[NEW CORE WALLET]

PIVX 4.1.1 core wallet has been released to address an intermittent network sync issue.

This is a mandatory update and all PIVX wallet users are advised to upgrade to maintain network consistency.

For more info & downloads: https://pivx.org/pivx-4-1-1-core-wallet-release/

[bathrobehero]

Since 4.1.1 I keep forking again.

Edit: nevermind, fixed it, the projectmerge.org snapshot was forked (compared to chainz) from 2365699

[q327K091]

since 4.1.1 no new forks detected, if anyone is use snapshot and resync, also discord support is always open if one needs additional help

master node network is upgrading as we speak as are POS nodes

and I am also legendary 

[bathrobehero]

So, turns out that projectmerge.org's snapshot is forked compared to chainz from block 2365699.

And pivx.blockfiles.download's latest bootstrat is at block 2191397 which block also has a different hash compared to chainz.

So let's see the hash for block 2368020, on
chainz.cryptoid.info and explorer.pivx.link it's 11dd5014f7c5a80765e3ef41bb62d615bc952ba7b0f5a5b3c09d6b02b037655e and on
pivx.ccore.online, pivx.tokenview.com it's eeb6ce309f33fd8f45730c3e9281c814efeace0bcbad5efbb5f1ab40103b932d.

So there are definitely forks.

Either way, where can I get a snapshot/bootstrap that's corrent and aren't very old?

Congrats on Legendary!

Hi,

Don't know what to do anymore to get my pivx running again.
Everything worked fine until on 5 june I installed the version 4.1.1 (was on 4.1.0) Also did OS update on ubuntu.
Now I am stuck and don't get new blocks anymore. (then it was block 2363446)
Did downloaded the snapshot and installed it but now im am stuck on block 2369796.
(from http://178.254.23.111/~pub/PIVX/Daily-Snapshots-Html/PIVX-Daily-Snapshots.html)
Do get this message :
ERROR: ContextualCheckBlockHeader: forked chain older than max reorganization depth (height 4097)
ERROR: ProcessNewBlock : AcceptBlock FAILED

note: I see that my debug.log file don't get new lines anymore, error is from screen where I started pivxd &.

Would be happy if someone could help me with this or give an usefull link.

Hey, do a full resync without snapshot. I did the same and now it works fine. Both snapshots available are bad.

And a full sync doesn't take ages anymore, maybe 2-4 hours.

If you need nodes, use the node list from here: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/pivx/#!network (click on node list).

[lucv]

Thanks bathrobehero,

Adding the nodes and a full resync did do the job. (but used up 120 GB  of my internetusage)
So back to staking 

[versprichnix]

since update to v4.1.1 i don't know how to PoS any more. Is it cold staking now? i want to stake myself. What do i have to enter into the fields? i prever to mint into the addresses they originate, and i have a lot of seperate addresses.

PIVX is disponible in any DEX for buy/sell?

PIVX Development Update - Week 1, June 2020

Monthly PIVX development update (slightly late, sorry!) has just been published covering the extensive wallet development work for the past month, about the mandatory 4.1.1 core wallet release, and of the next scheduled core wallet build that’s shaping up very nicely!

PIVX has 2 ways to stake now:
1. Hot Staking - Usual Proof of Stake method where you just have your coins in an online wallet, and unlock the wallet for staking-only.
2. Cold Staking - Where you can delegate the staking of your coins in the core wallet to another non-custodial core wallet that's online.

With either method, the block reward will be merged into the original UTXO that won the stake.
So it will "mint into the addresses they originate" regardless of which method you stake with.

Found it, thanks, and it's as simple as before.

PIVX is certainly undervalued at the moment. Some of the best technology, listed on Binance etc. Maybe with the alt season spike things are possible, we'll have to wait and see.
