I have a couple questions about the ANN post:

Quote
Total coins 90 billion
Interest on Proof of Stake:
Year 1: 25% | Year 2: 20% | Year 3: 15% | Year 4 and ongoing: 5%
4 confirmations per transaction means fast 2 mins confirmations
50 confirmations per ZEIT blocks
1% premine for ongoing development support, maintenance and distribution to community.

How long does the 5% staking go on? When is it expected to bump up against the 90B cap on coins?

Is the premine still under community control? Is it fully dumped? I guess 90M ZEIT is only like 50 LTC now, no huge deal, just curious...

i get the purpose of crb.. but look closely in calculation of the 2 picture something is off..

I think it's cause you changed the volume and the ask price (each by 10x), so the total btc is 100x lower than in the first picture, no?
3364  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Crypto Rush - Crypto to Crypto exchange on: November 29, 2014, 12:42:18 PM
what is the math in selling crb-btc why is it if you sell 1  crb btc  to 1 btc you get the correct math

...

but anything lower the total btc is only 10% of the right amount

...

The idea is that if you hold the crb-b, eventually you will get paid back 1 btc per crb-b that you hold, but you can also trade them on the market for btc immediately, and just get whatever btc someone else is will to pay for them.

It's certainly not a detailed technical differentiation, but here is a gif I just finished for sylviaplathlikestobake's art contest that compares btc, drk, and xmr: https://i.imgur.com/evtcybH.gif

Please let me know if you think there are any factual errors in the gif.


Well made gif! Protip though, you should upload to gyfcat in future, they optimise it as a .webm animation so it's much smoother and smaller (2mb vs 7mb). Not sure how easy it is to embed though.

Thanks for the tip. I'm gonna make a few changes in the next week or so, and next time I'll use the gyfcat Smiley

KnC has not implemented Scrypt N in the Titan's firmware yet, at least not officially. They are still struggling to get the Titan mine anything but Litecoin in a decent manner. This information can be easily found on KnC's forum. If anybody claims they are mining Vertcoin with a Titan they must be better software engineers than KnC's. I strongly doubt it.

I dunno, just going off what this guy said. I don't doubt that Bitmain will be shipping working miners next month tho...

How are you friends ... there any positive news


or the calm before the UP storm

It seems to be the calm before the storm. Mining rigs are kicking in and we're all ready for what's next to come.

Speaking of mining rigs, I was chatting with someone in #vertcoin on Freenode a few days ago, and they were upset about the algo change because they've been mining vert with their KnC Titan, and saying how it's much more profitable mining vtc with it compared to ltc Shocked

I don't think there's too many Titans out there, but the Antminer L1 is supposed to start shipping in December, so the algo switch couldn't come a moment too soon, as I don't expect Bitmain to have the same delays and excuses that KnC's been using, and the L1 is also supposed to be able to hash scrypt-n as well.

Not errors exactly, but the relationship between stealth and ring sigs is a bit tighter than suggested. They work synergistically. For example, ring sigs also help protect the privacy of balances because it can't be determined if an output has been spent, only possibly-spent.

Nice work!
Thanks smooth, glad I didn't muck anything up too significantly Smiley



very nice work!

IMHO the brown in the end is not a very nice and friendly color... but thats just my impression.
I was going for more of an orange-ish color to be like inverted from the monero logo, but I agree, it's pretty brown. I'll see if I can prettify it a bit and repost it later...

@bitfreak

Hi,

I tried to mine XCN on amazon ec2 GPU instance on ubuntu but I'm stuck

When I type the "make" command it produces an error and I think it's because cuda as I already made my way through mining with cpu although I know nothing about linux "Just connect with putty and copy/paste" but I was able to get the commands necessary from other coins mining tutorials and adjust it to work with xcn at 1gh.com

So it'll be great if you made a tutorial on that or just how to install nvidea drivers and cuda on ubuntu

Thanks Smiley

Hey Ahmed,
Here is a guide I set up for Monero: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=653467.msg8919354#msg8919354
There's a public AMI called XMRminer2 (at least in the Oregon region), that already has cuda setup for the cryptonight cuda miner.
Maybe you'll find this useful...

Betteridge's law of headlines is an adage that states: "Any headline which ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no." It is named after Ian Betteridge, a British technology journalist, although the general concept is much older. The observation has also been called "Davis' law" or just the "journalistic principle". In the field of particle physics, the concept, referring to the titles of research papers, has been referred to as Hinchliffe's Rule since before 1988.

Can someone help me with the wallet I am stuck on 208393...just tried downloading newest version still stuck on it

As far as I know they might be loading the same block chain from my roaming folder...

I think maybe you got on the wrong fork with an old version, and then updated. Not 100% sure, but I think you might want to just wipe everything in your data directory, and then download the latest bootstrap blockchain and put it in there.

So just delete the stuff in my roaming folder and put the bootstrap in there? yeah i think you're right about the forking thing

Yea, if you use default directory it's C:\Users\youruser\AppData\Roaming\bitmonero; just delete (or move) everything out and replace it with the latest bootstrap, and sync from there.

Not sure if it's been posted here (and I haven't tested it myself), but Google Cloud is offering a $300/2 month trial of their cloud compute services.

You do realize there's other manufacturers out there, along with some private ones, right? Whether AT has anything hashing away, they're not the sole contributor to nethash.

Considering Bitmain is supposed to start shipping their L1 scrypt miner next month, I might guess they're doing some testing as well.

The new algorithm has protection for multi pools, they will not be able to mining and sell their coins, so that only people who believe in the coin will be able to mining and will not sell all coins

What? Elaborate on this. How can a hashing algo know to restrict any hashing power, regardless of where it come from? Sounds pretty delusional but I'd love to hear why you believe it.

I think he believes that because for a time, VTC will be the only Lyra2 coin. He fails to see that multipools can also switch algorithms based on profitability...

Yessir. If VTC becomes highly profitable again, you can bet your sweet ass multis will find a way to incorporate it. It's absurd to state something like that thinking that will always be the case when more often that not, it has been been proven wrong in crypto.

Yea, I don't use sgminer5, but I'd guess it would be pretty trivial to add lyra2re to the autoswitcher part of the program.

Have you guys seen this video of the BBR project ? I think the first clip is far superior to the others

BTW, what is MR Zoidberg working on these days? KB Fees?

I'm pretty sure that it's Dr. Zoidberg  Wink
