re 15 minutes: hmmm.. have you tried the version I mentioned or do you still use some of the previous versions?
re compressing: if by "compressing" you mean "skipping blocks" then no, wallet needs them all to rebuild chain on its own. You can however try to zip datadir (without wallet, logs and config files) and provide that to skip initial reindexing but I'm not 100% sure if that would actually work when you move it from one system to another.
The version I am using is the last one you worked on I believe, the one that was created around the time the blockchain got stuck. Well, I can already hardly remember what it was and even when that happened  But I believe it was "2.1.2 critical bugfix". Check version number in Help -> Debug window, mine says v2.1.3.0 guess im a version behind, i have v2.1.2.0 lol my bad switched to the latest version, now im stuck waiting to sync again, but its ok i guess, lol Also updated the link on the Op to point directly at the releases page instead of a specific version. Think I'm having an issue here and missing some coins, not sure if they just haven't caught up to the transaction of when i sent them to my wallet or what, their still showing on the blockchain but im gonna use the 2.1.2 wallet until your able to respond man. |

Hey guys. Just wanted to stop by with a quick update. As some of you may know I have partnered with some real good people and we have developed www.gamebet.ggIts an online platform where you can wager on eSports using cryptos and Steam items. In the future it will have a full casino and sports betting as well. I have been in talks with KA and my team and we have decided to support C2 in a future update which is expected to happen in about 3-4 weeks. You'll be able to deposit C2 and withdrawal your winnings in C2 as well. Our plan is to keep expanding our site and partnerships and we hope we'll be able to shine a much needed light on C2 GameBet and GameBet coin. For more information about our project please visit our thread. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1410287.0Thanks man, looking forward to it, its good to see a useful service Coin2 can be used with |

What happens when someone clones the idea and offers investers higher % and goes transparent concerning their real id?
Need to know the real people behind this and either have higher % or value venture at 250k atm
Our real id's can not be known due to the legality of running an online gambling business. If you cant get passed that fact then this project may not be for you. We have however been listening to the concerns of the community so far regarding the valuation of the business and what we are looking to raise. We hope to have some more about that discussion for you a little later tonight once we finish discussing different ideas internally. We thank you for your patience on this matter. As long as they make good on their promises and things promised happen, there is no need to know their identities. Anyways I represent Coin2, as you know DailyModo, and you have the support of Coin2 and our community. I hope to see C2 as a betting option soon as well. Wat is the best exchange to buy C2 on? is it polo for most volume? Yes polo is the best atm, but the only option is for polo or bter. I figured so much. Thanks for your reply, I will be buying some this week! C2 is new to me and I have been buying all the game and gaming coins lately but i dont own any C2. My portfoolio is feeling like its missing something. I own a lot of hyper, digibits and soon i'll own gambetcoin and C2. Do you know of any other game related coins I can look at? Hyper and Coin2 are actually business partners at the moment. But I think Gamepieces would be another for your portfolio, I don't have any links to it though or a clue of where to exchange for it, but if I had to guess it would be on bittrex. |

Ok as far as the talks with DailyModo go about including Coin2 as a betting option, C2 is set to be included. Should give everyone something to do with their coins other than trade at the moment.
Also in other news, ChadCrypto has decided to make a game as well other than Coin Quest: The Dark Stakes... I have been doing models most of the day for him to use in it. As far as details go, there is no working title yet, he has asked me not to tell the concept just yet, but I can say its being made in Unreal Engine. It will also be unique in a way, the games concept has never been done before and it is based on conspiracy. I will leave it to him in the future to give further details.

Coin2 wallet is based on a quite old POS software. POS wallet's in general have waaaay more transactions (10Ks and more) because of staking and bitcoin data structures just was not designed for that so POS wallets are usually reeeally slow if you are staking (and you have to to secure network). Next problem is low block time - you have a huge data of 1GB+ which is mostly useless because of empty blocks (most of them have only coinbase tx which is generating new coins) but you need to scan through it almost all the time. And finally wallet devs don't fork it properly so it's really hard to keep it up to date with some bitcoin improvements in that field - it simply zillion hours of work to do. Another problem for Coin2 and alike is that to protect coin from bashing by bitcoiners it uses scrypt instead of sha256 which is waaay slower (it was designed to be so) and block verification takes a lot more resources. I tried to analyze the most critical performance parts back in 2015 and made some changes, see https://github.com/UdjinM6/Coin2.1/releases - it has both mac and windows binaries. But that's basically it. I can't do anything with block time or hash algo without hardfork. And even if we forked it won't give too much benefits because history is already there and you can't just throw it away, you'll have to verify it once you install new wallet somewhere. If you want a fast working wallet you need to reconsider a lot starting from blockchain properties and ending with what wallet to fork from for a new blockchain. Well this should be something that if it is needed the community should vote on, I agree with most that it takes forever to open the wallet, but it does work. Maybe a different route could work, an algorithm to compress old block data but something that the wallet could read still.. not sure. I haven't really messed with actual code for almost 9 years, and even then it was just plain old C Language, kinda not sure what all better functions C++ has to offer, I just know they are similar. Or an updated wallet(for users only) that grabs the latest transaction, goes back about 100k blocks and loads the data from there. Keeping the main wallet for the block explorer and anything else that needs the complete chain history. Actually using my recommendations (grab latest release and move your wallet every 10K transactions to a new one) solves problem more or less for current users. Here's a little test: 03/24/16 19:34:34 Coin2.1 version v2.1.3.0 (2015-10-28 10:05:11 +0300) <---- start
....
03/24/16 19:35:21 Loading index, loaded 960000 blocks
03/24/16 19:35:28 LoadBlockIndex(): hashBestChain=e6fd97de55d6e3ff6405 height=964277 trust=2099217867472243 date=03/18/16 18:45:26
03/24/16 19:35:28 LoadBlockIndex(): synchronized checkpoint 000005510a96f9c91fc4767e9fbb0c295abca7ff25d8dd286b3dba3a5975f374 <---- all blocks loaded
....
03/24/16 19:35:35 Done loading <----GUI appeared So it's ~1 minute to start GUI on my old 2010 mac which I think is fine comparing to other POS coins. As for "goes back about 100k blocks and loads the data from there" - this means you have no block chain anymore which makes everything else useless - it brakes most of the data structures, logic etc.. and you won't be able to stake of course. Even if it was smth like pruning which was implemented in Bitcoin Core recently you still would need to download every block to build utxo db. What you just described is closer to a kind of SPV wallet and in this case I think it should be easier to find some implementations of SPV for other coins rather than trying to fit this model into current one (i.e. like you described - current one is for services/staking, SPV - for "normal" users who just want to have ability to send/receive coins). And then maybe find someone who is ok with the code for SPV.  But again, if "normal" user will open wallet sometimes to keep blocks up to date - wallet slowness shouldn't be a problem for him. Me personally I only find the wallet opening issue to be a problem when I have to send coins to someone to pay them, lol. Currently though it takes almost 15 minutes for mine to open, not sure if it has something to do with the amount of coins stored in it or what. I'm also glad you explained this out, I have no idea how the wallet actually works beyond its GUI interface. So compressing downloaded block data that could still be readable by the wallet is out too then? |

Coin 2 could really do with swapping to pos3 or posa. To encourage staking and security. An ROI gaming venture is needed with full plan and ledger. People invest in the development, they get a return in some way. I suspect many many people have left crypto since coin2 was given out so I would imagine many coin 2 are lost now. It would not take much interest in coin2 in terms of btc to really set if off again. I see hyper are talking about this new gaming site and possible collaboration. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1410287.new#newAnything we can think up to join in with this? Since Dailymodo is one of us in this community, I will open a discussion with him about allowing coin2 to be used there as he knows as well as I do that we need something like this to keep interest up. Others should pm him as well. A gambling platform would be a good thing for others to come have a look at what Coin2 is about. |

I haven't posted anything because I don't want to sound like a broken record..  Making c2 mineable isn't a good idea in my opinion. If anything, we should do something like the buy back program using mining to destroy a boat load of c2. I'm not too keen on mining other coins to destroy their market, when I think just mining BTC, and using that would suffice. My main concern has been the same for quite a while now... We need a faster loading wallet that is more operating system friendly.. (I'd leave my c2 wallet open 24/7 on my pi2) This could encourage others to have a wallet staking 24/7 as well, providing more nodes to sync up to. Last time I opened my Windows wallet and waited 10 min., I had one peer connection. I just gotta learn how to code! I need to grab the address for the Burn wallet I made back last year for us to destroy coins with, that should be a bit helpful there. As far as the wallet goes I've mentioned it to UdjinM6 that it seems a tad bit slow to load. Idk how much he could do for the windows version as he has a mac, but we will figure something out. HyperFuture might have a programmer or 2 he could have take a look, I will have to ask him. As far as things go though now I want the community to have more of a say in what goes on, it shouldn't be left to a handful of people as its hindering the growth of the coin. |

Well I have my coins staking now, wallet is open constantly, its nice. Quick question though: Why is everyone so quiet?
whats up king. as far as making it mineable and forking, i dont think that would be wise. if we can find some java programmers id rather have them work on chain of conflict and give you some much needed help. and as far as doing some side work and getting paid in c, i dont know how many game programmers would be holding c2 to pay you right now but again i would rather steer them towards our ecosystem and pay them in c2 to build the community/game devs here. my two cents for the day. Well the FPS is mostly done in C#, the java programmer was something I would need to handle the bitquest server to convert it to C2. I have a small interest in playing Minecraft and have focused the Coin2Gaming channel on it for now as it would be a source of funding and is one of the most searched for topics on the entire internet, heck I have even looked stuff up on it myself occasionally, lol. The goals behind that would be: *Have our own MC Server that has constant exposure on Youtube. *Have it paying out in Coin2 *It will expose new people into the community and to Coin2 *Keep the server public so new people can join while I do live streams. *New viewers would be likely to join just to be in the videos. *Every 250 views pays out like $0.15, doesn't take long to achieve this. Plus everyone has a good time while Coin2 is being exposed. It seems all win-win |

is hyper the best coin for gaming?
It depends on exactly what you mean by that - but there are certainly a lot of exciting projects in the pipeline. I can definitely see it becoming the most important crypto used in online gaming over the next couple of years. It's a great coin for gaming. To be a wise investor if you invest in one game coin you should invest a little in all of them. Then all you need is one to take off and fly and you'll be paid. I been buying a lot of dgb and hyper over the last few months. Do you know of any other cool game coins? I know this is HYPERs thread, but Coin2 is also another gaming coin, were kinda moving a little slow though because all our eggs our in one basket atm. We are working on a FPS game called Chain of Conflict(I am sorta the lead dev on this game), C2 will be the main currency of the game, but it will also accept HYPER and BTC. You can check it out by clicking the Coin2 in my signature or by going to the Chain of Conflict thread(hasn't been updated in a few months, but has the latest demo. Also If anyone wants to help me out on this game, whether it be programming or animation or modeling, please pm me. Chain of Conflict Thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1220646.new#new |
