You got stuck at block 1010000 ? compare your block hashes forks Worrying for me is the low network weight/difficulty





1.

So, Gridcoin's new PoS "stake v8 kernel" blocks came (see timeline)



but:

many nodes got stuck at block 1010000 e.g. my linux node with 3.6.0.2 got stuck







What works is:

to download the snapshot file (md5 hash: 1b0f6288038bf6afff89de8eef3fa67b, sha256: 544f8dd4184f69ab3c0afbe92d8981e068e1980f6e3293ead694d1e039e347b9) see here for how to apply it: !snapshot howto this snapshot brings you to around block 968k only (July 2017) I'd recommend to you to take ONLY the above snapshot file (see below: " Worrying for me is this ") see also: Why is there no new snapshot yet ? e.g. my snapshot file from February 2017 did not help unfortunately :-( my node did not seem to go past the v8-blocks...







2.

Please compare block hashes (e.g. in debug menu: getblockhash 1016248):

When your hash doesn't match, try a restart of the client (see here why). If that did not help: you might try from menu: Advanced » Rebuild Block Chain (you can also apply the snapshot/bootstrap and make also a !backup of your important files); OR: come to IRC and we'll help you

most uptodate in IRC!



read in #10 how to check your hash, general info on forks, etc..

forks:

besides the pre-v8 blockchain we have now (from clients still using version below 3.6.0.1)

there happened also a fork at block 1010358 to get yourself then on the "main chain" do this in your debug console: reorganize c9901362a87567d4ab09d04108957f3ae8382c4b1ef313ca62eb47c9105327be

4.

Worrying for me is this:

the low network weight (7 million), difficulty (<1), ... we had recently like >100 million net weight (e.g. >315 million net weight in August 2017) Gridcoin is/was now ideal laying there for being attacked (especially when someone prepared this beforehand) :-(

Someone said that the network weight would show now only the coins securing the network, so it'd be lower... but even so: that would now, at block 1010555, be only 1.5% of the 394 million Gridcoins out there.

one user noticed:

he: "A little heads up - there is a disparity for block 1010655 posted to the steemit article, I have a completely different hash for only that block but everything else is identical. Hash for 1010655: 57d27b7c6be701758c547e512c9e658cecb2256c631c6dcfc0829e8951d5def5"

me: "let me check again

ok,I have yours now also

could mean that the blocks reorganized at that point, or actually after I posted it

I'll keep the value in the legend, just in case for later checks"
