When was FST added to the exchange AllCrypt?
I'm pretty sure it was there at launch 9 months ago. |

FST daemon died today (and continues to die on restart attempt) with: Assertion failed: (internal_key.size() >=  , function ExtractUserKey, file ./db/dbformat.h, line 99.dbformat.h seems to be a leveldb file. I use several other coins which include leveldb, but have never seen this error before. I really hope there's a simple fix, because Fastcoin took nearly 2 days to sync the first time... and that was WITH the bootstrap! This is a known bug since the early versions of bitcoin. Generally caused by an improper shutdown or diskspace/ram issues. The solution is to run the daemon with the -reindex command line parameter. Source: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/2664Also, if it's taking you that long to sync, then you may have compiled your daemon without the proper libdb version files, or again run the daemon using -reindex. |

I can spread the word and raise the stakes a bit to 5.0 BTE.

Any Bytecoin nodes still active?
Bytecoin Nodes: addnode=63.170.87.173 addnode=85.25.196.115 addnode=109.228.152.204 addnode=144.76.91.109 addnode=188.138.106.140 addnode=192.99.13.126 I try to keep an active and updated altcoin node list on pastebin. http://pastebin.com/tHECiitx |

yeah well, i put one x3 on the p2p and one x3 on a regular pool for 30days, the regular pool with, actually a higher fee, gave me about 10% better return, maybe i chose a bad p2p?? I just felt like they were stealing 10% of my hash..
You could setup your own node P2Pool node and mine locally on it. P2P cannot "steal" your hash. You should do some reading on the way P2Pool works before assuming something that isn't possible. |

I have tried it a few times and I make less coin..
Are you taking into account the P2Pool variance? If your miner is properly configured and your latency is comparable to the other miners on P2Pool, you should have more income on P2Pool than on any other pool. In fact you should expect as much, if not more income as you would mining solo on a centralized pool with reduced variance. Another thing to point out is not having to deal with fee's to withdraw your coins into your wallet. You also eliminate the chance of your coins being stolen from the pool's storage. This alone might make up for what you say about making less coins using P2Pool. Again, overtime and because of variance, the payouts are still about the same. Some days you make more, some days you make less. "P2Pool blocks are quickly broadcast to the network through all of the nodes used by the whole P2Pool network. If another pool finds a block at the same time than P2Pool, it probably is at a disadvantage: that's more income for P2Pool on average."

Watch out for mastermining.net FST pool. They charge a 10.99 FST "transaction fee" for any auto-payouts, and 19.99 FST for any on-demand payouts.
So, unless you're withdrawing 1000 FST at a time, fees on this pool can range from > 100% to N%.
Definitely beware.
yeah, basically if you go max on autopay they are a 2% fee pool... do you know a better one? I have had a hard time finding a FST pool that is up or stays alive for less than the 2% and most P2P just seem to steal hash i better add too that the mastermining admin actually emails you back when there are any issues, and fast... lots of pools just leave you hanging and/or loosing.. that's worth something! Why not try using P2Pool instead? It's decentralized and payouts go directly into your wallet. |

Correction, that coin has a one minute block spacing, and it is also Proof of Stake, which is inherently flawed compared to Proof of Work, if you were to look further into PoS, and were really serious about investing in cryptocurrency, you should know this.  "If cryptocurrencies ever get near supermarket checkouts, I think it’s very unlikely that people will be doing actual blockchain transactions right at the checkout. Are fast transaction times at Proof of Sale terminals the only advantage of a fast cryptocurrency? What about transactions where ordinary folks like you and I choose to transact, especially when the value of the product/service bought, sold or traded is very time-sensitive? In terms of supermarket checkouts, logic dictates that actual block chain transactions could be done right at the checkout if you’re dealing with a fast cryptocurrency. E.g. transactions in FastCoin (FST) can be completed within 48 seconds! Now even if the only benefit of fast cryptocurrencies was to reduce the transaction time at Proof of Sale, wouldn’t you say that is an excellent benefit on its own, especially when security is not compromised? Yet, Pete and others wish to claim that “there’s very little advantage in pushing transaction times for “cryptos” below the level of a few minutes because they’re not going to be manifesting themselves at the point of sale anyway.” Source: http://cryptocoinupdates.com/info/cryptocurrencies-does-fast-transaction-time-matters/ |

It appears as though the chain has split, possibly an attempt to fork the chain awhile back. From what I've gathered there are currently two chains, the original legit chain from which I created the bootstrap.dat file from back in April now has 54288 blocks. The other (bad) chain has well over 584426 blocks. A look at getpeerinfo reveals clients that have mixed subversions, all of which also have the starting height around 584426 blocks. /DGC:2.0.0/
/WorldcoinFoundation:0.8.6.2/
/42:0.7.0/
/MemeCoin:2.2.0/ There are currently only a handfull clients, one of which is the block explorer that has the correct starting height and is also on the (correct) client version. To stop your client from connecting to these rogue peers and seeing your wallet get out of sync, you need to edit your royalcoin.conf file and connect directly to the good peers. Using connect instead of addnode will prevent the other peers from connecting. connect=50.128.154.237
connect=63.170.87.173
connect=70.164.233.141
connect=70.164.233.143
connect=173.238.180.157
connect=204.11.237.73
connect=108.172.121.86
These have the correct starting height at around 54294. This is only a temporary fix until the client is updated. |

 Attention Fastcoin community, faithful pool operators and dedicated miners. We are still seeing about 1/3rd of Fastcoin's clients on 0.8.5.3. The notification you see in your client about updating to 0.8.7.2 will be removed on Sunday, September 14th. Please make sure to update your clients by the end of the week. If you have already updated to 0.8.7.2, you can ignore the notification as it is set to expire on the 14th. Download the updated version (Fastcoin-0.8.7.2) from Sourceforge. https://sourceforge.net/projects/fastcoin/Also, be sure to check out the P2Pool configuration that's been merged into forrestv's master branch. https://github.com/forrestv/p2pool/blob/master/p2pool/networks/fastcoin.pyP2Pool Block announcements are made in #p2pool-fst on freenode, you can also join the community support and chat in #fastcoin. |

What is the deal with all the orphan blocks when mining this coin. I know some people are getting frustrated and have moved on. What is the reason for all the orphans, sometimes 50%.
You're probably not properly configuring your miner for optimum results, your latency also has a lot to do with it depending on which pool you're mining. Perhaps you should try setting up your own p2pool node to mine on, and change your miner settings to reflect: Queue=0 Scantime=1 Expiry=2 I'm getting 0.8% rejects with an overall DOA of 3%. Which is pretty dang good, I'm also using the updated client. http://fst.thecomputerfield.com:5150/static/ |

you must have rusty pipes, my connection is crappy wireless not much better than 4g...
Rusty only on Fastcoin it seems. No such slowness syncing wallets for Bitcoin, Franko, etc etc. edit:
ISOLATED the issue, it's the 0.8.7.1 wallet. Sync slows down to a crawl after a few minutes.
Went back to 0.8.5.3 wallet listed in this thread, and chain sync stays fast even after 5 connections+. Sync now almost through the beginning of June 2014. edit: sync finally done with 0.8.5.3 wallet. Thanks for pointing this out, please see the patch below for 0.8.7.1. https://github.com/fastcoinproject/fastcoin/commit/f6116e16410569ba2ddd9b16407a0e8b3b2093b8 |
