What is Particl?

Particl is a decentralized, open source privacy platform for trading goods and services without intermediaries. The ecosystem currently includes the digital currency PART and the Particl Marketplace application.

PART is the cryptocurrency of the Particl blockchain. It is an independent usable secure and confidential digital currency specifically designed to power a marketplace and acts as its settlement layer. It uses several security, encryption, and privacy protocols to make sure no personal information and data can be collected when transacting on the marketplace.

For more information please visit https://particl.io and https://particl.wiki. The Particl Desktop application is available in this repository https://github.com/particl/particl-desktop.

Getting Started

A new Particl wallet will need an HD master key loaded and an initial account derived before it will be functional.

The GUI programs will guide you through the initial setup.

It is recommended to use a mnemonic passphrase. To generate a new passphrase see the mnemonic rpc command. Loading the new mnemonic with the extkeyimportmaster command will setup the master HD key and first account.

To create an initial new HD master key and account from random data, start particld or particl-qt with the parameter: -createdefaultmasterkey.

Remember to backup your passphrase and/or wallet.dat file!

License

Particl Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See COPYING for more information or see https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.

Development Process

The master branch is regularly built (see doc/build-*.md for instructions) and tested, but it is not guaranteed to be completely stable. Tags are created regularly from release branches to indicate new official, stable release versions of Particl Core.

The contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.md and useful hints for developers can be found in doc/developer-notes.md.

Testing

Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people lots of money.

Automated Testing

Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run (assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: make check. Further details on running and extending unit tests can be found in /src/test/README.md.

There are also regression and integration tests, written in Python. These tests can be run (if the test dependencies are installed) with: test/functional/test_runner.py

The CI (Continuous Integration) systems make sure that every pull request is built for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and that unit/sanity tests are run automatically.

Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing

Changes should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the code. This is especially important for large or high-risk changes. It is useful to add a test plan to the pull request description if testing the changes is not straightforward.

particl-core's Issues

Change the default ring size in the cli commands to be the same as in Particl Desktop

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The default ring size in the cli commands is set to 5 while the in the Particl Desktop is set to 8. This makes anon txs generated by the cli commands with default options distinguishable from the ones coming from the Particl Desktop wallet.

Describe the solution you'd like
Please set the default option to the same value as in the Particl Desktop wallet.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Not many alternatives as people often dont bother changing the default options.

Additional context
Arnold (zaSmilingIdiot) promised to run some tests and examine the possibility of increasing the default ring size value in the Particl Desktop 3.0. Could you guys (Kewde, Tecnovert) please coordinate with him to set the default values in the corresponding cli commands to the same as values as in PD wallet.

Thank you in advance :)

[QT] Checkbox for "unlock for staking only" misalignment

How do we back up the wallet?

As the title said:

I backed up the wallet.dat file. Is that good enough?

I can not find a place for me to backup the private keys.

validateaddress should contain "iswatchonly" : true/false

Could the key "iswatchonly" : true/false be added to the output of the API-call "validateaddress"?
BarterDEX is using this information. Thank you.

Error: Wallet locked, please enter the wallet passphrase with walletpassphrase first.

NOTE: I tried to join the slack to ask this there, but it says the invite limit has been reached. Also note, I installed and ran particl-1.0.0 (the angular app) before running core, if that means anything.

Describe the issue

Unable to generate any kind of address or unlock the wallet.

Can you reliably reproduce the issue?

If so, please list the steps to reproduce below:

1. untar the .tar file downloaded from partcl.io, cd into the bin/ directory and run ./particl-qt
2. get message on console "Warning: Wallet wallet.dat has no master HD key set, please view the readme."
3. Follow steps from this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZ66ud54l2Q
4. On the import tab after generating a new recovery phrase I'm getting the error "Error: Wallet locked, please enter the wallet passphrase with walletpassphrase first." (Have tried both with and without a recovery passphrase)

Expected behaviour

I'm assuming it should function the same as the supplied YouTube link.

Actual behaviour

If I try and bypass the HD wallet set up and generate a receive address it tells me 'Wallet has no active master key."

What version of particl-core are you using?

getaccountaddress shows address that is not mine

I have particl wallet (branch 0.16) running, issued particl-cli getaccountaddress "" and it showed me an address. Someone sent me coins to this address, but i can not access them. I then looked with particl-cli validateaddress and it shows me "ismine": false for this address. How can that be? When i issue particl-cli getaccountaddress "" again, it shows me the same address. This should be the behavior of getaccountaddress: http://chainquery.com/bitcoin-api/getaccountaddress

PARTs sent to stealth address generated from QT GUI or command line are not displayed in the balance sheet

I generated a stealth address using the 0.18.1.6 QT wallet GUI and a Ledger Nano X (latest firmware: 1.2.4-1).
Next I sent some PARTs to it from another wallet (Particl Desktop). While the transaction was registered both on Particl Desktop:
https://ibb.co/r76wkck
and on the QT

Status: 13 confirmations
Date: 2/8/2020 10:30
Transaction ID: fb8544ae90f77ad8fe92d019b7f521ed0f96b018e3fb65e4f5936f84eeea869b

Confirmations: 13
Block hash: bff1f796ad99f2d61eb84a7299bbd8f4600e6e45b975e50137b45b9d4ea460e9
Block index: 2
Block time: 2/8/2020 10:37
Details:

]

the PARTs never appeared on my balances and I can not see them in my Coin Control Features :/

Actual behavior
No matter what I did, the balance on my QT wallet remain unchanged. The sent coins are nowhere to be seen...

To reproduce

1. Generate a stealth address on QT from your ledger
2. Send funds to that address from another wallet (anon output)
3. Confirm that the transactions is happening but funds do not appear in your QT balance

Tried both on QT 0.18.1.6 and 0.19.0.1. Same result

manageaddressbook RPC call returns null when wallet is locked

Describe the issue

Can you reliably reproduce the issue?

If so, please list the steps to reproduce below:

1. encrypt wallet
2. ./particl-cli manageaddressbook newsend prQj8cHAbUxeXbLY8d1EwtvaECmHi2snez test

Expected behaviour

It should add the address, as the address book isn't encrypted as far as I know.
It should potentially throw and error if it does require an unlock

Actual behaviour

returns null

Change strMessageMagic to not collide with Bitcoin

Value of strMessageMagic is set to "Bitcoin Signed Message:\n", this does not make sense as it collides with Bitcoin.

See https://github.com/particl/particl-core/blob/master/src/util/validation.cpp#L19

Please change it to something else.

CLI variables naming rules [variables with "-" instead of "_"]

In the CLI, some variables are named with "-" caracters. These caracters are interpreted minus by JS and some languages.
Example: In the getstakinginfo request, the variable last-search-time

It would be great to have the same naming rules for the CLI variables : Probably "_" or nothing everywhere.

change list for releases

Please include a change list on every release, also mention if upgrading is mandatory, I am watching your repo and I have a few nodes in production and testnet and I want to be able to know when action is needed because it becomes hard to track/follow with many coins on my watch list.

sporadic witness failure on transactions

A transaction converting public outputs to blind outputs resulted in.

Transaction commit failed: bad-witness-nonstandard (code 64)

Expected behavior

A successfully signed transaction with valid witnesses.

Actual behavior

A transaction was created that returned bad-witness-nonstandard was returned.

To reproduce

Seems very sporadic, no known way to reproduce at this point in time.

cli-listaddressgroupings crashes daemon in particl-0.16.0.2

On a fresh install of particl-0.16.0.2 on rpi:
In order to restore my wallet I replace ./particl/wallets/wallet.dat

cli-getwalletinfo shows the correct balance
cli-listtransactions shows previous transactions as expected

but
cli-listaddressgroupings crashes the daemon immediately

After restarting the daemon I can reproduce this behavior.

Attached is the logfile, from starting the daemon in debug-mode until the crash:
debug.log

The file "db.log" in ./particl/wallets is empty.

What is the correct way to restore a wallet in the cli-client?
cli-importwallet does not seem to do anything and i cannot find more information on it.

Info:

• I extracted "particl-0.16.0.2-arm-linux-gnueabihf.tar.gz" from github
• My rpi runs an up-to-date raspbian
• The wallet file used is a backup from particl-qt on another machine.
• I ran particl-0.15.1.2 before, where I did not encounter this issue

Many thanks

Inefficient Staking of UTXOs

Hey guys, I just noticed that particld doesn't seem to automatically split staked UTXOs larger than a certain size. This results in inefficient staking for users that transferred a large amount of PARTs in one transaction as it renders all coins dormant for 8 hours until they are able to stake again.

Other iterations of PoSv3 (Blackcoin namely as Particl is forked from it) automatically splits UTXOs larger than 200ish BLK in order to maximize efficiency across the network.

Is this intentionally done or just something the dev team has decided not to fork with PoSv3?

If not, then I suggest implementing an automatic splitting of staked UTXOs into two UTXOs for every staked UTXO above xxx PART to make the staking and network more efficient.

Create 32bit Binaries

This GH Issue is for the creation of 32bit binaries for upcoming Particl Core releases.

Bitcoin did drop them some time ago which, unfortunately, is proving problematic for people still using 32bit systems.

Thanks

Manual UTXO locking issues

Expected behavior

Manually locking the output in Coin Control should lock the UTXO and prevent spending it.

Actual behavior

Output seems locked, but completely disappears from Coin Control > Inputs... window after a while. Associated address also shows lower balance.

To reproduce

1. Coin Control > Inputs...
2. right-click and output > Lock unspent
3. close window, navigate somewhere else
4. go back, open Inputs... window again and the output is gone

When you restart Core, it appears again, unlocked as nothing happened.

filtertransaction API : add transaction count

When filtering transactions in the GUI's history, we need to get the total amount of filtered transactions to compute the number of pages of answers. We need to implement a total count in the filtertransaction's answer that is not limited to count and skip parameters for this purpose.

Code should be re written and re organised

Currently I think all the Devs can agree that the Particl code is very messy and all over the place, the same code has been in use since 2017 when it forked from Bitcoin and devs have been trying to add to it, sometimes missing changes from the main Bitcoin code base. I think it would be much easier if the code was formed from Bitcoin again and the code was rebased as digibyte have recently done.

This clashes with the rest of my setup.

Fix CI testing

Travis CI fails on tests. Would be nice if this gets fixed. Was some time ago mentioned as a negative first impression.

Ledger Nano X not importing

Given the particl core 0.19.2.8 wallet with 64 bit windows, my ledger nano X is not being found when pressing the import button.

I can confirm that the app is open in the ledger device.

The exact debug text given:

Waiting for device.
No device found.
The Particl app on your device must be open before importing.

HD-wallet can not be imported together with PD installation

I tried to install particl-qt and to import Ledger Nano S. It always failed to import the HD-wallet. It asked for a passphrase which didn't exists. Making the same installation and HD-import on a clean system without Particl Desktop installation worked fine.

Testnet v3. Syncing of blockchain is not occuring

Windows 10, 64 bit.
testnet v3 RC4
core 0.19.2.13

After having tested testnet v.3 for quite a while, I re-installed the app for another test round. I can't get the app to start syncing the chain. I'm connected to between 1 and 3 nodes, sometimes popping to 4 for a minute. The syncing just won't start, even after restarting the app multiple times. I have a firewall exclusion and allowed network traffic through the app. I have had this issue in the past but was resolved by itself, now it pops up again and to me this seems important to log. I have used clearbanned command and added the seeding node addnode "212.47.250.16:51938" "add". Without success

Cold staking problem on Pi

Actual behaviour

I think I found a little bug in the core. I'm setting up cold staking, Pi to Pi, and the wallet has to be fully unlocked for that. But when you enter the cold wallet staking key with wallesettings, it goes back and locks your wallet if you had unlocked it with 0 for an indefinite time. You have to go back and unlock with 65535 to make it accept it, and I assume I will have to periodically go back and unlock .
