Troubleshoot the qng node crash caused by the OOM memory overflow
Related information: The memory overflow problem of the OOM is a BUG of Ethereum itself. After Qitmeer MeerEVM uses go-Ethereum, when the performance of the qng node server is not high, it is easy for the node to crash and exit abnormally due to memory overflow. As a result, data is damaged and the data of the node needs to be synchronized again. Because the BUG is still waiting for the official Ethereum patch to be fixed.

The old QNG-1.0.17-release has the problem among the three available versions of qng; In go-Ethereum used in qng-1.0.18-main version, some of the latest official patches were manually added to fix it, but the synchronization performance of this version is low; The qng-1.0.19-dev version improves the synchronization performance. However, because go-Ethereum v1.10.26 has not been patched, the OOM issue cannot be fixed. The next version needs to be officially released.

Suggestion: When you use qng-1.0.17 or qng-1.0.19, you are advised to back up node data from time to time. This can reduce the synchronization time when node data is damaged due to memory overflow.

Qitmeer Network has been added to Ethereum-lists, and the EVM network list, and can be searched in chainlist.org using chainID 813 or chainName. Thereafter, When you perform front-end /wallet integration and web3 integration, you can also directly call common API to add Qitmeer EVM network just like adding Ethereum and other mainstream chains and realize RPC interface call without manual addition.

Staking redemption reminder

Information verification

The Staking redemption information confirmation and verification channel will be closed at 23:59 on November 20, 2022, and we once again remind users who have not performed information verification to log in to the official website in time to complete relevant operations during this period.

During the verification information audit, it was found that some users failed to verify the correct information according to the information submission process, thus increasing the audit cost. As agreed by the Qitmeer Team, 50 EVM MEER from the revenue of these users was directly deducted as the manual audit cost.

For the information verification operation guide, refer to the following documents: https://www.qitmeer.io/#/library/article/46

New “Income Redemption Application” channel on the official website

On November 21, 2022, the redemption of Staking assets will be officially opened, and the official website will add an “Income Redemption Application” channel.

For some users who have not submitted staking information verification, all staking funds will be returned to the original staking address. Staking earnings needs to provide a personal Staking information application for redemption, during which the Qitmeer Team will review the application information to confirm that the user’s application information is correct before issuing Staking earnings. In addition, considering that unverified users need Staking earnings queries, the query function of staking records will be retained for 3 months, during which users can still query the relevant historical staking details.

Special Reminder

The “Revenue Redemption Application” channel is open until February 20, 2023. Unverified users are requested to log in to the official website to submit a redemption application before this channel is closed.

Safety Tips

Recently, according to feedback from community users, there have been many fraud incidents in the community. Qitmeer Team hereby reminds users: to enhance safety awareness, be vigilant, and beware of being cheated. The following types of scams are very common in the community. If you encounter the following situations, please pay attention to the risks.

Strangers chat privately to steal property or information

Strangers in the community may message you privately at any time. If someone recommends a project for you to transfer money or let you register for unknown software, please be vigilant to avoid loss of funds or stolen information. You may also receive links or unfamiliar files from unknown sources. Most of the file names are official announcements or pornographic information. This file is likely to be a Trojan horse virus. Do not download or click it casually.

Anti-fraud strategy:

1.Don’t trust strangers’ private chats easily, if you are disturbed, you can choose to block them;

2.Do not click on unfamiliar files and links sent to you for no reason.

Unofficial Fraud

If you receive private chat messages posing as official personnel, such as guiding you to receive password red envelopes or asking you to provide information on the grounds of helping solve problems, etc., please do not believe it, let alone provide any account information.

Anti-fraud strategy:
1. Administrators will not take the initiative to chat with any users in private, please do not trust private messages claiming to be official personnel, if you need to contact them, please look for the administrator logo in the group;

2. Anyone who asks for private keys and mnemonic phrases in various names is a fraud, and please do not provide relevant information.

Fake official community fraud

Fake official community, the group is mostly robots and trolls, scammers may post digital asset replacements, transfer funds to the wallet to earn income, scan the code to receive airdrops, and other false investment induction information in the group, do not believe it, and don’t click on unfamiliar links and operation tutorials in the group. Be sure to protect your personal property and prevent being deceived.

Anti-fraud strategy:
Please look for the official community link to verify the authenticity of the community.

Wallet security

1. Look for the official download link of the wallet, and do not click on unknown links to download.

2. Do not accept APK installation packages from public places or strangers.

3. Please take good care of the private key/mnemonic backup. Once the private key/mnemonic is leaked, you will face the risk of losing digital assets.

4. Do not disclose your private key/mnemonic in public or to strangers. Try not to take screenshots of private keys/mnemonic phrases or connect to the Internet.

5. Be wary of unknown links and do not authorize suspicious links.
