█=█ BoostCoin █=█ New team, new plans

[morphtrust]

if you get on there they have a ticket system to pelt them with the demand to be able to withdraw and deposit coins to their exchange, and they use I think the same user name (btc38.com) on skype so you can search and talk to them there

**Edit**

add to that live:btc38com as another contact that says it is online support, and shows as a location "china" so maybe that can get us some things moving.

Be careful of this Skype user...
live:btc38com is not from BTC38 support. Yesterday this user was trying to send me a virus file..

the file name (including all the spaces) is ' info btc.pdf                                                                                              __.scr '

If anyone else gets sent this don't open it. Here is the Virustotal scan

not sure what you are on about but I scanned it after getting it and with clamwin I found nothing (latest updated virus database for it) maybe you got a false positive? tried a couple other virus scanners online and found nothing in it, it is just a pdf on mining bitcoins.

is it possible that it is so new that no one knows it is a virus, and what does it do? going to check what you have listed,

[morphtrust]

on another note I voted to let the developer finish working on it, as well, need a solution that is going to keep the coins able to keep flowing, and I dont like the idea of a central owner like BTC38 or any other exchange be responsible for the block chain, whole point of crypto is to be decentralized.

[morphtrust]

ok one thing that throws up a red flag for me is that hardly any of those virus scanners can agree on what the name or type of virus it is lol. and still you see a bunch said nothing that it was ok.

[morphtrust]

got the im and going to try and get into that group conversation to see if I can push to get them to turn loose of the control and let you get on developing this coin

[scvetic]

got the im and going to try and get into that group conversation to see if I can push to get them to turn loose of the control and let you get on developing this coin

when we can expect to be able to move coins again from wallets ?

>>BOST V2 plans approved!<<

The plans to repair the BOST block chain have been approved by the BTC38 administrators, which means we will all be moving onto a new fork of the block chain soon, this will repair the issues we have all experienced recently. The current situation with Cryptsy will also be assessed as part of this new phase.


“What will be implemented?”

- The new wallet will include new code changes to help secure and ensure that the block chain stays decentralised as per the crypto currency ethos.
- New permanent staking nodes will be created to ensure the block chain is always progressing. This will require the nodes to have a balance.
- A fork of the blockchain will be taken and backed up along with wallet v3.6.0.0-core. This will be used if the new plan has be be backed out.
- The new block chain will be repaired in a private network, where 500k more BOST will be created by mining a special PoW block with a 500k reward. The new coins will then be kept secure. This balance will then be used to create new nodes and fill up their balances. The new total in existence will be about 12.2m.
- This new update will be mandatory for all users, Exchanges, Explorers and anyone who runs a daemon. Any BOST transactions happening on the previous wallet after the update, shall be orphaned and will not be valid.


“What do i need to do now?”

- You will be notified on here and in the QQ group when the new wallet is ready
- Once ready you will only be able to connect to the new block chain which will already include the 500k more BOST.
- Remember, do not move or transfer coins until this upgrade is complete and you are connected using the new wallet


--------------------------------------------------------------


BOST V2计划批准！
修复BOST块链的计划已经批准BTC38管理员，这意味着我们都将移动到块链的一个新的分支很快，这将修复，我们最近都经历过的问题。目前的情况与Cryptsy也将被评定为这个新阶段的一部分。
- 新钱包将包括新的代码更改，以帮助安全，并确保该块下叉分散按加密货币风气。
- 新的常任跑马圈地的节点将被创建，以确保该块链始终进展。这将要求节点有一个平衡。
- 在blockchain的一个分支将采取与备份以及钱包v3.6.0.0核心。这将用于如果新的方案已被回退。
- 新的块链将被修复中的专用网络，其中500k的更BOST将通过挖掘一个特殊战俘块以500k的奖励来创建。新硬币将被安全保存。这种平衡将被用于创建新的节点，并填写了自己的余额。新的总存在约为12.2米。
- 这个新的更新将强制所有用户，交易，探险家，谁运行一个守护进程。任何BOST交易发生之前的钱包会被孤立，而且将是无效的。
- 将通知您就在这里和QQ群的时候，新的钱包准备好
- 一旦准备就绪，你将只能连接到新的块链将已经包含了50万多个BOST。
- 记住，不要移动或转移硬币直到升级完成并使用新的钱包

Great news!!! Thank You! 

[MbccompanyX]

I suppose that BTC38 Admins and Community after watching the votes on the poll finally decided to give up and allow the changes to be made, anyway i find strange that we had to arrive to this situation after a long time (i'm following the coin from October) i hope that now there will be no problems for the coin and the blockchain

[loeki de leeuw]

That is good news, Thank you to all.
Now let's see if the coins which are still on Cryptsy are recovereable at all.

I hope that Cryptsy is willing to work allong with BTC38 to implement the new plans. Let's hope Cryptsy is staying in business.
Very good news, and so quick!

Thanks again!






I also have contacted Cryptsy about the development regarding the new Boostcoin plan.
I did not received a response from Cryptsy, hopefully they read the message i left there.

[egghead123]

This is great news and thanks for all your hard work on the community's behalf

hi dev, are you taking the opportunity to implement blocknet tech? there is some serious progress over there...

Yes possibly, i have spoken to the BN devs about this in the past. The priority at the moment is getting the new chain up and running and understanding the Cryptsy position and how this will affect those coins. Once that is all sorted then we can look at approaching the BlockNet again

[morphtrust]

so we will soon be able to move our boost from a wallet or from the exchange to our wallet from BTC38? yay!

[morphtrust]

any news on how the testing is going and how long before the new wallet will be ready?

[mammix2]

any news on how the testing is going and how long before the new wallet will be ready?

Features currently being tested on the new chain are:

- The ability to keep the chain moving even when the PoS network weight is below minimum. This will ensure the chain never stalls again.
- Ensure the majority of wallets only connect using Tor (Not only for anonymity purposes, but so the Chinese community can connect through their Great Firewall to services outside, such as the new bost.link explorer
- bost.link explorer hidden services node

Unsure when it will be released, as there are a lot of things to do. But it wont be before early next week

------------------------------------------

目前正在对新的链测试新功能有：

- 保持链当POS网络重量低于最低甚至移动的能力。这将确保链条从来没有摊位了。
- 确保广大钱包只连接使用Tor（不仅是匿名的目的，但因此中国社会可以通过自己的长城防火墙连接到外部的服务，如新bost.link探险
- bost.link探险家隐匿服务节点

不确定何时会被释放，因为有很多事情要做。但它不会是下周初前

[scvetic]

great. Let us know when its done to do some testing.

this is infact a problem and if you open it before it is scanned it apparently either impairs your software or it cleans itself after installing a keylogger called romserver.exe and some supporting software to keep it from being uninstalled, so dont download it and if anyone can track down who this live:btc38com user it might be prudent cause they seemed to know a bit too much about what was going on with cryptsy so they might be who stole those coins from them, thus anyone who can track them down might be getting that 1000 bitcoin reward!

Release schedule:
The new code will first be release to all the important services nodes such as exchanges.
To ensure these services can update and sync to the new block chain they will have the release code before the wallets are published for general release. For some users this may take a while due to the amount of blocks that are need to be re-synced in some cases.
Once we have confirmed all these services have updated, then the new wallets will be released to the public, in all the following major formats…
Windows Wallet
Mac OSX wallet
Unix Source code

Thx for the update. Sounds great. Do you have contact with Cryptsy about the new Boostcoin developments and are they willing to implement them?

[mammix2]

Thx for the update. Sounds great. Do you have contact with Cryptsy about the new Boostcoin developments and are they willing to implement them?

Yes I've been i contact with both BTC38 and Cryptsy regarding the update...

The new wallets and source code will be released Friday 5th Feb  

Edit:
Sorry everyone, BTC38 have just told me, because of the Chinese New Year event, they wont be able to do the wallet updates today. I will however release the new wallet binaries and source code today. With all the important information needed.
