Info.plist was still poiting to darkcoin executables. You possibly need to change some packaging property to point to the right executable before building.
I fixed this, running OS X build now, will update soon. EDIT: OS X build updated

The backup did not synchronize with the network, created a new wallet and sent it the old to the new, when first starting the new wallet had not received anything.
All I sent for the new wallet returned to the former when used the backup again. (did not send my old wallet spread)
I'm sure I've lost everything!
Not of to recover. My old funds did not work with the new version do not know why.
Actually, I'm tired of trying.
I'm not sure what exactly you did, is there some problem with SpreadCoin client? Do you still have your old wallet? If you will describe in details what exactly was the problem and what you did then probably I will be able to help you.

1 - my wallet did not work with the new version

2 - cleaned everything in% appdata% (including wallet date), ready everything was working standard (minig, etc).

3 - I copied the new address generated for Notepad

4 - wiped everything again and put back up the old wallet

5 - all sent to the address of the new wallet (which was in Notepad)

6 - cleaned everything in% appdata% and pasted the backup in place the new wallet

7 - open the new portfolio waited sync and ready (had not received even a spread)

8 - the old wallet does not send my spreads

ps: I tried several times.  Sad


Changed my passphrase and I forgot to save the wallet date with the new passphrase. (ready LOST ALL)  Embarrassed


The old wallet is unable to send to the new wallet. What you need to do is recover the backup of your old wallet BEFORE spending all the coins and then replace it over the new wallet after it has synched.

If you are unable to do that, you can still find out all the privkeys in your wallet.dat and import them on the new wallet (hard work, but can be done, for 42K you'll have about 6000 privkeys to import)

I am unable to run the mac wallet directly (under OSX mavericks), but entering the .app folder and running spreadcoin-Qt from the command line works ok. There might be something broken in the packaging.
I don't know much about OS X, I have never used it. I'm just using the same build process from Darkcoin. Do you have the same issue with Darkcoin? Maybe something is wrong with file permissions, i.e. there is no executable permission, although in that case you would not be able to run it from command line either.

Darkcoin executables are always buggy (wrong fonts, etc) but they open correctly. I'll check file permissions (possibly its permission on some resource file, not the main executable).

AFAIK, it makes no difference to send the new block to the pool or send it directly to the network, since it doesn't matter who posts it, but ratter who is able to retrieve it.
It is important if both miner and pool knows the private key. Whoever will be first to broadcast the spending transaction to other miners will win.

Well, is that possible to add the spending transaction to the same block as the mining transaction? For example, the pool adds the following transactions to the block being mined:

Tx1 = Generated coins 6.66 -> Addr1
tx2 = Spend Tx1 -> Addr2

In that case, the same block generates the coins and spends them. (I am not sure if it is possible because of the confirmations the block needs before being spent, but you know better than me about those things)
3126  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] SpreadCoin on: September 11, 2014, 11:07:48 PM
Finally, here it is:
Windows wallet
Mac OS X wallet
Linux wallet

Hardfork is set to block 43000.
The general idea is that there is some additional information in each block that proofs that miner knows whole block and private key for spending coinbase transaction. That means that if you mine in a pool you can submit shares as usual and get reward for them but if you will actually find a valid block then you can send it directly to the network instead of the pool and get full reward for it. Pool may detect it and ban you but this is still may be advantageous for you. If your mining power gives you low probability of finding a block then if you will accidentally find a block it gives you more profit even if the pool will ban you for not sharing this block. If you have enough mining power to find blocks consistently then you can connect to a pool and submit shares for some time but steal the first found block, this way you can get both reward for your shares and actual block that you mined, this is like doubling your hashrate.
Given all this I don't expect that anyone will create a pool. But if someone will then I will modify whatever miner software will be used for it to implement the stealing described above, we may expect that most pool miners will then switch to this cheating version which will make this pool useless.

Also I made built-in GUI for the miner. Currently it is still the same CPU miner but in the future I want to make as interface to external miners. Other developers (and me) will be able to independently create CPU and GPU miners and fastest such miners will be distributed with the wallet and available from GUI.

I changed difficulty retarget to six hours. I don't want to set it to lower values because then it may become vulnerable to manipulation by setting improper block timestamps.

Existing GPU miner will become unusable after the fork point because of the modifications to the mining algorithm which are necessary to prevent pools.

AFAIK, it makes no difference to send the new block to the pool or send it directly to the network, since it doesn't matter who posts it, but ratter who is able to retrieve it. Since the miner must have the PK to mine, it can always spend the money from the pool, even the blocks he did not mine by himself.

And if I get that right, to be accepted the block must not only hash to a certain difficulty, but also the generated coins must be sent to the same address that signs the block? So i can't mine directly to more than one address like p2pool does?

And what about ability to mine with GPUs?

Right now, the coin is interesting for many who do not have powerful GPU, because the network hashing power is not dramatically increased by the big miners. Maybe this could be the advantage over other coins.

But this is not by the special design, but only because no miner software is adapted yet.
Am I right?

Any plans/ thoughts on this?

Regards,
Andy

Well, cpu only coins have the disadvantage of being targeted by botnets.

I was porting sgminer to work with this coin, but since the dev announced changes in the mining process i'll rather wait and see what will be done instead of loosing all the work when the fork comes.

So, i'm guessing that having a 1000 wallets in my machine will mine me more than having a single wallet? Or do you avoid that in some way?
This is still a PoW, you mine according to your hashrate. So each of your 1000 wallets will have 1/1000 of your total hashrate that you could get with a single wallet.

Ok, i'll wait and see, but it looks to me that you'll still be able have a pool, just that the pool would have to "block" in some way the "consistently steal" part of the mining.
3133  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] SpreadCoin on: September 02, 2014, 02:08:16 PM
Thanks for everyone who donated. I will bring spreadcoin.net back online shortly.

So here is description of the feature that I want to implement. Some may like it while some may not.
I want to make this coin for solo only mining without any pools (mining will be made in a such way that miners will be able to consistently steal money from the pool). With blocks generated every minute even with thousands of miners you will still be able to get block once in several days (if you have average hashing speed). There will be no concentration of mining power in large pools as in Bitcoin and there will be no multipools. We can than advertize it as being more decentralized than Bitcoin. Mining will be more like a lottery which may be more interesting or in contrary distract people form mining (however, if you mine for long time than you don't actualy need any pools).

What do you think about this idea?

I already have working implementation but need to polish it in several ways.

So, i'm guessing that having a 1000 wallets in my machine will mine me more than having a single wallet? Or do you avoid that in some way?

Peço licença para fazer uma crítica quanto à pergunta que relaciona a recente desvalorização do bitcoin com o evento do leilão de BTCs apreendidos (SilkRoad) pelo governo norte-americano. Enquanto no questionário essa ligação fora colocada de forma inquestionável, (na minha opinião, ressalto) não creio que haja qualquer relação entre um evento e outro (posso até estar enganado). De qualquer forma aproveitei a oportunidade para desenvolver sobre os dois temas. Espero ter sido esclarecedor (quanto ao meu ponto de vista).

Comentei a mesma coisa. No formulário é posto como "fato", mas não é. O BTC VALORIZOU depois da apreensão no silky road, e só foi desvalorizar após a quebra da mtgox. Mesmo que de forma especulatória não vejo como estabelecer relação entre os dois. Mesmo que houvesse relação aparente, nunca há como estabelecer o nível de certeza que o formulário deixa transparecer.
3136  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] SpreadCoin on: September 01, 2014, 11:42:20 AM
I'm now acting like a misbehaving dev, I already announced that there will be a relaunch and now I will probably change my opinion. Somebody may have stopped mining because of my announcement. Well, lets see how this donating will go.

I made an address for everyone who expressed intention to donate:
A-tM: Sfakp1H9msXAohGmnb2T7NWrtcBdwSxbid
girino: Sfj7CRRDetVRwztPMiKmC1bpjTaWKE7og3

BITDV: SivziBM1qtAPMGn2FmAfzkuSqmFfut9zcf
Frigga77: SUyJUjU9dtJnWFg6BeLonGQRaQfBSG979C

I hope that I didn't miss anyone, anyway there is an address for everyone else:
SS2aRn8FLn7BR62Decbi3UQzRE8asPpSe7

EDIT: Note that resulting transaction may be large because you have many small inputs, so it may take some time to create this transaction, your wallet may appear to be not responding during that time.

So, I had to split it into 3 transactions, 5k each. Here are the txids:
d19b5febf6ce0dc80f3319146e9bd6af56627d56deb353dbdffde30fe27a203c

Please, don't give up and keep the coin going! we love it! Wink
3137  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] SpreadCoin on: August 31, 2014, 09:10:36 PM
Yeah, this was bad idea. I was mining from the beginning on several PCs, there were about 80k coins.

Could you setup a donation address? I'll donate as soon as you set it up, and hope others will do the same. This might be over faster than you think!
3138  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] SpreadCoin on: August 31, 2014, 07:34:45 PM
I am convinced the coin has potential.
I was mining this coin almost from its start, and it is really unfair to me to loose all the coins.
I am OK with relaunch, too, but with compensation (swap) for those, who already invested significant amount of effort into mining. I was mining it on my travel notebook as well!

Dev has mentioned he lost 80k coins.
I have mined almost 40k until today, so I can offer him 20k, if he decided not to relaunch, but do the hardfork for new features. And if also the others who have mined more than few thousand will offer around a half, it should be win-win situation for all. It is better to have half reward for the hard work, than no reward and start from the scratch. Also the dev should gain much more from this solution.

Or, if the dev is already decided for relaunch, then please be fair to all and make the swap, maybe like Limecoin -> LimecoinX transition.
I am willing to donate one half even in this situation.

Regards,
Andy

I can also donate around 15K. And the pool proposal continues.
3139  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] SpreadCoin on: August 29, 2014, 12:30:20 PM
I think I found a way to recover my spreadcoins but you may not like it.

As I lost my wallet.dat I don't know exactly what blocks I mined and exactly how many coins I had.
I can approximately determine block before which my lost coins are situated. Everyone who have mined coins before this block will send them to him/herself (this can be made automatic). This will mean that this coins are not mine. Then, using some hack and releasing a new client I can send myself amount of the rest coins (or maybe less, say 80%).

This rasises two concerns:
1. What if someone will forgot to send coins to him/herself? These coins will still be spendable so he/she will not lost them. This raises the second concern:
2. What if I am a scammer and want just to double my coins, keeping old ones and getting new ones? The only way to prevent this that I see is to limit the percentage of presumably lost coins that can be spend but this is not trivial.

What do you think about such a plan? Is it acceptable in you opinion?

P.S. This way there is no need for anyone to donate coins to me.

This would be a hell of a lot of work for everyone, and would also lower the credibility of the coin and kill it for good. I stick with the donations. As I said, i can setup a pool and have like 10% of the coins mined donated to you. Can you estimate how much was lost? I think knowing that amount is essential to making the decision.
