Just replace your Blocks folder with the new one!

so would I add copy the contents of both block folders into one?  I used the latest block folder with the database folder and peers.dat from the other now the wallets giving me a little warning that I need to update?

I'll let you kow if it starts syncing.   thanks a bunch

If we are to switch to X11 then we'd have to switch to a new blockchain which will need all coins to be Swapped to AstroCoin V2 is everyone ready for that?

[...]

why not, but how we will manage the coin-swap?
Maybe through an exchange or how is it usually managed?

I have a script and also can be done through an exchange.

Looks like we can now initiate the coinswap! Blockchain working again.

What about people who do not hear about the coin swap in time?

[Bitinator]

If i have coins in trade lets say coined up and say i go back out to the wilderness cuz  live in alaska. I might miss the coinswap. If my coins are @ coinedup during the coinswap will it be automatic? Dont get me wrong im all for x11 sounds great for mining, however what if i miss the coinswap and then all my current astros are worthless or i lose coins in the process. Im not sure how this will work because ive never done it before

We are currently doing this for many coins so you should be feeling fine about it.

Also yes if you leave your coins at Coinedup they will automatically get swapped.

thanks soopy now im not worried....TO DA MOOOOONNNNN!!!!

Hi,
ok great so we have to decide what is the nicer option.
I think doing this through an exchange is better or does
the script automatically swap the coins in your wallet ( i guess not?^^).
Maybe we should make a deadline which is long enough (2 weeks or 4 weeks
or i dont know..), therefore it could be a good idea to make
a website before, so that there is a location, which is up to date
and which informs you about as example the coin-swap deadline.

And what is planned with the POS-Modus, as i remembering you
planned a POW/POS Hybrid, which is a fine idea, i think
setting the stake interest should be not too high (a small
percentage should be enough, so that is interesting enough
for new buyers and not only for the stake holders).

lets see what the rest of the community is saying

best regards

I'm confused about why there needs to be a coin swap. Can't you just include both algorithms in the client, and switch them past block X?

(Have a look at AndroidsToken to see how much of a headache a coin swap solution was.)

We are doing it smoothly at BEE mate , having both algorithms on the client is a much complicated process and I've tried that before and will need a complete client update.

True it's quite a headache but worth the trouble.

The exchange can help us with the swap where all the coins are sent to the exchange and swapped thereafter.

Has anyone been having problems syncing your wallets since yesterday.

Has anyone been having problems syncing your wallets since yesterday.

mine has always been 1-0 hours behind, but still works fine.... there should be a fix coming very shortly

if it's more than that behind someone posted a newer blockchain on here a few days ago... it helped me get mine past were it was stuck (a few weeks behind)

Im not sure if i understand it right, but means it that when you make a new client
with both algorithms, we dont need an exchange, just a client update so that
if someone just forgot about Astrocoin can restore them later?

[fonzerrellie]

Put all my astro's on coined up for the swap   lol might even buy a few of these cheap ones while I'm on the site
