will do some house keeping on this thread, I will create another thread for dashcoin minergate (DMG)...
What is the difference plz?  thx Smiley

dashcoin minergate [DMG] has double spend issues in the past, wasn't patched at the right time...minergate decided to become a fork and continued mining on their chain.

BTW i believe if you have an old wallet with coins with it, you will have both coins.
I have 2.0 I believe and need to switch to 2.1 wallet... so my coins are after the fork. Thx for the explanation.

you're welcome...i haven't tried it myself yet...my dashcoins are still from the ancient times now they will become x2, will have to acquire 1tb ssd drive for my laptop first...blockchains are filling it to the brim LOL.

removed the DSH "reference spam" on the top of the OP as noted by mod...

i guess the reference on the second post will suffice to explain the history of this fork and from what coin it came from....though I think there is a need to put the "information about the fork" reference where it is, to make it clear that this is a fork by getting attention being on top.

information about the fork: see second post for links and details





DISCLAIMER I am not affiliated with Minergate, this thread is created to prevent confusion in using Dashcoin [DSH] and Dashcoin Minergate [DMG]





Dashcoin Minergate[DMG]
_________________________________________________
Based on CryptoNote technology | https://cryptonote.org/
_________________________________________________


Dashcoin[DMG] is a fork of the original Dashcoin and uses the unique algorithm CryptoNote.


Specifications

  • Algorithm: CryptoNote
  • Block time: 120 seconds (2 minutes)
  • Difficulty retargets each block
  • Block reward decreases each block according to the formula:
    BaseReward = (MSupply - A)/218,  where MSupply = (264 - 1) atomic units and 'A' is amount of already generated coins
  • One coin is divisible down to 8 decimal places (divisible up to 108)
  • Total coins: 18 446 744 atomic units (= 18.446 Million DSH)

Mirror image is better than self sustained fork
The reason is simple - costs. Self sustained forks demand a lot of development time, if you want to build a well maintained cryptocurrency.
If the network grows, the required development time is likely to grow too.
A simpler, and less costly way to maintain a network with high reliability is to create a self mutating copy of it.
Mutating copy is a simple copy of the original source, mutating every time the original source mutates.

Pay attention ... to the Minergate HiBTC blockchain and devs Democats Cryptopia blockchain ... I've lost about 1000 DSH from Cryptopia to HiBTC (no warning in exchange)

So we need to differentiate one branch of fork from another.
Now it is a different coins.
They must have different names and tickers.

slb and co. should talk to minergate/hitbtc...in who would keep Dashcoin/DASH/DSH..

if slb and co. will choose to get a new name for the democats/cryptopia chain, i would suggest that they create a new ANN page for the newly named coin/fork.

if minergate/hitbtc chain choose to get a new name, i would also suggest that they make a new ANN page for the newly named coin/fork.

for me, i would suggest that the chain without double spend should keep the original name.

First rename wallet.bin to wallet.old.bin, and then open the wallet "wallet.bin".  The wallet will say it cannot find "wallet.bin" (as it was renamed), and it will begin to resync the wallet.  When that is done, try to send the transaction again.

If the above does not work, then rename wallet.bin to wallet.old.bin, and then go to %appdata%/dashcoin, and delete blockscache.dat, p2pstate.bin, poolstate.bin.  Open the daemon, and wait for the blockchain to resync.  Then, open simplewallet, and open "wallet.bin".  It will say wallet.bin cannot be found (as it was renamed), and it will begin to resync the wallet.

Once you are done, and the wallet is working again, you can safely delete wallet.old.bin.

I'm running a newer version of Dashcoin Wallet (f21c4c6). I have an invalid transaction and I'm trying to resubmit it, but the files I have in my AppData directory are different than what is listed above. I have:

In order for my wallet to show I have the funds again to re-submit the transaction correctly (last time I submitted too low of a fee), what should I do with these files and the application? Thank you.

i believe you are trying to reset the wallet...just type "reset" and press enter, the wallet will resync...the newer wallet has this command, you can see other commands if you type "help"..

First, I'm on Windows and my wallet was installed through a GUI installer and runs as a GUI (I don't see any command-line ways to interact with the wallet). Second, when I try to run dashcoin.exe from the command-line in Windows with the "--help" option (total command is "dashcoin --help"), I get a GUI based dialog that pops up displaying this message:

So, I don't see any "reset" or resync options. Any further thoughts?

i see, you used the GUI wallet...for me I don't use that wallet and personally i would not recommend using it, besides the latest updates and patches are on the CLI (command line interface) version, worked for me for a very long time..let me play with that GUI wallet first, I'll find a workaround for you.

hello everybody, i'm arielbit i'm not a very technical person like the coders/programmers here so i would like to put this PM in public for everyone to see and understand stuff..i believe the update slb posted up thread, the latest wallet version is patched.

i'm just managing this thread since kushedout is busy on his stuff....just trying to help

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA256

In Monero we've discovered and patched a critical bug that affects all CryptoNote-based cryptocurrencies. We patched it quite some time ago, but until the hard fork that we had a few weeks ago we were unsure as to whether or not the entire network had updated. Because we are now certain they have, we are able to reveal the details to you so that you can patch your coin.

Note that the hash of these details was precommitted to the Monero blockchain in tx dff7a79e44f9392e19fe5205c389d3e799f89c62d90d624219618d754b806e04, and we will be revealing the details publicly by the middle of May. Please make sure you have patched your coin by then.


Problem:
The so-called "key image" as used in Cryptonote coins utilizing elliptic curve ed25519 can be modified in a special way, allowing double-spends. I leave out exact details in this draft to give some time for mitigation.

Hash (keccak-256) of details, to be released later: <4402e902f1ac8cec96a17453dcae307d21a7995a94b76e9c3eb7ca7baeffb8c8>


Mitigation:
Several options exist for mitigation; I include the simplest, least invasive here.

To mitigate, check key images for correctness by multiplying by the curve order l. Check that the result is the identity element.

I include hexadecimal values of each:
Identity element = "0100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000"
Curve order (little endian) = "edd3f55c1a631258d69cf7a2def9de1400000000000000000000000000000010"

For each transaction key image, check ((key image * curve order) == (identity element)); reject transaction if false.

How to add it, even if you submit coin to be added to YoBit, you need to add a link to your ANN thread, which not exist at all, so what do you expect, how will they react on empty ANN ? yes , they will SKIP IT. And because of this, developer team, which are mining this coin from the start by themselfs, will end up with premine of 50%, but worthless coins. If that was the goal, then you have a success.

Well there is a sucker born every day, I am sure someone will buy some of those worthless coins and bitch about it a week later how they got scammed. Its a never ending cycle.
