WALLET SYNCING FIX
I have been having the same problem as many other people here where the wallet won't sync past block 8786. I have tried all of the fixes posted here and none worked. I did the following and my wallet is now working perfectly.
If you go to Help->Debug Window->Console in your wallet and type "getpeerinfo" you will get a list of all the nodes your wallet is connected to. This is where the wallet gets the blockchain info from. For each entry look at the "startingheight" number, this shows what block that particular node thinks we are on.
If you have lots of nodes that say: "startingheight" : 8786, or some other number in the 8000s then your wallet is going to get confused as it is getting conflicting information.
I simply went through and listed all the nodes that were showing the correct block number. (as of writing we are on 9658)
Now you want to stop your wallet from automatically searching for nodes to connect to, so it won't find and connect to these 'bad' nodes - this is done by using "connect=IP" instead of "addnode=IP".
So, to get your wallet working do exactly the following:
1) Shut down the wallet completely.
2) Go to C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\cleanwatercoin.
3) Delete everything EXCEPT wallet.dat and cleanwatercoin.conf.
4) Open cleanwatercoin.conf and delete everything then paste in the following and save.
connect=176.14.88.234
connect=107.170.217.4
connect=67.82.168.57
connect=97.102.24.119
connect=188.226.199.223
connect=water.suprnova.cc
5) Restart the wallet.
Your wallet will now download the blockchain ONLY from those 'good' nodes that are specified. This will take a little while, be patient but it should fully sync eventually.
Please post other 'good' nodes that you find so they can be added to the conf file in future.
Please let me know if this worked for you.
Thanks for this info, but it didn't work for me. is here someone who can help me STEP BY STEP with syncing my wallet. I tried all the solutions above and still it doesn't work for me, also placed the .conf file in the roaming folder. I really need some help problem solved!!!! How? Place your solution here and help others  |

Thanks for this info, but it didn't work for me. Where did you put the .conf file? It must be placed in the C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\cleanwatercoin\ folder. Also, make sure it is a .conf file not a .txt file. Right click the file and click Properties, if it doesn't say "Type of File: CONF File (.conf)" it won't work. Yep, got it to work in the end by putting it in C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\cleanwatercoin\ folder. The reason I didn't put there in the first place was because, the step 3 above assumes it to be there but mine wasn't, so I left mine where it was. |

It's nice to see the network hash rate is slowly increasing, however everyone seems to be using water.suprnova.cc and when I last looked they accounted for about 90% of the network hash. This is very bad as it potentially leaves WATER open to a 51% attack (although I'm sure the lovely people at Suprnova wouldn't dream of doing so.) More importantly this could lessen confidence in the coin even if there is the potential for this to happen. The last thing we need at this point is more problems so we need to spread the hash around some other pools, no one pool should have over 50% of the network hash power. Now I know that I gave suprnova a plug a few posts back and they are very good, but there are other pools out there and we need to use them!  |

Hi crypto_ripper their "double spend" was more likely due to them being on the wrong wallet rather than a 51% attack. As my last post explains, the only entity that could have conceivably carried out such an attack is the suprnova pool which I don't think is likely. My last post also explains how the possibility of a 51% attack can be avoided. |

Speaking of Suprnova, as being the THE most reliable pool, it would be nice to see more people donating to them. They are running their pool with no fees after all, and still have costs they have to take care of. |

Has it been determined if the coin was forked, or problems due to dev error, or both? Safe to jump into the water now?

The water2x.txt shows it was a miner in China. They were likely on the wrong fork and ptopex security didn't catch it quickly enough. |

Hi friendly, all issues have now been fixed, the coin was forked at block 8500 and a new wallet was released. Everything should work fine if you use the latest wallet release, download link in first post. |

UPDATED CLEANWATERCOIN.CONF FILE I ran my wallet without a .conf file just to check and it seems there are still wallets out there broadcasting the wrong blockchain so make sure you have a .conf file in your C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\cleanwatercoin\ folder! I have found a few more 'good' nodes, here is my current .conf file: connect=176.14.88.234 connect=107.170.217.4 connect=67.82.168.57 connect=97.102.24.119 connect=188.226.199.223 connect=water.suprnova.cc connect=95.85.45.65 connect=107.170.209.91 connect=173.209.34.2 connect=68.168.113.90 If you have found this, and my previous posts helpful please donate BTC to 1ABEKchWP3CjxbD9aKPoYX2ybp52iH5Kk - Any donations will be used to vote at MintPal to get us listed.
