Ixcoin TODO

[FrictionlessCoin]

Hi Everyone,

I'm back.

welcome back.

having issues synching with the blockchain and was only downloading a small number of blocks after startup then stalling. It's crashing on me now when I start it. I need to look into this. Any suggestions as to how to fix this would be welcome.

i still have that runtime error on the new windows wallet, worked fine on first run, it synched my old wallet address (the one which wouldn't send out coin), I managed to send Luke his 5 ixcoin back, then after my laptop had restarted, this every time I try to run the ixcoin wallet;




can anyone help? I don't want to uninstall everything as the wallet address which that windows pc knows is being mined to (and locked).

thanks in advance

If you have an old version then the data in the appdata directory is in conflict with the new one.   Start fresh, or delete the appdata directory.   Save ofcourse you wallet.dat file.

Here's the deal,  the 0.8.6 client uses LevelDB and not BDB, so obviously it is not compatible with the old client.

However all your private keys are held in the wallet.dat file,  so you need to keep that.

Hi Everyone,

I'm back. I'd lost access to my secure machine these last few months loosing access to all my ixcoin-related account passwords. This combined with a somewhat lack of community enthusiasms for Ixcoin at the time,  made me focus on other things.

It appears the website Ixcoin.org was taken down by the host in January due to excessive bandwidth. For some reason, lots of people were accessing the Ixcoin website or it was hacked. I'm looking at restoring the website at the moment.

I'm not sure if I owe someone a 30K IXC bounty for something. If I do, please msg me. Last time I ran the Ixcoin client (several months ago), it was having issues synching with the blockchain and was only downloading a small number of blocks after startup then stalling. It's crashing on me now when I start it. I need to look into this. Any suggestions as to how to fix this would be welcome.

I see that there's an initiative by ixcoin.co to update the Ixcoin client. I think that is great. I'm happy to put this up on the main ixcoin.org website (once I get it back up) if others welcome the idea.

Looking forward to getting Ixcoin back on track if there is community support for it.

Thomas.

Yes, 30,000 IXC bounty for the new client.

Hope you have more IXC to pay for other bounties.

This place is getting crowded of developers: Nasakioto, Frictionlesscoin, LukeConnell.

After a necessary confrontation among them, I would like to know the tasks our dear developers will "take under their wings":

- LukeConnell: ..........

- FrictionlessCoin: .........

- Nasakioto: ..........


A big Thank You to our TRIPLE ALLIANCE.

Well, let's hope Mr. Nasakioto starts sending out bounties to encourage more development.

A symphatizer of ixcoin from The Republic of China is asking me instructions how to set up the mining of ixcoin.
Can you help me to give him simple instructions to follow. Shame on me, but I never mined ixcoin, apart from cloud mining.
Can you help me out?  He is the only one updating info about ixcoin in China. i wanna give him complete info on how to start mining IXC.
I suggested even pools like Bitparking and Ghash.io, right? But he need more specific instructions how start a pool or join a pool.

Please help me to help him, who is going to help iXc.

Thanks

You just mine on Bitparking and GHash.IO,  nothing really to set up.

Are there any events in Silicon Valley right now?

Cause I just drove all the way out here and since I'm roughing it in my car [hoping to find a good job] I might as well do something productive for iXcoin if there is anything going on.

Even a Bitcoin event, I'd crash that thing wearing an IXC t-shirt. 

I hate Bitcoiners and their Bitcoin arrogance.  lol.

Did you guys hear?  PayPal is testing a multi-coin wallet.

Now which coins would you think they're gonna include?  For one, very popular ones like Dogecoin but for sure they'd have to add one of the most stable and well secured and oldest coins, iXcoin.

If I were gonna accept multiple coins for payment in one wallet I would absolutely include old, tested and secure coins like IXC, NMC and DVC.

And then add just a few newer ones like Doge.

This is like an unofficial ETF as such a global payment wallet would serious increase the exposure, demand and most of all, the velocity of iXcoin which in turn really increases the value.

So we definitely have some big catalysts lined to for the 2nd half of 2014.  I won't share where I think the price will go by the end of the year, but it will mirror the first half of BTC in 2013.

And that's something to get excited about.

[Nasakioto]

I spent 12 hours per day the last 8 months spreading the word and bringing in investors but without proper developers I would still be alone here.

That said, Friction brought hope back and brought talented dev work for two months and even built a site and new logo.

Luke. I have no words for this guy.  In just 3 weeks luke has moved mountains.

There is no coin with this kind of talent.

So Thomas, these two guys deserve recognition in a huge way.

Well I guess we could split the 30K IXC bounty between Luke and Friction then. How does everyone feel about this?

And just like I supported Their decisions I will put my 633,000 iXcoin votes behind you all the way.

Wait, you have 630K IXC? Wow. You are indeed the Ixcoin king here ;-)

[Nasakioto]

i still have that runtime error on the new windows wallet, worked fine on first run, it synched my old wallet address (the one which wouldn't send out coin), I managed to send Luke his 5 ixcoin back, then after my laptop had restarted, this every time I try to run the ixcoin wallet;

That is my issue too.

[Nasakioto]

Hello,

I shared the following post with the community and then from there a few of us have been in discussions on the approach moving forward. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=432578.0

I've been working on a new website, roadmap and strategy for iXcoin in collaboration with the small but active community. http://lukeconnellau.wix.com/ixcoin-v3

It would be good to chat on skype to discuss iXcoin in further detail.

I'll read through the various Ixcoin-related threads this weekend to get back up to speed.

The community website looks impressive! It will need a bit of cleanup though.

Will check if I have the same problem.  What version of Windows?

Wait.... the .exe file for iXcoin 0.8.6 is named ixcoind.exe and the client is iXcoin-qt.exe ... so it appears you are running the old client using the new database!

[Nasakioto]

About the website: I hope ixcoin.org will simply mirror what ixcoin.co will be. The reason is simple: I made an effort to convince websites to update the address of the official website, while others did not do it. Having both it will give anyone the chance to be updated to the last developments.

The previous host for ixcoin.org wants $85 because of the bandwidth over-usage charge. I had no idea a $5/year hosting plan could generate $85 without blocking the account way before for over-usage. I'm not sure it is worth going back to this host if such things are possible. I'd like to find another cheap host to host the old ixcoin.org page. I'm fine with ixcoin.org mirroring ixcoin.co if everybody else is. ixcoin.co would need a bit of cleanup first though. Can we use the old logo?

[Nasakioto]

If you have an old version then the data in the appdata directory is in conflict with the new one.   Start fresh, or delete the appdata directory.   Save ofcourse you wallet.dat file.

Got it. I need to go over the new Ixcoin client source and compile it when I get a chance. Which version is the most stable?

[FrictionlessCoin]

No

Yes, I am using the old client with the old database. It crashes on startup.

[Nasakioto]

No

Noted :-) Everybody else happy with the new logo?

Information about the new client is at www.ixcoin.co under downloads section.

Hi,

Thanks for offering to split the bounty between a few of us. It will certainly help us all take ixc to the next stage. The community voted on the logos among other things here https://tricider.com/en/multiBrainstorming/CNvk

Factoring in fake or double votes, results from voting determined that the linked IXC symbol within a thick circle was the most desired logo with the option of retro theme in future.

The community website you've seen is almost finished and is hosted and built using wix.com

The site should be finished this weekend. I wouldn't bother with that existing hosting firm. Can you point the domain to the community website DNS or is ixcoin.org locked until they receive payment?

Regards, Luke

[Vlad2Vlad]

No

Ahahaaaa.  Short and to the point.

Agreed, the new logo is absolutely perfect.
