Weekly Update #134

[ul][li]Teehe (http://www.teehe.net/) is looking for a public offer in a peershare implementation (https://www.peercointalk.org/index.php?topic=3999). With peerchemist as the founder, who has been behind the Peerbox project and has been an excellent developer in the peercoin community.[/li]
[li]MatthewLM has just released his Android Wallet 2.3 for peercoin: https://www.peercointalk.org/index.php?topic=3331.msg38407#msg38407[/li]
[li]Another peercoin blockchain explorer: http://peer.coinchains.info/[/li]
[li]There was a outage with two of our main seed nodes on the network earlier this week, some users might have experienced difficulty initializing connection to the peercoin/primecoin network. Existing nodes on the network are not affected. The seed nodes in question are now up and operational.[/li][/ul]

Have fun!

Seed nodes are hard coded in the Peercoin client. You will need to launch a full node and then submit a PR for Sunny King or SigMike to review/merge into the core code base.

net.cpp

// Each pair gives a source name and a seed name.
// The first name is used as information source for addrman.
// The second name should resolve to a list of seed addresses.
// testnet dns seed begins with 't', all else are ppcoin dns seeds.
static const char *strDNSSeed[][2] = {
    {"seed", "seed.ppcoin.net"},
    {"seedppc", "seedppc.ppcoin.net"},
    {"altcointech", "dnsseed.ppc.altcointech.net"},
    {"tnseed", "tnseed.ppcoin.net"},
    {"tnseedppc", "tnseedppc.ppcoin.net"},
};
