Well we've been discussing via email as well.

Syncing the wallet from 0 is taking a long time. Several days in I'm still barely half way there. If there's a way to speed it up please advise. Thanks

Hi. Sync shouldn't take that long since there are lots of nodes.

You can try the bootstrap.dat method. That should be much faster.

presume focus is on volume, approaching that way without out it makes no sense

try more community building first with way out of ordinary methods (thinking)

you can't get something without giving something sometimes i guess - or am i just stupid

It's hard to say what their criteria is (the didn't say specifics) considering a particular coin on their service has less than $10 worth of volume.

But Shapeshift did mention that Jumbucks is up for consideration.

imo they're playing a little too safe and cautious (considering the coins they've strictly added) - works both ways I guess

someone might just step in and offer a wider service soon if they don't change strategy or maybe not

just random ramblings

I am a bit disgusted how much nonsense coins are launched everyday. I missed most of them and that was probably a good thing, but of course I cant unfollow anymore.

Nice work jyap. ty.

Jumbucks New Wallet Version 1.8 - Maintenance update with directory name changes

Hi all,

A new wallet version 1.8 has been released for Jumbucks. This is a relatively minor update but does require some interaction from the user for upgrading as the data directory has been renamed. For existing users, please pay attention to the Upgrade steps below. New users may install the wallet as is.

For Windows users this update also includes standalone executable wallets for 32-bit and 64-bit systems.

Other improvements include new RPC commands and faster start up times.

Upgrade steps:

The data directory and configuration file has been renamed. This change was necessary to fully deprecate the old CoinmarketsCoin name to switch over to Jumbucks.

• Backup your wallet.dat file
• Shut down the current version 1.7 wallet
• Rename the data directory the the new name described below. Rename configuration file (if you manually created one) from coinmarketscoin.conf to jumbucks.conf
• Install the new version
• Start up the new version 1.8 wallet and verify everything works
• Windows users MAY need to follow the step of deleting everything in their data directory except for their wallet.dat file since the wallet is in a new executable format. This would require a full resync of the blockchain and steps to sync from a bootstrap.dat file are included below.

OLD data directory

Code:

Windows < Vista: C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\CoinmarketsCoin
Windows >= Vista: C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\CoinmarketsCoin
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/CoinmarketsCoin
Unix: ~/.coinmarketscoin

NEW data directory

Code:

Windows < Vista: C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Jumbucks
Windows >= Vista: C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Jumbucks
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Jumbucks
Unix: ~/.jumbucks

Download links:

Github: https://github.com/jyap808/jumbucks/releases/tag/v1.8

Changes:

• Updated some QT wallet images such as the splash screen
• Added getwalletinfo RPC call
• RPC command liststealthaddresses - Multiple address fix
• RPC command liststealthaddresses - Results reformatted to be consistent with rest of RPC calls
• RPC command sendtoaddress - Call sendtostealthaddress if passed a stealth address
• RPC command sendtoaddress & sendtostealthaddress - Reordered params moving narration to end
• OpenSSL DER fix to allow for latest versions of OpenSSL
• Decrease the default number of blocks to check at startup to 500
• Modify DNS seeds to use getjumbucks.com domain and deprecate old coinmarketscoin.com domain
• Remove redundant stake modifier checkpoints checks
• Reduce nStakeCombineThreshold to 500 for smoother network staking

Bootstrap.dat file:

The Bootstrap.dat allows a new Jumbucks client (not synced) to rapidly import the initial blocks from a local file instead of slowly downloading blocks from random peers. This significantly reduces the time it takes to get a client synced with the current blockchain (minutes instead of hours). Simply having bootstrap.dat in Jumbucks' expected data directory will make your initial block sync much faster.

The current Bootstrap file is at block 414,811 (May 25, 2015).

Regardless of your operating system use the following steps to make use of the bootstrap.dat file:

• Download bootstrap.dat.xz
• Verify the integrity of bootstrap.dat.xz with the checksums.
• Decompress to obtain bootstrap.dat.
• Put it into the Jumbucks datadir. This is the same folder that contains wallet.dat and the blocks folder.
• Delete bootstrap.dat.old if you want to recover some storage space.

Signed version tag:

This version has been tagged and signed as v1.8 in Git.  Verify it using my GPG public key on https://keybase.io/jyap.

Code:

$ git tag -v v1.8
object 2a187cd3379512b1b1c3228ad80bab4a9ce7d638

Jumbucks Slack - Open to all!

Cultivating a strong community is very important for a coin but something that is often neglected or overlooked by its creators.  In contrast, Jumbucks cryptocurrency was originally built around an IRC community called #coinmarkets, and since then has focused upon growing and strengthening the larger cryptocurrency community.

Technology surrounding the cryptocurrency scene is in a constant state of flux, so it's imperative that a coin have the ability to adapt and change with the times.

Jumbucks has long had a dedicated IRC channel on Freenode but oftentimes this medium of communication can be limiting.  There is a learning curve involved with IRC that is not inviting for newcomers, and they are also at risk from scammers who lurk in channels to prey on new users.

Because of this, we have ported the custom existing commands from the Jumbucks IRC channel into Jumbucks Slack.  As time progresses, we will be improving the Jumbucks Slack experience with custom bots, new functionality, and other interactive elements.

My vision for Jumbucks is that it will always be a welcoming community where both oldtimers and people new to cryptocurrencies can feel welcome.  Jumbucks Slack will always be open to everyone and there are no requirements for members to be a Jumbucks supporter or holder.

Joining bonus and referral program

That being said, we want to take this opportunity to welcome each newcomer to our growing community with a gift of 20 $JBS. Also, you can earn 5 additionally $JBS for every person you refer to the Slack channel, to a maximum of 10 referals. (This program is subject to change.)

To claim your free $JBS, please join the #referrals channel in Jumbucks Slack and mention your claim--payouts will be done manually.

We hope you can all join us in Jumbucks Slack!

Sign up to Jumbucks Slack at slack.getjumbucks.com

Jumbucks is a Fair Launch cryptocurrency which launched in September 2014 without an IPO and with zero premine.  Jumbucks currently runs as 100% Proof of Stake, and is currently traded on Bittrex and Cryptsy.  Find out more information at GetJumbucks.com.

Jumbucks Fantasy Football
 
The 1st Annual Jumbucks Fantasy Football season is up and running! Twelve players from a variety of interests and backgrounds have signed up and the smack talk has already begun. For some of the players this represents their first taste of cryptocurrency, while others are are established members of the Jumbucks community taking their first punt at fantasy sports. We look forward to seeing both groups smack talk throughout the season, and anticipate several new Jumbucks and cryptocurrency fans by the time the competition completes.
 
The league buy in was 20 USD worth of $JBS. Five members of the Jumbucks community also donated to increase the prize pool, so many thanks to Julian, Xocel, Sicarious, Saintgermaine, Bittrex Bill and Takeshi for their donations and support of Jumbucks. Calculating the player buy-ins, plus the donations, the total prize pool is up to 10,000 $JBS! This prize pool will be held and staked in a wallet managed by the Jumbucks devs until the league finishes.  The league’s 1st place winner will receive 65% of the pool in addition to the stake, 2nd place will receive 25%, and 3rd place will receive 10%.

The league will kick off with a draft on Saturday September 5th and will run all the way through week 16 of the NFL season. If you want to check out the league channel and talk some smack with the league players, head over to http://slack.getjumbucks.com/ and join  #jbs-fantasy-football. While all twelve spots in the league are already filled, you are invited to reserve a position in the event that one of the current players has to drop out. If enough additional interest is raised then there could be an opportunity to create a second league. We look forward to a fun season, and invite you to drop in the Jumbucks Slack channel to welcome all the newcomers to Jumbucks.

Jumbucks is a Fair Launch cryptocurrency which launched in September 2014 without an IPO and with zero premine.  Jumbucks currently runs as 100% Proof of Stake, and is currently traded on Bittrex, Bleutrade and Cryptsy.  Find out more information at GetJumbucks.com.
