I see that the protocol magic was changed in this code change, but I'm not sure if that has something to do with this whole discussion, but /GJ could probably shed some light on it.

We changed the magic in the 1.3.0 release. The magic wasn't changed again in 1.3.1. Cheers! /GJ, what is the protocol magic? I never figured out what it is used for exactly. -Fuse

My pool is also ready. Someone wants to test it? I see that the protocol magic was changed in this code change, but I'm not sure if that has something to do with this whole discussion, but /GJ could probably shed some light on it.

I never figured out what it is used for exactly. -Fuse To recognize connecting client if is valid client. For example, if you try to connect Litecoin to Guldencoin node it should fail. Yes, this. It's a 4 byte pattern that is sent at the start of a message between nodes. It's an early indicator to see whether the connected party is actually a Guldencoin node. It's not a "secret", nor is it a 100% foolproof method (there's a chance someone connects and by coincidence sends the same 4 bytes). But it filters away 99% of wrongly connected peers. It also helps to make sure that different cryptocoins using the bitcoin protocol don't ban eachother. If there wasn't a magic then a disconnect won't happen because the protocol used between the two peers is correct, but they will eventually ban each other because the blocks/chain is not compatible. This could result in huge blocklist and a fragmented network. So yeah: the network magic, it's pretty damn important ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

I think we'll see more stability and not at the expense of those people driving the buy support of late. Thanks to those who have helped maintain the price, it's taken quite a few BTC to do what they did to absorb the CM dumps. So here's a big: THANK YOU!!!!

Are we the first coin that kept stable (prise wise) under CM pressure? Or have there been others before?

A few more hours. Hashes seem to spread nicely running up to the DIGI switch: http://nlgstats.iblogger.org/15% of the blocks are not accounted for, I guess it's in the other multipool(s)?

Yeah, but those can't make up 15% of the blocks, right?

Last time I checked coinmine it was only a few MH/s. So that explains.

Brace yourself, Digi is coming.79 blocks to go: 3h 17m Probably a bit longer than that. I estimate the change to digi will happen somewhere around 16:20 CET. Monitoring closely. Join the chat at http://chat.guldencoin.comCheers!

Yeah, but those can't make up 15% of the blocks, right? special digi-day edition of http://nlgstats.iblogger.orgmore miners covered and updates every minute. coinmine taking 5%, jumper Gazo1q taking 10% of the missing 15%.. which makes things interesting.. *IF* both clever and Gazo1q did not switch to 1.3.1, they've got about 50% of the hashrate.. as long as they continue to jump they'll both be stuck once the 1.3.0 chains diff jumps. coinmine op visits this thread? on 1.3.1? Good luck guys! --Mark

50% is not an issue in this split. The "correct" chain is the one with the correctly calculated difficulty, no matter how much hashing power you've got to say otherwise..
