I just asked him because he is making a claim without giving the supporting proof. If there is a problem he needs to give the proof so that it can be fixed. If he cannot give the proof then he is just a fudder from the fud group that came into this thread yesterday and his opinion will be discarded as such.

Can you quote the pieces in the code to prove your claim that there is a problem with staking - since you know so much and claim to be someone noteworthy?

Ask someone here for some node addresses or ask the dev.

1) Create a file called graviton.conf in the folder c:\users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\Graviton
2) In the file put the following code:


3) Replace the xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx above with valid IP addresses of valid nodes. You can add as many lines of addnodes above as you want. You then need to save and and re-open your wallet client. The wallet will read in the above file and add those nodes in your connections. Since it is a Windows GUI client and the coin is in POS, the RPC lines are not really necessary and you can actually just add the addnode lines if you want.

The power of fudding in all its glory 

What OS?

It seems that the fudders are doing an excellent job in bringing the price down.

Here is the Raspberry Pi wallet for v1.2.0.0 - only for the headless daemon (command line wallet).

Important:
1) Always backup your wallet.dat first before you do anything
2) The wallet was built on a Raspberry Pi2 (ARM7) running Raspbian Wheezy. It might work on an older Pi but I have not tested it
3) Installation directory where the binaries are installed is ~/opt/graviton or /home/pi/opt/graviton
4) All that is needed is to execute the command below on your Pi in a terminal window and afterwards you need to go to the directory with the wallets and run the daemon (gravitond) with the options you want at the command prompt or in a terminal window
5) An Internet connection is required for the installation
6) A bootstrap.dat is used to fast track the blockchain sync - up to block 24622
7) The bootstrap.dat also works for Windows wallets. For your convenience I have included a direct link below to an untarred bootstrap.dat to make it easy for the Windows users. Windows users just have to copy the bootstrap.dat file into their c\users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\graviton folder and run the Win client again
8.) You need at least an 8GB memory card
9) The installation itself takes about 40-60min on an out-of-the-box Pi
10) You cannot just download the binaries, you have to run the script to get the dependencies as well else it will not run
11) The installation script does not enable the UFW firewall by default. If you want to enable it, uncomment the UFW lines in the script and add the port you want open and run it again or enable it manually by running the UFW commands as in the script with the correct port numbers
12) Remember to confirm the checksums of your files to make sure that they downloaded ok. Execute the commands sha256sum <filename> and md5sum <filename> at the command prompt or in a terminal window in the directory where the file is that you want to check.

Instructions to use the daemon:

1) Since you have an graviton.conf file with the startup settings in it, go to the folder with the binaries ~/opt/graviton and enter ./gravitond in a terminal window to start the server
2) After the blockchain has been imported you can enter the normal wallet commands that you would as in a Windows debug console preceded with ./gravitond
3) Remember to always make a backup of your wallet.dat file before you do anything like encrypting it
4) To encrypt your wallet run the command ./gravitond encryptwallet <yourpassword>
5) To stake with your wallet run the command ./gravitond walletpassphrase <yourpassword> 99999999 true

Let me know about any issues that you may encounter.

To kickstart the installation execute the following command at the command prompt or in a terminal window on your Pi:

Direct links:
Link to installation script
Link to gravitond
Link to bootstrap.dat up to block 24622
Link to bootstrap.dat up to block 24622, untarred for the Win users
Link to checksums.txt

Why would you do a silly thing like that. Have you seen the profitability of the masternodes in the pic above in post 566? You could have run the masternode for a week and made half your stash in week one and then half your stash in week 2-3. That poster went from 25,000 to 28,000 in 1.5 days with tx in that pic alone. Anyways, you had it in your pocket.

Ok thats about 10% then. mmm tough call.

If you roll back the blockchain you will not be setting precedent as the precedent was set with Mintpal. There is no need to save face because of a previous stance on something. A third of a coin base lost is very significant and the market can be crashed by the attacker at any time. There must be generally accepted rules for a rollback eg. a theft of a certain % of coins eg. 30% or more. People cannot afford to lose such large amounts and the interest of the investors need to be placed first. We are not talking about BTC here and there will probably be a couple of roll-backs in future as well on other coins as the crypto-system is enhanced and made more robust. There is also no regulator yet and in future there will probably be such a body at some time that would need to provide approval for such a step. Also, all alts are part of R&D to build and develop the future digital currency and there will be ****ups along the way.

Ask the attacker to give the funds back by a certain time in order for him to get something out to prevent a roll-back, otherwise do go ahead with a roll-back and the attacker gets nothing. Creating a new exchange is not a trivial thing and coupling that with such a complex swopout makes it even easier for mistakes to be made with the setup and security. **** happens in crypto and lessons are learnt.

You can say about Spots what you want and much of it is probably true and much probably not, but he is doing great work regarding research and development on block chains, staking and economics and he should be allowed to continue with his work. Those that contribute to the research and projects get some profit out of it as well which is win-win. Based on the above I would say do plan A as you did and automatic fall-over to plan B if plan A fails by a certain deadline. However if Spots insists to cover the 30k coins it himself then it is up to him.

What specs is suitable for a VPS running a masternode?

Due to there being delayed diff adjustments the asics will have a field day. There will be tons of blocks and tons of rejects. Some blocks will stick but most will not. A large % of the coins might also be mined before proper diff adjustment.

I am not at my machine right now and can do later today, however maybe someone else can post the info quicker?

You dont really for Windows since it is staking only with no solo mining anymore. It is only if you use a headless daemon on Linux that you need the file even you just want to stake. If you want to you can create a file called mastertrader.conf (Win) or MasterTrader.conf (Linux) and put the following in it:

rpcuser=user
rpcpassword=somerandompassword
rpcallowip = 127.0.0.1
rpcport = port of your choosing eg. 14474
server = 1
daemon = 1
listen = 1

All that the above does is to allow you to connect to your wallet from a local PC to do solo mining which is not relevant anymore. Make sure that you have opened up the P2P port for MTR in your firewall or if your firewall has program control, allow mastertrader-qt. Ill check later but I think the P2P port is 14475 that needs to be open in your firewall. Also try turning off and on your router.

What is the block count on this atm?

There are fundamental economics reasons why the other coins went to 1 which have been posted to the nth degree in the respective threads. Those issues have been reduced in Teeth and therefore the chances of going to 1 sat with this one is low. Having said that, dev action /non-action is probably the most important factor in crypto that can make a coin price go up o down. So in that sense anything is possible. But you know Spots he comes up with creative ideas so things will be interesting.

The investor mix in MTR seems to be more long term investors for capital gain and "dividends" than short term pump and dumpers. Everyone has his or her price though and people will be willing to sell when that personal threshold is reached. I think that most of the investors realise the income potential of Toshidesk and therefore the general sentiment is to hold at this point. There are also other initiatives that the management team is working on as far as I understand that will further add value to MTR.

Technically 1 hour

Value of Teeth atm is around 50-70k imo - make it 100k because Spots is involved and he always comes up with surprises. If he can pull a rabbit out of a hat with future plans expect the price to rise. Also expect a brief pump back up to 300k-ish or so when Teeth hits Bittrex. Expect it to stabalize around 100k while it simmers on the expected roadmap.

Excellent work so far with the swap and it is a big ask to have pulled off such a complex task.
