STAR COIN [STR] - The coin with bonus STAR blocks

[vegasguy]

If anyone can make a pool for this I have lots of hash I can throw at it.

If Starcoin gets up and running again I will run a node and p2pool for everyone plus throw in my own hashes.

If you do so please advise. I still have no word on if their is an active development team or if this is a coin in limbo.

Well I was trying to set up a pool but I can't download the blockchain for whatever reason. Is there any way someone could upload the blockchain somewhere and I could download it and add it to Starcoin? I am getting the error "Warning: Checkpoint is too old. Wait for the blockchain to download, or notify developers."

This happened to me and I simply deleted my old blockchain and added the new nodes to my .conf file. Synced up fine.

As for uploading a blockchain, it could take me a few days to get it onto a torrent, as I am swamped with projects.

is there a working wallet download available... i might have str left in my wallet.dat but cant find any working download

What are the nodes? I only saw one IP address up top.

There's a wallet download.

These nodes got my wallet unstuck, they were posted earlier in the thread:

addnode=107.170.3.87
addnode=95.27.95.182
addnode=173.208.172.242
addnode=50.149.31.242
addnode=192.99.13.127
addnode=54.209.148.72
addnode=201.213.232.241
addnode=124.198.136.100
addnode=107.170.195.237

idk I honestly think a community takeover is in order. Voice your opions here, or the so-called dev is welcome to speak up.

So I have a node up and running. I am adapting the p2pool software to work with starcoin. It may take a while because I have to create a new network profile for the coin and wait for the blockchain to sync up (which by my calculation could take ~76 hours). We will at least have a new node on the network to go off of though. I am assuming the current version is v1.7.1.0 so that is what I am syncing up. Once I get the entire thing up and running I will give step by step instructions on how to get people to do it themselves so we can create an actual network. I am keeping track in a text file so I will post instructions here.

Nice work, I look forward to seeing your pool when it is functional. I plan on purchasing some more mining equipment in the coming weeks, so I will hopefully have a few extra MH/s to throw at it.

Since you seem to be one of the few people interested in keeping this project going, please keep me informed of your status, or post any assistance needed here. I will be glad to do what I can.

i am in to support but need a 32bit version wallet to work at the moment...

Are you unable to build it from source? I am unsure where trustworthy binaries are located right now.

[papasmurph]

lol unfortunately i am not that geek to be able to compile anything from source... i am happy to have my little mining operation running.

I know windows basic

Same here. I can't help much for Windows. Runs fine under most Debian/Ubunto distros. I customized mine a bit but it is an easy build if you want to try it inside a VM on Windows.

Here is how to compile a wallet from source on Windows.

My starcoin-qt wallet is not syncing correctly for some reason. There is no progress bar on the sync but it says it is still out of sync. Does anybody have an official block count? Is there some kind of block explorer for starcoin?

No official website and no official block explorer. If someone has an always-on node and would like for me to throw up the basic block explorer I could do that.

isn't the reward to half @ 2,102,400?

now @ 2,104,811

@siameze

yes block explorer is  kind of idea
