[ANN] Iridium (IRD) - People are Power - Community build crypto

[iridiumdev]

Everything looks good, but what's the unique feature for this coin..

It seems like it's an another BCN not XMR, BCN have huge amount of supply, so the price is extremely low in the current stage for several years.

Heya, so right now we're working on a website which should list each of the unique features of the coin.
The main unique feature right now is the decentralized development of the coin, since many community members have contributed more than I, the only centralized dev have.
The second main feature is low supply, coupled with the CryptoNote protocol which has research-proven anonimity, just like XMR. In the future we will be upgrading this technology to remove things like ring-signatures and other minute things that may allow people to track wallets. The wallet features mix-ins, (false addresses that you mix in with transactions to disable anyone from decerning the real wallet from the fakes) and other features.
Low supply allows the coin to increase in rarity, and hopefully simultaneously increase in demand as well, so miners will continue to support the growth of the coin.

Thanks for asking, we will make these features clear with the release of the website

Any date for the website? Could be nice to shill on twitter....

The domain we're using is "iridium.cc"

It will be impossible to get some number of coins soon. This coin attract very high interest.

Since you made the transactions on a v2 wallet and not a v2.0.1 wallet, the transactions will not be confirmed.
Since you made them a while ago, try opening the wallet you made the transactions from (the sender, not the reciever) in the new Windows simplewallet. Linked at: https://github.com/iridiumdev/iridium-v2/releases/tag/v2.0.1

When you've opened the wallet that sent the v2 transactions in the new simplewallet, type 'reset' and it should reload and clear any non-confirmed transactions out, meaning that the balance will be useable from that wallet again. You can use this to re-send your balance to the v2.0.1 GUI wallet, or do whatever you'd like with.

It worked like a charm. Thanks dev!

No worries, just say if you've got anymore issues and i'll try to fix

Something seems wrong, as the daemon is not accepting blocks that my pool members are mining. I'm temporarily shutting down mine77's stratum ports as a precaution so as to not waste people's hash power-- hopefully another pool can successfully mine a block and get things moving?

Damn, what a rocky start. Is there a testnet where we can try to figure it out?

Confirming that mine77 has some issue, hashrate is pratically 0!

Please check as soon as possible...

Not only mine77, but my 2.0.1 wallet is displaying "Warning: last block was received 1 hours and 11 minutes ago." Something is definitely broken and I wish if the dev wouldn't rush to make people update their wallets until he tests everything on testnet to make sure it works smoothly. People probably run 3 different versions of the wallet at this time, it's ridiculous.

This pool has a different difficulty target than the other pools.

I wouldn't recommend making any transactions at this time, you may lose your coins for good.

Owner of globalpool.cc will have to restart his daemon and re-sync blocks, it seems a transaction on there has caused blockchain to stall.

[iridiumdev]

I actually cannot solve this issue since it's not on my end, but the miners...
I don't know how an invalid transaction has worked its way into pools but I can't solve it without having a large majority of hashing power.

[SpecialistMiner]

http://ird.globalpool.cc/# is NOT WORKING PROPERLY! I didn't get any payment from the pool since 2 hours!!!
All my hashpower is wasted again???!!!!
What is going on?

[thegreyfalcon]

I have pending balance at Mine77 for around 2 hours that isn't being paid yet

[SpecialistMiner]

And on the ird.globalpool.cc is Hash Rate: 442.56 KH/sec but last block found 2 hours ago!!!
WTF?
Who will pay for that?

[iridiumdev]

The blockchain has stalled, for some reason pools cannot mine a new block, this is an issue on their end, I cannot solve this without them.

Can it be mined solo? If so how?

The difficulty is too high, I will see if it's possible to 'roll-back' and start from a few blocks earlier, so no transaction bug happens.

I am not sure what to think. I just resynced the blockchain and threw some NiceHash at mine77 at my own expense, and was able to mine a few blocks, but mine77's view of the blockchain is not converging with either globalpool or [Suspicious link removed]. I am keeping mine77 stratum servers offline (so as to not waste anyone else's hashpower) until there is some clear resolution.

[iridiumdev]

I think all that needs to happen is Globalpool.cc delete his blocks.dat file and resync the chain, that should solve it.

There is very high payments in the site ird.globalpool.cc, it seems like a system crash or hacking.
