i've been staking since day one of the takeover.

so. Am I wrong and this is not the network weight??? ??
What is the network weight now from your wallet

Awesome bro

Guys I have been having the most terrible problems over the past 48 hours with the wallet not syncing and it continually losing connections. I've restarted it multiple times, deleted everything bar wallet.dat and bitcointx.conf and restarted, left it sitting there struggling to sync in the belief that it might catch up of its own accord and even shut it down for a while.

It's been truly abysmal. It will initially connect with one or two nodes, then it might get to as many as 8 or 9 within say 3 minutes but then within 10 minutes it's lost most of those and hangs on to maybe one connection for say another 5 minutes then goes completely offline. It hasn't been able to stake pretty much at all during that time because it's not synced.

I know the wallet's being worked on so I wasn't going to worry but it's so frustrating....until just now.

I'd previously had a bitcointx.conf file that I added nodes into from someone's post within the thread, but then I realised that about 48 hours ago I'd modified it by copying in the nodes listed in the op as follows:

addnode=73.52.197.36:28184
addnode=71.56.38.220:59906
addnode=104.254.88.242:56286
addnode=77.236.185.9:53672
addnode=77.225.131.51:61017
addnode=130.193.220.83:47960
addnode=94.181.24.61:28184


What's different to what I previously had is that there are port numbers on each address. So I removed them. And guess what? It's working like a charm now. I have 21 active connections and I'm staking again!

I now just have this in my bitcointx.conf:

addnode=73.52.197.36
addnode=71.56.38.220
addnode=104.254.88.242
addnode=77.236.185.9
addnode=77.225.131.51
addnode=130.193.220.83
addnode=94.181.24.61


The port numbers appear to be causing my wallet to not work properly. I don't know the reason for this (perhaps they're wrong?) all I know is it's working fine now.

I'll leave it up to you AltTrader and BTX dev to work out if my removing of the port numbers from the addresses in the .conf file is what's rectified my issue. If anyone else if having similar difficulties (and I suspect there'll be many) perhaps try this too.

I have the conf file and it was synced up but since last night it is out of sync and stuck at 211 blocks remaining.

All right community !

Now that next wallet will come in a few days, we would like to kow what is your vision for this coin.

What is your ideal BTX ?

What price do you think it will reach ?

 

Ideally technical issues are worked out and BTX gradually builds up value rather than some PnD. People make lots of money staking and it greatly beats Bitcoin returns. That said, we need that update first and the issues fixed. Branding and visuals are great, but problems have to be resolved.

any ideas when the wallet will be released?

Can we have repair wallet built in the GUI to remove orphan blocks?

Interesting idea
