The Terracoin explorer will be down for an hour or two while the database is rebuilt.

The explorer appears to have picked up a forked chain. The daemon has been updated from 0.1.35 to the current git pull 0.1.38

Yep. For few days I will run payouts manually every few hours.
I've just sent a pack of payouts ( including yours )

The algorithm change added in build announced 2 days ago was moved to an earlier date in order to limit the effects of current network abuse.


Our github repository was updated (tag: "v0.1.3-48") with the new block triggering the switch.

We're now building windows binary files and will upload them to sourceforge as usual.

This build will be mandatory at block 181200 which should occur in 4 to 7 days at nominal/current rate, or even earlier if the network rate gets artificially increased again.

Sorry for this switch date update, but we can't let the situation as is.

Please update as soon as you read this, as it becomes difficult to estimate the exact date when block 181200 will be mined.

Well less of a model to predict blocks/day and more of a way to measure performance. For instance, it could help someone tweak their setup to finding longer chain lengths instead of shorter. Or really, just help people understand what their tweaks are doing to performance

No. Thats not what he is saying/asking. 1l1l11ll1l has several relatively nice servers mining, and was wondering why the 24-core server seem to outperform those with a total of 32-cores. Refer to my response above for one possibility why.

Terracoin build 0.1.3-46 is now available for download at our sourceforge
mirror and github repository.

This build will be mandatory at block 185056 (7 to 10 days from now).

This build includes a rewritten difficulty adjustment algorithm, returning
to a common targeting window.
Retargeting will occur at 180 blocks intervals (6 hours) based on the data
from the last 2160 blocks (3 days).

This should remove the difficulty swings we're currently experiencing and
bring more stability to the currency. This update should be the last of our
recent serie about difficulty adjustments.

Known pool and exchange operators will receive a separate email in a few
minutes about the expected impact on their platform.

If it did, ahmed_bodi would have already created one.
