[GPUC] GPU Coin | Mandatory Wallet Update

[jimlite]

1) Sorry, I don't know.
2) Last I heard from him was last Sunday (4/13) when he asked about some details on an order
3) Sorry, I don't know.

Lol, I guess he was alive last Sunday, and shipping a card.  Maybe you can get him to turn this coin around or hand it over to you and Micryon to do so.  Anyways, halving coming up soon.

[micryon]

1. If it tanks (due to lack of interest, market shift, BTC drop, or the owner disappearing magically, etc), he still legally owns the stock and the BTC
2. Not liable to provide refunds beyond the IPO phase
3. Can dissolve the LLC and walk away with the 'free' loan of BTC / USD / Equipment

The community is left holding empty bags, essentially through a legal scam. You'd have to prove his intent was nefarious for it to be illegal.

It's possible... but then that's just business as usual in the startup world..

Hello everyone,
First off I just wanted to make clear that I didn't jump ship.  I have about 4 btc in this project, 80+ hours and the ongoing costs of running the servers.  My reputation is extremely important to me and I want to keep it in good standing.

I will make sure I respond to any emails/PMs sent to me and help with anything I can.  Unfortunately I do not control anything in regards to the actual operation of the store.  I simply built and maintain the website.  All orders and emails go directly to Jaymes.  All payments go directly to a wallet that Jaymes controls.  His primary email is [email protected] and [email protected].  I remember he had a gmail account laying around if anyone still has it.  I recommend emailing him directly about these issues.  

Ditto..  Still here and willing to help on the coin dev side.. but can't do much to impact the real business model...  Also i have losses greater than 99% of you.. thank god for making it back on BlackCoin

Can you fill us in on whether he is :
2)Supporting the coin and contacting Micryon and you

Last time I heard from him was 4/10.

[jimlite]

So every other 1000 crap coins have no use or store, so what?
So why not just everyone promote the coin and miners will mine
because low diff, then word gets out, Asics come and ruin scrypt,
and we have a coin going up again. If black coin, White coin, Asia
coin can do it, why shouldn't GPU coin do it?

Or just some whale (more like guppy) just buys up all the GPU coin
on the exchange for like what? 1 btc? Then demand and price goes
up.  We got any whales here?

Did you ask him why he is the invisible man? Or if he is just a d-bag?

Sure , nothing stops us from putting up a marketing campaign to support this coin.. we still have hendr1x, and myself for support .

So yeah.. it can be done. even without the shipping of GPUs...  But it will be predominately a marketing exercise.

REVOLUTION TIME!

I can see you've got a strong community and some people still working on the project. It seems it is too much too handle for the people currently still working on it.

I was getting pretty irritated by all these great coins that lost the support of the developer, so I'm trying to start an independent foundation, the Coin Revival Foundation (CFA), that revives these coins and keeps advancing them.

My aim is to give altcoins back to the community and away from speculative whales!

Come to the topic to discuss this if you like and explain why GPUcoin would be a good coin to take into consideration.

The halving transition seems to have gone well.  Just mined my first 10000 blocks, #65538 and #65540, and they are getting confirmations.

There is this in the log:

and a bit later this:

Misbehaving: 173.195.56.63:8623 (0 -> 100) DISCONNECTING

I suppose these are nodes running the old wallet?

[waltsmith]

sounds like it, they will update soon i would guess.

Hi guys,

What is the new halving schedule supposed to be like? Thanks.

[micryon]

Hi guys,

What is the new halving schedule supposed to be like? Thanks.

Check here.. i've made it pretty clear now in the code: https://github.com/micryon/GPUcoin/blob/master/src/main.cpp#L1102

   if (nHeight == 1)
        nSubsidy = 400000000 * COIN; // premine for GPUcoin IPO Investors
    else if (nHeight >1 && nHeight <= 200) //launch at 200 with checkpoints, KGW kicks in at block 180 before that .. all zeroes
     nSubsidy = 0 * COIN;
    else if (nHeight >200 && nHeight <2600) //real start of mining at 2600 (roughly 1 day for this coin.. i think..)
     nSubsidy = 1 * COIN;
    else if (nHeight >= 2600 && nHeight <= 65535) //hard fork
     nSubsidy = 20000*COIN;
    else if (nHeight > 65535 && nHeight <= 315535)
     nSubsidy = 10000*COIN;
    else if (nHeight > 315535 && nHeight <= 565535)
     nSubsidy = 5000*COIN;
    else if (nHeight > 565535 && nHeight <= 815535)
     nSubsidy = 2500*COIN;
    else if (nHeight > 815535 && nHeight <= 5973024)
     nSubsidy = 1250*COIN;
    else
     nSubsidy = 0*COIN;

Anyone made a new Linux Wallet? 

[waldistons]

@tagged - here it is! as no officials here, this is not updated in OP and I'm still waiting for my bounty

Hi all! Happy upcoming Easter to all of You!

I would like to claim Linux wallet bounty. There is no bullshitware in this app as I'm not familiar with wallet code, so its unchanged original code and I compiled it from latest git sources on Ubuntu 12.04 32 bit. Damn boost libraries, had to put in a lot of effort to compile wallet... I did a test receive and send transaction, seems to work. I sent coins from faucet to first user with GPUC address in signature that I found from the end of this thread. All operating system info and proof that it's working is in screenshot.

If someone does not know, wallet.dat is in hidden folder in your home folder. (see screenshot)

I would like to receive my bounty on this address: GaHCtiCNPFM1Nqf3YkcRNV4kq3pLNMnozS
Also, tips welcome as well, as I spent more than 2 hours on this

Download link: https://mega.co.nz/#!iJRjEYCQ!6jknsjFskISIEeeyNKkKZei8pVRVModMx3_1ItlUC1E

P.S. Whoever is running GPUC faucet from home page, something is wrong with deposit address as I was not enable to send coins back. Wallet seems to not accept that address.
P.P.S. From now on, I accept Linux wallet compilation requests for BTC. PM if interested.

Is Jaymes still working as a nuclear reactor operator?

I think his employers should know about his legal scam operation, as they might want to reconsider letting someone like that operate such vital equipment.

[vesperwillow]

I'm not sure if he works at the local nuke station, but he claims to have been a nuke in the Navy. I'd bet he was kicked out with how things have been going. They don't usually let nukes retire easily unless they don't like them.

[kosmoplovci]

hello there.

i am running gpucoin p2pool node at http://p2pool.kosmoplovci.org:9404 and noticed a problem with network since yesterday evening which i was able to fix with small change in gpucoin network config in p2pool/bitcoin/networks.py file. in short, p2pool network seem to have 2 blockchains running in paralel on different p2pool nodes, one that is still presuming block rewards are 20000 and another which adopted block halving and is looking like the proper chain to me.

'bad' chain has a slightly different number of blocks, so it may not be obvious on first looks. fact that 'official' blockexplorer at http://explorer3.sancrypto.info/chain/GPUCoin shows old chain only complicates situation, as it looks like everything is fine when in fact it isnt. so, some p2pool nodes solve blocks from chain one, other nodes solve blocks from chain two, they get accepted/orphaned depending on the version of wallet running on particular node, and blocks found by BOTH chains are displayed on every p2pool node stats page, adding even more to confusion.

it looks like this is happening from yesterday evening when block halving took place. before that everything was working normally on my p2pool, i was getting shares with almost no orphans and regular payouts, and then suddenly large amounts of orhpan blocks started appearing and payments both in my server gpucoind wallet and local gpucoin-qt wallet stopped.

of course, first i checked the wallets, check code updates, restart wallets, even rebuilding blockchain from scratch, wallet always connects to the same blockchain - and not the one visible on mentioned blockexplorer (any other available?). (in fact, if that was the proper chain, i would actually have more GPUC that i actually do in my wallet now)

since my both wallets are compiled from latest sources at github and were working quite fine for past days and weeks, and since they are both on same blockchain (reporting same blocknumber and working cross-send-receive) i assumed this should be the proper blockchain so i proceed to search for a problem in p2pool code.

to cut story short, it appears p2pool code autodetects block reward and display it properly on stats page, however when it comes to accepting share and create block, it orhpans, and payouts are also completelly stopped. to try to fix this, i changed the SUBSIDY_FUNC value in p2pool/bitcoin/networks.py from 20000 to 10000 (to reflect current block reward) and it worked! accepted shares are again generating blocks as it should and p2pool pays out rewards in my wallet as it was doing before all this. the pool still gets lots of orhpan shares, but i think that is because of 2 chains running in parallel and orhpaning each other.

now, so if someone knows better what is going on and how to properly/permantly fix this kind of issues please do. i do hope this analysis may help find the best solution.

here are versions of software i use:
gpucoin-qt 0.8.7.2-g88e2a2e-beta (compiled on ubuntu 12.04 32bit)
gpucoind version 80702 protocolversion 70003 (compiled on debian 7 64bit)

Hi!
I have a problem. My wallet doesn't show the coins the pool send me.

Acctualy it shows it is synced, but I don't have  in the wallet the total amount of coins which are listed on transactions pool section.
What would you suggest?

[waldistons]

about what pool are You talking about?

EDIT: always check last block time in wallet! (help/debug) I've experienced that wallet says it's synced and clients connected, but last block is couple hours old. This is a bug on some windows wallets AFAIK.

[miaC]

gpu.suprnova.cc and  gpu.locl.ca
I've mined on both and it shows that they confirmed the payments to my wallet adresses, but my wallet didn;t received that amount.

I've updated to the new version v08.7.2 i;ve also added config file on appdata and still i'm not on the right way.
