I'm going to buy and mine some of these again, I lost all my ORB a while back due to a computer breakdown, and bailed on Crypto, but I got the bug back again now, and am pleasantly surprised how strong ORB has stayed.....
Did your hard drive fail or was it some other type of issue with the system? If the hard drive is still functional even with a corrupt OS you may still have access to that wallet.dat file. If the hard drive controller failed you can replace it with a controller from the same model and get things back also |

If the hard drive controller failed you can replace it with a controller from the same model and get things back also Many modern drives store servo data in an EEPROM on the circuit board, so you'd have to swap that (tiny) chip too. That's a job which will require more than a screwdriver with a torx bit. Also, if it's SSD then things become infinitely more complex. I do agree that it's worth some effort to recover the wallet, especially for 5k ORB. In the early days of ORB scrypt PoW mining I "lost" 2000+ ORB due to a silently corrupted wallet, but I didn't know it at the time; I didn't find out until a year or two later when I ran "checkwallet" and recovered the funds. By that time altcoins were on the decline and everything had lost a lot of value - if I had been able to sell them around the time they were mined, as I was doing at the time, I would have made at least an extra 2 BTC. They were virtually worthless by the time I recovered them. I'm sure anyone who's been around for a while has bad luck stories like this.  edit: I remember now what likely happened. When a client builds the transaction, it marks each output as spent in the wallet, but if the transaction fails (eg it becomes too complex), the client doesn't roll back those changes to the wallet. So even though the transaction was never sent, the coins are considered spent, and do not show as available. It's not until checkwallet/repairwallet audits the wallet that it correctly picks up the coins as unspent. This issue wasn't specific to ORB as many alts used the same broad code base. I now do a regular 'checkwallet' for all coin clients, and the occasional restart with the -rescan commandline switch. |

For 5k ORB, it's definitely worth the time.

The comp is now gone, the HDD was fried, I didnt realise that perhaps something could have been salvaged |

I have changed my pool from POW to a shared staking pool. Take a look its http://crunckspool.co.ukIt is a fixed investment so everyone gets the same payout, I have created an FAQ section that should answer most of your questions (see link at top of page). The reasoning behind this is that you stake better the higher amount you have staking. If any of you would like to join and try this out please PM me. Please also note this is only available to full members and above as I really can't be bothered with some of the nonsense from newbies. Cheers Crunck |

this ANN might be old but i guess it is still needed to be translated into other languages to get the attentions of some non-english traders and investors as well, on that case, i can do the Filipino translation for a bounty.

All Seen Peers (since August 2016): 511 (and still counting) Not bad I'm sure there are more because only peers are counted that were connected to the CoinExchange wallet  |

There's something fishy about them... reports from another coin's community are a little bit "disturbing": sudden "maintenance mode" and PoS address change without notice, suspicious PoS rewards allocations in a pattern that resembles a ponzi scheme... but I didn't check personally any of those allegations. For me, the (almost) complete lack of legal information about them is a signal that I should keep some distance from them. Some regulars here will recall that I was a bit too positive about a similar service (staisybit), but that proved to be a meteor: a short bright shine and a long trail of thin ash and dust. At least it wasn't openly malicious (I think/hope). Usually, when something looks too good to be true, then it is not good at all. |
