I made 2 transactions to c-cex at 6:07 and 6:13 EEST today. They were confirmed but never showed up on the site. I ask here instead of c-cex support because there was an update shortly after the transactions, and another transaction I made after the update worked fine. What's the problem?

Also, the update increased level generation time significantly (about 2 seconds here).
I suggest you to ask c-cex support, updte shouldn't affect transactions in any way.

mega.co.nz keeps giving me a "temporary error" when trying to download the new Win client? is it just me or did anyone else have this issue?

Getting also a "temporary error".
Do you still have this issue? I can download it just fine.

here the same
Try this one: https://mega.co.nz/#!3E4DiDwT!2901UxBxl5ejhZcaPvYXWIn10bzXaIfIKFNoF2SjP2Y
This was some mega's problem.

thanks but nothing, it's always the same

If you use Internet Explorer it might work (Unless your already using it). For some reason Mega doesn't work on my chrome.

I use firefox

the new link works fine for me (on Chrome btw)

kind of worrying to see the difficulty drop below 1million... exchange rate also on a downwards slope...

we need to do some publicity... a blockexplorer, a reddit embassador, etc... what are the plans for community buidling?

something doesnt add up...
120 seconds blocktime
first 1000 blocks: 1 CX
until block 10000 reward: 500 CX

so far "blocks" : 1264,
"moneysupply" : 633498.00000000,

please explain

Interesting, I love it when shitcoin meet their end sooner. This is one of them. I'll check the source to see if there's anything fishing with the generation of blocks. Can some of you with the client do:

Getblockhash 1

Getblock

To check if there's a premine on first block or so.
We need a block explorer before this gets near an exchange.

First block was the 500k (1%) Premine.
Since this is a self-moderated thread, I won't bother with this.

Quote
// miner's coin base reward based on nBits
int64 GetProofOfWorkReward(int nHeight, int64 nFees, uint256 prevHash)
{

int64 nSubsidy = 500 * COIN;

if(nHeight==1){
 nSubsidy = 500000 * COIN;
}

if(nHeight<1000 && nHeight>1){
 nSubsidy = 1 * COIN;
}

if(nHeight<10000 && nHeight>999){
 nSubsidy = 500 * COIN;
}

if(nHeight<20000 && nHeight > 9999){
 nSubsidy = 250 * COIN;
}

if(nHeight<40000 && nHeight > 19999){
 nSubsidy = 100 * COIN;
}

if(nHeight<60000 && nHeight > 39999){
 nSubsidy = 50 * COIN;
}

if(nHeight<100000 && nHeight > 59999){
 nSubsidy = 10 * COIN;
}

if(nHeight>99999){
 nSubsidy = 1 * COIN;
}

    return nSubsidy + nFees;
}

Huge premine of 500k coins on first block.

well... that's the 1% premine as announced... so i am not particularly worried but I do agree that we need a blockexplorer asap

I have done some calculations out of interest. Please correct me if I made a mistake somewhere in my reasoning:

@ 2min per block

Phase      Blocks   Reward                  Coins     Minutes     Hours     Days  
1             1,000            1                  1,000              0            0          0 (negligible as completed in first few minutes)
2             9,000        500           4,500,000     18,000        300   12,50
3           10,000        250           2,500,000     20,000        333   13,38
4           20,000        100           2,000,000     20,000        667   27,78
5           20,000          50           1,000,000     40,000        667   27,78
6           40,000          10              400,000     80,000     1,333   55,56

               Total POW                 10,401,000   198,000     3,300 137,50   = 4,58 months (pretty long time to have ASICs off BTC if it will really take this long)

From 10,401,000 to 50,000,000 are POS coins.

POW will therefore take 4.58 months since POS and POW are not simultaneous POS will start in 4.58 months, or at which point does POS start?

open the debug window and in the command line type walletpassphrase yourwalletpassword 99999999 true
and how does one set up POS minting ? ... i'd like to get my first 50 xtras up for POS! willing to pay 5CX for someone explaining me how to get POS started
and what do i need to put in for walletpassphrase, or do i literally type "walletpassphrase" ?!


hi fraenk,
just type "walletpassphrase

hi goldman,
so does this mean as soon as my wallet no longer says it is locked, it will take part in POS automatically? Why does the wallet show "Stake: 0.00CX", do my coins need to age first and are then automatically added to the stake??
Sorry, but this is my first POS coin I am checking out and I'm new to this. Thanks for your help!

has anyone looked at the source, yet?

the git states quite different stats than posted in the OP here?

do I smell fish?

what do you mean ?

i mean: is this legit? because the readme on GIT does not match the description over here at all... so i was wondering if anybody has bothered to look at the code and has investigated how the coin actually works...

Unpleasant Notification:

some might have noticed that we are experiencing some issues at the moment..

Several raffles have not been drawn in the past days. It appears this was due to bot-scripts trying to exploit our site. We are working on a safeguard for the attacks and will manually solve the missing raffles asap.

Meanwhile all payments are on hold and the previous raffles are under review.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but rest assured, the next payout is going to come in the next few days... and it will be a BIG one .

Best,
Frank @ Lift

not looking good there

then again:

No, this site has not hosted malicious software over the past 90 days.

How did this happen?
In some cases, third parties can add malicious code to legitimate sites, which would cause us to show the warning message.
