not a user problem. blockchain has been stuck at 747,644 for over a week. I was sync fine up until then. we need to keep up w vitalik codebase or we will be left in the dust like FTC. I dont like to say it but its the truth. Im on satellite and have no issues otherwise. close to 1K blocks behind now. telling us to Re-DL the client and stored data is going to lose people. Ive done it twice before but it didnt solve anything. I still got stuck until someone wedged the blockchain moving again.Im sure some of us would like to get paid into our wallets...

the error I seem to be getting is similar to BAD PEERS detected, which means we are getting hacked somehow or some other chain is trying to wedge into ours. This has happened as a hack before on other coins. similar to a hard fork which wasnt supposed to happen. people get stuck on the old nodes for some reason.
