what is this coin for ? what it can give other coins won't ?
It improves the mining process securing the blockchain by making it more energy- and computationally-efficient, and more democratic. |

... guess you're stuck with JAVA unless you start mining with a Linux virtual machine.
Which should have at most a very minor impact on your mining performance |

15TB plotted so far. I'd solo mine with 3TB or higher. This coin is still young enough to solo mine, don't waste it pool mining especially while there still seems to be issues with pools. Be realistic while solo mining, don't get scared about not finding a block 6 hours in to solo mining and switch back to pool. Stick with it for a few days, you'll see that you're making more than if you were pool mining.
Could you please post your last hundred deadlines? I'm at about that size (13.6TB), and I'm a bit scared by how high the deadlines are, partly because I'm testing a customized plotter. No way I'd be getting blocks at the rate you've described without some incredible luck. But it could be a jump in difficulty. |

I've seen the same thing in my 1.1.1 wallet, it has a little window down in the corner saying it is downloading the blockchain, but it never makes any progress.
My guess is incompetent programming from the wallet maker.
Try installing 1.1.2. |

I can't decide if I should dump now to reduce the loss or just f*ck it, hold, and be a sucker bagholder...
You should dump. I'm buying over on c-cex. |

You don't have to tweet. They will add Burstcoin soon.
Why do you believe this? Not dubious, just interested. |

He means trust on the forum. lol.
Ah, got it. Thanks. :-) |

Thanks to bipben's advances with the GPU plotter, I'm at a point where disk bandwidth writing to the file is the bottleneck. Has anyone found a solution to this better than RAID0 or rewriting the plotter with some kind of buffered asynchronous I/O? Edit: If I measure the disk bandwidth directly, it seems like it's good enough. But if I point the plotter at a ramdisk or SSD or comment out the output command in the plotter source code, it's four times faster than the disk I actually want to plot to. Edit 2: I think my earlier bandwidth measurements were corrupted by some kind of buffer in linux. Seems to go very fast for the first gig, but not for a 4GB file. lap% dd if=/play/plots/0_10_15000_7500 of=/media/mnt3/output bs=8000k count=125;

Aww, no one gave me + trust for overseeing the BURST multipool fund =(
If you tell me what it means and how to do it, I probably will. I'm new to NXT. |

This is about 35% slower on a Titan Black. Edit: Actually, I'm getting better performance if I tweak the parameters. I'll discuss it more over on the forum. |

I've read the critiques in the whitepaper, and the annotations it summarizes. Have there been any responses to its questions, e.g., where did the constant ell come from? |
|
|

After issuing the last command, it just returns to a prompt... no additional output. I assume this means the plot files match.
(also I am mining and finding shares from the GPU plot as well) Thank you. The 121k nonces/min had me worried there. |

head -c `stat -c%s <n-path>` o-path | diff - <n-path> should work. Where o-path is the path to the old output, and n-path is the path to the new. Seriously though, I have no idea what you are requesting. [/quote] If you're still running a plot on the GPU, could you then try running one of the CPU plotters with the same parameters (address, nonce range, stagger size) for a few minutes and check that they match in the part created by the CPU plotter? Say the directory containing the GPU plotter output (the "plots" directory") is <GPU-path>, and the path to the CPU output is <CPU-path>. Could you then run this command in a terminal and report back its output? If they match, there should be no output. head -c `stat -c%s <GPU-path>` <CPU-path> | diff - <CPU-path> |

is it possible to use all GPU to plot ? Right now it only allow 1 device to plot for 1 instance, and 1 instance uses quite a bit of CPU. My rig can only use 2 GPU max. I am using 750 ti.
If you can get it to function usefully at all on a 750 Ti, I'll be very interested. |

WOOT! 121,000 nonces/minute! That's awesome! Can you please run it for a few minutes with the same parameters as the output from a different plotter? I think something like head -c `stat -c%s <n-path>` o-path | diff - <n-path> should work. Where o-path is the path to the old output, and n-path is the path to the new. |

This coin looks interesting. What's the most recent news on the team's development progress? There doesn't seem to be much activity on their github repository.

What changes the low value of deadline?? Staggersize, big plots or other??
If a computer is plotting, the mining is affected??
Stagger size has no impact. Plot size ought to be the only factor affecting the deadline, assuming everything's running smoothly. Mining is very cheap computationally, and plotting is fairly easy on disk bandwidth. The two processes shouldn't have much impact on each other. |

I have plotted a lot of TB now and want to mine for an other wallet i made.
Can i just RENAME my plot files with an other number in the file name and it works or do i need to replot all my files with my new wallet number in the gen?
