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

[psycodad]

As promised, here is an update on the qt-wallet:

I have added all existing TIPS logos to the new qt-wallet and set the wallet version to 2.0.0 everywhere. The qt-wallet builds fine on Debian 8 but since it requires qt5 it won't build on Debian 7.

If somebody is able to build for Windows, the repo is now ready for a builld I think.

Core hasn't changed, except it gives now also the proper version number, but that's really only cosmetic and doesn't affect operation.

Regarding exchanges: Thanks guys for all your efforts on notifying them and pushing them to install the new wallet. I will talk to halibit to see if we can get him back into the boat.
Has anybody notified Cryptopia btw?

Regarding the question on which block the change happened: According to Ahmed, both wallets use the same chain as long as there is no attack. As soon as an attack is seen, ACP should kick in and it might lead to a fork for those with the old wallet. Which I read as: Now the attacker can only convince the users of the old wallet to "ride" his chain, all users with the new wallet will not follow the attackers chain.

Again: Please update now to the new wallet from https://github.com/fedoracoin-dev/fedoracoin if you haven't done so yet!
If you can contribute a windows build, please do so. Ahmed is trying to find somebody but so far without success.

May I suggest the following:

1. Update the Source code page and indicate this is a mandatory fork and specify which block number it took effect at.
2. Start a new Tips thread, use the existing graphics and explain why the fork was necessary.
3. Contact BTER and NOVA exchange and implore them to switch to the new wallet and block chain.
4. I've already contacted Yobit about a listing and I'll contact Alcurex - because for all we know BTER was in on the scam taking place in the old wallet
5. We can also contact Bleutrade - they're receptive to new coins.
6. Get the Windows Wallet done asap - there are people mining in my pool, but unless they can compile the linux code, they have no place to transfer their coins to.

any other ideas would be helpful because we now have a shiny new wallet and block chain that's not susceptibel to the Orphan hack, but no place to trade the coins.

We also need a Block Explorer and I can take the lead on getting that done right now.

However - I think a new Thread is the most important.

who want to take responsibility for some of these things?

thanks

Thanks for your suggestions and again thanks for your efforts and work put into bringing TIPS back on exchanges.

1.
We can't update the old repo as only invisibel had access to it and he can't be reached. The new repo is up2date and I hope that either teillagory or testbug update the OP very soon.
Regarding the blocknumber this took effect: There is no hard number as I understood Ahmed, ACP kicks in when necessary, eventually causing a forge. The worst thing that owner of the old wallet can experience is getting onto a fork caused by the attacker.

2.
That is something testbug and teillagory who maintain the OP should decide. There are currently already a bunch of TIPS threads, beginning a new one won't help the occasional users to find the right one (check how many post in the old threads). But I see your point of starting from scratch at this point.

3.
As I understand this has been done already and NOVA even already listed TIPS.

4.
I will poke halibit with a tiny stick to see if we can get him to trust the TIPS chain again. I am pretty sure Yobit wants somebody to cough up money first, but its definitely worth a try. I also do not count on BTER to update their wallet, their no-withdrawal policy got really suspect over time.

5.
The more the better.

6.
Agreed, we are trying hard, though the old wallet is still usable. It is most important that miners/pools and exchanges use the new version.

Regarding block explorers: we have actually two, but as it looks they have not updated to the new src yet. If you want to setup another one that certainly is highly welcome.

Ok
psycodad I have a few ideas. We need to contact with TIPS pool owners. I have not see yet owners of pooltobe (PCFIL), Hash-to-coins and Multipool.us. I suppose that thise gues can help us if they will update they wallets to a new version and will make links on they pools mainpages to this thread, talking, that TIPS have an updated source code and sending TIPS to BTER is unreliably. Also, what pools of TIPS do you know? We need to contact them. Due to this manipulations we forced BTER to update wallet or close TIPS deposit. This actions decrease deposits on bter.
Also, for good aim, may be people will start collecting donations for Yobit?
And for new exchange may be will contact with poloniex?

[Hellion93]

Also, how many time it will be take to make a new Windows wallet?
I think we may start a new tread, linking on them past treards
And some advertising  Somebody can buy me order on Novaexchange?) I am ready to decrease the price there. After selling this order I will ready to make a donation to Ahmet (he did his work well) and donation for Yobit

Thanks for your ideas. I have contacted poolto.be on IRC, multipool.us via email and hash-to-coins.com via their contact form.
bitcoinpool.us seems not to have TIPS mineable anymore, so they should probably removed from the OP. I only know the pools from the OP.
smarterhash and mining-dutch.nl are active here, so I am sure they have updated.

Please feel free to lead the campaign to add TIPS to yobit, as I said before the more exchanges the better. However I can't offer to handle that myself at the moment.
Poloniex would be awesome, but I'd say lets get things straightened out and a stable network first for some time before we aim for big exchanges like Poloniex or Bittrex.

Ok, for start I will make a free request on Yobit. But i need some info (I am not programmist, and some questions will seems silly) Quontity of TIPS blocks? Are unlimited? Version of secp256k1? (if any) Dev language? Official blockexplorer is http://www.fedoracoin.xyz:3001/?

with all due respect - since you're a newbie, I'll send my btc to them directly or we can send BTC to psychodad and he can submit btc to yobit to get us listed there.

count on me for .05 btc to help get us listed.

[cryptofarmer]

I've been in touch with some exchanges and throw them a ball to list TIPS.
Hopefully, at least on of them can do something for the community.

Ok, no problem. I will request free addition on Yobit and Psyhodad will collect btc for paid promotion and will make a paid request. Just give me all need information) I asked them before

I guess with block number they mean current blockheight, which is at 1299000 right now. For the money supply we would need a working block explorer, but the figures shown on both at the moment are still pretty accurate.
It includes secp256k1, but I honestly don't know what they mean by old or new version. Maybe just select one and let them find out what they want. For dev language I'd propose english.

There are 2 block explorers in the OP, both are notified they should update but haven't so far.

Perfect. Anything that we can do to make the other blockchain obsolete is in our best interest and best for the community of legitimate miners.

so - do we want to formally request donations to buy our way onto Yobit.net

I think it would be a great thing - Yobit gets a lot of eyeballs and volume.

I am interested in helping with Fedoracoin by hosting a node and a pool. But my knowledge on creating a pool is next to nul, I am willing to learn.

I have been mining feroracoins on multipool.us and taking them to bter.com. But I am no longer able to mine on there correctly. So I found out that they have not upgraded to the new wallet. I have now opened an a account with novaexchange and they say they have the new wallet.

I have tried to mine on the http://fedora.poolto.be/ pool, but they are having problems with the backend. I have tried the other pools that this thread talks about but no luck there. So I would like to get a working node and running pool on my equipment and using the novaexchange to see if the new wallets are working correctly.

I am willing to learn.

Thanks

In order to support update,Sell coin on bter ,Buy back from novaexchange.
Need windows wallet,Then can withdraw from novaexchange

I think it would be a great thing - Yobit gets a lot of eyeballs and volume.

Cryptopia said they lost 60mio coins on one of the last attacks and they will not re-enable TIPS. No reply yet from Blockexplorers.

So let's try to get on Yobit. What would you aim for (0.1 or 0.5) ?

[smarterhash]

OK - I took care of the Block Explorer - I've worked the the guy at Chainz before - he will nuke the old block chain and the new block chain will appear here in the next 24 hours:

https://chainz.cryptoid.info/tips/

check back in a day or so for the new block chain information

So What your saying is there will be no more mining of ferodacoin, you can only buy and sell ferodarcoin from now on?
