Hey guys, the faucet seriously needs a large refill.. http://burstfaucet.com/

 Reward is also changed to 2, from 10

hi i sent 200 coins. i have only just got set up and thats half my mining earnings so far. hope it helps Smiley

Thanks Smiley

You might want to put a cooldown timer on it so somebody doesn't drain it...
Yeah..

Added 20 min cooldown

Faucet is up!

http://burstfaucet.com

In high need of donations, I don't have much to give Sad

Gives out 10 BURST. If anyone knows how to reduce fee, then I'll probably lower the payout

Cool, did you pm the dev to post this on the OP?
Nope, will do it

Great!  Smiley Smiley

I'll just 50 to BURST-6BS8-PJDA-MG93-CUA82 - can you verify it works?

Yeah, it's received. Tested the faucet with own address, and it pays out as well.

EDIT: 10 -> 2; running out too fast

I want to try mining this coin...but I think I better start in http://burst-pool.cryptoport.io/ without trying solo.
But I am required to have 1 BURST first...
Can anyone help me out?
BURST-MUK2-RG8T-343G-6BHSP

thats why we need faucet, i will make it soon... ah... not that sooner

PM me if you need hosting

I'm trying to use the Linux plot generator which folder I have on an external NTFS hard drive, but when I type ./plot it gives me a "Permission Denied" error does anyone know how to fix this? Anyone know what might be causing the problem? I tried using "sudo" and "sudo su" with no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated


Use ntfs-3g, not kernel ntfs. kernel ntfs is read only

Let the plotting commence

can be done with AWS on amazon
free for some gb and some hd space ?

It can, but AWS is expensive.

how much for the 1 tera?

just before you announced the update my miner started with cant get info from wallet even though I have wallet opened in IE and running.  I then updated and it still says the same thing???

Yeah, same problem here. You mining on the pool as well, I assume?

what is compression rate?


Protip: Store your plots on BTRFS with LZO compression. Increases amount of plots you can save, and increases your r/w speed. My drive is rated for 150MB/s, and I can do 180 MB/s of /dev/urandom

Any form of compression create some form of overhead, usually. The theory of LZO compression and BTRFS sounds nice, but has this been proven in a real environment? Can't just doing a RAID0 on a GPT volume be even faster?

As far as I can tell you can't directly see the ratio. However you can try and guess based off this info:

 user  ~  burstcoin  pocminer_pool_v1  plots  du -sh
244G    .
 user  ~  burstcoin  pocminer_pool_v1  plots  df -h
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda2       932G  338G  592G  37% /
 user  ~  burstcoin  pocminer_pool_v1  plots  sudo btrfs filesystem df /
Data, single: total=511.01GiB, used=336.45GiB
System, DUP: total=8.00MiB, used=80.00KiB
System, single: total=4.00MiB, used=0.00
Metadata, DUP: total=1.50GiB, used=553.58MiB
Metadata, single: total=8.00MiB, used=0.00
unknown, single: total=192.00MiB, used=0.00

Your plot files are most likely broken - or you have lots of overlapping nonces. You cant compress plot files (some scoops excluded) in a way thats fast enough to decompress!

All my plot files are stored on this drive, and I've been able to earn BURST from the pool. And I can decompress at 170 MB/s, limited by drive read speed. The LZO compression only does some basic compression, unlike lzma

Is BTRFS stable now? Supposedly it wasn't before, but I read that it's stable now. Plus it's a Linux filesystem, don't know if the average user would adapt to this well at the moment.

Plus if read and write speeds is really needed, a RAID0 is more simple to deploy and more readily accepted by all OSes with minor issues.

It's not officially stable, however many people have been running it for months with no problems. It is advised (as always) to have a backup of your important data

Hey guys, need some clarification here. When mining, all the plot files you have are read in order to check for shares, right?

Would this not then be HDD-speed limited, as eg. my drive does 150 MB/s, or 36 GB/4 minutes ?

Only one scoop is read for every block, which is 1/4096th of all the data. Thats 244MB/TB of data

yes, only 0.025% of plot data needs to be read every 4 minutes ... should be no problem for most kind of drives ... but there are limits ... thats correct. Your drive has no Problem at all!
Alright, thanks for clearing it up
