stiven siegel? will chic nurris in your team?

lol

You guys are too funny!     

All joking aside, you may have noticed that Bittrex had KR offline for a little while today. Wallets are still disabled but, you can actively trade again if you already have an account.

The issue seems to be with 1 transaction, on or about the time of a 20k sell this afternoon. Both Bittrex and Krypton devs are trying to resolve why we see differences in what the Krypton explorer 1.0 and Krypton explorer 2.0 say. When we resync the chain we have another answer too! We're in detective mode over this one transaction! All of us.

So, don't worry. Your KR at Bittrex is safe. You have not lost any KR. We're just trying to find out why this one transaction is wonky.

I'll update you all tomorrow. Meanwhile, enjoy any cheap KR you can catch!

so that's why i seeing this issue earlier but when i did a  trade it is still working thanks for the info dev hope this problem will be resolved not so soon, and regarding to these wallet updates i think it will really mooning again the price of KR, good luck dev.

[vella85]

Do I sense a moon shot soon?

any good reason?

Yes, actually!

I've been holding this secret close... but, Krypton is coming out with a one-click wallet solution... very soon!

It will even feature the ability to create paper wallets!

So, be excited!

Next in store is a web wallet.

Development is progressing!

I am excited now that you mentioned a web wallet. I've been patiently waiting for months now for a web wallet and can't wait until it is released. Yes development is progressing nicely here, Keep up the good work dev!

why wallet maintainance so long on bittrex?
i want to sell my kr about price 30k.

You can still buy and sell.
But not withdraw or depost KR until update is done.

[arseaboy]

still in maintenance and I think dev already trying to figured out what Is causing the problem hope it will resolved asap. good luck dev.

Guys... miners... This is NOT what its supposed to look like.
You should never support a pool to get more than 51% of the power. Ever.
This much unballanced power is not healthy for any coins or chains.
Also you could easily be a tool in a theft.

Decentralization is what this is about .... help make it so.

Wake up and move your miners around please.

Thanks.

Thank you, frosty, and others for bringing this to our attention.

I have made the following announcement in Krypton's slack (to 453 members) but, want everyone here to read it as well:


covertress [10:15 AM]  

@channel: It has come to our attention that hashing power on the KR network is being greatly skewed by one pool, 4miners (http://kr.4miners.net/#/miners). I ask you miners to please be aware of the danger of adding your hashing power to any dominant pool. Watch the network and mine accordingly, please. Thank you. http://explorer.krypton.rocks


Other supported mining pools are:

Coin Pool : http://kr.coinpool.biz/#/

Krypton Pool : http://www.kryptonchain.com/#/pool

Miner’s Zone : http://kr.miners-zone.net/#/

Suprnova : https://kr.suprnova.cc/


Thank you!

The reason is simple: suprnova is not a reliable pool..I've been mining various coins on it..it has so many 'issues'...so, people go to '4 miners' because it's a great stable pool...we pay a lot for our equipment, who wants to waste it hashing on an unproductive pool??

Interesting, what are the issues ? Actually I'm doing pools and crypto since 2012, I'm available 24x7, I even have a support chan in IRC or via Twitter.. I pay bounties for bugs, I pay bonuses, I even pay coins after rounds have completed if there were any issues.

I've never heard of any "issues" and the KR pool is running for quite a long time now.

Beside of that, I'm developing my stratums, by frontend and backend myself and I don't rely on any other developers who open source pool's backend software so I'm certainly aware what's currently going on in the background. I can see attacks on stratums, because I've developed stratums, I know how a fake share attacks works because I'm writing counter measures against it.. Or double share attacks, fake blocks etc.. Even IF such an attack sucessfully happens, I pay afterwards and reimburse the miners...

EDIT: Oh and btw there already was an "issue" which fast fixed quickly after it was reported and all users got a decent 20% bonus on their balances. I'm not doing this as my dayjob but I certainly serious in what I'm doing.

Thanks !  A pleasure having you on the pool

It seems there was error in krypton slack at the morning but now it is working, @covertress was you aware of that?
And is there any update from bittrex about wallet maintainance, any ETA for maintainance to be completed?

    I always get into some trouble when I post online. Anyway, I'm mining from China (I'm from Canada though..just work here)...so I need a vpn to use the suprnova dashboard. So, from here, the dashboard is slow, stops, starts...is inaccurate to a level that approaches silly. The quantities are usually way off..the hashing power dips and peaks ridiculously...4 miners may be 'copied', but who cares?? It works flawlessly here with an even, steady hashrate... and payout. The issues with suprnova are across many coins, not exclusive to KR. I found the same with Shift, ETC, KR...and so on...I love the interface and dashboard, but the accumulation of issues I mentioned made me use it as a pool of last resort...if I can't find another pool that has a decent hashrate on the coin I'm mining. This has been my consistent experience with suprnova...I love the look, the dashboard, the selection of coins to mine...one sign-in for all coins...but the unsteady hashrate, stopping and starting dashboard, and the biggest issue for me mining here is the huge number of messages 'job not found'...meaning that the pool has no work for the miners...I've never had any pool drop my miners so often, then not auto-resume mining when new 'work' is found. All other pools I use don't have this issue. Now, maybe suprnova just has an issue in China. I've tried it with and without the vpn...makes no difference. This is my experience. I'm not here to offer cheap criticism...I like suprnova's features very much...just wished it worked better. Ok...enough said...but all this is the truth here at least.Thanks for responding and reading. Something to consider for pool operator's who have users in China maybe...there are a huge number of crazy big mining farms here...maybe it's related to that..and the censorship of the 'Party' always 'blocking' everything borders amusing were it not so intrusive and super paranoid...they block the weather streaming video from Nova Scotia, Canada..like that's a security threat to China..lol....

Thanks for your criticism, let me explain a few things to you:

1. Dashboard - The live Dashboard is designed to show a light-weight estimate of the last 60 seconds of your miners at a glance. It's updated by Ajax and many calculations take place on your local machine in javascript where data is fetched in the background through an JSON API. It's not designed to give you full accurate Info, for this you have the "My Workers" Tab Sometimes the Dashboards gets hit by folks who are pressing F5 a lot, due to anti-ddos the requests are throttled to 20 requests per second on the API. So if someone gets over this limit, it takes about 2-5 seconds until the throttle is released and the API is "unlocked", just wait a bit and the data will catch up.

2. Job not found. This doesn't mean the Pool has no job in the background, it means the Job you've sent wasn't found on the pool. For example I send you "Job A1" - you reply with "Job A0" then you get a "Job not found" error - you've sent a stale share from the old round. This happens VERY often with ETC/ETH/KR/SHF/ELE because of the fast block times. Other pools sometimes simply don't report the error and say "OK" but also don't count your share. If other pools accept stale shares it'll be unusable data because it's work done for a round (block) that has already passed, but, as you see, it's sometimes better (maybe) to simply be (slightly) dishonest and accept the share but discard it silently in the background All what "job not found" means is that the pool is telling you you did your work too slow, you did it for the old block which has already been found.

3. China - I wasn't aware you're located in China, but imagine your post earlier said "Pool is unreliable".. Nobody else knew you're located in China, so everyone thought the pool is generally unreliable .. Which is simply not true, I have very reliable, ddos protected and quite expensive servers in the EU and USA which run over multiple failsafe links in clustered mode. It's really, really hard to get them down, even by tough DDoS'es. If you would have told me you're in China I can set up a dedicated node for china too, let me know in which region you are and I'll find a host near you which can be used as a mirror for the pool.

   Thanks for the reply...I'm in Jiangsu Province...Nanjing -Changzhou-Suzhou area...Nanjing would be best as it's the provincial capital where I live...I knew much of what you said...but it was a bit amusing and surprising to hear that 'job not done' is 'skipped' by some pools to make you feel good..lol...but I wonder if 'job not done' could also be related to the speed of my recent connection? I will have a high speed dedicated line in the next few days..right now I have a el cheapo landlord who got 20m internet split between an entire apartment complex..so I sometimes am running at 1 mb/s..lol...but I didn't think mining depended too much on internet speed...but this is super slow. So,..there you have it..thanks for your reply..a lot of well explained information there..thank you.

Lol this is funny i know ocminer and ive been mining at suprnova since like 3 years now, one of the best pools around and all that time i never heard of 4 miners.... 

BTW: Hi ocminer, long time no see

This pool is a clone 100% copied and stolen NO ONE SHOULD TRUST 4 miner

We didn't steal anything. We run modified version of https://github.com/sammy007/open-ethereum-pool which is licensed under GPLv3. We even left the original footer and dev donation address.
And each one pool was once unknown and new...
