I'm considering making a video explaining BitBar, but I'll admit I don't see it's advantages, could someone please inform me

I'm just finished my comment to the PPC video, now I can help you with any coin you want.

good weekend for BTB

My BitBar client stopped downloading blocks at 10734, a proof-of-stake block.
The log file reads:

As far as I know I'm using the latest version, v0.4.0.0-g32a928e-beta

Can anybody help?

There are no problems with PoS blocks so far. all clients are synced.

Delete everything in your userdata\roaming\bitbar direcotory, just remember to leave wallet.dat and bacup it , if You didn't allready

Redownload blockchain, its very compact so should be quick.

Thanks, that helped!
Just wonder why....
You happen to be able to give me a few hints regarding PoS blocks?
How long would I need to keep 30 bitbar until a proof-of-stake might appear?
Does it make a difference if I received the 30 bitbar in one transaction, or if they are distributed over e.g. 30 transactions of 1 bitbar each?

Thanks!

Stake power needed to mint PoS blocks starts rising after 30 days from transaction.
30 bitbars is almost 1% of all!! that should make it very very easy to make a PoS Block.
If this is one transaction, I think no more than 2 days after initial 30, and possibly first minutes.
If many very small transactions - it could be another month.

To enable PoS minting you have to unlock Your wallet.

Create a .bat or .cmd file with those lines

@echo off
@echo Enter PPC password...
SET /P variable=Password :
bitbard walletpassphrase %variable% 9999999 true

and run in form your wallet directory after sync, than enter your password and you should see a change in bottom right corner of GUI.

Hi BitBardev,

ah ok that explains some of it.
I only read those examples regarding PPCoin where they said 1 coin for 30 days, and so I thought 30 coins might already start after 1 day, but from what you say it still needs to be the thirty days, so that explains why nothing's happening so far, and why the first PoS blocks only started appearing a few days ago. Does that have to do with proof-of-stake difficulty falling for the past few days when taking a look at getdifficulty output?

I already have my wallet unlocked for minting, but I prefer doing it manually in the client after starting. It's just a pity that with ctrl-l you can delete the console output, but you cannot seem to delete the command history that way, so the password stays visible there.

Thanks!

looking for some technical support.

when I do a getdifficulty in the client console I get valid response proof-of-work and proof-of-stake values.   hoever if I do a json rpc call to the client using the following conf file the POW and POS come back as 0.0.  

rpcuser=*username*
rpcpassword=*password*
server=1
rpcport=10004
rpcallowip=192.168.0.1
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1

Am I missing something?

this is what I'm passing to the client  { "jsonrpc": "1.0","id": "1", "method": "getdifficulty" }

Hi BitbarDev,

so, since yesterday they got their 30 days. So far, the client has created a PoS block for 7 times, and in all cases they remained unconfirmed and didn't make it onto the network. :-(
Is this normal?
When I'm solo-mining, my PoW worked fine (though I haven't solo-mined with 0.4.1 yet).

Thanks!
Mike

I understand you are generating this manually? Did you check how this RPC would look like if you use e.g. bitbard to send it via rpc to the running instance?

@BitBarDev: Example: One of the blocks is from 4:10h UTC, so it was chronologically between blocks 13066 and 13067 (>20mins after 13066, >8mins before 13067), so no chance for it becoming orphaned I would normally assume...?

Ok seems I missed that not only was there already a 0.4.2 but even already a 0.4.3 (even though it still identifies itself as 0.4.2), now I finally got my first proof of stake with block 13099 - hooray :-)
So my understanding now would be that it's ripe for next proof of stake right after those 520 blocks, or 520 blocks+30days?

Kind regards
Mike

? Do I need to mine on my BTB wallet to get POS STAKES or will just opening the wallet with mature coins in it generate the proper credits to the network and create my POS stakes?

Just open the wallet and unlock it (using "walletpassphrase" command in command line windows from BitBar).
I guess if you were mining your POS wouldn't really make you happy as it gets rounded to zero.
In my case I consolidated funds by moving money from multiple smaller transactions (i.e. mining) to myself in one transaction to have a larger POS.

[FinShaggy]

Are there ways to earn this coin without mining, maybe by writing?

[alyons]

Is this coin dead?

It's not dead, but it is lacking documentation and community involvement on bitbar.biz and bitbar.info. The owners of those sites need to get the projects up on github so the community can contribute.
