About duckNote

duckNote is an experimental open-source cryptocurrency based on CryptoNote technology and CryptoNight algorithm. It is a fork of Bytecoin - https://bytecoin.org - the very first implementation of CryptoNote. Nobody own or control duckNote. It is a scalable decentralized cryptocurrency with strong privacy protection.  
Inspired by Bitcoin and idea of decentralized blockchain, but uses absolutely new source code, algorithm, protocol and separate blockchain, duckNote can be called The Cryptocurrency 2.0. It is a pure proof-of-work system that uses CPU and only CPU computing power for producing fast, secure and untraceable worldwide transactions.

Edit on 8th September 2014:

This coin is awesome. I wish I didn't sell my 320k for 6 satoshis each.

Make me feel better and click my ref link and register. ⬇️

[danteT]

This wallet is for crazy geeks. Only them can want this "cryptocurrency".

I love this wallet!
Mining at hashrate: 94.
Yes! found a block just now.

wait, mined block failed verification.

Error in daemon: ERROR c:\users\ducknote\documents\visual studio\projects\ducknote\src\net_node.inl:246 UPNP_addPortMapping failed.

Initilising core...
loading blockchain...
Can't load blockchain storage from file, generating genesis block.
then it generates genesis block.

Help me!

Indeed, I still haven't seen one good explanation on how to get started with these wallets.

only solo?no pool?

[Keyboard-Mash]

I'd be very worried about this one .. this has come up about 5 times already with many different computers. Be safe ... it's a fork from a brand new account. Don't put this on a computer you care about. If this is fud .. sorry bro but somethings off when this comes up :

2014-May-30 16:53:47.722717 [miner 4]ERROR ..\..\src\cryptonote_core\cryptonote_core.cpp:368 mined block failed verification

[e1ghtSpace]

guys, it keeps saying connect failed

[Keyboard-Mash]

Now this has occurred over ten times in the last ten minutes. Looks like a fail launch to me, assuming there's nothing underhanded going on here.

I could just be on a fork though.

You use your terminal/command prompt of choice, run the help command and use the commands there with the arguments you want assigned to them.
If you don't know how to use a terminal i highly recommend that you learn because it is the most useful tool in computing.

Yes, this happened to me. Fail launch it seems.

[Keyboard-Mash]

Yes, this happened to me. Fail launch it seems.

Gonna try a new blockchain, maybe on a fork.

Edit: Confirmed on a fork, slight faith in dev not doing something underhanded restored.

So what do I do to get off my fork if I am on one?
Btw, simpleminer doesn't launch for me, i'm new to this type of wallet, what do I do?

Edit: I'm good now

But now there is blue text: Block added as alternative on height 172. Fork?

[pttx]

OSX bin isnt working..

Well, not my favorite thing to explain ... because as far as I can see there's really no reason for yet another fork of a CN coin, but I'd rather people do things safely and correctly ... so to get on the new fork just delete all your blockchain/p2pstate data and re-open the daemon. It will re download the chain and you should be on the right fork.

Are you using windows? Simpleminer needs a .bat file to run it correctly, and a pool to connect to. you can mine from simplewallet solo mining unitl a pool shows up

The blue text is an orphan block, now replaced by a correct block on the network. Happens very often and is expected.

[danteT]

working perfect, i do not know what you are talking about guys, but i guess that is the first truly fair launch, i can confirm, blockchain was started recently, maybe that is why we can feel some inconvenience, but that stuff definitely have bright future.
