Now i have 1 connection. I guess we need more active nodes  yeah, the network needs more 24/7 active nodes right now. the count is a little low A white book and future plans are needed to promote the Chinese market..
i will write something on it soon. UPDATE: code upgrades are just about done. so new wallet will be coming out soon. just have to run a few more tests and fix 2 minor gui issues that were reported to me the other day (sometimes coins dont show up and a rescan is needed, sometimes transactions are marked as conflicted when they arent actually conflicted, no button to backup wallet from gui). once i implement these fixes the new wallet should be out that will be compatible with the new node types Those are great news Does a wallet being permanently online helps the network? Any plans to make an android wallet? That would be a good step towards real world usage, as more people could start use it to make payments on the move Being added to a service like coinpayments or getting associated with a card would be a really good move Speaking about real world usage, i guess it should be also the main goal of the coin, as it creates good value. Also i think community should be more active, giving some contribute, instead of just waiting for coin to get more value and sell it for a profit in exchange. From what i see it has been a 1 man development, but i'm sure that there are many coin holders that can help in some way. Also Bleutrade markets should be removed from the ann 1st post. They removed us from there, we should remove them from here  Leaving the wallet online does help the network. Not only will you stake more often but you will be a node that other nodes can connect to. the main goal of the coin is real world usage. we are gearing up to have actual use for large web services and will be looking into an android wallet later since most of us have tasks to do at the moment. thanks for the reminder. i removed bleutrade from the OP. There are actually 4 people on the team. Im just leading development. although, anyone is free to make a push request and i will review it. Just bought a good stack on coinexchange, cheap enough! Following this project from now on, is the wallet on first page good? Fully working or is there some new release gonna come?
There will be a new wallet within the next few days hopefully. There were a lot of network upgrades recently. i just need to sort out some of the utility functions and test for different node types to check that when a storage node is found, the wallets correctly detect that it is a storage node. And then need to test that they are paid properly. |

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Try this nodes in conf file. They are working for me. addnode=www.cryptounited.io addnode=74.208.133.18 addnode=82.176.15.155 addnode=66.66.243.140 addnode=223.134.231.97 addnode=46.4.64.68 addnode=72.209.45.11 addnode=85.236.188.28 addnode=121.75.108.168 Also i suggest for you to keep a separate copy of database, metachain, txleveldb folders and .lock, blk0001.dat files. (wallet.dat is a good idea to keep too) That way when if wallet crashes, you use those files i wrote before, instead of sync from 0.  Griffith will get us a better wallet in a few days, i believe |

For some reason I got this: I won't be happy while syncing it from the scratch Is there a snapshot or bootstrap available? Hi Anotherlateminer. I had several times same error. It's a known issue for Griffith. When we close wallet it does not save blockchain well, so you must delete the folders and files i wrote in previous post (database, metachain, txleveldb folders and .lock, blk0001.dat files.) and start with fresh wallet. I'm pretty sure you know you must have a safety copy from your wallet.dat file. Try this snapshot from Kiklo and see if it works. I always have a separate copy of my latest working blockchain in my computer for when that happens, and if that one from Kiklo doesnt work for you i may try to upload mine and let link here. Let me know if it worked. By the way, maybe a "noob" question, but why does sync from scratch takes so much time? Couldn't the wallet simply download the blockchain from a reliable source and start working from that point? Afterall is 1.5 Gb of data (uncompressed - in a zip would be even less), should not take so much time to download... |

Syncing from scratch is slow because your client needs to download all the existing blocks and also verify every single transaction. |

Today my wallet crashed again. I was Encrypting it, and after putting password it closed. When trying to open wallet again, it crashed. Sent all the files to replace, from pendrive, but also put wallet.dat without realizing (wallet.dat file pryor to encryption) Now it works but is not encrypted. Wasn't supposed that that file would not work or asked for password? (I think i did read that while encrypting wallet) In regards to staking, is it the same having one big transaction or several smaller? (with total value being the same) Glad that you sorted your problem, Anotherlateminer |

Any update about the new wallet, Griffith? Not putting pressure on you, but must admit i'm a bit anxious to get the new wallet, as this one bugs a bit... Once you have the method and conditions (copy of good blockchain and other files) is quite easy and fast to solve, but prefer not having to worry about it. Other thing: Is Blockexplorer stopped? Last transactions i see there are from 6 days ago. Also have one pretty interesting - Was sent in 1970-01-01 01:00:00  So i received ECC before i was born! And website still showing offline for me. Anyone can reach cryptounited.io? |

I am still running version ECCoin:2.4.7.5 on MAC. This version is without any problems for me until now. The main reason that I didn't go to ECCoin:2.4.7.7 is simply because it was not possible to compile this version, it is giving to many errors and I am not able to resolve those ( I am not a coder ). If Griffith wants he can try himself on my computer (teamviewer) to resolve those problems. He will then have a mac wallet available for distribution. |

Hi everyone.
sorry about going quiet for a few days. I started my new job at intuit and my laptop broke during travel so i had to buy a new one which i just got today. Someone posted earlier about the website being down... there was scheduled maintenance on the power grid in the town that the servers are running in. i was told that power to everything would be restored by the end of today so the site and such will be back up tomorrow.
I need to restore all of my development virtual machines and stuff tonight from the backups i have and while thats running will go back through the posts on the thread that i missed and answer any questions as well as answer any PMs that i havent yet responded too.

I knew you would not abandon us Any news on new wallet? Anyway, i already have a lot of practice restoring mine and right now is just a matter of minutes to recover everything. I always keep a recent copy of blockchain near |

We will be working towards that after the next wallet update yes. Thanks for the link, syncing now.
Syncing from scratch is slow because your client needs to download all the existing blocks and also verify every single transaction.
I will be stealing the "assumed valid blocks" code from bitcoin so that you dont actually have to do all of this anymore. it makes syncing a bunch faster and adds 0 additional security risks Today my wallet crashed again. I was Encrypting it, and after putting password it closed. When trying to open wallet again, it crashed. Sent all the files to replace, from pendrive, but also put wallet.dat without realizing (wallet.dat file pryor to encryption) Now it works but is not encrypted. Wasn't supposed that that file would not work or asked for password? (I think i did read that while encrypting wallet) In regards to staking, is it the same having one big transaction or several smaller? (with total value being the same) Glad that you sorted your problem, Anotherlateminer yeah. there are a few GUI only bugs out there. If you encrypt a wallet.dat then it only encrypts that copy of the wallet.dat file. so if you have backups they will contain the same keys with no encryption. Best practice is to backup the wallet.dat. encrypt it. test it to make sure it works as expected. then delete the unencrypted backups and back up the new encrypted wallet.dat file. It is better to stake with several smaller transactions. You will get selected as your coins to stake more often. rewards will be the same for staking several smaller as they would be for one larger (proportionally % the same) -Griffith |

pushed a bunch of code changes to the dev branch tonight. GUI has bugs that need to be fixed but the actual coin code for the new upgrade works pretty well so far.
im actually considering deleting the GUI code from the ECC repo all together with this next upgrade and migrating it to a new repo for just GUI code that communicates with the wallet which would always be running as a daemon. This would also mean the coin would be moving towards having an installer rather than just downloading the new executable to run locally.
This would take a lot of work code wise and probably quite a few days so im unsure if i will be proceeding with that this update or put it off.
