61  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Trees24 situation explaining on: August 28, 2014, 06:56:04 AM
marada, thanks for your help.

What is the functionality of this tree trading platform? C-Cex merchant API works well for accepting cryptocurrency as payment for your products.

Maybe the point is to promote the tree trading platform. Your point was to use C-Cex API "under the hood" of the trees website?
Giving out mobile number - I admire dev's transparency efforts. I hope something great will grow (pun intended) from here.
62  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Crazy person's guide to Low-end laptop mining on: August 26, 2014, 03:18:44 PM
Intel GS45 is not really useful for mining.
I don't mind the results being poor - that machine can be delegated to mining...

Nvidia 8600 could possibly have some mining capabilities. Could you specify the exact model?
256 MB, MacBook Pro Santa Rosa 2009
However, that better machine would not be used for mining this year, but in the future...

The other point is using (nearly any) laptop for mining.
Please mind mining increases the system load and heat generation.
No laptop is really a good solution with some rare exceptions...

You simply shorten the lifespan of the internal components.
As an occasional 3D gamer, I am aware of this. Weaker machine has a row of dead pixels on display, so I don't mind it degrading further.
I have a very efficient laptop stand (around 25 cm of dead air space below), so cooling shouldn't be that big of a deal.

TL;DR: I am aware of limitations, but I'd like to mine on a laptop.

Do you like the ticker with last price on our website www.detk.pl ? The data is taken from Cryptoine.com - the first exchange.
It's nice, but one has to wait ages to sell or buy CDT  Cry

We'll add other exchanges later and make CDT/PLN, CDT/EUR, and CDT/USD, too. Wanna help? Any volunteers?
What needs to be done?
65  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN]Cassubian Detk (CDT) QUBIT PoW - first coin with market intervention on: August 21, 2014, 07:50:32 PM
The exchange rate is a result of some material and mental conditions, not a cause.
Couldn't agree more.
Can't wait for services being launched.

Not PoW, not PoS, but... PoTh!


Brain Mining - a method of PoTh (Proof of Thinking)

Worth adding to OP.

I really like all the stuff going on here.

Me too. Such a shame one has to wait for buy/sell order so long to come through  Sad

What Graphics Processing Unit you have in your computer?
Intel GS45 Express Chipset in weaker laptop and nVidia 8600 256 MB in stronger. Electricity bill is not an issue, I've got it included in my rent.

EDIT: what sgminer version for Windows 7 would you recommend?
69  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN]Cassubian Detk (CDT) QUBIT PoW - first coin with market intervention on: August 18, 2014, 09:21:44 AM
So is it worth it to mine with slow GPU? From the wallet app (I don't see the option)?

The trees24 website for trees planting and trading is planned to be launched on Aug 25.

The silver bullion coins issued by the Jewellery Garden, a company from Gdańsk, are planned to be ready in the first decade of September.

Maybe it's a good idea to add a countdown on the webiste  Roll Eyes

No buy orders at all at cryptoine.

You might want to check again  Cool

May I suggest changing the tagline to "from Cassubian nation"?

Quote
Greening is a new liability that will enter into force on Jan 1, 2015 in the whole European Union. Polish farmers, (as well as their European colleagues), don't like it. They say: "Again the ideas of ecology are worth more than our budgets and our crops. The eurocrats found it themselves to preserve the nature, but we need our acreage for the cultivation". Here is an interview with Mr. Zenon Bistram, chairman of Pomeranian Agriculture Chamber (northern Poland), published yesterday on the The Agricultural Report site (Raport Rolny):


Q: Tell me how "greening" policy found its way into Common Agricultural Policy? Why the farmers will have to destine 5% of their ground to eco plantations?

We must remember that the European Union budget in its agricultural part was planned in 2012 and 2013. These were the years of crisis across whole Europe, and some countries stood against the surcharges to the agriculture to be left at the same level as they were in 2007-2013 budget.
The only possibility to make them agree to preserve the same level of subsidies was to introduce some eco, biodiversity and landscape goals into the subsidies system. This was discussed for a long time, and finally this "greening" has been introduced. It is a concern not only for Polish, but the European farmers. Since 2015 they are obliged to "green" 5% of their areal.

Q: So it's not a matter of "crazy eco eurocrats" ideology, but rathera political consensus?

Yes, this was a deal. Of course we could say "no", but the whole Common Agricultural Policy and agricultural subsidies would be reduced significantly. Now that it's been agreed, we have to introduce it in practice: make use of the possibilities that exist in the farms, and if there are none of them: seek for new solutions.

An important point is that some farms may not even know that they already fulfill the "greening" conditions!

Sure they do, but most of them know, because they took part in agro-environmental programmes. In those all the eco areal had to be preserved from the moment of signing the contract. A part of farmers took part in it, and now they will continue this activity. Now the same will concern all the farmers. There's a small exception: the farms that owe less than 15ha total are excluded from this common obligation (EFA areal).

Q: But the most of Polish farms are smaller than 15 ha...

Sure. In Poland 50% farms are smaller than 5 ha. In our region particularly the average is 18-19 ha, but there are mountain regions on the south where the average is 4 ha, and the polish average is something above 10 ha.

Q: So why we discuss the "greening" so much, and why the farmers are so afraid? If it really concerns 15-20% farms in our country, what is this argument all about?

Mostly about the obedience to the European law. Do we have so many small farms in our country (as I have pointed out before)? Yes, we have. They are exempted from the main "greening" obligation, aren't they? Yes, they are! These 5% concerns only a dozen or so total percent of farms? Yes, what's the problem? We obey the European law. And we must remember that there are so many small farms only in Poland. In other EU countries it looks quite different. And we must remember that those small farm fit into another CAP branch, that includes subsidies for the small farms. They don't have to worry so much about this 5% of areal particularly.

Q: So the typical Polish farmer owing a family-farm doesn't have to worry too much about making a revolution in his farm?

Exactly. This 5%-rule concerns bigger farms, agro-companies. But the small farmers will have to pay attention to environmental, eco and landscape features of their farms. It comes from the other CAP branch, dedicated to small farms I've mentioned before. They are not allowed to plough the whole ground they owe, but they have to preserve the balks, trees, ponds, bushes and so on, because these are the places where the biodiversity grows, the habitat of pollinators and other useful beings. They play a big role in the whole ecosystem, for example pollinators that are beneficial to farmers. There would be no rapeseed or fruit without pollination, and the rapeseed and fruit are one of the most profitable businesses. The farmers let the pollinators live, and the pollinators make the farmers' profits. And some of them make honey, too! Additionally, the EU pays 74 euro/ha for fulfilling these conditions. Everyone's a winner.

Q: As we've said before, some farms fulfill the conditions now without doing anything, because they are luckily in a specific place and have a natural crops, forest, waterhole or bush. But the rest will have to do something in order to fulfill those EU conditions. What?

There are several methods. First is growing the nitrogen binding plants at some minimal part of areal.

Q:The part of ground could be set-aside as a fallow, too?

It could, but most of the farmers don't like it. Fallow at better classes of ground makes no sense, this may work only if someone has weaker grounds. But of course the eco-farmers will do it. When I look at our region: in Kartuzy and Kościerzyna districts there are a lot of forests and the landscape is diverse, so those farmers will not have to do anything to fulfil the greening conditions, because it's done by nature.

Q: But what about the districts on east, nearer to the Vistula river? They have medium class grounds and the landscape is not diverse?

Those farmers will have to do something of course. They'll grow nitrogen binding plants or set-aside, but there're more possibilities: the most interesting is tree planting, we've discussed today. There is an upcoming online project where the eco-oriented people fund the bee-friendly trees online, and the trees are planted on farms. That is a great idea, but with a few loose ties.

Q: What needs to be done?

The most important thing to consider is that planting bee-friendly trees on very high class ground causes that the trees to "steal the water" from the corn or wheat planted in a dozen or so meters around, and the farmer will not like it. It's obvious that those bee-friendly trees are necessary for their plantations, but they would not be so good willing to plant them on their own. On the other hand, planting bee-friendly trees on very weak grounds like class V or VI will not be very efficient, because those trees need a bit better ground.

Q: So, again: what about those districts with medium class grounds and non-varied landscape, nearer to the Vistula river and on the east of our region? Will it work there?

Sure. There are 3rd class grounds, no problem planting. Planting those trees there on balks or in grove is possible, of course. It's good that the people want to do such activity online, but we should do it step by step, not sharply, because the longer time it works the more farmers join, and it's more effective that way. The action should grow in proportion to the interest from the farmers and the tree funders. It shouldn't be a quick action that lasts a few months, but if it will last for 1-2 or more years, it makes really good and useful outcome. We, as the agriculture chambers could join in by collecting the declarations of farmers that are willing to participate. That would result in a transparent database, that will help us determine how many tree seedlings are needed where. It will show clearly if we need 500 or 1000 or any number of trees, so it'll be reasonable and nothing will be wasted, neither trees nor money. The best thing is that the tree funder will know where his tree grows and will have a possibility to come to his tree in person, touch it and see if this works.

Thank you for translation! Can I publish it on Bitenergi.com and other related sites of mine?

If you'll wait until evening, I will improve the translation a little bit.
75  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN]Cassubian Detk (CDT) QUBIT PoW - first coin with market intervention on: August 09, 2014, 09:55:05 AM
Also https://cryptoine.com/voting
Can't wait for the silver Detks!


It's finally working (I "nuked" previous install with Appzapper to make sure no files from previous version were left over). I've sent you a small donation.
Can you mine from the wallet?
76  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN]Cassubian Detk (CDT) QUBIT PoW - first coin with market intervention on: August 08, 2014, 10:33:53 AM
Thanks, karimdr2. I'll test that in a few days and post feedback.
In the meantime, I use cryptoine.
alicea, I can help you with translation and/or proofreading.
77  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN]Cassubian Detk (CDT) QUBIT PoW - first coin with market intervention on: August 07, 2014, 03:58:52 PM
Our upcoming service trees24 is being discussed in Polish media.
This is an interview with Zenon Bistram,

Any articles in english?

If you're interested in exploring other options, the contrib directory includes a “macdeploy” folder which looks promising:

https://github.com/cassubian/detkcoin/blob/master/contrib/macdeploy/notes.txt

Is there an user-friendly way/installer? I'm not really into terminal commands, compiling, etc.
78  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN]Cassubian Detk (CDT) QUBIT PoW - first coin with market intervention on: August 06, 2014, 05:54:50 PM
So which version I should install and launch on 10.7?
79  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN]Cassubian Detk (CDT) QUBIT PoW - first coin with market intervention on: August 05, 2014, 07:22:37 PM
I'm not 100% sure, but I think  Xcode might be no longer supported in 10.7 (I was looking around for a blog post to confirm that, but I've only found discussions)...

There is an OS X wallet called Hive (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=315651.msg8031588#msg8031588 [PL], https://hivewallet.com/ [ENG]), but it is still under development and deemed not safe - that's why I'm reluctant to try it.
80  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN]Cassubian Detk (CDT) QUBIT PoW - first coin with market intervention on: August 05, 2014, 01:31:01 PM
I'm not familiar with OS X libraries, but I'm happy to provide feedback on software.
