COMMUNITY PROPOSAL FOR RESURRECTING QUAZARCOIN

If anyone else is interested in resurrecting this coin please follow the instructions bellow and start solo-mining, with enough hashrate QCN will fork and will be on pair with Bytecoin latest code but with a much better emission curve, coin re-branding and exchange listing could follow.


Hello,
I added support for QuazarCoin in Forknote. It will give you a daemon and simplewallet with equivalent version of Bytecoin 1.0.5.1.
To use it, download the Forknote binaries or compile them. More info here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1079306.0
Download the configuration file for QuazarCoin and save it in the 'configs' folder of Forknote:
https://github.com/forknote/configs/blob/master/quazarcoin.conf

Daemon start:
forknoted.exe --config-file configs\quazarcoin.conf
./forknoted --config-file configs/quazarcoin.conf

Simplewallet start:
simplewallet.exe --config-file configs\quazarcoin.conf
./simplewallet --config-file configs/quazarcoin.conf

How to transfer your old wallet?
Copy your .keys file to the Forknote folder. Open it with simplewallet.


If anyone with a pool want to get behind the idea we can all mine together until the fork happens.

You don't need forknote to mine (and apparently it is not compatible either; a hard fork is needed to switch). The original code still works fine. It may have unpatched vulnerabilities though, I haven't reviewed it so I don't know.

Switching to forknote is one possible direction. It means not having differentiated software with its own development (of course that is not happening anyway ATM) and being a Bytecoin clone with different parameters. I'll leave that to the community to decide, if there is one.
