Please keep Windows wallets offline for the time being.
Chainz is now reporting that 0.10.0 has the majority of the network.
They may not be seeing all of the 0.9.5 nodes, but we can use this as a benchmark for now.

I don't think this should be isolated to miners. I believe all transactions on v0.9.5 after block 600k will be questionable at best, on a forked chain at worst. I would advise saving your wallet.dat and waiting for a v0.10 binary to become available.

I agree. Its a good time to step back.
Exchanges have been notified. I reached out to known pools in the OP; I'm sure I missed some, so please help with this by contacting your favorite pool and asking them to update to 0.1.0.

ipoMiner has updated to v0.1.0 now. Some form of proactive notice for pools and exchanges would have been nice...

There's definitely a fork that has happened at or around block 600k.

Forked happened at 600147 ... are all the block explorers correct at this time? 

thanks,

Thanks everyone for the great community response -- closing 0.9.5 wallets and temporarily reducing network hash as pools check to ensure they are on 0.1.0.

BW & I appreciate it. Lets sustain this response through the weekend. We just need a little time. It's all going to be fine, because we all care about Uno, and when something breaks we respond and fix it.   When this is done, we'll look back and learn, and figure out how we can do this better.

Hi Richie,
These explorers are correct. I checked them all moments ago, and they concur:
http://chainz.cryptoid.info/uno

http://insight-uno.cryptap.us/

http://blocktree.io/e/UNO

http://explorer.coinpayments.net/index.php?chain=19

 https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/BlockExplorer

[FallingKnife]

The following pools confirm they are on 0.10:

http://crypticzero.com/uno/

http://un.ispace.co.uk/

Multipool.us

ipominer.com

Cryptopia.co.nz pool is displaying the correct block in their explorer, so probably fine.

It would be ok to begin mining the above pools. I'll mention more as I receive confirmation.

Others:

Genesis-mining has responded and is investigating
Coinpayments.net is investigating; their explorer is correct, so they are probably ok.
Bittrex is investigating
Cryptsy is investigating

[robox]

cool.. can you merge mine @ http://crypticzero.com/ ?

Which way was the decision for auxpow decided?  As I was reading thru the thread about it, but I don't really have time to read thru countless pages past the 10 I already read thru about it that contained many different ideas for how auxpow should be implemented.  I just need to know which way the auxpow setup is currently functioning so I can make use of it with all the stuff I am currently working like mad to configure/build.

[Blakesss]

I don't want to screw up my old wallet by updating. I'm just going to take these steps... My plan is to wait for a new Windows wallet to be compiled, copy my existing wallet.dat file, install the new wallet, paste old wallet into new unobtanium wallet file. Are those the steps to get into the .0.1.0 fork?

Yeah we discussed many ideas, the decision was made to go with the traditional route, same/similar to what namecoin and others are doing.

Sounds reasonably similar to what I intend to do once we have a windows binary.

[sa_ddam213]

Just double checked. All Cryptopia wallets are on the correct version.

Exchange, Explorer and Pool good to go

Just with bitcoin or with all sha-256 coins?

I *think* just Bitcoin - at least that's what was decided. Wether the implementation is really Bitcoin specific, or would also allow other sha-256 coins I do not know.

You could try tweeting @BryceWeiner about it if you're curious.

[TogoMan]

Big mistake by devs. UNO price is crashing down @ cryptsy. UNO the next shitcoin?

I'm betting Mr. "Brand new" is buying 

[electricretard]

Can you add a download link for the new wallet (win) for the slow children like me who don't know how to build one

Thanks for taking the time to answer.

That should work. Do yourself a favor and make a backup of everything before you overwrite, especially wallet.dat. As long as you don't have any transactions after block 600k you should be fine.

My understanding is that you should be able to merge mine UNO with any coin that uses SHA256 as POW. But pools running BTC will probably dominate the difficulty.

Can someone please help with this problem. I sent 24.9752133 UNO from Cryptsy to my UNO wallet (v0.9.5.9-thermoremnant) address: ufx5KUWgy7AR5kpjeJJRPuQFX8QJ9PfFuE

This transaction is showing in the block chain in block #600475 (https://chainz.cryptoid.info/uno/block.dws?600475.htm)

This transaction is not showing up in my wallet which is currently showing in sync up to block #600731

Can someone please explain what may have happened and why this transaction appears lost?
