This was a working coin in all facets until this new wallet came out. Now it seems to be a mess. Can't mine solo on the new wallet. New wallet ffs the old blocks so have to rescan to go back to the old wallet. And there seems to be next to no connections. What a mess. I think everyone should go back to the old wallet until that new one is fixed, at least it worked.

We need some working nodes.

[allknowingeye]

I seem to only ever get one working connection on this wallet. How many are other people seeing?

[fortune-gold]

there's a bit of confusion
Where I take the new wallet
Working nodes?
You can not sync in any way
The portfolio balance is higher than what you read on explorer
Are days that I'm standing on block 3365692 Wed Jun 14 14:28:38 2017
Version v1.1.0.0-gc1e46ab-beta
You can explain

Should I post option to download original wallet at nycoin.net? Original code at github is posted.
allknowingeye is having a problem with new wallet. I haven't heard any other problems. Anyone else experiencing trouble?

[allknowingeye]

While I can appreciate people are trying to rejuvenate this coin, that's great, we need to recognize certain functions such as solo mining must work. This coin is not able to function without solo mining. Pools cannot be counted upon to move the chain. I get intermittent response only from that new pool.

While I only have one connection I was able to send a test transaction through to Coingather so that is a good thing.

I would be happy to use the new wallet but not until it works with solo mining, and it seems others have had the same problem as I noticed someone else commenting on that as well.

I am back on the old wallet, completed a rescan, and have resumed solo mining. I am still curious how many connections others are seeing.

Has anyone been able to do solo mining on the new wallet?

Can it be that this crappy network has anything to do with Upnp Portmapping is disabled?

From NYC developer:

User is referring to solo-mining via the getwork interface which was deprecated some time back.
True solo-mining is available still via getblocktemplate (bfgminer supports this with scrypt asic's still); however separate software is required to do stratum mining (this is the traditional pool approach).

[allknowingeye]

I am mining with BFGMiner, latest version that works with every coin on earth pretty much but not that new wallet version apparently.

Now why would they do that. Is that not critical?

[allknowingeye]

I went back and tried both cgminer and bfgminer with this new wallet, neither could contact it. This is on the same machine with the same config file as the old wallet. What's worse is the two of them see different block heights. Something seriously ffed up with this new wallet at least it seems that way to me.

From NYC developer:

for getblocktemplate to work properly, you must specify '--coinbase-addr address' to bfgminer..

--coinbase-addr newyorkcoinaddress

[log1k]

haha you guys know that pool mining uses 'getblocktemplate' internally to generate work?
love these noobs!

by default if you don't specify a coinbase address to cpuminer/sgminer/bfgminer, it will default to getwork.
getwork was removed in late litecoin 0.9 codebase..

Hey guys I have some NYCoins in my old wallet and I tried to transfer some coins to my new wallet.  But the transaction is unconfirmed, and my old wallet is not syncing.  I just wanna get my old wallet syncing so I can transfer my coins to my new wallet.  If someone can help?   

[scryptenthusiast]

If you don't want to wait for old wallet to sync (takes a while) then you can simply save your old "wallet.dat" and replace this file in your new wallet.

I tried that already but it still didn't work.  My old wallet is saying 86 weeks behind.  Maybe it's a blockchain issue or something.  Is there something else I can do?

Ok I redid it again and it worked.  Thanks for the response tho.

Hey team NYC was once on Bleutrade, Maybe when we pick up some more volume then we can get listed again and on more exchanges.  I don't recommend "Yobit" tho.

Not mining to a pool - direct to a wallet. I put the --coinbase-addr parameter in and set it to a receiving address in the wallet but bfgminer always says that is an invalid address.

NEW YORK COIN (NYC) was listed on Bittrex in 2014. We will reapply to Bitttex and apply for Poloniex once everything up and running smoothly.
We could sure use the help at the moment!
