RE: Breaking: Instantly exchange Bitcoin Cash to Bitcoin and 49 other cryptos

in #bitcoin • 7 years ago

What Electron Cash server are you using? I'm trying to follow instructions here and not making much progress. Seems to disconnect from electrum_abc.criptolayer.net:50012:s over and over again. I'm googling around, not finding much help yet.

    Ah, I got it working. Had to delete ~/.electrum/blockchain_headers as it was set to the wrong chain. IRC to the rescue! :)

      I spent all night on it and never got it to work. Pretty frustrating. :( I could never get it passed errors like this:

      [electrum_abc.criptolayer.net] catching up from 478560
[electrum_abc.criptolayer.net] requesting chunk 237
[Blockchain] verify_chunk failed bits mismatch: 402736949 vs 402757890

      Or if I'd start on a single server I'd end up getting stuck on block 478576 with errors like this:

      Exception in thread Thread-3:

      So far, it has defeated me, and I really hate being defeated.

      I got a little help in IRC, but not enough to make it work. Maybe my comp has some funky python setup or something. I dunno. I'm done fighting with it.
