I cleaned out the /lux folder except the wallet.dat, and when I start Lux_qt it says 0 active connections after waiting an hour.
Is there some config file I need?
I got the lux.conf from discord channel... |

any idea of how can i install the latest wallet cuz this wallet doesn't appear my real balance and idont want to lose what i mined
another thing i have with this wallet (.dat) its a problem cuz when i make backup the page came with (.dat) and doesn't open , will this be a problem ?
Do steps below If you are having problems with your wallet syncing or stuck or not seeing correct balance please to the following:
Shut down the wallet program, keep your wallet.dat safe someplace else.
Delete everything in the lux folder make sure you're using the newest wallet 4.2.0
Unzip this in the lux folder https://bootstrap.luxcore.io/bootstrap.zip
Windows
C:\Users\unsername\AppData\Roaming\LUX
Mac
~/Library/Application Support/Lux
Start the wallet
Once fully synced stop the wallet and place your backup wallet.dat in the lux folder
Start the wallet againI updated my lux wallet from 3 to 4.2, my last stakes are gone  I also get since the update no more stakes although the blockchain was renewed and I am online & released for staking .. I have just re-sorted my wallets and created several 128lux and 64lux wallets for optimal staking .. is this number still best? this is one of my wallets: LPpkCGVAwg5m9dfhPFNxXtx2sxjikLkS7d blocks that was generated by old v3 wallet after release of v4 wallet and activation new protocol will be not accepted/orphans, thats why upgrade from v3 to v4 was mandatory. Also staking after reactivation of POS working properly now, people getting stakes, but keep in mind 2 things: stake reward now still 0.6 till specific block height that will be setting up later when new hybrid POS/POW+MN system will be activated; and second, current wallet type not support of showing stake reward estimates, that feature might be implementing in future. |

New wallet says staking is active which is great, but it's no longer showing the weight or days approx for reward. Should I be concerned about that or are we all good?
Thats normal, current wallet not supporting that feature, might be implemented in future. Hi, I am running the latest version of wallet and it is fully synchronized Regardless this, the amount of coins that i have are not correct and it seems like the blockchain has stopped at the end of January. In https://chainz.cryptoid.info/lux/i can see the correct amount that i own Can you please direct me what to do for having the correct number of coins in my wallet? You need to make fresh instal by deleting everything except wallet.dat from /Lux folder, put into lux.conf command line "staking=0" (without "") for faster syncing. Wait for full syncing and u should see your missing TXs. Dont forget to delete staking=0 after syncing. |

dear, who has information on POS on LUX (for example how many will be with 10 coins and how often) - please share.
It can take pretty much time to get stake from 10 coins, a weeks guessing. |

@ lupanar and @ StoneSoup: THX very much!  Basically I have an old computer I don't use anymore and I was too lazy to sell sitting around idle (i5 760 2.8ghz quadcore on a Asus P7P55D motherboard + 8GB ddr-3). I saw a local listing for a GTX 1050 pretty affordable, so I thought it would be nice to get into mining, just as a learning and fun experience. Don't really have expectations to get a lot of profit, just enough to pay for the card in a couple months and it seems LUX might be a bit more profitable than ETH or ZEC or XMR at the time being. My interest in LUX comes from the fact Doug Polk Crypto shilled for it a few weeks ago. Also, if the coin has some future I could get rewarded in the future by hodling it. But right now having read the last couple posts and realizing there's so much fighting between the community and the team I'm afraid of getting involved.  Do you think the hash rate would be impaired by the CPU and motherboard chipset being so old or does the GPU still perform to its full potential even on such an old platform? Is this proposal to join a masternode by buying 161.2 LUX and get massive returns legit?? I'm a total n00b to the crypto world so i'm like "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is."  I hope my question doesn't come accross as offensive but I'm coming from a place of baby crypto enthusiast and so I'm trying to be super prudent in this mad world of crypto. 161.2 coins would be a huge investment for me. Can you ask all this questions via discord, much easier to give qualify help there. https://discord.gg/X43CA3fCould anyone tell me how many PoS rewards do you have from LUX?
Its still 60%/40% to miner/MN till specific block height that be setted up soon. I manage to make the new wallet sync fast enough (after adding "staking=0" to lux.conf...without the "") .
Though I havent received the last three payments from yiimp. The block explorer shows it as "not redeemed". This means waiting to be processed and confirmed?
Wallet get to be fully synced according block explorer, it might be needed to make clean instal with deleting everythig from /Lux except wallet.dat |
|
|
|
How do I move my wallet to another computer?
The wallet.dat file transfer does not work.
Simply copy wallet.dat to flash drive and paste it to C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\LUX directory of another pc. If another pc havent /Lux so run lux-qt first and that folder will appear. |

Hi everybody  Would anyone have a vague idea on how much LUX / month i could get mining with a single GTX 1050 2GB card, or a 1050 Ti 4GB one ? And their hash rates? Thx!!  Use WTM for rough income calculation http://whattomine.com/coins/212-lux-phi1612Also GPUs hashes list AVERAGE hashrates for Phi Algo -------------------------------------- AMD R9 270x - 2.0 R9 390x - 7.0 RX470 - 12 RX570 - 14.0 RX580 - 14.7 RX480 - 15.7 Vega56 - 24.3 Vega64 - 30.0 Nvidia GT730 - 0.5 GTX660 - 1.8 GTX840M - 2.1 GTX1030 - 3.0 GTX690 - 3.1 GTX960M - 3.7 GTX750Ti - 4.1 GTX1050 - 5.7 GTX950 - 5.8 GTX970M - 6.4 GTX1050Ti - 6.7 GTX960 - 7.3 GTX1050ti - 7.5 GTX970 - 10.3 GTX1060/3 - 10.8 GTX1060/6 - 12.1 GTX980 - 12.6 GTX980Ti - 15.8 GTX1070 - 18.4 GTX1070Ti - 21.7 GTX1080 - 22.3 GTX1080Ti - 28.1 |

You are right, Lupanar. Global hashrates decreased, in turn led to lower diff, hence more rewards for miners.
It is quite easy math. The profit for each miner often stays the same with changes like this as some miners leave. Im not sure if i agree with how it was done, but still sticking around and mining. The MN cost is too high in my opinion, but i knew about it before i started so cant really complain. But expressing ones opinion (polite) should always be welcome How is the new wallet with POS enabled doing? Depends of pool upgrading till latest daemon, think today they will be finally upgraded, at least most of them, and new wallet out as well. |

First sentence in this thread says: We are happy to answer your questions. So someone please answer my question here, because when asked on your discord channel I was first ignored and after that I was ridiculed. My question was about discrepancy between data on block chain explorer and data on one of the pool's website list of found blocks. When you go here https://chainz.cryptoid.info/lux/ you see "Latest Blocks" for Lux. When you compare "Block Height" and "Extracted by" with block height displayed on the pools you can find out which pool have found certain block. I'm correct about that? For example when you click on "AltMiner.net" under "Extracted by", next page that opens shows all blocks extracted by this pool. Am I correct? Its little difficult when under "Extracted by" isn't name of the pool. But comparing number under "Block Height" with corresponding numbers on the pools you can attach name to the address under "Extracted by". I have done that for unimining pool and everything corresponds, there is nothing less and nothing more when I click on that address under "Extracted by" and new page opens compared to blocks displayed on the pool. LQH6iofaGnyHSEbBC4HGrd29v8W7BcPwzV - Extraction Statistics Every block that is found here is also found on the web site for the pool https://www.unimining.net/site/mining. Also tried for some other pools, my logic seems to be correct. Until I do that for bsod pool... When I choose LKDxGDJq5fF4FohAB8zJH24mDDNHDNtqsE - Extraction Statistics It shows all the blocks displayed on http://bsod.pw/site/mining for the lux, and some extra blocks which are listed only here but not on the website.  Will someone explain this, please? Only thing I understood from your post is u want to blocks in explorer should be linked with which pool was found one or another? If so yes, noted, will ask to team about possibility of realization. Btw new block explorer up and running http://explorer.luxcore.io |

Bid: .00141934 LOL
it was .0032 a couple of weeks ago LOL BTC was almost half the price at the time LOL, god, your thick Actually, no. When LUX was 0.003+, it was not "a couple of weeks ago", as he said, but more like a month ago. January 21st to be precise, is when LUX went above 0.003, and January 13th before that. And at that time BTC was $11.5k and $14k respectively. So yeah, LUX price did drop a lot, ~ 2-3 times from the value it had a month ago, and even more than 3 times since 5 weeks ago (at least lux/usd pair). And when something goes down in price by 200% in just a month, people do tend to get angry and frustrated. That's probably why devs are changing the MN payout scheme, hoping to attract new investors that would bring the exchange rate higher than it is right now. No, first and main goal is make the net more secure by adding bunch POW+MNs to existing POS+MNs, say if one bunch will be down for some reason another will be holding the net, + another goal is make Masternodes more attractive to investors , simple math telling that gain will be more then 1000% for MNs holders. Of course miners get hurts about 20% less income but some part of POW reward get to be sacrificed to please security purposes. On other hand there is increase in POS mining, 0.8 to miners instead 0.6 from every block, so POW losses will be partly compensated by POS gain. Anyway decision was made and it wont be changed. Your failing on your first goal, you've taken 20% of the miners reward. How is that attractive to POW?! Reducing miners ability to earn and obtain a master node, but increasing the existing MN holders ability to more easily hold more MN's and the ability to dump in a moments notice. Again, net security is a primary, the goal is setup hybrid POW+MN/POS+MN net that protected from both mining ends, and even with 20% less profit Lux will be attractive enough for miners - some miners will go to mine other coins no doubt but in the same time it will decrease global diff and allow to earn more or less same as before. But again , main purpose is not to hurt miners somehow by giving more reward to MN holders, but protect the chain and all roots/causes are goes from it. |

Is there a calculator to estimate how long it will take to find a block solo mining LUX?
Depend of what hashes you own , but anyway solo is disabled in v4 wallet. |

Today's update from discord
"@everyone We are expecting a final wallet release on Monday which will re-enable PoS.
Time will be finalized after reviewing with Pool Owners.
With PoS in place, this would re-enable MN rewards. Watch this space for an update on time."
Hi lupanar, I have a question for you, which related to masternode feature of LUXcoin. Why statistics for LUXcoin in https://masternodes.online/currencies/LUX/ not shown? What happened with the project or with the website? Thanks for your answers. POS not active yet so masternodes not active as well coz they getting reward from POS, thats why MN.onilne nothing to monitoring now. Thank you. When will PoS be activated? Today's update from discord

Hi, I am running the latest version of wallet and it is fully synchronized Regardless this, the amount of coins that i have are not correct and it seems like the blockchain has stopped at the end of January. In https://chainz.cryptoid.info/lux/i can see the correct amount that i own Can you please direct me what to do for having the correct number of coins in my wallet? you can remove all files from lux directory beside wallet.dat. start wallet, it will re-sync all data . Thanks for your help gscotch I did what you are describing, the blockchain was syncronized again but it came exactly to the same position as it were before. The wallet does not have the correct amount Any suggestion please? If you mean that amount isnt correct comparing what you had in old 3.0 wallet so the coins that were generated by old wallet after new 4.0 wallet release and new protocol activation will not be accepted by chain, thats why amount that u have after upgrading is different. |

Any update on the staking front? Is an entire new wallet coming out or will the current wallet just start staking in the near future?
I'm also interested when and how staking will work with the new wallet. Any updates? Today's update from discord "@everyone We are expecting a final wallet release on Monday which will re-enable PoS.

Announcement from team regarding Lux Telegram chat group
"LUX Community,
We have closed the LUX telegram chatroom down, so we can focus on the Discord Server and testing our products. We understand that some of our users prefer telegram. For those we have the telegram announcement channel, here.
For our users that have active questions you will find that our Discord Server is far superior to the telegram layout. There are multiple categories and subcategories that will answer your questions more quickly and not get lost in the endless scroll of Telegram.
Nothing has changed with the LUX team or our drive to bring LUXCORE and all of its products to market.
Thanks for your continued support,
Brian Oliver, CEO LUXCORE"
