[ANN] [ETC] Ethereum Classic: Immutable Smart Contracts

[iotacampaign]

why seen a show where the best ETH vs ETC

[bittamak]

Until the bugs gets fixed, its a problem with these types of attacks ...focus needs to be on the stability of the network...

Hello guys

It seems like ETC is under attack and last night parity wallet from us node crashed , right now bot us and eu are running fine on https://ethc.coin-miners.info/ but still there is an attack on etc , i hope there will be an update soon to stop this kind of attack.

[ShooterXD]

One day this people will let us in peace and etc will show your real potential.

In time, great job to all dev who work to make it possible!

Gratz

How can I fix the geth sync problem? I tried many things but I couldn't be successfull. Is there any way to fix it?

Both ETH and ETC are attacked in a similar way this time. It is hard to sync geth due to memory overload. It's recommended to increase swap size to 64GB. More information here: https://www.reddit.com/r/EthereumClassic/comments/572vx9/etc_network_issues_discussion/

Also, some ETC block explorers are down since they depend on geth. Mining still continues, major pools implement different optimizations to mitigate the attack:

Hi everyone, 3 posts below are from reddit.

#1
The ETC network appears to be facing memory usage attacks. The issue is likely related to the latest attacks on the ETH network.

- Both parity and geth nodes are affected by the attack.
- For miners, it is recommended to use nodes with 16GB and above, and increase swap size to 64GB.
- More info and advice on how to deal with this attack may be available in the #mining channel of the ETC Community Slack.


#2
Etherninja with great advice in reference to the ETC network issues. Let me know if this link works for everyone.

"Increase swap 32-64gb. increase vm.swappness 60. parity dbcache 4096. tx gas cap 50000. pools might benefit from taskset if stratum process on same node. set ramdisk to expand more than physical memory. i am switching to dbcache from ramdisk for now."

- Give it more memory and restart when it consumed all cpu.
- For miners, it is recommended to use nodes with 16GB and above, and increase swap size to 64GB

I tried all these steps but there is no successs. My configuration I7 cpu 16 gb ram with 240 gb ssd. Any recomends are wellcome.

last night i was not able to mine either ETH/ ETC. it seems same sort of attack in both chain. Now I am able to mine ETH but is unable to mine ETC. What should I do ?

You can mine ETC to , there is a new parity update 1.3.7 and is a bit better now (just dont forget to set up a fail over pool), i just made the update on all the nodes on coinminers

Ethereum Classic Price Technical Analysis – ETC Breakdown Real Deal

Ethereum classic price continued to decline, and a minor correction yesterday versus the Bitcoin failed. The ETC sellers prevented the upside move. The main hurdle was yesterday’s highlighted bearish trend line on the hourly chart of ETC/BTC (data feed via Simplefx). The pair fell sharply and lost more than 5%. There was a new weekly and monthly low below 0.00160BTC. The price traded as low as 0.00151BTC...

All my REP coins are stuck on my Mist wallet which isn't syncing. Trying to sell those shitty coins before price drops

With it your etc or eth wallet will start to sync again.
It sync a bit slow but sync.
Thank you very much by share the solution to,

Yes, setting virtual memory/swap to 64GB, as shown above (for Windows) resolves the out-of-memory issue, and the clients synchronize.

Also, you can use Jaxx wallet which has ETC support: http://jaxx.io/

Can someone tell me what is going on with the price of this coin, i have bought bunch of it @ 0.0022 btc.
Any hope of recovering from the present price?

The main coin ETH is about to hard fork again. All the developers and business cases are working on the main coin. This dollar immutable ETC coin has no real developers and no real business cases. The sophistication in hard forking is beyond that 2 amateur developers that try to maintain this coin. When this hard fork on the main coin ETH takes place next week, it will leave this coin in the dust.  The original idea of ETC was to piggy back on ETH and copy and paste all changes as it developed. No one is competent enough in ETC to actually do that. So this I regret is ETC's swan song.

and so it begins. Ethereum hard fork in 85 hours - https://twitter.com/ethereumproject/status/786679946739589120

people got to do what they got to do with their etc coins while they can.
