You guys see the news update for 1billionhex? Development went underground until UK laws on crypto straightened out.

Hallo i have a problem with the wallet when i start he say reading blockerror.
i have wallet version 1.3.4.1
what can i do

CoinMine.pw CGA daemon is back to the rails (longest chain).
http://www.coinmine.pw/poolinfo.php?coinid=39
Coin chain is very unstable. Forking almost every 2-3 days. Mine at your own risk.

If you're on Windows, go to C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Roaming\Cryptographicanomaly

Make a backup-copy of wallet.dat. Store it to a secure place!  This is just in case, something goes wrong (You should backup this file from time to time anyway).
Then delete everything in that folder - except wallet.dat.

Restart the CGA-wallet and wait for it to sync to the blockchain again. Report back here, if that helped.

Since we have new P2Pools (see the node-scanner: http://5.45.105.66:8080):

Important INFO

... to the pool-operator of the Slovenian-one - http://193.95.253.142:23932/static/ - Check your daemon! It seems as if you are on the wrong chain.
... to the US-one  - http://162.243.6.127:23932/static/ - You are on a third chain. That one is wrong, too.

Make sure you don't fork, as that is really annoying for us all.
Don't let people lose their coins by mining on your pool. Thanks.
Edit: Additionally open the P2Pool-ports on your server, so your nodes can connect to the other ones and exchange the information faster.

See here for the correct block-height: http://cga.thedigitalmint.org/ Update: --> Sometimes they are much behind P2Pool. Seems as if they are too slow, to keep the pace with P2Pools power of solving blocks.
The latest block-number should be +200698 at the time of writing (updated), like it is here http://5.45.105.66:23932/static/ and here http://149.210.168.71:23932/static/ (link "Last blocks"). The pool-rate is ~66 MH/sec. at the time of writing (updated). See this pool, too, in order to determine the correct chain: http://www.coinmine.pw/poolinfo.php?coinid=39 -- at the moment lots of orphans (edit: closed).

Edit 2: Please add the P2Pool-nodes to your cryptographicanomaly.conf by adding
addnode=149.210.168.71
addnode=5.45.105.66

and resync/redownload the blockchain.

http://www.coinwarz.com is also pointing to the wrong chain.  It pushed CGA to number 1 causing the network hash rate on the correct chain to skyrocket to over 410MH/s but coinwarz shows 44MH.

yeah it's a real pain in the ass.

Appears http://www.coinmine.pw/poolinfo.php?coinid=39 just forked from Digital Mint.  coinmine is throwing a bunch of orphan blocks.

all of my pools with CGA are still on track. have to baby sit them a bit too much.

Have you set the P2Pool-nodes as addnodes in the cryptographicanomaly.conf, so that your pool can keep in sync with them? The number of orphans seems to be odd.

[niceman]

Sorry, but CGA will be removed from CoinMine. I have tried to babysit this coin almost 2 months, but it don't have any sense now. Looks like, even developer orphaned this coin already.

[brokedummy]

I am in the process of moving between places. If it seems like I am MIA, it is because I don't have internet set up at the new place yet. I will try my best to get back online ASAP.

Hope to see you online again soon. Still seem to be forking regularly.

Hi guys. You may've noticed that http://cga.p2p.0x0a.nl:23932 (http://149.210.168.71:23932) is currently unreachable. During planned maintenance by my VPS provider, apparently some 'incident' occurred with the storageserver at 22:14 UTC, as they put it. The result is that the 0x0a p2pool server is down. They're working on it but as I can't do anything to help them along, I'm forced to sit back and wait. I'll let you know as soon as I know more (which hopefully will just be that it's back up again).

Update @23:44 UTC: back up again, but no details as to what happened yet, so am holding my breath (not literally though). Looks like many miners didn't lose their connection somehow.

Update @01:20 UTC: The provider has officially informed me that things are back the way they should be. The incident lasted from 22:14 to 23:38 UTC and was confined to the storageserver, hence http://cga.p2p.0x0a.nl:23932 could still be reached partially.

Important to all miners AND pool-operators

unfortunately I've taken CGA off a couple of my pools. While I hate to turn off a profitable coin, as it often is. Between forking chains at least once or twice a week and then the exchanges having the coin frozen, it's just too much hassle...

Usually the longest blockchain wins (that one with the highest block count).
Just sent some CGA to Swisscex via the P2Pool-blockchain and they arrived without error.

FYI - this is the market, if you want to trade there:
https://www.swisscex.com/market/CGA_BTC

But we should really make clear, what is the situation. It is really more than annoying with nearly everyone on their own chain. Even the P2Pool-nodes are on three different chains ...
