[ANN] Expanse (EXP) - 1st Stable fork of Ethereum (New Algo + PirlGuard)

[defaced]

Something i'm noticing is that my mainnode, the one all yall are connecting too, is getting tons of connections. My other nodes however are only connecting to my main node and nothing else. I didnt change anything about how nodes gossip with each other, or peer discovery, which then makes me wonder why this is happening.

I'm connected to both linux and windows nodes.

Please delay the launch by 48 hours until the issue is resolved.

I'll talk with the others about it.

Thanks!

We want the launch to be FAIR. Doesn't look like much testing was done.

how many nodes are you connected too?

[yudhistira]

what is nodes?
how to mining with nodes?
whether the miners I've been running correctly?
if my coin will be lost at launch?

What it coulb be? lot of reasons ...

how many nodes are you connected too?

I'm connected to only one node, but tried all the other nodes mentioned in this thread.

Could it be that the nodes given in the OP have not network port (42786) opened in the firewall

how many nodes are you connected too?

Just the one I added manually.

[GoldenEye]

The running peer (ID: "f944c6702a78a...") has an IP (74.196.59.103) in the ID peer address, all other only [::] (IPv6 broadcast?)

How should my client connect the peer in a decentralized network?

[herbitcoins]

admin.addPeer("enode://0055fd5099543df005a13ea5bec103def47340de81a6c1b0ba20f8ef756a7fe575b362976b1a52c9f561dda95321700a1c9e769004d25278ce53d2d6aa0b65b7@80.240.138.173:42786")

[defaced]

Everyone admin.peers and see if you are connected to others now.. Also remember to portforward all UDP traffic for port 42786 for the machine hosting the node.

Also, everyone on linux

Code:

git pull origin
make gexp

then restart your node and see if you find some more peers

I'll remake the windows binaries soon.

[herbitcoins]

admin.addPeer("enode://0055fd5099543df005a13ea5bec103def47340de81a6c1b0ba20f8ef756a7fe575b362976b1a52c9f561dda95321700a1c9e769004d25278ce53d2d6aa0b65b7@80.240.138.173:42786")

this one will work 100% sure

just type admin.peers to confirm

[defaced]

admin.addPeer("enode://0055fd5099543df005a13ea5bec103def47340de81a6c1b0ba20f8ef756a7fe575b362976b1a52c9f561dda95321700a1c9e769004d25278ce53d2d6aa0b65b7@80.240.138.173:42786")

Yes that works fine.
It is odd. I have three nodes.
Two nodes recognize each other and the third node as peers.
The third node does not recognize the other two nodes as peers.

I was noticing the same sort of behavior also. It is strange. Whats strange about it is, the behavior is inherited from ETH since I didnt change that stuff at all. I found though that once I forwarded all UDP traffic on my nodes, everything started working alot smoother.

[Dave5]

Done that admin.peers   is null.

Did you hardcode nodes or we have to enter them maunaly?

hardcoded like 6 of them. Did you set up your router to port forward?

Also you are on the develop branch right?

[skunk]

everything works fine here on lan without port forwarding:
