Hello All,

I have investigated the matter further and identified the cause of this issue and came to the conclusion that the Blockchain magic of KarmaCoin Here:

At Line :

https://github.com/karmateam/karma/blob/master-0.8/src/main.cpp#L3298


Code:
// The message start string is designed to be unlikely to occur in normal data.
// The characters are rarely used upper ASCII, not valid as UTF-8, and produce
// a large 4-byte int at any alignment.
unsigned char pchMessageStart[4] = { 0xfb, 0xc0, 0xb6, 0xdb }; // Karma: increase each by adding 2 to bitcoin's value.

These Magic Bytes should be unique but unfortunately in this case these characters contradict with many other coins thus you guys are experiencing the sync issue.

To correct this problem would require a hardfork and the community will need to agree on that.

Warm Regards,

hardfork and move on ...

get it back on track ...

#crysx

yup , everyone will need to agree on this.

as a community - i agree ...

as a fork for the coin - not really ...

the coin for the moment is going nowhere ( as far as development is concerned - not by means of trading which is doing ok ) ...

so for those who have mined and bought and baghold - this is a dead end unless something is done ...

everyone needs to voice their opinions - and i have mine ...

im for the hardfork ... so count my vote as 1 Smiley ...
