Blocks corruption is only possible if the computer suddenly shuts down and synchronization is not yet complete. If the wallet sync has reached 100% then the sudden power off does not harm the blockchain. In other cases, any other causes of corruption are related to the automatic updates feature, which roughly terminates many system processes. The easiest way to protect against this is to use a properly configured computer with UPS and disabled automatic updates. For safety net, you can always create your archive with the folders blocks and chainstate and in case of damage to the blockchain, just to replace the data. Delete old folders and unpack new ones to their place. Then the re-sync process will only take a few minutes. Sorry but not... In my case, EVERY TIME I do a proper windows 10 shutdown, if I forgot to shutdown the wallet first, I get a wallet corruption error and it has to "re-verify" the whole 50 weeks. That is after been stacking for days (meaning, the wallet is fully synchronised) I have 3 other stacking wallets running on that computer and this is the only one affected... There is clearly something going on... Doesn't have windows something similar to the Unix signals that you can subscribe to and close all the files as soon you you get the "shooting down signal"? Actually thing jut got worst, since it last happened, every time I try to run it now, it aborts with the typical "Windows had encountered an error in this application..." Any one knows a way to fix that?

Try using a different location for the DMDv3 folder. For example, another disk or removable device. 23. Q: Alternative way https://diamond-info.github.io/#q23-altwayIt could be that my particular configuration is more prone than others... BUT that doesn't take away the fact that there is a Fault in the wallet's programming. I know that this kind of things happen, specially if you are writing something to the disk and the system freezes or the power is cut, but it shouldn't happen if you close the system the right way. It shouldn't happen because the OS notifies all the programs that it is going to shutdown and they should trap this notification for do their "clean up". I think there is one of two options; or the wallet is not trapping this signal for "committing" the pending work and close the open files. Or this "cleanup" is taking too long.. Both are a programming issue. As I said, I stake more coins on the same system and Diamond is the only that gets corrupted when I shutdown the system properly MC For what it is worth - I also run Windows 10 64 bit and never have a problem with the wallet corrupting. Whenever I get the update notice, I shut down all of my wallets, then I restart the computer in update mode. When I come back, I restart all my wallets with no issues whatsoever. Try that technique first before just choosing shutdown from the start button. Also, do you store your wallet.dat and other files on the C: drive or another location? Mine are saved to the default directory on the C: drive. Yep, but that shouldn't be needed. I use that machine for more things and it needs to restart from time to time. If you follow the proper OS shutdown procedure you shouldn't break anything. Even Word asks you if you want to save stuff, if you have an unsaved document. Yes, my walled is in the default folder as well. Cheers MC

Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

the wallet on windows is very delicate.
sneeze on it and corrupt.
I think it should be made more robust especially for new users who are not computer geeks.

DMD wallet u see now is still a experimental software every early adopter who join us already now accept this for the advantage to be part of it early yes wallet software will improve a lot over the years and what will hit mainstream in like 2020 will be total different as what we see now

How long will the swap last, @cryptonit? I am very busy with my work this week, so I hope that the swap lasts more than one week and I will have chance to swap my coins. swap BTC for DMD will be available as long as BTC exists if BTC would disapear some other main coin will establish that u can swap into DMD https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFSAWiTJsjcDiamonds Are Forever - Shirley Bassey Diamonds are forever, they are all I need to please me They can stimulate and tease me They won't leave in the night I've no fear that they might desert me Diamonds are forever, hold one up and then caress it Touch it, stroke it and undress it I can see ev'ry part, nothing hides in the heart to hurt me I don't need love, for what good will love do me? Diamonds never lie to me For when love's gone, they'll lustre on Diamonds are forever, sparkling round my little finger Unlike men, the diamonds linger Men are mere mortals who are not worth going to your grave for I don't need love, for what good will love do me? Diamonds never lie to me For when love's gone, they'll lustre on Diamonds are forever, forever, forever Songwriter: John Barry

I'm curious about this project and I wanna learn as much info about it as possible but I feel kind of overwhelmed by the 800+ pages here. Do you reckon it's necessary to read them before making any sorta decision?

It is never too late to read the published material before making a decision. But the basic information and the main links is on the first page of this section.

What is the "official" place where one would need to look for the right chain for DMD?
|
Minar.cc pools are not running anymore, the domain was registered by someone else and I don't have any relationship with the new owner.
