[NSFW] Official Sexcoin Thread - New MANDATORY upgrade: KGW Timewarp attack FIX

[sxcer]

The idea is that we will basically force the users to update, since their client will be broken the next time they pay attention to it.

It is surprising to me no one yet implemented some automatic alert system into cryptocoin wallets. If wallet connects to multiple nodes that report
the same higher wallet version, longer blockchain and send some invalid data then warn user to check coin website or forum thread for updated wallet.
There can be more criterias that need to be fulfilled for warning to popup (to prevent abuse) but it can be done and would help solve issues big time.

Also, Bitcoin has instant messaging system where Gavin Andresen can send messages to all nodes on network, will SXC ever get something like that?

that's the alert system, the private/public keys were just changed in client 6.4.5, and we havne't had a chance to setup the code to send messages (that's not part of the clients, or public in general)

so, yes, that ability is in the client and ready to be tested

Am I the only one that are stuck at block 645553, have the latest wallet 0.6.4.6. I get active connections to the network but not synchronizing anymore. Strange. Worked fine yesterday. A bug in the wallet?

[Nerull]

did you unzip the who folder or just the qt? could try saving your wallet.dat and clean install it

[Credde]

Yes unzipped the whole folder. Get the following error after some time:

Exception: 11Dbexception
Db::get not enough space

I know there are enough space on my hd.

This happened to me too. It's because the blockchain you are on is the wrong one when it supposedly forked. All you have to do close down dogecoin-qt, go to your "C:\Users\*username*\AppData\Roaming\dogecoin"
make sure you allow explorer to see hidden files and folders so u can see "AppData"
Then, delete:
-blk0001.dat
-blkindex.dat
- the database folder
-DO NOT DELETE wallet.dat that is where your money is.
Make a backup if that stuff just in case.
Then re-run the wallet. It will re-download the blockchain again and you should be all set. Worked for me on 2 different machines

that for dogecoin but might still work

without understanding exactly why people are seeing the no space or dbfull error, I'd just say that the planned hardfork that happened friday was done with very little lead time, especially compared to previous forks. So there are quite a few old clients around and at least 1 or two miners it seems.

Because of that , there are two Sexcoin blockchains being produced.... call them the 6.4.6 chain and the 6.4.4-5 chain. Cryptsy and most pools have upgraded and are running on chain 6.4.6, along with most dedicated nodes we know of.

In theory if you simply startup the new 6.4.6 client it will mark the blocks belonging to the 6.4.4 chain as Orphans and move on with the 6.4.6 chain. In reality it seems that this is not happening. It could be that there is too much of the 6.4.4 chain synced onto the client and it simply won't mark that many blocks, going back that far, as Orphans. I'd have to read into the code to find out.

What seems to be the "fix" is to delete the downloaded blockchain and redownload.

Digdug on sexcoinforum.org has been looking at this issue and built a new bootstrap package. This won't prevent you from having to download a large amount of data, but it will speed things up since it's all in one file and zipped up.

Sorry for the current mess, but this hardfork was necessary to stop the KGW Timewarp attack that was reported on this thread a page or 2 back.

Thanks a lot, that tip worked as a charm!

Hi folks,

Which are the pools working by now?
I'm trying http://sxc.thec0de.com/, but would like to know if there are other with good hashrate.

 

[Nerull]

http://lavapit.lavajumper.com/ has a decent hashrate. for the most part its pretty decent

Why did Poloniex delist SXC? Anybody knows?

[Nerull]

looking at all those coins id say low trade volume

[Monica80]

Hi Guys!

We came out with a Magazine spread and would like to make it available to all of our crypto enthusiasts out there. We will place a JPG and a PDF link for you guys to download

We hope to get Sexcoin on a few magazines when appropriate based on the current amount of development work the guys are still crunching..

Nevertheless, feel fee to pass this around, use it as your desktop wallpaper, or if you know someone that could give us a hand (I will give you a hand in return to get a publication in an e-mag or paper mag, then that would be awesome! I am sure the Sexcoin team would gratify you in return.

Well, here it is, make it yours and pass (me) around ;P

All of the coin were having very low volume and some of them even 24 hours without a trade.
So it made no sense wasting resources for them

Yes, there is a slow down on alt coin usage and Sexcoin has been part of it.

I believe the coin has first to gain strength on a few exchanges before it can be move on to others.

Perhaps we were bitting more than we could chew but we don't control the conditions Bitcoin imposes and alt coins follow.

We will return stronger

Wow , you're doing promo work for sexcoin now?
Missed a bit of the hews here it seems .

This coin should be way more popular and usable then it is..

Hi Stompix Yes, I do Sexcoin promos All of the promos and ads I published are my pictures. How have you been?

Hi Pikuchato, well, yes the coin should be more popular that is for sure... But the coin is very much alive and under development, and that cannot be said about some of the other coins that have come and go.

This is a community effort, and we would love to have your and everybody's help in development, promotion, mining, and use.

Non one can argue that Bitcoin has fallen a little into the background again and that has affected the alt coins. But we are always working on the main frame, always twitting, and always coming up with promos. Sexcoin is always putt here, but our team is small, too small to gain a little more traction... We tackle issues and ideas as they come and w shave a lot in the filing cabinet We need help guys, come one... give us a hand or two
