How did you get mac wallet to work?
also
how long does it take before you start earning money from stake?
thanks
It seems it broke again, trying to sync again =( Just saw someone posted a link to a new mac wallet, is it safe to use ?
the new mac wallet is safe. however it still gets stuck a few times, you will need to close and re-open it to allow it to catchup.
not sure why it's sticking, i had thought the checkpoints should have eradicated this issue.
anyway, wallet works fine.
Actually, it will recover after stuck, if you wait for the next new block. But you get faster on sync by restarting.
Seems like on initial blockchain download, it just don't trigger the next download after receiving the 500 blocks which is the limit.
So far, this is my best guess for the root cause:
https://github.com/MsCollec/sync/blob/master/src/main.cpp#L3129
It won't request next batch based on PoS. It will do it only on PoW.
It is easy to make request on PoS also. But have to understand this first:
Code:
// ppcoin: send latest proof-of-work block to allow the
// download node to accept as orphan (proof-of-stake
// block might be rejected by stake connection check)
// download node to accept as orphan (proof-of-stake
// block might be rejected by stake connection check)
If you are a programmer, give it a look..
that makes sense. thanks. Although i'm nowhere near having any kind of ability to program, your clear and concise explanations make it easy to understand.
