HBN Lesson for the day #1

Why orphans happen?

Here is one example as to why you might get an orphan block with PoS.
Code:
04/10/14 03:25:33 SetBestChain: new best=0000000005cadad37032  height=746269  trust=1931039688483  date=04/10/14 03:24:40 (peer sent block)
04/10/14 03:25:33 ProcessBlock: ACCEPTED (Block is good)

04/10/14 03:25:36 getblocks 746270 to 00000000000000000000 limit 500 (network wants the block)

04/10/14 03:25:39 getblocks 746270 to f6593834a47b8f920358 limit 500 (network wants this block instead)

All within 6 seconds, for world wide network, with 30 second block time. Not bad really!

That is incredibly fast for the daemon to realize that the block wasn't accepted by the other nodes. Very interesing.

New wallet is working really well for me... now if only the price of HBN would take a dip so that I can load up!

Yes mine has also been very nice.  Been testing the new start up, so far it is working. Load time on full block chain with empty wallet was less then 10 seconds. Old version was about almost 5 minutes.

Still had a few issue with Asserts, so changed the coding a bit and getting good success. Doing 1 more full network sync test from scratch. If that goes well I will look to move this into production.

Good news and bad news.

Good news. After fixing a small issue with the Pi, it staked quite easily within 10 minuets of 1500 coins at 20 days weight, after getting up to current.

https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/8233-pihobonickels/

I am considering loading up a few of these bad boys with version 1.4.0.1 and some coins, and selling them.  Fast load time, easy staking, should be perfect for the pi. If you are interested in buying or helping, let me know.

Bad News.
I am going to release 1.4.0.1 as a pre-release only. I have a been able to create a stable index by shutting down the client every 200k blocks, during initial download. If I let it go from start to finish i get an assert failure on the next shut down, and restart. But all seems fine, if I give it a break. Not sure what is going on, but I wouldn't mind a bit of feed back from the community.

I'll put this up tomorrow, so we can get a few tests and feedback in.

Thanks!

The Pi sounds awesome! I just wish they had expandable RAM! Still considering it though. So small.

Version 1.4.01 should not be a problem if you already have the chain downloaded then right?

See if this page helps. You may just need to add a few nodes manually.

I had the same problem. I just deleted everything except for my wallets. downloading the blockchain again, its going to take a while. If you can get it to sync without deleting anything, that's even better.

If I start from fresh and just keep Wallet.dat file will i loose stake data ??

Nope staking info is stored publically on the block chain not on a users machine.

Moving to version 1.4 should not require a re-index.  Unless you were on a very old version before.

Was it trying to sync with the whole block chain? Or are we only talking about a few blocks to get to current?



Version 1.4.0.1 will require full re-sync.

Using this is ok. Best to create your own index, but this is safe enough. However you shouldn't replace your database directory, this is used for the wallet.dat.  Just need the blk0001.dat and the leveldb directory. Those 2 are for the block chain.  wallet.dat and database directory work for the wallet.dat

hobonickels appears to have accomplished what 99% of the other altcoins have not been able to: slow and steady price gains that don't seem to be in any danger of crashing back down. Kudos to Tranz! I think the fact that he hasn't been pushing the coin on every exchange under the sun, or doing any of the other stupid tryhard marketing efforts that most coins do nowadays, is a pretty clear indicator that those are not what makes a coin grow.

I think Tranz has taken the "if you build it they will come" approach, meaning that Tranz has done the building and lets other participants come add to the coin in other ways.  Without a variety of people helping with the coin and a community, then a coin is nothing in my opinion. HBN has seen a lot of support from all types of people and that is what makes it strong.

check out here to get a working copy of the blockchain just a few days back

http://wiki.hobonickels.info/index.php?title=Replace_Blockchain

Using this is ok. Best to create your own index, but this is safe enough. However you shouldn't replace your database directory, this is used for the wallet.dat.  Just need the blk0001.dat and the leveldb directory. Those 2 are for the block chain.  wallet.dat and database directory work for the wallet.dat


I just learned something new about the file structure... thanks Smiley
