1gh doesn't pay miners  http://explorer.cryptonite.info/?address=Cd2aWqrYHBedbjvNiaArQSvts3UHp4dzuv

Not sure what happens

I have a pending payment for more than 10 hours

Not sure what happens

I have a pending payment for more than 10 hours

got my payment after ~12h maybe the payment process stopped, but it seems to work now.

See the total amount calculation in this picture

I'm not seeing anything wrong with the total amount in that pic, what is the problem you can see?

0.0012 mXCN != 1.02 uXCN

0.0012 mXCN = 1.2 uXCN

Ah I see, that is a rather strange bug, it must be something that also exists in Bitcoin because I don't think we made any changes to cause a bug like that.

So, How can we report that?

And by the way, The first two "Conflicted" transactions turned to be "Unknown" with a red square beside it instead of "!" sign

Unknown typically means that you don't have the block which contains the tx in question. As I mentioned before, Cryptonite wont download the full blockchain when you sync. You can find out if the tx actually exists in the main blockchain by checking our block explorer. As for reporting that bug, we need to determine whether it also exists in Bitcoin before we do anything about it.

And how would we do that?

The fee here was because it has a lot of inputs, and If you wish I can do the process again to cause a lot of inputs with the same amount with a new cryptonite wallet and give you the wallet file to trace the code.

[AhmedMSedeek]

Hello,

I have two important things here

First: For the "Conflicted" status I'm pretty sure now of the reason it caused it as I said before because I tested it manually twice and it did the exact same thing.

OR it may had a small period without any connections, and when the connection is back, it didn't broadcast the transactions that was created while offline to the network.

You can test this yourself using the following scenario:

1. Open cryptonite client while causing some load on the internet connection (open a download or something) to cause a delay before it gets any connections.
2. Create a transaction while no connections exists.
3. After getting some connections wait for that transaction to be confirmed, And guess what, It'll never be because it didn't broadcast to the network.

Second: For the bug, I've regenerated the exact situation and had the exact result, so if you wish you can tell me how to send you the wallet file to trace the code, Or you can make the way to it - It's so simple

1. Create a brand new wallet with 12 addresses.
2. Send 0.0000001000 XCN to each address and wait for them to be confirmed.
3. Try to send 0.0000010000 from the newly created wallet.
4. You will get the same message that I had with the false calculated total amount.


I don't know how to test this in Bitcoin client.

every time I check the characteristics of mini-blockchain system I think is really amazing. 

Hi,

I'm new to Cryponite, downloaded the wallet and extra on Windows 7 64bit. Ran it, but it always locks up on 6 days under the point "Downloading Header".

I don't know a lot about this stuff and was wondering if anyone had newbie fix tips for this problem?

I added a config file and tried re downloading the Blockchain.

Thank You

Hello,

Close the program, Remove the addresses you added from the conf file, Delete "peers.dat" file, Start the program again and wait.

That worked for me.

Where do you find the Config file ?

I searched and found -Alienware\AppData\Roaming\Cryptonite  but no config file

I deleted the peers dat file and restarted anyway

I thought you added them through the cryptonite.conf file.

"cryptonite.conf" is not there by default.

What you did should be enough, But if you want to do more work, You should forward port 8253 to your PC's local IP Address.

[bitfreak!]

First: For the "Conflicted" status I'm pretty sure now of the reason it caused it as I said before because I tested it manually twice and it did the exact same thing.

Hmmm ok, that's good to know. I'm thinking that might be another bug in Bitcoin but I highly doubt such a major thing would have gone unnoticed so long.

Second: For the bug, I've regenerated the exact situation and had the exact result, so if you wish you can tell me how to send you the wallet file to trace the code, Or you can make the way to it - It's so simple

I don't need your wallet file, but I wont be able to check these bugs myself until tomorrow because I don't have access to any of my own pc's right now.

@Gazzasilver: just delete everything in your ~\AppData\Roaming\Cryptonite folder start fresh. Backup your wallet.dat file first if you have any coins. If you still have problems after that you'll need to create the cryptonite.conf file and add some of the nodes posted earlier.

There's a lot of talk about scalability at the moment, if mainly technical rather than alt-coin action.  And not a lot of mention of Cryptonite. How do you guys see Cryptonite fitting in to all of this, and becoming more prominent?

[CasualSam]

See the total amount calculation in this picture

I'm not seeing anything wrong with the total amount in that pic, what is the problem you can see?

0.0012 mXCN != 1.02 uXCN

0.0012 mXCN = 1.2 uXCN

Ah I see, that is a rather strange bug, it must be something that also exists in Bitcoin because I don't think we made any changes to cause a bug like that.

bitcoinunits.cpp line 99

Code:

int BitcoinUnits::decimals(int unit)
{
    switch(unit)
    {
    case XCN: return 10;
    case mXCN: return 7;
    case uXCN: return 5;
    default: return 0;
    }
}

uXCN should be returning 4 not 5

[bitfreak!]

@CasualSam: thanks for tracking down the source of the problem, it looks like it was a change we made after all. I think it's just a graphical glitch, so it shouldn't affect anything, but I'll get it fixed in the next release.

[bitfreak!]

There has been a lot of talk about scalability for a long time. The Mini-blockchain Scheme will remain the most scalable cryptocurrency scheme for the foreseeable future. The best proposal I have seen for pruning Bitcoin is the Ultimate Blockchain Pruning Scheme but I haven't seen it successfully implemented and it still has several disadvantages compared to the Mini-blockchain Scheme. I think as the scalability issue becomes more prominent within Bitcoin and other Bitcoin-based coins which require the full blockchain to be stored, people will start to appreciate the Mini-blockchain Scheme much more than they do now. But I also know that Cryptonite wont succeed unless I can build a market around it and give people something to spend their XCN on.
