HoboNickels - HBN - High Fast Stake - Version 2.0! More Secure, Less Intensive

[Tranz]

Hey guys there is a mis behaving peer on the network.  2001:0:9d38:6ab8:2057:269:3c0f:bb73  is requesting the same blocks over and over again rapidly. Currently the client does not ban this type of behavior. I will see what can be done to not allow this, but in the mean time I suggest you ban him via firewall.

Could somebody share with me valid peers.dat?

[presstab]

Hello fellow HoboNickelers!

I am beginning an advertising campaign on Reddit on 12/19.  Nothing big, just a bit of advertising on /r/litecoin and /r/cryptocurrency.

Here is what the ad looks like so far: https://i.imgur.com/NagXQoz.jpg  

I am totally open for suggestions for the text, but I think this leaves it pretty simple.

I would like to have the ability to continue advertising, so we are going to open up a donation wallet address for the HBN Foundation that will go towards advertising, and hopefully if we get enough donations we will be able to hire a freelance web designer to make hobonickels.info looks slick!

Donations can be made through the following wallets:

Litecoin: LXWR3Ph6rw3RW5a7rM787peyVwBUf6zmA9

Those seem like good peers. You may need to  delete peers.dat and try some of these.

"addr" : "[2001:0:9d38:6ab8:412:3f55:43e8:a41f]:52421",

"addr" : "5.39.90.17:7372",
"addr" : "5.249.152.30:7372",

If you are still stuck. try removing all peers from your config. Deleting peers.dat as well as database directory ,blk0001.dat,blkindex.dat. Then let it sync by using IRC.

Also be sure you are on the correct version.

These are orphans. They happen more often with coins that have quick block times. There is nothing you can do about them. The best strategy to prevent them is to leave the wallet running with a good number of peers connected.

To remove them from your wallet, start the HoboNickels-qt.exe with -salvagewallet . This will also remove your address book, so be sure to export it if it you need it.

Are you on the correct software version? The newest release is 1.2.2.3 you need to be a least on 1.2.1.5, but I suggest grabbing the highest.

If you are on the correct version, please paste the last 20 lines from your debug file.

i am getting lot of stake orphans is this normal?

[Tranz]

Normal maybe, but not acceptable. It should be 1 or 2 orphans for every 10 good ones.   If you are getting that many orphans, that is usually caused by too many small stakes.  It is best to combine the coins into larger batches. depending on how many coins you have I suggest 250-1000 coin batches.  This can be easily done by creating a second wallet called wallet-stake.dat and sending coins to it.

i have my payments in 500-1000 batches in a second wallet if you remember we discussed this few pages back and i did as you recommended.

An update on the advertising campaign:

Our reddit advertising campaign began yesterday, we have advertising setup in the following subreddits: namecoin, peercoin, cryptocurrency, gpumining, and litecoin.

Our litecoin campaign has already been exhausted, and also is the most successful so far. For spending $12.30 we got 16,500 views and 224 clicks.  Cryptsy volume went up from the 2-4BTC traded daily to just about 12.4 btc traded. These are huge results for such cheap advertising.

I would recommend chipping in a few coins so that we can re-up our litecoin section advertising. With such good results it would be a shame not to continue.
