It's dead. We havent been able to maintain more than 1 connection for more than a few hours since we listed the coin. Our logs show it's been at 0 connections 97% of the time since we listed it in June. We've had multiple people send us nodes, and they all work - for about 12 hours, then they drop off again.
We're going to have to remove the coin. Sorry folks, but with 0 connections and no one maintaining nodes, the coin is dead.

We are experimenting with a possible feature of having coins that generate POS actually credit the coins created to users who hold those coins in their AllCrypt.com balance.
A problem we're having in the preliminary testing of this is that SOME, not all, of the POS coins we host chew up 100% CPU time when they are, presumably, staking the POS coins.
I am not a coin dev, but I am a coder at heart. We have patch code that modifies every coin we run at AllCrypt.com (adding in missing features, like walletnotify on those coins that use it, or patching out 'dumb' restrictions like not being able to use the 'move' RPC command on amounts too small to send across the blockchain, etc), so I am personally familiar with a lot of how the code works. I was under the impression that there should not be much, if any, CPU usage for POS mining? You're not running random numbers against a target, it's based on coins you already have, and their age.
Am I misunderstanding how POS minting works? I'm trying to better understand it so that we can mitigate the CPU usage of these coins. In addition, not all coins are doing this. If it were all of them, I'd just throw in the towel and say "POS minting takes too much CPU to leave it turned on for the exchange's wallets" - but coins like JackpotCoin and LockCoin bounce between 5% and 35% CPU time when minting, while coins like LiteCoinPlus and CapitalCoin are consistently chewing up 100% CPU. CoolCoin and DistroBlitz are coins we've had to turn off, those never drop below 100%.
It seems the "polite" coins use about 25-30% CPU and the others take all they can.
We'd love to have the feature, but cannot afford to have wallets dominating the server because they are running wild with CPU time minting POS blocks.
If anyone has any insight on what exactly happens with POS minting, links (I've tried searching, all I find is links to options for bitcoin for POS, and not anything technical about how it works), insight on why some coins are nice and others go nuts, we'd love to hear it.
Thanks,
Ed

How is it dead, if it is on a dedicated seed node, an active blockchain and is still being mined?
Can someone point me to this active blockchain? The AllCrypt.com wallet has 4 connections and hasn't gotten a new block since July. |

GOODCoin has been chewing up 100% CPU on one of our servers, and we're about to shut it down, because no POS coin should be using 100% CPU all the time.
Can someone explain why this might be happening? POS should not be killing our CPU. We'd appreciate a PM response so we don't have to disable the coin.

Source code is completely broken. The makefile.unix is empty, the clientversion.h which supplies version numbers is empty... hell, half the files in the source code are empty.

Nevermind - got it working. Moved it to a newer server (digibyte was on our first wallet server which we are phasing out for newer/faster hardware) and it works fine. Must be because of older software on the old wallet machine.
|

Starting the new digibyte with an EMPTY (except for a digibyte.conf file) directory gives us:
: Error initializing wallet database environment [removed for security].digibyte!
Yes the directory exists. Yes there is a readable digibyte.conf file.
But it wont start.
If anyone has a solution please send a PM or support ticket on allcrypt.com
can you do a ldd on the digibyted daemon binary ? and a 'file' on the same binary ? I had a similar issue if I remember correctly either with trying to run 64bit binary in a 32bit OS (debian both), or I had this when I compiled with libdb5.1 but had old libdb4.8 around and digibyted tried to use that one. Can't remember which case it was, I think it was the second one. We compiled it from source. We only have one libdb version on that server. Its not a compatibility issue there. |

Need a KARM dev to get in touch.
We did the upgrade from the old KarmaCoin to the new Karma. We are running 8.6.5. Our current block matches the current block on the explorer.
When we did the upgrade, about 15 million KARM disappeared.
We've run internal audits four times. Every single deposit we have crediting to a user exists in the blockchain (gettransaction <txid> returns with an amount that matches our internal accounting). Every single withdrawal is matched. No deposits or withdrawals are duplicated. No transactions, sales, or buys are duplicated.
Running a total of all KARM deposits since we listed the coin totals X. Running a total of all withdrawals totals Y. X - Y is about 15 million. Our current wallet balance is 81k, current user balances is about 15mil.
So, where the hell did the 15mil karm go?
We've re-downloaded the blockchain, and we've restarted with a -rescan option.
15 million KARM are just - gone. And it happened when we updated to the new version.
So - for now - KARM is shut down on AllCrypt. Until someone contacts us with an explanation of what exactly the heck happened.

Can someone explain why A3Coin is using 100% cpu on our servers if it's not mining? Staking should not be using 100% CPU...
|
|

DistroBlitz is being put into cryo-sleep on AllCrypt until someone can explain why it's chewing up 100% CPU when staking and mining is disabled. It's killing the other coins on the server.
If a dev can provide a fix, we'll bring it back, but for now, we can't dedicate an entire CPU to a coin no one is trading.

i sent some coin to your exchange still nothing, no pending or anything
And did you file a support ticket? Did you read the announcement blog post plastered over the top of every page on the site? |

I am sorry your having such a hard time with this, maybe I can help get things set up. First off what are your trying to get it compiled on, I am sure it is a Linux variant just which one, if you need a binary we have some linux precompiled binaries that should run on about any thing recent, if your want into to compile it on your own then a little more info and I'll try to see if I can build it and maybe can identify the issue. Yes I know some of the libs are a pain, you have to compile the boost 1.55 before hand and include it. Anyway if you are willing to provide the info I'll try to help.
Jarrid
What is so special about 1.55 that it's absolutely mandatory? A coin that has nearly zero traffic is not worth that amount of work. |

As usual, the FLT source uses non-standard or version-locked libraries that make installing this coin a MASSIVE and ROYAL pain in the ass.
The compile is complaining about missing boost libraries that we have installed.
We're removing FLT, I'm tired of wasting hours trying to get it back up every time there's a change.
Want to know why it's been down on Cryptsy for a week? My guess? They don't have the time to screw with it either.
We have nearly 200 coins on AllCrypt.com - FLT is the ONLY one that is routinely an hours-long process to update because of the way the dependencies are handled.

Just a notice: I am re-downloading the CPTL blockchain again. If this does not fix our issues I am immediately removing the coin.
Because of the forks and stupidity surrounding getting the blockchain to "sync" onto the "correct" chain, our CPTL wallet is insolvent by over 2.7 MILLION CPTL. We credited users for deposits which then apparently disappeared once we applied the "fix" that solved the problem (that should have never been a problem) with the 'you need to upgrade' error. Found this out yesterday when someone made a withdrawal and there wasnt enough coins in our wallet to cover it.
On vacation with my family, and having a panic attack that the site was hacked or there was a bug, I ruined 2.5 hours of my family's vacation (a very public "fuck you" to the amateur idiotic coin devs for that. Yes, not very professional of me, but I'm fucking pissed off) only to find out that at SOME POINT in the past valid deposits were made - yet now after the "fix" - they longer exist in the blockchain we're on. So over 2.7 million coins - poof - gone. AllCrypt customers who paid BTC for them and now cannot withdrawal them - yeah - imagine how pissed off they are they bought imaginary coins from a blockchain that no longer exists?
So I'm re-downloading it again, using the latest nodes posted, and if we're still insolvent I'm just deleting the damn wallet. Anyone got an admin email at Comkort? I'd like to let them know what a clusterfuck this coin is.

loved CGA but seems its dead now  AllCrypt is apparently on a bad chain and nothing works. We're removing the coin until we get info from a dev. I'm not wasting hours trying to fix yet another shitty altcoin no one cares about. "No one" NOT referring to those people not heavily invested in it, and screaming at my support staff to "fix your shitty website", when the people who made the coin let it fork and don't care about it. |

FLT STILL down on AllCrypt.com as the github has not been updated in over 2 months.
Dropbox is NOT a public source code repository.

Wow, nice. I'm popping around forum threads to see how the coins that AllCrypt supports are doing (see if you catch Mintpal or Bittrex doing that) - and I see that not only is AllCrypt NOT listed under exchanges in the OP - Bittrex *IS*
AND...
They de-listed the coin. You have a link to an exchange that removed your coin in the OP, yet, no link to AllCrypt.
Just wanted to pop in and say thanks for the support.
Not sure why we bother supporting coins when they cant be bothered to support us. Keep advertising for the "better" exchanges though. They treat you so well.
FYI: It's been on AllCrypt for over 6 weeks now. We posted when we added you on May 28th. Keep on kickin ass.
