Just for everyone to be sure, if you retrieved the source code from github lately and compiled it, you are automatically voting for merged mining. You can tell by looking at cryptonote_config.h in /src/ SUPPORT merged mining: #define CURRENT_BLOCK_MINOR_VERSION 1 AGAINST merged mining: #define CURRENT_BLOCK_MINOR_VERSION 0 |

- if you want "merged mining" in Bitmonero you have to update yout mining daemon now. New mining daemon will issue blocks with an incremented minor_version field. In case > 75% of blocks mined will have an incremented minor_version we will accept "merged minng" and new code will be published on git. Which means that he's counting them as yes votes if you have #define CURRENT_BLOCK_MINOR_VERSION 1 |

Okay, merge mining is now a clusterfuck because people are voting for it if they grab the source from github without even know it.
Sigh.
TFT already said he's going to change that. Hopefully he does that in such a way that the people who have already grabbed it don't count as votes without knowing about it. Where? Config looked like this: #define CURRENT_BLOCK_MAJOR_VERSION 1
#define CURRENT_BLOCK_MINOR_VERSION 0 Now it looks like this: #define CURRENT_BLOCK_MAJOR_VERSION 1
#define CURRENT_BLOCK_MINOR_VERSION 1 |

Do we have a giveaway fund for new users? Good idea? Bad idea?
Seems like its really hard for them to get their first coins on their own with mining now given there is no pool yet.
I am giving away a few to new users if they PM me. However, giveaway threads are technically banned. |

Nice work.  sometimes just takes a while. |

I'm unable to start_mining. I synchronize the blockchain with bitmonerod, and then I use simplewallet to start_mining, but I get: 2014-Apr-25 22:34:26.724501 Read command: start_mining 8 2014-Apr-25 22:34:31.724750 Failed to invoke http request to http://localhost:18081/start_mining2014-Apr-25 22:34:31.724776 Error: mining has NOT been started: possible lost connection to daemon In the bitmonerod terminal: 2014-Apr-25 22:40:16.245240 [RPC1][sock 28] Some problems at write: Broken pipe:32

... I'm using Ubuntu 13.10, and I've followed the instructions in the OP. The cpu is an old 8 core intel i7 860 Any idea of what I'm doing wrong? Not sure what the issue is; if you can generate a wallet and sync the chain though, you can start mining in the daemon to your address directly though with the following command: start_mining <address> <number_of_threads> |

Im actually for prolonging the emission period to as long and fair as possible. If this coin is in fact intended to become a viable option with mass adoption in mind, 4 years is just not long enough. I have been mining (Bit)monero from day 2 and wouldnt mind if my stash gets halved (although I wouldnt mind if it just getting halved from here on 10000 blocks in the future either  ). Any way, we should discuss first and have a vote for it and we should have it soon because the earlier the easier, the better. As smooth stated, this is a hard fork change and will be difficult to implement and get consensus on. But it can still be discussed. |

MacOS version was announced to be coming by the devs, but it took them too long... So I spent a couple of nights playing around and I think I've managed to make Bytecoin compile under OSX. I've made the pull request, let's hope it will be accepted. https://github.com/amjuarez/bytecoin/pull/5Cool, thanks. I'll hunt someone down with MacOS or install lion and try to make monero binaries and merge these changes into a fork when I get a chance. |

Looks like you are synced or nearly synced, try restarting the daemon ("save" then "exit")

one CPU been getting 4/30 synch ok
and the rest
2014-Apr-25 14:20:24.340452 [P2P1]Connecting to IP:18080(white=0, last_seen: d0.h0.m1.s25)...
2014-Apr-25 14:20:26.962602 [P2P9][IP:18080 OUT] COMMAND_HANDSHAKE INVOKED OK
is there something wrong?
No blocks are coming in with "set_log 1" entered in daemon? |

Thank you for this picture.
I just found these coins and they look very interresting, but I need more time to figure the ins and outs of this.
I really like that MinerGate-thing for BCN. Very fun to instantly get rewards, unlike BMR where I might get one every other day or so.
In the RPC server there is everything you need to start a pool really (getblocktemplate; simple-miner can connect to a server and get the template to then hash). We are just waiting for someone to fork eloipool or something else and create an open source pool for CryptoNote coins. The first person who does will probably be rich in reward. |

Thanks TFT. Haven't heard from you in a while, hope everything is okay. Hopfully I'm alive. Can you please summarize ideas about ideal emission curve? Will pm |
|
|

well i have been mining more then 36 hrs with 4 h/s and havent found anything.
Same goes with my 2 h/s older CPU.
i guess i must be one of those "unlucky" fellas
pm me an address, i will send you some coins.  |

Unlike tenebrix/fairbrix the coin subsidy per block decreases over time too, and also so far monero hasn't been plagued with terrible bugs like tenebrix was (because tenebrix was built on the mostly broken multicoin). Never heard of multicoin before and mapofcoins.com seems not to have neither. It was an old, rather buggy client based on bitcoin-qt |

Yeah, the way above post was a little enthusiastic.
So far only 0.1% of monero has been distributed, and the distribution is clearnet. No one is totally sure who holds the bulk of ByteCoin and whether or not they're benevolent or malicious.
Unlike tenebrix/fairbrix the coin subsidy per block decreases over time too, and also so far monero hasn't been plagued with terrible bugs like tenebrix was (because tenebrix was built on the mostly broken multicoin). So another adequate comparison is monero:bytecoin as litecoin:tenebrix.
ByteCoin's dev community is much more active and likely we'll be pulling a lot of merges from them, so ByteCoin of course still has immense value.

For people wanting to figure out how many blocks they'll get per day:
- Divide difficulty by 60 to get H/s of the network, eg 300,000 / 60 = 5000 H/s
- Divide your H/s by this, eg 10 H/s / 5000 H/s = 0.002
- Multiply this by the number of blocks per day (24 * 60) to get your per day block probability, eg 0.002 * 24 * 60 = 2.88 blocks per day.

My bad, locked. PM me if you want some free Monero. |
