waiting on pools and nodes to update. also it would be lovely if MPOS pools will try to fix their stats

so.... this coin started as a sharkcoin clone (sharkcoin's son).
then we had to fork, to fix for the coin's parameters.
and then moved to Quark 0.9 branch

and now. we go Dark

this is the first quark based with Masternodes
I know this is not very innovative yet. but it was a lot of work

Mandatory update

please update to version 0.11.2.28

added checkpoint, and a fix to syncing issues  (it fixed on my test environment after everyone updated)
also disabled building tests binaries by default.
rejecting old protocol version clients as peers...

all nodes and pools and exchange please update !

sorry for making you work hard
but its important for all to be on same version

Windows wallet: http://www.bloodcoin.cc/DL/bloodcoin-v0.11.2.28-qt.exe
OSX http://www.bloodcoin.cc/DL/Bloodcoin-v0.11.2.28-Qt.app.zip
Git https://github.com/blood2/bloodcoin-0.9

ffpool seem good now... and payment to masternode is working
still waiting on yobit to update if they compiled.

and going to release new version tonight/tomorrow for everyone (pools+nodes)
to try fix new wallet's initial block download

added link in OP, will make an instruction page on the website too

also wrote a workaround for initial wallet sync  (first run wallet with command line arguments: -connect=ns000.bloodcoin.cc -listen 0, or add to bloodcoin.conf)
initial blcokchain download getting very slow after few thousands blocks
the workaround works well, until i find and fix this bug

* still didn't get reply from Yobit about wallet update. (they are updating now)

http://explorer.bloodcoin.cc/tx/b7e4aee3b65fab2280d789366374ecd5a2a4a3c73182a1137e549a2e156fc301
mixing in progress  

good night.. after working on this the whole weekend
community: please try to make idcray and all pools + exchange to update by tomorrow

on next version after the network stable and masternoded, i will release version which will deny version 0.9 as peer

thanks for patience with me and bloodcoin

I never tried more than one
there is a guide for darkcoin (which should work on bloodcoin too)
https://dashtalk.org/threads/reubens-start-multiple-masternodes-from-one-wallet-guide-start-many.4034/
the difference is... port for Bloodcoin is 5011, and of course config file is bloodcoin.conf

idcray, and solo miners 
please update wallets

thank you
still need idcray to update
and need ffpool to need to look blocks

you did? already ? suprnova updates ?

edit: its not suppose to pay masternode from pools, until tomorrow...by the parameters
maybe only Enforcement is tomorrow
do you have tx/block id of the payment to PM ?

perfect !
i think i see you in the list
i wish we can now build a cool stable network and let the blood flow

still waiting for ocminer, ffpool, idray, we-mine-coins, yobit to update. please update ASAP, masternode payments suppose to start tomorrow
let me know once you are on latest 0.11.2.26 and if everything (payouts too) works fine

thanks

basically it is the same procedure as DASH's masternodes
(will be glad if other community members help to perfect instructions for less technical people)

short howto:

0. make sure port 5011 is being forwarded to the PC running the wallet.

1. go to wallet, to Tools->Debug console

2. find account address to fund with exactly 100,000 BOD (in 1 transaction), type in debug console:

getaccountaddress 0

3. send 100k BOD and wait 15 confirmations (with 1 transactions of exactly 100000)

4. in wallet debug console:

masternode genkey


5. edit bloodcoin.conf, add masternode's configuration:

masternodeprivkey=the string from step 4's genkey
masternode=1
masternodeaddr=your.external.ip:5011

6. restart wallet, go to debug cosole:

masternode start

7. your should see your IP when running in debug console:

masternode list

(example: )

yes you need to configure the wallet if you want to run as masternode
will write Instructions/HOWTO later

Wallet update for masternodes version 0.11.2.26

Windows wallet: http://www.bloodcoin.cc/DL/bloodcoin-v0.11.2.26-qt.exe
OSX wallet: http://www.bloodcoin.cc/DL/Bloodcoin-v0.11.2.26-Qt.app.zip
source: https://github.com/blood2/bloodcoin-0.9

* when I updated my Windows wallet, i had to go into Settings->Options, and reset to default settings
  unless the Fee was too high.
