hi team fly!

any bootstrap solutions?

[Griffith]

hi team fly!

any bootstrap solutions?

the blockchain is only 30k blocks long. it shouldnt take more than a few minutes to sync up anyway

[vegasguy]

hi team fly!

any bootstrap solutions?

Yes. Close flywallet. Copy this into your roaming/flycoin folder. Overwrite all files. This will take you to today. 3:00PM PST. with this peers.dat file, Im getting 30 connections. I will update op also.

Thanks for you critiques. I would like to reply:

There are other ways to test a coin besides from the testnet. One could setup a closed environment based on the current block chain or just start the blockchain from zero. For blocking older versions with version.h my answer would be "it depends". My opinion is that you cannot say in general that it would cause high resource consumption. It depends on what you change. For the other things you say I share presstabs thoughts.

Yes there definitely are other ways to test than testnet, and I actually prefer the 'private fork' method, which simulates the actual fork that would occur but just puts it on a private network.

Concerning high resource consumption with invalid peers, that has been my experience with certain forks. Unless you modify the ban rules on the chain, peers can continuously request new blocks from you over and over and your machine will send chunks of the same part of the chain to them over and over. Better to avoid this if possible. For Fly I already modified the code to handle this properly for previous forks, for new forks there would just be a few lines added to the version.h and a few changes to main.cpp. But if nobody is complaining about high resource consumption, I don't see a need to do this right away.

Yes. If 3 very skilled devs have all looked at these comments and say everything is good, then all is well with those areas.

So I just tried to combine some of my inputs to the same address to help in staking, 205 coins in total.
The fee displayed in the wallet for doing so was zero and as soon as I submitted it, I lost 100 in fees to some random address.
I was charged 100 coins to send 205 coins to myself. wtf?

The address they were sent to is: FUvpVUAnEf9u4JPmVWymhV5o1BEvMQBcyP , I guess that's the superfly wallet?
My address: FEJAP8xQRzpWdqtUifpU4CCW9doiTHfZKv

Here is the transaction id: b73735de10c9126308258ebac8484f3350a1fd68d5d7393104f4dc920d34b7a3 but the block explorer isn't up to date so I cant even be sure of what the hell happened.

Totally shattered me. Took me ages to slowly accumulate those coins. You might want to fix that.

Please PM Vegas. He will have your back.

Will do Woody, thanks.

Hi guys, i wan to share my idea about wallet.
As we can see, FlyCoin wallet is being updated oftenly, so everyone needs to check thread, look for the changes, download and replace the executable.
How about making an autoupdate option? When wallet starts then it needs to check for the latest versions, show some dialog with the changes and "Install" button.
We are making Fly better, and, IMHO, this option will make it much better and easier to use!

I 100% agree with this idea because I've only been in FLY for a short time and I've already had to update my wallet 3 times lol And especially with a POS coin I like to make sure that I'm always up to date so that I can maximize my staking rewards Cheers

A small part of FLY is to remove your worries and concerns. Its a tough road right now, but those that keep the faith and stay as a strong group will find a massive rainbow at the top of the mountain we are climbing called trust. Its steep, and long and treacherous. The very top of summit is called Truth.

My job as  team leader is to make sure no one falls, or is left behind. I feel the road might be too much for some. But , Im still going to hold us together until we reach our goals.

Why would I purposefully take the hardest road?

I always do.

The reason:

It has the most rewards. Think about your own life for a moment. Think of the most difficult things youve chosen to do? Has it not had the most rewards?

Yes, I could have chosen the easy path, and cloned another coin, just like the other 1500+ altcoin, and been done. But I wanted better for all of us. YOU deserve better than the landfill of rubbish/trash that you been getting served.

I WILL deliver the highest quality and most respected crypto coin EVER!

Love the idea. I will add this to the list. It may not come right away as we have more important coding to be done, first. But rest assured I want this implemented. I know it has been done. Ive already messaged both devs to include this when they can.

SWEET!! Now, maybe, ... just maybe, some of you can see why I am so FREAKIN' AMPED about FLY. Best devs, Best community, Best altcoin ever. Fly really is a revolution in the world of cryptocoins.

...and that is why your with FLY.

wow. Simply blown away by your generosity vegas. Most devs truly wouldn't give a shit. I really appreciate it.
I was mortified when those coins left my wallet and you sir have made my day. Consider me a long term grateful holder. I'm off to do a name claim and stake it up.

Cheers to you.

[vegasguy]

My biggest challenge is the mountain of mistrust in crypto caused be many others . Ive accepted the only way to absolutely prove that I am , "The real deal", is keep on proving, I WILL do the right thing, EVER SINGLE TIME.

It might take a few years to prove this, and Im ok with that. As long as it takes. I wont EVER give up on you guys. EVER. Please dont give up on me.

Vegas

[xProphet]

...my second idea is to finish the code, clean it up, make some public audits and then Vegasguy should get a certificates called "Proof-Of-Developer" and "Crypto-Certified Code".
This will add a LOT of trust to the coin, in my opinion.

There s no giving up on each other Vegas. That s why I love this community, in addition to DMD. People trust each other and trolls and speculators get excluded the moment they re discovered.
When community believes in each other and in this great coins, it s impossible to lose money.

Why? Cause this trust is what attracts people. Cause it s so rare in crypto.

Hey I warned everyone from day one that this would be a rollercoaster. Posted on page 1 (bottom). Posted August 17th 2015:

Ohh, this is going to be a wild ride

Depending on your position, you might laugh or cry, or both.

Trust me , you wont need promises to keep you "white Knuckling" your seat. If it gets too borning,I will even add some trolls for entertainment, some naysayers, and throw in some fudsters for fun. I will even throw in some haters as a bonus when it gets too quiet, and heat it up , and mix it all around, and if you start mouthing off with these idiots, Ill find the nearest exit, and open it, put my foot in your ass, then ill throw a parachute after you and watch you try to scramble to get it.
