Thanks. Is it maintaining synchronisation with the network.

Don't know about ocminer, but maxcoin-qt-0.9.3 is sync'ing OK here.

Brilliant news. Thanks for the feedback.

I don't know what ocminer means when he reports "very low hashrate," but both 1gh and dwarfpool are finding coins for me this morning at about 1/4 normal speed.

on suprnova there are only 3-4 miners which give very low hashrate, thats i meant.

Right now I'm using only one computer with a 260X, hash rate 160 MH/s, but if you will PM me with instructions for how to get on using cgminer-3.7.3 I'll try suprnova.

Its public for everyone:

you probably just have to change the URL of the Pool, everything else should stay the same.

So, Weblogin.Worker is just my payment address? *edited* Ah.  Never mind.  I see. It works like nuts2pools. Trying suprnova now...

MaxCoin 0.9.3.1 released

You can now download MaxCoin 0.9.3.1 from maxcoin.co.uk and the project GitHub repository. This release contains a fix for the wallet synchronisation issue and will change the target block time to 60s from block 635000. Updated branding and a new wallet security menu have also been added.

The release contains a Windows installer and source code. OSX is coming shortly.

A VirusTotal link has been provided here as, on occasion, Chrome will block downloads due to the IRC bootstrapping and mining code within MaxCoin. The problem is known and we're in contact with Google about possible solutions.

I have tested with one my wallet-daemon, and it hangs after restart. Other old wallets find blocks. This wallet hangs on last block.

Everybody else at MaxChat is reporting that it will sync after a short period of time. Please give it 20 minutes to find some initial connections whilst the majority of the network has yet to upgrade.

I have upgraded from 0.9.2 and successfuly synced from block 600,061 - old wallet was stuck there for 5 days - but now I see the following returned by getinfo command:

Code:

"errors" : "Warning: checkpoint on different blockchain fork, contact developers to resolve the issue"

I have not added any checkpoint reset (or ignore, whatever) to maxcoin.conf file but now I'm wondering if valid checkpoint was added after hard-fork point at all. Also, how many
valid checkpoints were added to Maxcoin by now? For reference, Bitcoin developers are adding checkpoints with every few wallet updates.

You're talking over my pay grade, but, I did

maxcoin-qt -reindex

last night using the intermediate fix version (maxcoin-qt-0.9.3) and all is good ever since.  The latest maxcoin-qt (-9.3.1) is performing flawlessly so far.

I do have

Encouraging! Congratulations to the developers and to those who did the footwork in trying out the new wallet. Shows you what a good, strong community can achieve. Thanks to all concerned!

According to people on Maxchat.info, Mac wallet is proved to work fine.
Please release it.

Amen, brother!

[Spoetnik]

worked fine for me
no commands in my .conf and no command line's like -reindex used

although i screwed up when i launched the upgrade windows wallet though..
i forgot my cmd-line had -reindex on the shortcut and i shut it off 1 second after loading
but it still made me re-index after turning it off and removing that from my cmd-line (which took forever re-syncing)

so guys BEFORE you run your wallet make sure you remove all those commands from your shortcuts or conf files

PS:
Bittrex market is still disabled

9.3.1 works perfect. Good job dev.

[ocminer]

Runs fine on suprnova now too, finding blocks

The application works but the dmg is broken. We're working on getting this fixed at the moment. It will be released as soon as it's easy to use - if we release it now we'll be inundated with people claiming that it's broken and asking us how to use it.

Here is solution for auto popup DMG. DMG should be read-only.
