But the strange thing is that the network is not minting any PoW. It would take 12 hours @1MH/s to find a block. Not ideal, but not impossible, and the difficulty should come way down once that block is found. Is no one mining this?
I try yesterday night but I have only 75KH/s of power. I could mine tomorrow for 12h at the same rate, but it is too few. p.s. 8° position at http://askcoin.netWith this voting rate, maybe GRW will be accepted in 2 months. I'm mining GRW at 7.5 MH/s for 6 hours now, still can't find a block. It looks like PoW is stuck somehow

The newest wallet says checkpoint out of date or something like that. Whats up with GRW? Anyone?

Just checked my GRW wallet and everything looks fine, no warning messages.

Please wait until the wallet is fully synchronized, warning message should be gone by then.

The wallet has only one active connection and is not even showing any blocks syncing. The wallet has been running all night and the last block received was 4 days ago.

Did you encrypt the wallet or it was syncing unencrypted? If you have stake ready coins and wallet is unlocked when syncing it can mint a PoS block on the unsynced chain and end up on the fork. There is some stake amount on your screenshot so probably that's the case. You have to backup your wallet.dat , delete blockchain files and re-sync from the scratch. (if your wallet is unencrypted it's better to sync with new empty wallet and copy your main wallet.dat from backup only when finished) Within a next few days I will try to make a bootstrap file for GRW for faster sync and upload it somewhere.

I have had to do this a bunch of times.  You have to encrypt the wallet and sync with locked wallet or it will keep staking not synced and will fork again. Or you can sync with new empty wallet and copy the main wallet to the working dir only when fully synced. There is a bug in many PoS coins, not only GRW - wallet is not intended to stake while syncing but actually it does at some point.

The alternative is to start the wallet with the reservebalance option to 9999999 and then, when it is sync, just put reservebalance false so it can POS.

Guess that's one way to encourage people to keep their clients open all the time - if you don't, you'll fork.  Perhaps PoS minting should be temporarily disabled for a period at startup: 1) If the timestamp of the last block is older than expected 2) If the local height is lower than the height peers are reporting Disabling PoS would be temporary only, otherwise a rogue node (with fake height), or a stalled network could prevent any new PoS minting.

unick had planned a fix ... ... The other thing that might be happening, is that if you generate PoS block BEFORE being fully synced to the network, you might indeed get stuck on a fork. I'll try to get that fixed for the next release. the quick fix for that is to start your client with -reservebalance=99999999
but last github commit is from 2 months ago ...

I've been having problems lately with the gui. I use Ubuntu 14.04.
The daemon is working, but when I start the gui to use coin control (as AFAIK cannot be used with rpc commands), it is too slow and unresponsive. After some months I've accumulated a lot of dust (blocks under 2 GRW or so), and I cannot combine them as the GUI does not work correctly. I miss the wonderful changes done by noise23 to TRK, with the option to automatically select blocks under a certain coin age.
I'm considering moving everything to new wallet with a single block. I know that I will lost coin age, but I'm currently staking at a much slower pace than two months ago.

Sounds like your client may be too busy trying to find blocks to stake. Try "reservebalance true 999999" in the debug console (or commandline switch -reservebalance=999999) to see if that helps with responsiveness. This command will effectively disable staking and should hopefully let you use coin control.

This command will effectively disable staking and should hopefully let you use coin control. I always start the GUI with reservebalance activated. The problem may be related to having too many blocks (>40k), but not with them attempting to stake.

If you don't have any huge outputs (ie 99% dust with one massive output which you don't want to lose coin age on) then you could try sending decent amounts (say 1-2% of your balance) back to yourself a few times, to see if that helps the UI become more responsive?

Good idea. All the blocks are very small, so that may work. I will try to move a percentage of my coins and then try to start again the UI. Thanks
