[ANN] Triangles [TRI] Now Stable & Working Anonymous Cloak over TOR - ON BITTREX

[pseudonymdude]

All my local coins are locked in "Stake:" so I'll wait to send when they're available... may be a little bit  

Less talking, more staking! Go go go! :p

I tried the connecting to one node thing, but I still can't get past 9500.

edit: Also, should I be trying with peers who are at 10325 or 10330?

edit2: up to 10012

simply restart the wallet and wait a few mins in between, should work as well. repeat until u have all blocks.
 if u try the "connect" method: if possible, choose a client with 10330.

what repeatedly worked for me if i try to resync the blockchain completely:

delete blockchain files, connect, sync to ~ 9000, restart, sync to ~ 9500, next time ~ 10000, then 10330.


edit: you know that the "current number of bocks" are important, not the estimated total?

edit2: if it doesnt work, delete the blk* files from %appdata%\triangles (windows) and start over with syncing

edit3: hint: try a full resync with: triangles-qt.exe -connect=lkta5xj5nlnxxmrt.onion. i get stuck @ 9000, 9500, 10000 each time, but it also continues to sync after restart each time. so somewhat reliable.

Great!  It worked!  I'm on block 10332.  Unfortunately, the 50 test coins I sent from bittrex didn't show up.  Are we on a different fork?

If there are different forks, is it possible to find the node/nodes bittrex is using?

If we are on the right fork, is it possible to create a bootstrap.dat?  The one mentioned earlier didn't work for me.

Thanks for your help.  If we can get this chain moving, I'll send you a couple hundred TRI from bittrex.

Also, most people probably know how to do this, but if not, here's the complete idiot's guide for Windows users.

You should be starting from block 0.

1. Name the folder you have all the triangles files in triangles
2. Drag the triangles folder to your C: drive
3. Copy the following line:
C:\triangles\triangles-qt.exe -connect=lkta5xj5nlnxxmrt.onion
5. hold windows key and press r
4. type cmd
5. hit enter
6. Right click anywhere in the command prompt
7. Press p
8. Press Enter
9. Wait until you get to block 9000 and 5 minutes after
10. Close the triangles-qt.exe program
11. Go back to the command prompt and do steps 6-8
12. Wait until you get to block 9500 and 5 minutes after
13. Close the triangles-qt.exe program
14. Go back to the command prompt and do steps 6-8
15. Wait until you get to block 10000 and 5 minutes after
16. Close the triangles-qt.exe program
17. Go back to the command prompt and do steps 6-8
18. Should be synced up now
19. Close triangles-qt.exe program one more time and open it from the GUI as you would normally (double-click)

mh...the block explorer seem stuck @ 10325.

wasnt able to find who did it (probably because i'm blind)....but can you fix it?

[darkmatter7]

wow...

I just successfully refreshed and am staking!!!

Nice work guys!

[pseudonymdude]

Is anyone receiving coins from bittrex?

If so, use getpeerinfo and post your peers.

Thanks

[romeshomey]

I still don't KNOW WHY...

tried resynching 3 times, I keep getting stuck here with my coins staking.

When the wallet initially opens it shows that Im staking and shows a weight, but shows network rate at 0 but after about 10 seconds that changes to, you don't have any mature coins to stake...   even though coins remain in stake status...

lol

bizarro

Your coins aren't going back to your balance because you have to get a number of confirmations first and the chain is extremely slow right now.

If so, use getpeerinfo and post your peers.

Thanks

i am, but 0/4 confirms. one of my peers is the tor address i posted earlier.

[croTek4]

My wallet now says "111 blocks remain, downloaded 10333 of 10444 blocks", is anyone else seeing this?

Yeah.  I'm hoping that's the bittrex chain, but I can't sync up to it.

Try it again with a small number.  Maybe it's not working anymore.  If it is, give me some more peers to try.

[pseudonymdude]

Post your peer nodes with 10444 blocks.  I tried syncing to
u4td6kbbcefoc3uj.onion
but I got stuck at 9285.

u4td6kbbcefoc3uj.onion
but I got stuck at 9285.

these 10444 blocks nodes are weird. one of my wallets synced to 10444 (in a vm), the other didnt. so i tried syncing by directly connecting to my 10444 blocks wallet, all i got was:
ERROR: CheckProofOfStake() : INFO: check kernel failed on coinstake 368d05fe8da746fea95f5e268a2cc22dd914dfc8429d192d5f9df66d030c9eae, hashProof=76618905efa0b9c6454293508a32011e205975ef832d3733c9af33e92cdcc14b

it tried resyncing from block 0, but no success - same shit appeared for blocks>10333.  i also tried to directly import the 10444 blocks dat file, this happened:

So its seems like these 10444 are bullshit (orphans). maybe staked by an old client who recently upgraded? dunno...

so if u have 10333 blocks currently, youre fine. .


edit: u should see those errors in your debug logs too.

@10444 blocks clients: please resync your blockchain - youre on a wrong fork or sth.

[wurstgelee]

Post your peer nodes with 10444 blocks.  I tried syncing to
u4td6kbbcefoc3uj.onion
but I got stuck at 9285.

same trick as before - restart wallet a few times, maybe with connect parameter (42mhry5cap4tvvru.onion is a 10333 blocks peer).

you should then get synced to block 10333 again after a few restarts.

edit: your own howto should help you here.

[wurstgelee]

this is all still a mess. the you-have-to-restart-to-sync-bug is more than annoying.  i wrote a pm to 3angle and asked him if he's still in this or not.

let's see if and what he answers...

[StephenJH]

 

[croTek4]

is anyone actually staking?? I've had transactions for days now with no confirms.

[wurstgelee]

Are u still staking?
