Anybody know if it was only the windows wallet that was compromised? I hesitate to start up my linux wallet laptop to send my coins to newly created wallets. Maybe it's best to recover all wallets from seed on a fresh device...

Please excuse my humble noob question: how do I mine this coin in hiveos?

edit: found out. XMRigcc did the trick!

I believe this is a good idea if the following criterias are met:

1. a static DAG size of 3GB like Flux to support those who only use cheaper older cards

2. A variation of the ETHash algorithm that ASICs can not mine.

Supporting small-scale miners is the path of decentralization, ASICs is the opposite.

I placed an order on 13th of August, got an order confirmation on e-mail. Since a week ago I have e-mailed to ask when it will be shipped as well as put the same question in the contact form on the website. No answers at all. What are you guys doing?

Update on september 4th: Just got a reply. They had received a bad batch of the coins I ordered, so there is a delay.

Update on september 15th: Got my coins.  Seems legit, well packed. I will certainly buy again on bitgild.

Just a word of caution to the flux developers regarding the Nvidia partnership:

Nvidia corporation is heavily influenced and to a great degree owned by Black Rock and Vanguard. These corporations together own essentially all significant corporations of the world as well as all of the biggest banks. This means that they do not benefit from the idea that participants and participants only, control, develop, fund and reap benefit from decentralized technology. It might be a trap to gain influence into potential future web3 infrastructure in preparation to control it like they control web2 now. They do not benefit from the people being in control of their own technology.

It might just not mean anything, but seeing how all the other tech companies behave now, it may be wise to be cautious.

Question:

Is there a desktop wallet that support ellaism? Neither Zelcore or Coinomi has it, I googled and found a mention from four years ago about a desktop wallet called "Ellagem" but find nothing more about it.

Thanks.

You misunderstand my use of  the word. I mean equal in terms of worth & importance and that all hierarchies we create are merely ideas we can choose to agree or not agree upon.

And with "we" I mean all human beings.

I wholly agree, I understand that the definition of decentralization is what is crucial here. I included the framework a cryptocurrency is working within and is dependent of, which is not part of the cryptocurrency itself. -Which does not mean that the cryptocurrency is failing in being decentralized. The main postulation I make in the title is in fact incorrect.

Should I change it?

Thinking a bit more about this, my ponderings are actually about the framework which the crypto is working within and which ideas would be pointing towards possible solutions should that framework in any way break or become intentionally or accidentally limited in terms of the functionality of any blockchain technology.

I like to visualize technology that might be possible in the future, like some quantum scalar-wave communication tech that is not limited to any geographical distance and also not time-delayed like ordinary radio tech. Studying the EPR experiment, quantum entanglement and surrounding research and information strongly suggest, at least to me, that it is very much possible. It would allow for a truly peer-to-peer new "internet", and with open source community-driven hardware as well as software, we would be on the next step towards actual information freedom.

Just babbling on here haha...

Thanks for all the input, all of the answers are valuable to paint the picture so to speak. As much as it might actually be a non-issue now and maybe always, we don't really know what kind of technology will emerge in the future and how big the possibility it will be for any individual to utterly create and/or control ones own piece of tech.

As for "being paranoid"-comments, haha, just look at the world.. Look at it! What the funk are we doing as a species on this planet? Are we not all truly equal? Why do we pretend otherwise? Well, that's another discussion

Again, Thank you all for your input so far.

This is the fundamental reason why the next step of decentralisation is needed to plan for.

"They" do not have the good of "we the people" at heart, which is getting more blatantly obvious by the day now.

No, I didn't know that, but it being possible makes sense.

Otherwise, I enjoy your reflection of my description above. My purpose here is not to criticise, but to see what Ideas could possibly be valid in the future when the next step of the evolution in decentralisation is due. We, as a civilisation, seldom look forward, but seem to stride to keep things as they are, until a next step is forced by crisis or stimulated by genius breakthrough. Without ideas beyond where we are at in any given moment, there is no future but a repetition of the past.

With your argument banks are not centralised either, because there are many banks all over the world.

I know ISP's are not one entity. But they are all centralised in the way that each of them facilitate access for more than one singular user each. I believe that all countries have a cooperation between ISP's and governments, which have the potentiality of ISP's being used as tools by tyrannical leaders to silence opposition. That is the type of centralisation that is definitely not beneficial for humanity.

Indeed, you are correct.

But consider the situation where crypto more or less takes over, and tyrannical leaders use regulation, ISP's and controlled infrastructure to block the whole phenomenon to keep control over the population. We've seen it in several countries already. I believe it is a discussion that needs to be had, not least including people much smarter and more technologically experienced than me.

The blockchain is still on the internet.


The sattellite is connecting to the internet, isn't it?
And, The blockchain is still on the internet.


Which one?


I agree, that is why I want to know what ideas other people have about this. The only decentralized payment method today is to exchange goods and services for other goods and services, which is highly unflexible.

...as of now. As long as we have ISP's who grants us access to the internet, or any part of that internet, hardware-wise and otherwise, is controlled by any central authority or produced non open source.

Don't get me wrong, I love what is going on.  BTC and friends are shaking up the world monetarily and the potential for a future where traditional banks and their power over the little people (that's 99.9999% of us) are no more.  It is a light in the tunnel, if we can keep our eyes from being fooled by the artificial lights designed to lead us back into the darkness.

But. As long as we rely on any centralized system, crypto can not be truly decentalized.  How do we solve this?  What is the next step towards true decentralization? A world-wide cascading network of long range radio devices (HAM, LoRa, etc) that people can assemble and program themselves?

What do you think? Or are the fundamentals I presented above faulty? Please let me know!

Bitcoin Cash (BCH) was, I think, supposed to solve this problem. I sent my last BCH into an exchange to swap them, it only took 45 minutes to be confirmed, what a f***ing joke. Z-cash at least confirms in a few minutes. But a few minutes still is too long to stand and wait in a store for a quick purchase. It'll be interesting to see what LN can do for bitcoin...

Hi.

I continued searching and indeed found that this issue seems quite common, and I did just that which you proposed. Works nice, and I'm happy I am not bound to special startup sequences or such anymore. After tweaking I found the most efficient setting with mt 5, core 75, 111 PL with 31.13 Mh @ 115w measured. Touching memory clock at all wouldn't work. The eth pill in nbminer was just a tad more efficient (-0.1W/h), but not worth the trouble as t-rexminer has higher efficiency on all the other cards.

Thanks, going forward now.

Hello!

K so, I'm mew to GPU-mining. I bought a BTC-T37, 1600w PSU and three 1060 6GB Asus cards and got it all working very good in hiveOS, more cards on the way.

Today I got a Gigabyte "GTX 1080 8 GB G1 Gaming" with  Micron GDDR5X memory. I watched the youtubes and searched the interwebs for where to start and all went well until I activated "the pill".

In t-rex I get a "can't find nonce" error before crash, in phoenixminer and MBminer I also get errors. The card says "rev 1.0" on it so I set the pill delay to -50 and just by a fluke I tested some settings that some youtuber had (core 50, mem 500, PL 110, pill on) with NBminer and it started hashing at 30Mh+ Wonderful!, but... as soon as I try another miner, it crashes. As soon as I change any frequency or PL value, it crashes. The only way I have found to make it get going again is to turn off the pill, reboot the worker, let it get going on the above mentioned values in NBminer for a couple of minutes, and then turn on the pill. Been stable for 3 hours with 100% accepted shares now.

Any ideas?

My monitors broke and I only have laptops so I can't check motherboard bios settings until I get a monitor (on it's way). When it crashes, oftentimes any restarted miner can't find any GPU at all, that tells me it can be a bios setting issue (like Gen 1, gen 2 etc), but I don't know...
