I didn't try this yet, as I'm waiting for the production version. But I think there are some settings for the conf file that do the reorg. Some of the other guys have been using it so may be able to advise. The conf file should be in %APPDATA%\magi, but it isn't created by default, and I'm not sure on the filename.

The following lines are added to the conf (but not sure if that carries out the splitting automatically or if you still need to transfer your money (I'm sure one of the guys using the new wallet will help here),
Release notes for the new wallet are here: -

The above entries were there in my magi.conf but they didn't help my wallet to stake so the solution given to me was to increase my block size in bigger chunks (1000+) so was trying to send using the newly released development version which gave me the problem mentioned above. Anyway, i am waiting for the new stable release..

I have done it using coin control only...Have you tested it? did it work for you?

Certainly there are lot of improvements in the new wallet right  from loading/syncing etc...It's just that the regrouping/sending back to the same address didn't work for me...i tried doing it twice but failed on both the occasions (transaction id's below)...anyway no complaints, will just try with my old stable wallet and continue with staking..thanks for all the help.

I realise that I should have asked this question earlier.

Is anybody managing to actively reduce their hash rate during low block reward periods since SweetSpot stopped doing this actively? I've been running on 50% power since then but its not optimal. I'm wondering if anybody is actively monitoring the rewards and adjusting - or just taking a hit during low reward times.

Would be interesting to know.

I got similar results but on only a smaller scale, I'm still building my Magi funds. Magi rocks. The pump has added much more activity and liquidity to the market. Hopefully there are more people aware of the coin and active on the markets now.

Yes, Bitfinex was hacked and almost 120K BTC was stolen.

I've since decided to only leave active trades and a bit of spare BTC capital on the exchanges and store everything else in a safe wallet.

There is also a massive war going on between ETH and ETC which has also caused people to move their BTC and Alts to join in.

The BTC price seems to be stabilising now, and it looks like ETH is winning the battle with ETC.

I decided to take the plunge and use the new client on my main wallet today. I'll give that a go once the network has fininshed syncing. I added all the hosts to the magi.conf but still taking forever to find new hosts. I will see if it has found any more tomorrow.

yes mate if they will the price will rise up and the coin will grow more. good luck to us mate.

As people asked about the official wallet, bear with me to push out the wallet at some point.
