Well, few days ago everything was fine, the wallet gui works perfect and i had 10k btcz, then i opened the wallet and the famous error apear, A general unexpected critical error has occured: error : couldn´t connect to server: EOF reached (code 1) (make sure server is running and you are connecting to the correct RPC port). The solution in other thread was to erase all the archives except for the wallet.dat, didn´t work, same error. I also tried to open de wallet.dat archive in another pc, same error, well i think i am going out of this project, i lost time and energy spend mining this altcoin. If someone have another solution please let me know.



Yes! Big solution..

Stop using your malware, Trojan, keylogger infected windows PC that one day may not even boot up due to HDD blue screen error.

Get a $50 android phone and install the wallet on it . It works like a charm and you can hide it with your fiat cash and passport in the same spot.

I don't understand why everyone is crying about the windows wallet. You don't need one and in fact should not use one. I mine this coin and use it daily on several phones and never had the windows wallet.

Storing your crypto on an android phone is insane. Even more so on a $50 android.

The good news: You're not storing your crypto on an android phone. The coins are stored in the blockchain and as long as you backup the pass phrase, they're perfectly safe. You can switch to a new phone, etc. and you'll still have access to your coins.

The bad news: The Android app is "centralized". This means it relies on servers to access the blockchain since downloading the whole blockchain and making transactions via the blockchain is too much fro a phone. If the servers are offline for maintenance, you won't be able to access your coins (they will still be there, safe and sound) -- but you won't be able to access them until the servers are back online.

Wait, so my private keys are 100% on my phone, correct?

Yes, the wallet app on the phone just signs transactions and submits them to the server. No private keys are transferred.
