Is there still someone with a synchronized node/wallet

Synchronized and mining.

thanks !

Hi there! Amazing project and very motivated team, it is great to be here with you all!

[mony68]

Yobit shows that the wallet is working. I can not synchronize it for several months now. Give please the working addnode

[stuffedcobalt]

Really hope your project will succeed !

Try add this node!
118.126.112.172

[mony68]

Try add this node!
118.126.112.172

Nothing changed. No active connections. Help me.

If you are using Windows, check if Teredo IPv6 tunneling is enabled. This would allow connections to IPv6 Nodes over IPv4. Most of the nodes are IPv6.

Please let us know if that fixes the issue since some people are having problems connecting to nodes.

Wallet reinstalled.
It turned out that the SOCKS proxy was enabled by default.
Thanks to all.

THIS COIN IS DEAD - LAST GITHUP ENTRY WAS 3 YEARS AGO

No updates - no nothing since then !

THIS COIN IS DEAD - LAST GITHUP ENTRY WAS 3 YEARS AGO

No updates - no nothing since then !

This coin is NOT dead, just abandoned by the Dev. I've mined it since release. Everything works. 

I'll add a summary of helpful info and the address of the NEW Block Explorer soon.

[GimmeMyCoins]

Helpful Info:


Currently Aptcoin is CPU minable only. Mine directly from the wallet.
  - There is also a stand alone CPU miner but it will need to be compiled - https://github.com/aptcoin/cpuminer

Exchange - YoBit (Price should be a lot Higher based on Coin Supply)

NEW Block Explorer - http://45.32.213.208:3002
(Donations: APT- APgkkrqV6aa7pntepmh5TERSVSJk1kxr74 BTC- 1LJgTxr6gn1y3vQKWSUDmvm7u3HR4MuNoH )


Aptcoin basics:

Project Started - August 2014
Current Coin Supply - 9.8 Million APT - No Premine
Max Coins – 42 Million APT
Block time – 5 minutes - This can be shorter or MUCH longer. This is the normal difficulty retargeting for Aptcoin.

Aptcoin Wallet Info:

cd aptcoin/src
make -f makefile.unix

Running a full Aptcoin node:

Code:

./aptcoind -daemon

Running a full Aptcoin node (while also mining):

Code:

./aptcoind -daemon -gen

Checking the status and confirmed balance:

Code:

./aptcoind getinfo

Showing combined confirmed and immature balance:

Code:

./aptcoind listaccounts

Showing mining info (your hashrate, network hashrate, etc):

Code:

./aptcoind getmininginfo

Can you imagine what will happen when N-factor 14 turns on, and even more so N-factor 15? Transactions and now hang for a few hours.
What is your answer?

Can you imagine what will happen when N-factor 14 turns on, and even more so N-factor 15? Transactions and now hang for a few hours.
What is your answer?

I did a quick check of 100 blocks (with 3 blocks over an hour) and the average block time was just over 4 minutes. It's true that the N-factor 13 blocks can take some time to solve but I have noticed major fluctuations in hash rate lately.

The developers plan was for "Every two years the range of N-factor will increase by 1" but that has not happened yet(has been a max N-factor 13 since 2014). I haven't looked at the code to find out why or if a deeper explanation was posted here.

The white paper talks about how the higher N-factors are addressed:
https://mega.nz/#!61B2jKzS!7Tho4XLnTPawRtkdbk6SF9rvn5sNkrN1LQ6NcDEezAM

Code:

 After each block is solved, AptCurve will determine how long it took for the last 10 blocks to be generated, and compare that against how long it should have taken given the expected block generation time.  If it took longer, we will decrease the difficulty, and it it took shorter, we will increase the difficulty.  Additionally, 4 other factors will come into play while making this decision.

1. We will look at the average of the N-factors of the previous 10 blocks.  If on average they were high, the actual time is expected to be longer than if they were low, so we add an additional weight to the difficulty re-target in the down direction. 
2. We look at the N-factor of the block about to be hashed.  If the current block about to be hashed is a high N-factor (i.e. on the top half of N-factor range), we also add an additional weight to the difficulty re-target in the down direction. 
3. We look to see if the N-factor of the block about to be hashed is the maximum N-factor value it can be, and if so, we add an additional weight in the down direction. 
4. Finally, we dampen the difficulty increases by capping them in a reasonable manner to avoid wild fluctuations in the upward direction should a particular sequence of 10 blocks be hashed much quicker than expected.

The difficulty re-targeting is unique and a little bit of a pain right now with spikes in the hash rate. However, it does work it out and is still super simple for someone to open a wallet and start mining Aptcoins.

I like to become a miner, but what is the mining system for your project?

I like to become a miner, but what is the mining system for your project?

Welcome! Not sure exactly what question you are asking.

General Mining Info:
Info about the coin can be found on the first page and in a post I did on January 28th (2 posts above). Also, the white paper goes into detail about how the algorithm works if that is your interest.

Quick Mining Info:
Currently Aptcoin is CPU minable only. Mine directly from the wallet.

Simply let it run in the background and collect Aptcoins.

Coin Supply hit 10 Million! Woohoo!

[maryannsoriano1145]

ooh its great coin supply but where is the updated information about this project,its now april and yet no new post

[lenart_o]

What happen?
no blocks from couple hours
it is normal?
is dev here?
