Will the other thread be locked? If so you should put a link in the begining of the OP so useful info will be still available.

This coin will be lucky to get a market cap of 3 btc.

@midnightwish:

Looks to be that a bunch of wallets are staking without properly rewarding the masternode % of the PoS blocks.
Please look into this right away and push for an update that forcibly drops the offending/outdated clients from the network.
Otherwise, this remains a fundamental flaw in the masternode incentive. You can take most of the higher positions on the richlist as examples of this behavior (though not all of them).

On the other hand, if the coin will be 90% mined by the time you manage to get a working GPU miner released, it will probably not matter much at all that you fix the issue with masternode rewards (or anything at all). Would be good if you'd settle some deal with djm34, or any other capable miner developer for that matter. IIRC, OCMiner had said much earlier on, that it would be a 5 minute job to get a cuda version made. He's either lacking the 5 minutes, or perhaps the task was underestimated?

It's nice that you've approached this coin with a new algorithm and all, but if you keep ignoring the current flaws in distribution, there isn't much to expect ahead. One positive impulse right at hand, is awarding bounties for community contributions. I hope you can overcome these few hurdles and drive the project forward.
Best of Luck!

I made some adjustments to the seed nodes to help with keeping everyone sync'd up with the masternode list which should help keep the masternode payments consistent.

I really feel there is no flaw with the distribution but thanks for your input.  

djm the issue has been addressed.  I'm monitoring the situation and will adjust again as needed.

I'm running a MN, don't have any issues, I think. Getting 33 coins per block now (33%), so I assume that's okay?

The masternodes are working/earning correctly: but as djm34 explained, some of the larger holders, are not paying the masternode fees and instead take 90% of the stake reward for themselves. Masternodes are earning 33% of some stakes, but not earning anything from a bunch of stakes as well.

This problem is twofold, one affecting masternodes, one affecting stakers:
- people running masternodes are not receiving all of their due rewards
- some people are staking with much greater profit than others (almost double)

If this is not a distribution problem, I don't know what is...  ::)

sgminermdt-windows-upd,  ati amd 270,280,290 only hw , please help me.

Official sgminer is not working yet you should wait for a new version later, or you can buy a working one from djm34

Nonsense.
midnightwish what does it mean?
According your calculations should be - 12 miners, 6.9 nodes, 2.10 dev. Why 33?

Because it is 33% that goes to the masternodes.  33% of 100 is 33.  The block rewards vary so the net amounts will vary to match.

ps: adding a coin to bittrex costs 3btc (not seeing this happening  :D)

I mean with the algo ;) And i'm pretty sure that trex doesn't ask money for all listings.

3 BTC is only for a guaranteed add and sponsored status. Trex will add if they see the signs of large community interest. Unfortunately, this coin doesn't rise to that caliber, at this time.

Community isn't that small here too bad that the unmoderated topic was locked and we moved here. there were 9 pages of discussion in 3 days. If we would have a gpu miner more people would be involved for sure but actual community is not that small either

it was pretty large actually there was something like 2.5GH/s at 8MH/s per cpu it is like 312 miners

Do not make me laugh. A person 100 in the best case.

I agree, someone should create a GPU-miner. Lots of people have old rigs ready to mine something new.

@Dev: is there a possibility that you create something yourself? Or @Ocminer, are you able to do it?

Are you sure that SGminer or CCminer no?
I think that there are already at least 2 working options. "Cream" will be removed, then you will see them))))

You know that djm34 is in the thread right? Only one missing is wolf0 and then you would have the cream of GPU and CPU in the house.

djm34 is probably already mining with a GPU  ;D Put up a bounty and he might share it?

for some reason,  I would still prefer a bounty in btc...

Fixed.

lulz ppl still screwing with this? have ppl forgotten the first 6-8k blocks were mined by 2-3ppl with gpu miners? They spread out their coins now but when block explorer was first posted top 5 controlled over 95% and there was only one pool that had ~20%. Then dev out of nowhere made new ANN? PPl are crazy be warned ;) orig ANN https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1116894.160

If you were involved at launch or can read English than you know already...shady.

everything I said is accurate

Not sure if this was already posted but here is a window 64 build of the miner:

http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=62537288457890782834

You will need the visual studio 2013 c++ run time from here:

http://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=40784

I've had it running all night and seems to be good:

cpuminer -a qubit -o stratum+tcp://mdt.suprnova.cc:5146 -u username.worker -p password

Hi Djm34

That is fair, I have no way of really proving otherwise. I guess its up to people if they want to take the risk. I'm no genius C++ programmer I'm more of an business application developer. So this might not be perfect but it works for me.

None taken  ;D

You are 100% correct to warn people and I would have done the same thing. I had trouble finding a windows version so this worked for me.

I am still having issues with sgminer tho, it informs me its mining but when I check the pool it appears no results are coming through

Here is my command:

setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
sgminer.exe --algorithm midnight -o stratum+tcp://mdt.suprnova.cc:5146 -u Maxus.user2 -p ******
pause

Any ideas why it isn't showing up in the pool? I'm using a AMD R9 380

Ahhh, well that explains it. I think it might be out of my league but might take a look.

Not sure why they put it up if its not working. ???

My version should still be fine:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/o754w59da967g0j/cpuminer-multi.exe?dl=0

are the guy behind that coin: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1100713.0 ?

btw still no change regarding the richest wallets not giving their 33% to the masternodes on the coin they stake...

I had that feeling too but the small wallet bugs from this coin are not present in octane i think it is more like an octane fork by someone else with bmw algo

Or is this Bananabits fork with different algo

so why were there any reference to bananabits found in the code (see the previous thread...) ?
please dev, don't take us for idiot... nobody care from where you forked your coin, but at least be honest with it.

Fair enough, can I suggest you put that information near the link on the first page. I'm sure many people will think that it works at least (that is my definition of experimental) but is buggy or crashes, not that it is completely non-functional.

Can you also provide a link or information to the intended implementation specification of the BMW-256 algo? I might be able to have a crack at it when I get a some time.

Are there any news about a gpu-miner?
lg t.

Any exchanges?

who's buying ?

Already have some exchange ??

Not yet and i can't understand why some coins like ERR which are clearly made for dev dump can be listed on exchange and some coins with at least a little bit of innovation are lacking of interest

What is this? And how to read this info?
As your know most of the coins have very similar code bases. But any little bug could damage the whole blockchain. To avoid this people check the code both manually and automatically.  As I know ocminer automatically check code for already known bugs, so his checks couldn't find new bug. Earlz check code manually, but he also could miss something, because codebase is very huge. I chose different way. I wrote the script which compare code in one coin with code in other already inspected coins. So if you see something like "Good blackcoin arch " it means that i already inspected this code before in blackcoin's and arch's source, and I think that its safe. When my script finds new code it asks me to check it manually and tells me whih codebases is most similar, so 'CBlock::ConnectBlock                Most similar blackcoin, diff=5, codehash=1a0a6fb0d9bc6aefff4e'  means that most similar code of CBlock::ConnectBlock have seen in blackcoin and there is 5 places where something was changed.
Currently i check only most important functions in main.cpp.

Thank you very much for your review and i have some questions:
What does codehash means?
Do you have site/github/any-place where all your reviews are collected?
Why GetProofOfStakeLimit from blackcoin marked as Dangerous?

the local external ip is not yet detected . pleas try again in few minutes ??

wtf?

Distribution seems to be done. What's your plan for this coin, dev?

Hi,
I'm working on the website and documentation/write-ups for the coin this weekend.  The main focus on Midnight is around the Midnight Reserve Fund and what I'm calling Midnight Drawing Rights (MDR's).  I'm still working the specifics/mechanics of how the program will work but the concept is that MDT will be backed by MDR's, similar to how NAUT is buying gold, or the Sync Fund.  Similar to SDR's from the IMF, the MDR will be made up of a basket of crypto currencies that are determined quarterly (instead of annually in the case of SDRs).  The MDT in the MRF will be used to make a market and build up the holdings of the MRF behind the MDR's (ok, that's a lot of acronyms :P).  So the value of the MRF will set a par or reference value of MDT with some multiple.  What I am thinking through now is how we can maybe have some kind of redemption program, and what happens then if we allow redemptions to MDR swaps, perhaps the swapped MDT is burned?  I need to think through that a little more but once its been finalized I'll build a web app and an in-wallet interface to support it.  I think this program will be something a little unique as its a different twist on a couple of concepts that have been tried before, and it will put real value backing MDT.

Apart from that the next thing coming is a wallet rebrand and optimized staking wallet.

If I build a multipool for Midnight will anybody use it?

great job xadsa. are you female developer?
will u make code inspecting for another coins?

Can release a cuda miner for 0.25 btc... contact me...

Isn't it a bit late ? (no trolling intended - just saying :))

Are you interested anyway? You have not add a Cryptonote coin ever.
It is a legit question too. I always mine some other coins in your pool, just to sell them and buy moneros.

Is this a cryptonote coin? i can't find how is it related

No it is not, for sure.
But ocminer  is helpful for other coins that fall in one category: bitclone clones
Maybe he can be helpful in other coins too.

yep, look like he was (a bit too much) informed about this coin... before the launch

he follows a lot the new coins and launches...

Me ?

Nope, I wasn't, but it was a good exercise and fun getting Pool and CPU miner (both for free btw) ready quite fast.

Btw i wasn't informed about octane too, but that is what pool ops are doing.. creating pools :)

The lack of interest is because no one launched a GPU-miner. I'm pretty sure that people would have fired up their old rigs again for this coin.
Instead, a couple of clowns decided to solomine with their GPU-miner instead of releasing it to the community (it's normal to use it yourself for a while, but you need to launch it eventually) and the coin died due to lack of interest.

Good job guys! Props.

the clown will keep its 2 days work for him...

@ocminer... i also tried to setup yiimp on MDT but look like there is a problem with the tx coinbase when i submit to the wallet... which submit method is using your pool ?
