So shapping up to be a bad day. No end in site for real work. And yes it looks like wallets are creating their own chains.
I am going to turn back on the checkpoint server as that seemed to help keep most wallets together.
7-09-08 03:17:34 SetBestChain: new best=8c0ca8d785485e6d50ae height=5642854 trust=87513099890830 blocktrust=18179455 date=09/08/17 03:17:12
I will try to push out the changes and a updated checkpoint as soon as possible..
I gotta get off for now. 15 hrs in front of computer.
Feeling a bit better tonight. I have a plan put together that should help out. I am going to finalize the changes tonight and put out the executable, the fork will take effect very quickly, 24 hours or less. I also believe I have a reason for the forking and a potential fix. I am hopeful this will help. I will also put out detailed instructions for those that need it. If all goes well and everyone can get on this chain and stay on it. Then we should be good go and I will contact Cryptopia and get their feedback. Please stay tuned! Here is the best chain I know of right now. SetBestChain: new best=eaff371bf47b0db67406 height=5646256 trust=87572632652924 blocktrust=20663627 date=09/08/17 23:19:30

The block chain is the main innovation of Bitcoin. It is the
first distributed timestamping system.

Something strange is going on at this time. My wallet was staking until block 5641297. Now somebody overtook with a new fork going to block 5641537, letting a lot of orphanes in my wallets. All my minted coins become orphaned starting from 12 hours before. My block high is on 5641537 now.
And another phenomenon: Before the "current PoS netweight" was around 200000, now it is around 400000. So we have two coexisting competing chains? (I remind some days before we had a "current PoS netweight" of around 800000 and more, so one chain in consent?)
Can you tell me the wallet version you are using? Im fine with the 1.5.5.5 wallet since more than 24hrs

Can you tell me the wallet version you are using? Im fine with the 1.5.5.5 wallet since more than 24hrs 1.5.5.5 since two days, 1.5.5.3 before. Both have been working well. I'm compiling myself on ubuntu linux, version 14.04.5 LTO.

HoboNickels Version 2.0 is now live. https://github.com/Tranz5/HoboNickels/releases/latest Everyone must upgrade by block 5667000 or by Fri, 15 Sep 2017 21:00:00 which every comes sooner. Changes in this version to create a more stable block chain with less resource usage include: - Fixed issued where clients were creating own chain
- Block time changed to 2 mins.
- Min stake Age changed to 1 day
- Min stake reward set at 20% Yearly
- Stake will degrade over difficulty slower
- Old clients will be disconnected on Friday Sept 15
Upgrade can be very simple or slightly complicated depending on if you are on the correct chain. To ensure you are on the correct chain, type the following commands in your debug console: getcheckpoint "height" : 5651019, getblockcount 5651019 If these match or a very close you should be good to go. You can also check against what I post here using getblockbynumber 5651019 If the hash value matches then you are golden. You will only have close the client, replace the executable and start it back up. Just check back here to ensure after the fork all is well. If you are one of the unlucky souls that do not match the best chain. Here is what you should do. 1) close the current client. 2) download the block chain from HoboNickels.info http://hobonickels.info/HBNBlockChain.zip. Or resync the blockchain from scratch using version 2.0. 3) replace the contents of the .zip file, over your blk0001.dat blk0002.dat and remove/replace your txleveldb folder from %appdata%/HoboNickels directory. (This can be different on linux/mac systems) 4) remove the peer.dat from your %appdata%/HoboNickels directory. (This can be different on linux/mac systems) 5) start the new 2.0 client up. 6) goto the debug window/console and type addnode IP add. Depending on how long you were on the wrong chain, you may have to re scan your wallet to get the correct coins in place. If this is necessary, start the client with -rescan option. This can take 6-24 hours depending on computer resources. The current good IPs are: ( this list will be updated as I know them) 5.103.138.97 146.71.78.97 158.69.48.52 80.56.92.208 85.4.82.82 Current Best Chain: SetBestChain: new best=191c1bb7bfede5f89e64 height=5653023 trust=87703134339018 blocktrust=22162211 date=09/10/17 15:42:09 If you are in the midst of re-syncing the block chain, you should be fine to just replace the executable. Question or Issue, let me know. Thanks and happy staking!

Updated the Client from v1.5.5.5 > v2.0.0 an everything went smooth. At the time writing my client is connected to 5 v2.0.0 clients already. Total connected peers are 23 with < v2.00 Current PoS Difficulty: 0.00468566Current PoS Netweight: 936376I had recently lot of orphans, but i guess this had to do with the chain issues.

I am sending out alerts this morning, so that should get more people on the right version. Orphans should be much lower after the changes take effect. In the mean time you can try to stop client, remove or rename peers.dat and add 1 or 2 peers you know are good.. Don't have to do it, but it may help.

Thank you. Let's wait until a week or two after the fork takes effect, before we celebrate. I am still seeing lots of orphan blocks, so side chains may still getting created. Such as these: 2017-09-10 21:25:10 ProcessBlock: ORPHAN BLOCK, prev=f2f0e3d7722e00a65705 2017-09-10 21:25:12 ProcessBlock: ORPHAN BLOCK, prev=e607d22ea5c1f601b3c0 2017-09-10 21:25:12 ProcessBlock: ORPHAN BLOCK, prev=1fb5c078b1a6b7a30d50 2017-09-10 21:25:12 ProcessBlock: ORPHAN BLOCK, prev=35ce6730686a04b690a7 2017-09-10 21:25:12 ProcessBlock: ORPHAN BLOCK, prev=3cbc17db53cfac395246 2017-09-10 21:25:12 ProcessBlock: ORPHAN BLOCK, prev=4ab6bb39632a867f3dfb 2017-09-10 21:25:14 ProcessBlock: ORPHAN BLOCK, prev=fdd9df756e73c7a65b02 2017-09-10 21:25:14 ProcessBlock: ORPHAN BLOCK, prev=7a9c13ab610f14d7f177 Do these belong to anybody? Now granted I am still allowing the older clients on the chain until Sept 15. After then I expect to see less and less of this type of thing. BTW the Block Explorer is now on the right chain. But for the next 2 weeks we need to be vigilant. If you do NOT match the BE then either you or it is wrong. If that is the case then double check your block vs the checkpoint block. If you are wrong, best to remove turn off your wallet and get right..

Apparently I'm on the right chain comparing the txids to the blocks from Tranz... and I've updated to 2.0.

These are mine. They occured after the upgrade to version 2.0. I'm running a self compiled version on ubuntu linux 14.04.5 LTO. I'm on block 5655511 at this time, and it seems to be the right chain. I'm running my stake over a VPN, perhaps the time lag could cause issues?

Nice to see licensed blockchain will open it's doors for investors gambling industry is growing rapidly. I always like to invest in gambling casino because being on the house side give us more opportunities to make huge profit so that I will keep eye on this thread.

Blocks coming in fast and furious! We are only 8,500 blocks away from the first part of the fork.
So far the network seems to be hold together just fine.. Does anyone see anything different?
