[ANN][GRA] Graincoin - New PoW/PoS coin | Fast, secure | Version 1.5 Released!

[Jollyburner]

one thing ppl wondering is now that we grew the chain longer, do we need the special wallet fix still? or will the old 1.1 sync up now?

also one guy cant get his PoS to generate stakes, megafix

I duno why seems hes doing all the right stuff.

interesting.. everything is slowly moving back from stake.. to balance...

not sure.. why or how though

It does this for me when it is calculating interest on those particular coins

Jollyburner, thanks a lot for community support. Yes I will release a new client with new and latest checkpoints.

I will do it once most people are on the right blockchain.

Both my wallets now say block 43802

yes I think wat happens is if you didn't log in for awhile a lot (or all) of your coins go through the stake generating process. I saw it earlier when I reloaded my wallet, a lot of my balance went into stake, then all moved over to balance.

if your coins show up in stake its just cause they are generating stakes for you for a bit, then they hop back into your balance.

Yes this is correct... now it is 43805

As i just loaded 1.1 and dint do anything else.. i think that seems to be enough to sync to the right chain

This is the pos block. When a pos block generated, it took those coins in the balance, that contributed to the generation of this block (by its "coin-day"), it remove their coin-days (reset to 0), then put them in "stake" (thus subtract from your balance), also add some "interests" to the "stake" (so the amount in "stake" will be greater than what is subtracted from the "balance"). The coins in "stake" will then "mature" as it did in the PoW mined blocks. After they are "matured", the total will be moved back to "balance", so they can be spent.

Yes 1.1 should work now. In case you stuck at the old chain, you need to remove the blockchain files and sync from scratch, and it should work.

To remove the blockchain files, go to conf dir (AppData/Roaming/Grain), make a backup of wallet.dat, remove everything in the dir EXCEPT wallet.dat and grain.conf if you have, again DO NOT remove wallet.dat. Then start the qt client, you should start sync from scratch.

I have a question about how the coin calculates its changing reward structure.

if

mining payout will be halved every 90 days (259200 blocks)

when I look at blockchain its giving blocks # to PoS, so does this mean PoS blocks count towards this? or is it calculating it independently, and how to see when this change is approaching? (reward halved to 512-1024 grains)

also does this affect total coins generated in the same way? ( I assume not)

[damnation]

question what is the current difficulty?

2 minutes ago it was 0.3... now its 0.0003.. thats quite a drop

*edit* its gone back to 0.36 a minute later.. i wonder if my wallet is as confused as i am ..

No, the 0.0003 is the PoS diff you see. PoW diff does not go that low.
If you have a miner running (such as cgminer), it displays only the PoW diff.

The halves apply only to PoW blocks. The PoS block is calculated from "coin-day" you have and is fixed at 5% annual rate, it won't be halved.

damn i wish the PoS worked for me..

[suncoastbuddy]

damn i wish the PoS worked for me..

Give it time, it will.  I thought mine wasn't working and then I got a nice xmas present yesterday

How long did you have to wait?

[damnation]

could some one point me towards a GRA pool...

*edit* solo at 400Kh/s aint working.. my old pool altminer seems down

I am not sure when forkpool will be fixed but http://gra.forkpool.com/ is the pool I was using before.

right now its in maintenance mode but will probly get fixed soon.

Still mining at Forkpool but the website is in maintenance mode.

so is there any way to know how many PoW blocks are currently generated? so we know when it will half? I know its a ways off im jw how it all works.

if I look at block then its only saying the total between both types.

also wow @ difficulty 1.3 right now

where is the mining? some solo guys?
