Hello,
Does any one have any addnodes they can share for the SHND wallet please?
Thanks, Mike.

This sounds really cool!
Would be great to see lots of sites like this to engage users and entice new people in :-)
Good work!

Hello,
Am I too late to swap my WC from Cryptopia?
I've just registered on Winbitex only to find I'm too late for them to accept old WC.
Is there another way I can save my coins currently on 'topia?
Cheers, Mike....

I've just completed the coinswap via the site chat box. Lucy was very helpful and the whole process was painless.
Thank you TTC team.

Hi,
I know this is an old topic but just discovered Cryptobetfair and I see vouchers were being given out here.
If there are vouchers still available please can I have one?
My username is: cryptomike

Okay, so may be it's just me being thick but in case any one else encounters the problems I have I'll write this to help them, or for those smarter than me to ridicule.
* Installed Windows wallet, no connections to the Bumba network.
* Eventually found out it uses ports 20202 and 20222. Not sure which is for the mainnet and which for testnet, I found conflicting info on this so I forwarded both in my router. Once I've got the wallet synced and fully working I'll disable each in turn and find out which it actually needs.
* Still no connections to the Bumba network.
* From post No. 339 (by bumbacoin) in this thread it appeared I was on a fork - not sure how because I used the latest bootstrap from the link on the Bumba website.
* From post No. 338 (by ukmayhem) I moved everything other than .lock and wallet.dat to a temp directory, will delete that lot once everything is fully sorted.
* From post No. 606 (by linenoise) I opened a command prompt as Admin, navigated to the directory where the wallet .exe lives and entered "bumbacoin2-qt-win32-v1100.exe -addnode=167.160.36.13" (without quotes) and the wallet loaded and had 1 active connection showing when I moused over the "signal bars" in the bottom right corner. I'd tried the first IP in the list linnoise gave but that did nothing for me.
* Once it had that one active connection it started syncing from the network and gaining more and more nodes. Currently it's at 20 active connections (hasn't increased in a while so I suspect that's a max. number).
Will be waiting a while for it to fully sync but at least it looks like it's all working as it should :-)
I hope this helps some one else get started in the future.
Next onto figuring out how to install and make the Linux wallet work. My end goal is to have it running on my RPi2.
Cheers, Mike...
Thanks to bumbacoin, ukmayhem, linenoise and every one else who contributed to this thread, useful information in here and a lot of laughs. Thanks all.
EDIT: 20 isn't a max. No. of nodes, it's now up to 23.
hi  great work, i dont actually check this thread much come to discord for more regular attention. lol https://discord.gg/RnYQ3U3there's a slack channel, but i dont go there much as i have too many things running i will have to check the bootstrap out and see what sort of fork shenanigans may or may not be happening. Thanks for the Discord invite, have just joined. Will probably post a few questions once I've had a chance to read the FAQ etc. unlikely before Mon. though. Now I just have to figure out what the problem with signing up with TouchMyCoin is. Cheers, Mike... |

Hi,
Also I tried sighing up at TouchMyCoin a couple of times, it said the confirmation email had been sent but nothing received. There's no spam filtering on that address so I know that's not the issue. Is there an issue with signups just now? Any help with getting signed up greatly appreciated.
Cheers, Mike...

Hello,
Drew a blank with getting it working on my Pi for now, or on my laptop running actual Ubuntu and installed the Windows version of the wallet on my desktop. It installed no problem, I copied the bootstrap file and deleted the necessary and it picked it up and processed it. But it just won't connect to the network. I'm running the latest 1.1.0.0 downloaded today from the link on the Bumba website. I allowed it through my software firewall, does it need any ports on the router forwarding? If so which ones please and TCP and/or UDP?
Cheers, Mike...

Hi, Hello,
I've searched and haven't found an answer for this yet but apologies if it has been discussed and I missed it.
I'm interested in running the Bumba wallet on a Raspberry Pi 2, will that be sufficient to run it? I'm currently staking OK Coin on the RPi, hoping Bumba doesn't need much hardware either and I can run the wallet as well.
Cheers, Mike...
I don't have any RPI experience, I assume the largest hassle would be storage as the staking is nothing odd. Bumba's blockchain is about 2.6 gigs so nothing too bad. If you get it working I'd be interested in you writing up how you set it up. I'd be happy to reward you with some Bumba for that. I'll see about having a go but my Linux knowledge is very, very basic so it may not end well! I've downloaded the Ubuntu wallet zip but no idea what to do with the "bumbacoin2d-v1100" file, I've only used .deb files and sudo apt get-install before. I'll poke about and see if I can figure it out. I'm using the OK Coin supplied ROKOS Core V8 which is Ubuntu based so with any luck it'll work. I'll let you know how it goes. Cheers, Mike... |

Hello,
Great work on the miner so far, thank you.
I'd like to use this miner long term as it seems fast but according to the -h options display there is no way to set a target temperature. Is this possible just now? If not is fan control something you will be adding to hsrminer in the near future?
I tried the miner on my GTX 1060 3GB and the temp quickly hit 75c so I had to shut it down. That's my gaming card in a closed case, I can't risk frying that card so need to keep the temps a bit lower than that.
Cheers, Mike...
You can use Afterburner to set a target temperature if you wish.... but 75c is not even remotely in danger of "frying" your GPU. Heck, even Nvidia by default has them target ~83c when under 100% load and they are designed to hit 100C or so before shutting down due to temperature. Obviously they will degrade faster if you run them that hot 24/7, but 75c is not an issue. If you set that fan speed to manually run at 60% that may be all you need to keep your GPU below 75c if that's the only GPU in your case and you have good aiflow (good quality intake and exhaust case fans). Thanks for that Elder III. I was a bit worried because I had a couple of black screens whilst mining, Windows re-drew all the open windows and this is my main desktop machine, I work on it and game on it. The card was a Christmas present and I can't afford to replace it so I'm really paranoid about over stressing it. I've got a full aluminium case and 120mm Scythe fans so cooling is good. May be I'll start mining on it again after what you say, I could certainly do with the extra sol/s. Cheers, Mike... Is your GPU running at stock settings? Usually black screens are an indicator of an unstable overclock or unstable power supply. Does it do that when it's just running by itself, or were you doing other things on your PC at the time? Yep, completely stock. It's never done it before or since, had been mining for weeks but that was the first time I noticed it happen. Cheers, Mike..... |
