Hey folks,

Quick one tonight.

I'm speaking to a journalist and trying to give them a more concise list of not why Heavycoin is *good* but why Heavycoin may be *interesting* for them.

Here's a quick list, if anyone would like to add, remove or elaborate on these points please share - miners particularly I would really appreciate your feedback:

- Standard block time for new generation alts @ ~2mins

- "ASIC resistant" looks good and looks like it will hold up against the new wave of scrypt & x11 ASIC's that are being released on the market.

- voting has been an interesting experiment, we're about one third of the way through the second phase right now

- With recent news of Dogecoin foundation problems, Flutter coin devs leaving the project, Mintpal vericoin hacking etc - we could be accused of being a little boring by these standards - we are in a "settling in" phase and maybe we are a little boring at the moment, but everything is stable and kicking along as far as I can see.

- 51BTC's promotion is underway, transaction volume in the first five days of this promotion is in the area of 2,000,000HVC


Any thoughts you guys would like to share would be welcome.

Cheers,
M

+ low power consumption, less heat, saving hardware.. it's important during summer

Please fix block explorer.

Please fix block explorer.

Hey fredeq,

You mean heavychain.info yeah? I didn't realise they were down until you pointed it out.

Let me reach out to them and see if they can let us know what's happening.

Block reward changed yesterday at block 93600 from 503 to 449.
My wallet display ''avereged 3444 votes'' and 42tx.com display ''4.9 Hours until the next reward'' .
Reward should change every 5 days or 3600 blocks. Is this too early?

regarding this, wallet just reset counting all is good on blockchain and there is no reward change. It's just a wallet display bug.

Thank you. I could use any other API out there but there are none.

Hey man,

No worries - I've reached out to heavycoin.info and waiting to hear back from them.

I set up an open node on the network which could possibly work as a back up for us (http://hvcstats.com) - out of curiosity, what are the api calls that you need? I'm curious to see if I can get them working on this server.

Getdifficulty and blockcount mainly. Block reward would be great too.

Has anyone been able to withdraw BTC from the 51BTC exchange? I traded some HVC there at the end of June and have been trying unsuccessfully to withdraw my BTC from there since then. I get all their other emails, just not the withdrawal confirmation email. Support is no help, they just say to check my confirmation email (which I never get).

Hey man,

I believe I have those covered on http://www.hvcstats.com already - feel free to reference them:

Getdifficulty:

blockcount:
http://hvcstats.com/getblockcount

Block reward:

I'm looking in to making it a full blown block explorer, but bare with me.

@Dallski - that's wierd - would you like to PM me your message to their support? I'm talking to the guys via BitMessage and would be happy to help you figure this out if I can.

Returns an estimate of how long until the block reward votes will be tallied (human readable). -Says block change in 19.9 Hours

Not correct. As I mentioned in posts before, block reward will change at block 97200 because last block reward change was at block 93600. That is in ~ 80minutes... So your count is wrong and also wallet count is wrong...

Hey folks,

I don't want to leave this just hanging out there - Dallski has contacted me and we're going to approach 51BTC together, I'll let Dallski get back to us all to confirm how this worked out.

Hey asdf55,

Apologies, I think I missed the meaning of your earlier posts.

Just to let you know, I'm not one of the coin devs but if we identify a legit issue with the wallet I can make sure they take a look at it.

http://hvcstats.com = basically a hosted version of the HVC wallet to expose the API, so if the problem exists with the wallet it'll show up there also.

Could you try explaining the problem and how you have found the potential fault? Just pure maths from the block time, or is there a third party reference we should be looking at?

I took a quick look at these two calls:
http://hvcstats.com/getnextrewardwhensec
http://hvcstats.com/getnextrewardwhenstr

The seconds that the first call returns seem to agree with the second call, so I don't believe that there is a problem converting the seconds to a human readable format.

But also (and I haven't check this in detail) when I looked at http://hvcstats.com/getnextrewardwhensec twice over five minutes it *seemed* like it gained 1000 seconds - not verified, just something I think I noticed.

Does anyone else have an opinion, or otherwise think they can see an issue? If we can identify that there is a problem and how exactly to see it I know it will save the devs a bunch of time debugging the code.

Cheers,
M


EDIT: try this:
- open http://hvcstats.com/getnextrewardwhensec
- wait five minutes, then refresh - it seems like it does add 1000 seconds - is there an explanation or is there a fault here?

http://hvcstats.com/getnextrewardwhensec
http://hvcstats.com/getnextrewardwhenstr

those are not correct, it displays block reward change in about 3hrs from now, but it will not change in 3hrs, because block change was yesterday.

Let me try to explain on this example:

We are now at block ~97860
Block reward changed yestarday at block 97200 (next block reward change is at block 97200+3600=100800)
So instead  ’’avereged 3524’’ should stand  ’’avereged 660’’ (97860-97200)
Insead of  ’’ When: 3,0 hours’’ should stand  ’’When:4,08 days  ’’ (3600blocks-660blocks=>2940blocks *2minperblock=>5880min /60minper hour=>98hours/24hperday=>4,08days)

Reference for previous block changes
http://hvc.42tx.com/block/97200
http://hvc.42tx.com/block/97201

3600 blocks before that
http://hvc.42tx.com/block/93600

3600 blocks before that
http://hvc.42tx.com/block/90000
http://hvc.42tx.com/block/90001

And also there is a bug in 42tx block explorer, it could not display some blocks. for example block change at 86400 and some block before and after that so we need a working block explorer asap.

Hey asdf55,

Thanks for the info, you are right, something is happening.

I've been watching the "when" number on my wallet tonight and it is bouncing up and down as far as I can see, not sure of the exact behaviour yet, but something is definitely happening. If anyone has any ideas where this is happening in the code, or just logically what may be going on I'm sure we'd all like to hear ideas.

RE: we need block explorers - I couldn't agree more.

I'm going to continue to look in to beefing up hvcstats.com to be a full block explorer, but if anyone has any ideas or information on how to get this done quickly, or interested in setting up their own block explorer, please do post here or PM me.

Cheers,
M
