Good day developers. I offer to you let's take a vote on individual items of development of this coin? For example:
- whether community wants to eliminate some of the problems associated with ASIC. That is, add x11, remove algorithm SHA and script. (Fighting ASIC)
- To reduce the award for blocks (fighting inflation)
- Some more items that can offer any of the investors or community miners or others.

For example look like done in MIN.



WAT?

no.  it's a coin for everyone.  its the fucking slogan jeezus.
no.
this is like voting yes or no on "hey lets do something, anything at all!"

you're better off looking at the newest clone: spectrumcoin.  they have all those fancy, hyped algos, and a low reward.

The last thing this coin needs is to change anything.  What it really needs is some manpower to help finish the projects that are already underway.

there is nothing us devs can do. if this is a fake share attack then that needs to be handled by poolerino. they seem to be the only pool with the issues on sha256 and by default they shouldnt have that issue anyway. stratum uses the diff1 recommended by luke-jr (one of the bitcoin devs) and afaik so does NOMP

Ahmed

This.

The attacks aren't myriad specific at all, it's a matter of exploiting pools/stratums/algos.  I'm fairly certain that I've seen this happen on another coin that launched recently as well.  As Ahmed is saying, it shouldn't be happening if people are following suit with the fix that stopped the litecoin exploit years ago.  The question is whether or not this exploit is occurring because of old stratums, or some new hack we don't know about yet.

The silver lining is that this exploit is happening with myriad.  People will only exploit coins that they either want to try and kill (competition), or they want to horde (cause it's going to be lucrative longterm).  That being said, I don't believe that this exploit is having an effect on the price, it's the profit switching multipools that are driving it down.

Do we have a Myriad rich list yet?

I know multipools have been present on the scrypt algo, but there is another issue with the sha algo which I cant figure out.

For weeks now there is a 40TH/s miner on the poolerino pool, now thats way more speed than all the sha miners and all the pools as well.

What doesnt make sense is that this sucker never hits any blocks, I mean he should be hitting far more than anyone else but he never does, yet I can confirm he does get a piece of the pie when his pool hits a block.

Now I dont know if this is a multipool or an individual or some game played by the pool operators but none of this makes sense to me.



contact mike, it's most likely a fake share bug in the stratum implementation.


Im guessing thats the dude behind the pool.  Sent them an email.  Hopefully its something innocent.


naa its not possible. its been tested against that bug numerous times. that looks to me like a block witholding attack. (the same one that btcguild and eligius got hit by)

So how do you stop something like that.  Cant believe no one noticed it, especially the miners on that pool.

fake share has been a big bug for a long time as we know and never resolved by dev and pool owners, miner could earn MYR coins always less than 75% value shown on the statistic data of pools, sometimes less than 50% of the statistic data. And now multipool problem raises, seems that Scryt and SHA algo had more blocks more than others, this is unfair to MYR miners who believe Myriad [1st Multi-PoW] with high innovations, but MYR becomes an unfair coin for losing balance to five alogs. Dev could you please face those problems and fix them?


incorrect im the current dev of python stratum mining and zone117x is the dev of node stratum mining. neither stratum software is exploitable on sha256 or scrypt. theyre tried and tested algorithms. im 100% this is a block holding attack. (the litecoin network had a fake diff attack during mid 2013 where it was fixed by 1 of the ltc devs "pooler")

I've seen the same phenomena on suchpool's sha-256 pool as well.  They're running mpos like poolerino.  Hopped on irc a few weeks ago and talked to the pool op.  It turns out some dude was faking shares and not submitting blocks.  He had over 60% rejected shares IIRC.  The pool op said he was going to update their stratum and banned the user, but he got away with about 20k myr/day from the others that were mining there.  Any pool ops reading this please take a look at your pools and see if there is anything fishy going on!

Ahmed, I do understand that your stratums are quite well tested, I actually run zone117x's nomp myself for my soloing as well.  But these attacks seem to be happening on MPOS pools. 

TBH I'd prefer is this just a recurring stratum attack rather than block withholding, which could have much farther reaching implications, especially with merged mining on the horizon.

Ok, so we lost the dev, thats not good.

oh, you!

You can troll much better than that and we all know it Wink

Can someone help me setup a node to solo mine sha256?  I'm on a pool now but have only received about %50 worth of the blocks i've found.  I'll pay a 25k bounty.

I'm currently running an asic rig thats running cgminer on a raspberry pi.  I've gathered from looking on reddit that I can create a node on another machine and then point my asic to it like i would for p2p pooling.  Is this correct?  How would I go about setting up a node?

Thanks!
