[DSH] Dashcoin (Cryptonote, automated source)

[nade70]

The Dashcoin Wallet GUI is here! Right now it is Windows only.  Mac and Linux builds will come later.  You can download it here:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/dashcoinwalletgui/files/latest/download

This version contains the following features.  It will be updated as more features are added:

• Syncs blockchain with network
• Can load/generate a wallet
• Loads balance
• Loads address
• Lists transaction history (sends and receives)
• Can send Dashcoin

To import an already existing wallet, copy wallet.bin, wallet.bin.address.txt, and wallet.bin.keys to the same directory as the wallet GUI.  Rename the files to wallet.bin, wallet.bin.address.txt, and wallet.bin.keys if they are not already named that.

Up and running on windows 8.1

Sent you 50,000 dash to say thanks and to test sending coin

Haven't tried sending to an exchange yet will try that next.

You did a great job and set the standard with this wallet.

I have some finding about the recent transaction problem. I knew what was the problem when I fixed my test pool - transactions with size bigger than 10,000 bytes were hardly accepted in the blockchain. I took my investigation further and here are my finding:

1. Minergate uses old or modified code:
This is the code from the current version on Dashcoin:

#define CRYPTONOTE_BLOCK_GRANTED_FULL_REWARD_ZONE 20000

Here is what they probably use:

#define CRYPTONOTE_BLOCK_GRANTED_FULL_REWARD_ZONE 10000

2. Minergate started to use this code on 2014/10/06 10:28:17
I looked at the blockchain for odd blocks and they started to appear here:
http://chainradar.com/dsh/blocks/2241/30

Before this block all blocks have size >17,000 bytes, which means all pools have honest code before this point of time (CRYPTONOTE_BLOCK_GRANTED_FULL_REWARD_ZONE with value 20000)

http://chainradar.com/dsh/block/63d91c6d5f7f9eab1cc2ad3f3be0435fba2427694ba4579e1cdb6077e8e47110

3. Minergate used correct code before 2014/10/06 10:28:17
Here is a Minergate's block just 2 blocks below the first strange block I showed above.

How this is affecting the network:
1. Transactions with >10000 bytes will break with frequency, related to how much of the hashrate Minergate controls. This produce a snowball effect - the more failed transaction - more people goes to Minergate, because the other pools cannot send transactions.
2. The higher number of transaction failed leads to the constant need of reset and cache delete.

How to act:
DO NOT MINE AT MINERGATE
To improve the effective transaction median and reduce the rejected transactions, we must put Minergate's hashrate percent to minimum as possible until they fix their daemon.

Spread the hashrate between pools
Lets don't make the same mistake again and give so much power to a single pool.

Make sure you are running dashcoind with version 1.0.2

dashcoind --version

The fact that Minergate had a version with CRYPTONOTE_BLOCK_GRANTED_FULL_REWARD_ZONE 20000 before their version with value 10000 makes me almost certain this is not a simple mistake.

Something wrong with the GUI wallet,it crashed and pop up a window saying running time error.

[DenisZabar]

Mine in http://dsh.extremepool.org/ I just moved my machines ~ 13kh/s there because minergate STEAL your earnings trust me

i can confirm this, 5.6khs on minergate was getting me 6 million per 24 hours. 5.6khs on extremepool was giving me 17 million at the time. this was when the difficulty was alittle lower btw. not at current difficultys.

Also confirming this.

The Dashcoin Wallet GUI is now ready for beta testing. Right now it is Windows only.  Mac and Linux builds will come later.  You can download it here:

This version contains the following features.  It will be updated as more features are added:

• Lists transaction history (sends and receives)

To import an already existing wallet, copy wallet.bin, wallet.bin.address.txt, and wallet.bin.keys to the same directory as the wallet GUI.  Rename the files to wallet.bin, wallet.bin.address.txt, and wallet.bin.keys if they are not already named that.

wallet worked flawlessly for me, worked with my older wallet files and is quite fast and not so much of a memory hog. good job.

+1 and price is rising again, sending some coin to for contribute 

[arielbit]

switched to http://dsh.democats.org

it is dev's pool

will be good to see BTC market here!

I have some finding about the recent transaction problem. I knew what was the problem when I fixed my test pool - transactions with size bigger than 10,000 bytes were hardly accepted in the blockchain. I took my investigation further and here are my finding:

So what about transactions that never made it from pools like extremepool or even democats (or any of the open source pools)? Will those failed TXs ever be resent to miners that never received them or is it a manual process? I know extremepool won't be doing any manual payouts like that for me, I already asked. Between extremepool and democats I never received >50M DSH that should have made it to me.

I expect to complete the script for sending the payments later today or tomorrow. I already automated the process of getting the failed transactions and I am halfway through sending.

Awesome, thanks for looking into that and getting a fix. Will that only apply to your pool or should I contact other pools about it? Thanks again

I have added the link the Dashcoin Wallet GUI github project to my original post.  I have also added it in this post.

For those trying to run on Linux, I experienced some issues while running the wallet under Linux, which I am working out.

slb, interesting findings.. I have posted in the Minergate thread and sent a PM.. hopefully they fix the issue. I had a few cpu's pointed at minergate mining DSH which i've switched over to democats and xmining

I wonder what minergate gains by doing this if it was not an accident..

What version of Windows are you running?  Also, could you please post the exact error message?  Thanks!

[DenisZabar]

Sending not working. Created new wallet still not working...

I released Subtoshi about a month and a half ago, so Dashcoin could be traded.  Dashcoin has since been listed on Poloniex, and the trade volume on Subtoshi has dropped.  As of now, Subtoshi is costing me more to run than it is bringing in.  I am glad that Subtoshi was able to get Dashcoin trading going, but now that trading has died down, and for the reasons I stated before, I have decided to close down Subtoshi.  Thank you to everyone who used Subtoshi. I hope it provided useful.

The plan for Subtoshi's closing is as follows
Deposits will be disabled on October 26th, a week from today.
Trading will be disabled on October 31st.
After that, the exchange will remain open for withdrawals until December 31st.

I will have a more official announcement later on the website, and will be sending out an email regarding the closing of Subtoshi to everyone who has registered.

Very sad to hear this. I love the idea of subtoshi, the website was clean and error free. Pwstegman thanks for subtoshi AND pumping out a GUI wallet for this coin very quickly! I wish you luck on your future projects, especially if you are continuing to work on dsh.  I hope subtoshi can come back in the future if it could be profitable!

good to see DSH moving toward the bright future.
