be honest. Stop hardforking.
Hardforks are a sign of progression. Doing it improperly is a sign of inexperience -_- we still have some things to learn. But at least we're not afraid to admit it  No that's BS Every time this coin look like it has progression it gets hard forked, you are not going to be able to take it to the next level fixing things that are not broken. Do you realize how annoying it is to update to the new client only for it to be re updated days later then log in and see that your master nodes are not on the correct fork . You guys know damn well I support this coin but I also am going to give you honesty. AS I said it was something that was not seen during testing, and it was unexpected during release. We are taking responsibility for the issue. What about the money the team has put toward rentals. Or the hours dedicated to fix the network? Or updating the services that we have. Believe me when I say none of us are happy about it either. Your windows clients do you have the .zip for them they are as tar on the download links on forum ann page. Also, I may be on the right chain I will look more at it tonight when I have time. I was one of the first to update pre release so I doubt it. You should be able to download the .tar.gz and extract it the same as a .zip, Once you download the new client it should automatically connect to the correct chain. as it is now the longest and most valid. My mistake I have a PM from you guys a few days ago about the new update and links provided, sorry for being rude regarding everything. (got out of wrong side of bed trolface) It's a very intense time for Crown, glad to have people here to be honest and point out issues. |

If not, please work out an estimation of your losses.. Thanks |

I totally see where you're coming from. Traditional views are that you should always allow your users to be able to access an exchange if you fork.
Give us a couple of hours to come back to you on this. It would be a lot easier to just go with the longer chain.
I've tried several times now to get on the "short" chain but I already end up going back to the long one.... which is where the bulk of the clients are and where all the hashrate is.... What is the problem your having updating exactly? eh? thought it was pretty plain. Everytime I sync, I go to the long chain.... even if I put in nodes from chainz explorer... I've only just caught up with what's going on, i'm with you now and have the same issue. |

Did you notify syspool that a fork was about to happen? I got no notice of this. Is syspool even mining crowns asfaik its not even online
Can you please help us with that? It would be greatly appreciated. Seems they are not on Twitter. Based on your tweet you are saying that syspool has not updated its daemon and they are causing your fork? But have you even been to syspool recently? It's not even online because sys is merge mined with btc and the pool is just used for our internal testing mostly when we have new features. Sigwo is the guy who manages it and I think he wanted to do major updated (pertaining to Segwit) and took it down for now, I'll have to catch up with him. Yes your right, it's not syscoin. I can't even find the pool anymore, probably because of the reasons you mention. |

Used node list and full resync bring me back to the long chain.
Did you resync the old chain or download the new chain and then resync? I copied Inferno node list, deleted everything under crown folder and downloaded from zero I just checked my local wallets and I seem to have the same problem. The old chain must still be dominant |

It's seems syspool dropped crw.. not sure why? They said nothing.. |

okay i will accept your view
"never support an un-intented harfork"
edit: sorry, i am still on the wrong chain. reindex did not help. will come back to this in some hours..
You need a fresh copy of the blockchain. |
|
|
|
IF you are mining on the old client now, I advise that you upgrade ! blocks from pre 0.12 are no longer being accepted with throne enforcement coming online so quickly.
The network is looking super stable regardless |

I've been unable to start a throne on my local machine and would appreciate any guidance in doing so. I'd love to set this up on a vps, but my time is extremely limited with work and a newborn.
After creating a throne in the thrones tab and entering my vp4 address:9340(as this was the port indicated in eightspace's video) and sending 10,000 crw to the address generated, I logged into my router and port forwarded to 9340 for my local machine. I then generated the config file editing port= with 9340 and replacing the text within crowncoin.conf. When I attempt to start the throne I get error: could not allocate vin for collateral/address. Any ideas?
you need to wait 15 rounds before you can use the collateral, also go into the debug window ant type "throne outputs" this will show valid transactions for use with a throne, also since your running behind a firewall, you need to add your external ip to the config file with externalip=yourexternalipaddress:port Didn't work. I have both ipv4 and ipv6 addresses. my external ip shows as ipv6. would this need to be added to the config file in place of the ipv4 address? if so, would it need to be separated by periods instead of colons with the colon at the end indicating the port number? The network only accepts ipv4 addresses as far as I'm aware. |

Great new looking website guys! Looking forward to see the new wallet up and running. Just to let you know. Last week I have met guys from trezor - Stick and I´m going to meet him again on Monday to finalize some business deal. But what is more importnant with their latest wallet release they have added support for Dash and Zcash. https://blog.trezor.io/multi-currency-support-bitcoin-dash-and-zcash-in-trezor-wallet-7377d812112a#.dokql189zWhat is great for eventual Crown support in trezor and their webwallet! is that what we need only is working insight fork https://insight.bitpay.com/ which is used at the trezor web wallet backend to process transactions. I´m able to personally contribute towards this because Crown as a application platform and upcoming Trezor V2 could play very well together. https://blog.trezor.io/trezor-security-beyond-bitcoin-c99f27b18b6b#.y8yqjno1x . Just for example simple notary - time stamping service using Trezor and crown blockchain would be cool service. Also today I´ve been reached by guy from slushpool who is currently running the pool for Slush and was helping him with some bitcoin stuff. It may be surprising with my reputation here, but it is true:-) So if there will be any need to push Crown into Trezor or Sluspool just let me know. With 5PH/s is almost sure crown will be added but if there will be any need of any support just let me know. I´m still waiting for the logos and code to finalize the tasks I have mentioned before - wallet-generator, bitsquare . Also the logos should be placed on the new website on some dedicated page to be able to easily reach them and also to let them to be more easily indexed on google end so. I want to type Crown in the browser and see crown logo on the first page on google image search and everyone else searching crown should find crown logo! I wanted to mention something reagarding your Throne network. If I need to setup a Throne now I need to rent out a VPS or setup a Raspberry PI node - I´m going to setup one soon. Have one laying around with any usage so why not to use it for this use case. Setup a VPS or PI be honest is not task for every common joe even with detailed step by step tutorial. People do not like to read tutorials they like to click and go I think someone of you definitely noticed http://bcoin.io/browser.html which is javascript bitcoin full node in your browser. Imagine people running nodes in their browsers using their actual resources pcs, laptops and getting rewards for this. Just for example I´m personally renting my storage to Storj decentralized storage and getting paid for it storj tokens released on counterparty. This is another great way of passive income. What do you think about the idea of running a Throne in the browser? And last thing I wanted to mention is ssl certificate which should be added on your website. It will give the website more credibility and at least from my point of view website with green bar looks more serious on the first impression. Also it is better for search engine rankings. Cheapest Comodo certificate costs 9 USD per year - https://www.namecheap.com/security/ssl-certificates.aspx which is not a big deal. And even Theymos invested for ssl for btctalk:-)) Bigmo thanks for your comments! 1. Trezor and slushpool - yes push them if you have the opportunity to help this 2. Notary service - this feature is a very important one, I would like to see it running on Crown. Who will make it happen? 3. Logo - good idea, pls take it from here http://crown.tech/history scroll to the bottom, anything else you need? 4. Thrones on a browser - we will discuss in the team, for me it is a good idea! 5. SSL Certificate, this should not be a problem, the question is if this has real added value. Let me look into it. Absolutely get an ssl certificate, it looks and feels safer. I assumed we already had one TBH   |

Id really hate to take the conversation away from the forum but to really move these things along (quick) we need to talk on slack. I will discuss with the team and get you added over the next few days |

Are there any crown pools currently working?

All due respect to the development team. The website looks great and I am looking forward to the wallet and core updates. That being said... the white papers while well intentioned are completely overwrought.
The preamble and pseudo-philosophy does not add anything. The lack of clear objectives and lack of technical specifications for what is being proposed is concerning. Moreover, having to sift through all the superfluous text to understand what exactly is being proposed is a detriment. I should be able to look at the title of the white paper or the first sentence and understand what is being proposed, instead I have read them all and feel like almost nothing has been clarified, only confused.
The problems crown has proposed to solve, block size and POS/POW alternative are what might bring value to this project. I understand setting the foundations of the project, but this can be accomplished without the quotes and in plain language that is easily digestible. Too much esoteric nonsense.
Anyways. Hopefully more information about these solutions will be available sooner rather than later.
I appreciate the effort of the Crown Team.
With the criticisms you've made we have decided to move away from whitepaper branding, instead they'll be called 'Crown Papers' from now on. The Crown Papers are more of a compass rather than a specific destination. We know which way we need to go but are unsure about the obstacles we may need to jump over to reach our destination. As we release new features to the network, also will follow technical spec to explain the addition. So maybe slapping white paper in my updates wasn't the best plan. As a team we have lots to think about right now, like release of wallets, contacting everyone to update, testing... Once all this is out of the way, we can start to really nail down the 'whitepaper issue'. |
