Yes. I agree with you arcmetal. Bastillar is soon releasing an explorer for Sprouts Classic and will provide an update probably tomorrow. So now is choosing an exchange. You have mentioned Yobit as one exchange. Bastillar mentioned Crypto Hub as another possible exchange. What is the best plan to get it onto an exchange as jennyblockchain mentioned pooling together a donation which I am in favor. Any other suggestions?

I did just notice a sticky problem. The sproutsHF group didn't rename their source code, so they are the ones holding the name "sprouts" and the ticker symbol "SPRT". This is what exchanges use to distinguish between coins. They won't allow two different coins with the same ticker symbol.

The only solution is a windows, and linux re-compile of the original sprouts code, and a name change to maybe "sprouts-classic" and ticker symbol "SPRTC", or something along these lines. ...

Then the users holding the original sprouts coins will have to update to this new wallet. Which, of course, includes simply saving their "wallet.dat" file somewhere else, and installing the new "sprouts-classic" wallet, then inserting a copy of their saved "wallet.dat" file.

Until the above happens, I think its still safe to do all sorts of other stuff, like maintain the nodes up and running, and staking, even transferring coins from wallet to wallet is ok... Maybe even try an air drop for anyone that installs this wallet. I can give up 1 billion coins, and pass out 10 million to 100 new addresses.

So from reading your post, we will not be able to put Sprouts Classic to an exchange until the changes are made to the source code. I dont think it will be an issue and we might as well fix the MAX_MONEY issue, re-compile the executable for the new wallet.

I have yesterday tinkered with the old Sprouts wallet that you posted a link to on my Mac, installed QT Creater to load the project and found numerous issues and plenty of warnings. There are still errors that I am trying to resolve. I am just trying to successfully compile the Wallet to run it and see that it shows the GUI wallet. If that is done, I will have to increment the version. I dont know if compiling it on Windows will produce the same errors. I will keep you posted because if it is successful then I can perform the rename of the project and executable to sprouts-classic.

Good news. I managed to compile and run the old Sprouts wallet using QT Creator on a Mac. Now I can make changes if I want.

Sweet! This means that you got past the errors and warnings. Make a copy, and mess with it as much as you want.

I haven't used qt creator, but I am going to guess that it should let you cross compile a version for the Mac, linux, and windows.

I got past the errors but there are still warnings such as implicit conversions, zero as null pointers repeating over and over (1020 all together).
