Re: [ANN] Bitcredit/CRE - first sidechain, claimable from Bitcoin, pow/pod

Whenever I launch the bitcredit QT, I keep getting "Bitcredit: No block source available..." "2 weeks behind"
What's that about o.O

the bitcoin is synching just fine, 4 yrs 3 weeks behind right now

Give it time to connect to the network.. Mine took about 2 minutes before it say peers on the bitcredit network.

I've had the QT launched for about 15 minutes now :/
Bitcoin sync is at 3 yrs 30 weeks now ----- 8 active connections to the network
Bitcredit still No block source available ----- 6 active connections to the network

When I synced up I had to wait for the bitcoin blockchain to sync before it would sync the bitcredit blockchain.

May I ask if you did get it to work eventually?

Yes it started working after about 1.5 days of syncing (bitcoin), I was able to start mining shortly after.

I had some issues with a memory leak or maybe just the client using alot of memory while syncing the BTC bockchain.

I just want to add, this is an interesting coin. I think I'll keep mining it with one of my computers.

I am currently using the BitcoinQT wallet to sync my bootsrap to attempt to mine this.. It's taking almost 500MB of ram.
The Bitcredit on the other hand was only taking around 325MB while running.. Not bad.

Would you mind giving an explanation on how you have used the bootstrap to get the client running, in the "normal" bitcoin way or some other way?

And do you mean that you have gotten a miner started?
