Odocrypt and MTP fixes

Post by Steve Sokolowski » Thu Aug 20, 2020 11:27 am

Several customers have been reporting MTP issues for some time. It turns out that Zcoin, the anchor coin for MTP mining, had two forks in a row, which was the reason the coin went into error. When we read about the coin having forked, we upgraded it, but there was yet another fork, and it wasn't clear in our initial searches that mentioned a fork that they were referring to a second fork. MTP mining is now back to normal.

After the downtime this morning, Chris released a new version of the mining servers, which resolved some errors with Odocrypt mining. The "submitted difficulty" column in "selected recent shares" is now correctly calculated for Odocrypt miners.

Good news you figured out the MTP problem. I'm guessing it will take a little bit for it start working again. Algorithm not showing up in Live

Our Zcoin client is upgraded and synced to the newly released version. However, Binance and Bittrex have locked their Zcoin wallets, and mining will fully resume when one of the exchanges unlock their wallets.

Another zcoin required update.
https://github.com/zcoinofficial/zcoin/ ... /v0.14.0.5

This is a mandatory release for users, exchanges, pools, miners and Znodes and re-enables Sigma privacy transactions functionality after the disclosed bug. Please update before block 296900 (approximately 26 August 2020: 1:30 PM UTC).
