first stake with bottlecaps but 0.00--is this correct?


Status: 7 confirmations, broadcast through 6 nodes
Date: 8/15/2013 15:05
Debit: 0.00 CAP
Net amount: -1.00 CAP
Transaction ID: 7408b519c87f1246ed7a22e0b52fb8bc6eb612ed5384fbc94f21efab8875194b

Generated coins must mature 520 blocks before they can be spent. When you generated this block, it was broadcast to the network to be added to the block chain. If it fails to get into the chain, its state will change to "not accepted" and it won't be spendable. This may occasionally happen if another node generates a block within a few seconds of yours.

Back on the right chain.

[Thrash]

I'm back on the correct chain after redownloading with connect instead of addnode to a clean directory.

Go CAP!

The first POS block I found was 0 as well. I've found a few since then and received a minimum of 0.01 and a maximum of 4.24

It seems today I received more then a few 0.01 for stake of 10 coins.

[Thrash]

Now that I am back on the correct chain I have a fair amount of POS that were generated but not accepted still showing in my wallet. Is there a way to make those go away?

Everyone update

[mullick]

Anyone still having issues getting on the correct chain let me know. It will take some time to kill off the old chains/ bad peers. By the 17th we should be golden

This will fix most relating problems. I like the fix tho, something unique or has someone done this somewhere?

[mullick]

Well a little of both. Petrified did some work with gamecoin and its forking issues that I applied to caps. Sunny king helped point out the PoS issue. I went through did the code compiled client got them to sync with the required checkpoints ect. I will continue to strengthen the network with further updates. Currently working on the novacoin-seeder here https://github.com/CryptoManiac/novacoin-seeder

So I had a lot of help but there was a lot of testing to be done hence the delays

1.5 is done but we need to get the network on the same page before we introduce any more drastic changes so its expected shortly. Ill update the changes to the development branch and comment them out for now. Sometime soon

One of my clients (windows) got a little stuck, but restarting it with the node list BitJohn posted fixed that right up. Linux was fine with nothing, All looks good! Thanks for the fixes!

Verns pool is under a ddos attack it seems. Taking the majority hashrate out. Solo mining is recommended now. Difficulty will drop low in a few blocks. Everything else seems to be going smoothly

[Vivisector999]

Not sure, but for some reason this is the first version I have had that is giving me problems.  Seems to constantly stop downloading the chain, even though I have had up to 8 active connections.  And for some reason all the connections will drop randomly and I will be knocked off the network?  I must have done something wrong.  I will try deleting everything again and re-downloading.  Already tried that once already.  Any one else having the same issues?

If you get stuck at one part try deleteing you peers.dat and restarting see if that helps

If you are on the right chain they should go through. Was the transaction from your wallet? Also are you still on the correct chain matching here?

As a precaution remove  50.137.233.14 from your .conf file. It is having connectivity issues

just received my CAPs from Vern's pool (still down), There are some hiccups downloading the blockchain, and it seems that i'm stuck at block 75488

re-downloaded again with only addnode=199.180.115.100 in conf, my CAPs from vern's pool never confirmed   F@@K.. and lost connections at 76575 block..

at last!!, re-opened my client..

dowloaded the whole chain : check
on the right chain (according to explorer) : check
my CAPs confirmed : check

i'm tired but happy
