Jesus christ dude, market cap is measured in dollars. Besides that, I'm 110% sure bitcoin did not more than double in price within the timeframe between 19:25 and 19:45 anyway. Did you even look at the graph??



Why not just say you don't know or just don't reply, instead of typing meaningless words and nonsensical babble?

No, the price was already at 1.95 over 24 hours ago. I am talking the market cap spiking from 2.3M to 4.9M @ 19:45 UTC for seemingly no reason.

Does anyone know why coinmarketcap is showing a huge (more than 2x) spike in market cap today? The price has gone up but only single digit %. Were there some coins burned or something?

'walletpassphrase' is the command. Your passphrase is one of the parameters of that command.

So if your password/passphrase is 'password1234', and you want to unlock the wallet for 30 days, you type:

walletpassphrase password1234 2592000 true

That is the same one you use to unlock the wallet for staking

The syntax is:

walletpassphrase <password> <time in seconds> true

Congratz to the 3+ year bagholders who can finally break even! 

It's probably trying to mine Ethereum for the devfee...but it's weird that it happens after only 10 minutes and not 15. If you use -allcoins exp it will mine expanse for the devfee which will be fine for 2GB cards.

K thanks for the tips!

The info is in the OP:

Block 210240

With CC2.0 around the corner, is there a plan to burn the premine? Most of it could probably be burnt right now, and then the remainder just before the new coin launches.

Wolf0 I have a question. Does it help (in the context of hash rates) to have a certain Linux kernel (as in a recent one...perhaps that you compile yourself) or a certain driver (amdgpu vs amdgpu-pro)? And I doubt it makes a difference...but what about mesa version?

btw I'm asking within the confines of publicly available packages specifically.

Edit the BIOS to have the desired voltage/clocks at load, then you don't need to use AB (or wattman or whatever) at all.

I can't see the trivial amount of resources used to do the actual mining as a big problem, especially since most will probably be using a pool to do that part anyway.

I think the ability to be able to contribute to a wider range of projects and have more certificate authorities, and the decentralization that brings, far outweighs having to have a second type of client or a wallet open while you're mining folding.

btw what other projects/cert authorities will be coming on board...or is it too early to tell still?

Well medicine is just one (but certainly not the only) field that can greatly benefit from AI, so it is related. Anyhow I was just curious. Thanks for the response!

For the way the mining works, I think it sounds pretty good. Obviously it can't be completely decentralized since the computations have to be something useful to a scientist/lab/institution and are going to be highly specific to the research project. I don't know how you would make a generalized PoW algorithm that produces useful work for a wide range of research projects. Anyhow, the more projects/certificate authorities there are to choose from, the more decentralized it would be. Even with just F@H issuing certificates for now, it sounds like it will still be way more trustless than the current system of millions of premined coins.

Will folders be able to pool their certificates so they won't have to 'solo mine' an entire block to get rewards?

Can someone from the team explain a bit how the "folding" blocks are created and distributed in CC 2.0?

My understanding is that there will be no more need for a pre-mined amount that requires someone to distribute it; but that it will be based on certificates issued by Stanford (for folding work) and Berkeley, or whoever else (for BOINC projects and other work); and so coins will only be created as blocks are "mined".
But, without getting too technical, how does the network interact with the certificate authorities to decide what address to award a block to? Will each authority have to maintain their own "pool" in a sense? If so, how would each so-called pool be weighted?

Also will there still be a portion of rewards that go to ASIC miners for traditional PoW mining?

Thanks, and great job! Looking forward to seeing how this plays out. It would be awesome if pointing rigs toward scientific research was the most profitable thing to do (or at least on par) and everyone starts doing it.

P.S. I don't know if you'll have an answer for this one, but will distributed AI research projects be one of the things you can do for rewards? Seems there would be a huge demand for this kind of research, both right now and for the foreseeable future.

Thanks again!

Yes, the drivers are known to not work at all on Win7.


Use '-allcoins etc'

I would love to still use these binaries, but I'm wondering if anyone has benchmarked this vs. the latest Claymore on Polaris cards, and checked on the pool for average effective hashrate in each case?
I would switch right now, but I'm still in the middle of testing different memory timings on different cards, and I'd have to put that on hold because a different miner would throw everything off.

Anyone benchmarked this recently?

Yes, Cure was listed on Poloniex since shortly after its launch in 2014, but on April 18th this year they announced it would be delisted soon. I think the actual delisting happened in early May.

Found the announcement:

You only need to edit the one corresponding to the type of memory ICs that are on your card. That said, if you're not sure, it doesn't hurt anything to do both unless you plan on desoldering your mem chips and putting on different ones

If you are running your memory clocks at 1751 or above, then you only need to edit the 2000 strap.
