BlakeBitcoin Ƀ+

BlakeBitcoin was inspired and requested by the Blake community and is a cryptocurrency designed to use the Blake 256 algorithm based on Blakecoin and Photon with AuxPow and is merge mined with them and is supported within the blake ecosystem by the Blake Cryptographic Society (https://blakecrypto.com).

Blake-256(optimized) is faster than Scrypt, SHA-256D, Keccak, Groestl

The algorithm was written as a candidate for sha3, Based on round one candidate code from the sphlib 2.1 and reduced rounds to 8 aka blake256r8.

Current developers: BlueDragon747 and Cinnamon Carter

What is Merged Mining? Familiarize yourself now: Information about merge mine here (http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/273/how-does-merged-mining-work)

BLAKE hash is one of the five hash functions in the final of the NIST SHA-3 Competition. BLAKE is one of the simplest designs to implement, and relies on previously analyzed components: the HAIFA structure and the ChaCha core function.

I think something is completely wrong with this coin.

I just built the wallet. And it's already at block 8800 now. I'm also seeing like a block per second getting added.

Now I just noticed this:

Quote

Block target time is 2.5 minutes
re-targets every 2016 blocks

What?? That means the difficulty gets retargetted every 3.5 days. How can that possibly be right?

Unless I'm missing something here, this is a pretty big fail.

The way I see it is that the wallet is just released and has little data to base retarget on and the span for target data as I posted above is huge

I could port my Blakecoin diff algo to it as I designed that to avoid issues like this but the diff is increasing very very slowly 0.00390625 > 0.00589282 ::)

That still doesn't make any sense. When the difficulty only gets retargetted every 2016 blocks, there is no way this can go well. When the diff is low, it means the block time will be super short when hashes get added. When the diff is high, it'll take forever to get to the next block when the hashrate goes lower.

The whole point of difficulty is to keep the block time reasonably constant. When it only retargets every 2016 blocks, there's no way that can work.

i got a linux qt wallet to compile for this, however the wallet/gui only loads under sudo presently. when i try to run it without sudo, i get two pop up errors:

Code:

Unable to bind to 0.0.0.0:356 on this computer (bind returned error 13, Permission denied)

Code:

Failed to listen on any port. Use -listen=0 if you want this.

any ideas what is causing this?

EDIT:
it works fine if i set listen=0 in the conf file, but i thought this is supposed to be set to 1.
Here is the Linux-QT wallet for BlakeBitcoin. It was compiled on 64bit Linux Mint 16, but should work on many other distributions.

Code:

Network Info
Difficulty 	0.02357130
Est Next Difficulty 	3.31476450 (Change in 2 Blocks)
Est. Avg. Time per Block 	1 second
Current Block 	18338

After 18338 blocks, the difficulty is still <1? Sounds like a huge premine to me.

was released on pool at 0 blocks was no chain at all not even a single premined block!

atm cpu seems best due to pool taking time to process and send blocks to miners :'(

"blocks" : 25297,
"difficulty" : 0.09428520,

Blocks are being mined at a rate of ~1 per second. If 8064 blocks is the retarget time, why is the diff still below 1?

Downloading and trying to run the client now, it cannot sync up to the blockchain, it's processing old blocks more slowly than new blocks are being added. This makes mining impossible. I had 30GHs pointed at ny2 pool through launch and my balance shows ~900 BlakeBitcoins. If the pools aren't finding the blocks, and a new miner can't mine blocks, who has mined the giant sum of outstanding Blakebitcoins thus far?

Anyone mining from the wallet is doing A ok. All the power hashers aren't getting the jump on regular miners as usual.

I have wallets synced which I launched earlier in the day, and new wallets I am attempting to setup which can not sync.

I've mined at the wallet solo from 2 locations with cpu and gotten 0 blocks.

I've mined at the merged pool and gotten very few blocks.

I've mined against my own merged pool and gotten 0 blocks.

Now anyone who downloads the wallet and wants to mine, can't, period. The blocks are being generated at ~1 per second so a new client cannot sync up.

Why if the network is moving at 1 block per second would the difficulty not be above 1 after 3 retargets? Something is way off here.

I don't mind hoarding the large eye candy when I type ./blakebitcoind getbalance, but this sounds like a failed launch to me.

Blockcount 26164
Difficulty: 0.09428520

The difficulty retarget is totally off. There is a new block every second and the difficulty is about the same as it was 8000 blocks ago. Mining is basically about who has the network speed to add a new block instead of actually solving the block.
Whether it is a premine or a public instamine, this blockchain is not very useful. I suggest reboot now

I have no problems with mining solo with standart wallet. I'm using the next settings:

Code:

listen=1
gen=0
maxconnections=180
rpctimeout=30
rpcallowip=127.0.0.*
rpcallowip=192.168.1.*
rpcport=243

Then you haven't downloaded a new wallet and tried to sync up recently?

New wallets at multiple locations can not sync up because blocks are being created faster than a new client can process them.

Why after 3 difficulty retargets is the difficulty still below 1, on a coin with a block time target of 3 minutes?

What I am saying is that if you got the wallet earlier today and synced up then you are fine as an early adopter. If you are one of these late adopters who wants to pick it up a mere hours later, you can't.

Most of all i agree with you however i don't think rebooting would solve the problem, moreover it would be worse. There are around 100 miners mining this coin right now and those would be really angry if their coins would just disappear overnight. Of course as a current miner i am defending my point. The right solution i think would be an imidiate hard fork with kgw implemented at block 50.000 so it should be taken as a mined ipo, that early miners got some more shares.

I'm using the newest wallet both on my Windows workstation and Ubuntu mining rig (for ubuntu compiled it from git). No problem.

Not newest wallet version, a new wallet install. If anyone goes and downloads the wallet now and sets it up they cannot sync to the network, as I've said. I'm just going to shut up about this now and wait to see what happens. I'm gonna pop an effin blood vessel over here ;D

And I should admit, that Bitcoin had the same diff on the block 27353. But on the block 70000 - 161, on 100000 - 14 484. I think, that it's working as it should be, but instead of using slow CPU mining and slow SHA-256 algo - we using powerful GPUs and very fast Blake algo. This is my point.

Can you please answer my question then? Why is the difficulty not adjusting properly? Is the block target time 3 minutes, or 1 second?

I've deleted my blockchain and it is donloading 3 blocks/sec so not being able to sync up is not possible you just have to wait a lot but it will get synced for sure before a high diff

And what if comes a multipool and mines thousands of blocks and then leaves and a block will be mined in 30 mins?

Ok thanks for the info hopefully it will sync. On a Core i7 I'm seeing only 100 blocks processed for every 200 blocks found.

Just downloaded and installed on a new machine fine. Make sure you don't set generate true until after it is sync'd. Otherwise it may take a long time.

Make sure you add some nodes, a geographically closer node can seed blockchain faster

Just downloaded and installed on a new machine fine. Make sure you don't set generate true until after it is sync'd. Otherwise it may take a long time.

setgenerate is disabled by default as far as I can tell. Ive tried to start 3 new clients and none can sync up. I have 2 friends who have started the clients and haven't synced up in 2 hours. I'll keep at it.

nodes operating as full nodes with over 20 connections.

No reboot No kgw No hard fork

Can you please answer my question then? Why is the difficulty not adjusting properly? Is the block target time 3 minutes, or 1 second?

it will reach an equilibrium but just like Bitcoin the diff is playing catch up due to the 8064 retarget that only adjusts in steps!

This is a merged coin and I will support it on my pools, I think you are missing the point a good mix of rewards on pool is great no loss in hashing power still mining BLC then BLC+PHO then BLC+PHO+Ƀ then BLC+PHO+Ƀ+ ... +N until no more coins can be done!

Why multipool or singles coin mining when you can mine them all and sync catch up when diff does, considering it was just released I dont see the issue even though atm the pools are getting less than intended it will even out over time ;D

4+ years too late to get any Bitcoin give it a few days to catch up and if you mining other coins in a merge its just a win win win ;D

So who is buying the pizza's 8)

No reboot No kgw No hard fork

Can you please answer my question then? Why is the difficulty not adjusting properly? Is the block target time 3 minutes, or 1 second?

I don't understand, you told me earlier your pool was not working and you believed it was because of the fast block times. You recommended cpu mining. I had 30GHs on your pool over many hours with the difficulty below 1 and got around 1k coins, far below what I should have gotten.

On my wallets which are synced I have not gotten a single block. My new wallets have still not synced. I setup 2 new wallets in 2 new locations on 2 new computers, they have also not synced.

If the issue is resolved by mining at your pool then I'm on my way, but I was under the impression the merged pool wasn't working properly for blakebit.

I'm not sure if any of the pizza chains here have locations where you are:)

Why distribute a coins mining power? For the security of the network.

if you got a good connection and some luck then try solo it cant hurt 8)

Remember with a pool it talks with wallet calculates block work sends to worker then shares are sent back and submitted to the main chain and the mmp, as you can see this is a longer pipeline than just your miner + wallet or even as I am doing "setgenerate true" in wallet

Post by: cinnamon_carter on May 13, 2014, 01:52:06 AM

Note , the merged pools are able to mine Blake Coin, Photon and BlakeBitcoin (or B+) as i see it is called here....

With the difficulty of the new child coin very very low compared to the other two (Blake Coin & Photon ) by the time a share is submitted in the pool the blocks are being generated so fast it is no longer valid............note this will be a short term problem only since B+ difficulty will rise x4 each retarget for a while after looking over the source code.......

No one can say they did not have a fair chance to get B+ , going on 12 hours after launch difficulty is still below 1 at .377 right now.

With the difficulty this low it is actually difficult to solo mine with a gpu !!

If you have not mined yet it is certainly not too late to start and you can solo mine vs. use of the merged pools , at least for a little while yet.

As difficulty rises the merged pools will be the way to go.

After all the entire idea behind the child coins of Blake Coin is to be able to mine multiple coins at the same time !!

This family has room to grow and runs a fast secure blockchain now which will grow over time as more join in mining and other coins are added.

A secure blockchain is probably the most important aspect of any coin (or family of coins) if it is ever going to offer value & trust.

As the developer of Photon I am happy to be part of the project and suggest anyone with long term vision check it out when you can.

I would just like to point out that if my calculations are correct, the issue with the initial difficulty adjustment has caused about 15% of the total coin supply to be mined within the first day (~65,000 blocks in ~24hr). In terms of time dilation, that would be 113 days of mining (at the expected average rate of 2.5 minutes per block) compressed into 1 day. Is this an accurate calculation?

at least the pool is getting more coins now but there is still no convergence with diff vs block time/production yet so may still be a few more days of unrealistic low diff imho, each diff step is the max 400% as per wallet code so until a balance is achieved its open public low diff mining on pool or solo whatever works best for you

I got news back from Bryce about Dirac and that should be ready for merge on weekend it is using kgw so fingers crossed should not have same issue

FYI HERE IS MY PERSONAL WINDOWS QT BUILD OF BLAKE BITCOIN OR B+ AS SOME ARE CALLING IT

http://www.mediafire.com/download/c9ltozjp1jp40es/b_plus_from_cinnamon_win_qt_BLAKE__BITCOIN.7z

Like the original wallet release it shows false positives on the website virus total however only 2....

I would like to point out that even if you compile your own wallets unless you really look over the code do you really know what you are compiling ?

I am not going to teach anyone how but a few lines of code added to some c++ can make it do all sorts of terrible things.....

Terrible things that might not show up on virus total or other scanners if that code has never been tagged as malware in the wild.

So while virus total and other scanning sites are useful tools to help prevent problems the integrity of the person who built the wallet is important too.

I see other coins released with things like 'bounty for mac wallet' ..... my position is this; sorry I don't support mac wallets right now.

If you want one build it for yourself be my guest but unless I built it myself I will not ever call it an official wallet of a project I am running.

Anyone who allows 'strangers' or people with no reputation to build thier wallets is taking a chance even if it comes up clean on virus total.

I don't want to alarm anyone. I just want to point out that all virus scanning software including websites like virus total are just layers of protection.

Running things inside a virtual machine is always best if you can.

Now enough of me hijacking this thread about security ect......

I would say that Blake Bitcoin aka B+ has certainly reached escape velocity from it's launch and you are all welcome to mine Blake Coin, Photon and B+ with me ALL AT THE SAME TIME WITH THE SAME HASH POWER in the NY pool ....... http://ny2.blakecoin.com/index.php

Blake 256 cannot be mined with asic's that are for sha 256d

you can use a cpu

https://github.com/BlueDragon747/cpuminer http://blakecoin.org/Blakecoin_Minerd.7z (not recommended) settings for ny merge pool example

minerd --url stratum+tcp://ny2.blakecoin.com:3334 --userpass username:password -t 4 -a blake -s 1

would run 4 cores.......

use a gpu https://github.com/kR105/cgminer-alt

http://www.blakecoin.org/cgminer-alt-pool-photon1.7z

sample conf file.....

{
"pools" : [
   {
   "url" : "stratum+tcp://ny2.blakecoin.com:3334",
   "user" : "your user name in the pooll",
   "pass" : "pool password"

"vectors" : "1",
"hotplug" : "0"
"no-submit-stale": true,
"kernel-path" : "/"
"rpcport" : "8984"
}

for best performance on gpu i recommend low memory and high engine clock speed, (use bitcoin similar settings for your card not litecoin settings)

if you have fpga boards see this brilliant work here

https://github.com/kramble/FPGA-Blakecoin-Miner and check the Blake Coin thread for how to reprogram/configure.....

No asic's exist to mine blake 256 ......yet..... they would be possible to construct ......

I am mining in the new york merged pool , Blake Coin , Photon and BlakeBitcoin all at the same time ...... other coins are in development that will be merge mined also...... in the near future.....

As has been said, you can currently mine with CPU, GPU or FGPA. The difficulty is now such that it probably rules out CPU now or in the very near future. I know little of FGPA's other than that they are more power efficient than GPU's, I suspect they probably need a lot more time/knowledge to set up too?

If you want to build a GPU rig, there is an excellent guide here; http://www.cryptobadger.com/build-your-own-litecoin-mining-rig/ (http://www.cryptobadger.com/build-your-own-litecoin-mining-rig/). I built a GPU rig following this guide with 2xRadeon R9 290's and 1xRadeon R9 270X. Currently mining B+ solo, the 290's are doing 3.2GH/s each and the 270X half that.

this link is exactly what I was looking for, thank you very much. I'll be sure to throw some of my first mined coins your way as a thank you for directing me in the right place.

complete gpu mining rigs are pretty cheap right now on the used market. You may want to look into purchasing one as it should be significantly cheaper than building one new. just a thought, obviously standard disclaimers apply buying used anything.

If your blakebitcoin.conf is like the reference in OP

Code:

listen=1
maxconnections=180
rpctimeout=30
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=243
rpcuser=youruser
rpcpassword=yourpass
addnode=146.185.135.24
addnode=162.243.14.130
addnode=188.226.213.85
addnode=107.170.140.27

Then for solo your cgminer.conf will look like this

Code:

{
"pools" : [
	{
		"url" : "127.0.0.1:243",
		"user" : "youruser",
		"pass" : "yourpass"
	}
],

"intensity" : "9",
"auto-gpu" : true,
"expiry" : "120",
"failover-only" : true,
"gpu-threads" : "2",
"log" : "5",
"no-restart" : true,
"queue" : "3",
"scan-time" : "30",
"worksize" : "128",
"temp-hysteresis" : "4",
"blake256" : true,
"vectors" : "1",
"no-submit-stale": false,
"kernel-path" : "/"
}

Hope that helps 8)

Edit:
you can tweak the expiry and scan-time lower for solo as you will have less latency between the miner and your wallet compared with a pool, just remember to set them back before going back to pool mining as you will get more issues

Wow, the diff is up there. Must be some serious mining going on. Any news on when it'll be added to an exchange?

can we make our own dirac wallet from the source before actual launch?

Quote from: blah01 on May 16, 2014, 04:30:02 AM

I dont think that would be possible as soon as the wallet code is released you can start mining so would end in a premine if you released code before the launch, Dirac uses kgw so it will not have same issue as B+

When Dirac launches is it going to be added automatically to the merged pool? No need to re-start the miner and it's going to be mined from the get-go?

(merge mining FTW)

yeah will be added as soon as Bryce sends me code/wallet there will be a small ~30 mins or less interruption while I enable it but thats it no change to the miner apart from more coins

thanks. I didn't have any issues with B+

do we happen to know when dirac will release this weekend? I want to get right on it but im going to be afk for half the weekend. sorry to sort of skew the subject slightly. i promise no more dirac questions in this thread lol

no news from Bryce about release yet, and if you are not about you will still get a share of what the pool finds

Dirac dev on twitter: https://twitter.com/BryceWeiner

on the merge pool im trying to do a manual payment to B+ and it shows i have a payment address inputed, it shows my address under the payout but when i try to submit it says "you have no payout address set." Not sure if this is a bug or if you have manual payments disabled or something but you asked for bug reports.

Quote from: blah01 on May 16, 2014, 07:29:40 PM

using chrome here and it is working might be a bug will look into it, manual payouts are risky for me to allow I have changed the code to avoid a double payout on old pool code where a bad user could fool the system into doing a AP+MP payout while DDoSing but I think it should be patched for that now although any issue will disable manual payouts again to avoid having to fund the pool with my personal coins, if you could tell me which browser you using and double check after refreshing page that would be great, sometimes there is a small bug with tokens just refresh and try again

Thanks for reporting 8)

are my eyes deceiving me or do you play cs 1.6 bluedragon? I was just looking at the blakecoin website

Quote from: blah01 on May 16, 2014, 08:37:07 PM

Thanks to the work by Ignatius, Blakecoin does have a custom CS 1.6 server online where you can play and use BLC within the game and I think this is absolutely awesome ;D

Read More Here
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=594741.0

I have played many games most the common FPS games CS&CSS/VC&VC2/OFP&ARMA/BF2&BF2142&BF3 and also a few MMOs GUNZ/WolfTeam/3Kingdoms/Legend Of The Three Kindoms/DriftCity/PathOfExile also many RPG games like Fallout1&2/Diablo1&2/Baldur's Gate/Sacred1&2 and the list goes on and on but listed most of my main favorites over the years

I enjoy playing in virtual worlds but I was not able to find the combination of feature that I thought could be done with a free to play model that's why I got into indie game development

I put a small team together back in mid 2011 to built a platform for MMO games that could support the size of world and features we thought were great, it has been quite hard and most of us also work but we have finished the main framework for the server side and tested it.

work is now being done on the first two games one is a FPS and other is RPG all 40K users per zone and each game title can have many zones that make the whole world with additional zones being added continuously.

When working on the financial system for the prototypes I thought it would be a great idea to use a blockchain for the storage rather than a database and you could mine the coins and play at same time this lead to the work on Blakecoin as long I did any extra work needed for it :D

Blakecoin was born about 4 months later "Its Alive Muhahaha" after quite a bit of benchmark and research on many algorithms(all the sha-3 candidates and a few others) and testing of the idea of mining and playing an at same time, Blake-256 was the best as it uses very few resources and was really fast 8)

The work on the first game (FPS) is still ongoing Blakecoin has taken some of my time away but overall very happy and excited with the progress we are quite close to releasing information with videos of the game play, images and fly-through trailers before the crowd funding for the closed/open beta's

The game does have special premium items and a micro-transaction system based in Blakecoin

I need to dig my steam account out and get into the CS 1.6 server and get me some BLC "Boom HeadShot Muhaha" just not had the time yet been pretty busy with work and the merge mine stuff plus still trying to fit time in on game dev and schedules can clash with my team mates on that :-[

really could not think of anything I would prefer to be doing than building technology systems and games it is a passion or love I really enjoy it *apart from the bugs or expensive licence fees (some game dev stuff is expensive)

Now with the merge mining it allows me to work with more developers and bring even better value to everyone's mining hardware which I think is cool ;D

The mining pools for the MMO games will be merge mine you can be 100% sure of that :P

Why pay to play a game when you can play them for free
Why mine or play a game when you can do them both
Why mine one coin when you can mine them all
Why fight between each other when you can work together and have some fun in the process
Why use a slow inefficient algorithm when you can use a fast efficient one

Nice to see somebody with passion for what they do! Nice work Blue!

Any info on Dirac coin? Isn't it supposed to launch today. Am already merge mining on the pool - will I need to do anything on my side? Thanks,

No info from the dev about Dirac I may need to chase him up on it as the pools are ready to go :D

no changes needed on the miners side just waiting on the wallet really :-\

Ive been mining for about 6 or 7 months now and mined Blakecoin when it was released. Have never mined with a better algorithm since and have just been waiting for it to catch on as it dominates the 2nd or 3rd gen. mining algos. Its simple, to use, minimal tuning, lower temps and fan speeds and fast. I do believe with the introduction of merge mining along with this great algorithm that this should be the next movement of the interested masses. I do and will own every coin this team presents.

oh and the cs 1.6 question. I strictly played that game, never anything else. Tribes maybe before but i am not a traditional online gamer. I do wreck shop though. I may have to break out some parts lying around and get a 1.6 box up to check out the server. (really just using it as an excuse to do so :)

I think there is a problem whitdrawing BlakeBitcoin from the Merge Pool eu3.blakecoin.com. Automatic and Manual whitdraw don't process.

On the other hand BlakeCoin and Photon whitdrawals work fine.

Wish Steam offered 1.6 separate for like 2.99 or something. Already have CSS and Global Offensive. It's a cool idea anyway.

Still dealing with some DDoS issues against EU3 and NY2 fixing it now

Edit:
Ok try now both servers should be good

Difficulty now 6179 8)

Hey Blue,
Having some issues with auto payout for B+ on NY2. Doesn't look like it was processed by the pool. There is no tx #. ID for the payout is 114251. Subsequent payouts went through though.

Why isn't this coin gaining any traction? You would think it's quite appealing, but I guess not...

it's only been a few days and the blake network hash rate has really gone up steady since it's release,

my node has lots of peers connected,

let's give it some time,

a few weeks or a few months,

patience is something that most (not saying you in particular) lack in the forums here no matter what is discussed.......

dude these guys are pumpin right now. Their merge mining combined with the really good blake256 algo is going to be, i think, a natural progression for at least the mining community. The algo is best out and being able to mine multiple coins at the same time is great for the coins and for the miners. The dev has been adding pools and talking with outside devs that want to bring in coins. Dont hate, sign up and enjoy the ride.

I'm not saying you're the one to do it, but if you, the main dev don't do anything it looks like a forgotten dead swamp. Since my technical lingo is very limited (just a user), I'm left to basically word of mouth type of advertising, which is not enough. Also an established name helps a lot, which also isn't me.

Just the fact that this thread has 10 pages doesn't inspire that much confidence to outsiders. For me this changes when I see voices like cinnamon, etc.

I have tried doing advertising for Blakecoin it is very time consuming and most of the coins are held by the community and not the developers

if this coin cannot survive when its merge mined and has an active dev doing dev work then it just goes to show how messed up the crypto coin community is :-\

I know, I'm reading the BlakeCoin thread regularly and see how active you are plus the fact that blake (coins) technical side isn't shaby either (au contraire) - makes me wonder if with time people will realize the potential...

The block crawler doesn't seem to work for me either. Looking forward to further dev for this coin. will try to help out when I can.

Is the Blakebitcoin wallet working. im getting a no block source available. ?

Block crawler seems to have been hammered again.....

I will try to rebuild it tonight and have a few tweaks to the python that i was going to add anyway....

Should be up later on .... hopefully.... sorry ....

The block crawler doesn't seem to work for me either. Looking forward to further dev for this coin. will try to help out when I can.

yep BlakeBitcoin is working fine here

make sure you add nodes to your conf as per OP

check your firewall can always add port= in conf to set to an open port

e.g

Code:

listen=1
maxconnections=180
rpctimeout=30
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=243
port= (set to an open port on your firewall)
rpcuser=youruser
rpcpassword=yourpass
addnode=146.185.135.24
addnode=162.243.14.130
addnode=188.226.213.85
addnode=107.170.140.27

can also add them in console with

Code:

 
addnode 146.185.135.24 add
addnode 162.243.14.130 add
addnode 188.226.213.85 add
addnode 107.170.140.27 add

Ok /

Thank You

Note on Pools:
ELT balance will be paid once they pass 480 maturity slight bug that it will show cleared sooner due to main chain of 140 I am working on a patch, just a heads up on that issue

Mining Rig Rentals is the first (to my knowledge) rig rental site to support Blake-256!

Renters:

Make rental choices based on "actual" hash rate. Their system tracks the past 24 hour hash rate with a moving average.
Backup pools! Have you ever found yourself trying to be ready for a coin launch only to find out your first pool choice isn't up and running? Their system takes care of that, by letting you set up 5 pools in a fail over.
Backup pools! Have you ever found yourself trying to be ready for a coin launch only to find out your first pool choice isn't up and running? Their system takes care of that, by letting you set up 5 pools in a fail over.

Rig owners:

Website pool manager. Their system allows you to change what pool your miner is connected to right from the website. Allows 5 pools to be configured with fail over.
Hash rate graphs!
Algorithm choices include: Scrypt, Scrypt-N, x11, SHA-256, SHA3, and now Blake-256!
There is no fee to use the site/service for the miner controls or hash rate graphs. You never have to list your rig for rent if you don't want to.

Not sure about the whole "renting thing?" No problem, it's 100% free to list your rig with their service and the backup pools/hashrate graphs are completely on the house. If you decide to try leasing your rig in the future, you will already be setup.

They have lots of website/interface improvements in the pipeline, with a very active development team.

Any plans for more exchanges? I can't stand AtomicTrade.....

So tell us (please be specific) what exchanges you do like and the reasons you like them ?

What features and benefits do they offer ?

I would also like to hear why you dislike Atomic Trade.

Please detail the specific reasons you 'can't stand' them.

Educate us.

Finally, instead of asking coin developers what 'their' plans are , if you are holder in the coin..... what are your plans ?

For any coin , right up to bitcoin it is nothing without people who mine it and place trust in it.

Once any coin has enough support every exchange will add it since there is true demand from many people to purchase it.

These are the qualities that provide any true value.

Coin developers who bribe exchanges and buy and sell the same few coins to two of their own accounts all day on those exchanges to create the perception that something is actually going on are usually out to screw the people who mined their coin.

I have seen it happen so many times I lost count.

Finally, maybe you would not mind sharing with us if your plans are to purchase this coin or to sell coins you own.

I can't wait to hear the answers.

AtomicTrade is better than nothing in my opinion, but it's a small exchange that's not well known. Bittrex and Poloniex are sort of medium exchanges that still do a lot of volume. They both seem to be much quicker to pick up new coins that MintPal and Cryptsy, but are still well known and trusted enough that large volumes of transactions can occur there. Also for those who use online Portfolio's to keep track of their coins, AtomicTrade isn't tied in to most of those services making it very difficult to see how our investment in PoW is doing at a glance.

The 2 exchanges you mention certainly have more coins and volume than Atomic Trade but niether offer usd/btc

I would think that is an important thing for many people (it is available for verified accounts regular trade requires no verification)

I have nothing against the other two .... Bittrex does trade 3 of 5 coins in the Blake Ecosystem currently

As for Poliniex they are offering ipo coins before they are mined !!

That to me crosses the line a bit. It is there business and they can do as they please.

At least you have some logic behind your statement while the other person who made comments in a negative light on Atomic had no valid reason to do so.

I would like to see the coins in the Blake Ecosystem available on many exchanges for the sake of popularity.

Remember we are only 1 month into merged mining and not an entire month of all 5 coins.

This project is just in it's early stages. These things will come in time as more users demand /provide the trade volume necessary for other exchanges to list and keep the coins listed.

While I admire Bittrex for it's aggressive moves it has made lately it also is quick to delist coins that fail to meet minimum trade volume.

As a developer I would rather see my coin not listed at all then to be listed for a few weeks then taken out because 100 new coin launches took place since my coin was added. They are doing well with their business model and I think anything that can break the 'juice' that places like Mintpal and Cryptsy require to list a coin is a step in the right direction.

Please be patient. Also consider holding some of the coins in the Blake 256 family vs. exchanging them for btc !!

There are many long term projects in the works for the coins in the blake 256 ecosystem.

I personally have plans for Photon which I am just starting to put together and negotiate now.

I cannot promise when or what will be available but I designed Photon as it is to be impossible for people to manipulate the price of ....

I wanted a coin with enough to go around for everyone.

Design of a coin to 'build value' without building a world wide user supported and secure blockchain and some reall world applications is not true value.

It took bitcoin years to reach where it is at. Even litecoin is far far behind ...... these things may take time but may be rewarding in the end.

All feedback is appreciated when you state facts or reasons for your opinion.

I completely agree - in fact that's why I think we need more exchanges. Like it or not people get comfortable with their exchanges of choice and it can be a hard sell to get them to use an exchange they aren't familiar with and don't yet trust. And I haven't sold a single Blake - 256 coin I've mined yet! I'm in this for the long haul.

That said many people don't mine they only buy on exchanges, and exchanges are the ONLY places that provide a value for coins in the very early stages of their lives. As a miner/investor/trader I like to be able to track the value of what I have, and small exchanges like Atomic Trade are not included in the tools I have available for this (hopefully Atomic Trader will grow to the point where this is no longer the case, but in the mean time...).

Trying to compile from source from git repo and get the following error:

I've dealt with this once before with another coin by simply copying these files from another coin's source but would be interested in finding out why this happens.

you need the make file for level db

you can get it here if you don't have it

cd /leveldb

sudo make libleveldb.a libmemenv.a

then compile the coin as normal on linux

I've run into another issue I've run into nowhere else.

When running blakebitcoind I get the following:

Error: Unable to bind to 0.0.0.0:356 on this computer (bind returned error 13, Permission denied)
Error: Failed to listen on any port. Use -listen=0 if you want this.

For giggles I try -listen=0 and get the following:

An error occurred while setting up the RPC port 243 for listening on IPv4: bind: Permission denied

Then get the unable to bind on 0.0.0.0:356 bind error above once again.

Quote from: BlueDragon747 on June 15, 2014, 01:46:28 PM

some systems have issues with low port numbers

I thought it is standard Unix style to reserve ports below 1024 for root. I know it doesn't really help with security (and there are ways to run a server as a user, after opening the port as a root), but why choose a low number for this coin, of all cryptocurrencies?

Actually, I don't really see this as a problem -- having to choose your port number before running the server might make you a little more aware of network issues. OTOH, is there any downside for the network when clients have lots of different ports, for example in discovering new nodes?

Here is an unofficial build of Blake bitcoin or b plus as I like to call it for Windows that has qr codes enabled

http://www.mediafire.com/download/r5dge7ug5kascfi/B_plus_win_qt_with_qr_code_support_.7z

If you want to build you own the details are in the Photon forum at cryptocointalk.com in the blake 256 section.

I updated Photon earlier tonight to support qr codes then had a little go at a few other members of the family but it's late so enjoy !!

Guys,

No FUD and not trying to spread rumour, but can someone please check the Windows installer at the link on the OP?

Twice I have installed it, and twice Avast! is warning it's a virus. Twice I told Avast! to hush and now I will for the second time be rebuilding my Windows machine. Avast! was wrecked twice by whatever is in that file.

Just FYI.

Be good.

Quote from: ShitCoins-B-Gone on July 06, 2014, 10:52:13 AM

There is no windows installer?

Just a precompiled windows daemon and qt with needed dlls (use your own dlls if you want)

I compiled and used same dll as in my other release all clean, you can always compile from source!

post the warning message please it might give an insight into the problem

Indeed no installer , the wallet I recently posted uses only one dll (which i think you may need on win 7 not win 8 or further but if anyone can confirm I would appreciate it since I have limited win machines to test on ?)

We appreciate the feedback from everyone, if you have any legit issues post here and we will try to help.

Please show us a copy of the link you are downloading from and the log of your virus scanner.

I do not know if this is the case here. But some people take a signature from a known virus and post it to a coins blockchain. Look it up if you really want to know how. I'm not giveing a ninstructions manual on how to put grafitti on a coin.

virus checker then generates a false positive

Thank's! Learned something new.
Btw, it is working now, and found

107.170.123.55

in the peer list.

I'm going to post this only once on this thread, if this could be added to OP, that would be great.

The pool http://nomp.universalmolecule.co.ve is cracking blocks steadily and it supports anonymous merged mining of all the 6 coins in the blake eco.

Official pool thread is in https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=732864

Not going to post anything else as not to create spam.

Ok , bluedragon747 is quite busy developing something other than a coin for a few weeks and in the meanwhile I am going to keep BlakeBitcoin or B Plus as we call it updated. (also Blake Coin) at his request. These are not mandatory updates but recommended.

To do this I forked his repository and updated the code with a checkpoint, and a small fix to the code that fixes a little error in the rpc console that causes it to crash sometimes when running in non server mode.

Here is the new wallet for windows compiled with open ssl1.0.1h and qr support

https://docs.google.com/file/d/0Bz8503hoyr74VFo0Und4WmJKMWc/edit?pli=1

Here is the repository on github I forked from bluedragon747's original one which he will likely merge when he has time

https://github.com/photonproject/BlakeBitcoin

Finally here are the exact changes for the curious

https://github.com/photonproject/BlakeBitcoin/commit/f0f5d7686f371a83bde29924520d34689267f791

Note , I tested this client on windows 8, 8.1 and 7, windows 7 needs the dll file in the zip with the wallet, windows 8 seems to run it fine without.

Would like to hear feedback from others. Again this is a non mandatory update but since the coin has never been checkpointed I would strongly encourage anyone running a node to update to this and users also.

New wallet seems to be working fine here.

thanks for the feedback

fixed a couple of display bugs, changed the icon and updated the leveldb version 8)

can get the latest build form:
https://github.com/BlakeBitcoin/BlakeBitcoin/releases

may be a dumb question, but can i mine with an nvidia card? i noticed that the list of gpus on the main site are all amd...
btw, im cpu solo mining on the qt console, how can i see what hash rate im mining at? getinfo isnt showing my hash rate...

update: 10/27
got my GTX970 FTW this afternoon. been mining for the past 2 hours, underclocked 1177mhz, 59% power target, pulling 180w, hashing 1.85gh

Quote from: Shintax on October 26, 2014, 03:27:27 PM

yes you can mine on Nvidia with the fact this coin is merge mined I would not bother doing any CPU mining the difficulty is too high

Thanks to the efforts of Epsylon3/tpruvot, Blakecoin has been ported to ccMiner for use with Nvidia based GPU cards
https://github.com/tpruvot/ccminer

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=770064.msg9273277#msg9273277 *note that it supports both the 14 rounds Slow version of Blake256 and the Faster 8 rounds version used by BlakeBitcoin and others

I released a new version 0.8.9.3 with CoinControl
https://github.com/BlakeBitcoin/BlakeBitcoin/releases/tag/0.8.9.3

this is useful for people that either send large transactions or have a lot of small inputs which has been known to create sending issues "Transaction To Large", with coincontrol you can consolidate these inputs, set a custom change address, or lock inputs on an address if for some reason you dont want them to move from that address and I also added mininput again so you can define a set minimum input that gets used for creating transactions

often coincontrol is seen with PoS coins so you might see one of those joining the merge mine pools soon ;)

The reward will cut to 25 soon, I find it a little disrespectful that i get pm's from others asking me to visit the threads of their coins and I never ask anyone to visit threads of coins in the blake 256 system but we get almost no support from others.

I am not looking to buy fake bumps to the threads but obviously since our systems work so well I think the other coin devs and some others are concerned about the competition the merged blake 256 system has to offer and obviously do not want to support the system.

Just remember if bitcoin ever 'breaks' (hopefully never) or takes a left turn from what most people want and Namecoin cannot step up there are few alternatives.

Yes there are hundreds of alt coins but very few legit teams of people who have technology that is equal to or superior to bitcoin in several ways and a qualified team of developers who write code that works.

No scrypt 1024 coin is anything that can scale into the future say 20-30 years. Just on energy alone. I predict that in the distant future LTC ect... will change algorithms like the feathercoin team did recently.

Over the long term things are going to come down to energy costs, Satoshi predicted this in an old post stating eventually the cost of resources to produce bitcoin could be effected by it's production if it was adapted widely......

That could happen soon or could be happening now.

Remember none of the blake256 coins are /were premined that are included in our merged pools , those are Blake Coin, Photon, Blake Bitcoin , Universal Molocule, Electron and Lithium.

None are supported or 'backed' with fake buy pump orders from anyone who will pull out later and dump the coins.

The max money and block awards are very fair on the coins to allow everyone an opportunity to be involved.

You can mine with a gpu or fpga board. Asic's produced for blake 256 (not currently available) would be faster and use less power than those for bitcoin.

Since you are merge mining 6 coins at one time you are getting optimal use of resources.

There are REAL WORLD things in development to support the blake system. Several all discussed elsewhere I will not repeat them all now.

No fancy websites with a bunch of 'fake' things in development that never happen like i see with many other coins. Just reality.

Security of the blockchain is good since merged mining is attracting a decent amount of hash power.

Note this post was meant to appeal to serious people about the future of cryptocurrency , not those who expect to mine a coin and dump it for bitcoin next week. In 3-5 years or 10 years how many blockchains do you think will be running ? How many will be of high enough difficulty and codeed well enough to trust ?

If you mine I suggest you check out merge mining of blake coin and all the others.

If you do not mine for a very very small investment you can get a good piece of the future.

It is all up to you I am just laying it out there.

Very well put and thank you for all the efforts to make quality crypto.

Working on Win10 Build10049

win 10 looks like the worst ever, I hope I never use it based on what I have read so far.....

Still on Win7. Refusing to change lol

Odd I like it a lot more than 8 or 8.1. It feels a lot more like 7 with a less fancy looking UI. Runs well on a core 2 duo CPU and a old GPU

just to keep it on topic sort off...

https://hostr.co/file/970/AbMHzGIXsIdh/win10-BBTC.png

sounds as if the price will be right

Updated OP with latest nodes and info for exchange :)

cool

edit one , if anyone has extra b+ 2hBNmGmbS3v1E2yjqRcFsiYUM1eovunAmxh

IMPORTANT NOTE

The abe block crawler I have been running keeps getting 'stuck' every few days.

I am going to rebuild it as soon as possible but it will be off line until then.

It is currently almost useless since it can only look up older transactions up to about block 250k or so.

Will advise when complete.

What is it going to take to get this coin popular? We need an exchange or two that will list it. Any efforts in motion to do this?

My whole effort is to knock it down. I have ordered ddos services and pointed 500 gb/s to ur nodes, this should be enough to get the network busted by tomorrow.

With all the airdrops using the name Bitcoin, how is BlakeBitcoin not getting any attention? Not sure why BB was left out of a Cryptopia listing when listings were cheap. Really a missed opportunity here.

Dev seems to have disappeared asked, Recently he did not log, interested in this topic

Hi, I'm launching a new Exchange site, and I have added BBTC and all coins of blake ecosystem, because seem there is no exchange for BBTC and ELT.

c-patex.com

Please be careful. The site is still in Beta. Do not deposit/trade big amounts. :D

(I'm still working on few small bugs. If you receive a message of "account disabled" during sign up, just ignore it)

Cheers!

Quote from: MAGsistemas on November 12, 2017, 01:17:43 PM

I did retweet about the listing hopefully get a few testers 8)

thanks for showing some love to BBTC/ELT

explorer for BBTC is still syncing and due to length of ELT chain not started that yet but it is on my todo list

I'm curious, subscribed to the thread

Awesome Thank You 8)

Hi everybody. Some nodes to share? I'm only getting 1 :(

Quote from: MAGsistemas on November 12, 2017, 01:17:43 PM

Thanks for adding BlakeBitcoin. Will it remain listed after your exchange is out of beta?

How will you select which coins to list? Will you accept payment to list coins, or refuse it?

Thanks from the dev team (at least from me) and I am sure I speak for Blue Dragon for listing on
c-patex.com (http://c-patex.com)

I have completed a few minor updates to the code and compiled a new windows wallet.

Released on github just minutes ago here :
