Nothing should be lost if you mined them, as only the last 2 days blocks regenerated and most are pos ones (only a few could be pow). You could try with the 1.5 client (we should caught up now with the old blockchain, so you don't need to use the new client with blacklist), and sync from the scratch.

Well i trust the client this is the current height:

Pool is back up with this chain, all welcome back
str.minar.cc

If I try changing over to the new blockchain I lose all my coins bar 0.8, everything I have from over a month of mining transactions as well as anything I have transferred in the past day or so to other accounts shows a question mark and those that were half way validated are never going to be validated?

Changing back to the backup of the original chain restores my balance, etc... but it won't sync ?

In changing to the new block are we expected to lose everything we have mined, if that is the case i'll be rather annoyed

btw I am stuck on 187926, my client never made it to 191569.. any help would be appreciated!!! THANKS

UPDATE: Its worth mentioning that after re-syncing the new blockchain from scratch I get the same problem with my wallet being empty bar 0.8 of a coin which is unconfirmed. Even though the other transactions in September show as valid the coins aren't there HELP! Time to abandon Starcoin?

Hi Swiftshoot,

Yeah that was my first thought, but the check came back no errors???

Any other ideas??

sync from scratch with 1.5 show balance down 26.5k.

edit: fixed, thanks to infinitevs for the post - https://bt.irlbtc.com/view/259012.msg3375779#msg3375779

These are the only clients connected to Starcoin and they are not sharing their blockchains.  Please update your wallets so they act as listeners on the network and help others to get the chain.  Otherwise, Starcoin will die.

posts like the above list IP addresses and people don't like their IP published on some forum frequented by hackers and scammers, makes easy target, and you're likely to know what you'll find there. Perhaps there should be a rule of only sending peer info via PM at request.

Dreamhouse or NZDude, can you help with our coin loss/re-sync issues!!??


Swiftshoot my client is set to listen=1 and I have set to irc=1 and dnsseed=1 also, I checked getpeerinfo and you are right none of my peers are sharing their chain either, if you want to PM me your IP i will do the same and we can start by sharing with each other.... if that will help..

but just to clarify how exactly are you coming to that conclusion?


HippieTech, could you please elaborate on that?

regards,

infin.

The IP addresses in getpeerinfo is public domain.  Anyone can get this information either way.  Not posting IPs does not mean it makes you safe.  All they need to get your IPs are to run getpeerinfo themselves.  Hack attempts are not welcomed but this is the only way letting the general public know of possible issues.

If you are afraid of getting hacked, start learning about security and setting up defenses or the Internet is not a place for you to toy around in.

Personally, I am not afraid of people getting my IP Address.  My Honeypots will do their job in detecting intrusions and record/report infiltrations.

Paranoid users can simply do one thing right... power off their Internet connection.

Ok found the listen=1 bug.  Starcoin has no uPnP capability and therefore the ports don't get forwarded to your Router.
You will need to add an entry into your Router or uPnP settings within Windows to allow users to connect to you.
