[ANN] FedoraCoin (TiPS) - New Dev team: Fedoracoin Foundation

Hello.

Sadly I need to inform that our wallet have been on fork as well.
Some transactions are accepted and now on lately unconfirmed.
That for we have less TIPS on wallet than people have on accounts.
This is not big amount -2549005.76691476, edit: over 5mil, But we need to keep TIPS market closed until solved.

alcurEX exchange

 good news about tips on alcurex. i got most of coins recovered from backup dat.
final amount we lost in fork is -422 005 tips.

TIPS-LTC market is open for trading,
but transactions we will accept after we can be sure there is no other forks coming.

If tips have dev community holding coins, maybe want to support missed 400K coins back to the traders and keep market running on alcurEX

I am not dev, only supporter and fan but I know the dev-team has no holdings and did already spend their own money to support TIPS with block explorers, websites and so on.
But I like the honest way you run Alcurex exchange and support your users even in your spare time so I coughed up the missing 422005 TIPS from my pocket. After losing ~10 mio in the recent fork this doesn't really make any more big difference

Tips - a very old coin. Respect that poured into her new life

Is there a way, that I can know that my unconfirmed transaction return back to the sender?

[psycodad]

Is there a way, that I can know that my unconfirmed transaction return back to the sender?

The sender can try to start the wallet with -rescan option to check the blockchain for missing transactions.
If you were expecting coins, you can do the same to be sure and also check the blockexplorer for the txid.

In any case and whatever you do, make sure you have a working backup of your wallet.dat before you start!

hello
Is it safe to start allow tips transfers again?
-halibit-

... Or can forks happen again?

Forks can happen again,If you want safe,Long deposite confirm time ,30-40 days,Fork 30 days blocks,Need over 600G hash,I do not think anyone would fork,The cost is very high

I do not think 7 days is enough ,last fork,about 6 days

I see.
On that case I will increase deposit time to 28 days.

Have you think about add POS feature for TIPS?
It should solve forking issues.

No, the problem is, the sender sent me coins and after he recover his wallet those coin goes back, so I never receive them. But he denied. I am sure this went back. So I want to know is there a way I can prove that the coin goes back to his wallet?

You can reindex your local blockchain with -txindex. If you are you are sure you are on the right chain and fully synched and the transaction in question is not there (fedoracoind gettransaction <txid>) it can IMO be safely assumed that the transaction did not happen and the coins are still in possession of the sender.
The above is just the method to check for the transaction locally without trusting a block explorer, naturally you can check that on a blockexplorer too.

Mind you, there is one exception: If the coins that were sent were mined also on/during the fork, they would dissappear the same as the transaction and indeed not reappear in the senders wallet - because they would have dissapeared anyway when the longer chain took over.

But it all boils down to the senders willingness to resend the coins... Wish you good luck with that.

Good to see fedora community active. I have few mil coins from last 2 years in my wallet

[Fedoracoin(TIPS)]

Hello everyone,

I would like to bring everyone's attention here. We have suffered two large fork recently, and now it's really time to bring the topic here and would like get everyone's opinion. So we can move forward, because this can happened again.

Here are the opinions that we can work on.

1. Keep current algorithm, increase security, adding more nodes and checkpoints.
2. Use POW+POS
3. Merged mining
4. Update algorithm, like Scrypt-N, X15, etc.

Worst case hard fork may needed.

Please contribute your opinions. Or if you have better opinions, bring it. So we can make a better FedoraCoin together.

Is there a way, that I can know that my unconfirmed transaction return back to the sender?

This might be worth a try:
1. export your private key
2. backup your wallet.dat with pending TIPS
3. create new wallet.dat (rename old wallet.dat, for example to wallet.dat.old)
4. import your private key
(5.) also a full resync of your blockchain could help.
This was helping me to have back my pending/unconfirmed TIPS, inlcudeing a full resync of the blockchain.


Further development, please be a part of it and post your feelings

We are thinking about a change of PoW only. But of course we wan to discuss this with the community first.
With a change from PoW only to a PoW/PoS with PoS rewards and PoW like it is right now attacks/forks wont happen so easy again.
What do you think about a PoW/PoS conversion?

We will need some time to discuss this, please post your feelings about a change like that.
This change will not come out of no where, and if anyone is posting a "new wallet" DON'T download it, we will post it here and link it to the website at www.fedoracoin.xyz

I have been following the fork issue, and agree something must be done.  As for who did it, my money would be on the SHA256 takeover group.  They were unable to monopolize the coin because several exchanges other than BTER started trading real TiPS so they took another route.  I do not believe they have given up.

As for any of the above suggestions, I would be OK with any of them except changing the algorithm.
(Disclosure: I don't mine TiPS or any currency and haven't for a year or more)

BUT, I would tread cautiously.  Some wallet changes might play right into the hands of the SHA256 Group.

TIPS INFO Fedoracoin are a digitally based cryptocurrency similar to other digital currencies such as bitcoin, litecoin and dogecoin. Fedoracoin is a peer-to-peer cryptocurrency, meaning it uses public-key cryptography which operates on a decentralized network of computers. When a user pays with Fedoracoin, they request that a public log of transactions, known as the blockchain, updates itself with the new ownership of the coins. These transactions are securely conducted and verified by this decentralized network of computers across the world. Fedoracoin is based on Dogecoin with parts from StableCoin. This means that it processes transactions more quickly, more fedoracoins will be created, and they can be mined, or created, more efficiently by CPUs and GPUs rather than specialized equipment. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Join us right now! ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• TIPS EXCHANGES Cryptopia •••••••••••••••••• TIPS/BTC TIPS/LTC Alcurex •••••••••••••••••• TIPS/LTC TIPS/MRC Bter •••••••••••••••••• TIPS/LTC TIPS/CNY Bitbi9 •••••••••••••••••• TIPS/CNY Novaexchange •••••••••••••••••• TIPS/BTC TIPS WALLETS           * Click here or on this image to download the current blockchain.
