Hi,
Any chance someone can compile a wallet to work on Mint 19.1 64bit please.
I know nothing about Linux, and have tried for 2 days to run the compiled files, and to build from source, but too many errors for me.

MINT is compatible with Ubuntu software repositories, so what errors are you currently getting ? Have you tried installing the math repositories for Gapcoin and/or the tool kits etc., ... Still not 100% sure if we might have access to the original Gapcoin repo. on Github ... Opening a 'cloned' version is required for continued development. I can clone it and allow developers or so can anyone else, so at this juncture its really down to who is present here on the forum. Hi, Thanks for trying to help, but as i said, i have literally zero linux experience, so have no idea what "math repositories" are. I have started from a clean install using Ubuntu 16.05, and 18....cant remeber, the LTS one, and tried both ways 1) https://github.com/gapcoin/gapcoin/releases/download/v0.9.2-rev2/gapcoin-rev2-linux.zipThis fails with allsorts of lib errors, too many to mention here 2) git clone https://github.com/gapcoin/gapcoin.gitcd gapcoin git submodule init git submodule update ./autogen.sh ./configure make make install # optional This fails on autogen, and then configure I have gone down the notes and tried to install each dependency Build requirements: sudo apt-get install build-essential libtool autotools-dev autoconf libssl-dev libgmp-dev libmpfr-dev for Ubuntu 12.04 and later: sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev For Qt 5 you need the following: sudo apt-get install libqt5gui5 libqt5core5 libqt5dbus5 qttools5-dev qttools5-dev-tools libprotobuf-dev libqrencode (optional) can be installed with: sudo apt-get install libqrencode-dev I think i then got ./autogen.sh to work and ./configure, told me i needed to add --with--incompatibe-bdb and then still had missing stuff at the end. Oh and i think boost was one of them So finally i gave up...sorry |

Minerja,
Check the issues tab on Github.......
Hopefully you can get it working, however I suspect without a couple of developers or so it won't happen. It is mostly boost errors so it won't be a problem for a dev to clone and fix simple really most of it is trivial to fix even the SSL to 1.1, but Trisquel is the best operating system for mining anyway so no need to move forward yet. Trisquel works due to still using boost 1.58 which is key as well as using SSL-Dev 1.0.2 which is supported up to 2020 but it is possible GNU-Linux might still maintain SSL 1.0.2 instead of switching. (I don't know)
However for now, TRISQUEL.INFO operating system is the current up to date DEFAULT Linux miner for Gapcoin. DEFAULT BY DESIGN INSTEAD OF DEFECTIVE BY DESIGN.
Defective by Design is a GNU side project to patch holes in the Defective By Design mentality of Linux Operating systems.
Trisquel furthermore is far superior to Ubuntu in many ways which I posted previously on this forum
HTTPS default for operating system updates ect........
Use my signature links for compilation. Everything is there.
RUN FREE IS THE TRISQUEL MOTTO, TRISQUEL IS DEFAULT BY DESIGN
Hi, erm, Thanks for this tip I wiped a hdd, downloaded a dvd image of TRISQUEL, installed it to said wiped drive hmmm First i could hear a weird distorted voice, which i soon realised was a guy telling me which icons my mouse was hovering over, then he started reading out the names of each icon. Then he started to read out the terminal i opened, oh, and then the webpage...hmm, i think you get it. Second, the default install was in 640x480, so i couldnt actually see half of the controls. I managed to update software...reboot..still 640x480. I have a 1060 in there, which is normally auto recognised. Any way having spend about 2 hrs trying to find a way (in 640x480) to install some gpu drivers, i gave up. Thanks J |

Hi,
Does anyone have a compiled QT and Daemon wallet that will work on LinuxMint19 please.
I have tried to compile from source, but fails....
Perhaps I can build it. 32 or 64 bit? 64 bit would be great. Thanks This is yacoin-qt, try it out: http://yacoin.net/yacoin049Mint19_x64.tar.gzI've used Linux Mint 19 Tara Cinnamon VirtualBox image from here. Fonts don't look too good, but it seems to be working. Hi, Thanks for this. I couldn't get the osbox thing working...so i have just finished installing LM19.1 on a usb stick, seems to work fine. Tried your wallet...didn't read the readme file first....duh, so failed, now all working, already synced to 4.7%. Much appreciated. Will see how it goes. J |

Turtlecoin has never been a CPU only minable coin, still is not. You can GPU mine it. Currently I'm CPU + GPU mining it. It's more than a year old, devs are very active, >400 forks and counting.
Well, that sucks. While GPU mining is great for those who have high-end graphic cards, it's not suitable for the average person. CPU mining is much more accessible to anyone around the world, resulting beneficial towards the decentralization of any cryptocurrency. Upon researching different PoW coins, I've concluded that only two mining algorithms are easily mined with CPUs than GPUs or even ASICS. Such algorithms are M7M and yescrypt. Magi uses the M7M algorithm for mining, which it's extremely easy to mine with any CPU. On the other hand, we've got Cryply (CRP) which uses yescrypt and it's highly accessible by average CPUs. The most interesting one is Magi, since it has a mechanism that lowers the block reward the higher the hashrate on its blockchain network. Additional security against 51% attacks is implemented, via the use of PoS. With Magi's unique algorithm, big miners cannot join the network resulting in greater decentralization by giving the power back to the small miners or the average person. Nonetheless, I believe that the hottest CPU-only coins to mine right now would be Magi, Cryply, and Hodlcoin. Just my thoughts  I could be wrong, but last time i checked. If you won virtually every Hodlcoin block each day, i think you struggle to make $1 a day, and Magi is in a right mess. No leadership, multiple forks, pools up and down like yoyo's. Most original Magi miners left last year, and now a few bigger miners have it it, again, virtually impossible to hit $1 a day. Prob best to stick with cryply. J |

Which mining tools I can use to mine the Electra coin, with Nist5 algorithm?
I have never mined coins with nist5 algo.
None. POW was over many months ago. POS only now. |

.......
Back to GPU mining but that quote is back 2 pages so here's a blank one  So, while I first want to express jealousy about free el. and the hardware apparently also at hand... the rest of the world works by financial return of investment rules and is bound by el prices and investment needing to be made out by themselves (and not their boss). So for this next part I don't care if you have a full Mhs, GPU-favoured is not defined by the absolute hashrate you get. To be more clear, the cost of that 1x GTX 1080 is twice a bare-bone 1700 setup (comparison ~600 vs. ~300, both can be cheaper if you're lucky with the deals...) and then even before I OC that Ryzen setup, I have headroom on the EL consumption. Now that 35 khs is interesting, because the last time I heard that value it was for a 1080 Ti and not a standard 1080 but, let's assume I'm wrong as I don't have that card and you get 35 Khs on it. That still means your 1080 + system overhead is marginally better than the 1700 setups. 1080 - 230W + 10Wsys (assumed 6x GPU on 1x 60W system overhead) - 35 khs@240W@600 2x R7 in mild OC - 2x 120W - ~32 khs in native linux at barely any OC - 32 khs@240@600 I call that on par, especially as I know I can push the two R7's past that 35 khs if I OC them to 4.0Ghz and whatever extra and run a clean linux. So in your free el situation I can do 36-38 khs@600 vs. your 35@600 (yes 18~19 khs on a Ryzen if you tweak the shit out of it and don't care for the whistling steam engine it becomes). I don't recommend it, but to just point out free el is working against your case. Now, then ROI comes by for a second installment. The two R7 setups have a much higher second hand value than the 1080 after 1 year of usage, although Nvidia is currently helping with their horrible marketing strategy to extend the value a lot , with two systems a much lower risk of loss of return is as well in play. Selling two systems for 200 min. after a year isn't that hard where 400 for a used GPU for mining becomes harder (again, that's the normal rate of price loss for GPU's which Nvidia is influencing, yet I can get them at 350 right now...). So for any person buying, running and mining URX solely, that GPU setup isn't that favoured in hash per watt and higher in risk in investment. At best, GPU is on-par and I would suggest you enjoy the hash while it allows GPU's to get any. And yes there is also AMD GPU... which is so great we do not go any further into explaining this... (guess what I got....) i stopped mining this coin, moved onto Elicoin which i must say is also a hard coin to mine but not as hard as URX, for URX its not worth it. Like i said in an above comment, just wait for the coin to tank again and pick some up. I originally wanted to prove that the coin was GPU mineable, so is EVERY coin out there, i mean it too. Someone has a GPU miner for every so called " cpu only " coin. i know because i have all the miners that do it. Yespower, YesScrpt16/32, Argon2D, whatever, its GPU mineable. Hell it works reverse too, i CPU mine ravencoin, veil, genx, wavi..and GPU mine them too when i feel like it. I just dont feel like beating up on my 1080 anymore. Good write up tho! "Someone has a GPU miner for every so called " cpu only " coin" i know because i have all the miners that do it Probably true....but take Argon2D for example, it has taken 3 years for that miner to become available, and even then most gpu miners, only over Argon2 for Credits/dynamic/Uraniumx, they dont cover all variants of Argon2d The main point with gpu mining, is its much easier to scale....i know you can to put together say 8 x 1800x, or 8 x Threadripper rigs, but by the time you got 8 x mbs/cpus/ram/ssd/psu, etc, its not just the cost and efficiency, but the space it all takes up, so even if gpu is only as efficeint as cpu, the scalablity is so much easier....the other side is there are already HUGE gpu farms, so the second a gpu miner comes out, they can divert 10, 100, even a 1000 1080tis at a coin. That to me is the main issue when someone develops a gpu miner, cos that is exactly what they do, then when they realise its not worth it, usually within hrs to days, they move on, leaving the diff so high that the coin is effectively dead. I digress, back to your point, yes, someone can develop any form of miner (cpu/gpu/fpga/asic, even hdds) to solve any given algo given enough time and effort. Thats why i believe the very best coins should only ever be mined thru the wallet....so pools, no external miners, nothing. That way at least you have to have 1 pc per wallet. Stopping that wallet running on a virtual pc also helps to keep cloud mining in check.... (think drm). |

Shitcoin...
Even I took a look at your GitHub, very low activity. You've done something in April and November. Do you have a working product?
And if it is cloud mining, 90% it is scam...
Wow, Who are you, and who asked your opinion... Is that really how you introduce yourself... "And if it is cloud mining, 90% it is scam..." have you even bothered to read any of this thread? This is a great little coin. If you don't like it, simple really, just move along |

Mining is simply too easy, anyone can do it. Since the barrier to entry is so low it became over saturated and made the profit margins razor thin.
Total rubbish...the technical side of mining might be easier than ever, but the cost of entry is the prohibitive part now. There was a time when any decent cpu and / or 1 single mid end gpu would yield good profits, but now, if you cant buy a 1080ti rig (or equivalent) there is basically no point starting, and dont know about you, but i dont have 5K sat around so i can buy a rig whenever i want...besides, if i did, there are much safer / more profitable ventures outside of crypto now. It's becoming polarized like never before...either "hobby mine" or "professional", the amateur part has completely gone... |

I think soon mining will be back with new 7nm GPU's/CPU's/Asics,
Just remember- going down from 12nm to 7nm for AMD meant "Same performance at half the power"- so just this will make mining much more profitable :-=).
You're missing the point entirely. Is not just the nanometers, or the efficiency, you have to consider the "whole", and the biggest problem at the moment is the value of the coins. Unfortunately, the idea of anonymous / decentralised / "give the banks the finger" has been blown out of the water. Yes, you can do all that with individual coins, but when you need to exchange to FIAT or virtually anything you now buy, needs "KYC", therefore the interest is rapidly diminishing. I can't see any reason why BTC will rise from the ashes...i think this is its new level, which against worldwide inflation, will diminish in value each year....BUT, hopefully i am completely wrong |

Here is a new link for an updated bootset: https://mega.nz/#!aUNnzSKI!YRKaNzclISx77HrFgRWL_-U2XCGyyHOIiUUSWhy8CCI. The other link was 4 months behind. With the old bootset, it took me about 30 hours to sync with an i5. It's definitely something that needs to be addressed in the near future. The issue is that it takes too long to perform the scrypt-chacha hashes, especially for lower end CPUs. I think a clever trick can be made to verify previous blocks without doing a chacha hash of each one. I don't think NFactor19 favors 1080tis at all. From what I've gathered, it favors CPU processing much more than any GPU. You can also mine YAC with a 1050ti, and the 1050ti has a low price point. Also, the power usage on GPUs are extremely low compared to other algos, which has a good value proposition for miners who want to roll back their power usage but still mine a coin profitably. Hi, No idea where you got those ideas from, but last time i checked, the price was 14 sats, or $ 0.001 a coin. Now a 1800x maxed out generates 1 block (1 coins) about every 1-3 days, so you make $0.01 every 1-3 days...a 1060 6gn pulls double the hash of the 1800x, for a similar power draw, so i stand by my comment. This coin is at NF19 is only for 1080ti guys who have very cheap power.....but actually, unless you pay zero for your power, its not even worth it to them. Don't get me wrong, i would love for this coin to succeed, but since it seems to be relying on only miners who dont pay for their power, then its already dead.... I have been looking for its total mineable coins, and i can't find that figure, at least if say it was limited to X 1000's of coins, it might be "rare" (like 42 coin, etc) but if this exact format i really dont see how it has a chance above the other 2300 crpyto coins out there. As i said i will keep throwing a little hash at it, but without a lowering of diff or a pool, it really is a dead cause....but, lets hear from the rest of the community, cos i have no idea whats right or wrong, so come on community, what suggestions do you have? Mine is randon NF factors from NF12 to NF17. (at least at NF12, cpu miners might get a block or 2) BTW, if you are mining more that 1 block a day on a regular basis, please tell me how, cos i maybe, its just me (i'm in the UK, and sometimes lag over here kills solomining and even with 2-3 times the entire nethash, you still dont win blocks)....but ideally i dont see any point in mining any coin that generates less that $0.1 a day, when my power costs to do that are generally $2-5 a day (depends on algo, etc), it makes far more sense to simply buy the coins....i know thats not popular, buts its a simple truth. As for the chain, well, it literally needs 1 seednode and 1 miner on a celeron, so long as "someone" mines it, with even the lowest possible hash, the chain will be absolutely fine. As for listing it, have you tried Yobit? I know their rep sometimes isnt the greatest, but i use them a lot, and if you take the rough with the smooth, overall, especially for "older" coins like this, they can be very useful....just an idea.

Hi, Biggest reason this coin wont get on an exchange, is the wallet. I have tried this coin so many times now, but saw this latest post and thought lets give it 1 more shot. Downloaded 0.4.9, (full blockchain version), followed all instructions to the letter....wallet opens withing 20-30 seconds (a vast improvement) BUT...even thought i have 6 connections, a very fast pc, and very fast connection, i started with over 7000 blocks to download, and 24 hours on, i still have 6400 blocks to download. This has always been the major issue....at this rate it will be over a week (if not 2) before i sync and can even start to mine it. Until this is fixed, miners let alone exchanges cannot accept this coin. I have nearly 1000 coins / wallets from 2013 to present day, and this is up there with the very worst for syncing. If anyone can help speed it up, please let me know. That said, the other thing which i think is keeping it from exchanges, is the double edged sword....NF19 Yes it makes it quite unique, but it also rules out virtually every miner...who wants to chuck a very fast pc using a ton of power, to not even get 1 block a day. NF19 stuffs ASICS, fine, but it basically means this is a coin only for the 1080ti rig guys, so its only for the rich....but even then, its block reward and value are so low, thats its hardly worth them pointing a rig at it. To open up the miner base, i suggest dropping to at least NF17, maybe lower, and having at least 2 pools. (actually better to have NF change randomly from say NF14 to NF18) Do that and i think it could be a very very good coin. I'll throw a weeks worth of hash at it, if i ever get it to sync. J |

this miner is a bunch of crap and does NOT work. IS THERE ANOTHER VERSION AND IF SO, PLEASE PROVIDE THE LINK WHERE I CAN GO TO FOR A CLEAN DOWNLOAD where the VERSION ACTUALLY DOWNLOADS AND WORKS PROPERLY
Wow, great INTRO there. The link is on page 1. Have used this miner in the past with no issues. Would you like to be a little more specific with what coin you are mining? What Algo? What pool? What exactly are you struggling with? Perhaps then we can help you. J |
|
|
|
LOL.
Fair enuff.
No point anyone else mining it.
I'm guessing even with all that you're only mining about $3 a day?
J
i support this coin from first day, i don't need profit. How's about dropping some hashrate and lettting others share some blocks? Then we can all held support the coin. Not much support if its a 1 man band. |

|

WOW,
What cpu are you using?
Is that simply from "setgenerate true -1"
I am using Ryzen 1700 / 16GB ram / ssd and lucky to mine 4-5 blocks a day (Best result so far), sometimes its only 1 block a day.
Impressed, but even more confused as to why i cant earn anything.

76 cores of Intel Xeon E5-2660 v4 LOL. Fair enuff. No point anyone else mining it. I'm guessing even with all that you're only mining about $3 a day? J |

Hi,
Thanks for the assist.
Tried the crt method for 24 hrs....no blocks
Tried gapminer 4.1 no params for 24hrs...no blocks
Tried wallet directly, 5 block in 24hrs, so no idea why the others are so crap, but the wallet works.
Only thing is, need 1000 coin, or 200 blocks a day, just to earn $1.
Seems pretty pointless mining. (unless someone comes up with a much better miner)
Better to buy and hodl
J
i try crt miner too. Two days no blocks, switch to RCP mining and all ok )  WOW, What cpu are you using?

I registered this exchange a few years ago.
but never made any transactions there, I forgot to check the verification.
