Looks like we're good now.

@sakr Please try restarting the client.

[sakr]

I get this error after upgrading to the latest version:

"errors" : "Warning: Displayed transactions may not be correct! You may need to upgrade, or other nodes may need to upgrade."

Any clue?

After the fork happened there have been two pools (http://panda-mine.us and http://panda.moonishere.com) keeping the wrong fork alive which causes disagreement between the clients.

I've already messaged them about it. As long as they keep building the wrong blockchain, it will probably stay like that.

Edit:

I've pushed an update (https://github.com/pandacoin-official/pandacoin/commit/ba144ba7) for the wallet. If you're running the client from the command line you can just add -disablesafemode in order to do transactions.

Looks like we're good now.

@sakr Please try restarting the client.

Thanks, that fixed my issue!

It appears as if mintpal is still stuck in safe mode, or they are on the wrong fork.

I've contacted them about the update 2 days ago so I'm assuming that their wallets should be fine.

First make sure you're using version 1.5.4.

You can also try removing the old blockchain and use http://bamboohouse.info/pandacoin.conf as pandacoin.conf.

Got a reply from mintpal. They are on the right chain.

Good to see some positive movement at long last, not just for PND but all the billioncoins that have been having such a tough time lately (KARM, PENG hell even PANDA).

The buy support seems to be stabilising too, not seeing the usual big dumps back down after every rise so it appears the multipool/fork is doing it's job!

[ceslick]

Finally got rid of the PND's...

Updated my wallet!  
Hey I have been using this for Dogecoin paper wallets and bulk wallets site and love it..  Looks like it wouldn't be to tough to update it for Pandacoin anyone good at this sort of dev effort?
https://github.com/pointbiz/bitaddress.org  is the repository  http://dogeaddress.com/  dogecoin implementation   any tools options websites added to Pandacoin add visibility as well as usefulness and therfore market demand.  Well actually we would probably use this like Dogecoin did   https://github.com/litecoin-project/liteaddress.org

We have one now, albeit my Photoshop skillz suck balls. The wallets themselves seem to be working so give it a shot and let me know if you have any issues. I'm open to any and all designs for the paper wallet. I was thinking of maybe offering a few choices the user could print off instead of just the one static image (which sucks btw - but does the job nonetheless). Anyway, the URL for the paper wallet is: http://pndaddress.org

The price is raising now ! Multipool is great to keep the steady increase of PND price, Good job !

Wow awesome!   I think that link belongs on our page1 too

I created pandacoin p2pool on my home server. http://dr-nona.office-on-the.net:9444
When I tried these sources: https://github.com/pandacoin-official/p2pool-rav
I have found that they do not work.
Changed it a little.
Download sources:

Code:

git clone https://github.com/pandacoin-official/p2pool-rav p2pool-pnd

Then in ~/p2pool-pnd/p2pool/networks.py completely replace pandacoin description into this:

Code:

    pandacoin=math.Object(
        PARENT=networks.nets['pandacoin'],
        SHARE_PERIOD=10, # seconds target spacing
        CHAIN_LENGTH=20*60*60//10, # shares
        REAL_CHAIN_LENGTH=20*60*60//10, # shares
        TARGET_LOOKBEHIND=200, # shares coinbase maturity
        SPREAD=30, # blocks
        IDENTIFIER='e40ef614eeebb383'.decode('hex'),
        PREFIX='502f757a499bf601'.decode('hex'),
        P2P_PORT=8334,
        MIN_TARGET=0,
        MAX_TARGET=2**256//2**20 - 1,
        PERSIST=False,
        WORKER_PORT=9444,
        BOOTSTRAP_ADDRS='dr-nona.office-on-the.net'.split(' '),
        ANNOUNCE_CHANNEL='#p2pool-sawa',
        VERSION_CHECK=lambda v: True,
    ),

and in ~/p2pool-pnd/p2pool/bitcoin/networks.py replace on this:

Code:

    pandacoin=math.Object(
        P2P_PREFIX='c0c0c0c0'.decode('hex'),
        P2P_PORT=22445,
        ADDRESS_VERSION=55,
        RPC_PORT=22444,
        RPC_CHECK=defer.inlineCallbacks(lambda bitcoind: defer.returnValue(
            'pandacoinaddress' in (yield bitcoind.rpc_help()) and
            not (yield bitcoind.rpc_getinfo())['testnet']
        )),
        SUBSIDY_FUNC=lambda height: 10000*100000000,
        POW_FUNC=lambda data: pack.IntType(256).unpack(__import__('ltc_scrypt').getPoWHash(data)),
        BLOCK_PERIOD=60, # s
        SYMBOL='PND',
        CONF_FILE_FUNC=lambda: os.path.join(os.path.join(os.environ['APPDATA'], 'PandaCoin') if platform.system() == 'Windows' else os.path.expanduser('~/Library/Application Support/PandaCoin/') if platform.system() == 'Darwin' else os.path.expanduser('~/.pandacoin'), 'pandacoin.conf'),
        BLOCK_EXPLORER_URL_PREFIX='http://pnd.showed.us/block/',
        ADDRESS_EXPLORER_URL_PREFIX='http://pnd.showed.us/address/',
        TX_EXPLORER_URL_PREFIX='http://pnd.showed.us/tx/',
        SANE_TARGET_RANGE=(2**256//1000000000 - 1, 2**256//1000 - 1),
        DUMB_SCRYPT_DIFF=2**16,
        DUST_THRESHOLD=1e8,
    ),

And it works, you can check out.
The question is, what are the correct parameters to specify to connect my pool to others:

Code:

         IDENTIFIER = 'e40ef614eeebb383'. Decode ('hex'),
         PREFIX = '502f757a499bf601 '. Decode (' hex '),

Parameters in the source on the github cause an error.

Thanks.
Everybody can mine in my pool http://dr-nona.office-on-the.net:9444 or connect your pool to my taking these settings.
When it's hard to mine other coins I switch to my pool for mining pandacoin.
I like this cute animal

Ever since the launch of the multipool, pnd has been climbing up steadily. It was a great idea, thanks for reviving this coin guys

Thank you. The repo was still in draft and I decided to stop committing to it because of the random block reward.

Now that we have a static reward everything should be fine regarding p2pool.

Also see https://github.com/Rav3nPL/p2pool-rav/pull/62.

As for IDENTIFIER and PREFIX: They do not need to be the same, as long as the values are of 19 numbers converted into hex, p2pool will function correctly.

The price is raising now ! Multipool is great to keep the steady increase of PND price, Good job !

things look really good for pnd, remember that multipool is doge friendly

[Lowkek]

Any news on when the logo is getting changed?

PND was always friendly towards Doge, as the Coin was originally made by true Shibes.

18 lit now and no more mine and dumpers to take us straight back down.  

Hopefully we'll soon be trading against BTC again!

Edit:  back down to 11. Guess I spoke too soon...
