Hi, is there something up with the blockchain.

It says "Current Number of Blocks 691486"
And
"Estimated total blocks  790871"

And then goes into "0" block non-syncing stuckness

I use

rpcuser=karmaname
rpcpassword=karmapass
rpcport=9432
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
daemon=1
server=1
addnode=54.234.181.73:9432
addnode=204.246.67.106:9432
addnode=188.165.2.147:9432
addnode=23.254.97.16:9432
addnode=188.226.177.232:9432
addnode=68.5.34.219:9432
addnode=92.222.38.197:9432
addnode=209.188.18.188:9432

Is there a way to repair ?

seems to happen when you first download the chain but after reloading wallet it showed correctly, but then next time i loaded wallet and it had to catch up same thing happened again, easy temp fix is to just reload when it is caught up to current.

Will KARM be pumped like EAC, LOT?

Who will be the next LTC coin that will be pumped? KARM, BAT, LEAF?

Could you pm soopy and let him know what exactly your wallet shows. perhaps a screen shot. So he can look more into it.

thank you!

Hello All,

I have received thevictimofuktyranny's pm regards to the matter will be looking to it today and give you guys an update on it.

[soopy452000]

Hello All,

I have investigated the matter further and identified the cause of this issue and came to the conclusion that the Blockchain magic of KarmaCoin Here:

At Line :

https://github.com/karmateam/karma/blob/master-0.8/src/main.cpp#L3298

Code:

// The message start string is designed to be unlikely to occur in normal data.
// The characters are rarely used upper ASCII, not valid as UTF-8, and produce
// a large 4-byte int at any alignment.
unsigned char pchMessageStart[4] = { 0xfb, 0xc0, 0xb6, 0xdb }; // Karma: increase each by adding 2 to bitcoin's value.

These Magic Bytes should be unique but unfortunately in this case these characters contradict with many other coins thus you guys are experiencing the sync issue.

To correct this problem would require a hardfork and the community will need to agree on that.
