wallet would not sync. so i did the bootstrap thing. it went to the wallet icon on the desktop,then went to 92% and has stuck there for over 4 hours??? do i restart or leave it?

unable to check my rewards
can't login to my orderbook.io. or can't reset the passward also. is there any guidance.

I had version 1.3.3... Do I need to go back and upgrade to 1.5.1 and then upgrade again(I thought this was fixed), or... and where do I find version 1.5.1?
Also, my wallet is not connecting to any nodes atm ("NO BLOCK SOURCE AVAILABLE")?
edit : I cannot find a .conf file in windows under appdata/roaming/earthcoin etc...is it somewhere else? I would like to try adding the nodes you listed but cant do it through the console..

I have upgraded my wallet but it seems to be stuck on block 1591847? any reason for this?

EarthCoin (EAC), one of the "classic" altcoins that has been here since 2013, was controled by a group of hackers for several months, who did not let anyone else mining this coin. Any attempt to extract a block of this coin failed up to now - all the blocks found by someone other were promptly orphaned. The original EarthCoin developer team did nothing to stop this mining monopoly, so we have decided to take the initiative and get this coin out of the clutches of those evil miners.

We have made the necessary changes to the source code and created a new network in which anyone can freely extract EarthCoin blocks. The party is now coming to the end. To follow this new, liberated EarthCoin, start using the following wallet.

New version 1.5.2. Upgrade your wallet as soon as possible!
Version 1.5.2 implements the protection against a large block reorganization and marks all coins extracted in the monopoly episode as invalid.
Source code: https://github.com/Sandokaaan/earthcoin
Windows 32/64 bit: https://mega.nz/#!UTQRFY7Q!pl7Z3UBxhTDG-qfCQEUY6P7WBmjo7LAW5V2bSanlQ5I
Linux 64 bit QT: https://mega.nz/#!tDQS3JIQ!1qbSlSuhwNOmh2k8a0yeT-Sezt7VIWjpQ_NQhHIIGnM
Workaround if sync from scratch or from version 1.3.x failed: do the sync with wallet version 1.5.1 and then upgrade to 1.5.2. The code will be fixed in a few moments. Fixed, sync should work now - compare your blockheight with blockexplorer.
Bootstrap file for a faster sync can be downloaded here: https://mega.nz/#!4S4UnBYL!ra_Tyf3nJwi9YXb-Dgz0OGIBKNJzqzWHJaMabPtp2D8

For those who have never heard about the EarthCoin, there are some technical parameters:
- algo SCRYPT
- mining type POW
- block time 60 s
- block reward variable - superblocks every 14 and 31 day, seasonal bonuses

Primary announcement of the EarthCoin can be found here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=379236.0
EarthCoin is listed on coinmarketcap https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/earthcoin/

Warning: Do not send your EarthCoins (EAC) in the next few days, the network can be temporarily unstable and you might lose you cions. Once the transaction is secure, a message will appear here.
Make sure your are using wallet version 1.5.1 or 1.5.2 before you send your EarthCoins.

Older versions EarthCoin wallets (1.3.2, 1.3.3, 1.3.4, 1.4.0) are still under the control of attackers and will not be supported after Sept-24, 2017. Upgrade your EarthCoin wallet to the newest version 1.5.2.
Upgrade is mandatory for all miners and mining pool operators. Version 1.5.1 is compatible but can experience a higher ratio of invalid blocks.

You are right, I was pondering this also and came here to ask the very same thing!!

Is there any way we can get a write up of all the tokens currently available on the Ubiq platform? I'm sure I'm not the only one pondering myself and Google with this question.

I keep hearing it's dead, and it might be. But the mining reward has recently changed, along with new wallet software.

Seems they are doing a lot of work on the back-end as well.  Why would you quietly be working on a project... if it were completely dead.

If they were just setting up a scam.. I would expect a whole lot of hype, and posts.. a few videos.. some pictures.. more rumors of sites offering 1 gram per coin .. or at least a BJ.





As far as sync goes, for a new wallet.. it sucks

I am sharing my blocks folder via a torrent:

https://youtu.be/s2Ee0coxhNc  (in the video description)

let me know if you have problems downloading.

Remember, never trust anything from the internet, specially something from a Torrent from some strange guy on the internet.

But I am uploading it anyways.

If there's successful 51% attacks occurring BTC-38 won't fix its wallet until the attacks stop for good.

I did the same thing. I paid like 20 times more than I paid in the ICO to load up on more Veri. The more I learn about Veritaseum, the more I believe I hit the jackpot.

PM sent

No nodes...

Do you know what annoyed me?
Not that he copied dozens of other coins
Not that he wastes time on other projects
That is his own problem.

What annoys me is:
that "Max", who cloned Quark, works together with immoral people.
If it was about fiat money, I would call it a "criminal organization".
For Max and his friends the alt coin scene is a "wild west" scene; Everything is allowed.
Therefore instead of a "criminal organization" I will call Max and his team a "wild west organization".

And yes, he can code (or copy/paste), that is why he is included in this wild west organization.

Every clone of him follows more or less the same pattern:
Coin is announced as a fair new coin without a pre-mine, it is always picked up by the same mine pool, and after it is mined as hell (by this "wild west organization") the coin is listed at the same shady exchange where all his coins (also the ones which are more or less dead) are listed.
How shady the exchange is, I did read here in this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1221426.msg12934107#msg12934107

And then the scammers he cooperates with. At Quark we all know of course Digitalindustry. But there are more like this one;
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=299308.msg10667896#msg10667896
(I call him the UNO scammer, because he runs a moderated UNO thread at bitcointalk where you can find his dozens of sockpuppets).
"Max" now and then visits the UNO thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=527500.msg10067608#msg10067608
This UNO scammer also now and then visits the Quark thread, therefore I am confident he holds a significant amount of Quark too:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=260031.msg11199646#msg11199646

The complete "wild west team" is an anonymous group of people, hiding their self behind their sockpuppet accounts.

And what annoys me the most is that Max announces his copied coins as a "community coin". He and his team creates a "foundation" for his coins. The foundation is usually a group of naive, integer people who market his coins. Meanwhile the "wild west team" is cashing the mined coins.



Don't be afraid, he and "his friends" has more than enough to manipulate the Quark market on the right moment. Just be patient. You don't need to do anything.

More important still what is max saying?

If he is wasting time on these other coins with a load of different usernames then that is a very bad indication for the future of quark.

If those allegations are groundless then lets hear what he says. I hope they are groundless.

Wasting time on these projects whilst neglecting an aged and famous coin like quark is foolish.

Let's hope he says something anyway soon. Also if he is 100% going to focus on qrk now i hope he has incentive to see it through.

The first 4 would be my short term goals. Anon has pluses and minuses that I would like to actively discuss. I would add side chain implementation as well to the list. Quark at its core was originally about innovation, transaction speed and security - I would like to build towards those as the central principle.

Now that is a superb question.

I have not opened my Quark wallet for some time for a number of reasons which are not important.

However, when I did so, it would not sync. I fixed that by searching via Google for some recent addnodes to add to my conf file. Why the older ones from just September last year did not work is anybody's guess, but it surprised me. Anybody less capable than me would have been stuck.

Next of course was the fact that being so out of date, a recent blockchain snapshot (bootstrap.dat or whatever) would have been nice. The only link for that was a torrent that was not available to me until I registered on the Quark forum. I did that hours and hours and hours and hours and hours and hours and hours ago, but have not yet been authorized to download even that torrent file.

I cannot yet even post to the forum because ... well you tell me.

Meantime my wallet is syncing the old fashioned way. In a couple of days it might get there.

Not good enough guys
