Is this a Ninja-Launch ?

Going to wait on a few more opinions before building wallet.


Discord / Slak?

Website / Forum?

Whitepaper?

Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

CMakeFiles\CMakeTmp\CheckIncludeFile.c(1): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'pthread.h': No such file or directory

Is this file from boost or its included in source, I have dowloaded v1.4.4 from github

I see people already connected to the seed nodes, so don't miss out!


Please, use this forum to ask questions for now.

What does Brazuk means and why did you choose that name? The idea is interesting though an will bookmark for now. More Power dev!

wow... no windows wallet ?  Just a readme file from the forknote source code ...!

So many cryptonight algo coins these days, make something new.... or get everything prepared before release !

Download the source directly from the git repository (as per the instructions above).

You should be ok.

Try and tell me!

Hardmanic,

You need to run two processes running at the same time.

brazukcoind --> it syncs the blockchain

simplewallet --> it interacts with the other process 'brazukcoind'. Here is where you create your wallet, start mining coins, tranfer funds, etc.


ps.: Don't forget you paswords! Keep your seed info written on paper.

Good luck!

Cobonadu,

We understand your point, but we decided to put initial efforts in the backend, as we want an organic growth, instead of a flashy start.

Stay with us!

worst ANN of this year   >:(

If I understand what you mean, you don't want to download the blockchain, just use a remote node.

Try this:

./simplewallet --daemon-address 132.148.90.225:44043

Of course, you also should run your own full node, by following instructions above, so we can grow organically.

In the long run this coin will be worth what the market decides it is worth, so decentralizing the hashes is essential.

Hardmanic,


Can you tell an example, so I can help you?

If your talking about connecting to a pool, unfortunately we don't have one yet.

Any one volunteer?

yes, you have very little information about yourself and your project.
But this year is just beginning and many have another chance to be the worst.
and the guys can still have time to improve.

Oh well, I can't seem to find blocks mining mine own coin anymore. Who would have thought it would happen so quickly?  ;D

A great start so far guys!

We have secured 2 VPS servers for 2 years at least, so we'll have time to improve Brazukcoin!

Thanks for the support!

Hardmanic,

In order to do what you want se mede support from ccminer. I'll look info that.

Blink,

Sorry for the late reply. The name, you see, I'm Brazilian, so thats where Braz.. came from. The rest is mere wordplay.

Hello folks,


So, to let you know and stay motivated (and spread the word about brazuk), here is sort of a roadmap I'm working on right now:

- Create a pool (I'm getting another VPS server for this stuff. I'll have another one later for redundancy).. But then again, I'm planning load balance, and other important things in order to get 99.9% service uptime (or, as I like to call it: kind connection :)

Why a pool now you might ask? Well, also, because I need some money myself since you guys are getting all the block rewards!! ¬¬

- Get mining software working for the pool.

- Easy console and gui installers for the several cpu/OS platforms (Starting with the obvious ones: Windows, Mac, Android, Iphone, and Linux).

- Website (I already own brazukcoin.com and .org, but this effort will probably take some time, because first I think we don't actually need a website to get this coin going, second I'm not a graphical designer, so I'll probably have to pay someone to do it).


and More...

I need suggestions from you!



Tchau!

Not a miner, but am waiting patiently for this to be listed on an exchange so that I may purchase some :).  Good Luck Dev!

chinakatana,

Thanks so much!

Information about this pool put in the first post.

Let's go!

 ;)

Hardmanic,


That's what you need I suppose.

Try and give feedback please.

Thanks to chinakatana!

Nice work on the pools :D

katorisenko,

Many thanks!


First post updated with info!

How do you find out your hash rate on solo mining?

What pool would I use for a 32 core CPU?

In what way you guarantee the anonymity? For example, about LyckyToken: despite the fact that the blockchain is an open database, it only shows the
numbers of electronic wallets. Personal data is not required.

SaniaNET,


Thanks very much for the Windows binaries!
This is much needed as the huge majority of users out there use Windows. So now they can jump in!


Notice that I put them in the [ANN] post with the 'unofficial warning [This is just a 'save my ass' statement  ;D ]


Keep them coming!

Zembon,


Windows 32 and 64 bit binaries, kindly provided by SaniaNET.

Check the [ANN] first post.

Or get here: https://ulozto.net/!K8BlUJr8e9qm/brazukcoin-zip (https://ulozto.net/!K8BlUJr8e9qm/brazukcoin-zip)

What about the team members, are they also anonymous?

JuliaEnnyPen,


Brazuk was built following the CryptoNote technology, precisely for its anonymity features.

This is the best starting point to learn about it -> https://cryptonote.org/ (https://cryptonote.org/)



ps.: Notice though that full anonymity is almost impossible to reach nowadays, as described by the eff team here https://www.eff.org/issues/privacy (https://www.eff.org/issues/privacy), but I think that's beside the point of this coin.

ab777,


Thank you!


Thanks to chinakatana and katorisenko for the pools!

btw we need more to avoid network concentration.

what's the difference and new technology brazuk have comparing to many other cryptonight based coins? ::)

I guess you need to read the white paper carefully or ask specific questions or ask the author to give you an example of the image

RiseCookie,


I''ll let be known I'm a Brazilian. That's where the Braz.. in Brazuk came about, btw.

Other than that I'd rather stay anonymous, like the coin.

I think only time can prove I'll stay true to this project. Which I will!

I suggest you stay around!

ab777,

We have these pools. Check them out and tell us your experience!

http://bzk.hpool.net (http://bzk.hpool.net) and http://bzcpool.us.to (http://bzcpool.us.to)

More info inf the [ANN] post in the first page.


Regarding checking solo hashrate, I put this in my to-do list!


Regards!

hello dev ,any roadmap for long time going this project ,or just have fun in short time

jc2992,

Thanks for the kind words!

Get a wallet to help strengthen network though!


btw guys we need to get on the exchanges. help with that please!

wbk940122,


In the medium term, to make Brazukcoin as accessible and easy to use as possible.


In the long term, I would like to help answer questions I have like: can crypto scale to a supposedly infinite size? And how far can it go?

Can we get nano-transactions with trillions of people using it massively?

Can crypto be really completely resistant to any form of tyranny, or rogue elements?

These and other points can get very philosophical.



One thing you can get assured is that I'll be around for a long time.


btw, I already paid 2 years of VPS servers, so I'd have no place to go anyway.

an excellent name for the project, of course, very sonorous and memorable.
but there is almost no information about you, where you can see the team in the faces?

How is this any better than DeepOnion or Monero?

Seryvolk,

Thank you! To be honest now I think Brazuk a little bit too rough sounding name, but whatever... no turning back!


About faces... You are not the first to ask about me. I was confused at first, but I now think I can understand the concern, given the amount of resources (hardware, personal) you might invest in a new still unknown altcoin.

People don't want to waste time and resources.

Well, faces... here we go: https://c.gmx.com/brazukcoin@gmx.com/EyX6M8MmQAiA07Z1V9CYzw

Other than that you can know I'm Brazilian, from Rio, politically lean libertarian, and work in the IT network field.


You can trust in me  ;D



Tchau!

Did a wallet transfer, appeared in 2 seconds to another wallet :D

Anyone interested in selling me some brazuk?

Where are you from? Just want to ask what Brazuk means?

I was mining about 3 hours with 5kh/s hashrate. There were found several blocks in this period
Can you tell me - why I didn`t get anything?
https://image.prntscr.com/image/3gGaFN6vQEeVlLHcBKpjAw.png

another shitcoin, where the "developers" are not able even to compile wallets for everyone ... Where is the Whitelist? plans to enter the stock exchanges?

"Brazukcoin - true anonymous currency"

How is it anonymous?

well , the mother of this coins is also a truly anonymous coin that is already used at marketplaces (XMR ) ,
looks as easy to do for new members to crypto , i am mining it , already difficult to mine
welldone dev

I had 9 BZK pending in this pool, I only need 1 BZK more to have the payout but I migrate my HashRate to the other, because i was the only miner.

And now, I haven't any BZK pending, (not found)... The pool eat my 9 BZK...

I dont say its a scam pool... maybe it's a bug... but I never use this pool again and advice all miner of the "issue".

This coin is the second new coin created by the XMR team? Or belong to the XMR fork out of the coin?

WOW, you are very fast  ;D

PM you. Sorry if I have rushed a bit, I just woke up.

Thanks.

10 BZK transaction received.

Good Morning  ;D

pool all normal.
Settlement time is not determined by the pool, depending on the blockchain mining speed
maybe 30 minutes, maybe 2 days, which requires self observation, i hope you can understand.
the pool will pay for any coins that belong to you

Enjoy!

Hallo Dev, I am very interested in this project. It was explained that Brazukcoin is based on the time tested blockchain technology, and also has extreme privacy features in its Cryptonote algorithm. Looks like it's very nice. But is there a 100% profit guarantee? Or is there a risk too? Good luck

katorisenko,



Information added to the [ANN] post!


Thanks so much!

voteformeg,


Thanks for the support!

Please, help spread the word about brazuk!








TonyGaruda88,


Thanks for the interest.

Regarding your question about 'risks and profit', we have both guaranteed.  ;D

Jump on board!

The dev seems dedicated to this coin and the network h/s is already fairly high. I will keep my eye on this one and mine for a bit.

what is "special function" of this coin?

simplewallet dont create my account. after type the name..close alone.

pd, i think i got it!
pd2, nop



pd3, done i have my account.  ;D

Looks interesting. Started mining with the wallet. Is there any 3rd party miner that can be used to improve the hashrate? Plans to enter exchanges?

Good luck dev!

Is there any available for solo mining? I want to try solo first with the low hash rate

Honestly this vision is amazing, I think the cyrpto world really needs a lot of anonymous currency but you really need to provide more information here, I think the only thing that's attracting a lot of people on this thread is the mining difficulty, and I do applaud you for trying to make mining as easy as possible and reducing fees but you really have a lot of work to do on this project, you need to release a website, a whitepaper, a roadmap. I know you're just a one man dev but if you're planning to move this project forward I think you should work on the website first, I think that will help give people an information on what this project is all about and where you're planning to go with this cryptocurrency.

Hi there, do you have any support of the Brazukcoin? And how can I contact?

may i answer you this project is just one clone of xmr?

Do I need to open up the following port on my firewall when setting up a full node?

P2P Port: 44044

Hi folks!


We now have a subreddit dedicated to talk about things related to Brazukcoin.

Please, be sure to subscribe! I'll be around there as well.   https://www.reddit.com/r/Brazukcoin (https://www.reddit.com/r/Brazukcoin)


I would like thank reddit user https://www.reddit.com/user/Morganisaurus_Rex (https://www.reddit.com/user/Morganisaurus_Rex) for this important step!



Folks, get us started in other social circles. Let me know and I'll jump in to help.

anchovy99,


It depends, but usually you need some simple configuration to do.

These are good sources:

If you have a computer running 24/7 I ask you to run one, please.

baramagba,


You can contact me here in this forum.

Also, now we have a new subreddit!

https://www.reddit.com/r/Brazukcoin


Please, subscribe there as well!

Got me some Brazukcoin.. Don't even know why  :P  :P We'll see where this one goes.

Please! Provide with more detailed information!

katorisenko,


Yes, It has been quite an unexpected ride so far! To be honest I never had the time to accumulate BZK myself, so fast the difficulty has risen!


But now we have to seize the moment to keep going up.

Next target is to put Brazuk on exchanges!


I've been perusing and found this thread from Cryptopia: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1674315.0

I like them!  ;D


So they require these information to get us listed:


- A 110px by 110px copy of the coin logo

- Coin Name:

- Coin Ticker:

- Algorithm:

- Network:

- Block Time:

- Block Reward:

- Difficulty Retarget:

- Total Coins:

- Annual PoS Rate:

- Minimum Stake Age:

- Maximum Stake Age:

- Website:

- Explorer:

- Source Code:

- Launch Forum:

- Cryptopia Forum:

- Windows Wallet:

- Linux Wallet:

- Mac Wallet:

- Mobile Wallet:

- Web/Paper Wallet:

- Premine:



Ok, we have most of the base covered!

I'll start working now on the following missing requirements:


A 110px by 110px copy of the coin logo

Website:

Cryptopia Forum:

Linux Wallet:

Mac Wallet:

Mobile Wallet:




These are all fairly easy for me to do (I think), except website, so please help out with that!

I'll eventually provide official resources on all these, but we need to get on the exchanges now.



Let's go!  ;)

They also require about 10 BTC if I'm not mistaken - stocks.exchange are far cheaper

You can also try coinsmarkets.com - they are usually more receptive towards listing more coins with minimal requirements.

they don't accept cryptonote coins

Are you sure?
I cant find that info anywhere. 10 btc to be listed would too high a barrier. It would make no sense economically.





That would make no sense either. That would be working against the very business they want to serve.


Don't worry!

We'll be fine!  ;)

Nice one!

According to their FAQ [https://coinmarketcap.com/faq/ (https://coinmarketcap.com/faq/)], among other requirements, you need to listed on a exchange, with some market volume.

So exchange first, then things go easier!

katorisenko,


Great! 


You've been one of the people helping the advance of Brazuk.

Do a website now, so I can have another opportunity to thank you!    ;D

Hello folks,


Now Brazukcoin has a logo.


Check it out!


https://c.gmx.com/brazukcoin@gmx.com/oRBWu4n8S26kzdJIiazjtw



Please spread the word about Brazukcoin!



Thank you!

I wanna buy some Brazukcoin before it hits exchange. How many can I get for $10usd? I'd prefer to use Paypal but I can trade for STORJ if necessary

Both things I said are true.. Cryptopia charge a lot of money to be listed and a lot of exchanges simply don't deal with cryptonote coins. Do research then wink.

Nice!

You might want to investigate this exchange https://stocks.exchange/  This exchange is small, but may be easier to get BZK listed. It doesn't hurt to contact them and ask. I find the following discussion about it https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2650108.0

katorisenko,


Well welll, that was fast!

Amazing job katorisenko, thank you so much!

So, what we do now, you ask?! We keep on sailing, swiftly and easy... heading for the Moon!  ;D




Ok, I created accounts on twitter, discord, facebook, and slack. And we have the subreddit.

I'll now start working on updating information about Brazuk, and get the social thing going (I want you there, please).

Also I will start working no getting binaries for Mac and Mobile. I already have done it for Linux, and will update info soon.


Then we can start asking Brazuk to be listed on all exchanges available.





ps.: btw, I need to ask another help from you guys!


As absurd as it sounds, I never had the chance to mine BZK myself, so fast the mining difficulty has risen (but then again, I was never a miner, so I don't have mining hardware).

I didn't pre-mine bzk because I thought I'd have time to accumulate some, before it getting noticed... I was so wrong!  ::)

So for those rich on BZK out there, please consider sharing a few coins donating to this embarrassingly poor dev?

BZK address: br3PtmG2Rcs83MEv3hUcW255jg6if4oTh7QHaqV3df55jFhEr6upnAyA64rxe5nBCXKYHT7RBE35f1W zGN42LWyp1nw58HUaY







Now back to work!

Thank you!

I also want to buy some coins - like the dev, I dont have much mining hardware anyway so PM me with your offers... :)

huuu i want also... i mine with CPU mining, 200H/s only  ;D ;D

this is what stock exchange said

The Stocks.Exchange coin listing price is 0.2 BTC.
The following is the official procedure to add new coins to stocks.exchange.

1. Send us detailed information about your coin or token (Links to website, source code, block explorer, etc.)
2. Let us know which trading pair(s) you wish to have, i.e. BTC, ETH, or NXT.
3. We will begin adding your coin.
4. Once your coin has been listed, you have to go to your stocks.exchange profile and make 5 deposits and 1 withdrawal. This allows us to test our daemon.
(To make this test you have to go to Profile -> Wallets (Manage) -> Find your coin -> Deposit -> Deposit Adress)
5. When you have successfully finished testing, let us know that you're done.
6. At this point, you will make the payment, and send us the transaction's hash.
7. Finally, when everything has been done and the transaction has confirmed, we will create your pair.
8. Enjoy trading on Stocks.Exchange!

Please note: there has to be at least $1000 in trading volume for your coin or token per day.

Here are some nice features that would be amazing to see in this coin's roadmap:

Tor integration;
OBFS4 Bridge Support;
Ring Signatures (or some other technique to make it truly untraceble);
Stealth Addresses;

Um grande salve.

billswk,


Thanks for the tips!

That kind of stuff is what I actually like about, but now I need to get Brazuks social media presence established.

I put this in my to-do list!

More anonymous than Monero? Because if it is - its a very great announcement and your project will be moon soon :)

rulez,


I would think letting coins in and profiting from their trading is a better business approach.. oh well!   ::)

But let that not discourage us!

There are people already asking for bzk, so there's market demand. So we must provide this service as well.

We need to get in!


 ;D

It's a shame that there is no pre-mine for this project. That could have attracted a lot of users to it.

ainsleyfran,


That could have been an option, but that is in the past now.


But hey, there's still plenty of opportunities in Brazukcoin, so be sure to get your wallet!

The coin is still in its infancy so there's still time before it hits the exchanges.



Good luck!

i want to know about the roadmap, dev.

me2. Also I like to know the difference between Brazukcoin and other anonymous coins.

afkarafian and anchovy99,


These are fair questions.

I'll answer you in a couple hours as I'll be writing this right now (among other things).

i will wait dev, beside that im still mining using CPU with very low hashrate, only 185-225 H/s  ;D ;D ;D ;D

afkarafian,


Good to know!

Keep going!    ;D



btw, if you have hardware sparing, mine even if only to help the network.

Miners also have an essential role in transaction validation.

You can mine and still not exaust your hardware by using one cpu thread, for example:


> start_mining 1

What are your benefits in comparison with Monero?

Hi dev, do you have a roadmap fpr the next 6 months? exchange, e-commerce, web wallet,etc..

if miners knows a lot , be sure sure we can attrack more people. I have also a question that, what is the exact time of each blocks? 3 minutes or 4 minutes?

But it seems that, the pools open the blocks very slow, which is unprofitable at the  moment. Maybe you need the implement latest zawy algo for to quick adjust and
correct block times?

good luck..

Hello folks!


We have a new version of Brazukcoin v.1.0.1.

Nothing fancy, but still an important security checkpoint added.

tigerjack and keepboxm,


Thanks for the good wishes!

Be sure to get a wallet and stay around so you don't miss out the ride!


So, I'm going to release a very ambitious roadmap soon (in a few hours). I had some feedback from the community, and also have my own ideas.

It's not my style to create unnecessary suspense, so let it be known that my main concerns with bzk are accessibility, easy of use, and privacy.

Also, in my experience, the most important thing in life is credibility. You gotta provide a stable and trustworthy service, otherwise even the most flashy products will fail in the long run.

So when someone uses hardware, time and other resources to invest in bzk, he or she must be sure they won't lose their money because of some lousy wallet, or server, etc.

solo mining get reward?
im joining the pool, dev.

In my opinion, the first step to stablish a good comunity around this project is to create a solid and ambitious roadmap, and it has to be better than what we already have out there.

The best anonymous coins nowdays are the spectrecoin (XSPEC) and DeepOnion (ONION). And as you can see, their marketcap has exploded recently.

I'm not an expert, but I think that getting the best features of both of them and adding in into one coin would be awesome! Here's an example: DeepOnion doest have OBFS4 Bridge Support and Spectrecoin does't allow you to send anonymous messages, what if we could do both?

Why do I think ONION and XPEC are the best? Because together, they have the key features that prople need in an anonymous ecosistem:

1) Comunciation
2) True anonymous, fast and cheap transactions.

Thanks.

Why no discord and why 60 blocks before verification?

hi people

How to setup solo minimg via brazukcoind & external GPU miner?

Hello folks!


So I've writing this great roadmap, and got caught carried away. So away that could not finish it yet.

Instead of releasing a half-assed job, I prefer to release it tomorrow when it's complete.



See you later!   ;)

How is that exactly?  Giant pre-mines generally dissuade people.  If there is no pre-mine it somewhat eases fears that the dev is just trying to get rich

Wow dev it seems like you're really dedicated to this project, there isn't a day that you haven't updated us on what's been happening with the development of the coin, kudos to your for being this active in the community, I really hope this will not change when this project will get more recognition. It's great to read that you're working on the roadmap, I really can't wait to read it and see what's in store for this project in the months to come. So after releasing the roadmap, what's next? Are you going to release the website or the whitepaper anytime soon? And out of curiosity I just want to ask, are you the only one working on this project? Or you have a team with you working on the development of this project? Btw dev I just want to congratulate you for the progress you've made so far, you're really doing great so far, keep up the good work!

Hello folks,

So I couldn't get to sleep without keeping my promise to release some form manifesto, whitepaper, or roadmap, regarding Brazukcoin.

Although not complete (I erased 70% of the text so not to abuse you with my gibbering), yet my thoughts below can be seen as the founding principles that will guide Brazuk.




-------------

Brazukcoin, and the road ahead.


"In a world of increasing threats to liberty, Brazukcoin brings a new front of resistance in the form of financial freedom.

Brazukcoin is based on the time tested blockchain technology, and also has extreme privacy features in its Cryptonote algorithm.

The code is (and will always remain) free and open-source!"



In the announcement of Brazukcoin, a few words stand out: "Threats to liberty", "new front of resistance", "financial freedom".


They are important as they hint at our priorities, and tell what next steps we see as natural for this new cryptocurrency in order to help us reach those goals of Freedom!


As long as humans have strolled through this planet, a common story seems to repeat itself: Whenever humans came together, though never completely peacefully, yet free enough to trade goods and services voluntariously, prosperity followed. When that freedom was curtailed, poverty has been certain. We saw that in the early days of the Ancient Romans, in the Silk Roads where merchants sold their goods from Asia to Europe; even in the violent days of the Viking Age with its "bullion aconomy" propelling human prosperity in Europe, and the Middle East. And not to mention the largest experiment in human freedom ever achieved in written history: The American Revolution, which gave us the best example of how humans can prosper in an amazing way, if they agree to respect a few rules that guarantee enough human freedom to roam about and trade at will to whomever.

Also, one can see in that same history how these fantastic Eras and Civilizations seem to always have the same fate: Decadence! As societies become more complex, there seems to be an almost irresistible force pushing them towards building ridiculous bureaucracies, and from these parasitic institutions, politians, and other leeches find the perfect ecosystem to thrive. And then those great days of prosperities go away, leaving ruins and silly old coins to be visited by mesmerized tourists in the future.

Enter the Internet!

Since the advent of the Internet, humans have had, probably for the first time in history, the chance to find ways to resist this entropic fate. We have created online forums to converse without any form of censorship, bypassing the filters of powers that be. In those societies where censorship is pushed down people's throats from tyranically centralized governments, we have used technologies like cryptography, to circumvent.

But no modern invention has the potential to liberate us from these cunning parasites, who want to tell us how to live, what to say, and what to do (though those same despicable overlords tend themselves to play by different rules!), as the Internet. And to think the Internet was spawned from the rivalry of some of those same overlords!

So, as a consequence of this now we have, if not yet perfect, still a potentially disrupting platform where the balance can go towards free thinking people, even when they're not capable of fighting back through conventional means.

The mass media calls for control over 'nutcases' spreading conspiracy theories. The music industry overlords calls for the government to shut down pirate sources that spread evil copies of their garbage.

Enter cryptocurrency!

With technologies like blockchain, cryptonight, and others being created left and right, we have the chance to finally prove that money is not the "root of all evil" per se, but that the result of its use depends on who uses it.

Amongst a sea of cryptocoins, we now have Brazukcoin!

Our ultimate mission is to help dethrone parasites who feed on the blood of hard-working 'peasants', so dumbed-down that they cannot fight back, so they think.

And in order to do that, a few principles must be respected and achieved.

By understanding the challenges told above, any form of human interaction, like with money for example, must achieve these crucial goals:


- Privacy:

No form of tyranny or censorship, whether from a rogue individual, or organization, must be able to coerce or interfere in any form in anyone's desire to voluntarially trade his money for any goods or service, if agreed by the other party, unless harm is done to a helpless third party, whether a child, or an animal, for example.

In Brazukcoin we use the CryptoNote technology.

Some of its features satisfies our goals of privacy:

Untraceable payments: Ring signature protects your privacy by signing communication on behalf of a group, therefore obfuscating the individual.

Unlinkable transactions: By using Diffie-Helmann cryptography, transactions are obfuscated by sending multiple unique addresses from a single public key, therefore cross-linking communication.


- Security:

Blockchain analysis resistance: By not repeating one-time addresses and mixing keys in ring signatures, Cryptonight makes very hard to break Brazukcoin's security model through pattern analysis.

Adaptative paremeters: Cryptonight forces the network to adapt independently of individual desires. Its current state is re-calculated from previous ones allowing the network to develop on its own, without direct human intervention (Goodbye central banks!).


Accessibility:

In order to make Brazukcoin avaialable to everyone we must guarantee accessibility.

- People should be able to interact with Brazukcoin in their languages.

- They should have Brazukcoin available to them even in the most tyrannical environment (through obsfucating schemes like Tor, for example).

- They should not depend on always-on Internet to keep their money available (paper wallet).


Easy of Use:

Brazukcoin should easy to use like fiat money is. People shouldn't have to receive complex training to use it. That is, in itself, already a form of friction to adoption.

- Use of web wallet,
- GUI wallet.
- more...


These are the main pillars of a successful form of free money. Any other adition to Brazuk, whether database sharding, darknet readiness, must be looked on based on the requirements above.

What is the most important thing in a coin? What sets it apart from the rest of the coins? Is this the next Monero clone or something new?

2K dug for hours or 0 BZK ??? ??? ??? ???

jiang2897,

Are you ok now, or the problem persists?

Please, if so, give details of the issue so we can help you!


Thanks!

mr-horror,

The most important thing in a coin, IMO, is not having to rely on intermediaries.

Regarding Brazukcoin and Monero, they're not identical, but they do share the same Cryptonight technology.

themathiasmiller,


Thanks for the support!


Notice that we already have a website https://www.brazukcoin.space/ (https://www.brazukcoin.space/), courtesy of katorisenko. Check it out!
I'll soon release an official one though.

Yes, I'm the only dev behind this project. Having said that, I've had help from several people in the community (the pools, block explorer, website, etc).


Make sure to spread the word about us, and get on board as well!

Is this project all about mining or what? What is the value proposition of this project. Please dev there is need for more information about this project.

Cashwave,


Thanks for the interest!


Well, what can I say?

Honestly, this project is obviously about money after all, and in this regard, not different from the many other coins out there. Money not controlled by mafias (governments), but your own private money.

Eventually, I'll create a tech mailing list where devs can come together and help me try new ideas for this coin.

As long as these ideas enforce the 3 pillars of Brazukcoin: privacy, security, accessibility, I'm game!

Right now I'm working on making bzk accessible and a trustworthy investment.


Don't hesitate and get your wallet now!

The hashrate is already fairly high for such a young coin, and when we hit the exchanges things will go crazy!    ;D

Hello folks!


Let's keep the ball rolling!

See you there!

This is not a CPU-only/ CPU-friendly algo, right?

rohitm,

No. You can mine with GPU too!

Hello folks!



Friends, when you have the time I need your help.

So, looking around this forum I realized there are threads for alt-coin announcement in different languages.

I translated the [ANN] post to my native language (Portuguese) and posted it here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2721876.new#new

Please, translate the [ANN] to your local language, and spread the good news!   ;D

You can find many other languages available here:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php#5



Thank you!


ps.: if you do it, please post the link here. It'll be interesting to see!

Hello guys!



Here are the discord and slack invites.

People seem to ask a lot about these, so there you have it!

I mine but I'm not an expert. Just wondering why I'm getting more share accepted at bzk.hpool.net than bzcpool.us.to, or why difficulty remains low at bzk.hpool.net to the point I'm getting share accepted every 2 seconds?
I have two VMs 180h/s each. One mines at bzk.hpool.net:19807 other at bzcpool.us.to:8884, after an hour later .. see screen shots below:

Does it mean I'll get more coins at bzk.hpool.net or I'm just making my CPUs work harder?
Thanks.

Can you provide a little more information about the project, how are you different than any other anonymous coin in the market?

Hello,

I am mining on hpool for 3 hours but there is not any coin. Is it pool scam or something wrong with me? Thanks for any help.

Folks!


Have you gone to Brazukcoin's online presence at Discord, yet?

Be there! https://discord.gg/u5654Jj


Thanks!

Hello folks!

Discord link has changed: https://discord.gg/u5654Jj



Sorry for the confusion!


See you there!

I mine at pool.brazukcoin.space with a rx 580 4g, around 600 hs but after one hour still nothing mined. The calculator: 139 coins a day. Does it take a long time before i see my actual balance?

Drakzero,

Check the maturation at the pool.

Tell me if you still have problems!

Watching this project.

Hello folks!


We now have binaries for Linux 64 bit as well as Windows 64 bit:


Check it out here: https://github.com/brazukcoin/brazukcoin/releases/

CoinArt,


Welcome on board!

Good head start for Brazukcoin. But i hope so that it means only the beginning because there's a lot of ways of improvement.
Like for start giving much more informations about things people like to know better - (roadmap,social media(community),exchanges plans...)
Opening the bounites will gain trust to everyone willing to invest or just promote project.
Hope you consider something ;)

Doovla,

Thank you very much! I'm very optimistic about Brazuk's future!

I hear you!

We certainly have a long way to go, and that's actually good news!   ;D

There's plenty of opportunities in Brazukcoin. Whether you like marketing, or write code, or anything related to a new and upcoming cryptocurrency, our terrain is very fertile to participation.

I understand very well why people want to know about roadmap, social media presence, etc.. They want to be sure their investments won't fall short.

What I can say is that Brazukcoin has a very robust infrastructure, and even though we're still lacking in some sectors, the coin has been going through a very interesting organic growth (as planned). Its mining difficulty is one proof that people trusts us: https://block.brazukcoin.space/en/#

Regarding roadmap, I wrote a few things about it some posts earlier, but will make it more concise and clear in the near future.

We are establishing a social media presence, and it's just starting! Please, check them out!

As for exchanges, I am testing the waters as we speak!

By the way, any help is very welcome in this territory!


I think we can wait grow our foundations and community, before taking this step, but if the chance arises, I won't say no..



Don't miss out!


Regards!

katorisenko,

Thank you for elaborating. Now I remember reading something about share with lesser value .... somewhere.

Probably inconclusive but after close to 24 hrs of mining, this is what I have:
- Two miners one at each pool for 7 hours
- Coins earned:
36 for miner1 at hi-diff
30 for miner2 at low-diff (~5 hr wait for maturity)
- Stop miner2 at low-diff pool, re-pointed it to hi-diff pool
- Coins earned at 24 hrs since start:
97 for miner 1
92.0 for miner 2

I think I'll stick to hi-diff pool :)
Thanks,

It seems http://bzk.hpool.net/ is down - cant connect the miner and the website is not opening as well.

rohitm,


It seems ok to me.

Please, check them again!

Hello folks!


Now we have pre-compiled Wallet for Mac OS!

Hello dev!
Is the coin going to the exchange? Which exchange do you plan to exit first?  ??? ??? ???

pyrko.kirill


We'll get into the first one available   ;D

Looking at this chart I see the usual suspects: bittrex, yobit, hitbtc, etc.

Hello folks!


Brazukcoin now has an official website!

Check it out!  https://www.brazukcoin.org/



Let me also thank katorisenko, who has provided us an temporary website so far!



Let's go!

The pool  brazukcoin.space  does not update information, there are no payments.

It was down for a bit yesterday but working fine now.

hi Dev, i am following you since the beginning.. Now we the miners have some problem between 2 pools .One of them maturity is 10 block , which is correct and the other one's is 60 block, which is wrong. Therofore miners couldnot receive their shares in a proper way..

Can you tell the "hpool", change the maturity to 10 blocks and minimum payments threshold to 2 coins?

Then everything will be balanced on the 2 pool and miners will be much happy to receive their shares in a short time

thanks and good luck. we are here and watching you.

Also i will have some good new about exchange in a 1-2 months time. Keep in touch..

regards.

Yes, you are right.

Have been corrected

we see that the blockchain is haelthy,No problem was found, it's always been wellde

this is just beginning ,hope will run well in future.

@chinakatana; thank you very much for correcting the maturity. This will attracts more miners.

I have to work in Maturity Depth Requirement 60
to be stable in this way

Why？？？？，
Other pools need to do this

yes,i saw it,but do not know why, sometimes, more than 1 hour no block
may be my own problem,i am looking for a reason

pool fee 0, you mustn't do that. it's wron，we need more pools,no one wants to make the 0fee pool

tigerjack,


I see that chinatakana already solved the pool maturity thing. You'll be ok now.

So, I checked the network's hashrate and its beyond 100 kh/s now, from 60 a couple days ago.
It means we're reaching good level of trust within the community.

Good luck with the exchanges, I'm also working on it.


Thanks for the support and stay with us!

Hi katorisenko have updated pool address in my miners keep up the good work

The real anonymous currency?
There are many similar anonymous COINS.

hi , i am an owner of big cryptonight mining proxy with total hashrate ~ all brazukcoin network hashing speed. I made my own server, ready to start to mine solo. Once the coin will be available in some exchange, i will start to mine here..

;)

chinakatana


That's great feedback!

I keep monitoring the servers for stability.

katorisenko,


Info updated!

Thank you!

xavieron,


Thanks for the pool!


Welcome on board!     ;D

We want you!   ;D


Thanks for the interest!

Hello folks!



We now have a new pool created by yours truly!

http://pool.brazukcoin.org


Please, consider joining so you can help spread the hashes, and also donate 0.5% to me.

As far I know, 0.5% means that out of every 100 minutes you mine, 30 seconds you mine to the pool owner.


Let's go!

Someone recently sent me 100 bzk.

If that was a donation, I can't find words to thank you enough!

Thank you!

Current state of the project and next steps?

aryan7980,


We are very happy with brazuk's evolution so far.

Next steps involve entering the exchanges, and keep making use of bzk easy, with GUI and mobile wallets.


We'll keep you posted!

Hello folks!


I had to rebuild and re-test pool.brazukcoin.org.

Now it's ready to go finally!


But the people in this list got their money stuck.. take this link to see how much money I'll send you manually.

The rest of the miners in the list havent reach the threshhold of 2 bzk, BUT i'll pay them anyway for the effort they had...but niw my nails are crawling, so i'll do it tomorrow
see you!



Happy mining in this new and shining pool [pool.brazukcoin.org] btw!

Folks!



Ok logged in just to say that pool is confirmed payment working fine.


Now I can let the pool run on its own, and then move on to other dev works.

Hello folks!


Now we have a official blockchain explorer: http://explorer.brazukcoin.org/


Enjoy!

Nice job. We now need a GUI wallet to get more adoption and then maybe some exchange to trade it on. It's sad you didn't pre-mine anything - that could have been used for paying bounties.

rohitm,


Thanks!

Well, that's in the past now!

We keep going!


By the way, we now have an offline wallet generator: http://wallet.brazukcoin.org/   (I forked it from moneroo, and it's not finished but usable. Try and tell me).

Why an offline wallet generator? I think it helps one of the foundations of Brazukcoin, and that is accessibility. Some people don't want to have to download the blockchain now. They just want a wallet so they can join bzk.

So there it is!

It would be really amazing for content creators to use something like this in order to evade unnecessary taxation!

I definitely agree with you that we need online/light/paper wallet which everyone can use! When I visit the website you provided, even without generating a wallet I already see public address, mnemonic seed and the private keys.

i dont find whitepaper and team profile of this project. Can anyone show me?

Hello folks!


We at Brazukcoin have based our foundation on 3 principles: Accessibility, Security, and Privacy.


Accessibility: easy of access; obtainable; capable of being used.

Security: the condition of not being threatened; freedom from apprehension.

Privacy: the state of not being seen by others.


Brazukcoin, and its services must look at this principles as non-negotiable, if we want to reach our end-goal of "financial freedom".

So, in light of that, I ask you to stop using our official pool [pool.brazukcoin.org] for the time being. It will be removed from the [ANN] post and other sources.

We have learned that our pool stopped working for about 3 hours, and although we have found the reason, we're not comfortable with workarounds (hacks), so we'll debug it until we fix the root cause. Then we'll test it in a virtual environment for a couple months, or so, until we are happy with it.

Only then I will release the pool again.



Of course, you have reliable alternatives below!

arelyh,


Great job!     ;D


The world needs to know about bzk!


Thanks!

Can we get an explanation of how the difficulty algorithm works for this coin?  Yesterday 700 KH/s was put on the network on one of the pools for about 30 minutes or so.  The difficulty never changed and the blocks were being found at a rate much faster than 30 seconds.  The first page shows the difficulty is suppose to re-target after every block but this didn't seem to happen.  Just curious if this is intended or if something needs to be looked at.  Thank you in advance.

-Xav

I have a feeling this dev is going to do a runner but I do hope I am wrong. It looks like another TCOIN - he entered here completely unprepared without any knowledge of the cryptonight algorithm, and it's challenges.

I do you hope you don't just give up on this!

xavieron,



Difficulty is just a value used to show how hard is it to find a hash.

In Brazukcoin, that value is re-targeted every 240 seconds.

I look at http://explorer.brazukcoin.org/ and the blockchain is behaving as intended.

By the way, looking at the amount of miners in the pools, I don't see a decrease in numbers of people involved in the network, but a slower difficulty target anyway. This means we have less whales, and more organic growth participation.

That is what is intended!

Brazukcoin is this a fraud project, it seems to be unable to find too much information. Let's be careful. There's a lot of air projects now.

DeanoGaffers,


You seem to be losing faith in the project, but I don't see evidence that backs it up.

If you look at where we were just a few days ago (remember, this coin is not even a month old!), and where we are now, we already sport a good infrastructure, and bzk is on solid terrain.

In the end, where we'll go will depend on the market of people involved.


Thanks for the good wishes, and I give it back to you with an advice: Don't miss out!



ps.: I've been aloof in the weekends because of family demands, but bzk is close to the heart. I can't wait to get to Monday so I can go back to the workplace, to work on bzk!


btw DeanoGaffers, your post deserves a Bon Jovi song: Keep the faith! https://play.google.com/music/preview/Tcutvemvxfpwxxbaypltwf3gtri?lyrics=1&utm_source=google&utm_medium=search&utm_campaign=lyrics&pcampaignid=kp-songlyrics

 ;D


Yes, you deserve it for your lack of faith in bzk. And if you show up again bringing more rain, I'll give you Kenny G (you don't want to go there!)


Have a nice weekend!


 ;)

wanggq8877,

Brazukcoin is an open-source project. No pre-mine quick money, no ICO whitepaper money grab.

Just good old openness.


In the coming week I'll do a review of where we are (a state of the union, if you will).

We have to organize now that we have so many things to maintain:

Social media (discord, twitter, facebook, reddit, etc).

Packaging: binaries for the different OSs.

Mobile and paper wallets, and so much more, that will have in the future.

And on, and on...

Before expanding, I want to make sure those resources are well structured.

Note that this is what have been planned from day one: Solid backend first, frontend later.


Keep the faith! See my post above... there is a song for you there as well!

 ;D

Hello,

What is the initial max supply of this coin, 10,000,000 BZK?

Thankyou for the reassuring update Mr Brazuk coin

Yours sincerely,

Deano Gaffers

Hello dev,

Looks like you really have passion in this project. I'm switching my 13kH/s rig to your coin. I like the way you support and answer the community. I don't know how many people in your team right now but you will need more than 1 person to handle the incoming jobs when the coin grows bigger.

cecilia1,


Yes, you are correct.

For more details look at the specifications in the [ANN] post.







cecilia1,


Thanks for your words and interest.


Welcome on board!

Gotta check this out. Looks like a promising ICO.

3KyNoX,


Thanks for the interest, and wecome!


Notice though that this is not a ICO.



btw, I'm usually active at Discord: https://discord.gg/u5654Jj

So, what is the real purpose of this coin? Do you have a targeted market, or what kind of companies should cooperate with BZK to bring it to real life?

He is a shill trying to boost his forum ranking

dev , can we hit some exchange market for trading bzk?

Every day I see new promising interesting projects.Today I was pleasantly surprised

You can try https://cryptohub.online/coin_add/ It's a new exchange which also provides other services such as mining pools, faucets, PoS etc. Looks interesting to me!

Edit: Never mind, they also dont list CryptoNight coins as of now.

Lareina,

We're still evaluating exchanges.


For now, you can try the Discord channel bzk-exchange. There is activity there of people already bargaining: https://discord.gg/Tg7S6H5



Good luck!

Hello folks!


So, to let you know the next steps for Brazukcoin, and keep you motivated, here I tell you where we are and what's in store for bzk in the coming months.

First I would like to say I am very happy with the progress we've made so far! BZK had no fancy marketing, no pre-mine, nor ICO attention grabbing, so I tend to believe our community is growing based on the trust in the foundations we've established for this project.

And this community has invested their trust and resources on this project, so it's only natural that we keep providing information on where we're going, based on our expectations and the feedback we've received.

Ok, from the beginning we've planned "organic growth instead of flashy start", and that's what we've got!

In 20 days we went from having only a blockchain, codebase and a forum, to providing many resources like pools, block explorer, offline wallets, pre-compiled binaries for different Operating Systems, website, and social media.

We still have a long way to go, but as our assets grow, I think it's important to keep things organized and well-knit so these same assets don't bring us maintenance burden, but do what their purposes are: help BZK grow!

We should look at them as growing pains! Not to be looked on negatively, but positively!


First let us take a closer look at what Brazukcoin has so provided so far to the community, and the state of affairs to each asset:


In the social media arena, we have the following

- Discord
- Slack
- Bitcointalk
- Facebook
- Twitter
- Reddit

Of these, Discord (https://discord.gg/u5654Jj) has been by far the best venue we've had. Easy to manage, a lot of users.

There's job to do with the others.

- Github

Github provides good venue to share open-source. It's easy to manage!

- Website

Currently we have www.brazukcoin.space, kindly provided by katorisenko.

I am reviewing the possibility of creating a jekyll based website from scratch. It sounds fun to do, which means easy!

- Block Explorer

We have two block explorers, and although I have to tidy up mine, it's practically work done!

- Offline Wallet

The offline wallet is ready to go. Again, some tiding up, but this tool is very important to spread BZK, for its ease of use.

- Pre-compiled wallets

When we started the only option was building your wallet from the source code. No more!

Now we have pre-compiled binaries for Windows, Mac, Linux.

Some work to do is regarding to packaging. We need to have a unified release of the binaries.

Also we stil need to get mobile wallets.

The offline wallet is a great tool we have, as it enables the newcomer to jump in easily.

- Pools

We have currently 3 very stable pools available to the community. That is very important as it makes mining attractive to users who don't have much hashrate at the moment.

Ok, so as you can see, we are going fast and this ship is not stalling!


We need to focus on integrating those tools very well in the ecosystem. This will bring a unified, and sober message from Brazukcoin to the growing community.



The end goal is to make BZK valuable in the marketplace, so anything that contributes to that end eventually will be accomplished.

But before that, it's critical that we have our current resources well established and functioning.


Thank you very much for the support in this great project we've just started.


The future has never been better!

Thanks for the update!

Perhaps define a monthly update day or bi-monthly days to announce those kind of updates, so people know when will there be an update, not just suddenly appear from nowhere?

Thanks for the update, i like where you going with this will keep mining on the pool

another brazilian coin?
 ;D ???

who are the devs?
tell us more about yourselfs

I wish you success. I'm looking forward to the exchange.

cecilia1,


Good idea!

I will do it anyway, but establishing a time pace is the way to go.

A 'State of the Coin' address.








Sosolean,

Thanks


This ship is sailing! Hold tight!    ;D










natan069,


I'm Brazilian and that's where the Braz... in Brazukcoin comes from, but 99.9% of the people in the community seem to be from all over the planet.

The biggest pool is run by Chinese, the website hosted by Japanese (I guess?), etc.. So to call BZK a "Brazilian" coin wouldn't be true.

I actually would like to have Brazilians jumping on board. I think we need a better coin than our fiat one, but I haven't got good luck with them (yet).


But well, we can't wait as the ship has sailed.

You're welcome to get on board! The diff is still ok so there's time before we hit the exchanges!

For more active information, join us at Discord: https://discord.gg/u5654Jj

Svob777,


Thank you!


Don't forget to get your wallet!

Try the offline wallet generator: http://wallet.brazukcoin.org/

Or get binaries: https://github.com/brazukcoin/brazukcoin/releases

Or yet, compile from the source code!  https://github.com/brazukcoin/brazukcoin

Cannot type in Telegram.  Looks like no one else can either.

-Xav

It's a channel, not a group.

xavieron,


Now we have a Brazukcoin group on Telegram!

Join by clicking here: https://t.me/joinchat/FWPKVhIKxwgl6cauM-3-eg


Have fun!

Need French translation ? Pm Me !

telegram groups a little quiet hopefully we can get some more members and activity soon

Nordine31,

There will be opportunity for this soon!

We're working on a new website that will integrate localization tools for translation.

1 - The new website is an open-source project in github: https://github.com/brazukcoin so you can contribute in the website construction itself.

The reason Github Pages was chosen is because it integrates well with Crowdin.com, a platform for translations. Also it uses Jekyll [https://jekyllrb.com (https://jekyllrb.com)] for template creation.

2 - Check our crowdin project here: https://crowdin.com/project/brazukcoinorg

The ultimate idea is having a single point of presence for anything Brazukcoin. Then from there you'll be able to find the latest news, blog posts, wallets, etc. Instead of having to search on different locations to find information on BZK.


Join us at Discord: https://discord.gg/u5654Jj for updates.


By the way, Discord is where BZK has been most active for latest news. We'll keep updating on bitcointalk of course, but if you want to get the latest news, go to Discord.


Thank you!

katorisenko,

Let me first thank you for your job! It has been great!



Guys, we have great pool options!

Mining Pools:


You can create your own pool by cloning from Brazukcoin Pool:

https://github.com/brazukcoin/pool.brazukcoin.org



Or use this quality pools for Brazukcoin!


http://pool.brazukcoin.org


http://pool.brazukcoin.space


http://bzk.hpool.net


http://brazukcoin.labbinarymining.com/

Hello,
Wallet fail and cannot sync at: [BlockchainSynchronizer] Failed to query outdated pool transaction: NodeErrorCategory:3, Network error
In daemon say: "unknown top block"
Thanks,

minercui,

Make sure your daemon 'brazukcoind' is sync'd with P2P network. Only then start the wallet 'simplewallet'.

Also, if you just want to have a BZK wallet, an easy way is to visit our wallet generator: http://wallet.brazukcoin.org/

Write down the seed!

Good luck!

Road map and exchange?

any news on exchange

Hello Folks!


Now we have a GUI wallet for Brazukcoin!

Currently for Linux: https://github.com/brazukcoin/brazukcoinwallet/releases/tag/v1.0.1

Window and Mac wallets following soon!


Enjoy!


btw, The community has been most active at Discord: https://discord.gg/u5654Jj

WOOT WOOT been waiting for this day!

step 3 ?

check discord group or our twitter.
discord: https://discord.gg/KUKP3GU
twitter: https://twitter.com/brazukcoin

bitcointalk removes links, if you cant or pm me

In total, BrazukCoin dropped 50 users, totaling 2,500 COINS.
It seems that too few people get it.

There was no premine, funds are coming only from official pool and donations. But this is only first airdrop for start, more airdrops will come, and there are only two users submitted for now...
We will also introduce twitter and facebook contests, so there will be plenty of giveaways in next months....

When hashrate on official pool increases, fund will increase. But considering total amount and block rewards 50BZK is quite large amount....

Here is the link from official account, hopefully they wont remove this one:
Sign up here: https://goo.gl/forms/TNBuTZhYowPtUZlq1

Is http://bzk.hpool.net/ down and out? Mining there for hours but it shows no change in balance even though blocks are being found.

awesome concept! I'll be monitoring this

use our official pools as hpool owner set fee to 99999% so all found coins go to them, they are scamming!

join us on discord and be informed about everything thats going on :)

when is it planned to enter the exchange?

When we gather enough BTC through donations :)

When are you going to go to the exchange

Nice one :D

I redid the website. tell me if you guys like it and want to switch over?

http://bzkcoin.mytalentnetwork.com/ (http://bzkcoin.mytalentnetwork.com/)

Much better.. however before you move over. The formatting on mobile is not quite right. Also some of the image links look very low res

thank you ill check that out. which image links?

The coin logo is very blurry and not centered correctly and the wallet logos are not right either. Everything else looks clean.


"Egalitarian proof-of-work
The proof of work mechanism acts as a voting system. Thus, it is crucial that during the voting process all the participants have equal voting privileges.
ASIC-Resistant."

The coin logo also blocks this text from being viable.  

Very slick and professional! I like it!

Some details like the logo, but good job overall.

Please reach @vortexfoto at Discord. I have directed our web site domain to his server, and he might need just what you've done.

I'll let him know anyway!

Well i think must download the linux gui binaries for setup a new windows gui wallet. it was reversed tutorial instructions, lol ;D

there  must be something wrong with the network figures in the pool (http://pool.brazukcoin.org/)
the block found figures in minutes , just don't add up, along with the figures for network hash rate and difficulty
it is not possible for the network to report last block found one hour and the pool to say 30 minutes
 
what am i missing? is it supposed to be like that?
network figures seem to be out of sync completely

Everything works great, problem is just that pool isnt checking livetime status but average between some blocks, and when high hashrate kicks in, network needs to find a block to update status....

The info for pool is realtime information...

we are implementing a fix for this issue, but as i can see its common for all cryptonote coins...

ok thanks
it seems things are back to normal.

Hello folks!


We have a new revamped website: https://www.brazukcoin.org/

It was professionally done!

Now Brazukcoin has, finally, a home. So from now on, if you need information about roadmap, or any official decisions about the coin, head over there!

this coin need a mainstream exchange platform
or will drop!

Hello folks!
IMPORTANT!
Upgrade your wallets, so you stay in sync with blockchain.
the new GUI wallet for Windows: https://github.com/brazukcoin/brazukcoinwallet/releases/tag/v.1.4.5
GitHub
brazukcoin/brazukcoinwallet
brazukcoinwallet - A GUI Wallet for Brazukcoin

Also, the source code: https://github.com/brazukcoin/brazukcoin.git
GitHub
brazukcoin/brazukcoin
brazukcoin - Brazukcoin - true anonymous currency

Release notes:
- fix diff issue with sudden surge in network hashrate (Zawi's algorithm).
- added a new seed node (helps keeping the network stable.
- This is hard fork. Anyone not running this release will be out of the network (mining a different coin technically), when we reach block 18.500

Do I need a wallet upgrade if Im using CLI with the Daemon?

Tell me pls when you list on exchange?

PotatoPants,


Yes, it' a must, otherwise you'll be mining the wrong chain.

Please, check the website for different wallets to upgrade from: http://www.brazukcoin.org/

Obduvan,

Sure, don't worry!

btw, we are gathering funds to enter https://crex24.com/

Check it out how far we have to go with the funding here: http://www.brazukcoin.org/

Why, https://crex24.com/ ? First the price is ok, 0.01 btc

Also, its owner, @crex has joined our Discord channel https://discord.gg/u5654Jj

So I've talked to him, and know that he personally likes the coin, therefore the path to our first exchange seems very near!


Let's go!

When you say he would  be mining the wrong chain? was there a hard fork? are my original coins still valuable?

Yes, there was a hardfork when we reached block height 18.500.   :)


We are now part of a small club of coins who sport the new difficulty algorithm from Zawi.
Take a look here for more info about it: https://github.com/zawy12/difficulty-algorithms/issues/3

Cryptonote coins (all of them) have a problem when big miners come suddenly for fast mining, and then leave. That's because when they come, the difficulty rises, but when they leave, small miners can't find blocks so the coin gets stuck for hours and hours becoming useless during that period.

Brazukcoin, along with a few others have Zawi's new algorithm that takes care of these sudden rush scenario.

Now nicehashers can do their thing and we'll be able to stay solid!




Get the latest code from here to stay up to date!

https://www.brazukcoin.org


Good luck!


btw, your original coins are safe!

Thanks to the Dev for the quick reply.

I updated from CLI wallet to new GUI wallet.

Ran the GUI, Sync'ed the chain, and then just imported my SimpleWallet file without any issues at all.

Good work Dev! 

This is a good project, I will continue to pay attention, hope you can improve more information, and you have the generosity?

@brazukcoin is very helpfull and active in Brazukcoin  community ,this is why i am paying attation to this project from beginning and hold my coins for long term investment
