🚨 [IMPORTANT] Network Synchronization & Protocol Patch v1.1.0

Quote from: MiningCoinsPool link=topic=XXXXX.msgXXXXX#msgXXXXX date=1738617017
no connection

Attention Node Operators and Miners:

The connectivity issue is due to a Mandatory Protocol Update deployed to enhance network stability and resolve the high-density transaction overhead observed in the recent blocks. To restore connection and maintain synchronization with the Aure Mainnet, please follow these steps:

1. Update your Client: Ensure you are running the latest binaries from our official GitHub.
2. Add Persistent Nodes: If your client is struggling to discover peers, manually add our primary seed node via the console or your aure.conf file:
Code:
addnode=185.27.135.219:11995 add

3. Re-index (If necessary): If your node was on a different chain height during the update, restart your daemon with the -reindex flag to ensure full chain integrity.

Technical Impact:
P2P Handshake: Fixed peer-to-peer protocols for faster peer discovery.
Mempool Optimization: Improved validation logic for high-density transaction sets.
Consensus Patch: Mandatory update for block validation at the current height.

I’m currently running the latest binary from GitHub and still can’t maintain a stable connection. This is not coming from a mining pool—it’s from a wallet running on a home computer. The node connects, disconnects repeatedly, and eventually stays disconnected.

This behavior can lead to network instability, as users may end up mining on isolated nodes without realizing it. In practice, this can result in unintended forks forming on the network. From my perspective, the main issue seems to be that the official node is having difficulty maintaining stable, long-lived peer connections, and this likely needs attention.

I also wanted to clarify something mentioned earlier. In your previous message, you stated that there is no premine and that the launch is fair. However, according to the current source code, there appears to be a premine of 21 million coins, as shown here:
https://github.com/sipherapex/AURE-Core/blob/main/src/validation.cpp#L1268-L1270

And explorer here we can see the premined coins:
http://aurascan.gt.tc/block/9f49e9f05b8b87a246a502e8f8528764978c87874845f46bf900dda0d79a56fc





This seems to contradict the fair-launch claim, so some clarification on this point would really help avoid confusion.

Additionally, it looks like restrictive firewall rules may be in place—possibly to discourage pool mining—and Tor traffic also appears to be blocked. While I understand the intention behind trying to protect the network, these kinds of restrictions can work against how blockchains normally function. Limiting connectivity tends to introduce centralization and can unintentionally weaken the network rather than protect it.

Allowing open connectivity and decentralized mining would likely help the chain stabilize and grow organically. Otherwise, if participation drops due to connectivity issues or mining restrictions, the network risks losing momentum over time.

I’m not trying to be negative or critical here—just sharing observations based on my own experience and what I’ve seen happen with other projects over the years. I could be mistaken, of course, but I genuinely hope this feedback is helpful.

Hello MiningCoinsPool, thank you for your transparency and technical deep-dive.

1. Regarding the 21 Million AURE: To clarify, this allocation was integrated into the Genesis block for pre-sale opportunities and global marketing campaigns to ensure the project has the necessary resources for exchange listings and long-term sustainability. However, we hear the community's concern. We are committed to transparency, and we are planning to burn a significant portion of these coins to align with the "Fair Launch" spirit. We will provide on-chain proof of the burn soon.

2. Technical P2P & Connectivity Issues: The connectivity drops are a result of our current Strict Peer-Validation logic. In our attempt to mitigate "Eclipse Attacks" and "Time-jacking" during the early launch phase, the handshake timeout was set too low, causing home-based nodes to disconnect during high-latency periods. We are working on a v1.1.1 patch to optimize the net.cpp handling of long-lived connections.

3. Decentralization & Firewalls: Our primary concern was protecting Solo Miners from being instantly overshadowed by massive Scrypt pools, which could lead to a 51% attack vulnerability on a young chain. The current firewall rules were a "Bootstrap Protection" measure.

Immediate Action: I am ready to discuss the immediate removal of all firewall restrictions and allowing full decentralization. My goal is to find a balance where solo miners still have a fair chance while the network remains open.

I value your feedback and am open to any PRs on GitHub that help stabilize the P2P layer.
