[ANN]Faircoin - MULTIPOOL PAYS --- 20%--- BONUS! for the next week!!

[JustLurkin]

Thanks Alty! 

I am currently busy contacting several companies to get them to accept faircoin as a payment method.
If they choose to accept FAC, they will get the necessary exposure (on facebook and the fac website) to make the introduction a success.
In the meantime it would be great if members of our community could design a donation button and a "faircoin accepted here" button: this will improve our visibility.

Together we can make this coin a success. Let's show the world the strenght of our community!

Hi,

Something weird has happened to my wallet (last version 80501 from GitHub). I left it running for a few days, while being away, with wallet unlocked for minting. When I came back, it wasn't syncing anymore. So I closed it, removed peer.dat and blockchain, and restarted it. Now it's in sync with last block, but more than half of my balance has disappeared. All transactions are still here, however, and add up to the right amount (the one shown before closing the wallet).

I guess the balance number is wrong for some reason, but it's a bit scary. Does someone have an idea of what's happening?

Thanks

did you make a backup of your wallet.dat when updating the wallet? If so try loading the 'old' wallet.dat data. It should be ok now.

Hi guys,

I'm kinda new in PoS-Coins and am wondering why I'm not minting any Faircoins.

I'm in since day 1 when the coins were distributed and since then, from time to time i unlock my wallet using "walletpassphrase 'passphrase' 12000" and let it unlocked for about half an hour to an hour, but I'm not getting any coins so far ...

Am I doing something wrong?

I use the same "procedure" with some Mintcoins and it works perfectly with them ...

Thank you for your help.

We're not planning an unlock button
it's really not a good idea to leave your wallet unlocked


if you are looking to mint, run faircoin-qt -server
or add server=1 to your .conf

then from command line:
faircoind walletpassphrase YOUR_PASSPHRASE 99999999 true

Some "Mined" coin transactions have disappeared, but the balance is right now.

Thanks for your help!

type repairwallet and hit enter on console. This process will help you get your balance back.

Perhaps instead of a full unlock, you could add a "Mint" button, unlocking the wallet only for minting, doing the same as running the command you suggest to use.

type repairwallet and hit enter on console. This process will help you get your balance back.

Thanks, I'll try that.

quick question, as i dont have a lot of experience with PoS coins:

if my coins are on an exchange, does the exchange normally add the pos minting or do i get nothing?

Coins on exchanges should not be generating POS - the wallet should be locked.  If the exchange unlocked the wallet for minting, they would keep the coins and you would get nothing.  If you want to earn POS, keep the coins in your local wallet and your wallet open and unlocked for minting.

type repairwallet and hit enter on console. This process will help you get your balance back.

Thanks, I'll try that.

Once the repair process done, you have to close your wallet and open again

I really never lock my wallet cause i work behind a well configured Linux firewall and i make sure my system is updated and patched when ever needed. If you are OS security inclined I think you can deal with an unlocked wallet.

I've posted this on April 9th and sent it to dev on same day and still haven't heard from him

The Mac client http://fac.blockx.info/faircoin-0.9.0.1-macosx.dmg seems to crash on mid 2010 Mac (and earlier ).

I have tested the client on hardware of early 2011 and more recent and it works fine,  can anybody else test it and post your success/failure with your hardware specs?

thanks

It seems that a few people are having problems with the new Mac Build as well.

This is really an odd issue since the same build that crashes on some models works fine on others.

To people who've tried the Mac wallet on, can you please post the model, year, os version and witch build you used (from witch person you downloaded from).  We're trying to figure out the issue here.

Thanks

There's less worry when running linux, 95% of all computers run Bill Gate's piss poor OS, that's why 95% of all virus' and mall ware are written for it.

What distro are you running? i'm on mint, been a fan it for a few years now.
