Not bad man. We need something like that for MWC and ECC too. I think it's not a bad idea to be honest.
Anyone wants to launch a similar PR thread?

Thanks for you support!  PR is always needed!  I am just trying to spread to this knowledge to the rest of the Cryptocurrency world!

Was the IRC code changed or removed between versions?


 

no, irc is a fallback method anyway....

no, irc is a fallback method anyway....

Reason , I mentioned it is most windows users never set their firewall to allow the wallet software thru the firewall, so it randomly blocks it, thereby decreasing the amount of available peers. IRC code lets them bypass that issue slightly to get more peers, which is why the coins that have removed the irc code have lousy peer connections, if their firewall were not opened for that wallet ports.

FYI:
Your ECC wallets peers was only ~3 peers , until I allowed it thru the windows firewall , then that # went much higher. 
Also it has a sticking issue, upon closing the wallet it stays under the process windows for quite some time before closing.
I use Task manager to close the process , if it stays active.

When you're available please take a look at this Griffith thanks.

ok thank you, i had a feeling it was firewall stuff. will see if there is a way to fix that in code.

Does developing three coins is a good idea? A single currency with good development would be better

Does developing three coins is a good idea? A single currency with good development would be better

possible reasons why the 4.0 wallet wont connect with as many peers as 3.1

-boost lib dep changed
-open ssl updated and a security issue causes less cons
-change with UPNP config which is a huge security issue anyway.


besides these three things there weren't any communication protocol changes / differences between the two wallets. im going to say the boost update has 0 reasons for it. the open ssl might actually leave issues open since the versions are both very old. the upnp config might have also had something to do with it. i noticed i had fixed something with it a while back but never compiled a new wallet as i didnt think it was that big of an issue. it might just be that big of an issue and i will recompile a new wallet tonight with the UPNP changes and test the config file that is posted.


if it is the UPNP config, then something needs to be addresses because someone found a larger security issue with UPNP in bitcoin a while back and those vulnerabilities might affect all of the coins here. i will be looking into the UPNP fix bitcoin did but if anyone has any additional information on that please let me know.

i will also be checking possible port collisions with popular software since i believe supercoin uses a IANA controlled registered port (will have to double check that though)
supercoin does not have any conflicting ports with other popular registered software


edit: if anyone has any desired features for supercoin. please feel free to request

i am currently removing all the debug statements that spam the debug logs for the cryptobank application, once i get them all removed so all my extra things arent there and the wallet doesnt make 200 MB txt files after an hour i will post an update link. so probably tonight. you can send and recieve coins for all coin types fine, the only thing i am missing is that it doesnt prompt you for the fee when sending coins or tell you they couldnt be sent if you try to send more than you have. so i will need to add that. also i need to clean up the gui a bit because there is a lot of left over stuff atm. also there is no way to send to multiple people at the same time. so will add those things in.

i have finished the actual wallet code development itself. only making the gui show more information and adding features is left.

[dirtyboots77]

Are there any pics of the gui to get a feels for what it roughly looks like?

to be honest right now it desnt look too much different from the checkpoint alpha in the op. i decided to delay until tomorrow so i can put in one more key feature before i start having people actually download it and start promoting it. also want to fix the gui up a bit cuz its complete shit right now

[Griffith]

i am home and time to get some stuff done

[Griffith]

i would also like to lol@ the fact that someone took cryptobank.com sometime between now and 48 hours ago

[Sjacmur]

If you wanted this domen why you not buy it before and now you can told only "lol."
And its popular combination words crypto + bank. Someone like your "cryptobank" words and took it first.
I saw before old www site with 3 coins I dont know you want make other new site with new name.com

Good to see MWC rising again on Bittrex!

https://bittrex.com/Market/Index?MarketName=BTC-MWC

If anyone has serious interest then I will handover the MWC Twitter.  PM me please.
Further if anyone wants to buy 1mill+  MWC for a good price,  please let me know. I have at the moment less time for crypto world. If nobody want the coins then I will just hold them until the price is up again.

Cheers

[dirtyboots77]

I can take the Twitter if you want to on me the info.
