Some frequently asked questions:

Will Ombre change its difficulty algorithm? If so when? How do I get ready? What pool should I mine on to be ready? What software should I use to get ready?

Yes, Ombre will change its difficulty algorithm on block 72,000. You have until then to get ready!
Ombre will update to using CryptoNight Heavy.

If you are a just a user of Ombre, ensure you have the latest release of Ombre before the fork.
https://github.com/ombre-projects/ombre/releases - CLI
https://github.com/ombre-projects/OmbreGUIWallet/releases - GUI

If you are a miner make sure to contact the pool operator you are mining at to ensure they are using the latest Ombre binaries. Check to make sure your miner is compatible with CryptoNight Heavy as well.

My wallet is stuck on block XXXXX/70,000! I'm stuck at 99%! I'm stuck at 1/1 blocks synced, something is wrong here! How do I import the blockchain?

Your wallet is stuck because your node has downloaded blocks that aren't good or useful. The best way to fix this will be to delete the entire blockchain and sync from scratch using the newest updated software. The CLI wallet also comes with a Blockchain importer that allows you to import a copy of the blockchain
like this

And by using this command

Code:

ombre-blockchain-import verify 0 resume 1 input-file blockchain.raw

Should I buy Ombre? Why should I use or care about it? What makes Ombre different?

The question of if you should buy Ombre or mine it is really up to you. Ombre promises a fast(est), cheap, payment system while still keeping the strong privacy of other coins like Monero. In the future it will be easy to turn store of value coins like Bitcoin and Monero into Ombre, saving you time and money. If you think that is something worthwhile then keep an eye on the project. Ombre has big plans. We just need a little bit more time.

Thank you all for your interest in Ombre! If you have any more questions, or if I missed anything please feel free to let me or anyone else know.

Cool! another CN-heavy coin, this algorigthm is not on nicehash atm and saves more electricity compared to CNv7/1. Good luck yall
