When I download it and open it up it says 0 connections and won't sync?? I don't know why it won't because before I downloaded that malicious link I had a perfectly working OPAL wallet

The malicious version of the wallet apparently had some additional seed servers ("addnodes") hard-coded into it.

Do you know how to create/edit the opalcoin.conf file?

If you do, just add these lines to it and then restart your wallet:

addnode=seeds.altcoin.center
addnode=seeds.altcoincenter.eu
addnode=seeds.altcoincenter.us

addnode=192.99.111.227
addnode=198.50.151.86
addnode=5.196.226.54
addnode=5.196.29.188


If you need assistance in locating or creating the file, please let me know which operating system you're using and I'll walk you through the process. =)

Well I would have to create a brand new conf file so if you could post that for me then and I'll add the other nodes with it and we can see if that works k Smiley Because I've deleted everything OPAL off my computer

Ok. Here's a sample opalcoin.conf file for you:

==================================================
daemon=1
dnsseed=1

server=1
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcuser=opalcoinrpc
rpcpassword=ChangeThisToARandomString

addnode=seeds.altcoin.center
addnode=seeds.altcoincenter.eu
addnode=seeds.altcoincenter.us

==================================================

The location of the file depends on which operating system you're using.

If it's windows 7 or 8, then the file would be located at

C:\Users\YourUserAccount\AppData\Roaming\Opalcoin

The AppData folder is hidden so you'll have to go to the View tab in Windows File Explorer and make sure the Hidden items checkbox is checked in order to see the folder.

Yours,

Jyri

This may sound really stupid but what is a random string? Just any combinations of numbers I determine? like 123456?

I really appreciate the help mate but it still didn't work and the only reason I can think of is my .conf file supposed to be named Opal.conf or Opalcoin.conf?

Not a stupid question at all - "random string" is nerd talk. =D

And yes, just a combination of characters - preferably numbers and big and small letters, i.e. N8VKFmGcqY84Brsrb5Nt

Ok, well this is weird.

The correct name is Opalcoin.conf - unless I'm very badly mistaken, which does happen sometimes although rarely. Grin

So you're using Windows, right? And found the folder I was referring to earlier?

You could try adding the seed nodes by their IP addresses:

addnode=192.99.111.227
addnode=198.50.151.86
addnode=5.196.226.54
addnode=5.196.29.188

123456 is very insecure - especially now that you've published it here. =P

It is important to use secure RPC password in order not to get your coins stolen.

I'm sorry to hear it didn't work out - and genuinely curious about why that is so.

It's good that you got your funds staking in the web wallet anyways!

Ya things will be a lot better if I can get someone to dump into my buys then my New Years can start off right with 1 of the 4 coins I am holding for the majority of the year because I feel they have great potential and OPALcoin is definitely one of them Wink

Altcoin.Center in co-operation with F-Secure & OPAL hereby announce the availability of

F-Secure Safe anti-malware subscriptions using OPAL

Despite it's relatively young age, the crypto currency scene has already faced several malware based attacks.

False wallets with built-in coin- and password stealing trojans are a reality.

Users of all crypto currencies must have means to protect their valuables against theaves and forgeries.

As one of the first fruits of the ongoing co-operation between Altcoin.Center, F-Secure and OPAL, we are happy and proud to announce the availability of the F-Secure Safe anti-malware software using OPAL as a payment method.

Read the full announcement at https://altcoin.center/safe/

~ ~ ~ Happy new year! ~ ~ ~


This is major!

Hey, would anyone happen to have the infamous hacked/trojaned version of the OPAL wallet available?

I'd like to send it to F-Secure's lab for detailed examination.

Some people asked me how big this is and what it means for opal.   This is huge!

F-Secure has a $300m marketcap, and is publicly traded.  Let that sink in.

Now, consider the fact that they don't accept any cryptocurrency, not even bitcoin, but opal, because that's who they trust.  Let that sink in.

Now consider they even sell discounted licenses to opal users, because that's who they support.  Let that sink in.

Next time someone calls opal a shitcoin, just remember the backing of a 300m dollar company is quite bigger than a silly FUDer.

To be completely honest, i've never heard of the security software. However, I think it's a huge step for both Opal community as well as the crypto world. Opal has gained another partner and the crypto world has gained a new adopter. This is great for everyone. Well done.
