I downloaded the Blockchain again because of errors, but now i am getting this error... Your local wallet hasn't started yet. It can take up to 10 minutes to start up. Try it again later.
This is usal way! Please be patient and wait for the complete start of the wallet a couple of minutes. You can recheck by clicking "Local wallet" from time to time until you got the Login screen.

Was the Burst network itself DDOSed or was it just the website and the web wallet?
I also want to know how far in development is Proof of Capacity in concern with security and its efficiency? And are there more developments coming? Ty.
The network was SPAM attacked: it was flooded with transactions that caused stable nodes to run out of memory and drop, causing the chain to fork. As well, a number of pools/forums were DDOSd. All is well now though (1 chain, forums and pools online). That sounds really bad for project that aims to be used as a currency. What did the developers do fix the fork? Did they roll back the blockchain to kill the fork? Will the same spam attack work and fork Burst again?

Hi there I am mining Burst again after 1 year off. I have read some posts here to check out what I missed last year. So I got some questions Burst seems to be at the same problems as past year. (Too few people know it, set up is to difficult for normal users, ...) Also saw that many faucets are empty, many websites not working many Pools are offline, ... Could anyone tell me what happened and what would be good for bust to come up? I have some effort to do something for burst. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Also would be glad if anybody knows how to clone burst just for learning. greetings Burst was doing well (nearly 1000 satoshi/ burst), then it was DDOS attacked. Time will tell if it recovers, in the mean time i've just started mining again https://burst.cryptoguru.org/I was getting regular burst dividends from a couple burst assets, they haven't been paying lately though. BURST still seems to be getting DDOS attacks on a lot of it's infrastructure, and many pools have never come back (I have yet to see Haitch bring back ANY of his pools, for example) and the ones that HAVE come back have at least intermittent issues with "can't confirm deadlines in a timely way" that appear to be related to this issue. The "spam attack" does seem to be over and dealt with. SIA and MAID are the "rent hard drive space" coins - though there is an ASIC announced for SIA, no idea how THAT is supposes to work. I know his 0-100 pool is up. As a general rule though: a number of pools/resources are under intermittent attack. The BN piece of the community very much so has the "if you're not with us, you're against us" mentality, so most people believe they're behind the attacks (as their infrastructure is rarely attacked). In Sia, renting out disc space and mining the Sia coin are separate tasks. It uses PoW, and simply has the feature that you can use the token to rent/buy drive space. ASICS will simply mean a shift of hardware for miners.

This happens automatically, with no dev input needed. I'm pretty sure this is how most chains work. In Ethereum, those blocks are called uncles I believe... Yes, a new version was pumped out to fix the vulnerability. Release notes aren't detailed, but it improves the unconfirmed tx queue such that full nodes (or even regular clients) won't be shut down if the network gets stressed. https://github.com/burst-team/burstcoin/releases

IncludeBeer explained it best. In short though, a user sent 3000+ (tough to get actual details) max sized messages all at once. That basically caused every node to have to chug to process those messages and they all got out of sync causing a few forks.
So, it wasn't something like a 51% attack where false info was added to the blockchain, but it uncovered a severe vulnerability for stopping burst from working in general.
Things are back on track, but there was a dip in Burst price that seems to be recovering.

Are you a developer or a contributor in Burst? I noticed you have the Burst icon on. Anyway another thing I want to know is Proof of Capacity's development still progressing? I think its the feature that will give Burst more value than the others.

Interesting weekly report. Its good to learn that there are a few new developers prepared to help and drive Burst forward. The sentiment also sounds more positive now which is almost as important as anything else...

Kinda good that these vulnerabilities are showing up now and being sorted while Burst is still flying under the radar. That said, it is currently showing a 64% price increase on Bittrex, putting it right at the top of page 1 !!

I'd prefer a slow and steady rise, but with that low MktCap it's hard to achieve that. You buy BURST for 10 BTC and the market moves already. I do expect BURST to hit 1000 Sat still in 2017 and this will not be the final word on it. Only a first statement.

Hi all, I've just done plotting my HDD. Appreciate anyone that can send me some bursts to start mining. BURST-GAWK-PRAW-RTJS-E5MQA Also, my plot is only 600GB. Does anyone has any mining pool to recommend? ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) Thanks in advanced!

I am still hoping some of the Burst assets get better. Most of the two Bitcoin worth of Burst assets we purchased are almost worthless now and most are not paying. All the arguments between the two forums, killed our assets and us asset holders were the ones who lost the most. I still feel gutted about this and my Wife also is very sad that 2 BTC is almost wiped out and worthless.

That moves it from >100 rank to ~50. Granted, there's some strange coins that I haven't heard of in the 40-60 bracket, but it's still a huge move to make for a coin that's been around for 3 years. Possible, absolutely, especially with positive news and devs on board.. a bit of a stretch for end of this year imo.

Hi
Is there anyone who can tell me how to clone this coin? I really want to get deeper into Burst and understand much more about it. (whats on with the Genisis Block, how the proof of capacity works, etc...) I searched the Internet but the information for development usage are really rare.
greetings
