Dear Sir Halford,
where will you take us to?

First off, I am glad to sit in your boat.
I love to participate in science while mining.
Hence, I promote your project in many directions and at every occasion!

The network has come quite a way since October.
Yet, today I am confused - help me please.
Yesterday you stated that your main job needs your focus.
This was when you speculated on starting anew / creating one more project, for fun.
Please say that I got you wrong on that. Be our leader, be Grid.
New ideas might breed features, but don't fork your project and your community.

Back in Winter, I had the chance to swap a few sentences with you.
I asked for your project plans. You said, the chain was already safe for investment.
So, I placed some money and followed along, waving your flag.
Later, cpu rewards were introduced silently, no community decision, no transparent information politics. Evaluations started to tumble.

Meanwhile, more than a million new GRC spill into the network each week.
You could at least have halved the block reward since then, imho.
Did you consider to discuss this openly?

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate your eagerness.
Thus, may I kindly ask you to elaborate on your plans for Gridcoin,
to set some cornerstones fix and commit to them publicly?

Could we place full trust in your endavour?
I believe, trust is what an early community needs the most.
Continue to be innovative as we have grown to love you, but dont let disruption spoil the show.

Therefore, again, please don't take my words as an offense.
But, give us a landmark, hand some vision to refer to,
please.

Let your ppl start to celebrate with you!

the requirement sounds like the metric should be accessible on a separate page, imho.

I sent some over to your side, welcome!

couldn't recover, sadly. but thank you for the explanation.
I started with new wallets on each machine and will try to recover one by one.

Maybe, resolving bloated wallets doesn't cope with every wallet in the same way..
Still looking for possible reasons.
Rob, may I ask you to comment on this, please?

How did it work out for you, airtreb? Could you recover?

Did it happen 10-20 hours ago, as with me?

Boiar, I saw that error as well!

what happened ~around~ block 51509 (16 hours ago)?
All of my 5 (five) wallets seem to be stuck there.

Some machines say, wallet file was corrupted, some just wont sync.
Backups wont sync either. I have been looking into it since I woke up.

How could I possibly recover?

as inappropriate as language can get

i got the impression, someone in here cant wait to eagerly throw grc around
*justkidding*

sounds dangerous, how to prevent so from buying a few bytes and swallowing an inferior currency via majority-attack then?

mine crashes too,
upon trying to send 1 GRC in win7 64bit the wallet terminates stating:
"MS Visual C++
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information."
Retry @ 1 mGRC failed as well.

is there already a pending request to integrate some stable version of boinc?
this might strip dependencies and make the system less vulnerable.

I am glad to confirm a successful trade with DatGuyIan transacting 10k GRC for 0.95 BTC.
No troubles, easy correspondence. Thanks for the deal, anytime again!

donated some to your address,
welcome

I could provide escrow for the time being

What Rob explained was, you experience less variance in payouts.
You are right, this does not affect the difficulty, it lowers risk.

I confirm the trade with s4mmy,
money is on its way. Great thanks!

Finally completed a trade with Lederstrumpf,
there were quite some delays at my side, but all went well in the end.
(will update the sheet)
He is a polite trader, I enjoyed the deal!

all sent and all received for my part, great thanks!

sent .45 btc to traderman for 1st half of trade

Dear traderman,
I accept your offer of 10,000 GRC for a price of 0.9 BTC
How do you want to process the trade?
