Android wallet update:

Hello everybody; I'm working on a Java MintCoin library and an Android wallet.

For best security and long term development, I forked from latest bitcoinj last week. Converted it to Scrypt. Made it able to communicate with my local Mintcoin wallet over network. I just updated it to understand and accept PoS/PoW hybrid blocks, and I can announce you that it can sync with the blockchain from genesis block up to #239870, which is generated just minutes ago Smiley

There are some missing features yet:

- It can validate PoW block difficulties (calculation is a little different in PoW/PoS hybrids than pure PoW coins, PoS blocks affect calculations, and modifying bitcoinj library for this task really had some challenges) ; but it doesn't try to validate PoS block difficulties yet (this is a security issue and will be fixed before releasing)

- It doesn't verify POW block rewards (due to the fact that I couldn't find a specific pseudorandom generator implementation that decides on randomized POW block rewards). I don't think this would be an issue as the main use case would be a Simple Payment Verification wallet, checkpoints will cover our security up to removal of PoW from MintCoin (though it will be nice to have the checks in place)

- Minting: It's now almost clear that minting would be possible even in SPV wallet mode. I will annonuce details later. I have to figure out validating PoS blocks first.

- UI: I'm just trying to get the pure library working properly now. Once the library is working, it'll be very easy to fork/make an Android App that uses it

- Bloom filters: Here is a request for the community: Current Mintcoin wallet doesn't support Bloom filters. Bloom filters allow SPV clients download only the transactions they're interested in (instead of all transactions in blocks), reducing mobile users' data usage dramatically. Please put a bounty on it so that someone can merge it from bitcoin client. Android wallet will work without Bloom Filter support in the main client, but its data usage would be much more.




Great Work Really

Re: [ANN][MINT]Mintcoin, Energy Saving Coin*43 Merchants*WALLET 1.7 MANDATORY!

Does anyone see this coin making it above 20 sat. Considering reinvesting possibly.

Thank-you. This is a good question. I see it going considerably higher than 200 satoshis. Even at 200 satoshis, I believe there is still room for additional growth. There is so much value here, it's insane how so many people are putting their money into the stock market or real estate and not into Mintcoin.

well real estate is pretty low right now. I invest in mint because I cannot afford real estate lol. But for a low price I can still grab 500k mint

Version 1.7 synced for a few days but today, it won't sync.  Already tried restarting.  Anyone else having the same issues?


-tb-

you may have to delete everything but the wallet.dat file and reload the entire blockchain if you updated past block 220000

I do not know if i was past that block but my wallet is syncing fine do you think I have to redownload?

Anyone else experiencing a wallet sync. issue with v1.7 past block 220000 ?

Yep, me too. It is not that it stopped sync, but it goes very-very-very slow.

dont know if anyone replied to this I had same issue just restarted wallet works fine.

just wrote this as a PM, maybe this is a better summary;

Currently I'm just investigating which library would be the best to start development. Scrypt-enabled libraries allow fast start, but they won't guarantee security updates. If such a huge effort will be put into this, I want to be sure that it will be secure and closely following bitcoinj updates even 1-2 years later.

I haven't yet committed to the issue, just intentions and checking feasibility. If I do start the project, I would probably create a fork on github, and have all my changes committed there, and will announce it after it reaches some point (such as ability to sync with first 20 days of mintcoin)

I agree with what your saying since mint is a scrypt based coin we should fork the wallet off another scrypt based coin. That will maintain mainstream updates After reading what you say does make alot of sense to me let me know what repo your thinking of going off. If you need my help in anyway. lemme know i sent you a pm with my email in it.

I'm planning on starting a github fork of bitcoinj or digibytej in the weekend for a base of the android wallet. I think I digged deep enough in the mintcoin C++ codebase to make this conversion. Once the library is done, rest is just UI, and can be forked from any coin wallet.

I'll start the project on github, and will provide write access to the repo for interested parties. I want all the changes of mint from bitcoinj or digibytej to be recorded in github, so it will be easy to merge upstream changes later. (As far as I can see, digibytej started as a brand new project, and uploaded bitcoinj + their changes in a single commit, which makes it hard to keep track of what they changed)

I haven't tested any coin's android wallets myself, if there are differences in look & feel of them, I'll be happy to know.


Still, if anyone already started this, please don't stop development Smiley This message is just FYI, not a commitment yet.

why not fork off hash engineering digitalcoinj he implements alot of stuff into once class for easier porting of coins

I did quite a bit of reading on Hash Engineering last night, and it seems like they are currently involved with 3 to 5 other wallets and are not taking on anything new for the time being.

If they are interested, they are more than welcome to participate the same as the others that have said they will be working on it.

Yah he is to busy I was just saying he is interested in pos coins for android and his git repo seems like it is easy to fork for other coins why start straight from the bitcoinj because then we also have to figure our how to get the mbtc out. when he has already done most of the work as far as bringing most of the variables to one class like total coins genisis block block size blah blah blah. However peercoin does have a fork of the myceluim wallet that interests me. But seems like it is still in heavy development.  Sorry about spelling and grammer mining on this computer and being so slow lol.

Here is a little lesson on some issues with building a android wallet
Bitcoin wallet uses spv (simple payment verification)
      a. bitcoinj is a java implementation of this
     b. This allows multiple clients to Download header only files of the block chain.
Currently there is no implementation for pos coins to do this
a. The Blocks that are created threw pos and pow are different and this information is not stored in the block header.

              1. Not sure how this works now that mint is pure pos
            2. the app needs this information to work so this is a large bridge to cross
Hash engineering digitalcoin and digitalcoinj great repo to fork for wallet a. PROS
  1. He implements multiple variables into one class for easy porting of the code

     2. He has not implemented pos coins but he is very interested in the process.
b. Cons
  1. currently pow only
   2. Alot of coding required the cpp to be rewritten in java
I have been combing threw cpp code of mint coin and let me tell you the main.cpp between mint coin and bit coin for pos vs pow coin is very different. This will be a lot of work or maybe very easy work for smart person.
My Views:
Yes there is a nice bounty on wallet but I think we need a small development team I am willing to be a part of. Bounty will be split If the team completes app.
Set up a donation address There are plenty of people who would donate mint to make this happen. It would be a nice incentive for developers to know there getting payed a little bit for work they do. If people donate and developers are contributing they should be tipped as there going along. This will allow more motivation and stronger community support.
