Yes it will show as a Bitcoin Miner trojan, because it does contain the same code as the Bitcoin wallet.  The current BATA wallet is derived from an older version of the Bitcoin core (0.8.6.2).  I would interpret this as a false positive.

I have been running this wallet for a while now and have not noticed any irregular behavior compared to other wallets.

It's good to be aware of any virus detection that occurs with the wallet.

Thank you for the heads up!

hmm,
one point of interest, since Fly is a rare coin with numbers below 1 billion.

In a standard masternode system,
those coins being held do not stake, which is no issue for PoW coins,
however for a PoS coin, this would decrease the amount of staking coins and decrease the network difficulty, thereby weakening your PoS Security.

However your FlyNode,
there would be no decrease in network difficulty and in fact since these nodes will be running ~24x7, should cause an increase in your PoS Security.   Wink

For a PoS coin Flynode design would be better than the old masternode design, from a security standpoint.

 Cool

Do you have any math to back up your statement?  I don't see that it holds water.


Hmm,
it should be apparent , but since you asked for math ,
here you go.   Smiley

hashProofOfStake <= [Coin-age] x [Target]      
[Coin-age] = [amount of coins] x [days in stake]      
      

 Cool

I wish modeling p2p networks and staking wallets was that simple.  How do you factor in user perception and statistical variables such as the number of nodes vs Flynodes?

thanks for your reply. I guess I should have mentioned that I wanted to cpu solo mine. I'm pretty sure 5-10 MH/s is way above anything that my cpu could produce.... right?

Yes. If all you have is CPU's to mine with, you can use MinerGate and mine Monero and Ethereum Classic and other coins on your computer or laptop.
344  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ^-^-^- SPACE COIN [SPACE] REVIVAL POS / POW ^-^-^- on: September 14, 2016, 02:44:13 AM
Can you solo mine this coin? If so, can you do it through the wallet?

Yes.  A quick rule of thumb is if you have around 10-25% of the Net Hashing power you could successfully solo mine using your wallet.  It would be based on the amount of coins rewarded and the value of the coin.

Looking at the block explorer http://space.midnightminer.net/ I see a Network Hash of ~27 MH/s, so if you have a 5-10 MH/s ASIC Scyrpt miner you could solo mine and win blocks.  Is it profitable... that depends at what you can sell the coin at and your operating costs (cost of equipment + electricity).

Pow & PoS Halving Occurred

In case it slipped by you and you have not noticed yet.

PoW (mining) rewards are now 8 Coins

PoS (Staking) reward are now 16 Coins

To help balance things:

 - Coins to unlock Flynode should not stake or receive bonus, only Flynode fees.
    - public posted address that shows in the Flynode list in the wallet.

 - Random selection of node is not guaranteed random.
    - Use an order of sequence from the list of known nodes, and each wallet will step through the Flynodes that are visible to their wallet.
    - Flynode goes down, it loses it's priority and works from the bottom again. 
    - Reliable Flynodes stay in the cycle and receive consistent rewards.
    - Bad actors will receive less rewards.

 - Flynode should not have an active wallet
    - Coins to unlock a Flynode should not need to be in the wallet of the Flynode (you are setting up attack targets).
    - Use an Address and secret key combination to unlock the node. 
    - The rewards are set to the Address that is running in another wallet (secure behind a firewall).

Doh, Bittrex has auto-sell feature in their lab tab.  I did not even know it was there. Have no idea how it got turned on, but that was it.  Cost me a pretty penny to find out though!



I was watching the trades and scratching my head wondering what was going on...  sorta makes sense now!

Good news the spread was not too large.  You will make back the loss when BATA goes past 2k sat.

PC888- Glad to see you back posting! What level of funding are you looking at for the Barter System?

Initial research into platforms I have found a suitable choice and obtained price quote for the barter platform:

Example quote:

Standard Service Setup Fee US$ 500

One time Standard Software Operating Fee
This fee is a combination of the following:

a)  Minimum fee
b)  % of trade volume
 
Monthly fees will be higher of a and b.
 
By way of clarification, software provider will charge 1US$ for transaction of US$ 100.
 
 
a)US$ 350 Monthly
b)1% Monthly
 

Fees include following features,
 
-          Market place with BTA branding

-          Administration section

-          Mobile friendly marketplace

-          iOS App with BTA branding

-          Android App with BTA branding

-          SMS notification (SMS gateway charges will be paid by client)

-          Phone posting (IVR charges will be paid by client)



This quote I have provided has yet to be negotiated to whether we can strike up a deal.

The software would be customized for use of BTA replacing a trade token.

I am not saying that this is the final choice for a Barter platform, but just an example of what pricing would be.

On top of this there are advertising costs for initial campaign. Ongoing advertising costs will come out of fees generated by the platform.

Will this platform be able to keep the anonymity of the participates if Tor or i2P is used?  Does this platform support Tor/i2p as there are exchanges that reject these connections.

This may be a market under-served at the moment.  Not another Silk Road, but a barter system with anonymity build into the platform for those who wish to use it, for legitimate reasons of course!

Dev has refused to support a coin? It seems there was the fork.  

There is an issue with this coin forking, not sure if it's malicious intent or not, but it is happening often.

I have 2 nodes running and maintaining the blockchain and a block explorer.

Explorer is found here:
http://ams.midnightminer.net/

nodes for amsterdamcoin.conf:
Code:
addnode=ams1.midnightminer.net
addnode=ams2.midnightminer.net

I am looking at the wallet code in my spare time to update the code to reduce the forking.  I hope that Keesdewit will allow a pull request into the soucecode once I finish the updates.  I have been pulled into other projects at the moment, so hang in there, an update is coming.

Updated website and OP - corrected the links to Paper & Windows wallets. I added link to Mac wallet download.

Let me know if I missed something.

Ah good!  I was looking for the wallet, until I read you accidentally trashed some files on the website.

I will probably compile from source, when I get a moment.

Are you considering a transition from PoW to PoS or even a transition stage where the wallet will be hybrid PoW/PoS?  This transition would be more like a soft fork to make the transition easier for the user (certainly not for the developer).  I find that these wallet changes and hard-forks happen to quickly and people get left behind on the old chain as not everyone checks the forums and websites everyday or week. 

If you know of a developer who can code a POW/POS Hybrid I would offer a bounty.

Going through the wallet code, then I can make some suggestions on path forward.

The updated source code at GitHub has new seed nodes since it was updated with the wallet update in August.

I'm quite sure there are several forks.
I have a wallet with 4 connections on block 2799
and a second one with the nodes from the OP on block 4791
100 blocks ago (@4678) my wallet was synced with ypool, but around block 4800 they took an "own way" and have now a difference of >50 blocks.

Definitely there is something wrong...

Wallet code needs checkpoints until you get more nodes.  If dev can implement it, dynamic checkpointing will help a lot.

Other option is to set up 2 seed nodes that use connect= in .conf to connect to the mining pools.  If wallets use the seed nodes this will reduce the chance of forking probably caused by the latency between pools or solo miners.

Hello devs, any news from yobit?

Support tickets are in and I have not had a response from admins at YObit.

Not having the coin Deposit/Withdrawal working, is holding up our coin promotions.

I have a request into Bleutrade for listing Space and waiting to here back from Bleutrade.
We have votes in a Cryptopia, but this does not seem to be a popular exchange as not many people are voting for the coin here.

Spacecoin is currently listed on NovaExchange and MegaCrypton.

There is some trading happening on NovaExchange.  So these exchanges will need to be our focus for trading until we can get onto more exchanges.

YObit has experienced many wallet issues with numerous coins for the last 6 months.  I don't know how to interpret that as an exchange with too much growth, lack of resources to handle operations, or is there instability in their platform?  We cannot continue to rely on an exchange that holds coins hostage and required payment to fix wallets everytime the wallet is in maintenance we it is not a wallet code issue.

Please leave comments on which of these exchanges you feel is a better move going forward.

Nobody's here?  Is this coin truly dead...because I know if I get rid of my coins, it'll suddenly take off again (my luck)...any dev/users here?

Same here im curious to see if theres any activity

You could always reboot the coin if a few of you are still interested.

I tried out the newer exchanges that have SPACE listed.

NovaExchange interface is working well.  A few have started listing Space on the exchange. (exchange fee is 0.20%)
https://novaexchange.com/market/BTC_SPACE/

MegaCrypton is another story.  The interface still needs some work to improve the user experience.  I put some Space coins on the exchange, but things a still quiet on this exchange.  If the operators continue to improve the interface there is a chance the exchange may catch on. (exchange fee 0.15%)
https://live.megacrypton.com/market/46

I am hoping we can still get on Cryptopia and my next target would be BlueTrade as the next exchange.  Both of these exchanges should give the coin better exposure.
