Well, thousands of people are stranded since their funds are frozen. Some are stuck with Hotel/AirBNB payments, while most can't pay their bills. I can only imagine how hard it is for them, cause of COVID-19 lockdown.

We have a new release and its mandatory to update as soon as possible.

There was a bug in the blockchain code and it was triggered at block 710000, causing the blockchain to stop working and get stuck.

I have been working on this for the past 72 hours and I got it working again but everyone needs to update their wallets and masternode/maxnode.

Everyone is required to download the new release (V2.1.1) which can be found at GitHub.

https://github.com/LytixChain/lytix/releases/tag/v2.1.1

* Download the new Windows wallet and update.

* Wait for full sync and then Start your masternode/maxnode.

* If sync is stuck, use bootstrap or delete the blockchain and let it reindex from start.

Make sure your masternodes/maxnodes are using the latest binaries and synced according to explorer block.

Our explorer is fully synced and has the correct block:

http://explorer.lytixchain.org/

Off topic: Thanks tippytoes for the kind words

Sorry for not being active on this forum, but you can find me on our discord server.

Currently busy with Corona tests "I'm a medical lab tech", and development will continue once this state of emergency is over.

Network is working fine, as well as the explorer, seed nodes and website. Feel free to pm me if you need help with any issues regarding LYTX.

Happy New Year Everyone 

I  sent you a PM last week with nodes that you can use.

I have uploaded a new bootstrap.dat, lytix_dir.zip & lytix_dir.tar.gz, all updated till block 525000 and you can download the one you like here:
https://github.com/LytixChain/lytix/releases/tag/v2.1.0

Feel free to use these nodes if you want.


PM me if you still need help with your wallet.

Hello everyone,

We have launched a new release (v2.1.0) and its mandatory to update as soon as possible.

Masternode collateral will become 10000 when we reach block 510000, and the new reward will take effect when we reach block 515000. It will become 60% maxnode, 20 masternodes and 20% staking.

This release has a new protocol (71033) and it will be enforced before we reach block 515000. That's why its mandatory to update all your maxnodes and masternodes, not just your desktop wallet.

Windows Update:

* BACKUP your wallet!

* Download Windows wallet and install it.


Maxnode/Masternode Update:

* SSH into your VPS and stop lytixd: lytix-cli stop

* Download the new binaries to your VPS: wget https://github.com/LytixChain/lytix/releases/download/v2.1.0/lytix-2.1.0-Linux-x86_64.tar.gz

* untar and replace the old binaries with the new one's:

  tar zxvf lytix-2.1.0-Linux-x86_64.tar.gz

  cd lytix-2.1.0

  sudo cp -r * /usr/local

* Make sure the new binaries replaced the old one's, then start Lytix: lytixd


If your masternode/maxnode is hosted with HostPuma, just update your Windows wallet then DM me and I will update your node for you.

If your masternode/maxnode is hosted with another hosting company, update your Windows wallet then contact them and ask them to update your node for you.

Feel free to DM me if you need help updating or have any questions. I will be online all day on Discord and ready to assist everyone.

Notes:
* Crex24 emailed and they should update their Windows wallet soon.
* MacOS not released yet but it will be soon. DM me if you are a Mac user.
* Download the wallet ONLY from our official GitHub page.
* Download Here: https://github.com/LytixChain/lytix/releases/tag/v2.1.0

News:
https://crypto-bridge.org/ is closing so if you have any coins there, then you need to withdraw it.

The current one loading time is bad and its HTML code isn't optimized. The new website will be faster and it will include the roadmap, guides...etc

The new goals will depend on what our community will decide, and I have new investors who will join the project next month so this should help with our market value.

Yes, being active has helped restore faith in the project and I'm working on a new release as we speak.

I expect the price to increase cause the dumping is over, those who wanted out are out. The current reward is also an issue cause its not balanced, that's why I'm doing the new release.


True, I will have time to rethink it all once I finish the new release and the new website as well. It will be open to discussion with our community, investors, team....etc

Hello everyone,

New Explorer:
A new explorer has been forked from iquidus/DSTRA and its live now. You can view it here: http://explorer.lytixchain.org/
Its much more reliable and bug free, but check it out and DM me on Discord if you find any issues with it. Later I will add a new section that will include ROI calculations, collateral, locked coins...etc

Upcoming Release:
I will do my best to make the release this month, masternode collateral will become 10,000 and rewards will be: 60% Maxnode - 20% Masternode - 20% Staking. It will also include code cleanup, new checkpoints, new sporks...etc

Meme Contest:
The contest is over and our winners are: @coolxraygun, @Turbostud653 (US), @StrikerBurns and @LouiS

Each will receive 5000 LYTX reward.

Don't worry, I have been in the hosting business for almost 10 years, uptime is 100% unless I need to shutdown the server for maintenance or upgrades which is rare. Kernel updates are done without the need to shutdown or reboot.

Yes, I'm still looking for a proper WHMCS payment module but haven't found any so far. I even talked to cryptocurrencycheckout on how their module work and it seems to be semi manual as well. So we will stick to the manual payment method for now, you will see our LYTX address on your invoice, send payment to it, then open a ticket to alert us.

Anyway, I will keep looking for a proper payment module and make the order process much more user-friendly.

LYTX Coin is now accepted at https://www.hostpuma.com as payment for all web hosting services.

HostPuma has been in the web hosting business for many years, and you can find a wide range of services such as shared website hosting, VPS hosting, dedicated servers and newly added masternode hosting.

We have also added more value to LYTX Coin, by making the current conversion rate $1 = 1000 LYTIX Coins. So if your invoice is $5, you will need to pay 5000 LYTX Coins.

Now you can support the project by simply switching from your current web hosting company to HostPuma and pay with your LYTX Coins.

I know its not assuring but we decided to keep it there for now. When I took over, it was 2 sat so we got it up to 10 sat and stopped.

The plan is to get real investors to buy the coin, not a fake bump that would last for few days or even few hours. Natural & slow increase in price is what we are going after.

We just started advertising on Google, and we semi integrated Lytix coin with my hosting business: https://www.hostpuma.com/masternode-hosting.html

Yes, we still need to update the roadmap on the site, and other things as well. I'm hoping to get this done in November.

He does have a good point regarding "Listing Approval". I have removed it from the main topic, and we will discuss on Discord if we should have it based on voting, or not have it at all.

I'm sorry you don't like the current idea, I'm also not a fan of "Listing Approval" and already discussing its removal with other team members. This would make the entire advertising platform decentralized.

Maxnodes were originally built as Data driven API storage, its now enabled as a second tier and I plan to use it as part of the Marketplace Blockchain.

Advertisers who run a maxnode will get 50% off the listing fee, making it very cheap to post advertisements in the blockchain. Masternodes will also get a discount. Anyway, I did not announce this in the topic or even discord cause I still need to work the development part of it.



I will need to submit another request because of the project changing hands and direction.


Yes, a lot of work will go into the website design, content and loading time as well. I don't have an ETA when I will start this but it will be done for sure, its on the top of the worksheet. Adding the wallet to Google Play is not a priority now but if we get more people interested in it, then we will consider it.

The listing fee will be around $10, paid in LYTX only from your wallet when you create an Ad. This fee is not final and it will depend on how much interest the project will get from advertisers and the crypo currency community in general. Keeping in mind that LYTX maxnode/masternode owners will get a huge discount which will reduce the fee even more.

Most coins drop in value after a while, so you might want to check the current price of each coin at DEX.

Its hard to do predictions now a day with so many coins out there, but the general rule is that you can "semi" trust coins that have active developers, and a  clear vision on how they plan to get consumers to use their coin.

Strong doesn't mean best or stable

100 USD 20 years ago is not the same as 100 USD today, it well known that the Dollar is losing value, as well as many Fiat currencies out there.

This is what happens when you print too much "paper", and can't back it up with enough resources and Gold, it starts to lose value.

If Bitcoin is your only income and you have no job, then it can be stressful one time and happy at other times.
