my own local stratum is connected to a wallet of ~ 705 blocks (right now); i'd sent to c-cex (about 4 days ago) and received with no issues whatsoever.
c-cex's wallet info states it is on the same chain (as it is currently showing 705), yet my sends of approx 10 hours ago are not showing up.

whys the wallet listed as being 'in maintenance'?
nothing wrong with the chain c-cex, lets go bud...
302  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][MOON] Mooncoin: You know where it's headed! KGW exploit FIXED 4/3/2014 on: December 11, 2016, 05:39:49 AM
To bad Genesis Mining stopped supporting MOON in early 2014  Cry

I'd almost view this as a positive thing.
Cloud mining is questionable, even just as a concept on paper.
Then take into account running costs and erm.. greed, sorry.. 'business profitability'.

A spare linux box, say 30-45 minutes to install base cli operating system, 15-20 minutes to install a stratum/db backend, few hours to sync mooncoin from scratch (or literally copy the windows blockfiles over, works fine).
Then 0.01btc at nicehash, or substantially less from miningrigrentals, portforward the external stratum traffic on your firewall/modem to your linux box's NIC; scratch your back for a minute, then hash away.

Other than splitting the payments amongst hundreds of customers, there is literally no difference between doing it yourself or cloud mining (obviously the method detailed above means that you retain 100% of each block solved).

moon coin looks great, maybe i will try  buy this coin

Try to buy this coin ? You can 100% buy this coin though I don't know where the Development is heading as it has stagnated for quite a while + it is good to hold a little bit of everything from Legacy Coins Smiley

Perhaps. You might be surprised shortly. Who knows?

Finally came unstuck.. all good gents
So did you get back your bitcoin?

It seems they are going with maintainance and those problems you had before may be one of the problem they are trying to fix now

Got this  https://www.satoshidice.com/?stage=2

We're doing database operations, please come back in an hour!

yep, got it all. cheers.
i feel that it is a trap of sorts, after a big win (understandably) some people would get annoyed and then eventually continue to throw - and then lose it all, simply due to the fact they weren't able to withdraw.

i've personally had enough of provably fair sites (satoshidice, to its credit, has been reasonable); as the entire concept is gamed.
the hash that you are presented, how do you know it hasnt been pre-calculated? very little cpu work to do so.
and for every hash that you see.

i've been toying with an entirely transparent concept for a dice site; where the users can see the guts and all of the site code.. as it runs. no ifs, no buts, no coconuts. using a randomization source that can be independently queried to ensure that that was the given seed/number at this time etc.

not asking for funding, but would this interest people?

@barrysty1e

Looks nice, thank you very much!  Smiley

Will there also be a pre-compiled Linux (32bit) version available?

Ps. Don't forget to open port 19390 at your router/firewall for more
connections and to help the Supercoin network!

i wasn't planning on it, but i do have a debian box sitting idle; so yes can do.
305  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why do Atheists hate Religion ? on: December 09, 2016, 10:35:44 AM
i think the best argument, honestly, is the one where a fundy (as we call them here) calls out to an 'athiest' (or put slightly better, someone who just goes about their life without feeling the need to organise and criticize others) and asks them what their issue with religion is.

there isn't actually any issue, however the question inevitably turns to, 'how cant you believe in my magical pixie fairy with a beard', 'explain the wonders of the world without a greater being'. this is the obnoxious part.

i honestly think religion, or the concept, was created to prevent certain types of personality/people from going nuts. honest opinion, not trolling here.
easy to grasp the concept, if you look at where we all are; how separate yet together we can all be, wars, millions of miles/distance separating us - and we're just chilling.

some people need to think there is 'more'. up to them.

When will The old SuperCoin qt stop staking new coins?
Good Job and thank you for all your effort.

cheers.. it will keep going as long as there are nodes about; i run one permanently on amazon, so should be for a while yet. ideally though, i'd like to transition majority of the funds between chains and then let supercoinplus run on its new lighter chain (initial goal with my involvement), but there is no end date in sight.

Looks good :-)

cheers. will look much nicer once i get CryptoJohn's new graphics in there.
additionally, when i get some time i want to sort out the unimplemented multisig scenarios too, mentioned earlier in the thread.

to all:
just letting the base node accumulate some more blocks before i add a few base checkpoints, then i will release the code, binaries etc to all.

Completed Win32-qt client


Crosschain address conversion utility


Crosschain detection backend/homebuilt block explorer


The funds seen in the first picture, form the 'pool' of funds that the Crosssend occurs from.
Sending 1000 SUPER from the old wallet to the new chain is as simple as converting the destination address (of SuperCoinPlus), to a SuperCoin compatible format using the tool, then creating a special send from SuperCoin itself.

Then once committed to a block, your funds will show up in SuperCoinPlus.

Im going to.. go do something else for a while, been on here for a bit too long,

Hi all,

I'll be releasing SuperCoin+ this Saturday (or possibly later tonight).

Everything is ready to roll.
There are a few things I haven't added yet (new improved graphics from CryptoJohn); but the 90 second PoS, crosschain sends and gui update is complete.

I lost my original 'Crosschain' RPC bolton with my disk drive crash; however, i've nearly finished a standalone win32 app which will assist in sending funds from SuperCoin to a SuperCoin+ address.

i think better to be wait more hours and be patience maybe they can solve this issue..
Since that site is old dice game since 2012. If you are new it is better to try other well know dice site here. than choosing this one..
They are low support according to other reviews..

ye, its a bit disappointing in an electronic world to wait this long for support.
i've found their luck to be average to good.. all provably fair sites are rubbish to be honest
cheers anyway

I don't know how relevant it sounds but just posting here incase some finds it helpful connecting the dots.
SatoshiDice starts a new signature campaign with higher paid rates here : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1666258.msg16730810#msg16730810
After two weeks of running,the campaign unexpectedly decides to shut down with campaign manager's last update :
Hi guys. I just want to let you know that campaign is in pause phase. Please, feel free to join in another campaign. Thank you.
Take it as you want it.I think both the instances are co-related somehow but I maybe wrong.

i've used the site between november 22nd and now with no issues, might just be a small breakfix required
312  Economy / Gambling / Re: Satoshidice.com having issues? on: December 03, 2016, 05:52:18 AM
I just found and search some thread in this section about satoshidice hot wallet was empty according to this link https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1365781.msg14299085
And read it maybe it can help you to know the issue to your concern..

I can't find the contact email but you can try go to this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=77870.0 which is old from satoshidice..

Heh.. the satoshidice hot wallet is nearly always empty, the key is just waiting until someone else puts money down ('our service technicians have been notified' nearly every time, but couple hours later its all good).

This seems to be entirely different issue, like the core engine is dead; I can leave the site with 'processing your bet' for hours.
Emailled them about 6 hours ago to no avail.

Hi all,
Wondering if anyone else is experiencing issues with SatoshiDice; have laid down 0.25BTC, but unable to bet or withdraw.
Keeps sitting there with 'processing your bet' and upon withdrawal, sits there doing.. not much.
Usually site works fine?

Right. I was asking for the addresses, they're not in the OP and I thought someone might know them already so I didn't have to use the source, Luke. If no one posts them I'll try to dig them up tonight or tomorrow.

zcoin block explorer.
block 1 (https://zcoin.rocks/block/c0c53331e3d96dbe4a20976196c0a214124bef9a7829df574f00f4e5a1b7ae52).

315  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Zcoin (XZC) - Implementing Zerocoin technology for financial privacy on: December 02, 2016, 08:52:37 PM
Is the 20% dev tax activated now? Are the addresses where those funds go public (without looking into the source code)? Devs hodling or dumping with miners?

has been from the start.
these addresses are available to view in any zcoin block explorer.

zcoin is just a clone of moneta, which was a clone of zerovert.
i'm guessing the original dev of zerovert (who does deserve props for actually writing the first coin to utilize libzerocoin) wasn't happy with the profit so he triple dipped.

roger ver is across 95% of this too; search his name and moneta/zerovert on google.

i've got to say guys, all of this can be discovered by exercising your personal right to think for yourself.
316  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Dash - Is this code as damning as it looks or nothing out of the ordinary? on: December 02, 2016, 09:17:05 AM
guys.
settle the fuck down.
this is a fix for KGW.

the nBits function (provided by an include to 'boost/algorithm') doesn't deal with negatives.
target difficulty as we all know, is not meant to drop below zero (it will get very close however).

KGW lets this happen (as an adjustment mechanism), the problem being that the coin daemon's ContextualCheckBlockHeader function will spit it, when it produces an incorrect nBits figure when it tries to validate the block.

Feel free to pop this into the function (in lieu of standard code/or the absolute patch); run it and see what happens:
Code:
// Check proof of work
if ((!Params().SkipProofOfWorkCheck()) &&
   (block.nBits != GetNextWorkRequired(pindexPrev, &block))){
LogPrintf("ContextualCheckBlockHeader,nHeight=%d,block.nBits=%d,GetNextWorkRequired=%d\n",nHeight,block.nBits,GetNextWorkRequired(pindexPrev, &block));
return state.DoS(100, error("%s : incorrect proof of work", __func__),
                REJECT_INVALID, "bad-diffbits"); */
}

when the nBits conversion is called again, the value it returns will be incredibly close (shown as an integer, it will be off by 4 or 5) because it has wrapped past zero, which an unsigned variable is not meant to do (a signed variable can, even binary which is why there is a 'sign' bit denoting whether the value is positive or negative). the above snippet will show you that the figure differs from what is expected.

i ran into a similar issue whilst working with an upgraded altcoin codebase recently, and have been tearing my f**ken hair out as to why the existing mainnet chain doesn't match the difficulty algorithms. i actually owe a thanks to whoever came up with the commit (https://github.com/dashpay/dash/commit/efca207c134516c5ddf7ce7b681ed983909a826f) as i came pretty close to adding individual block exceptions for the contextual checker (ew).

* point 1 : official Dash github is found here --> https://github.com/dashpay/dash
I will let that sink in for awhile, for the more slower trolls on this thread

* point 2 : the code that is referred to in this thread is for Testnet


not to be a pain; i can't find that commit.
the code isn't for testnet; testnet is mentioned as a condition in the if clause, the code is for the 'if else' condition.

this is whats currently in the official repository at the moment:


which actually integrates the difficulty portion of https://github.com/vertoe/darkcoin_subsidy/blob/master/darkcoin_subsidy.cpp in a much neater manner.
all smoke no fire i'm afraid.

again, cheers to whoever wrote that KGW absolute value fix  Cool hero

only 10btc to 200k .. whales were in this coin..and I think they are accumulating.. so we will see a huge rise in the future.. especially with polo..and why not? ..
which news do you say about this fact? I do not see where the whales are?


you will see..soon or later.. Wink

LOL good one
where are these whales when you need a spare fifty bucks haha

zerovert? moneta? zcoin?
all the same coin, different pow algorithm

all have libzerocoin implementations as they are all clones (all 0.8.6 series too).

The repo is now here:

https://github.com/ocminer/node-multi-hashing-xzc

@drays: please send me that PM again, I get too many pm's per day, I probably skipped it somehow, sorry !

Could anyone describe a little more narrowly how to run it?  Embarrassed

few hints:
a) install nomp/unomp as normal
b) using npm, install the module ocminer has provided (directly from github)
c) tailor the definitions file to suit the lyra2rev2 algorithm (https://github.com/CoinHashMe/node-stratum-pool-lyra2re/blob/lyra2re/lib/algoProperties.js contains big hints)
d) set pool up as you normally would, pool_config file and a coins file; bit of guesswork here

in action (private pool, please dont connect yr miners as you wont receive payouts):

I'll release it asap, i've already pulled a clean branch of the node-stratum and i'm just making sure it works

Will the issues with hashrate presentation be fixed in that release? I mean the discrepancies between "pool hash" and "net hash", and also the hasharet of the workers shown in unknown units (like hexahash or something, instead of hash/kilohash).. Could/would they be fixed, or we expect the community to chip in some code to fix it after initial release? Wink

And one more (purely personal and off-topic) question: OC, did you notice a PM I sent you few weks ago regarding some of my coins remaining on your pools...? Smiley

The repo is now here:

https://github.com/ocminer/node-multi-hashing-xzc

@drays: please send me that PM again, I get too many pm's per day, I probably skipped it somehow, sorry !

neat, just got it going now.. what a legend that ocminer guy is
