We understand that there have been a few reports of synchronization and fork issues on some pools. The team is aware of how to fix the problem and are working diligently to resolve the issue.
At this time we recommend everyone use the original daemon for now.
PLEASE NOTE There is a new Windows and Linux daemon. We STRONGLY recommend everyone updates their daemon as soon as possible.
Please delete your p2pstate.bin file and your imbd folder in your programdata folder followed by a restart of your computer. From there, please choose the appropriate download, extract the files, and add admin permissions if applicable. From there please start derod and wait for the daemon to fully synchronize.
Regarding any missing transactions prior to March.5, there have been some fork issues that may have resulted in some blocks being orphaned or transactions disappearing for various technical reasons. We sincerely regret as a team that this happened and are applying all of our available time to rectify this without delay.
As always, I’m usually available on Slack and check forums regularly.

Getting these errors and my wallet hasn’t got any DERO that were mined in last two days!

Hello everyone, I’ve had an opportunity to review support’s posts and talk to him briefly. The fork issue will be resolved within the next 24 hours for anyone who may have missed it.
There are only two nodes that we’re recommending at this time if you’re having synchronization issues. --add-exclusive-node 89.38.96.169:18090 --add-exclusive-node 89.38.97.110:18090
Hi i just had to reply to let you know the wallet is working fine on windows. " dero_v6_windows_amd64 "
This wallet will sync on its own but freezes at 35700 - 38800.
after that you Have to run the derod from the cmd with the ( derod.exe --add-exclusive-node 89.38.96.169:18090 --add-exclusive-node 89.38.97.110:18090 ) or it will never finish syncing.
C’mon DERO guys, this needs to end! We (miners) have already lost a lots of coins and hashpower which could have been used somewhere else. I know that Serena here has been helpful a lot but I think you should either give out a message to tell all miners to stop until all issues are fixed or find a way credit all our lost coins.
When I try to sync my linux wallet with command in first post, this is what I’m getting -
[P2P2] INFO global src/p2p/net_node.inl:258 Host 89.38.96.169 blocked [P2P8] INFO global src/p2p/net_node.inl:258 Host 89.38.97.110 blocked
If you’re mining on the official pool you will still receive the Dero you’ve mined since v5 and v6 were released. Support will reply to you when they have a bit more time I’m reasonably sure. I just wanted to take a moment to alleviate any concerns you had about any recently mined Dero potentially going missing.
I also mine so I follow up with Capt regularly and we exchange information. I know that the Dero development team is putting in incredibly long hours to sort this out.
For a lot of teams they only have to code one fix into their codebase. For Dero, they’re coding the golang version in such a way that we will likely transition without most people initially noticing. This means that any fix that goes into the C++ code also needs to be properly accounted for in the golang code.
The Q1 roadmap is still on schedule even with the recent fork issue which should give you an indication of how much progress has been made in a very brief window of time (Q1).
There are two cases with you:
1] If you are mining on official pool you don’t loose anything, simple.
2] Update daemon to the latest releases, dl and replace data.mdb from http://seeds.dero.io/data.mdb see for more details DERO blockchain sync problem
Thank you very much for the responses @Serena and @DEVELOPER. Now I could sync my cli wallet with the above blockchain file and those two exclusive nodes. No issues with the wallet now and I can see the balance minus the amount of DERO (6.9) I have lost while mining on the official pool as it was out of chain which I had reported earlier. Is there any plan to refund/credit our lost DERO because of pool’s fault?
Thank you once again for all your responses and being pro-active to issues raised.
It is regrettable that the network had some fork issues that cost many of us some Dero and we are genuinely sorry for any stress or problems this may have caused.
I know this will not be the answer you’re looking for, but the Dero team is unable to cover any losses incurred because the blockchain is still highly experimental and prone to unexpected errors while the transition is happening.
What the Dero team is doing by rewriting the entirety of the CryptoNote protocol in golang is entirely uncharted territory so some hiccups should be expected.
The Dero team is aiming for a seamless transition that many users won’t initially notice because the transition is intended to be as smooth as possible. This means that the fix needs to be accounted for in both codebases and then properly tested. While it sounds like 2 codebases = 2x the workload, it can actually be more than that making sure they function correctly together.
