[888] OctoCoin Core 10.4

[NoobKidOnTheBlock]

Is there a bootstrap.dat that someone has so I don't have to wait almost 2 years worth of blocks to sync my windows wallet? That would be greatly appreciated Cheers

Sure, I'll put one up.

Thanks that would be greatly appreciated cause I don't know if I can wait that long for the wallet to fully sync lol

The bootstrap.dat download links have been added.

Hey mate I keep getting a 403 error saying I'm forbidden from accessing the bootstrap.dat from my server??? Why would that be?

Try now.

Thanks mate it's downloading now Cheers

Go for cryptopia IMO.

I 100% agree all you need is a website cause you guys got all the rest and you will get added to the voting list I'd love to trade OCTO there

Sounds like a plan, however I believe it would be quicker to get on Yobit to start with.

There is a bounty for a website, and two other for anyone that can recover and transfer the old Octocoin domain.
For the time being we need to come up with a clever alternative to octocoin.org.

Any ideas?

Couple questions for OCTOcoin.... 1st with the octocoin.securepayment.cc mining way when do the blocks you mined finally show up in your wallet? Also for the life of me I can't figure out how to just straight solo mine this coin??? I've tried everything like this is what is in my conf file:
server=1
daemon=1
listen=1
gen=0
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=22888
rpcuser=user
rpcpassword=pass
addnode=octocoin.securepayment.cc
addnode=162.243.144.135
addnode=162.243.149.125
addnode=162.243.207.204

and then this is what my .bat file for cgminer 3.7.2 looks like:
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
cgminer.exe --scrypt -o http://localhost:22888 -u user -p pass --gridseed-options=baud=115200,freq=800,chips=5 --hotplug 10
but everytime I run the program to solo mine it keeps telling me that the url is incorrect or something but I've solo mined plenty of Scrypt coins and with the same .bat file pretty much everytime with of course changing the rpcport and user and password lol

If anyone has any idea what I am missing so that I can solo mine this coin without using the miningpool site that would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

With the octocoin.securepayment.cc mining way when do the blocks you mined finally show up in your wallet?

The few blocks I mined got paid about 1 day later.  You should ask them to clarify the payment schedule since I don't run that site. 
http://mining.securepayment.cc/help.php

Also for the life of me I can't figure out how to just straight solo mine this coin???

Hmm... Try changing this:

Code:

rpcallowip=127.0.0.1

To, this:

Code:

rpcallowip=127.0.0.1/32

If that does not help, post debug.log.

I don't know mate it keeps giving me the same thing saying pool 0 slow/ credentials or url wrong so I'll just keep mining at the pool lol

I assume you are on Windows?  If so open a command prompt, type:

Code:

ping localhost

If it does not return 127.0.0.1, then change:

Code:

cgminer.exe --scrypt -o http://localhost:22888 -u user -p pass --gridseed-options=baud=115200,freq=800,chips=5 --hotplug 10

To

cgminer.exe --scrypt -o http://127.0.0.1:22888 -u user -p pass --gridseed-options=baud=115200,freq=800,chips=5 --hotplug 10

What should I do with my Octocoins in Bittrex ?

What should I do with my Octocoins in Bittrex ?

Please contact Bittrex support and let them know of the new wallet.
https://bittrex.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
I encourage everyone else to to do the same.

Until I can get a domain, website, and block explorer up.  We will need to rely on https://www.blockexperts.com/888 as our blockchain.  Unfortunately it's been broken for more than 2 weeks and are unresponsive.  Please message them here:

I've tried it both of those ways but I'm fine mining at the pool my rewards are starting to come in now so it's all good Thanks anyways for your help mate

I got a response back from Bittrex.

Hi,

It is not the same octocoin.

Thank you,

Whatever that means.

If is exactly what they told is that this Octocoin doesn't match with the old one, and i think that is strange if the dev wanted to revive the original one.....

[NoobKidOnTheBlock]

So good to see people mining Octocoin steady and getting this coin back in action That's always sweet when an old coin comes back and people start mining it again.  As for if this is a different Octocoin then what is the total coin supply for this OctoCoin?

[myfirst]

I only know of one Octocoin.  No clue what 'other' one Bittrex is referring to.

Maybe he thinks that this reborned OctoCoin is different from the other he found on Bittrex.... It could even be a overlook done from the other guy....

OctoCoin Core 10.3

http://cdn.securepayment.cc/wallets/octocoin/0.10.3.1/octocoin.png

v0.10.3.1

Behold, Octocoin is reborn!

Left for dead, abandoned by it's original developers, and community.  Octocoin makes a return with a shiny new Qt wallet based on the latest Litecoin 0.10.x source tree.

It's my pleasure to release Octocoin Core 10.3 (v0.10.3.1).

As always, before updating please make a backup of your `wallet.dat` file.  This version should be able to open any wallet.dat files created with the legacy Octocoin client, however once opened the `wallet.dat` file can no longer be opened in the legacy client.  Additionally, there is no hard fork.  The current block chain is 100% compatible with this new version.

Its recommended (but not mandatory) that everyone update to this version.  

http://www.securepayment.cc/images/web-logo.png

SecurePayment CC - http://securepayment.cc has kindly offered to sponsor this release.  
Please show your appreciation by mining at their pools (http://mining.securepayment.cc).

Download Octocoin Core

Yes there are Mac OS X Wallets and Windows Installers, the whole thing, done right! I'm not just some guy who's copying and pasting code.  I spent the time and effort using my skill and knowledge to build a full quality release.  The wallets below were built using the Gitian build process, the same process used for Bitcoin releases.

• Windows ]64 bit - ]32 bit
• Windows (zip) 64 bit - 32 bit
• Linux (tgz) 64 bit - 32 bit
• Mac OS X dmg - tar.gz
• FreeBSD (package) 10.x 64 bit - 9.x 64 bit

Note: DNS seed servers are not up yet. If you are unable to connect to any peers please open the debug window go into the console tab, type in the following command and press enter.

Code:

addnode octocoin.securepayment.cc add

After a few minutes your client should start connecting to peers.

Blockchain Bootstrap

It's also possible to accelerate the initial blockchain download process by using a boostrap.dat file.  Download, extract and place the bootstrap.dat file in the AppData/Roaming/Octocoin or ~/.octocoin folder.

Known issues

It's very much possible that the words Bitcoin and Litecoin may still appear in the UI, logs, or console. If you happen to come across one of this mistakes please file an issue at Github.

The Blockchain download stalls at block 75888 for some users. This was corrected in version 0.10.3.1.  If you are using 0.10.3.0 it's recommended that you update to avoid problems.

It's officially the season of reborn coins!

As for if this is a different Octocoin then what is the total coin supply for this OctoCoin?

I only know of one Octocoin.  No clue what 'other' one Bittrex is referring to.

Maybe he thinks that this reborned OctoCoin is different from the other he found on Bittrex.... It could even be a overlook done from the other guy....

I got some clarification from Bittrex, the "Octocoin" they are referring to is the Counterparty asset "OCTO" which is something totally different.

Anyway...
Working on a website now.

Difficulty is still low enough that you might be able to.
