FonzieCoin [FONZ] (was XFC) Now Pure PoS; Fair Launch; No ICO, No Insta/Premine

[SistaFista]

Good stuff I don't mind waiting. What to mine till then..... EmoneyCoin, i guess

[SistaFista]

You're right, looks good now:

./fonziecoind getwork

    "target" : "00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000958d0100000000"


Should I fire up the stratums ? :-)

I'm kind of busy today with family stuff. Also this is supposed to be fair. I don't want screaming from the gallows. How about in a few hours. I'll post a time. I'd really rather not blow the whole fairness thing just trying to get it launched.

Sure no prob, just let me/us know when you want to launch, I'm around

While your here 10k.suprnova.cc is down btw

[scorpio18]

Ill give it a try in about an hour

Even with the new genesis it is still stuck on block 1. Could this be a problem with stratum? This was cloned from an X-something (11, 13?) and converted to SHA-256d. Might stratum itself be rejecting the blocks?

No it is a diff /Target issue.

Just do a 'getwork' and you will see Target is 0000000000000..  A matching block can never be found (has to be smaller than Target)

I will have a close Look a little later

Yeah, it's a retarget issue.

I got it. This is real embarrassing.

Code:

CBigNum bnTargetLimit;
    if (fTestNet) {
          CBigNum bnTargetLimit = bnTestTarget; // PoS & PoW limits are same on testnet
    } else {
          CBigNum bnTargetLimit = fProofOfStake ? bnProofOfStakeLimit : bnProofOfWorkLimit;
    }

Notice how I re-initialize CBugNum in the conditional, that makes the outer CBigNum 0 always. I'm not sure why I did that. I probably copied the original line and forgot to remove the initializers.

It should be

Code:

CBigNum bnTargetLimit;
    if (fTestNet) {
          bnTargetLimit = bnTestTarget; // PoS & PoW limits are same on testnet
    } else {
          bnTargetLimit = fProofOfStake ? bnProofOfStakeLimit : bnProofOfWorkLimit;
    }

Do we want to try again at Mar. 9 UTC 7:30 AM, or stick with Mar. 10? I'd like to launch earlier. I have a functional test net so I'll mine on the testnet before launch to make sure it's working.

We'll do it if we get 6 votes yes.

I hope you will update the github to

Hmm, was it closed longer than 14 days ago ? Then it has been auto-cleaned.

EDIT: Yep, its wiped

I'm going to make a commit with a few changes. I'm going to move that ill-advised testnet junk out of GetNextTargetRequired_. I have a some mac-specific changes that need to go in. I'll update git in a couple of hours and then do my tests today. I think it's looking like we'll go with a launch for Mar. 9 UTC 7:30 AM (Mar. 9 PDT 12:30 AM). I'll change I've changed the OP.

LAUNCH TIME CONVERSIONS

Because of daylight savings, there might be some confusion about launch.

First, the time has moved to

7:30 AM UTC March 9

Make sure you convert that. To my best ability to convert it, here it is in the US Time zones (except for AZ, I think who don't engage in this nonsense):

DELAY: 1 hour

It's looking like we are going to have to delay one hour to test. New launch time is 8:30 AM UTC.

LOL. Again?

Wow, that was quick. Sitting on the edge of your seat?

I'm lying on sofa actually
Are you testing before launch?

[Paycoinzzz]

So what's the delay for this time?

I hope this time will be a good launch

And did you return the diff to standard for all sha256 diff levels?

[Shadow_Runner]

WTF with suprnova, no one pool is not working

DNS Problems currently, perfect timing for the launch

Try http://xfz.rnova.cc - the "normal" domain should be back up within 30 mins as the support says
