Can someone help BTC38 with this? They don't know what to do..

service staff 芬芬: Please tell us how restart the anoncoin client or rebuild the blockchain, or could you ask anoncoin admin to repair it.

sounds like they are saying that anoncoin has been forked or it could be he is referring to the i2p and clearnet network, translation if pretty bad though so not 100% sure.

Anoncoin has not been forked, there have been no recent releases to fork over. I2P network is connected to the clearnet network by bridged nodes, so this is not an issue either. Maybe the chinese govt firewall is blocking them out from the rest of the network?

Ask him what the results are from "getconnectioninfo" and what is his config and version?




It appears that their client is stuck on an orphaned block. If they restart their client, the problem should solve itself. In the worst case they just need to rebuild their blockchain.
