The simplest is halving by block count, but the 95% one isn't very hard either.

how many coins have been mined? Is there a win wallet as i couldn't make it myself.
There are 22.1 million coins in circulation generated through mining and proof of stake. There is a Windows wallet in the 1st post of this thread (aka the announce or ANN post.) |

I like WeAreNakamoto, it sounds pretty good.
The 3 chain options do have their pros and cons:
1. Using the pre-coinswap chain: Would revert coin ownership to before the swap so people who sent in WAS v1 for v2 would retain their coins; a lot of those people may have deleted their wallets though so they may not be able to use them.
2. Using my current coinswap chain and re-enable block rewards: Basically people who missed the coin swap would have coins, for the most part this is probably people who don't keep up with WAS and/or have their wallets anymore since they didn't complete the swap; so it's probably a lot of "dead" coins.
3. Starting from 0: This would give people the option to mine without an existing widespread distribution and the client could be based on a more up to date codebase.

And why you all rejecting smooth division by 5-10% of previous reward?
I've got no problem with it. |

I just mean the 1st halving would have been 6 months if the blockchain had been running smoothly, then doubling after that.
|

Just FYI halving every 11 million coins would be about every 6 months; the only reason it's taken a year to get this many blocks is because of the old v1 diff algorithm that seized the blockchain up so much.

I like how Spots working now. Halving block is the best solution for me. I propose insert half block every 11 million coins.
With 1block=24SPT next half is after ~1 year from 11 million coin date.
That's certainly doable and if we go by our current block reward rate not accounting for the early v1 reward structure would give us about 11-12 days until the hardfork. If we do account for the old reward structure it would be about 9 days (~3000 blocks difference.) and add slightly to the code complexity. |

Ok synced up my old wallet and right now I'm on block 301732
blockhash: df984099bccfe98815a716601c1a3243da9ee944bd5aac8a769f8bfba524030d
FYI: To get the block hash go to the console and type in "getblockhash 301732" see if it matches up.
I don't know if I'm on the right chain but it looks like a lot of others are on this chain so I'm just checking with the rest of the world.
ok, all 3 of my pools are on that chain. Any confirmation from polo as to what chain they are on? Block Explorer is on block 302,389 but that block is in its chain. http://www.crypto2.net/cga/blocks.php?chain=1 |

Are you still connected enough with CoinPayments.net to get that upgraded without a problem?
Yep, no problem there. |
|
|
|
go back to regular scrypt then it will be beaten by multipools + ASICs... Yeah, but it's being beaten by multipools right now anyway. |
|
|
|
|
We can always go back to regular scrypt, even adjust the block rewards to a lower or halving algorithm.

Question for you sir, with making this change, how does one go about removing the coin swap message from the wallet?
If you set a new alert key it won't accept that alert message anymore. |

If you could give me some pointers on how to fork the v1 version so it can work again, please do. I would really appreciate it, and it would get me out of your hair.
The bare minimum would be to fork my repo at https://github.com/WeAreSatoshi/WeAreSatoshi and re-enable block rewards. The current v1 block number is 726259 so for example if you wanted to fork at 726275. In src/main.cpp on line 1259, change: if (nHeight > V2_HARDFORK_BLOCK) to: if (nHeight > V2_HARDFORK_BLOCK && nHeight < 726275) |

My point is, the swap should not have been closed. Please give me a legitimate reason why it was closed before the 14.3m ran out.
We can't keep a swap going indefinitely, wasting time, resources, and electricity keeping the old v1 network running. After a reasonable time pretty much everyone who wanted to swap will have done it already, burning the remaining coins gives people with interest in the coin an accurate view of the number of coins in circulation and proves that we aren't going to try to dump the coins later. Would you have us be running in in 50 years time with probably 12-13 million unclaimed coins left? This is the crypto world where premines that size have a bigger effect on a coin, not the EU where you could trade in your old Marks for Euros for several years because it wouldn't make a dent. I know you are trying for some high grade trolling but nobody is going to fall for it and get behind you. Am I not correct in stating that people can continue the version 1 WAS if they build a network around it? HYP forked off of Truck coin and you were able to keep both coins. Now I know most developers say you can't do that but I witnessed first hand it being done.
Yes, anyone could take the last version of the v1 client I made and make a new fork that starts giving block rewards again if they want to. |

And if v1 is shut down forever, why would you doom all those unconverted coins to complete invalidation? Just because you and your friends are done converting doesn't mean everyone else is done, or even aware they needed to convert in a certain time frame...
We gave nearly a full 2 months which is a lot more than many/most coins do... lots of them let an exchange do it and everyone just gets the one chance to swap. We burned the unclaimed v2 coins after the swap was over so people don't claim we are holding on to them to dump later. |

Wow, only 2 months? I was unavailable during that whole time due to moving to a new state and taking up a new job. I don't see why I should be stuck with useless coins just because you decided on such a short timeframe (which was not on the official site at all BTW). I was not posting FUD, I was angry at my project being taken over without anyone telling me. I created the original website and logo, and considered myself part of the original team. I spent personal money on behalf of this project, and labored many hours on promoting #WAS. No one emailed me or informed me about the new v2, I just found out about it after coming back online after moving and settling in. And FYI if I knew I was supposed to PM someone to get my coins swapped I would have. Why is this information not on the official website, where users are supposed to get information? I can't read through 22 pages of posts to learn important information like that.
This whole process is unprofessional and not becoming of a currency. I will not buy new currency when I have spent months mining it from the beginning, and another month trying to convert it following the official website's instructions of downloading the updated client.
WAS2 (now WSX) was created with community support and approval of the original WAS dev. Your work is not in vain and you are welcome to continue promoting WeAreSatoshi in it's current form. I'm sorry you missed the swap but your post history in this and the other WAS thread proves you knew about WAS v2 and the swap which leads me to think you are just here to troll. As a general rule for 99% of coins if you have trouble you should post in their thread, not let it sit for a month. Sending me the file was just a fallback in case anyone had trouble with the client on their PC; I think only 2 people actually needed to in the end. I hope you can take a look at the new client and the things we have accomplished so far and see some value in it now that it's been some time since WAS v2 came out. |

Ever since downloading the updated v1 client, I have had 0 connections to the network. It's been 4 weeks now since I downloaded the client, and I'm 4 weeks behind. I fear this is a cover-up for all my v1 coins being stolen by this new takeover team. This is the case for the v1 PC client, the link is broken for the v1 mac client so I cannot test it there.
MrData gave everyone the option to send him the wallet.dat and he would do the swap manually. We took down the support for version 1 since the swap ended. You can buy WSX while it's still cheap. Yep, we ran the swap for nearly 2 months and I mentioned many times that people could send me their wallet.dat's for manual conversion. You were one of the early FUD posters so you knew about the swap, why didn't you post or PM if you were having problems? |

I see that the dev is gone from this project but the community remains, good stuff. I might be investing in this coin in the near future
The devs aren't gone, we're still here  |

Just seen in the instructions Note 2: If the amount of WAS v1 or the amount of WAS v2 that would be issued is less than the coin TX fee * 2 (0.0002 in both cases)
does that mean that fee needs to be set to 0.0002 or above ? call me stupid but want to make sure is correct as about to send the big amounts over once wallets updated.
No, you don't have to set a fee; it just means don't send less than 0.0002 WAS or an amount that would have less than a 0.0002 WSX payout. |
