I give up for now with bn-mining, it's a waste of my time. 4 Windows and 1 VM Ubuntu machine constantly spilling with "EXCEPTION:12bignum_error
CBigNum:operator/ : BN_div failed" or St12 , St13 Exceptions, sometimes they work for some time with blockchain in sync but stop mining, it's easy to check, when processes are using less than 20 % of CPU and less than 800MB of ram.
Ignore the exception, it only means the bidtracker was unable to retrieve all data. The falling out of sync issue is likely connection related, make sure you aren't just connected to one peer or multiple peers on outgoing connections only. |

With no real wallet support and no dev..... how long will this last if a unresolveable fork happens?
People asked (you) about a rate. I do not know |

I would be open for a swap to a totally new coin or a swap with value close to .00005000 per coin to get a dev. I am not one to dump on the market. These coins are only hobby not a source of income for me. I usually keep most 95% in btc and the rest in altcoins to keep me from getting bored.
We all have different motivations, you are optimistic though  |

As I understand it, bitcreditscc made a generous offer to absorb this coin and others into his system. Considering that you want masternodes (we call our basenodes) and a dev who actually produces things, i'd encourage you to talk to him again and find out if it's still open.
What are you talking about? Could you please elaborate it? Sent you a PM Maybe I should elaborate. I would like a swap with our own coin. The problem I have with a swap for bitcredits coin: price,name change, gaming tournaments lost, etc...I am sure there are more. it might be a safe way out of our predicament but playing is safe is boring. Oh,and yes, it was very nice of bitcredits to offer to help. I don't think the dev is going to kill off those ideas, but you's have to hear from him. Did you ever hear about Gamecoin? How did that work out? Have you heard of *coin ? How did those work out? The moment a fledgling project like this losses it's dev, it's headed for the graveyard. The final result will likely be a slow painful death with occasional thread bumps from bagholders, and he knows it :- I'm spreading the word about your offer to absorb coins among the ones i once had interest in. Is the offer still open?
I do want to bring in more people but ones i studied seemed full of trolls and get rich quick characters, not at all suited to the way we do things here. The offer is still open but most of them will hold till it completely dies, hoping and wishing for a pump on their abandoned projects. Taking people that desperate for quick profit may end up being a total disaster. Getting them to abandon ship will be tough for you. You can start a vote on the issue. If some capable dev came along, they'd likely start afresh on a new coin rather than use this one.....and thus i have said enough, if you can't take a cue from the thousands of projects dead in the water due to the same shenanigans that happened here, then it's a lost cause. I liked this idea, but luckily got out quick, seems now my choice wasn't so bad after all. |

what's happening guys? Is it working yet?  Nothing yet... swap..................................? Swap would be great if we can get a swap with a coin that has masternodes or something that we can use for gaming tournaments. As I understand it, bitcreditscc made a generous offer to absorb this coin and others into his system. Considering that you want masternodes (we call our basenodes) and a dev who actually produces things, i'd encourage you to talk to him again and find out if it's still open. 100% agreed Doesn't this offer mean losing the brand of 8bit, and in general losing the identity of the coin..? I don't think there is a better option on the table. What's a name without a working product ? .....nothing |

If you're sick of hearing about the fraudulent instamine, maybe you should blame the instamine scammers instead of the whistleblowers  @icebucket, yeah i'm sure eduffield put a lot of thought into that explanation.. what exactly do you expect, that he'll admit it? It's very obvious to anyone with a brain that the instamine was intentional. Keep trying to promote an instamined scam coin.. Darkcoin/Dash supporting scam deniers are one of the reasons why crypto is seen as a complete joke. Good job! Tell me ......of all the cryptos you use, in which one do you pay for a second of the dev's time? Or are you just that special that people should work for you for free...? |

Are you saying we shouldn't put those arguments up on the OP? Thing is, if it's there, one could assume that newbies could find the relevant information easily for themselves. We could also answer back on the forum, please read the OP. I don't think it looks bad on us to admit to the instamine, and to explain how it actually benefited the project.
I wouldn't bother, for 2 reasons: [1] - there is no case to answer as far as the 'instamine' is concerned. A badly launched coin can be a far more secure and viable investment than a so called 'well launched' one - in fact most "well launched" coins have been utter disasters as a long term investment. The only reason it gets thrown in our faces is that it's all there is for those who are attempting to push their own competing agendas, most of which have 'scam factors' that are far more terminal than Dash's early fastmine. None of those are going to go on the header of an ANN thread, you can be sure of that. [2] - Dash's future markets are not the readers of bitcointalk. They are commercial economic sectors who will adopt a cryptocurrency on grounds of pure economic advantage - nothing else. If a monetary media can demonstrate a proven profitability in a sector, it will get used. If it doesn't it won't. Dash's mission is to acquire the technological properties that deliver such a gain. It has jack to do with the launch. All those instamine spammers make me sick. Many on these forums expect a dev with a brilliant mind and good work ethic to just create something and for some reason...not have some for themselves. The work these guys do in a month is on par or even more than most other *devs do in a year. Do you as users pay his salary? NO, do you as users make any contributions to the devs monetary needs? or even just token compensation for the time spent and talents used? Yet you expect him to work for free? Anyone who complains about the claimed instamine be it intentional or otherwise is lacking in intelligence and basic reasoning. Tell me, what should motivate the dev then if he doesn't have vested interest in the project?......his kind heart perhaps? While you go wild screaming "Moon, Moon"! ? Just be happy the devs are there working their asses off everyday to bring you this service. You are literally going after a developer for partaking in of his invention.....his OPEN SOURCE invention. |

If this is stalling , you can always take up the offer by bitcreditscc to absorb coins that want to use masternodes to deploy decentralized services. They already have a working voting system so decisions can be made by the community.

looks rather interesting, although what are the devs doing with the premine?
trolls need to take the time to read... or focus on dead pointless coin revival. |

Has anyone managed to get more than 8 GPUs working reliably on any system at all? Linux or windows?
yes, 10GPU on Windows abd 18GPU on Linux   Any guides? |

PCIe SLOT SPLITTER--
They go for $35-40 now. It is powered, and the graphic cards must be also by a powered USB riser and possibly a PCIe power line depending on the graphic card model.. There are models of this splitter card that sell for more than the price of a motherboard, too. Good luck! --scryptr
Something like: http://amfeltec.com/products/flexible-x4-pci-express-4-way-splitter/YES-- The model(s) that you link are priced per quote only. I am sure that you could get a refund if they didn't work. Get the cheap ones off of Amazon, you can get a refund that way. --scryptr I've tried searching for some, but can't main one down, maybe i'm using rong key words, if you have a link , i'd be grateful. Now this brings forward an interesting topic, a while back when we could still really mine BTC with GPUs , windows 7 had a 4 GPU limit, is there a way around this? Has anyone managed to get more than 8 GPUs working reliably on any system at all? Linux or windows? |

POWERED USB RISERS--
Powered USB risers cost about the same as the cheap and dangerous flat-cable risers picured a few posts back. They power each card with a 4-pin MOLLEX or SATA adapter, not to the PCIe port, but to the goldfingers of the card, just like the motherboard slots.
They are more safe, and the USB cable is more flexible. --scryptr
P.S. SP_ release dot 70 mines Neoscrypt at 340kh/s on my GTX 960, rather than 330-335kh/s with release dot 69. However, a very brief attempt at solo-mining failed. I'll try again later. --scryptr
curious......on the usb side, what would be the results of me adding one of those hubs and tring to run 8 GPUs off pcie ? |

There is no need to use PoW to secure a block chain, let alone very strong PoW.
That design decision comes from a fundamental (but rarely discussed) design requirement Satoshi had, which is that all entities in Bitcoin must be able to join and leave at will, unannounced and anonymously.
If you want a purely decentralised system, this is a "hard" requirement, it's non-negotiable. Bitcoin simply wouldn't work without it.
If you are willing to relax the decentralisation requirements a bit so that there's some kind of explicit join/leave protocol and participants have some verified identity, or you can rely on non-standard hardware, then you don't need PoW anymore. You can just use chains of digital signatures, for example. Or you could use PoW as a means to do a randomised leader election like Bitcoin does, but where each miner just uses a single CPU because the amount of hashing doesn't matter (fraud can be punished via the legal system instead). Nice start, you seem to have solved even the problem of easy anon entry/exit. |

Don't give up!! If you actually get this to work , you'd have solved at least two of the problems tons of other devs have tried and failed.
