🤖[ANN][BIS]Bismuth 2.0 - Beyond DeFi

[kungen]

*opens Bismuth wallet after a couple weeks*

Oh, nothing is working.

*upgrades to latest wallet released 2hrs ago*

Oh, database needs upgrading.

*waiting on new bootstrap, waiting...*

Everybody loves active development, but at some point the user experience could be better prioritized...

does it work or not?

i always delete the old version(i do have a backup of wallet) then download and install the new one. works everytime for me.

I can't "Send" coins now.

- unlocked the wallet
- hit "Send"
- dialog pops up, cannot edit any values

Am I missing something?

that's probobly a bug so help the community to report it. text the details with version and os so they can fix it. have you tryed to delete the folder and reinstall it fresh?

I got the same problem when I upgraded from v4.2.3.7 to v4.2.4. Deleted BIS from PC completely. Make a fresh install for latest wallet. Restore wallet/keys. Problem solved.

I'll try that.. this makes my point exactly that a user shouldn't have clean their system manually just to get the wallet to function after upgrades. Just some feedback from the community in hopes that it affects devs task prioritization.


Update

Still doesn't work with the latest release downloaded and install after removing the previous install (just left the key in there which really should make zero difference).

Wallet says active version: 4.2.4.0 in red with latest version: 4.2.4.3

4.2.4.4 is a pre-release, as you can see on github, please use the previous one.

You need to edit the values before you click "Send"

4.2.4.4 - 10th of May 2018

    -Light wallet now automatically connects to predefined nodes if local node is not running
    -Wallet key generation fixed
    -Minor text changes, code reorganization, bug fixes
    -Removed time tolerance for mempool future transactions
    -Verification function upgraded

What does this mean? Is there a going to be a problem if you created a wallet with the previous version?

You need to edit the values before you click "Send"

How does one attempt to edit the values other than moving the cursor around in the pre-filled form and whitespace? It doesn't allow an insert or I'd change them and then click Send...... that's the problem.

Try to make a clean install of the wallet, with the latest 4.2.4.4 version, tested on windows 10 and I don't have your problem.

Glad to see many new release. I will give me it a try later and post if I have any feed back. But, I don't think there will be any to post. Because it has been well tested it.

Just found out about this project and glanced over it and it is very promising. I wanted try mining BIS but I am a CPU miner and based on network hashrate, it doesn't seem worth it. However I will try to buy some from Cryptopia and will set up the node.

You are right. CPU-days are over a long time ago. The coin is still low at the moment so buy them is a good option. Do not buy too many due to I will buy a few in 2 weeks =) Good Luck anyway

Could you advise, how many BIS you have to have for running MN ?
