Could it be the chef admin opened it's own exchange on https://btcpop.co/ ?

Be careful with the new one, it must be much work with such a big bunch of coins. One main advantage for me is the changeable deposit-adresses.

maybe i'v missed smth here, but how am i supposed to use -datadir with 2.1.0 wallet ?
it doesn't seem to comply, win7-64.
same shit in the new NYC wallet as if it's drawn from similar codebase.
older versions just fine

Example:

Code:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Crypto\mintcoin-qt.exe" -datadir=d:\MINT_Data

Got it?

yep, doesn't work with 2.1.0, actually it's not about datadir,
it doesn't see any cmd line parameter at launch.
2.0.2.0 no problem

P.S. right now only 2 wallets with that behavior out of approx 110:
MINT 2.1.0, and NYC 1.3.1.17
maybe it's MS shit after some updates, yet only 2 of 110

I have a shortcut on my Windows 10 desktop with this command line and it works like a charm :-)

It woks on my Windows 10 box to redirect the datadir from the default location.

"C:\Program Files (x86)\MintCoin\mintcoin-qt.exe" -datadir=D:\Data\MintCoin\

The above shortcut works fine for my Win7 64bit and always has worked.

[Trimegistus]

"C:\Program Files (x86)\MintCoin\mintcoin-qt.exe" -datadir=D:\Data\MintCoin\

The above shortcut works fine for my Win7 64bit and always has worked.

I can also confirm that; the shortcut works flawlessly on Win 7 x64.

you can't be that blind people, original MintCoin-Qt.exe is 22,353,920,
the one in the zip is 8,428,482, repacked on Oct 28.
not clean, simply encrypted.
devs, secure your github like NYC team has done...

desynct,
YOU ARE RIGHT - the github qt for 2.1.0 has been corrupted.
The scans I performed must have been useless because the wallet is encrypted.  I should have tested further by executing the wallet in an offline VM. I just wasn't motivated enough to look deeper.

Nice work by the way catching this!!  

Something like this can kill a coin if not taken care of quickly.

Where are you guys getting your download links from? Yours is different than the one I posted above... Take at look at the URLs:
https://github.com/MintcoinCommunity/Mintcoin-Desktop-Wallet/releases/download/v2.1.0-beta1/MintCoin-2.1.0-beta1-win32.zip

Nevermind, I see the link I posted is for the beta1, didn't realize there was a newer non-beta one.

What exactly to you mean by corrupted?

Is the 2.1.0 wallet currently available infected with some kind of malware?

Luckily, I'm running the 22,353,920 bytes file :-)

OK, issue one, some of the confusion is that v2.0.2 (from 2016?) on page one of this thread is old and scans as a threat, not necessarily a valid threat, possibly bitcoin miner type hits.  A version that should NOT be linked in the opening post on the official thread for Mintcoin.  Regardless, the 2.0.2 is not the issue at hand.

Next issue, two, the links posted going back the last 5 or so posts for (MintCoin-2.1.0-win32.zip) has a MintCoin-Qt.exe that was updated on github on October 28, 2018 with an incorrect size file of 8,428,482 which is likely a virus.  This repository should be taken down immediately (if possible).
Many thanks to desynct for catching this.

Housekeeping note; I'm editing all links I posted recently to the corrupted file and "killing" the link for security purposes, but otherwise leaving it intact to cut down on future confusion.

Thanks for catching this guys!

I'd say stick with the 2.1.0-beta1 release then. I've been running it for months with no issues (not sure what changed between beta1 and non-beta release) and it seems to be clean.

[Wh1teKn1ght]

you guys should report the issue on the MintCoinCommunity github (https://github.com/MintcoinCommunity/Mintcoin-Desktop-Wallet/issues). This way you can be sure that the devs will see the issue and hopefully resolve it as quickly as possible.
