Anyone know what this message means and how to fix it?


Warning: Unknown block versions being mined! It's possible unknown rules are in effect

This is coming up in Raven Core version v2.2.1.0-7914d9c (64-bit) for Windows

I sometimes mine on this computer with NVIDIA cards when I'm away from the machine at night. Right now miner is not running and this message is popping up.


Thanks for any input.

Anyone here having issues with block chain explorers not reporting correct amount on blockchain?

I have a wallet that has 25K and the wallet shows correct amount when open.

However, two of the block explorer site show two different amounts.

https://ravencoin.network/
Shows 10K

https://explorer.ravencoin.world/
Shows 45K

Is something going on I don't know about?  Maybe these raven explorers not functioning correctly. The balances for this wallet in above example are not exact amounts but close approximations of my wallet rounded for ease of discussion.

I just checked mine with https://explorer.ravencoin.world/  and it shows my correct balance.  Smiley

Well my wallet still shows the right amount but both block explorers are now showing the same amount but its still not correct.  I'm running the latest wallet so I'm up to date on that. 

A glitch in the blockchain? Not sure never have seen this in my five years in this space.

Pool is down since Late Friday or early Saturday. Looks like this is a reoccurring issue and might have to find another pool that I can ASIC
mine with. Oh well, let's see how long it takes them to get it back up this time....lol

Cheers!


Having the same issues.  Any ideas when this might be fixed?

Long time since I posted here.  Glad to see the fork went well.  Pointed all my GPU miners at Monero tonight to help out the network.  Hope everyone is good and it looks like the great community I remember is alive and well.  Glad Moreno is sticking to true decentralization.  Monero brought me into the crypto space.  Monero the only privacy coin I would ever use.

I have been following this and other Raven threads for some time now.  Seems to me that Ravenpool and 3i has some shady shit going on.   One is stealing coins the other from time to time has pushed the hashrate over 51% on their pool and who knows if they have cheated anyone.   I have no proof and I don't care.  I have been in this long enough now to know fraud and lies when I see it. The patterns rinse and repeat.


I can say I have been at minepool.com for some time now and it has been a good experience.  I even won one of the March Madness coin give away.   Over 500 coins won during the campaign.  The operator has made improvements and the coin payouts are like clockwork.  Over 6K coins mined there so far and no problems.

Re: [ANN] [XMV] MoneroV - Fork 1:10 of Monero - Finite coin supply - Private
by

So after reading this entire thread and all published info on MoneroV I have come to my own conclusions.  These opinions have no basis or fact to back them up but more of a gut feeling.

I think that it is possible that Bitmain is behind or involved with this fork as they want to keep using the ASIC's they developed.  The timing of the announcements of fork coincide with the news of the Monero ASIC miners.   Nothing in the MoneroV release info states ASIC resistant or any attempt to address that question.  If I'm wrong, I'm open to being proven wrong.  I am not here to FUD, just real questions on the ASIC topic need to be answered.  Keeping core dev team a secret is a big negative in my book.   Would you buy stock in a company if you did not know any information about who ran it from the top? I noticed only one person in the MoneroV ANN asked anything about ASIC mining and that questions is still not answered.

MoneroV = centralized ASIC mining consortium.  

Like I said I have no fact to back this up just gut feelings.  My gut feelings are usually right but I could be wrong.  I have been involved with Monero since almost the beginning and I can attest the Monero community is strong and has lots of good people.  I hope for the sake of people getting involved in MoneroV it is not an ASIC continuation or a scam.  Time will tell and I hope this project really is on the up and up because I believe there are some good points for MoneroV and some issues addressed that are not addressed in Monero.

Please prove me wrong with facts if you have them regarding ASIC resistance.  For now I have not seen any fact that lead me to believe this coin is ASIC resistant.



You've mixed your forks up (easy mistake, we have a few of those now Roll Eyes). MoneroV is forking after the v7 hardfork, so they'll have the updated v7 PoW. There's a lot of reasons to hate MoneroV but this isn't one of them - Monero Classic and Monero0 are where you should direct your ASIC related hate.

Ok if this is the case then cool.  Like I said this fork offers some new potentials to Monero.  Anyway in this day and age of cryptos scammers one can never be to paranoid or careful.  I remember a guy loosing 7000 XMR to a fake My Monero site some time back.

7 folks in the NCAA bracket challenge so 14 XMR to me.  Wallet address is:

433XT8hcut3gQR6kw5pPpSXivmw1m3PqA2nLHGLBX5RzbSynrRUZizPN5EW2kDDZAafZrQTsYZutxTF GQAryiiCgFgQhi71

Maybe next year XMR will be $50 and we all put in .5 or 1 XMR.  Its been a few years since I won a bracket.  We only had 7 in the group this year, had there been more I probably would not be collecting these funds as my predictions were all busted up from first round forward.

 Send me the link to ESPN loggin.   I mine about 2-3 XMR every other day or so.  I've done well on my Brackets in the past.  Big Kentucky Wildcats fan here.  I could use to win a bet.  Let the smack talk begin LOL.

Holy Mother of All Profit!    Shocked

Looking at the price this morning I'm dumbfounded. Was a great late night up swing.  Coffee is just hitting my brain and still processing the new price.  Glad I'm holding.  The only coins I have let go of are for Bounties and Development, and I bought a few of those Silver Monero Physical coins from Cryptonic just as a souvenir.  

Thanks to everyone for making the Monero community great.  Feeling grateful.

I wish I had a large chunk of change right now.   The old days of low prices are over.  Even at 0.0138 I want to buy many many Monero.  This ride up is just getting going.  The next year in development and acceptance is key.    

How well did the protestors keep people off Tor today?  Anyone know?  I wonder if that had anything to do with the slow downward stabilization in price today.

1 week chart for 30 min candles. Looks like we will see a break up or break down. Seems like the tension around Monero is intensifying on weekends.


I've noticed that pattern too as of late.  Would love to see a 25% or more gain over this weekend  Grin

What about the problem of some people about the "view key" feature. They said that a court order could make you show your transactions in the clear thru view key. Is this true? Why is that feature even there? It might become Monero's weakness.

If you have information, you can be compelled to reveal it by only and exactly that force which is able to compel such performance.  I fail to see in what sense the view key mechanism is a problem in such a scenario. The problem, in any such a case, is not the view key, but the fact that you retained the information.  If you wish to preclude being forced to reveal information, you must destroy it.




I guess courts can not demand only your view key but also can check inside wallet if they want to. View keys can provide to see without actually open the wallet.

Seems to me you could apply the 5th Amendment here in the U.S. for a view key request.  But to be sure you should consult with your attorney.

I like to run a tor exit node on the same LAN, and connect to a VPN from that IP, without going through tor, then connect to tor through a VPN in an other country, which I paid for with Monero via XMR.to, and has a canary.

It is also easy to find Netgear routers with exploits and bounce off of a couple of those.  It's actually hard to see a downside to that. You can patch the vulnerability for them when you are done, to pay for it, if you like.  The main risk is that one might be a honeypot.


Well with all that being said, I need to watch the latest episode of Mr. Robot.
