How do we know what nodes to add? Where can we find that info?

I don't think they HAVE to be specified. I don't have any specifically defined and my wallet currently has 11 connections to the Magi-Network.

You are right, they don't - however, adding those nodes makes the initial sync time reduce and reduces the chances of ending up on a potentially forked chain, I always add those in to my config

For more nodes you can always check the network page on here and view some nodes per wallet version...

Hello,

There is an issue with Magi, looks like chain split. Seems many pools affected

I'm unable to check if I have any issues from where I am as I'm away from my wallet - there do seem to be a few orphaned blocks again today

what is the block reward for POW on XMG?

Right now I have Orphans from (6011383)   2018-04-07 12:50:16 to (6025313)   2018-04-07 18:15:03 according to my account transactions on pom.m-hash.com.

I joined this project yesterday, tried mining since this time and last 4 hours were only orphaned blocks at pool mining (trying suprnova).
Sad but I'm hodl'ing on  

Edit:
Maybe I missed it but is there also a discord channel?

Probably been said, but I can't run the latest wallet without it being seen as a virus. Any fix to that? Or do I gotta wait for the next update, my xmg doesn't stake either way. But I thought it was cause of having under 30. Anyway. Thanks for any help.

I'm assuming you D/Led it from one of the pools so it isn't a virus.  I avoided that by opening my virus checker ( Win 10 - Windows Defender ) and specifying that the directory containing my miners and wallets were to be excluded from its checks. Under /Settings\, scroll down to Exclusions, [Add an Exclusion], detail the directory containing your wallet .exe file. I excluded the whole folder, but you can exclude just the .exe, your choice.

That did it for me.

I'm worrying that bittrex will delist this coin since the volume is so low.
Any opinions ?

In the past they gave a warning if 2 week volume was less than 0.3BTC per day, and gave a coin 2 weeks to increase volume - I think we are still within those parameters, but could certainly do with a bit more volume, its been pretty quiet on the magi front lately

something's wrong with the chain!

[earl3000]

something's wrong with the chain!

Why do you say/think that something is wrong? 3 hours ago everything seemed fine, but I'm no expert.

hashrate insanely dropped. Many orphaned blocks... almost all last blocks are orphaned

Someone is currenty trying / doing an attack on magi and is orphaning most blocks..

It looks like the attacker has several manipulated nodes which simpy exclude legit blocks and he overwrites them with his manipulated blocks. As long as he has the majority and enough hash, there's not much that I can do about it without getting the coin itself fixed... He is also sucessfull in lowering the difficulty on his chain, so the rewards on his blocks are > 40 XMG instead of the normal 8-11 XMG...

A pity..

Something is wrong the chain. Everhting tets Orphand. Look at Zpool.

Miner 795   total has 36.5 MH/s but only Orphand blocks.

nope. wish i did as i see you have thoroughly addressed it. SO XMG seems to be doomed. The attacker has majority nodes and POW.

actualy it's fixable.. Just the reorg's need to be disallowed if X blocks time are before the last valid blocks.. As it's simply impossible.
