November 2nd 2021

As some of you know, the LUX wallet currently has problems saving new data, and that has been a major problem for users. Wallets are not able to be re-opened after closing without manually deleting the old blockchain data and starting from scratch or syncing a backup/bootstrap. We are unable to update the bootstrap (due to this same problem), so the sync time takes longer to get your wallet synced up after a successful launch. On top of the major inconvenience to users, this also creates issues with chain stability. We have asked our devs to look at the problem from several different alternatives, from fixing the issue we are currently having to upgrading the codebase. The devs have been examining the problem and all options. We will keep you informed of what they are able to come up with. We apologize for the issues and appreciate your understanding.

RX2 ? Better than Mazda MX-2

[NotHatinJustTrollin]

I just visited your website, however I cannot find the road map of LUXCoin,

I think you need to add a roadmap to your website.

The list will be updated as soon as more confirm everything is ok to go!

120 blocks to go!

FYI, if your wallet got stuck at a block or you have any other issues with the fork, grab this bootstrap: http://luxcore.io/files/LUXblockChain.zip

Close your wallet, delete the blocks, chainstate, and stateLux folders and the peers.dat file in your LUX data directory and use the files from the bootstrap zip above (refer to https://docs.luxcore.io/docs). That should get you past the fork and any bad peers causing issues.

BACKUP YOUR WALLET.DAT & YOUR PRIVATE KEY BEFORE ANYTHING

[Luxcore]

The windows wallet has been fixed, you can find there latest version on github : https://github.com/LUX-Core/lux/releases/tag/v5.5 , please redownload if your Windows wallet is stuck. If your local chain is corrupted, follow the reset guide in #how-to-guides , just updated the blockchain.zip for your convenience. Non-windows wallets dont need to be updated.

[Luxcore]

LUX has successfully implemented a major fork at block 1612500. This fork brings with it the implementation of the new RX2 mining algorithm. RX2 should better balance mining to reward our long-term LUX miners and ensure the most fair distribution of mining rewards. This change benefits the entire LUX community as the new algorithm further secures the blockchain, helps safeguard LUX against price manipulation, and keeps LUX at the forefront of the crypto mining community.

Check out the full update for how to update or fix your wallet if you have issues: https://medium.com/luxcore/luxcore-rx2-fork-success-5573d5f5f30a

The RX2 rollout is also a big milestone for the Luxcore team and with this implementation, we can finally refocus our attention to our core products. We will be sharing more about what we are working on in the coming weeks, so stay tuned!

I just want to say thank you to our team who has shown real dedication to this project. Also, thank you to the community for your patience and support.

Let us say if I am new here in this project, what is your edge over those top alts in the market? I don't see any new concept on this one. Just like a lot of alts. Combining PoS and PoW is not new. So what can you say to newcomers that you will offer to them that is not common to alts out there.

Getting crashes for the Lux-qt core wallet.

Can't use the application at all. When I add my wallet it crashes...

A clean slate works, but if I try my backup wallet it doesn't work.

Seemingly getting various errors.

One is if I copy my old wallet into a new install:

Code:

EXCEPTION: St13runtime_error       
GenerateNewKey: AddKey failed       
E:\LUXcoin\lux-qt.exe in Runaway exception 

Trying to import my old wallet also failed differently.

____________________________________________
EDIT:
Took some 10x retries before it recovered the backup properly without crashing using the old wallet.

When you Restore a wallet you get 2 error messages upon application restart.
This is debug.log for the first one.

To make it work needed to first [Salvage] then try a [Reindex] for the application not to get stuck in a crash loop upon application start when adding the old wallet.

EDIT: ADD MORE ISSUES...
I had not even had time to encrypt before I get the second issue....

Code:

Assertion failed!
