[ANN][CLOAK] Private, Secure, Untraceable & Decentralized Digital Currency

[YackBallz]

Yackballz, after rebooting, I tried to send you 600 Cloak with activated PoSA (2/2).
Doesn't show in transactions list, but in PoSA3 Stats tab, it displays as Failed.
The 100 I sent you regular way displays in Transactions, but 0 confirmations on 4, did you receive them ?

Mstang83 : did you receive the 2 Cloak I sent you  with activated PoSA (2/2) ? In PoSA3 Stats tab, it displays as Complete, but Transaction tab 0 on 4 confirmations.

Yackballz : I received your 10000, 25 confirmations. Before rebooting, they were in my wallet balance Overview, after rebooting my balance was without your 10000, they displayed in PoSA processing, and now a minute ago they went bak in Balance of wallet...

I still have in Overview 22.656 CLOAK Unconfrimed, don't know what it is...

There is definitely a problem with addresses labels : when I do Edit label in Receive coins tab, it changes the label of the address below the line I selected.
And the wrong stealth address 1Wh4bh came back from nowhere, replacing the stealth address of a recently created stealth address (that shwoed only and correctly after a reboot, but now wrong after a second reboot)

Sorry to say but this RC1 seems more to be a beta or even an alpha for me. But I understand it is a very hard work to develop. Many thanks.

Ratatosk thanks again. Could you please go to the console in the wallet and enter 'repairwallet' and let us know if it restores any coins for you.

[Ratatosk]

This fucking wrong stealth address is moving randomly between the addresses I created in Receive coins ! Sometime when I try to change a label (whiwh changes the lable of an other address...) or not.

I succed one time to send CLoak with activated PoSA (2/2) to Mstang83 (did you recive them ?), after that when I try again to Yackballz it fails, as shown in PoSA3 Stats tabs. I will try to send you some again, with and without PoSA.

[Ratatosk]

Done :

{
"mismatched spent coins" : 7,
"amount affected by repair" : 10150.00000000
}

I reboot

[Ratatosk]

Great mess, balance now shows more than 19000, but I only received 10300 since the begining of test.

I will erase current install and Roaming directory and try again from clean install.

How did transferring live coins to your testnet wallet work out for you?

[Ratatosk]

Did not work, I tried from Bittrex but "Invalid"

You're lucky the crypto key rules behind crypto currencies saved you from losing them.

Anyway, why are you using stealth addresses in a test to determine the efficiency of PoSA3 and onion routing?

[Ratatosk]

I thought testing was about testing all possible available options

For now, during my new wallet install is syncronizing, please send me some Cloak to the regular first default regular address provided by the wallet, so I will be able to send Cloak for testing purpose...

5000 sent to you. You'll get it momentarily.

I've seen a couple of my PoSA3 transactions complete. Just keep playing with it.

Thanks for testing and have fun!

[Ratatosk]

Thank for the 5000 + 1000 I received for "playing" :-)

I will try to send to others.

So, we can send to regular addresses without activating PoSA (2/2) and to regular adresses with PoSA (2/2) activated ?

But not yet begin to test stealth addresses ?

Is that right ?

Can we change the PoSA sending parameters ? To 5/7 or 6/4, for example ?

By the way, very strange, in this new install I created a stealth address, and again, the 1Wh4bh address showed up !!!
After reboot, this stealth address became smYpZ8DHfexL7hxGGUyWDZjHExzb5mTAV95wLobzQ5Lo78GMaaq11yyMM6ZhtVjYEgbRV46rMXLi4ZS 7CZBPyazSH8Fezgek5AsoD7 in Receive coins tab, but in Address book it is still 1Wh4bh associated to the same label !

Thanks.

Stealth addresses are not configured for this test wallet. Consider it a relic of the qt wallet design.

You can change the parameters of the PoSA3 transaction; I got one through with 6/6. Whether it goes through or not depends on how many wallets are connected and if those wallets have enough coins, and some other stuff.

[Ratatosk]

OK thanks

Mstang83 I sent you 133 without PoSA, did you receive ? 0 Confirmations
I sent you 166 with PoSA (2/2) but : Failed.

YackBallz, I sent you 210 without PoSA, did you receive ? 0 Confirmations
I sent you 240 with PoSA (2/2) but : Expired.

I received 676, 4 confirmations.

Silly question : I checked the options (onionroute...), must TOR be running in background

No, you don't need TOR at all for onion routing with Cloak. The onion routing is built into Cloak Shield inside the Cloak wallet. You can run Cloak over the top of TOR and get Cloak Shield and TOR together, but it will be slower and is probably overkill.

Expired PoSA sends will never confirm, if there is no transaction-ID listed on the PoSA status page next to an entry, then there was no PoSA transaction created. It is safe to try and send again. We are discussing the possibility of having the wallet auto-resend if a PoSA request times out. What do people think about this?

[Ratatosk]

Yes I think auto resent could be great, if we can disable it manually for each transaction when we decide, or if we can tell a maximum time or times to try again before auto cancel

[exslave]

About the auto resend: last night i expressed my opinion that i prefered a manual resend...

 but after some thought i think an auto resend would be less confusing for newbies and less prone to "wtf!" confusions, then, if after a number of failed auto-resend atempts the wallet should revert to manual send with a message why it couldnt make the transaction

[Ratatosk]

Since I woke up today, only 1 on 13 PoSA activated transactions succeed...

[exslave]

I think its because tesnet network is so small, how many cloakers did you select?

[Ratatosk]

Most of the time, 2/2 PoSA settings

[Kimowa]

everyone use the POSA works well for me

I have made many tests and everything is fine. some small faults occur as a small network (test) and must be activated to produce the necessary setgenerate blocks.
I am every day more convinced that this team will be able to launch a wallet with a unique technology.
