if you rollback after weeks, your coin is dead!

The thing is that rollback has to be after fix, and fix needs to verify. We surely try to make it happen ASAP. Let me know your suggestions.

Mining at Suprnova is not working for me using the Magi minner. Anybody else having this issue?

[Windozxpert]

At this point I was looking at how many times i got peers disconnected due to ERROR: ProcessBlock() : block with too little proof-of-work.
The proper chain told poolinfo that this is the block 10 times and actually disconnected and banned all 10 peers telling poolinfo about the proper block.

So to test my theory out, I increased banscore in magi.conf to 500 with

Code:

banscore=500

The debug log dropped from ~620MB to ~62MB in size (about the same running time +- a few hrs) + was able to recover from when poolinfo got invalid blocks.
I've seen in poolinfo logs block that was accepted but later on ORPHAN because the right chain was presented to poolinfo and thus got back on the right track.

So if you like to test this too, add this to
magi.conf

Code:

banscore=500

You might need to resync the chain if you are on a fork.

To test this properly, we are going to need to mine it. Anyone willing to try this out?

I'll throw some hashes that way to test. Where do you want it to go? Not that I have a whole lot, I think it was around 1 or 2 Mhs. I'm sure zpool would love to jump on that testing train with you. They've been adding and removing m7m the past few days constantly.

That is the reason why I've send all my miners to my own wallet and created my own small pool to just keep mining. Don't care if it's going to be roll back or not. My wallets are on same chain as https://chainz.cryptoid.info/xmg/ and https://poolinfo.systms.org/ and I can see found blocks confirmed and created.

Will see what will happen.
Either way, feel free to use mine as long as it will keep running...

your pools offline, you went scamming with the coins? more than 120 blocks generated with you.

Nope. Just fixed the daemon. Wasn't reporting confirms. Now running again

I support dev, coin will dead if we will not do anything.

Since all pools are down that i know of, solomining would be the only way to go right now.

Joe is talking about a rollback (see couple of posts above). Solo mining in this moment is waste of energy. Better wait until the situation will be clarified. I have the feeling that it'll be sorted very soon, community is helping.

[orcanice]

Should'nt there be a warning sent out to users that dosen't read/use this forum? eg on the website before announcing a rollback. So they have a chance so shut down their mining else it would be a huge loss for some of them. - thats just my opinion.

I know, was asking if people would like to test my theory - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=735170.msg21124786#msg21124786

Have to agree here not everyone is reading these forums, Hell most of the links on the website point to older wallets. the chain has been chugging along fine the last X hours for some so the could not know anything. anything other then a future rollback point which is announced everywhere not just here in a single response of 800+ comments. Even though the exchange might be offline people could still be doing transactions.

[oVPN]

magi.conf

Code:

banscore=500
maxconnections=128
connect=104.128.225.215

add following to enable staking:

Code:

staking=1
posii=1

[malafaya]

Mind that poolinfo.systms.org and 104.128.225.215 are currently on different chains. Not sure if that's what you want to test.

[oVPN]

@malafaya, please remove quote text, that's useles to quote directly on next post. thank you.

sorry, did not know that. all our nodes are @1451367 now, where is 104.128.225.215?

got it: 104. is @1450926

shutting down all nodes...

As Magi knows more details i will try to reach as much people i can with different forums, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, trollboxen from the different exchanges and other social media.

To make things clear for people: hold with transactions until updates are released!!

is anyone against a rollback???

[My9bot]

is anyone against a rollback???

A blockchain[1][2][3] – originally block chain[4][5] – is a continuously growing list of records, called blocks, which are linked and secured using cryptography.[1][6] Each block contains typically a hash pointer as a link to a previous block,[6] a timestamp and transaction data.[7] By design, blockchains are inherently resistant to modification of the data.

To ALL,

The fork takes place from one pool to another, and that I believe something fundamental needs a clarification as we haven't seen this before. This has messed around the mining. I suggest stop mining at this time until we firstly 1) get a keep-it-going solution, and 2) root cause finding and a solution to the fork. The mining just going on, unfortunately, doesn't make sense to me, and I would propose a rollover back to a fair point. Let me know if rollover sounds good to you, and where you want to startover.

Here I am going to nail down the plan that we believe better suite for the current situation, and make the corresponding wallet release at tonight.

1) A keep-it-going solution:

* New wallet release
* A Main Block chain from a starting point block #, afterwards, you can mine on that and all mining will be valid

Though I prefer starting from where all pools were down, pls vote for rollback vs non-rollback (rollback see my prior post) if this is still the case

Detail information will be posted.

In this period, I expect options of mining:

* Solo mining
* Mining through pools, such as, P2Pool, NOMP if one can offer that I can see easy work compared to MPOS
* MPOS if anyone would like to offer

2) Fix

This will be a parallel effort; as to how will be posted. Once Fix is done, we will bring fix to the main chain.

This is a balanced solutions to keep us going as I can see. I will make 1) to happen later today; guide will be posted.

My vote: Pick up where the pools left off. No rollback.

[sCyborg]

Yeah preferably no rollback.
