Are there ways to earn this coin without mining, maybe by writing?
nah, this isnt "wiki writer coin, aka the new devcoin"
883  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: [ANNOUNCE] Bitmessage - P2P Messaging system based partially on Bitcoin on: September 15, 2013, 01:21:31 PM
For example, is there a reason why BM could not be implemented as a reliable-and-anonymous message channel by just building on top of a DHT such as freenet or similar? This would scale far better and we would not need to care about ACKs.
Freenet already has a mail system that does everything Bitmessage does, with stronger privacy protections.

Yes, and I2P has Bote, etc. Problems:

They are much heavier software with slower startup times and higher network load
No one-click setup
Java
Not specifically marketed as secure email
aslong you dont use orcale's java and use openjdk/openjre, java isnt a problem on the privacy/security way. tough i agree it isnt really suitable due to performance, it should be C Smiley
884  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Yet another Coin Control Release on: September 15, 2013, 01:17:10 PM
Can someone please work on creating a test plan and working through it so we can merge this? Sad
I would think it's been tested enough. Unless you mean that someone has to create a test plan to satisfy some bureaucratic nonsense.
it's not a matter of whether it's been behavior-tested enough in the field, it's a matter of ongoing test support, thus the request for a plan.

a test plan matters and it is not "bureaucratic nonsense". if you distribute software that breaks or has bugs creep in, especially with financial software, it reflects poorly on the developers.

It'd be pretty hard for CC to break at this point, since so many people have tested it and tried to break it. Unless you mean a test plan to expose any future bugs.
also many ppls (including me) are using CC since it was available (both versions, first coderrr's, now cozz's).

and the coin is not Proof of Script
Proof of Work with the Scrypt algorithm. It's based on Litecoin which also uses the Scrypt Proof of Work algorithm. Smiley
I'm interested in Zerocoin implementation news. Any updates? Smiley
i think he means PoS (Proof of Stake)

So, I happened to notice that the AUG 2013 report is now available.

https://vircurex.com/welcome/investors

What does it mean for depositors (user's accounts) that the exchange is reporting a book value of -931.95 BTC ?
nothing id say, otherwise problems would already have arised. its just sad he put his own failures (the hacks) to us investors... this was probably one of my worst investments :S

Sorry, I'm not quite the wizard with autotools. Anyway, compile it on either linux, or someone has been successful with mingw or cygwin. Autotools doesn't do MSVS. SO HERE:

git clone https://github.com/uncle-bob/quarkcoin-cpuminer.git  
cd quarkcoin-cpuminer  
sh autogen.sh  
./configure CFLAGS="-msse2"  
make  

-msse2 is not optional, should be built into the build scripts. However, I've avoided getting good with autotools this long, might as well not start now. Really anyone have a simple examples for autotools? They seem to all turn into a huge pita quickly. Step two might be cmake or anything else.

really though,  the code at:  

http://stonefoz.myfastmail.com/  

is probably the best, first release where fast is first.
I've been monkeying around with stuff on github, should be faster later, just not anytime soon. Rewriting large bits and it's going to be broken some times.

when i run ./configure CFLAGS="-msse2"
i get

./configure: line 5577: syntax error near unexpected token `,'
./configure: line 5577: `LIBCURL_CHECK_CONFIG(, 7.15.2, ,'

but i have curl 7.32.0 installed

any idea??
are you on a debian based system (ubuntu, mint, etc), if so:
Code:
sudo apt-get install -y libcurl4-openssl-dev
otherwise look for a libcurl dev(eloper) package.

for compiling you need the headers of given libs. ie, if you have a library libfoo, you need to install libfoo-dev if you want to use it in your code.

Using: https://github.com/uncle-bob/quarkcoin-cpuminer

E3-1230 (quad-core, HT)
90khash per thread, 540khash on six of eight threads.

i5-3570S (quad-core)
130khash per thread, 400khash on three of four threads.

i7-3770S (quad-core, HT)
80khash per thread, 520khash on six of eight threads.

Xeon X3440 (quad-core, HT)
66khash per thread, 400khash on six of eight threads.

i3-2130 (dual-core, HT)
100khash per thread, 300khash on three of four threads.

you should be able to get faster on the i7-3770s

my i7-960 gets 600khash on 8 threads (on turbomode), i7-4770k gets like 1mhash

if it gets to 100oC it'll start to throttle itself

100C? thats a horrible cooling system...

Make sure you pick 256k
we did all settings were correct but some faults in the program/windows fuckt it up
Still got a extra one to try but hoping to get the (broken) jala back to work
you cant kill the jala, just reflash it. if a flashing operation aborts it dosnt hurt Wink
How to reflash when nothing is there atmel does not see the chip ;-)
atmel is the chip, did you connect the wires wrong?

This post sums up the temporary fix for OS X 10.8.x until a compatible release is out.

If Anoncoin-Qt crashes at launch on Mac OS X 10.8.x follow these steps.

Code:
sudo mkdir -p /opt/local/lib
sudo cp -n /Applications/Anoncoin-Qt.app/Contents/Frameworks/* /usr/lib/
sudo ln -sf /usr/lib/ /opt/local/lib/

The output should say:
cp: /Applications/Anoncoin-Qt.app/Contents/Frameworks/QtCore.framework is a directory (not copied).
cp: /Applications/Anoncoin-Qt.app/Contents/Frameworks/QtGui.framework is a directory (not copied).
cp: /Applications/Anoncoin-Qt.app/Contents/Frameworks/QtNetwork.framework is a directory (not copied).

You should now be able to start Anoncoin-Qt.


In case you tried an early fix you might have an issue with other apps crashing with the output shown below:

Quote
Dyld Error Message:
  Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libz.1.dylib
  Referenced from: /System/Library/Frameworks/AppKit.framework/Versions/C/AppKit
  Reason: no suitable image found.  Did find:
   /usr/lib/libz.1.dylib: mach-o, but wrong architecture
   /usr/lib/libz.1.dylib: mach-o, but wrong architecture

To fix this issue, go through these steps.

Code:
cd --
mkdir librestore
cd librestore
curl -O http://home.himolde.no/~romfo/lib.tar.gz
tar -xjf lib.tar.gz
sudo cp usr/lib/libz.* /usr/lib/
why not cp -R ? is it intentionally that those 3 folders arrent copied over?

894  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] [QRK] Quark | Super secure hashing | CPU mining on: September 03, 2013, 09:32:34 AM
about how many blocks can i expect per day at 160k Hashes per sec?

Maybe once every couple days...

thats crazy bad profitability :/

At time of writing, the Quarkcoin difficulty is 441.12747160.

The formula for seconds per block is 2^24*<difficulty>/<mining rate in hashes per sec>

2^24 * 441.12747160 / 160000 = ~46,256 seconds per block
46,256 / 60 = ~771 minutes per block
771 / 60 = ~13 hours per block.

There's the maths for you.

FWIW, here's what it would take me, mining at roughly 605kH/s:

2^24 * 441.12747160 / 605000 = ~12,233 seconds per block
12,333 / 60 = ~206 minutes per block
206 / 60 = ~3 hours per block.

That's a 4.3x decrease in time, for a 3.8x increase in power. There are small economies of scale.

Matthew:out

Thx for the calculation but what about the orphan rate ?

Most of block found are orphan, how do you determine the % orphan rate ?


most are orphan? almost none of mine has been orphan! FUD!

Would it be possible to apply a patch for mixing coins in the network itself like https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=24784.0. This might help provide greater anonymity. The coins would get mixed between the person's multiple addresses and you get to choose how many times they get mixed.

Also, would it be possible for you to implement a pool that you mine on with your address as your username and you have PPS/PPLNS that you can then store and send to the lottery?

Ex:
You create an ANC account on the anc website.
You start mining on the pool with your username.
You set your ANC address in your account settings. [The account has its own address so it can send the ANC to the lotto] {This would probably require you to rewrite some of the code :/}
You gain a multiple of 1 ANC, and then click a button "Send Your ANC to Lottery".
You participate in the lottery, and the lottery sends [if you win] the ANc to the address you set in your account settings. [And you may be able to send it back to your account to get a better chance in the lottery {maybe not, that would prove unfair in the long run if they have a large mining rig}]

It may not be a very good idea, but it would probably be easier to participate in the lotto.
if you would have read trough the thread or checked the options @ GUI, you would know this has already been implemented. check some messages back for my announcement Smiley

greetings

Yikes! I can tell you from experience that once the magic smoke comes out mysterious little boxes with blinking lights, they no longer tend to work.  Sad

I'm sorry you seem to have bricked your unit.
this happens if you dont use the hardware accordingly, so be sure to always check that the pins are correctly mapped.
897  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ixcoin TODO on: August 30, 2013, 10:05:09 PM
Why the sudden interest in ixCoin?

Or do we simply have more ASICS so they're trying to maximize profits?  I know I'll merge mine when/if I get my ASICS.

Bitcoin hit $142 in Mt Gox today.  I said roughly 10 days ago we'd hit $150-$200 in the next 2-3 weeks on rumors or an ETF license.  Looks like it's right on time.  ETF should go live in the next 60 days, I suspect.

That will absolutely change everything in the crypto coin world.  This is only the beginning!
its not interest Mr Delusion...
Merged Mining is free! you get ixcoins for free, all you have to pay is the cpu cycles the ixcoind needs Tongue
You dont need to be interested in ixcoins at all, most ppl who do MM probably dump their coins to BTC anyway.
this was always the case, so if btc hashrate is climbing fast, ixcoin will too!
the same happend for namecoin, devcoin, i0coin.
898  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Experimenting with Jalapeno firmware... on: August 30, 2013, 10:01:33 PM

for firmware 1.2.5++ you need cmigner 3.3.2. not 3.3.1
