🚀💥 EXCITING NEWS! 🚀💥 Shifu just dropped a major update on our website, giving you an in-depth look at our team and the vision behind WART 💡! From Janushash mining algo to built-in DeFi solving the sandwich problem, we're pulling back the curtain on what's next for Warthog 🐗🔥!

Not for now, we need to first deliver new features before and grow before we get in contact with additional exchanges. Indeed other coins with less solid foundations have much higher marketcap, we do not primarily do marketing but development of features that are totally new in the crypto space like browser nodes, lightweight defi, thread based sync model and of course our groundbreaking Proof of Balanced Work algorithm by CoinFuMasterShifu requiring both, CPU and GPU for mining such that big farms cannot easily join.

📰️ As we continue to power ahead, we're excited to announce our brand new "NEWS" tab on our website https://www.warthog.network/! 📊 It's your one-stop-shop for staying up-to-date on our latest achievements 💥 and upcoming challenges 🔥. Think of it as a progress report straight from the trenches - you'll get a bird's eye view of where we've been, where we're going, and what still needs to be conquered! 🏔️

But don't worry, we won't leave you hanging - our "NEWS" tab is designed to keep you informed every step of the way. From milestones achieved to tasks still on the horizon, you'll be the first to know what's new with Warthog Network 💸! So go ahead, bookmark it, and stay tuned for regular updates from your favorite cryptocurrency project 🐗🔥

Last year on this day #Warthog #blockchain was put into motion by miners.
It has come a long way, especially this year. OG devs have laid foundations then Shifu has came on board with his ideas.

BzMiner updated, gearing up to support upcoming change to Verushash 2.2.

🚨 BIG NEWS!🚨 Warthog's mining algorithm upgrade is getting REAL! 😎 We've implemented the necessary code mods in version 0.4.35, and iedoc is cooking up a new miner update that'll let you ride this change without restarting your miners! 💻

But before we go live on the main net, we need YOU to help us test the waters... or rather, restart the test net nodes with the latest version! 🌊 This means all test net coins will be lost (RIP), but it's a small price to pay for a smoother algorithm change. 💸 Main net is not affected for now.

So, who's ready to join the testing squad and help make sure everything runs smoothly when we switch to Verushash v2.2? 🤔 Let's do this! 👊

🚨 Important Update Ahead! 🚨
The Warthog team is excited to announce an upcoming upgrade to our mining algorithm, Janushash! We're trading in Verushash v2.1 for the more secure and robust Verushash v2.2. This means improved security for the Warthog blockchain and a stronger foundation for our cryptocurrency's future growth.

Here's how it'll go down:

 First, bzminer (the trusty miner from iedoc) will get an update to support Verushash v2.2
 Then, we'll test-net the new algorithm to ensure mining runs smoothly
 Next, our pool partners will be notified and work their magic
 Finally, we'll determine a block height for the main net switch

Stay tuned for more updates as we prepare for this exciting change!

Block explorer was released today: https://wart.0xf10.com

Hi I just wanted to give an update on the state of the project.
* New algorithm ahead, it has been much more difficult than expected but shifu is doing well and making progress with his new algorithm miner implementation which is based on both, a GPU and a CPU part. This is the top priority for now and we hope to ship it next week. The design of the new algorithm is unique and the first of its kind.
* We have recently polished the output of the node software, now there are separate log files. This ensures the command line output is neat and clean.
* We are communicating with Exbitron for our first listing. Listing shall happen after the switch to the new algorithm.
* We now have a GUI wallet thanks to andrew and he is also working on a better explorer.
* Soon we will set up public nodes such that the GUI wallet can be used without running a node.

Some roadmap of things ahead:

* After listing the next goal is to support windows.
* Mining pool shall be set up next.
* Shifu has ideas to extend the basic functionality by a DeFI layer (shifu, please correct me if I am saying something wrong).

Warthog had a fair start, we did not reserve any of the supply for a dev fund. Everything is 100% mineable. We think that this is very important for a community cryptocurrency. But on the other hand we therefore need to collect some donations. The donation address for WART is

b897f693e81687b8d20947ecadfb83e4e850ac022134132e

A USDT donation address will be set up soon also for those who prefer to donation USDT.

Thank you all for your support!

The old link had expired here is a new one: https://discord.gg/QMDV8bGTdQ

The algo is custom and at some point we will change it to support GPU. You can specify the node IP and port only for the miner at the moment, not yet for wallet. We can patch it this week. I have created a discord group https://discord.gg/Y3XMQe42.

This is to be done. The basic functionality for a potential blockchain explorer is provided by the JSON RPC located at "localhost:3000". Opening this on your browser gives you a list of endpoints that provide all sort of information like balance, history, block details, etc.
Block chain explorer is planned for llater, now we are focusing on bug detection and fixes. And on creation of discord.

Yes you are right. The exact total supply is 18921599.68464 (~19m) and will be reached after 58 years of mining (29 halvings).

We will try to do it this weekend.

Then it must be a bug. It is on our todo list.

Yes.

Total amount: 1892160000000000. But I will ask Pumbaa and Timon on this, maybe I am wrong.

I generated a test address for you.

The wart-node program must run while you are mining. You terminated it or it crashed. If it crashed please give info why it crashed.

You can do so with the wallet: wart-wallet -b shows the balance. Please back up your wallet file.

Yes, with newest code from GitHub.

We have updated the GitHub repo. You can now run the program without LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Please try again now.

The problem is not that you have a too old sekp236k1 library installed but that you have installed this library and it has the same name as some library that we ship with warthog and the system library has higher precedence. We will rename the shipped library in our repo such that it does not have the same name anymore.
For how you can remove the os package that installed this library. Our you prepend to every warthog command this: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/meirong/youzhu/new/build/src/wallet/./../../thirdparty/secp256k1


It works now. Congratulations. You need to create a wallet file by appending the "-c" flag.
