TheCoin has xjo listed but no one trading it there. Yobit is saying the wallet is under maintenance but that is the same as many other wallets there and yet they still trade those coins. I been waiting on yobit for awhile now to fix the xjo wallet and several others. For now I guess its sit on the coins and hope.

Personally I think this says it all about this site.

12. Force Majeure
12.1. Bitmain Affiliates is exempted from fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement and is entitled to cancel the Purchaser confirmed orders without any liability, in the event of force majeure such as strikes, floods and fires, wars, riots, interruptions in transport, shortage of material or energy sources affecting Bitmain Affiliates or its sub-suppliers, accidents or other occurrences which affects sub-suppliers production, bankruptcy or compulsory liquidation of a sub-supplier, accidents of any kind, governmental decisions which affects manufacturing or use of the Products and, in general, such events that were unforeseen at the time of the order which prevents or hinder manufacturing, transportation or delivery of the Products to the Purchaser.

Taken from the website itself in the terms and conditions.
This gives them any excuse they desire to cancel your order and not return your funds.

Saw this and wanted to ask if you intend to sell the usb style pcie risers in the future. Finding a reliable source for these has been dificult. I am in Washington State SW corner.

Anybody who willingly uses this site is asking to have their coins stolen. Even Zcash which is fairly hot right now is messed up there. I have lost coins here 3 times. 2 of those times were coins that were not being traded elsewhere. So I got an addy from yobit and sent coins. Never saw the coins again and all you get from a yobit support ticket is an argument with a robot.

These are thieves plain and simple. Yet people still support them or is it that they only service you after you pay a blackmail fee?

Wallet suddenly wont sync. Newest version. Was working fine until this morning.
v2.5

I am done with this. Sold all mine and got out. Wish you the best but just ain't looking good in my opinion.

Miners are generally not investors. They run a piece of equipment designed to earn them money. Selling coins pays the power bills and helps replace dead or outdated equipment. In my case I quit mining this as I saw it as a coin that deserved a bit more dev time.
There are a great many coins that are fully supportive of miners and their needs and it is sad to see that people here slam on miners as being the source of declining prices and failure of coins. Please keep in mind a pow coin fails if it isn't mined and miners have to sell to pay their bills.
That said I have read enough to make me not want anymore to do with this coin. Have experienced this before and what followed was a sorry thing to watch. Good luck and i hope things go better here than some of my past experiences did.

Well, hashrate is climbing slowly as is the diff. Seems things are getting back to normal. Ah, well, it was fun while it lasted.

What do you mean by that? Bothers you a small time miner might actually get to earn atleast a dime usd?

Ok just to be safe I went thru it one more time.

current number of blocks 16572
last block time wed mar 16 19:26:49 2016

Is what I am doing. Got it fired back up and going. 8.1mh/s is all but doing good. Just found block #16561

Well appears my wallet is on the right chain and is right version but now I am getting an error.

Warning: Displayed transactions may not be correct! You may need to upgrade, or other nodes may need to upgrade.

I stopped mining this for now and shutting my wallet down. My bet is I wasted a days hashing on it. Hope not, but has been my luck in the past. Figure when I recheck my wallet later the odds and father murphy say my 6300 coin will either be totally gone or invalid.
Sorry there are issues with this but my little operation gets hit very hard by these sort of things.

Good luck

Well something is screwy somewhere yet as they are showing a block number that is 200 higher than mine and I just re installed completely since we spoke in pm a bit ago. Are we4 sure they did a full blockchain reset or just reinstalled the software over the old and didn't re do their chain?

My new wallet shows 16529

I see that POOL.MN is howing block #16727, but my wallet says the block count is 16522. so what is correct here?

Looks like there is atleast one pool ignoring the fork. Considering teh amount oh hashing power they are producing I doubt the fork is gonna work.

https://pool.mn/trump/index.php?page=statistics&action=blocks


I sent an email to them about it but have either been ignored or no one is home.

This sucks as the exchanges will not re- open trading until everyone is on the correct fork.

One of the main mining pools is still running the old chain. Sent an email about it to them. My wallet is on updated fork and I am solo mining on it.

Yes, I do. But hey, who said anything about creating a p2pool node for staking or mining. It can also be used as a secondary network just for connections of wallets.

And someone with faith in the coin will by those too.   

A clarified set of Linux install steps:

Linux wallet install guide

Dependencies you will need can be had with this:

sudo aptitude install bitcoind python-software-properties screen git python-rrdtool python-pygame python-scipy python-twisted python-twisted-web python-imaging build-essential libglib2.0-dev libglibmm-2.4-dev libqt4-dev python-dev libssl-dev libdb5.1++-dev libboost1.55-all-dev dh-autoreconf libcurl4-openssl-dev libminiupnpc-dev ufw


git clone https://github.com/BigUps/wallet.git

when it is done
cd wallet (recomend first doing ' mv wallet Bigup ' to rename the wallet

cd src

make -f makefile.unix

strip Bigupd

cp Bigupd to whatever directory you wish to launch it from

nano /root/.Bigup/Bigup.conf

add this stuff to it(change user and password of course):
rpcuser=your_user_name
rpcpassword=littlebit of key mashing here
