In these cases, sometimes it is better to delete the blockchain files (addr.dat, blkindex.dat, blk0001.dat and the database folder) and sync again.

What I do to avoid to have to sync all again is to make regularly a backup of the mentioned files, so I have a "snapshot" to go back. A few pages ago Graham has published a recent snapshot.

PS: here it is: https://minkiz.co/noodlings/slm/slm-datadir-snapshot.zip

Thank you very much it worked!

I'm testing the v.0.5 version of the qt wallet on Windows 8.
My slimcoin.conf file is
Code:
addnode=39.128.207.165:11858

After 24 hours of synchronising with network I'm still on "846241 block remaining" mark and it's not going on at least since 22 hours.
The debug.log file reports that it's trying to connect to each of above addnode, but is not able to do so (connection timeout).
I have 1 active connection to Slimcoin network.

Should I give up with this Wallet version, or there is something I can do?

364  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is the fair price for the most undervalued coin of the moment? (list) on: June 04, 2017, 02:02:35 PM
There are a couple coins I have in mind.  First is Stratis.  Basically a no-brainer here.

The second one has been getting a lot more attention lately - XtraBytes.  I'm not the best at explaining the tech, so I'll type in some of the ANN page here.

   
"Proof of Signature is the new consensus algorithm for Xtrabytes.  This allows us to eliminate both POW and POS to run our blockchain and is the basis to the 100% rebuild and the breakaway from being a Bitcoin clone. 

STaTiC Nodes are what the Xtrabytes system physically runs on and the mosaic is related to what these nodes so within the system:  Services, Transactions, and Trusted in Control Nodes."


Anyone interested can check the ANN post here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1864397.0

Currently, it is at at an all time high on Yobit and just recently broke 1000 sats on Cryptopia.  Of course, due your own due diligence, but read the story and the implications of what can be accomplished here when the tech delivers.  It is, without a doubt, the most undervalued coin right now.


Thank you very much for your post. Nobody have pointed any important feature of Stratis here, even if it's on the list. Maybe you can add you comment?

Do you how big is the PoS block reward?

https://github.com/slimcoin-project/Slimcoin/blob/slimcoin/src/main.cpp#L1049

Code:
// slimcoin: miner's coin stake is rewarded based on coin age spent (coin-days)
int64 GetProofOfStakeReward(int64 nCoinAge, u32int nTime)
{
    // FIXME static int64 nRewardCoinYear = CENT;  // creation amount per coin-year
    int64 nRewardCoinYear = nTime > POB_POS_TARGET_SWITCH_TIME ? (10 * CENT) : CENT;  // creation amount per coin-year
    int64 nSubsidy = nCoinAge * nRewardCoinYear * 33 / (365 * 33 + 8);

    if (fDebug && GetBoolArg("-printcreation"))
        printf("GetProofOfStakeReward(): create = %s nCoinAge = %"PRI64d"\n", FormatMoney(nSubsidy).c_str(), nCoinAge);
    return nSubsidy;
}

(The FIXME is the old ppcoin code, preserved for reference.) As can be seen from the code, details can be obtained by specifying the -printcreation command-line arg on startup and (in case it slid under your radar) -debug is also required for such loquacious logging.

Cheers

Graham


Thank you!

Correct. You don't need to be online for POS. After sometime if you want rewards from POS you just have to put in your conf reservebalance=0 and acumulated SLM from POS will come.
It doesn't matter amount, but POS starting after 7-9 days (not sure exactly). If you allow POS 24/7 you should know that POS is a little bit CPU intensive

Do you how big is the PoS block reward?
367  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Slimcoin | First Proof of Burn currency | Test v0.5 release candidates on: June 02, 2017, 10:24:08 PM
Guys I'm really not getting it.
From previous posts it seems like if I try to burn constantly the coins I'm minting with PoB (reinvesting the profits of the previous investments) I have to create a new wallet each time, but it this way I'll do not have any profit of the previously burned coins any more, right?
No, creating a new wallet for every "burning" is not necessary. But if you want to stake coins via PoS, it's better to use a separate wallet for it than the one you "burn" coins via PoB wallet if you have low computing resources.

Quote
Does it mean that those with a consistent quantity of burned coins will still receive returns?

BitcoinFX's post was (as I interpreted it) about a distant future where you would have to burn coins with a high value to be able to profit from it. For now, we're far from this point. But if Slimcoin is valued 10x higher and you can conserve your "Effective Burnt Coins" from now until then constantly burning more coins then you probably will be still profitable. But there is no guarantee.

I, for example, have about 3000 burnt coins and I got them back approximately in 2-3 months and from then on all was profit. Like gavrilo77 I wasn't minting 24/7, but let's say 50% of the time, so I could have got the investment earlier.

Quote
But if I fraction them into different wallets/clients I'll never have a consistent quantity of SLMs in one place, thus never receiving any return, right?

No. As far as I understand the whitepaper, you have the same probability to find PoB blocks if you have three wallets with 3000 + 4000 + 3000 than one with 10000 SLM. Only that you will have to run all three wallets.

Quote
The other thing that I hardly understand, if I had a big quantity of SLM and would decide to burn them all, I'll never get returns, as someone stated previously? So what is the right quantity of coins to burn and why?

That depends on the quantity of coins burnt by all users and on the burn difficulty. Burning could get unprofitable for an individual if this quantity is very high - or if suddenly after his "burn investment" the quantity of burnt coins by all users increases drastically.

If, for example, you burn 100000 coins and all other users also have 100000 "effective" burnt coins, then you have 50% of the "burn power" and will mine about 50% of all PoB blocks. But imagine other user decides some blocks later to burn 200000 coins. He will reduce your "power" instantly to 25%.

So burning is always a investment with some risk. If you follow the "Formatted nEffective Burn Coins" number (type "getburndata" in the debug window console) then you have approximately an idea how "popular" burning is. If burning is popular (higher amount), it's more risky; if it's less popular, it's easier to become profitable. In a mature market an equilibrium is probable, but we still don't know which is the "ideal" number of burnt coins (by all participants) Wink

The example I outlined above (about the 3000 coins burnt that I got back in 2-3 months) was in a moment where the "Formatted nEffective burnt coins" score by all users was about 800.000. Now it's already higher, so you will get back your investment later or will have to burn more coins.

And PoS returns are much lower, by other hand you don't need to be online to mint using PoS, right?
Do you know what is a minimum quantity of coins you need to have on your wallet to get some return from PoS?

To avoid the problem I could launch a new SLM client each time, with the newly burned coins on its wallet, but in this way one day my computer resources will be over so I'll need to buy new computers than?
And another question, regarding this statement:
Most future Slimcoin users in this regard would be restricted to doing PoW pooled mining with some PoS interest returns, as doing limited PoB would be unlikely to see any return.
Does it mean that those with a consistent quantity of burned coins will still receive returns? But if I fraction them into different wallets/clients I'll never have a consistent quantity of SLMs in one place, thus never receiving any return, right?

I'm considering to buy a quantity of SLMs, but it's impossible to do so using the exchange.
Is there anybody willing to sell for an interesting price some consistent quantity of SLMs, or maybe someone has a better idea for me what to do to enter?

To PoW mine Slimcoin in the wallet just go to console and type;

setgenerate true

- to mine with all CPU cores or;

setgenerate true n

- where n is the number of system CPU cores that you want to mine with i.e. 1,2,3,4 ...

...

Failing that I have a PoW wallet that I mined around 2,500 SLM to if the offer is a good one.  Cool

- money is only money when its moving

Thank you very much for your answer. I was thinking some bigger quantity, because this kind of quantities are available on Novaexchange, for instance.
By other hand you'd probably will not make much even if I'd offer you the latest market price. If we consider 270 Sat 2500x270Sat is only 0,00675 which is kind of 16$, right? While me was looking for a better price than that, of course ;-)

another dead and or abbandon coin?

This Terracoin is alive and well.  We are just about to implement DASH's masternode and decentralized governance code.

The other terracoin(s) is probably a yobits scam.

Remember it has to be TRC to be legit.  Not TER, or TERRA(TER has been used twice now for scam coins).

Maybe we can think about Terracoin trademark registration after the masternode system is implemented?

Great idea!

The only thing is that we can't show that there is no other product with this name.
Or we can change the name of coin :-p
374  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Terracoin 1.0 (TRC) - Est 2012 on: June 01, 2017, 06:53:07 PM

Thanks this worked great for me. One other question though. So I sent some trc to my wallet before I updated the blocksource, the blocksource is now updated, and my trc have not arrived. Any advice?

When you say you sent them before the blocksource updated do you mean that you were using the old wallet?  Sent from where?

Well my blockource wasnt updating, so I added the nodes as was suggested in this thread. I just downloaded the wallet a few days ago from terracoin.info, so I think it's the new wallet. and I sent my trc from vircurex.

Vircurex is on the old blockchain which isn't getting mined so it will never advance.  See if they have some way to cancel an order (since the blockchain hasn't advanced you may be able to).

I have emailed Vircurex at least 10 times asking them to update their wallet and never heard back from them.  I wouldn't use Vircurex for any trading since their site hasn't been updated in at least 6 months.

You may be able to get another coin out of there, but I would check to make sure their block chain is up to date for whatever coin you try.

Who ever has the .8 BTC buy order for TRC on there should immediately cancel it and withdraw their Bitcoin.

Maybe there is no possibility to withdraw BTC from there as well, because there is no Network Gh/sec information for any coin there.
I think that vircurex where sold from Canadian owners to the Chinese one's, and the latest are just trying to keep the site going on until it will give any income without putting any energy into it and than closing it.
Perhaps it might be a good idea to seek help in the Chinese embassy and to find the owners in that way.

I have 15k ark and 530k xtrabytes.  Xtrabytes has 20 bagger potential.


XtraBytes has the potential to completely change how the blockchain is run, zero bullshit.

What other coin can claim 100% impossible to hack? Including Bitcoin, plus with no mining or POS. I believe in time people might be using this coins technology as the base for many other coins.

To say this coin is undervalued is a joke, it's a potential coin to rule all other coins.

As long as they don't open source the whole project early on.. I maintain that the most valuable aspects of the coin should not be released so other people can copy them, at least not before the coin has become popular and has rewarded it's early investors.

I have 15k ark and 530k xtrabytes.  Xtrabytes has 20 bagger potential.
Sorry, English is not my mother tongue, what do you mean with the world "bagger"?

A 20 bagger would be an investment that goes up 1900%... basically 20 times it's original investment. It's a term used by stock traders in the United States.


Outside of these small ones like xtrabytes, NEM/XEM is still my favorite as the crypto that institutions could adopt due to it's scalability, the ability to handle 3000 transactions per second securely, among NEM's other features. That's the most important aspect of the blockchain.. the services aspect and the tokens especially, are mostly things used to scam people out of their money as of now, which is why I'm not all that excited about ethereum.  Plus there's a dozen different altcoins that do the same thing, and to my knowledge no other altcoin with XEM's scalability as (which is a good thing) NEM has not opened up the entire source code for everyone to see... the Mijin code is under wraps for now.

To my knowledge however, xtrabytes is probably one of the most secure coins out there, that assumes the static nodes aren't under control of too few individuals. I'm not sure how they are distributed right now and who actually owns them all, and because registering closed at block 50,000, I cannot get one.  If a single individual happen to own more than 50% of the static nodes, that might be a bad situation there. This is why they should reopen registration as soon as they are running under the new blockchain smoothly.
Xtrabytes has already more than 20 times target price in our table, do you mean that is should worth 4$ perhaps?
Would would be your estimate for the price grow for NEM and XEM?

There is currently an eth token that only has a marketcap of 30-60k USD currently (just recently finished an ico). I have just found out about and am trying to invest, an equilavent coin currently has a market cap up upwards of 15 million. It is a risk as any coin is, but considering the low, low market cap, once it hits exchanges in a month it will likely rise significantly. If interested send a pm or if enough people ask a bout it I will post it here, I am currently trying to invest and will keep you posted.

I would be glad to put your currency in the list, if you want to stay anonymous in my list, just pm me the price and why you are considering this coin may reach that price.
378  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which altcoin is the most undervalued right now? (list) on: May 26, 2017, 01:57:20 PM
XVC: new team of developers, 1.6 million market cap, zero time transactions (instant transactions), Blended transactions (good level of anonymity),most coins have already been mined, has 3 layers of security (masternodes, pow and pos), is listed on Poloniex and Bittrex. The moment Polo enables the wallet the price might increase as people will be able to withdraw their coins from the exchange and run more masternodes. New Electrum Gui wallet about to be released aswell.

Obs: you can buy and withdraw the coins at Bittrex as they have the wallet enabled on their exchange.

XVC from 1.6 to 5 million market cap since my last post, still one of the most undervaluated coins listed on Polo. It is still very cheap compared to other coins, it can easily go 10x from here. I am expecting something close to 20 million dollars in the coming weeks/months. Some very good news about to come, join our slack community at: https://slack.vcash.info/

Thank you for your contribution!
I've changed the rules, to make the list more objective, so XVC was out of the new list.
I put it in the new list, but I'd like to ask you: do you mean 10x in USD or in BTC, I assumed in USD, if it's not please let me know.
