There is only one chain, they need to resync. There would only be a fork if the chain was changed (which there were no changes to), please read up on how blockchains function. The issue with the update just underscores what we are trying to fix, slapping good working code on the testnet and working properly for a week then launching live on the network with an unidentifiable issue is exactly the type of problem we are fixing. We will just push all these updates into the java wallet and stop trying to put makeup on the pig. The btc pig is very cute but its fat, slow, unstable and dirty. And until someone cleans it up its just going to be bad code.
There were no fork, the problem that Cryptopia used V5.4 and needs to re-sync their wallet! The main wallet was not changed too much - only POW which exchange doesn't use.
The chain is one - Cryptopia was stucked during implementation, now solving it with re-sync process.
The Cryptopia support is very fast with any kind of service, very good service!
CoinExchange didn't change anything, so they were on V5.3!
OK, I tried to stay silent.. but I cannot.
Please look at the evidence and stop saying there is only one chain.
First, lets be clear.. There are currently at least 2 separate chains.
Evidence
- 1. the exhange was on block 177734 as was my wallet before they went down for maint. The explorer is on block 177443
- 2. We have compared blockhashes of the 2 chains, and they are different.
- 3. I have sent coins to both exchanges AND the transactions are NOT on the explorer
There is other evidence, but that is enough to prove there are 2 seperate chains.
Maybe before you "please read up on how blockchains function" ... you should.
Also, before you blame btc
The btc pig is very cute but its fat, slow, unstable and dirty. And until someone cleans it up its just going to be bad code.
You should realize that billions of dollars are riding on that code... DASH is also based on bitcoin and it is much more complex, fast, and stable.
java may abstract you away from memory management, but cpp is much faster then java hands down because of direct access to memory which you dont have in java.
SO, please stop denying that there are two distinct chains right now and do some work exploring each chain to figure out what happened.
