Re: [ANN] Blockle (BLK) – SHA-256, 15-Second Blocks, 1 000 000 000 Supply, 20 000 00

Hello Blockle team (OP) and community,

Thanks for the announcement, the project looks interesting. I've been testing Blockle shortly after launch using the pre-compiled Windows wallet (version v1.3.0.0-g7ff64311...) available from the Blocklechain/Windows-Wallet GitHub repository, running on Windows 10 x64.

I wanted to share my initial experience, especially regarding attempts at CPU mining, in case it's helpful as feedback or for other users:

1. Sync and Network Status:
The wallet synced quickly to block 2, which matches the official explorer found at https://explorer.blockle.org/ . However, both my node and the explorer seem to indicate that the last block (block #2) was mined quite some time ago (over 17 hours at the time of my testing). My node successfully connects to peers (I had 2 active connections), and the debug.log file shows messages like 'Potential stale tip detected', indicating it's aware of the lack of new blocks.

2. CPU Mining Attempt (Console):
I attempted to mine using the CPU via the Debug Console within the blockle-qt.exe wallet:

Generating a receiving address worked correctly after restarting the wallet.
I encrypted the wallet for security.
Executing

Code:

generatetoaddress 1 "my_blk1_address..."

while the wallet was locked returned

Code:

[ ]

immediately.

I unlocked the wallet using
Code:
```
walletpassphrase
```
(it returned
Code:
```
null
```
, indicating success).
Executing
Code:
```
generatetoaddress 1 "my_blk1_address..."
```
again with the wallet unlocked also returned
Code:
```
[ ]
```
immediately.
Interestingly, checking the debug.log shows a
Code:
```
CreateNewBlock()
```
entry matching the exact time of this second attempt[/b], suggesting the node does prepare the block template, but the RPC command fails or terminates before initiating the mining process.
I tried the alternative command
Code:
```
setgenerate true 1
```
, but it returned the error
Code:
```
Method not found (code -32601)
```
Conclusion:
Based on these tests, it appears that CPU mining using the built-in console commands (
Code:
```
generatetoaddress
```
,
Code:
```
setgenerate
```
) is not functioning correctly in the Windows v1.3.0 build.
Code:
```
generatetoaddress
```
seems buggy (fails returning
Code:
```
[ ]
```
even though the log shows
Code:
```
CreateNewBlock
```
is executed), and
Code:
```
setgenerate
```
no longer exists.

Additionally, the observation that the main network seems stalled at block 2 for many hours is also worth noting.

I hope this detailed information is helpful to the team and community. Is this a known issue with the Windows build or the
Code:
```
generatetoaddress
```
command?

Regards and best of luck with the Blockle project.
