Show the address where I can donate to the development of the coin.
Hey jopara

I've been actively designing for Burst since I first saw the potential for it. First off I started with the new wallet UI + the new logo, along with the new OP (see the quote below). If you'd like to donate towards development you can donate some to : BURST-CKUG-2DLF-KNL6-EETXA. I'm not too sure about @burstcoin, address though.




@burstcoin: you are AWESOME!
@Wulfcastle: Thx for all that work, its so GOOD looking :-)

bouth of you should publish a burst address, so that we can donate!


This is my Burst address if anyone wants to donate for my work on the new Wallet UI, the new logo and the new OP. I've provided all my work free of charge and I don't ask for bounties, because improving BURST is a benefit to me as I see great potential for it. Donations are still welcome though Smiley - BURST-CKUG-2DLF-KNL6-EETXA


Also you can send some to uray who's working on the new block explorer and rich list for Burst : BURST-8E8K-WQ2F-ZDZ5-FQWHX

i am working on BURST block explorer, richlist, and mining stat



any suggested idea or feature i should be aware or try to implement ?

Wow, that is amazing  Shocked. Send me your address and I'll send a bounty your way once you've completed it.

EDIT : I'll send extra you way if you open-source it to GitHub Wink

wow, very nice of you my address BURST-8E8K-WQ2F-ZDZ5-FQWHX
its already on github while i am working on it https://github.com/uraymeiviar/burst-block-explorer

Just sent you 5000 Burst - TX ID : 17683438357941452148. Will send some more once you've completed work on it Smiley

Fix the damn 1.0.2 wallet so I don't have to copy and paste in my 12 word code every time.  It is too much effort.

I want it to remember my login. 

Right now, there are only full blocks found by miners, no partials as in a pool?

I've been mining for a day and a half now, have found no blocks from my 20 GB hard drive allocation.

Too much effort to copy/paste a password?  Roll Eyes

Also is there anyone who is capable of forking the NXT one-click-install client : http://nxtra.org/nxt-wallet/ and porting it to Burst? I'll be handing out bounties from my stash to those who can get it working with Burst. I don't think it would be too hard, the process would be the same as the NXT client, and the one-click-install client is also open source (you can view the source code via xcode).

Just bumping this to the new page.

5k from me as well. Smiley

I think it's really awesome that community members are working on this project by their own initiative. 5K from me!

Thanks for the donations everyone Smiley. I'll still be here designing for Burst.

What I'd really like to do next is create a front-end for POCMiner, kind of like GUIMiner, though coding isn't my expertise. If anyone can code a front end for POCMiner I can design the UI. PM me if anyone is interested in this task and is capable of it's requirements.

In my honest opinion, I think BTER are intentionally stalling this for some reason. I don't think they've integrated anything at all yet, from them it's just more and more delays.

First off, why would their lead developer be on a 12-hour trans-Atlantic flight in the first place. Secondly if the lead developer is really overseas, then sure he/she would have FTP access to BTER's servers, what's stopping him from integrating/testing Crypti at the airport or on the plane, there's usually satellite internet on most major carriers. I don't see why he has to physically be at BTER's offices to complete the integration.

This whole situation with BTER seems to be getting more and more fishy.

Current Richlist, NOT block finder list
http://pastebin.com/WkqQhQHU

The staggering is the number of nounces you compute before write everything into file, it depends on the ram available and thats all, you can choose any number you like and it will work unless you choose a number too high for the ram available, that's why 8096 is the limit, 8096 * 256kb = ~2gb

I've only used 512 to 2048 and trust me, i am mining fine.

Rich List isn't fully currect. I own just over 410 000 Burst and my address isn't anywhere on the list : BURST-CKUG-2DLF-KNL6-EETXA

Shit...lemme check.

Update:
Did you ever mine a block or buy in? Because if you havent mined any you would not be looked up...is there a public nxt block explorer i can setup for burst before i start parsing every transaction...

Didn't mine anything so far, bought all my coins.

Is anyone also getting the error "Error reading file: ......" when using mklink to another drive ?

my experience is that only mklink /h (hardlink) would work, but u can not use that on differnt drives ... (i know i have posted that before, cause i thought it would work) so on windows i found no other solution than running one miner instance on every drive! that will work! every drive will commit its own found deadlines for the same address!

Some of you may know me as the person behind the new Burst UI. I've also gone ahead and decided to redesign the Burst OP. I've decided to put emphasis on the stand-out features of Burst. Let me know what you think Smiley

Burst uses a new algorithm for proof of hdd capacity (POC) mining. Miners pre-generate chunks of data known as 'plots' which are then saved to disk. The number of plots you store is effectively your mining speed. Every block the miner will skim through the saved plots, and come up with an amount of time until it is able to mine a block if another block hasn't yet been found. After reading through the plots is complete, your hardware can idle until the block. The miner will be released a few hours before launch to give miners time to start generating plots.



Miners generate and cache chunks of data known as 'plots', which are divided into 4096 portions known as 'scoops'.
Plots are generated by taking a public address and a nonce, then hashing it, pre-appending the resulting hash, repeating the hash-pre-append cycle many times, and then hashing the whole thing and xor'ing the last hash with the whole thing.
Plots are staggered together so chunks of the same scoop number are together, then written to disk.
Each block has a generation signature which is derived only from the previous block's generation signature and miner, so it is difficult to manipulate.
When mining, the scoop number to be used for a block is derived from the generation signature and the block height, so the miner reads all relevant scoops(each plot will have 1 relevant scoop, and staggering allows for larger sequential read with less seeking) Only 0.024% of the stored data will need to be read each block.
The generation signature is hashed with each scoop. 8 bytes are taken from the hash, then divided by a scaling factor(inverse difficulty)
The resulting number is a number of seconds. If that many seconds passes since the last block without a new one, the address/nonce combination used to generate that plot/scoop is eligable to announce a new block.
The miner's hardware can just sit idle until either that time or a new block.
The address/nonce is included in the block as proof of eligability, and the block is signed by that address.

Technically, this mining process can be mined POW-style, however mining it as intended will yield thousands of times the hashrate, and your hardware will sit idle most of the time. Continuously hashing until a block is found is unnecessary, as waiting long enough will cause any nonce to eventually become valid.

Shoddily made flow chart of the general process. Does not include caching plot to disk and retrieving them:




Basic pool support
Improved pool support
BurstId authentication system

..  I'm buying up to 200K BURST, PM me with offers.
- hi, you can buy 83`000 BURST at 0.003474 BTC/1000FIM at decentralized Asset Exchange right now, and you can place some buy orders at your price as well.

So is it 3474 Satoshis per 1000 BURST?
Thats actually 347400 sats per 1k burst. Or 374.4 satoshis/burst. I think, it's too early for me to do math

So basically, 0.3744 BTC per 100K BURST?

Hey everyone

Just checking how's the new UI, I hope you all like it Smiley. Secondly I'm buying up to 200K BURST, PM me with offers.

can add the top block finders in wallet UI? i think it will be more convenient rather open an other website,,

I only helped with new the front-end UI, adding the top block finders would require back end work as well, that's not my area of expertise sadly, you'll have to ask burstcoin about that .
