Buttman's Analcoin | SHA256 | 150K POW | 125% Annual POS | Launched

[gimpanzee]

Windows Binaries for the fork can be found here: https://github.com/presstab/analcoin/releases/tag/v1.1

If you are having a hard time finding nodes after the fork, find some @ https://chainz.cryptoid.info/anal/#!network and make sure they are on protocol 60020

I am sure billotronic will try his hand at the mac binaries soon. I will create a pull request to the new official repo https://github.com/buttoshianamoto/analcoin-1

Great work PressTab and thank you for working with and supporting Analcoin.

I have messaged CryptoID / Chainz with the link to the updated source, I have also emailed Yobit with the link to the new source for the hard fork.

Once Billotronic has cooked up our Mac wallet then we will be ready to go.

I will email Analcoin to see if he will hard fork his nodes if there are any more on the network, hopefully will get a reply, I never received a reply from my last email.

CryptoID hosting are paid up until March 2016 I believe so there should be little running costs up to then.

Also Mr Secretive is going to cook us up a PI wallet soon as well for additional extra analicious specialism!

Let's take this to phase 2 guys! Can someone post up their conf file once the switch has occurred so we can all get on the same fork, also a list of "dead nodes" e.g. old fork ip addresses might be useful as a log.

Is there anything else, presume the switch will occur at 00:01 on 21st April 2015 automatically. Exciting!!!!

[gimpanzee]

yeah yeah yeah I'm working on it .... some of us do have to work at our day jobs (every now and then! lol)

lol that just came up while I was posting. I lolled quite a bit!

Would be funny if Analcoin started to be accepted as the digital currency of choice for sewage companies ROFL!

Tempted to put another photo here but that would mean three accounts would be banned! Oh well here goes.

It's relevant and a one off post mr mprep sir :p

Analcoin, this shit is good shit!

[gimpanzee]

So the switch will be at 00.01  on the 21st?  Thats in a few hours?  What timezone is it?

I'm excited also!

Not sure, need to let PressTab answer that (prob UK time? That would mean in 4.75 hours?)

So excited I could almost buy some Bitcoin, and then buy some more Analcoin with it! lol

[gimpanzee]

PressTab do I need to put a redirector for a subdomain seed.analcoin.co.uk to the ip address listed in the "seed" section of the fork repo?

[billotronic]

first time cooking it went a little weird so I am recooking right now. Should be done within an hour

[gimpanzee]

OK, Once again I have messaged AnaLCoin (the creator of the previous Analcoin thread and founder of Analcoin) for support in the fork. I have copied it below for reference. Please note that AnaLCoin did not respond to my previous communication, there may be a good reason for that, however this will be my final communication if we do not receive a response within the next 7 days.

--------------------------------------------------------
Hello

We have now successfully updated the wallet source to v1.1 the final commit is available at the link below.

https://github.com/presstab/analcoin/releases/tag/v1.1

We have contacted CryptoID who have agreed to move to the new fork ahead of tomorrows hard fork date.
We have contacted Yobit who have agreed to move to the new fork ahead of tomorrows hard fork date.

We have made the new windows wallet available direct from the custom website as well bundled with all DLLs.

It would appreciated if;

- you could update any other seed nodes with the new source ahead of tomorrows hard fork date
- join us in the next stage of advancing Analcoin, we are all pretty excited about it, its a team thing so please join in

Next Stage

The next stage we are looking to get Android, iOS wallets done, tablet and mobile, plus start on delivering viral content, so we need all the help and support we can get, of course you started the ball rolling.

If you do not want to be involved any more then that is understandable, but please get in touch and let us know what you are thinking at this stage.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Regards

Buttoshi
--------------------------------------

I think that's fair given the circumstances, and hopefully if all goes smoothly it looks like our mining investment for what was a low demand coin at the start could pay dividends in the long term, still lots of work to do but congratulations to everyone involved, this marks a significant step and date in the history of Analcoin.

Thanks to everyone for the contribution so far and fingers crossed for a smooth transition tomorrow.

I knew you were Gordon Ramsey all along Billotronic, you are a Michelin Star Cook!

Pull request received and committed.

The node at CryptoID / Chainz has been updated with the new source ready for the hard fork tomorrow

Node is 37.187.245.222

I have added a conf file in my analcoin directory as follows;

rpcuser = user
rpcpassword = password
rpcallowip = 127.0.0.1
rpcport = 32119
port = 32118
server = 1
daemon = 1
listen = 1
addnode =37.187.245.222
addnode=94.156.230.246
addnode=95.145.103.84

Not sure whether that is correct, anyone want to add anything to that or advise of any correct parameters.

If you go to https://chainz.cryptoid.info/anal/#!network you can see the nodelist for the wallet version 1.1.0 that's the fork we are on, you can check this regularly as people move to the fork.

Anyone know what time the switch will be done / time zone so we can look out for it? Thanks.

I'm not sure when the fork is...

Code:

static const unsigned int FORK_TIME = 1429659000; // forking on Tue, 21 Apr 2015 23:30:00 GMT

lol I really couldn't be "ARSED" to look lol

Tomorrow night at 11.30 PM UK/GMT time then. Thank you for that, so everyone has plenty of time to get the new wallet before having a damn good hard anal fork.

Oh suits you sir. Oh!

Grab a beer and pucker up for the anal split

[billotronic]

might be a good idea to put addnodes in the op

you can also put this ip down :: 98.213.214.114

and I 'should' have another ready before the fork.

This coin gets my vote for Best Coin Name.

ROFL

Step 1: Read thread.
Step 2: Run that again after 23:30 GMT tonight.

If your answer is the same then as now then we can become concerned.

Code:

if(nTime > FORK_TIME)
		nSubsidy = nCoinAge * COIN_YEAR_REWARD_2 / 365;

Code:

static const int64_t COIN_YEAR_REWARD_2 = 125 * CENT; // fork to 125% annual interest
static const unsigned int FORK_TIME = 1429659000; // forking on Tue, 21 Apr 2015 23:30:00 GMT

Got it-- I was 24 hours off.

[presstab]

Since I have been around the block a few times, I will let you guys know what I expect for this fork:

I expect there to be a general shortage of stakable blocks after the first tidal wave of stakes hit after the fork. The difficulty will probably raise because of all the blocks have a lot of weight. At a 60 second block time there are 1440 stakes per day, and it takes one day for them to be eligible to stake. This might not happen, but there is a good chance it does. It wouldnt be a bad idea to stake a few blocks, and then reserve the rest of your blocks for later in case the network runs low on stakable blocks. Locking your wallet is enough to stop staking.

Other than that, things should hopefully be smooth. Its possible that a few chains are created after the fork but I don't expect this to be a problem. I will come out with an updated wallet client in a day or two with the fork checkpointed.

It might be good for people to take lets say 1/3 of their coins and send them in 10-20 coin chunks around to a second address which can start maturing for tomorrow. The chain will be ticking over manually until later today. This should actually have been done yesterday.

What do you think presstab?
