[ANN] United SciFi Coin [SCIFI] PoW/PoS

[elmo40]

Ya... I was just kidding. 

It is dead.

Last block was in Sep '24.

This is why you don't place high maturity before stake. When only one or two wallets are open and they make a stake, they gotta mature to make another, but there isn't anyone else to move it to make the maturity.

PoS maturity shouldn't be more than 20. Plus, age maturity should be 6hrs or less.

Huh I didn't know that, thanks for the heads-up!

I of course do not like to sit stake on third party hosted machines such as my two servers out on the net, so of course although they are decent anchors for nodes to contact to find other nodes they are no use at all toward keeping pure-staking coins' blockchains moving.

I think my main staking wallets for USF are probably stuck behind an ethernet switch in another house, that keeps jamming up even after replacing it a couple or more times now with brand new switches; someday I will figure out which machine on that switch is jamming it up and isolate that machine or move it to wireless or something meanwhile often when I nip away for a while the switch jams again and all the machines on it are unreachable.

From what you wrote though it seems even when my staking wallet or staking wallets are online it is going to take having other nodes out somewhere staking too to keep it moving.

Maybe I need to risk a minimum stake sized TXOUT at each of the two servers despite thus putting those stakes at risk of pilfering by employees of the hosting company?

Who would pilfer anything? You mean to say you can not lock the machine and still have the wallet running? If Windows, win+L and you are set. Everything in the background still connected and active.

I now have 9 peers!! Yet the chain is still stuck.

I don't remember if it is one of the staking coins in which you have to explicitly tell it to turn on staking after it is up and running and has caught up with the blockchain.

My machine actually staking some of the coins is in another house and the ethernet switch it is on is jammed up so it cannot reach the modem nor be reached via the modem.

Nor from other machines that I still can reach that are on other ethenet switches or directly connected to the modem or on wireless from the modem.

If no one else can locate any of the coins and put them online staking I can check around this house it might have somewhere a backup of a wallet that does have coins.

Seems strange so many folk would have nodes online without coins in them though hmmm...

I do not see any command to 'turn on stake' when I type 'help'.
I have staking=1 in my conf but it isn't even listed in the Command-Line Options window.

This wallet is SOOOO old, it could really use an update.

[markm]

One of the old-time updaters of coins is it seems working through a bunch of them, I know for example they lately updated FairBriX and made some enquiries into the current state of TeneBriX's blockchain provenance so it does not seem unlikely that the so called Sci-Fi coins will come up on the list eventually.

Important however in that kind of regard I suspect is for the communities of the various coins to remember they are all in a co-operative game where working together helps them all, rather than in some kind of cut-throat competitive game where they are all out to cut each other down.

It would not surprise me at all, for example, to learn that several of the old coins have at least some Sci-Fi coin in their "official treasury" from which their own calculated value per coin is calculated just like Sci-Fi coin's own "treasury" contains some of each of several other small coins akin to itself not just big major famous high value coins but forgotten specialty/niche coins like itself.

So the value of all is affected by the value of each and the value of each affected by the value of all...

See http://galaxies.mygamesonline.org/latestrates.inc for "Latest Rates", the latest calculated values...

Maybe also make updating it seem more and more worthwhile by "ratcheting" the spot-market price up and up and up.

I repair SCIFI chain, now you can minting your coins. Remember, max time without new blocks is 48 hours, then blockchain stop again.

[elmo40]

Looks like I lost all peers... anyone connected and up to date? send a couple nodes here for me to connect with.
