Ok, we are on forks now.

I finally sync to block height 1051199. The block info matches with the blockchain explorer:

{
"hash" : "0875fb57859d36ce5b9d9744f843b96d1e7af91f2e5d39fc5f77dac26e10980e",

}


And according to the blockchain explorer, we have at least 7 forks at block height 1051200. Each one has different block hash and different time stamp.

That is why my wallet cannot go further beyond block height 1051199. Bittrex’s wallet should have the same issue.

Since someone raised a concern about potential attack, I’d suggest to have Jan sync to block height 1051199 first (if he has not done so) and have him to mine 1051200 onwards until he feels comfortable he should be the largest chain. This will kill all other forks currently mining from 1051200 along with attacks (if any) on these forks. And more importantly, all funds on Bittrex will be safe. We need to protect investors currently buying this coin too.

Why Jan? Just because everyone here trusts him and I suppose there is no motivation for him to attack the network. Smiley

Everyone agrees with it?

 Agreed Thank you sir.

Agreed. do i need to stop my Raspberry which are stuck at block 1051199?



Check if your block hash for 1051199 matches with the blockchain explorer or not first (just to play safe).

If it does match, just keep your Raspberry running unless Jan asks you to stop.

If it doesn’t match or it already syncs beyond 1051200, stop your Raspberry immediately.


P.S.: Everyone please check block hash now. Don’t just check block height. Block heights are meaningless under the current fork situation. For example we already have at least 7 different block hashes for the same block height 1051200.

Block hash:
Code:
getblockhash 1051199

0875fb57859d36ce5b9d9744f843b96d1e7af91f2e5d39fc5f77dac26e10980e

Confirm it is the same block as in the blockexplorer.
