Idena is the first Proof-of-Person Blockchain

[Saisher]

Why it is that I'm only getting one peer sometimes none at all and sometimes I got up to ten peers other sometimes even though I have a very good internet connection, what must be done to maintain those nodes, I have a bad feeling for things when the validation happens again.

I had the same problems with built-in node. Never got more than 5-6 connections. Then I decided that is better to go on VPS rather than running the node locally. There I have 17-18 connections all the time, and I don't need to keep my PC on 24/7.

If you still want to run the node locally, you should have a look in here: https://idena.io/?view=guide#guide-issues-1

That's interesting but I don't have knowledge on running IDENA in a vps can you please post instructions here on how you run IDENA in VPS and what is the monthly cost and what is the name of the VPS network that you are using to run IDENA there.

I have moved my VPS guide to the website in order to stay auto-updated with every once and a while node versions...

Well its easier just to put nodekey on something like gdrive if you use gmail. Then from vps download it and replace existing one.

Someone has made a withdrawal of ~41k DNA recently. So far this is a record.

Someone has made a withdrawal of ~41k DNA recently. So far this is a record.

Maybe someone from the team or a very earlier miner.

[Pofick]

No, it was rather a buyer, because he has made a withdrawal of DNA he bought on the exchange. Probably investor (newcomer) who don't want to bother with mining.

[iHodler]

No, it was rather a buyer, because he has made a withdrawal of DNA he bought on the exchange. Probably investor (newcomer) who don't want to bother with mining.

I see. With "withdrawal" I thought you mean, from a bigger wallet to exchange, but it seems I misunderstood.

Maybe he is also a miner and he wants as much as he can get until it will take off. Either way is a good thing for DNA.

Just make sure that client tells you "Wait for validation" and you can also check on explorer if you have 3 submittetd flips...
It happened to me also, but I never had problems if "Wait for validation" is presented...

I like your review. It looks like it is objective because you showed pros and cons of this coins and not just advantages.

Yes. It sometimes happens to me too.

To make sure you can also check explorer:
f.e:
https://scan.idena.io/identity?identity=0x06723da8fc2c01a09f489cf7bf2067227d2deec3#flips



You can see 3 new flips created today.

I would recommend to do it via TeamViewer with a person you know and is willing to help you. Maybe someone from the team if they have the time.

Me too, but since I am not part of the team, I understand the guy.

That's why I've said he can ask a team member to help him, of course if he trust the team.

I've tried also via Telegram, step-by-step, with screenshots, but with no success unfortunately.
