I have been seeing the same names around PND since I have been here.

This coin has a plan.

Is there a recommended internet connection for Pandabank to run properly? I wonder if my poor bandwidth is the reason for a lot of my issues. I live in a pretty rural part of south west England and my bandwidth usually caps at about 300k and that is shared between 3 family members who all regularly use the internet. My latest issue is with the interest not coming through, I know I will get it eventually but I have 6 lots of various amounts going back as far as the 9th of January and that one seems to have been frozen on 339 conformations for ages, the others range from 1 to 206 conformations. Cheers for the assistance as always.

Is there a recommended internet connection for Pandabank to run properly? I wonder if my poor bandwidth is the reason for a lot of my issues. I live in a pretty rural part of south west England and my bandwidth usually caps at about 300k and that is shared between 3 family members who all regularly use the internet. My latest issue is with the interest not coming through, I know I will get it eventually but I have 6 lots of various amounts going back as far as the 9th of January and that one seems to have been frozen on 339 conformations for ages, the others range from 1 to 206 conformations. Cheers for the assistance as always.

I had the same problem that after a while, my stakes got stuck at some amount of confimations (and wallet showed that it was behind the network). This was in hybrid mode so I decided to go back to classic and haven't had that problem again.

Do you also have valid stakes?
Everyone gets invalid stakes at times, and yes it does depend on your connection, *but* once the blockchain is synced, it's mainly a matter of latency, not bandwidth.
Not accepted stakes happen; with so many people staking and short block time, it's kinda "common" for two people to send their stake in the same millisecond. As you already know, it doesn't matter in the long run (not even in the middle run).

Anyway, if you have any doubts, try a full resync.
Stop the wallet, and open an explorer window and type %appdata% in the address bar, then go to the Pandacoin folder. Make a backup of wallet.dat and delete everything else. Then restart the wallet.
Try to do it when your family isn't using the connection, it might choke your bandwidth, since it's so fast now.

And remember to backup your wallet.dat often! (you can do it from the interface File -> backup Pandabank)

Ah backup wallet.dat and delete files, I will try this next time I have any issues. Did that and the frozen ones came through fine. Thank you again Panda people, you guys are brilliant

Hey guys when is the new update?

soon™

it's taking too long, shareholders are losing fate

Personally in many ways I am more encouraged than ever.

PND is currently at 25% of it's PND/BTC high just over 2 months ago and much worse in USD terms.
We have what might to some look like insurmountable sell walls on BTX all the way up.
Daily volume is low and down facing (but quite good considering).
The touchstone BTC Rock is now falling like a rock and bearish sentiment abounds.
Scammer's, hackers, pump 'n dumpers are rampant amongst the crypto community.

So why would I be more encouraged under those seemingly dire circumstances?

This thread should be full of bitter and disappointed bag holders, people screaming at the devs, running around with their hair on fire, pumpers pumping and all the other drama that goes on when a coins price drops so dramatically.  I just don't see that behaviour from this community, it is the epitome of 'Keep Calm and Carry On' in fact it's a bit weird in the nicest possible way.  IRC is fun and unpredictable with young guns and old farts like me all interacting, helping out noobs, tipping, raining, discussing everything under the sun in fact the least talked about subject is the price of PND!

For better or worse I've put my faith in the devs and the PND community's vision not in charts, BTC or the price at any particular point in time, naive? perhaps, a long shot? probably, worth the long term risk? definitely.

For anyone else wanting to run pandacoind on their headless boxes, I put up a short guide on http://devrandom.serveblog.net. I still have PandaBank on my Windows machine but it now runs in Lite Mode since I don't turn it on that frequently. Thanks again mtrycz!

BTC is taking a huge hit these past few days

That's great! Happy to see you actually got around to publishing it.

Some minor nitpicks to make it perfect:
* add how to encrypt a newly created wallet
* state that the default dir for pandacoind is /home/user/.pandacoind - that's what's used when you don't supply a -datadir (and what I use for simplisity)
* also, state how to alias the command with a shorthand
* state that compiling on a Raspberry Pi could require setting additional swap; there are lots of guides for this
* security consideration: I run pandacoind with a dedicated user, created just for this; it's a good idea to run every wallet with a different user to keep things separate. Also, don't run the wallet with the user you connect to with ssh.
* maybe add an tl;dr at the end (setup script and commands recap)

Cheers!
