Has anyone been able to register at Cryptopia since Christmas?

Has anyone been able to register at Cryptopia since Christmas?

I had no issues. Bittrex, on the other hand... I wonder what's happening that they needed to close registrations?

We are ready and running. I believe the hf will hit in 4-5hrs we have 24 miners ready and running in anticipation.  We have found blocks. only 3 but that better than none.  Im not expecting us to hit anymore in the next few hours, but who know.  Anything can happen.

Thanks for posting the info & welcome in our friendly Magi community!

I wouldn't download it from website for obvious reasons.
They are compiled for either "normal" windows or linux users.
For users with raspberry PI or odroid etc you'll need to compile the program yourself from (github) source.

Not sure what odroid os is using, but would be more or less same as raspberry pi,
you could check
https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@gridcat/how-to-install-coin-magi-wallet-on-your-raspberry-pi
for guidance and adjust if needed for your odroid setup

You won't believe it... but I actually got this working. I ignored a lot of the instructions about one of the librarys needing to be downgraded - I assumed that surely these issues would be sorted by now.

However, it appears that I have the Magi Wallet setup!

odroid@odroid:~$ magid getinfo
{
    "version" : "v1.4.5.2",
    "protocolversion" : 71064,
    "walletversion" : 60000,

    "newmint" : 0.00000000,
    "stake" : 0.00000000,
    "blocks" : 19712,
    "timeoffset" : -1,
    "moneysupply" : 1122507.23397985,
    "connections" : 4,
    "proxy" : "",
    "ip" : "yadda yadda",
    "ipv4" : "yadda yadda",
    "ipv6" : "yadda yadda",
    "difficulty" : {
        "proof-of-work" : 2.47041772,
        "proof-of-stake" : 0.00737125
    },
    "testnet" : false,
    "keypoololdest" : 1515186515,
    "keypoolsize" : 101,
    "mininput" : 0.00000000,
    "paytxfee" : 0.00010000,
    "errors" : ""
}

A few questions I do have:
1) How do I know what my wallet address is?
2) How do I know what block I'm currently sync'ed up to?  I really don't want to do much more until this Hard Fork is completed?
3) The next thing to do is to setup a CPU Miner. There seems to be a few "flavors" of miners about - what does everyone seem to be using and why?

it's because it's using a "Long Term Support" version of the openssl files, Supported till 2019, rather then the latest ones which only have a short 6 to 12 months of support (i think). (Easier for long term stable development). that's why you have to down grade those files.

1) to display all addresses in the wallet:

Code:

magid getaddresses

to generate a new address:

Code:

magid getnewaddress

to show your current balance:

Code:

magid getbalance

for a full list of commands type:

Code:

magid help

to see what a specific command does ( like `getbalance`) use:

Code:

magid help getbalance

2) in `magid getinfo` look for the `blocks:` line that's the current block you've synced to.
check https://chainz.cryptoid.info/xmg/ that will tell you the latest block number.

3) I use the miner in the magi github :
https://github.com/magi-project/m-cpuminer-v2/releases
it gives slightly better hash/s than the others listed in my tests.

Many thanks for this. If I had to downgrade the files, I seriously couldn't have got this across the line.

Thanks for all the commands - very helpful. I did run the 'magid help' command and saw a list of all the options, but I wasn't sure what did what.

And thanks for the Miner advise. Appreciated.

Seems like most posts here get ignored, so I'll just ask again. Anyone here verified on bittrex and willing to help me buy some coins while I wait for their verification crap to go through? It's been 6 days since they disabled me right after accepting my documents. I don't know what to do since they just don't reply, so I don't want to miss buying some while they're not too expensive.

I have a valid bittrex account, so i can help you if somebody else didnt already help you. you can pm me and we swap phone numbers or whatever you want!

Seems strange that you don't want to risk using Cryptopia - but you are willing to risk sending money to strangers.

Whoever trades: Make sure you use an escrow service

Is there any Intel optimized miner? I am getting kinda low hash rates.
