Gents, let's please avoid furthering the senseless noise brought up by the Inquisitive Troll^(TM).
I understand there's places where discussion of the gracious BCN scam artistry is on-topic, just not here.

Re: Translation efforts.
I have posted on the GetMonero forum volunteering towards a Portuguese translation. Would appreciate some help with understanding the translation framework or how to get started (if that's even a possibility at this stage).
The much sought after Chinese translation (and whatever needed funding) could/should be coordinated there as well. Not to take away from the discussion and interest shown by members here though...

I'm still expecting Vertoe to speak up and move cache forward. If there is a real community of people interested (as opposed to a handful of casual speculators), one can easily regroup.
The only negative impression I have with Vertoe (before going MIA), was that her creative/brainstorming process was not as inclusive as it could/should have been. Other than that, she looks to be a solid coder, and intentions were well laid out when taking over.

The fork that followed the takeover, actually shows neat resilience of the people around here. Big kudos to Singula for the code analysis and pushing the fix to github. There are clearly people around with ideas and the capability of improving cache. I do hope Vertoe is around to participate in that effort, but if not, the community will surely figure out a way to work things out.

@Vertoe: As you look to be still around (your BCT profile shows recent presence), how about stopping by the IRC channel for a chat? Your ANN proposed community meetings, and I doubt you'd like to have everything on your shoulders. Some coordination is probably all that is needed right now...

It would be nice if the dev actually explained what he thinks is going on, and what fixes he's been posting. Going by github history, all I see is the updated seed, and adding checkpoints. Whatever has been causing forks, will continue to cause forks, since nothing really has been changed...

Starting to look that taking a risk on a small rental for this was a total loss... If you need a hand, reach out on IRC and get in touch with another dev? I can certainly recommend an awesome one (Presstab - best PoS dev that there is, in my book).

Also, if you can post any details about roadmap or future plans, at least we'll all have a clue if it is worth spending (wasting?) any more time on this.

Good luck!

Or mine lol... I'm checking height, and I'm exactly on the same block as supernova (was 2104 just now).

Those still with trouble getting sync'ed, perhaps try this adding to ocminer's suggestion:

vertex.conf:
connect=148.251.41.117
connect=94.52.19.22
connect=74.77.15.47
connect=94.23.32.109
connect=71.239.145.217

In theory, this way, you connect exclusively with these peers. The downside of using connect over addnode, is that if these peers get saturated, your wallet will remain offline, since it is not attempting any other peers.

Good to see the dev is back around and troubleshooting this. I was thinking exactly the same as loco just earlier. 

In my case:

getblockhash 2000
000000000000005270ac4314bc6cf76c2145de9e2829f88d5026dff7eaf8b8b9

But did you try deleting all data in the vertex roaming folder (except the wallet), and using the vertex.conf with all the nodes I pasted above? It worked right away for me, no trouble at all. Remember that by deleting all data in the roaming folder, you are also clearing your peers, so that might help.

Yep, sorry about that. ocminer posted his peers shortly after my post, and I switched to his peers. In the process, my very last 3 stakes got orphaned. I suppose that some large weight moved around at the same time as I did, causing some people to get forked.  

Using the nodes that ocminer posted, I am fully sync'ed with supernova, staking, and got a minimum of 5 peers now. I had to delete my blockchain to get sync to succeed, due to those few last stakes that orphaned.

vertex.conf:
addnode=148.251.41.117
addnode=94.52.19.22
addnode=74.77.15.47
addnode=94.23.32.109
addnode=71.239.145.217
addnode=82.44.30.10
addnode=189.208.153.155

Alive and Staking here, got the following peers at the moment:

82.44.30.10
189.208.153.155

Looks to be that some node (or the main seed?) is acting up, but otherwise any peers talking to supernova should be on the main chain (and staking). On and Off I'll get more peers, but these appear to be the ones that stick around the most.
 
Happy Staking!

That is an old card, compute level 2.x. You'll need to search a few pages back, someone had recently posted details about the required version for such an oldie 
I'll give you option B though: get a newer card 

By repeating false enough times, it surely becomes true, no? 

This is of such absurd logic that it really get's comical. So you would feel safe to entrust your anonymity and investment privacy, over to an individual or group that holds the absolute power of turning your anonymity to shreds on a whim. A group that (going by your suggestion) favored deception over truth, privileged knowledge over fair and open/public access. Sweet.

Oh, crap, I got caught in a TrollTrap^(TM) again...

There's a never ending supply of motivated bad actors providing BCN with life support.
Adding another one to my ignore list... 

Do I read the graph correctly, that well past the 1 year mark, the premine still accounts for more than 50% of all coins in existence?
Unless there is some wide distribution scheme early on (ICO?), this looks like a really sweet deal, but just not for everyone, if you know what I mean ... 

Such a fat premine also holds the anonymity set hostage, unless I'm missing something. I'll avoid further comments as this project looks headed in a direction that voids my prior interest. Best of luck anyhow!

Throughout the readme file (the cudaminer one, not ccminer), you'll find some configuration examples.
The ideal settings are found through experimentation though, and autotuning with debug logging enabled. It's a bit of hard work, meaning, it really takes a while to go through all the possible settings, but yeah, that's how the best settings are discovered.

Those are the ideal settings for a 980 doing scrypt-jane:16 on Windows, AFAIK.

See how well you do with:

ccminer.exe -a scrypt-jane:16 -o stratum+tcp://pool:port -u User.1 -p x -L 16 -l t64x4 --interactive 0

That should reach you over 900h/s on Windows, depending on your clocks.
Linux does much better though 

If this tip helped you, do consider donating to Epsylon3/tpruvot, who made scrypt-jane available with ccminer.

Happy Mining!

I'm grateful for this new variety: The Inquisitive Troll^(TM)

Creating a new account for the sole purpose of portraying interest and curiosity, gracefully wording each question such that it introduces the very subtle possibility that: contrary to what all the quacking might have us think, it is not a duck. Seriously, well done. At least it is a step up from The Concerned Troll^(TM), that one has gotten boring... 
Carry on.

PS: It is a duck alright.

IF (and that's a big IF) all this posting about BCN had not a (not-so-well) hidden agenda...

Yeah. And what Vertoe had put forward, was a new mining logic, however one would call it, it would produce new coins just as PoW does today.
Picking up an abandoned coin for peanuts on exchanges, then taking over to drastically and immediately cut the total supply, would be a rather obvious scam... (I don't think that is the intention here, but what do I know...  )

Atualizado com informação do fork eminente, e novas versões de software!

@ Taiko3615:

This is SP_'s fork, not cbuchner1 (you posted an issue on the wrong ccminer fork @ github).
This fork is optimized for compute 5.0+ cards, compute 3.0 will probably not work for most algos, if it works at all.
Cuda 7.0 is known to break some algos, and is generally slower on the ones that do work.

Your best bet, if you really only have that hardware/cuda setup available, would be Epsylon3's fork. As I understand, Epsylon3 has been working on integrating Cuda 7.0, and also, his fork is generally more inclusive of older cards.

Good luck!
