Problem with wallet.

I am using version: v0.8.7.3-g9288c29-beta And it says that I am up to date but it says current block is 209,238 but I think the current block as of now is 209,839.

Are there any nodes that I need to add to get it syncing properly?

I am on Windows 7 64 bit but only seen a 32 bit wallet.

Thanks

A privacy feature does not make a privacy focused coin. Or in other words an anonymity coin. Sx addresses are a "mild" version of privacy. All they do is potentially scrub the addresses, not more than that.  As I said they are a neat novelty but useless in a coin thats not being used for transactions. Vert decided in Spring it wants to go after the mainstream market-which is the only reason to have gone with sx instead of anon. My position is that that market is going to be dominated by BTC and there will not be room for growth for other coins in the sector. Especially because NOBODY here is working on gaining merchant acceptance anymore. Everyone thinks that it will come around magically, it wont. As I said in the previous post, there has been nothing done in that area since Spring. And rightly so, its hard enough for merchants to accept BTC which is established, to think that they would accept VTC in any meaningful way is unimaginable.

What should have been done (and in my opinion still should be done) is we transform VTC into an anon coin and go head to head with drk and XMR. That market is sill up for grabs. And this was the mistake of Bushido. He could have utilized the 5,000+ community, held a discussion about changing strategy, and if everyone agreed he could have utilized the resources that remain with VTC rather than starting from scratch with zerovert (which could have been huge if it was rolled out better). I understand why he did it, but again, I dont think it was the best idea.

So to answer your question, sx is a privacy feature, but in a coin fighting a  losing battle. VTC is not a privacy coin.


Make Vtc the go to miners coin with the algo change, incorporate zerocoin into Vtc, and then we have something to be excited about. People will be encouraged to mine, and will at the same time be encouraged to use it for their "privacy" needs. It could be the second coin under BTC. Win win. If Bushido did in fact figure out to to do zerocoin, then we would be running on jetfuel because its better than ring sigs/cryptonote etc.

Sx addresses were a neat novelty, but are absolutely useless. Stop making Vtc out to be a "privacy coin", it is simply not.

How does Btctalk handle account bans? Are you still able to log in to your account after being banned because user Vertcoin did login in October. Poramin was created a few days later. Although it is possible maybe he logged into Vert for the first time it October and hadn't realized he was banned months back? That could explain the short time period between him coming back and making a new account.

I'm not going to knock Zerovert's tech, I'm a layman and not qualified to comment. But I still have yet to have seen proof this coin is from Poramin, I messaged him on Facebook to see if it was true but no answer and the Vertcoin account is still silent for months yet it shows it logged on in October so he clearly hasn't forgotten his password. Couple with the fact the whois for zerovert is anonymous while Vertcoin's website is open registrar, I think we just need more answers and transparency, especially in an era where it looks like people's privacy is being eroded every day and giving people false hope of anonymity is dangerous.
