MANDATORY UPDATE to 1.0.0.2
OP UPDATED


Hi,  are all the forks merged into version 1002 or cutoff at block 85,000? The pool that I was in is still on the old version 1000 fork.  Will I lose all the coins mined after the 85,000 block?  I pray that dev would do the merge so I don't lose the few thousand coins that I mined since the fork.

Pray for Atheistcoin? The irony  Grin

More like crying.... I lost 23,041 coins ( or $134 worth of electricity cost for 3 days) mining in http://cryptohunger.com:81/.   The pool is run by someone goes by the name srcxxx.

The pool uses optimized kernel that give 5-10% more hashrate, but the fee ( I was finally able to calculate based on confirmed blocks and payout differences for each hour ) is 8%.  So basically, you get the same payout as any other pool because the higher hashrate is offset by the high pool fee.

Hi, that's a huge shame, and we feel for your loss, however we can not be held responsible for pools who didn't update .. especially if those pools are not listed by us. The problem is not AtheistCoin, the problem is some of these pools run too many coins or their owner gets too lazy to frequently check for updates and announces. After all it's the pool owners responsibility to keep the pool up to date, we gave a 60 hour notice, but this s was apparently not enough of a warning for these pools.

The result was more then 50% of the network hammering on in the old chain and forking, with other words: the pool owners are not just your problem, they are our problem, and alt coins' in general too. It's all profit driven and to make a quick buck they need to run multiple coins, they seem to forget that with every coin they host they take on a responsibility to at least daily check for updates for the coin they host, that's like 30 sec per day per coin .. but apparently even that is already too much to ask.

Currently the only pool we are absolutely certain of always being up to date is our own pool. When other pools confirm to be running 1.0.0.2 we will also list them as certain in the OP.

P.S.

$134 dollars for 3 days of electricity?  So you are saying you use $1400 per month in power? Where on earth do you live and how much Mh/s are we talking?

Hi Atheistcoin,

I compiled a list with users and pools that did not upgrade (still on 1.0.0.0 as I type!) and thus caused your fork ... do you have any use for this?
I can send it in PM?  I guess dumping IPs and addresses here might be taking it to far Wink

It's very sad to see one of the few new alt-coins that is not scamming almost die because of lack of investment of it's users and pools.

It almost looks like people prefer scams with fake (pre-)ANNs nowaday, what a shame!
I wish you guys the best of luck, I hope you survive this dip, I belief (hahaha) in this coin (or rather, the dev, code looks good), and if I can do anything to help you guys out, do not hesitate to ask!

Hi, no, we do not need to assign blame anywhere, shit happens. Also we do know how 'getpeerinfo' works Wink

At least the 1.0.0.2 fork is running on the official nodes so if only everyone bothered to upgrade (grmbl ... still a lot of peeps on 1.0.0.0 indeed) we are going to be fine.

Thank you for your kind words though Smiley

MANDATORY UPDATE to 1.0.0.2
OP UPDATED

Hi,  are all the forks merged into version 1002 or cutoff at block 85,000? The pool that I was in is still on the old version 1000 fork.  Will I lose all the coins mined after the 85,000 block?  I pray that dev would do the merge so I don't lose the few thousand coins that I mined since the fork.

No, we did not merge, we cut off at 85K, merging would be extremely unfair for the very obvious reason the pools who didn't upgrade were handing out non-existent coins. Block-reward dropped to 7.5 at 85K, pools which did not upgrade were still handing out 10. We announced well ahead (60 hours) there was a mandatory update. We don't see why we would reward pools/persons that caused the fork. Also it is simply impossible to do anything fairly towards all the people who DID upgrade, any coin to compensate you must come out of their pockets, and that's not right at all, they did everything right.

So sorry, this is how it's going to be, if you don't like it go please go harass the pool operator, they were the ones who didn't bother to upgrade and thus caused the fork, maybe that operator learns something and stays more active on the forums (like they should be).

The 'official' pool is currently up to date, there is no need to register, just enter the below data in your miner-software and any coins mined will be send straight to your wallet.
Don't forget ATH matures in 80 blocks, so you won't see any coin appear in your local wallet untill 1 hour after you started mining.

Stratum: stratum+tcp://pool.atheistcoin.org:3333
Username: your AtheistCoin address
Password: anything


Note: Mining in the official pool helps ATH stay alive, we take a tiny fee and use that to fill our development/hosting/give-away fund.
However this is not nearly enough, (I guess we were to fair for our own good,) so if you would like to help us out, please donate some to the address listed in OP.

And a reminder: As long as not all our nodes are upgraded (unfortunately we do not control all of them), the Warning about the other nodes needing to upgrade will stay visible, please do not worry about this, it shows just because some of the unofficial nodes that have not upgraded yet, this should be resolved as soon as we managed to contact all the volunteers running these nodes.
If you use the 1.0.0.2 wallet you should be fine.

WTF the price went down to the floor and the dev is not doing anything about it we need someone to take over this project the current dev can't handle it..

So, the dev was not doing anything? I wonder how this new update came to be then Tongue

Running through the commits for this new wallet I see:

  • Fork at 85.000
  • New reward scheme added
  • New functions added (makekeypair?)
  • New IRC-module added (with custom build serverimplementation)
  • New flag added (-testirc) for IRC-debugging and logging
  • New checkpoints added
  • New alert key set

Did I miss anything? Smiley

Yes you did Wink

GUI was improved too:

Fixed a few minor flaws with colors etc.
New overall font added
Monotype font for addresses
New icons
New progressbar

Also, it needs to be said we currently are considering the IRC module functional but far from finished ... we took some shortcuts (namely with the private message tab) because we felt we had to show to the community we are still working on advancing the concept and the code.  There is a known bug (see previous post), and we are not satisfied with the current private message implementation, yes it works and yes it saves a lot of hassle with handling tabs or dialogs ... but still we feel there is a better solution.

This is kind of where we want to involve feedback from you, the community.
Originally we intended to implement PoS near the end of PoW, but since it's such a big thing lately we want to make the decision yours.

What should we focus on next?
Improve IRC more? Add more features to wallet? Go for PoS?

MANDATORY UPDATE to 1.0.0.1
UPDATE BEFORE BLOCK 85.000!


Greetings ATH Community

We, the ATH-team, have decided to restructure our rewards in preparation of adding PoS (or something very similar, a better solution might present itself). The new reward system will apply from block 85.000 and higher; we have removed the superblocks entirely and lowered the total coins generated in the PoW-phase by 33%. The new scheme is as follows:




New Scheme

Reward  Times    Total    
--------------------------------
10   x  85.000 = 850.000
7.5  x  65.000 = 487.500
5    x 100.000 = 500.000
2.5  x 250.000 = 625.000
1    X 500.000 = 500.000
--------------------------------
     1.000.000   2.932.500
   
Block total is 1.000.000.



This new scheme 'frees' nearly 1.6 million coins from PoW which can now be used for PoS (or another stake-like reward scheme) without increasing our total coin supply.

Also we are pleased to announce we integrated our IRC-channel in the wallet, you can now chat with other ATH-users without a client or via a webservice. Unfortunately it turned out the open source code many wallets base their chat upon was quite buggy. We felt we could not release like this so we decided to rewrite most of the server implementation. Because we feel the channel is the most important and should have focus we opted for not displaying private messages in separate tabs, but in a single one. For this same reason we are not allowing you to join other channels. If you want the real IRC experience you should install a real IRC client and join us in #atheistcoin on freenode.net

There is 1 known bug left in the private message tab, but since we only have little time left before block 85000 we decided on releasing anyway and pushing the fix to the next wallet release.

Known bug in IRC: Wallet crashes if you receive a private message AFTER changing your nickname, and only then .. so just don't change your nickname Wink

We are currently testing the new wallet and its features, fixing some last bugs then hopefully release it asap. We cant give out a certain date yet, but we are working as hard as we can to release it as soon as possible. About the POS, its true that we are considering it and exploring the current possibilities. 

We would also like to take this opportunity to let everyone know we are not getting delisted from Bittrex.

Dear community,
It has been a while since we have posted in the thread, we have been very busy improving and also adding new features to ATH.
With the current 52613 blocks and 526,130 ATH outstanding we are happy to say the POW phase is going along very nice and without issues.
If there are any suggestions for future changes we are open to comments from our community, so please dont hesitate to share your thoughts.
We are planning on releasing a new wallet version, which we are sure you will all like very much Wink.

Also it has come to our attention that not many of the ATH community/investors/miners/traders are active on our social media, we would like to ask everyone to step up and get involved. Also if you think you can help us out in any way please contact us!

I haven't mined any GROESTL-based coin so far. How much hashrate should a 280X have? It's Sapphire Dual-X R9 280X.

MANDATORY UPDATE to 1.0.0.2! Links below are updated


L I N K S
       

W A L L E T S
   



UPDATING THE WALLET:

IMPORTANT! :

Unfortunately the update to 1.0.0.1 has caused a fork (because a lot of people and some services did not update their wallets in time for block 85000) ... the competing 1.0.0.0 fork was so strong that the actual fork did not manage to take off. To combat his we decided to launch a 1.0.0.2 version on a protected net (we blocked the 1.0.0.0 clients while syncing), hook up a pool of our own and make sure the blocks started flowing again. It was a desperate measure, but it has worked.

After updating you might still get a warning that displayed transactions might not be correct and other nodes need to upgrade ... unfortunately this is partially true (other nodes need to upgrade) and this will be the case until everyone who is running as node has upgraded to the 1.0.0.2 version  .. however the chain is active and and mineable and the warning should disappear as soon as we have managed to contact the nodes not run directly by us.

Before upgrading: remove ALL files but your wallet.dat (it is always wise to make a backup of your wallet.dat before doing anything)


Windows:  
Type: %APPDATA% in your explorer
(Or manualy go to C:\Users\{YOURUSERNAME}\AppData\Roaming\
Enter folder atheistcoin and remove all files and folders EXCEPT wallet.dat


Linux:
Open a terminal:
 
cd ~/.AtheistCoin
cp wallet.dat ../
rm -r *
mv ../wallet.dat .



Mac OSX:
Open a terminal:

cd ~/Library/Application\ Support/AtheistCoin
mv wallet.dat ../
rm -r *
mv ../wallet.dat .








ATHEISTCOIN (ATH)
After months of planning, preparing, coding and designing we are proud to launch AtheistCoin.
We have put a lot of work and thought into this project, for us this is the start of a new adventure.

We are a group of like-minded people who take pride in the fact that our search for truth relies on empirical data and scientifically proven facts. We depend on autonomous critical thinking through the faculties of reason, logic and empiricism. This comes from within and from our peers through feedback. It is this intellectual endeavour that has ultimately led to science; the most prized achievement of mankind.

We are advocates of free thought and strongly feel that this is a fundamental human right. Cryptocurrency is an exciting new technology that fits perfectly within the framework of atheism and is an embodiment of free thought and liberation. Our mission is that AtheistCoin will provide an additional means to strengthen and support the free-thinking community and the causes that we stand for.

One of our main goals is to establish ourselves as a non-profit community organization and provide financial support in the form of donations in an array of fields ranging from education, science to humanistic projects.

The emphasis will lie on constructive and positive engagement. The potential of the technology behind the coin makes it suitable for multiple purposes, thus we will not limit ourselves to this one application. We will continue to explore the possibilities… When choosing the direction of the coin and the projects to be funded we will take community feedback into great consideration.

This is achieved by polls, active participation in forums and chat-rooms, intellectual debate held across other mediums of communication.

Hi all!

I made a fork of SPH-Sgminer for Groestl algorithm. See here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=652849

If you have AMD GPU, please try it. I'm getting 16.2 MH/s on R9 290 and 7.56 MH/s on R9 270X.

In a few days I'll post 17.0 MH/s R9 290 kernel (I'll post update in this forum).

I'm planning to work on improving this miner in the future.

You don't need to specify difficulty multiplier anymore.

If you have any problems with this miner - please post directly into that forum.

PS: If you are on NVidia, you might want to check out ccMiner 1.1 (it just got got substantional speed increase for Groestl mining)

Thanks





Thank you for sharing this information with us, we will be testing this and if your claims are correct we will spread this as soon as we can amongst the community.
If anyone else has been or is already testing and can confirm this in any way please dont hesitate to do so.

We have been witnessing the same thing, but rest assured this doesnt say anything about the code of AtheistCoin or about Sgminer. However, with what we currently know it is most likely a (temporary) bug in the pool (software). The fact that it seems to be solved at suprnova after ocminer restarted makes that even more plausible. We are trying to get more information, but since the 'bug' is not in our code all we can do is try and find out what is wrong. Rest assured that we will do whatever is in the realm of possibilities.

To all who want to know; We are working very hard for the future of this coin, we don't like to pre-announce so when it is time we will present new ideas and features.
We would appreciate real supporters to join us on our forum and irc chat so that we can make this a successful project together.

At the time being we are working on the basics for easy use and implementation for the general public as well as Crypto-enthousiasts on all different platforms.
Please understand that as the POW phase currently is around 2 years, we are planning to spread out our activity.
We are in no rush or hurry at all, and have full faith that by hard work and dedication we can separate ourselves from other coins and shine a new light upon crypto-currency in general.
