Hi,

This morning when I tried to run protoshares-qt.exe I got the message "Error loading block database. Do you want to rebuild the block?". IRCC protosjares-qt was properly closed last time I used it.

Here is the debug.log:

Questions:
1) what does this "ERROR: CheckProofOfWork() : hash doesn't match nBits" mean? Which can be the causes?
2) Is save to "rebuild the block"? Which are the consequences?
3) If "rebuild the block" is not the way to go, what do you recomend me to do?
4) Last one, are my PTS save?

Thanks in advance.

Here is my way to resolve "Error reloading block database. Do you want to rebuild the block database now?" when starting mac client(it will always failed when you click yes and quit when no). Hope its useful for someone in the same situation.

Before you take any action to fix the problem, BACKUP YOUR WALLET!

1. start the client with command line" ProtoShares-Qt -reindex".

2. after reindexing, "no block source" for 1 hour, so i found some node from this thread(https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=355.0).

its useful:help->debug->console and input commands:
addnode 61.238.157.8 add
addnode 54.254.192.95 add
addnode 54.207.21.146 add
addnode 54.206.30.227 add
addnode 54.219.164.14 add
addnode 146.185.172.136 add
addnode 162.243.14.13 add
addnode 5.9.24.81 add
addnode 23.92.25.118 add

希望能见到各位。
也是Bitshares 的全球品牌市场推广的启动之日。

So i decided to finally move my protos from cryptsy to my own wallet, downloaded the mac wallet and it just won't connect, "no block source available"

i tried the debug method addnode add and also onetry no luck.

Anyone else was able to solve this ? seems like many ppl have this issue but no solutions yet ?

I came up the same problem with mac client this evening and found some useful node here(https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=355.0).
Guess you can try the same way.

addnode 23.92.25.118 add

thnx lib, its syncronizing now but v v v v slow :-P

im kinda giving up on the mac client if it doesnt improve in the next day or so lol

; :o我明白将来的dac客户端导入捐赠的信息就可以，但是这个信息是钱包文件还是什么？比如说blockchain coinbase在线钱包捐赠可以么?本地客户端的话又有哪些呢，Bitcoin-Qt  multibit Armory，都可以么？3i有没有说明白支持的钱包包括哪些？

Hi, I have > 10 PTS, I tried following 2 steps:
1. dumpprivkey ... on protoshares-qt
2. importprivkey ... on mmc client
but nothing get.
are there any other prerequisite？

如果能形成一个共识，认为比特黄金就是由当前红利率下的1盎司黄金债券的衍生品，那么所有的市场参与者都将获利。然而，市场不会一开始就‘信任’比特黄金。结果是所有的市场参与者最初挂单的价格会很散。当市场深度增加价格范围会缩小直到一个市场共识价格形成，该价格会接近当前红利率下的1盎司黄金债券的价格。

为什么市场会形成一个价格共识，感觉更像是一种主观的推测，而没有理论依据或者数学基础

[Update]谁能详细解释清楚这个问题， 有0.5PTS Tip
