I hope that the 150SOCC reward for uploading the screenshot of this announcement Page 1 is still on. I am too late to join in this when it first released and now I could only hope that this is not too late.

Delete your post (don't post wallet addresses in the thread please) and PM me the wallet address and I'll send you the reduced bounty.

Block explorer will be updated ASAP after blockchain fix.

*** FORK UPDATE - RESOLUTION - INSTRUCTIONS - ACTION IMMEDIATELY***

Linux users - Compile the new wallet from source https://github.com/novaexchange/SOCC and ensure you delete your blockchain, before using the 'connect' command in your conf as detailed below.

Windows users

1) Delete your blockchain files in AppData\Roaming\Socialcoin

To get to this directory, as I'm sure you all know, use %appdata% in the run box, and open up the 'Socialcoin' directory.

DO NOT DELETE THE wallet.dat FILE
DO NOT DELETE THE socialcoin.conf file

All other files and folders should be deleted.

2) In socialcoin.conf file, add the following line AND DELETE PREVIOUS. This is critical, and without this addition and removing the blockchain, the fix will not work:

connect=217.175.119.126:18645

So your conf file should now look like this:

rpcuser=<your local wallet address>
rpcpassword=x
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=18646
port=18645
listen=1
server=1
connect=217.175.119.126:18645

MAKE SURE YOU DELETE ANY EXISTING ADDNODE LINES. Once we issue recompiled wallets, the old nodes can be added once again.

Note that the above is a temporary solution whilst we also work on issuing recompiled Windows wallets (I am away from home currently will get to this ASAP). This will be done ASAP but for now, removing the blockchain and mining with the above settings should work successfully. To aid mining, connecting to GCPOOL is the suggested solution as part of the resolution to this issue is mining the blockchain until the height exceeds the height of the hacked chain. Indeed, to secure the network properly we need people to start mining on this pool please.

Any questions, post them here.

Massive thanks to Linus on the Nova Exchange for his dev assistance in this. And to Glen on GCPOOL for clearing his hangover incredibly quickly and recompiling his pool

Cheers, Mark.

I cant find the socialcoin.conf file in the default data directory of Socialcoin . Could some1 help me please? I would really want to mine SocialCoin cos it seems like a good project and it was fun to me to mine stuff.

[SDHarley]

Create one of it's not there and ensure the content is as per the advice. Make sure you name it socialcoin.conf and not socialcoin.conf.txt and it will be ok

[SDHarley]

Diff on the blockchain looking good now.

Is this node still online?  I set up our client to use only that node, and we can't connect to it (0 peers).

Windows wallet stuck 

You are on the wrong chain. There will be a new windows wallet compiled as soon as possible. If you want to get back to the original chain with the old windows wallet you need to follow the steps in the instructions regarding the fork.

Any news? Are the coins safe in NOVA?

[roycilik]

Any news? Are the coins safe in NOVA?

nova already open trading

Any news? Are the coins safe in NOVA?

We have opened SOCC markets for trading but still not allowing deposits and withdrawals until YoBit fixes their wallet.

Original chain:
Novaexchange, gcpool.eu, prohashing, blockexp.com:9996

Hacked chain:
YoBit and some of the other mining pools

[SDHarley]

I do believe we have noticed that Yobit have updated their side and their current block status matches the official chain. Against this, Nova intend opening up wallets for deposits/withdrawals in a short while. Confirmation either here or via Slack ASAP.

 Nice! About cryptopia do you have any opinion?

Where to download the new correct blockchain?

[SDHarley]

Where to download the new correct blockchain?

The new source you mean? Check page 37.

Otherwise, follow the instructions now live on the website, this means you will delete your local blockchain and re-sync. Which is what you need to do anyway.

[SDHarley]

Wallet re-sync instructions are now live on www.social-coin.co.uk

Note that recompiled Windows wallet will be published ASAP.

What are the future developments for this coin? Any plans for Masternodes?
