The newest QT Wallet for BlackCoin is at time 1.2.5.2 from https://github.com/CoinBlack/blackcoin ?

In the last time the wallet hangs more times at my Pi2, is this the wallet or the Pi? Anyone have the same problem?

I don't have a similar situation, but I use 1.2.5.2 for staking on testnet and Pi3, with a lot of coins. After some time I noticed that the wallet hangs and CPU goes up to 100%. I suspect this to be the high amount of UTXOs I have after staking for a long time.

Hey all,

Been a while since I have done this. These last year has been a bit weird, regarding the price, regarding the community with rat4 launching Blacknet, Janko working on new things. It left many wondering "So, what is Blackcoin going to do now? Is this... It?".

It's not it. There still is a community actively building Blackcoin, with a new team under the name of "More", not to be confused with "Lore", Janko's protocol implementation.

For the past few months I have been helping guide lateminer address bugs and issues that were in Lore, including adding some other updates that he or I thought were appropriate. Everything was carefully considered, checked and then tested.

So finally! Blackcoin More is here! Get it now at http://blackcoinmore.org  or http://Blackcoin.org .  This is a very positive milestone for the Blackcoin community fully committing to continue what was left behind. It will be replacing Blackcoin Lore.

We thank the community for helping test this release.

I appreciate this commitment, I have been following the project for some time, and I believe in its purpose.

Great! Your commitment is much much appreciated!
Knowing or at least "suspecting" that you will continue to go forward with BLK was the main reason why I kept a lot of my BLK instead of burning them for Blacknet. Actually I own as many BLN as BLK in terms of "‰ of total supply".

Thanks! Also it's worth mentioning that I still maintain BlackHalo and BitHalo. It's still the only 2 party escrow software which is perfect for things like wire transactions without risk of theft or default, barter, sales of goods and services with risk of fraud practically eliminated. That and it has built in decentralized markets running for almost 5 years now. Would be nice if the Bitcoin community noticed how powerful a tool it really is.

The original wallet uses a different database-format for the wallet.dat so they are not compatible. There is a wallet-utility.exe in Janko's blackcoin lore, but I am not linking it here because I am not sure if it works with More, which is the continuation of the Lore tree although not developed by Janko anymore.

You however can (and maybe even should) always make a textdump of your wallet and backup it. That textfile contains your private keys and they can be imported into new wallets. With the new hd-wallet format, you can backup the masterkey, so you won't lose funds when you didn't backup the wallet after each transaction (because a transaction creates new addresses for change funds ect). The masterkey can be used to access all privkeys deriving from it.

Another possibility would also be to install More and then send all your coins to your new address although that might delay staking, since the transfered coins need to mature first.

Good news regarding Blackcoin More. I was wondering though, my BlackCoin QT wallet (1.2.5.2) has not been properly syncing since the 7th of March. Anyone have an idea why this is? Restarting the wallet does not help either.

Any errors displaying? The blockchain db can get damaged for instance on crashes or when the computer shuts down, happened for me with blackcoin and other coins too. If this is the case, you need to resync the whole chain. Maybe try to install More and see if it synces (it should also sync faster than original QT) and try to import your keys as described above.

Improper shutdown USUALLY is the case that causes it 99% of the time. If you got a power out, held the shutdown button, closed you laptop lid (more common), that will all cause database corruption.

Thanks for the tips to both of you, I will try them as soon as I am able to again

Petition to rename to MOAR

No, ok maybe not.    I noticed when installing Coinomi it supports BLK and even mentions the idea of staking for some coins.    Anyone know or has tested it working with a stake on BLK I wanted to ask ?
https://coinomi.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/29000026013-staking-in-coinomi

I know ages ago the idea of staking on a phone was dismissed for various reasons including security I guess, but I'm still interested if its currently possible in that case.   My phone is so beat up and old its practically in a retirement home of sitting on a protective shelf and needs the mains almost always but its still useful and actually a waste if I didnt use it

[Buchi-88]

The new more wallet v2.13.2.3 have also the command "repairwallet" or similar?

[Amadeus82]

Is this coin still alive? Any roadmap or published plans for the future?

[STT]

Its most definitely active but not especially on this forum which is a shame but there it is.   I believe more people are is discussion on telegraph app then here or reddit or twitter even but you should sign up to all to stay in contact with people involved with BLK.
If you are interested, start a wallet get a few coins in there and eventually you will be staking and part of the network yourself.   Theres no massive startup costs, you dont have to buy any equipment just use the PC you are on now is enough.  The protocol has a bias to new people who have never staked their BLK coins before and want to help confirm transactions.   The more the merrier and the better it works, its a very good system

Why would the protocol have a bias to new members? Are you saying this because the difficulty is low?
