i saw this https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=670026.0
what can i do ? is there anything for me need to do?

As you know i am still on multipool project, what a pity took long time but there were no other way.

you are free to use materials from website or OP graphics, logos etc.

Keep going, i'll get back to this line it seems i need 3-4 more weekends then we are ready with multipool under different domain name. It took enormous efforts for me, i had to satisfy pool dev to make us some favor in development costs. I'll host few more online ECC nodes Though I can accept the role, bad dev.

I understand you. Community may hate from me because they think i was cause of this price drop.
This was because there were alot of inflation for cryptos, enviroment brought new needs, I was in competent to deal with new eco system in time. Recovering ECC is real hard but i believe it can be if community supports it.

good luck

I told you...
Come on guys, donate to our community wallets asap.

Regards

Guys, please...if you want to make a donation, just make the donation...
If we all keep waiting untill someone else goes first, things wont get moving!
I jumped first by donating 10 000 000 ECC + 0.12BTC and by handing over the wallet to Dr Charles.
It's all a matter of trust...if we don't trust each other, this will be going no where...
So please, transfer your 14 LTC to the community wallet and we will transfer it into BTC, so we can pay Mindfox for the fix.
Show the world how solid and strong this community is!!!

We are aware of that...
Mindfox has contacts within Mintpal, Poloniex,... so all will be fine, don't worry.
Anyway, we have no other option left now hostmaster had to leave...

1.13BTC is about 90 LTC...
We need 50% (0.625BTC) in advance, but we need to be very sure that we can pay him the other 50% after completion!

Update...
Griffith joined the team as a development team member.
His skills are html, css (more or less), php, C#, java, MySQL, Python, and he understands C/C++

Welcome to the team Griffith!!!

We had another chat session with Mindfox yesterday.
I was there together with Daavenger...

It's very clear that we need a fix asap...
Daavenger can confirm this.

As I said before, Mindfox is offering his help, to fix our wallet problem.
He can deliver us secured nodes, a wallet fix (with additional coding), a better version of coin control and a new unlock button.
There will be new wallets (V1.6) for Windows, Linux and Mac.
If we switch to the V1.6, we might consider using a new logo... I like the current one, so I would just change it a little (like make it gold instead of green and add V2 or something like that).

That way we can start with a clean sheet...The world will know that the community took over and overcame the problems we experienced in the past! Eccoin will be back...harder better faster stronger!!!

Tonight I leave for Rock Werchter, so I wont be online for 5 days...
I really, really, really hope all of you guys realize how important this wallet update is...
We all know how hard it is to find a dev that is willing to help us out...
Now that we found one, we really should take this opportunity, not next week, not tomorrow but right now!

I already donated 10 000 000 ECC and 0.12BTC... (so we still need another 1.13BTC in order to pay Mindfox)
If we all do the same today, we can have this fixed by the end of this week!

I will hand over the community wallet to our head of finance, Dr Charles, so he can take care of the payment for Mindfox.

Come one guys...put a smile on my face when I come back next week and I see we have a V1.6 wallet update...

Regards

Goldmaxx

Wonderfull news!
We will get in touch when we decided whether we are going to keep the current website or if we need to build a new one (which I suppose...)

Many thanks!

Goldmaxx

Design team member?

Copy Chicken

Are you applying for a vacancy?
Please let me know which one, so I can send you a invitation to our core team forum.

@Daywalkerneo
@Waytogo
@Daavenger
@Dr Charles

Can you guys please confirm that you still want to be part of the core team?

Hi

As I said yesterday, i think we should rebuild our core team.
Below, you can find the previous core team.
You will see there are a lot of open positions...

Who's on board?

Management: Hostmaster
Marketing:head of marketing Europe = Goldmaxx - head of marketing USA = daywalkerneo
Development: head of development = Hostmaster + Teammember = Waytogo
Design: head of design = daavenger
Finance: head of finance = Dr. Charles

Open positions

1 Design:multiple designers
2 Marketing: 4 heads of marketing (--> South America - Asia - Australia - Africa) + multiple marketing team members
3 Development:1 head of development + multiple developers --> software + web developers
4 Support: 1 head of support + multiple team members
5 Finance: multiple team members
6 Management: I don't think we need 1 guy on top, as we did have in the past.

What do we expect?

1 Designers: you design visual presentations. This includes advertising, brochures, flyers, packaging design, logos, liveries, signs and many, many others
2 Marketing: you are responsible for the promotional part! You launch campaigns on social media, newsletters and real life!
3 Development: You are responsible for the website(s), multipool and client development.
4 Support: You take care of all possible troubles that our clients might encounter
5 Finance: You take care of the financial part. You manage our funds (for promotions and development) and you look also for sponsors.

I take care for the European marketing. My Twitter account = ECCpromotion

Please contact me if you would like to apply to one of the vacancy's, so I can send you an invitation to the core team forum.

regards

Goldmaxx aka ECCpromotion

I am so happy to see this community so active again.
I believe there is a great future for eccoin!
 

OK guys I think we should take the development discussion to the forum.
But instead of making it a private forum, I want to make it public.
The more people there, the faster we get things going.

The forum gives us also a better structure and overview.

I also think we should think again of getting a core team together.
I will post the previous core team structure tomorrow, we can work from there.
There are still a lot of open positions, wich I hope will get filled soon now.

Goldmaxx

This is how mine looks like

{
"blocks" : 193961,
"currentblocksize" : 1000,
"currentblocktx" : 0,
"difficulty" : 37.53923539,
"errors" : "",
"generate" : false,
"genproclimit" : -1,
"hashespersec" : 0,
"networkhashps" : 744853689,
"pooledtx" : 0,
"testnet" : false
}

Some wallets may work fine, but many others dont.
Please don't deny this problem, you are only making it worse...

Hi guys

Here I am, with some really good but also some really bad news!
Let me start with the good news...
I, found someone who is willing to help us solving the sync issues some users have reported.
The one I'm talking about is Mindfox, an experienced freelance dev.

The bad news is...our problems are a lot bigger then we could have expected... Sad Sad Sad
The blockchain forked, multiple times... Undecided Undecided Undecided
Here is a part of the conversation I had on IRC...

[12:35] <mindfox_afw> looks like there are a lot of orphaned blocks in the chain
[12:35] <Goldmaxx> Dunno what's wrong, but several ppl are reporting issues with the syncing
[12:36] <Goldmaxx> You think you can help us out?
[12:36] <mindfox_afw> I know what the problem is regarding syncing
[12:36] <Goldmaxx> and can you fix it?
[12:36] <mindfox_afw> from what it seems, you have multiple forks in the chain
[12:36] <mindfox_afw> maybe more than 2
[12:36] <Goldmaxx> owwww
[12:37] <Goldmaxx> no good...
[12:37] <mindfox_afw> that's why you have people reporting transactions going back to 0/unconfirmed
[12:37] <Goldmaxx> when did the first fork take place?
[12:37] <mindfox_afw> I have no way of really knowing
[12:38] <mindfox_afw> you see, the ones I'm syncing from now, knows only one fork as the correct one
[12:38] <Goldmaxx> ok
[12:38] <mindfox_afw> but there are other wallets that think there's another fork that is the correct one
[12:38] <Goldmaxx> damn
[12:38] <mindfox_afw> possibly a group of others, think there's another best fork
[12:38] <mindfox_afw> and so on a and so forth
[12:38] <Goldmaxx> can this be fixed?
[12:38] <mindfox_afw> yes, but it's not going to be easy
[12:39] <Goldmaxx> and what will the concequenses be?
[12:39] <mindfox_afw> we need to issue an update
[12:39] <mindfox_afw> well...
[12:39] <mindfox_afw> first of all, you have to check the exchanges
[12:39] <mindfox_afw> in what exchanges is the wallet currently?
[12:40] <Goldmaxx> Many, Mintpal, Poloniex, ...
[12:40] <Goldmaxx> like up to 8 exchanges
[12:40] <mindfox_afw> ouch
[12:40] <Goldmaxx> indeed
[12:40] <mindfox_afw> and you have no working explorer, huh?
[12:40] <Goldmaxx> ouch
[12:40] <Goldmaxx> nope
[12:41] <mindfox_afw> and no block signing....
[12:41] <Goldmaxx> doesn't look good I guess?
[12:41] <mindfox_afw> well, here's the think
[12:41] <mindfox_afw> *thing
[12:41] <mindfox_afw> when we decide to go with one fork (which of course is what we must do)
[12:41] <mindfox_afw> we will make all the other forks invalid
[12:41] <Goldmaxx> yes
[12:41] <mindfox_afw> that means that whatever transactions were made, will be invalidated also
[12:42] <mindfox_afw> do you understand what that means for the exchanges?
[12:42] <Goldmaxx> oh dear...and god knows how long ago the first fork took place
[12:42] <mindfox_afw> yes, exactly
[12:42] <Goldmaxx> so, what do we do first?
[12:45] <mindfox_afw> first, we negotiate my price Smiley

Mindfox is willing to help us out for a very reasonable price...

[12:45] <mindfox_afw> let me ask: do you have servers that can act as full time nodes for the coin?
[12:46] <mindfox_afw> and do you have any secure (really really secure) server?
[12:46] <mindfox_afw> or should I include those also in my price?
[12:46] <Goldmaxx> I think you should include that as well... :-s
[12:46] <mindfox_afw> ok
[12:47] <mindfox_afw> to be on the safe side, we will need 4 nodes + 1 for signing
[12:47] <Goldmaxx> ok...
[12:47] <mindfox_afw> unless you have a computer that can be online 24/7 ?
[12:47] <mindfox_afw> but has to be connectable node
[12:48] <Goldmaxx> I dont, maybe other community members
[12:48] <Goldmaxx> but lets asume we dont
[12:48] <mindfox_afw> ok, for 1st month it's $10 / node (including the setup and configuration for it to act as node)
[12:49] <Goldmaxx> ok
[12:49] <mindfox_afw> all prices that I am charged in $ and we'll convert them in btc, ok
[12:49] <mindfox_afw> ?
[12:49] <Goldmaxx> so far so good
[12:50] <mindfox_afw> for the signing node, I charge $100 ($10 node + setup + hardened security because it can't be compromised in any way)
[12:50] <Goldmaxx> ok
[12:50] <mindfox_afw> + 0.5 btc for the fix
[12:50] <mindfox_afw> now, if you want to include advanced control in it and a better unlock button, I can merge the price for 1 btc + extra from nodes
[12:50] <Goldmaxx> Sounds reasonably
[12:51] <mindfox_afw> advanced coin control gives the ability to select which transactions to take coins from
[12:51] <Goldmaxx> Sounds great
[12:51] <Goldmaxx> honestly
[12:51] <mindfox_afw> that allows the user to use the most recent transactions (thus getting more profit from PoS minting)
[12:51] <mindfox_afw> I hope you'll find my prices reasonable enough Smiley
[12:51] <Goldmaxx> I do mate
[12:52] <mindfox_afw> I try not to overcharge coins that are community driven Smiley


Ok, so here is the deal...
This is the time for the community to act!!!

If we don't fix this bug, ECC is doomed to die within days...
We need to collect 1,25BTC asap, so Mindfox can help us out!

I hope everyone understands the importance of this action?
1,25BTC is all we need in order to get going again, no longer under the dictatorship of Hostmaster, but as a free community!!!

Mindfox will accept a 50/50 arrangement...50% in advance and 50% after the fix!!!

Please make your donations in BTC here: 1LxTKMQKEcokUeZS8wDcdWBCbxXZ321kGN

And please dont forget...if we don't act now...all our efforts were in vain...
Today is the day of a new beginning!!!

I converted my 40.000.000 ECC donation to the dev bounty into BTC.
1,13 BTC left to reach our goal...come on guys!!!

Very important update!!! Please read carefully!!!
