Sir, just ignore some posts, they are posted by competitors of this coin, or someone want to buy this coin at a lower price even some boring guys ect.
Thanks, I'm aware and appreciate the encouragement.
People did not pay attention to our announcements throughout the day about the fork so many were very slow to update their client leading to multiple forks. These are being resolved now if they aren't resolved already. The team has a list of items to work on. We have additional devs helping us out for FREE at the moment because they can see the code and understand the potential here soon as these bugs are ironed out.
Send an alert out on the network with link to the wallet update, so people have no choice but to pay attention. You did update the alert keys, so you should be able to do it.
Agree, 100%. I was stuck trying to solve these issues related to the unique aspects of SYS like regenerated mining fees. This is a great suggestion we should have done this and will in the future.
DEVS:
please do not release again until it is working solid. get a group of testers outside of your small dev group. i volunteer test test wallets, and i'm sure many others from the IRC with good intentions would do so as well. seems your sample size is too small to detect these issue before you pushed out these wallets. i recommend more thorough testing, even if it means further delays. best to do it right, not do it fast.
just my 2c.
Yep, will will do this and leverage this approach on a tesnet as we did with the fix today. The fix didn't address the wallet rescan bug which is an issue already logged in github, but it fixed the major problem related to coinbase mismatches.
Request withdrawal, deposits and trading to be completely disabled on all exchanges. Request all pools to stop mining.
Take 24-48 hours to inform and confirm everyone has the most updated wallet, once confirmed request everything to open again.
Viacoin dev did that and had all problems fixed pretty quick.
We didn't have that much time. Based on the error it was a critical issue that would prevent people from mining thus we had to act immediately, especially so shortly after the launch. I agree in practice though future issues should be handled with a larger time window. Even though we gave pools 3hrs (at the least) to prep for the fork and another hour after the actual wallet was released some of the larger pools were slow to upgrade... then the network was completely saturated with clients looking for nodes leading to the fork issues as the connected to pools that didn't upgrade.
In the future we'll be more prepared this was just a very critical bug we needed to address ASAP. Not something any team wants to deal with but something we had to do.
Can you please comment on the linux wallet issues we have? A lot of people updated their wallet or like me just started over but the block is stuck on 1663 and error occur.
Yes linux wallets are working please make sure you are connecting to nodes that are running the correct version/fork. Use connect= if needed to force to a proper node. Also, the network is saturated and needs more nodes on the right version - another reason for very slow sync for linux users. Pools are up and running though so the linux build will work. People in IRC are passing around the correct nodes to connect to and we have also tweeted the pools that have stood up on the right fork for miners. If there are still linux issues in a few hours, we'll followup and address. My linux node took about 15min just to start syncing and it had plenty of peers prior to the update today.
The features is too faraway.Just do the basic quick,as wallet SYNC,wallet UI,blockchain...
Otherwise you will lose your supporter,Even if you do better later,Because they had gone away.
wallet offline ... investigating blockchain issues. @BittrexExchange
These are not huge issues to address- dns seeds (we have them need to add more, its already in the code); wallet UI- something we already spoke to PRE launch, updates are coming this week. Blockchain - the forks will be resolved soon if they aren't already.
Obviously you realized that you were whining defensively, but it's in your favor that you've adjusted here and responded appropriately.
I'll admit I was being defensive. Hard not to be in my position but I understand the communities frustration. I'm not ignoring it or calling anyone in the community derogatory names (not saying you are, others have).
how does one go about using the marketplace anyways.
The marketplace uses the "offer" commands. This is intended for devs to build on as business opportunities for them (of course once we iron out the smaller wallet issues listed above). Remember all services cost fees so if you want to play with these for free - use the testnet. In the console type "help" you'll see a number of "offer" commands. These commands are used to list/view/buy items on the Syscoin blockchain. If you type "offernew help" for example it will tell you how to create an offer, after which you will need to activate it before it can be purchased by others using "offeractivate".
We have a boilerplate market for devs started (
https://github.com/syscoin/sysmarket) who want to start building on this- we are happy to take pull requests related to this front-end to bootstrap people and get them going. It uses the Syscoin JSON RPC and admittedly lacks documentation which we will add over this week. We're also adding more functionality to the QT wallet itself related to the market, but the QT wallet is intended to be a "reference client" so it just mirrors the daemon commands.
