Hi all,

The fork is postponed to March 2020 with plans to rebase to a modern codebase that supports sporks (e.g. Pivx).
We are currently talking to a potential developer to help us make this happen.

New fork block is set to: 1612000
New supply cap is set to: 2B

Please update your wallet to v1.1.1.3 asap to keep on / resume staking and maintaining the stability of the network. Thank you all!
The block explorer at http://explorer.condensate.io has been updated already.

You can find the wallet downloads here: https://github.com/raipat/rain/releases/tag/v1.1.1.3

No fork has happened.  Compare the state of your wallet against the explorer: http://explorer.condensate.io/

I haven't heard of any problems with the current wallet.

You can do a resync or just remove the blockdata-files and download http://explorer.condensate.io/bootstrap.dat to sync from scratch.

UnnamedExchange is compiling a shortlist of coins with an active community, to create a poll later on.
The top 4 with most nominations will make it to the actual poll.

Have a look at: https://twitter.com/ExchangeUnnamed/status/1179652573189459968

"25k uTip Prize for Active Community !!Developers / Community turn to be active coin(Token) / community listed"
...
"Next 2 days users should nominate their favorite coins (More than 1 also fine but in single post) Will shortlist Top 4 active coins and create Poll !"


Please use your twitter account and nominate RAIN. Thank you.

Thanks for the warning.

Novaexchange and Coinexchange are closing. Tradesatoshi will list two coins from each exchange for free.
Users can post their favorite coins on the forum at:  https://forum.tradesatoshi.com/index.php/topic,34.0.html

Please support RAIN and cast your vote! Thanks.

Windows 10 complains about nearly every wallet (of every coin) I try to run. Same for Norton.

If you wan't to be sure, use this tool: https://www.hybrid-analysis.com/
It will start the wallet in a sandbox. I just created a report: https://www.hybrid-analysis.com/sample/08684e39d6d5cad952fb210ab873457b7111b33f7e201cf7cf4ea04d23bbc35d

Not sure why Cybereason reports this file as malicious. All other scans are okay. If have reviewed all recent code changes and also the dev is legit. I am not worried.

What do you mean?

Today the intended fork failed. Our dev @psycho-pat created a new wallet, to set a new future fork block. Please update asap to wallet v1.1.1.1:

https://github.com/raipat/rain/releases/tag/v1.1.1.1

Release notes:

"Another attempt for forking. Please update your nodes.
Stay tuned for an update will follow that disconnects old nodes to make sure the fork will finally happen.
until then, 1.1.1.1 will stake rain with the old rules."

Please have a look at the instructions that were posted here earlier: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1895018.msg52283336#msg52283336

Especially the part that says: "Because of a version upgrade of the database library in the WINDOWS wallet, you MUST perform a manual backup and restore."
All the required steps are in that post.

All current client downloads can be found here: https://github.com/raipat/rain/releases/tag/v1.1.1.0

As a community we decided it be best to first change the consensus algo (and fix the sh$t the original dev created). So, after the fork later this month, we will discuss next steps.
A roadmap, rainmeter (which is mainly a project of the German community)

PS. The current dev is raipat. His github can found here: https://github.com/raipat/rain/releases

1) CoinExchange.io confirmed that they will update before the fork block:

---
Apologies for the delayed response.

Thank you for the continued updates.  We will work to update the wallet ASAP.

Sincerely,

Ham Slice
CoinExchange.io Support Team

2) Please post whatever you want to know in this thread

3) I am NOT the original dev, nor the current dev of this project. I have tried to bring the community together. For that purpose I created a Discord server and cloned the original website (http://condensate.co) to https://condensate.io

4) The original dev (please see opening post) does not respond to any of our messages (via various channels). I am not aware of any problems with the authorities

I didn't have this problem.

Hi everyone,

We are sad to conclude that the fork, implementing the new consensus algo, could not be activated today as planned.
Too few nodes updated in time and the old chain kept being the longer one. Also new nodes had a hard time to find enough updated peers.

Therefore we need to reschedule a new fork and hope that enough RAIN stakers will update in time.

We picked a future block number:

1372000

(which is ~ 1 month from now)


We see that 2 weeks notice was too short, especially during the summer holiday season.
So we postpone the fork for another 4 weeks and will keep reminding the community to update.

Remember: you can update at any time, the earlier the better.


If you did upgrade already, thanks for your effort and support. But please upgrade immediately to version 1.1.1.0:

  https://github.com/raipat/rain/releases/tag/v1.1.1.0

(no need for dumpwallet/importwallet again!)


For everyone else: please upgrade tot 1.1.1.0 straight away.


Binaries for Linux (Ubuntu and CentOS), Raspberry Pi and Mac will follow ASAP.

You can now start updating your Wallet software. Please find the Windows build here:

   https://github.com/raipat/rain/releases/tag/v1.1.0.0

The source code to compile your own Linux-Wallet (or other):

   https://github.com/raipat/rain

The consensus algo will change at block 1328350. So, please update BEFORE then.


Because of a version upgrade of the database library in the WINDOWS wallet, you MUST perform a manual backup and restore.

(So, only for Windows users)


Please follow these steps:

1) Shutdown the old wallet

2) Go to %AppData%\rain  for instance C:\Users\{your_username}\AppData\Roaming\rain

3) Make a copy of the wallet.dat file and store it in a secure location

4) Start the old wallet again

5) Unlock the wallet: Menu > Settings > Unlock wallet   (uncheck 'for staking only')

6) Open the console: Menu > Help > Debug Window > Tab 'Console'

7a) Create a dumpfile with all the private keys. Enter this in the console (bar on the bottom):  dumpwallet rain-dump.txt

7b) This creates a textfile in the same location as where your old wallet executable resides

7c) Verify that this file is created and that it contains information. It will look something like:

# Wallet dump created by rain v1.0.0.1 ()
# * Created on 2019-08-22T15:01:48Z
# * Best block at time of backup was 1317512 (32f150b05f7efe4294a3df402a860a0a8efa18253c54d2c253bd588bf73b217c),
#   mined on 2019-08-22T15:01:09Z

Utdn24e8EQHbDS7TchXHCHiW6BBvYbEmBBjpB5bjFfJRJsZsfqv2 2019-08-22T13:31:08Z change=1 # addr=RCkyMQeSALmoZ37d833szhXAjV7leosa7V
...et cetera...

8 ) Shutdown the old wallet (again)

9) Go to %AppData%\rain  for instance C:\Users\{your_username}\AppData\Roaming\rain

10a) Remove the file: wallet.dat
10b) Remove the directory: database

11) Copy the file rain-dump.txt to the same directory as the NEW wallet executable

12) Start the NEW wallet

13) A new wallet.dat file is created in the directory above

14a) Once the wallet GUI is showing start by encrypting the new wallet.dat file: Menu > Settings > Encrypt Wallet
14b) Enter your preferred password (twice) and click on 'OK'
14c) On the following screen click on 'Yes' to confirm that you wish to encrypt your wallet
14d) The wallet will notify you that it will close, to finish the encryption process. Click on 'OK'

15) Start the NEW wallet (again)

16) Unlock the wallet: Menu > Settings > Unlock wallet    (uncheck 'for staking only')

17) Open the console: Menu > Help > Debug Window > Tab 'Console'

18a) Import your private keys.  Enter this in the console (bar on the bottom): importwallet rain-dump.txt
18b) This could take a while, that's normal. The required time is based on the number of private keys and transactions.

19) Once the import process is finished you can close the Debug window. Your balance should be visible and all transactions should be there.


If - for some reason - you need to do a full resync,  you can download the bootstrap file from http://explorer.condensate.io/bootstrap.dat and put it in the same directory as the wallet.dat

After that, remove the directories:
- database
- smsgDB
- txleveldb

And remove the files:
- .lock
- blk0001.dat
- smsg.ini

Then, start the NEW wallet (again).

The wallet will start processing the bootstrap.dat.
