Tao sync update time https://dashtalk.org/threads/dash-versus-bitcoin-versus-darkcoin-wallet-update-benchmark-times.4479/#post-61751Short summaryTotal time for entire Dash (0.12.0.49) blockchain = 35 minutes and 2 seconds Average Tao sync ratio from 2 samples = 0.1517 sec / hour% Tao sync improvement from earlier Tao ratio (v0.11.2.23) = (0.2389 - 0.1517 ) /0.2389 = + 36.5%Degree of Tao improvement compared to darkcoin (0.11.1.25) = (1.345 / 0.1517) = 8.86 times faster Average Tao bitcoin to Tao dash ratio = (4.144 / 0.1517) = 27.32 times faster than bitcoin(best tao / tao ratio = 4.144 / 0.1345 = 30.8 times faster)Average Tao Monero to Tao Dash ratio = (14.22 / 0.1517) = 93.7 times faster than Monero(best tao / tao ratio = 14.22 / 0.1345 = 105.7 times faster)Edit: Notice that in March we were only 2.4 times faster than bitcoin, the gap is widening..

While updating the Tao ratio, I noticed the laws of physics are not being obeyed (i.e. size of blockchain has grown by 5 months but the download is quicker) 27th March,2015 : Total Dash blockchain (v0.11.2.10) = 42 minutes 28th August,2015 : Total Dash blockchain (0.12.0.49) = 35 minutes and 2 seconds Download time improvement from Dash (v0.11.2.10) to Dash (v0.12.0.49) = +16.6 % I just gotta redo the timings just to make sure the Tao ratio is what it appears to be, because hard to believe

Guys, for a pseudo donation address, I made a mistake when trying to pair an address(and same private key) from the cold wallet and another hot wallet in order to get the masternode payments safely without starting the cold wallet. I was wrongly looking at the change address from the payments and thinking that this could generate a safe private key to share with a hot wallet but really the private key is the same as the 1k Dash.
There is still a way to use this method but a code change is needed in order for the masternode payments to go to another (none 1k) address in the cold wallet and then share that private key with the hot wallet, effectively what was the donation address is now a cold wallet address so bad security and hijacking should be impossible.
Thats as close to a workaround as I can get, maybe I've overlooked something, anyone ?

v11 still receiving payments?
be careful if you run a V11 wallet without upgrading, I stepped onto a fork earlier even though the wallet was synced, V11:- "SPORK_1_MASTERNODE_PAYMENTS_ENFORCEMENT" : 1458123247, "SPORK_3_INSTANTX_BLOCK_FILTERING" : 1458123247, "Unknown" : 1444217600, "Unknown" : -1, "Unknown" : 1440246078, "Unknown" : 0

Anyone else mining at xpool.ca x11 returns have gone to pot lately.. GEtting about 0.1 dash for 16KH over 24 hours... Was getting almost 1 dash a few weeks ago... I am still getting 0.2 Dash every day for a R9 290 tri-x and 0.165 Dash for a R9 280X from the highly optimized amd exe at http://dashminer.com/I can't fault him, get same guaranteed payment every day, network hash rate does not seem to make a difference

Nice to see the numbers match here : masternodes =2524
Onward and forward to 3000 active masternodes !
whats happened to the other 500 masternodes, they can't all be waiting to buy back in, why so slow ?!

Now the header on the crash dialog reads "INPAG" and the text reads "runtime error 424".
I'm trying to run it on a Win 7 32bits. Same .bat
I'm sorry, but I don't believe there is a miner for a 32 bit system. You can, however, install a linux 64bit distribution as a duel boot and run a miner if you need to. Unless your hardware can't run it. But if it's built the last 5 years or so (maybe longer now) it should work. I found out one that is working on win32 https://github.com/tpruvot/cpuminer-multi/releases/download/v1.1-multi/cpuminer-multi-rel1.1.zipI made a .bat to run with my other altcoins: cpuminer-x86.exe -a x11 -b 127.0.0.1:4048 -o STRATUM -u USER.WORKER -p PASS -t 1 wrong .bat , you are using a solo mining own address and the port is wrong anyway. I will answer this at dashtalk..

What can I do if everytime I try to run miner it stop responding and closes? I make sure that I use the corresponding miner for my CPU. Thanks.
you should give more info, what os, what cpu, what miner ? atleast Sorry, my mistake. Info: OS: Windows 8 CPU: Intel Core i5-2410M - 2.30GHz Miner: DarkCoin cpu-miner - minerd-corei7-avx.exe (v1.3) Hope it helps. You still haven't given us the .bat or confi settings. Btw, put a 'pause' at end of .bat file and you stay on the window.

Since there are no ASIC's, could someone please calculate the cost of how many 290x's + electrical bill to get over 50GH/s of mining power?
Done! Funnily enough, I've got a wattmeter attached to a R9 280X nearby Total power used by computer =270 watts GPU Power used with wolf0's bins = 142 watts hash rate =6 megahash GPU watts per megahash = 142 / 6 = 23.7 watts per megahash so total GPU mining power (not including any running boards, and A/C) 50,000 megahash * 23.7 watts = 1.18 megawatts =1183 kilowatts cost of 1 kilowatt per hour ~ $0.15 total cost of GPUs per hour = $177 total cost of only the GPUs per day = $4248 Depends how you look at these attacks even if they are feasible because I seem to remember the stress tests on bitcoin revealed that a blockchain spam attack of around $2400 per day would basically backlog bitcoin transactions so much that it would be unusable for hours. Edit: dont forget to factor in the cost of the GPU's which at 6 meg each would mean 8333 GPUs costing around $2.2 million !!

I must say, I've fallen in love with Poloniex.
By large and far the best interface in cryptoland. It is certainly not the same Poloniex as before, blatant XMR promoters/pumpers. Charts are as amazing as when they launched, but now everything else is just superb to be. Support is fantastic, trollbox completely neutral with extremely helpful moderators, everything works flawlessly, night mode is beautiful, layout is perfectly simple and clear. With Bitfinex delisting, I really hope volume picks up over there, I absolutely hate Cryptsy.
You have a case of Stockholm syndrome. You'll be selling Dash and buying XMR in about 9.24 days from now. LOL, actually, it's good to hear because I also hate cryptsy and was using Bitfinex, but now feel lost. I might try Poloniex again, haven't been there since, what was it? March '14? Oh man, I don't remember my login, LOL! I have got to defend Cryptsy, from the beginning they have been a stable exchange to rely on while many others have fallen down hard(mintpal anyone?) They are the only exchange of note for some of the more obscure coins, and while it could be said that Big Vern adds too many, as least it gives a chance to a small coin that is struggling to get known. Also they now have dollar/btc, which props all the other alt markets up, I don't remember anyone ever losing anything with them either, so I don't get why you would say that you 'hate' them ?

Great work bug zapping for the core team Am presuming everyone has a mandatory rebuild database/abort option at the startup. I didn't have to, it was just a bug fix, no new protocol or anything?? When I ran the windows zip file, I was not given the option, it had to rebuild, thats all. Good morning (or good night, is it)

Bitcoin 1-week chart now looking distinctly un-pretty. As if it's headed back to zero from whence it came. Could get carried anywhere from here in a storm of asset revaluation. Slammed to the floor. Booted to high heaven. Who knows.
2 icky problems, much bitcoin is traded in China and dependent on their trade, secondly there are 3600 bitcoins mined a day by hungry miners and if they ain't holding then they are dumping, meaning that there must be $774,000 sunk into the bitcoin every single day to maintain equilibrium, could be that the dotcom boom mark 2 is running out of juice as the shares reach their pumped up zenith and subsequent decline...

Worldwide equity plunge gathering steam. They're now saying the Dow's going to open down 1000 points. French index now down 7.2% 8.2% and Mediteranean equities over 6% (that's after 6 and 7 percent losses last week).
One thing is way up, and thats the 'fear index' aka the VIX http://www.marketwatch.com/investing/index/vix/chartsCan you trade on the VIX ? It could be a good time to dump the fear.

Liquidity dried up around the world. Trading suspended on Nasdaq and S&P.
What are the implications of this? Post apocalyptic Mad Max scenario ? Could be that the reality of zero interest rates for the mega rich and connnected is finally kicking in. Its not all bad news though, facebook is down 10% Oil is a good indicator, and thats falling faster than auroracoin after first release, http://www.investing.com/commodities/crude-oil-streaming-chart

Hands up. Who hates 22+ minute blocks when you really need a quick one? lol...
First exchange to incorporate instantX coming online soon Oh man, that is just so cruel of you ... Thats nothing compared to the new and revised blockchain efficiency calculations that will be published shortly
