Looking for any Australians having issues actually being able to use a physical Wirex card within Australia without it being declined all the time. So far I think I have tried to make a purchase on every single banks EFT machine that is available to me and declined every single time. Can't even add the card to PayPal as the authorization transaction is declined as well...PayPal basically say it would work if the transaction was authorized.
So far Wirex email support has been extremely unhelpful and no idea what else to try.
If that is the case it seems their card is not backed by any major operator, thus is not recognized by standard banking systems. What type of card they are issuing anyway? I tried to search for the card type on thir site but I couldn't find anything about it (apart from nondescript image of a card without a logo). The physical card being issued is sporting a Mastercard logo and the issuer is stated as being Wave Crest Holdings Limited. Conveniently I was able to add my card to PayPal about a week after making that post and it has been working flawlessly since so I'm happy at the moment. Not being able use it within Australia has probably been put in the too hard basket  .

I have spoke with Crysx. We have agreed that ~8 hours from the time of this post (which would be 4 am EST) will be the tentative time of the "big bang". I say tentative only because if some issue should arise we may need to adjust. That said, there really should be no issue. I have the sequence of events mapped out throughly and all the pieces sitting ready to go. The code will be ready everywhere at that time and, minus the snap shots, it will be as simple as stopping one daemon (v1.2.1) and starting another (v1.3) on all the servers. I realize that the 4 am EST time might be inconvenient for some people. Please understand this is a global project and no matter what time is chosen, it would be an inconvenient time for some.
Of course I will keep you all informed.
Good luck... I'm sure you have fully documented your change control and broken it down into 10min increments while also delegating tasks where appropriate and getting all the relevant signatures to proceed.  Ready and waiting to compile and deploy to my nodes Captain... haha! Many thanks for the chuckles!  Seriously, I have everything waiting. The post with download links in a tab, ready to post. The edited OP in a tab, ready to save. Shells open on all the EGC VPSs, ready to stop 1.2.1, snap shot the blockchain, and start 1.3 concurrently with Crysx and the granite network seednodes. Actually, should be a 2-3 minute operation. I will get on social media and also start contacting the exchanges as soon as I see the network is operating sound, connections are being established, and both PoW and PoS blocks are rolling. These blocks will continue at present rate until the actual target block time hardfork at block 495000 witch should occur in about 36 hours roughly. I greatly appreciate those of you that will be waiting for this time and populating the v1.3 network as soon as possible. Sounds like you are more than prepared which is always a good thing... I'm sure the entire EGC community appreciate all the hard work that both yourself and Crysx have put into this hardfork to maintain a stable and efficient network and it will definitely pay off in the long run...

I forked twice since my last comment and it's clearly not just me.
getblockhash 458553 000000006b5d12bbbd16654648bfa6eb05bbab925b512aac597191920699cb21
Some oddities were observed 14 hours ago, difficulty abruptly jumping from 2 to 12 and then back down, before any forks were reported to be found. This does make me suspect the forks may have been from malicious attempts to attack the EverGreenCoin network. However they may have been caused, I apologize. This block hash you mentioned does concur with all the seednodes and the block explorer. EDIT: Perhaps the many Windows wallets running the v1.1.2 code because the upgrade to v1.2.1 had yet to be made available formed a consensus and pulled other nodes into an incorrect fork. Still seeing some v1.0.0 wallets in my peers list as well which may be causing some issues... 50.33.142.137 66.176.24.142 209.188.18.52 144.76.236.8 Haven't forked again here since the initial fork and compiling the new wallet and re-syncing...

This is for anyone having issues syncing the Ethereum blockchain especially for those finding it extremely slow like I did. After a lot of hassle and giving up on a few occasions due to the slow sync speed I ended up doing a bit of research and found these 2 commands below. Managed to sync in a few hours instead of days by doing this.
Run both from the command line and replace /path/to/my/etherwallet_install/ with where you have the Ethereum wallet installed to.
/path/to/my/etherwallet_install/resources/node/geth removedb (Remove blockchain and state databases)
/path/to/my/etherwallet_install/resources/node/geth --fast (Enables fast syncing through state downloads)
My Ethereum wallet is located on a windows machine so the path for geth may differ on a linux machine it's been a while since a had Ethereum on a linux VM. Basically once geth has downloaded the blockchain and imported up to the lasted block it can be closed and then the Ethereum wallet can be started and it should sync the last few blocks and start up.
Hope this helps a few Trumpians out...
