the website is backup

http://starcoin.info/Starcoin.zip

with a diff of 0.01 there is some easy mining of this coin

Because ther is no issues with the coin, there was no reason for cryptsy to delist it.

If everyone can be asking him to relist it, perhaps he will, when he sees there is still big interest in this coin.

The coin is working fine without problems, since the last fix.

I can still help, but I think the community should nominate somone else more devoted, who has more skills and time and who wants to take over development and marketing of the coin.

This is opensource anyone can take over development and make improvments if its needed.

Its not up to me whether or not the coin dies, but up to everyone who uses it.

OK the blockchain is blocked for pow (the blocks created are only pos at this time), so we need to regenerate the last few pow blocks in order to make the coin function normally again. We don't know the reason why it is blocked, the same thing happened several times with other coins too, it looks like a rare bug somewhere in the pos code (since all happened to pos coins).

We determined the last good pow block is around block 191569, so we regenerate the pow blocks starting there.

The blockchain seems ok now. This is what you need to do to get onto the right blockchain and start to mine again:

Download the rar file here (note this is a big file 206M because it includes the blockchain data - if your download speed is low, try to compile the client yourself then sync from scratch):

https://mega.co.nz/#!doBjnBgb!JONo0kV4g3VFOPVsMkuiiHZPYbwB0urka2CLcC3_dPU

unrar the file, there is a new qt exe for windows, and data files for the blockchain (under conf dir).

If you are not using windows client, then you need to compile your own executable (windows you can compile yourself too). This is how you do it:

- get all files from the github
- add the following lines in main.cpp, at the beginning of CheckBlock function:
Quote
   // blacklist
    if (GetHash() == uint256("0x00000002a2b7d72cb60264cdffd16b74237f442e67af9377cf45566c8b67315c"))
        return error("CheckBlock() :191569 hash == 00000002a2b7d72cb60264cdffd16b74237f442e67af9377cf45566c8b67315c");
- compile

the code blacklista the block 191569 and cause the blocks following it to be regenerated.

This client is temporary. You don't need this client and blacklist code once the new blockchain catches up with the old one, which will take about a day, after it, you can use the old client without any problem. The only purpose of the new client is to not sync to the old blockchain.

With the new client, you can just start and sync from scratch (delete everything in config dir EXCEPT your wallet and conf file, again don't delete the wallet.dat file). But the sync will takequite long, so you can use the downloaded blockchain data files (those under conf dir). Make a backup of your config dir, then copy the files in downloaded conf dir (databse dir, and blk0001.dat, blkindex.dat files) to your config dir, and overwrite the existing files.

Also these addnodes:
addnode=63.246.129.56
addnode=198.136.62.201
addnode=108.62.211.51

Now start the client, you should be in sync with the new blockchain and you should be able to mine.

Because the existing blockchain is longer than the new blockchain, you may see the client say "xxx blocks remaining", as long as you are at block 191930 (current) or later, you should be able to start mining.

Hi pimps. added new checkpoints which we think will fix any issues

download the new version (1.3)
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B-_cT_EUbb3oSGhkOWh5ODRidjA/edit?usp=sharing


https://mega.co.nz/#!cg0jXLQQ!OaB3vCxB3H6WPFq3yJFWVBTfDgUaOqx_xl--i78w3pk


have updated the home page and OP post

the wallet sync is fine, just may take some time (1-1.5 hrs sinc from scratch), and there are some orphan chains around,
it takes time for the program to figure it out, but the blockchain is fine, and mining works fine also.

Happy mining!!
