1  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Antminer V9 4TH on: September 26, 2019, 07:23:56 AM
I have an unusual situation.  Free power with rent as a deal with the landlord. So I picked up a T9+ but the controller quit from a mishap with oil cooling that turned conductive.  (no leds, no response on ipscan, intermittent, then dead).  However, my friend has a new in box V9.  Is it possible to reflash a V9 board to utilize the 3 good hash boards I have on the T9+ ?
I probed the T9+ board to discover that it's not a complete circuit anymore near the cpu itself. Only partially some of the circuits are live on a logic probe.

So the question is, these controller boards have six sockets for hash boards, how do they know which chips are on them, programmed beforehand? If so, then one would assume that you can flash the board for the correct hash boards attached. I'm more familiar with BIOS updates on motherboards from Intel, gpus, and not sure about the architecture driving these hash boards. ?

The ArQmA Network Status Report for December 2018 / January 2019

Seasons Greetings fellow ArQmA community! We hope you had a great holiday and rang in the New Year well. Some of the ArQmA team worked the weekends and some late night hours to get all the huge amounts of code changes completed.

The fork on 12/4 went well here's a brief list of changes that improved the ArQmA network.

0. A large amount of internal wallet security checks, locks, encryption while the application is running to prevent hacks and surveillance attempts.

1. A two minute block time which increases the transaction rate for faster confirmations of coins sent and received. This also helps speed up the payment gateway when it reaches test release.

2. The daily emission is about 14150 ARQ coins a day, so there is an expansion of the supply of coins. Smoothly decreasing on the same curve setting similar as before.

3. The fork included the release of Devil's Gate .2.2 with a CLI wallet release, a GUI release, and updated source for Linux. Over a 100 changes internally in the code which makes it more robust and capable of supporting the payment gateway, and less of the limitations of Monero.

4. Sorry for the delay in releasing the GUI for Mac OS. But it's available on the main ArQmA download site.

5. QR code scanning and generation was added to the GUI wallet.

6. New options to hide your balance from shoulder surfers, and a timer lockout requiring a password re-entry was added.

7. Hardware wallet, cold storage wallet support was added to the GUI wallets.

8. A few bugs related to the lwma-4 difficulty algorithm tuning and the RPC wallet services were rectified within a few days of the 12/4 release of Devil's Gate .2.1.

9. A new method of merged mining appeared on two pools which allow mining of multiple coins if you mine ArQmA there. They produce Iridium coins (IRD) for you as you mine ArQmA currently. The two pools that offer this so far are Smartcoinpool, and Semipool.
Consult with those pools that offer this option it for specific configuration. Technically, there are other similar coins you can get additional rewards on that use the same algorithm, cn-lite variant 1. At last count, it appears that also Turtle coin, BitcoiNote, Worktips, BBScoin, and others can be merge mined. Please do consider evening the distribution of hash rate to prevent centralization on the network. ArqTras is experimenting with merged mining also as possibly an adjunct to the development pool.

10. The draft of the white paper is almost complete illustrating in more detail about the payment gateway and it's impact and adoption on e-commerce systems. Argonator compiled most of the information, at nearly 50 pages. He also gives credit to SmajenZ0, Pizza Mind, and Bob also for suggestions and critique.

11. With all the updates for the GUI wallet and underlying structure of code have been tested, development of the Android and iPhone wallet is continuing by Michal and ArqTras. The private repository and auto build system is being fine tuned further to generate public source releases.

12. The web wallet was taken down, it's being rebuilt on a fresh install on a faster server. We apologize for the inconvenience. It will eventually come back online. You can still use the GUI wallet or CLI wallet to access your coins. No coins are lost since they are stored on the blockchain.

13. An ArQmA GUI manual in wiki html format is being worked on by Argonator. It's a skeleton draft at this moment, but he is listening for ideas from the community on suggestions to include. Once it is fleshed out in a majority, it hopefully will become an editable tree of instructions, guides, tips, how-tos, and expert level reading on advanced transactions.

Happy New Year! Thanks for supporting us and participating. The ArQmA Team.

Summary: The ArQmA network is hybridizing into an internally checking system that increases anti tampering efforts from external and internal hacks.
This puts the software close to something that antivirus companies do to prevent bugs and attempts to block other programs from stealing information and using it against the programs.
Michal said thus in Telegram the other day:

Michal vel m@lbit - - - https://arqma.com, [14.09.18 15:55]
We have added many security procedures to new daemon as well to wallets. Rpc as long simplewallet

After a while you will not be able to see balance either blockchain height while refreshing without putting wallet password
But password is shadowed and console listening is off
Everything is made in memory which is wiped straight after you press enter
All keys (private and public) are coded all the time and keys files are locked
Keys are become decoded and unlocked only while needed and no data is stored on any drive
All is made in memory on-the-fly and after pressing Enter memory is wiped
Bulletproofs becoming to be mandatory as well
We are staying at v9 blockchain so far because at v10 blockchain we will introduce multi-bulletproofs outputs
What else?
Unlocked daemon-mining threads
Till now you can mine direct at daemon using only one thread. Since now you will be able to use more than one thread
Every data send over Arq-Net is verified and crypted by 32 bit key
On top of that you can choose how many times your keys will be encrypted. By default is set to 1
------------------------
This also might mean that after the hard fork, we should be able to pass the bar for getting an antivirus companies from arbitrarily banning ArQmA software.
Currently some of the programs are in the WS.Reputation.1 bucket of category without a code review or testing on the part of antivirus companies like Symantec.
One could say that's lazy on their part since they are supposed to judge programs on their behavior and look at the code and results. (Argonator's judgement, so be it.)
Crypto currently is here, and it's really slothful to not catch up and start qualifying good versus bad crypto applications.

Now, this is proof that this coin is not just a copy pasta coin, new coded added, more security, and a second fork in less than 120 days likely to bring the improvements online.

My wallet work now. But ... devs are ... Grin
Because they forgot a '-'? Pffff, loose the attitude man.

In the html FAQ we specifically went and used back ticks to separate the double dash so that it is more readable like this `--`. It was there all along in the ASCII text file version as "--" . Some text based chat programs do not do the display or conversion on every system with clarity.  This is why it's easier to read on a html web page as the unique back ticks make it more readable.  The FAQ is available at: https://arqma.com/faq/ . Go see for yourself if you like.
 
Also, the text to the right in parenthesis in the ASCII version of the FAQ says that it is a double dash. Which is a typical way of passing parameters in Linux based applications.
FAQ Quote:
Also, you can access a GUI wallet created with the CLI application using either the mnemonic seed phrase, or the address and your private spend key.
Just execute the CLI daemon, then execute the wallet cli with the following parameter:
"arqmad.exe"  (Run the daemon first)
"arqma-wallet-cli —restore-deterministic-wallet"   (double dash means it's an option command at the cli/cmd prompt.)
EndQuote:

You can see a screenshot of the new and improved formatting here: https://imgur.com/gallery/3iaoXmO

Hope this clears things up. You asked, we delivered.

WEB wallet not work
Win wallet not work
Fking shitcoin. LOL


https://arqma.com/faq-linux-cli/ or https://arqma.com/faq-windows-cli/.

As you know we are an open source project and everybody can contribute.


Cheers,



And here is an example answer in the FAQ.  All the wallets are the same and accessible via cross platform and multiple applications.
Here is more detail:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
FAQ
Question : "The web wallet is offline for maintenance, can I access my ArQmA coins elsewhere? ",

Answer:
The wallets are all the same.   The blockchain for ArQmA is a ledger by which amounts debited or credited for each address is accounted for.  As you mine the coins you are credited and paid on the blockchain. Alternatively, you also get paid by the pool operators for mining on a pool.
If you purchased ArQmA on an exchange and deposited them to your personal wallet address, they are safely stored on the blockchain. There they stay forever, until spent or moved.

The wallet addresses generated by whichever wallet application can be accessed by other wallet applications. For example the web wallet can be accessed with the mnemonic seed using a CLI wallet application. Or, the GUI wallet can be accessed by the CLI wallet given you have the .keys and .dat file, and the current password.
Also, you can access a GUI wallet created with the CLI application using either the mnemonic seed phrase, or the address and your private spend key.
Just execute the CLI daemon, then execute the wallet cli with the following parameter:
"arqmad.exe" (Run the daemon first)
"arqma-wallet-cli —restore-deterministic-wallet"   (double dash means it's an option command at the cli/cmd prompt.)
Also you can access any wallet given the mnemonic seed phrase within the Gui wallet selecting the "Restore from Seeds or keys option" after selecting your language to operate the program in.
  "What if I forgot the current password for the wallet or someone changed it?"
If you can just click cancel at the beginning of your GUI wallet password prompt, select language and then restore the wallet with your mnemonic seed phrase or keys.
The program will ask you to specify a password for the local wallet file stored on your device.

You can view and write down your viewkeys and spendkeys also with the CLI or GUI application. Under the CLI application use the command " viewkey", In the GUI application select "Seed and Keys" on the left side panel just under settings and enter your current wallet password when prompted. (insert graphic here)

Also, when a phone wallet (Android or iPhone?) wallet becomes available you can restore access to the wallet which is can be done using the mnemonic seed phrase.   The software might also have the option for restore given the wallet address and your private spendkey.

This is why it is important to have at least written down your mnemonic seed phase at the beginning of using your ArQmA wallet along with your address.  You can access your funds in many different ways with the above examples.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
How to get started with ArQmA?
Got to https://github.com/arqma/arqma/releases and download what you need.
Windows users can download the 64bits compiled binaries.
Extract files from zip and put them in a folder.
In this example we will use "C:\Users\Nobody\arqma".
Start cmd.exe and navigate to your folder.
Image

Then start your deamon with "arqmad.exe" and let it sync. It will take a while.
You will see many messages on your window like the following:
"2018-07-11 18:05:32.648 [P2P4]  INFO    global  src/cryptonote_protocol/cryptono
te_protocol_handler.inl:1172    ←[1;33m[70.231.32.24:34028 INC]  Synced 501/9737"
The important part is "Synced 501/9737". We have to wait until the daemon is synced with the network.
Image
Once done you will see the message "SYNCHRONIZED OK".
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to create a wallet address with CLI-wallet?
Start cmd.exe and navigate to your folder.
Image
Then start the wallet with "arqma-wallet-cli.exe"
Image
Enter a wallet file name. Confirm.
Choose a password. Confirm the password. Choose your language. 1 for English.
Now look at the output.  Your address has been created.
Image
Your address begins with "ar".
You see there is a list of 25 words. You have to note these words on a piece of paper and store it in a safe place. With these words you can recover your wallet anytime.
To know your address when logged in the CLI wallet you can issue the command "address".
You can also get the 25 words using the command "seed".
You can force the wallet to synchronize with the daemon issuing the command "refresh".
There is also a function "help" to list all functions of the CLI wallet.
You exit the wallet using the command "exit".
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to restore your wallet using the CLI wallet?
Start the CLI wallet using the following command:
arqma-wallet-cli.exe  --restore-deterministic-wallet
Image
Specify a new wallet filename.
Then you are prompted to enter your 25 words.
Image
Then press "Enter". Choose a new password. Confirm password. Press "Enter" again and let it sync.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to fix missing coins?
Stop arqmad daemon.
Go to "C:\ProgramData\arqma" delete all files within folders.
Restart deamon and let it sync.
Restore wallet from seeds (25 words).
Wait for full sync and your coins should show up.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to transfer some $ARQ?
Start the CLI wallet.
To know the command you can issue "help transfer".
Command usage:
 transfer [index=<N1>[,<N2>,...]] [<priority>] [<ring_size>] <address> <amount>
where:
"priority" is how fast you want to send arqma coin. Valid values in priority order (from lowest to highest) are: unimportant, normal, elevated, priority. The higher the priority, the higher the transaction fee.
"ringsize"  is the number of inputs to include for untraceability. Typically, 7 is normal. Highest level is 41 and will create more transactions which might increase the fee.
"address" is the wallet address you wish to send coins to.
"payment_id" A payment id provided by the recipient.  Such as for exchanges that like to receive with that id. Or, you can generate your own with the payment_id command.
example: "transfer normal 7 wallet address amount"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The included screenshots are available also on the website.

where is the fucking GUI wallet? and the coin down to earth after the wallet was frozen on altex. and what the hell is this guy talking about? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4474605.msg40939012#msg40939012

are you fucking russian dev really a group of scammer like this damn guy talking about? oh, yes. you damn dev had clarified. thanks!


If you believe to somebode who putting the same posts to every new coin then I have no answer.
And NO. We are not Russians. Our Team is multi-national. Some of us are from Poland, some from Switzerland, Canada and USA.

We would like to apologise for the delay with GUI Wallet and maintenance at WebWallet. We are working very hard on both.

I would like to assure all of you who was using WebWallet that NO COINS WERE LOST!!! All of them are safe and you dont need to worry about. Today evening CET WebWallet along with GUI should be released and ready to work. We just need couple hours to finish work and tests.

I would like to thank for you patience. For more info and to be up-to-date, please step it to our discord and telegram groups.



Well the GUI wallet is available at:
https://backup.arqma.com/DevilsGUI.zip

On Friday the 13th no less.

Enjoy!

----------------------------------------------

The ArQmA Network status update for the month of June 12, 2018 to July 11th.

There has been less development activity on some coins in six months, compared that to what has been done in less than a month here.
Just keeping it real and accurate. You might not get as much accountability and honesty in other coins/icos/projects.

In less than a month the following things were accomplished:

Launch of the blockchain network with DDOS resiliency at the core of the network.
Cloudflare was turned on for the main website, miner pool of Arqma Main, and several nodes.  This mostly mitigates DDOS attacks and the servers are distributed across the planet.
Several hacker attempts thwarted with firewalls and active patrolling. 
The mining never stopped.  The block number is now appoximately 9800, cruising towards 10,000.

The discord server was created by ArQmA-King,  and a pool operations channel to deal with configuration, error mitigation, and coordination to changes when the need arises.
Pools were paid coin and helped payouts process through the changes in the wallet CLI and daemon/pool code. Nobody lost out.

The block explorer page was updated, and a mining calculator was added also.

Jason (@jaegerman42) joined the developer team and helped with code, deployment, and help resolve the #3985 defect issues.

The network daemon was updated three times including DNS SEC, and a bug patch of the #3985 which affected exchanges.
That defect, #3985,  was sitting there for 25+ days that was unverfied.  It affected most of the cryptonote based coins going to certain exchanges depending on which Monero code base they were on.

No coins were lost. The perpetrators of the attack on the exchange were banished from altex.exchange.

Code that runs is easy, good code that works and has no bugs and securitry defects is hard. The developers caught a nasty one and dealth with it.
It delayed the progress of the development of the GUI and web wallet as a priority one bug affecting the security of the coins on the exchange.

The web wallet worked, but has some back end error messages that illustrate the glitchines of code that either needs and overhaul or deploy something else.
So a better web wallet portal is under work.  We appreciate your patience.  It's going to be secure and doesn't hold or leak out any information for any transaction as usual.

The cost of transactions were lowered again with the release of 1.2.5 The Devil's Touch code, daemon, and CLI wallet.

Progress on the GUI wallet was slowed due to numerous things needed to be worked on at the same time.
GUI wallet Alpha first run testing was cycled four times by Argonator at each step of the CLI/daemon to make sure it wasn't buggy.
It's in beta to be relased soon. It has similar features to Monero's GUI wallet. Sample screenshots are available on the Telegram channel.

Other exchanges have been applied for, paid for, an are in process, ArQmA is waiting on them. Yes, that is plural, 2 now.
Part of the agreement with the exchanges is that we cannot announce the names of them. Sorry, it's their deal.

We appreciate your faith in mining, good mining without hacks, asics, no nethash raids, and what you mine is yours.

The ArQmA Team.

GUYS RUN AWAY FROM THIS SCAM
Their network was down for 2nd time in 2 weeks

I am following them on telegram group and they had no idea what to do

1. they are not answering any questions
2. now they started deleting posts from some guy who asked why is current block mined with 45000% difficulty and after that blocks with 500-600% difficulty when they claim to have algorhytm to have faster finding blocks
3. guys are speaking russian, we all know how russian ICO's work
4. they are active in GRAFT group posting memes with "THIS IS GRAAAAAAFT" (this was apparently some kind of joke)
5. they are posting their rigs photos on telegram group.

so we have project with huge premined amount of coins, with NO roadmap, with NO whitepaper, their network that is going down every couple of days, bunch of problems (max 5 coins send for example) and russian admins with bunch of rigs.

good luck, sheeps!




1 .Damn right your postings and FUD with a slant to berate the orderly mining, safe mining, and spreading FUD will be deleted on Telegram. I even kept a copy of the whole thing if anyone wants to account for his version of the story. This sad person needs psychiatric help as a psychopath who wants 50x their investment in days or some unrealistic question answered.  Timing it with attacks on the network of Arqma twice with references to my chats with you before with knowledge that you could know under a different identity.  That means you are floating around anonymously trying to manipulate the admins or influence public opinion.  

I have seen threads on forums, chats, and repetitive cycles of FUD in slick style just to manipulate the price on exchanges and competitive factions between coins.  You are somewhere in that continuum.

2. Gee, the network was attacked, then you complain about the 40000% effort blocks that you probably caused or had a proxy partner do it.  Same kind of attack, repeating yourself for the implied effect that you want to throw a tantrum.  I bet you are one of those kinds of people that injure themselves deliberately falling down in grocery stores, and then shake down insurance companies for payments.

3. I speak English, Spanish, read Latin, read Old English, and can understand some German. As a matter of fact some software QA testers like me can do localization in several languages not even spoken on their continent.  I'm surprised you didn't pick on my German lineage with English/Finnish looks. Just because I am German looking or sounding, doesn't mean I am German or share their values. Same for ArqTras who I know can speak three languages. This kind of statement you make is trying to play off the meme of bigotry and hatred with a slice of racism. Too bad, I am an American with a lineage going back to 1650 in New Brunswick and Boston. So that makes me partly Canadian in a way. Sorry.

4. Humor, either you get it , or you don't. That posting was on the Graft Blockchain channel and not Arqma's you re-posted it there yourself. Just so you can point it out on the channel. Anyone want to discuss what's allowable?  It was a sticker on the Telegram app, the admins in the Graft channel didn't delete it, so it must fit within community standards there. I left it on my channel also.  

5. Posting pictures of my slow hardware build and recycled parts , low end machines, 2.5KH cnv7, 4KH aeon7.  Big deal. As a matter of fact I have pictures of machines and hardware going back to 1995.  Accomplishments. Not trying to be an egotist.  It's real, I did it, and nobody can take it away or say that I didn't do it.

---- As a natter of fact here's a response by Argonator to the hater who keeps changing IDs daily like shirts.... Posted on Telegram:
---------------------------------
Argo Nator, [26.06.18 00:18]
Coins were covered, firewall hardened . Blocks kept mining even though the changeover.

Argo Nator, [26.06.18 00:20]
Crypto is fun, the full anxiety moments of a network outage covering a whole building of corporate presidents can be a bit harder.

Argo Nator, [26.06.18 00:25]
Been there, done that. At Freightliner, Nike, Tektronix.Snobs at ACS Apple/Xerox there were clients that always had a scowl on their face and a chip on their shoulder. Talk about head games. So if some troll wants to complain and whine about their lack of making it in the world, they will. Haters gonna hate.  Because those who do, CAN. Those who CANNOT, lie , cheat, spread rumors, troll, hype, pump-n-dump, hack, or generally run into a big dog and get creamed.

Did I mention that my location is in the USA? Yep, and I am not Russian. I am not German. I am an American.

Do you see how this posting is similar to the others under different online identities here ? He can't even be creative enough to change the font, size, wording.
Typical copy pasta FUD and anger.

dev pool is broken nobody cares please avoid mining this shitcoin (lost 0.2 ltc on it)
FUD and your pool payout was processed. It's on the block chain. Proof of send.
Take it up with ArqTras and M@lbit directly. It's simple as that.
Arqma's owners and devs already stated on telegram that pools who fall short of paying coins out will be paid.  And in turn those miners who mined.
If there is a pool that doesn't, they will be corrected or addressed.

Please stop spreading the FUD with multiple identities on Telegram, here, and elsewhere with different bits of the story slanted to cast a stink.
Quoting out of context seems to be your favorite modus operandi.
I kept logs of your conversations with me and on the Telegram channel.  Several witnesses to the main chat channel were there and will back me and the admins/devs up.

When the moderators here catch up to this, you might be gone, for a while, then come back. So. Settle up your differences and go on.
Put down the rock and get on with mining something else if you can't stand the heat in the kitchen, attack the net, then blame for slow payments.

The block chain mining didn't completely stop over the past four days in two attacks. As a matter of fact, the pool operators kept in synch with changes and we had a real time chat to correct things. No blocks were lost, there was a pop of +120 blocks and no coins were lost.
You can sync from block 1, no fork, no alt chains, and compare with copies from last week if you like. 

Go ahead ad infinitum... Spin master.  The admins and pool operators that oversee the same logs would not let things go sideways.
Did any the pools leave?  No.  If it was a complete crap network, they would stop and fold up shop.

If it was such a bad thing they would be on here barking and screaming too.

You are one minor rabble rouser causing trouble.

Hey guys, how can I create my local wallet of ArQmA? I don't familiar with setting up on Github, still really need SO can clearly guide? Thank you.
You can use webwallet.arqma.com -> we are working with update for it, also in few days we put GUI wallet 1st release.

Update on Github available. New CLI daemon to fix these issues at:
https://github.com/arqma/arqma/releases
Both the source and Windows x64 release is available now.

No coins were lost in this change, it is not a fork , just a medium level bug fix.
Since the daemon and the seed remote daemon was updated, the web wallet works the same as it always has, with less tx fees.

Both M@blit and Arqtras need a kudos bar delivered for this one. One line of code changed to fix the unspent wallet coins hanging at the altex.echange.
The testing revealed less tx transactions trying to break up large transactions and caused increased fees. That was against the design and is now fixed.
Altex has been notified and will right on it with the updates.
I spent the evening looking at combinations and permutations in testing for bugs and weird transactions. No flukes observed.

The pool for Hyperion, https://arq.multiminer.us/ had a backlog of payments that went out as soon as he upgraded.

The total supply at 50 millions is a good amount I think.
For me it's in the perfect number for the total supply, I think it will have a good level of price in the future.

And just think, the coins are Nicehash and ASIC free. What is mined on the pools is more of your share of the net hash total. Lower fees from pools and transaction fees are lower sending and receiving to other accounts. Tongue

The alternative is pool hopping, paying for Nicehash orders where you might be profitable or not, just to arbitrage the fact that your mining rig is more important. It surely levels the playing field.

dev pool is broken nobody cares please avoid mining this shitcoin (lost 0.2 ltc on it)
How can you lose .2 ltc coins when there was no ICO to buy in with?  Arqma is cryptonote based, not ltc based.

The pool status server was moved to a new IP this morning is all. Geo DNS was brought back up and resynced within 20 minutes. Meanwhile the total downtime for the mining server was less than 10.

There are other pools that kept on mining while this was going on, the web wallet works. The CLI wallet works.
I even tried to hack the wallets myself by trying double spending and some other silly things.  I could not get it to misbehave.

See for yourself at https://arqma.com/pools-explorer/ and click on the list of pools in the explorer.
 
A mining calculator was added today by the web dev. It even took into account the drop in network difficulty in the last few hours using the current setting.
https://www.coincalculators.io/coin.aspx?crypto=arqma-mining-calculator

I tested the GUI beta for Windows last night and only found a few cosmetic things needed to be fixed. Some of which are in other GUI wallets from the source at Github so that's progress.  It should be done soon.

Some random pool tried to connect yesterday and do naughty things. It was blocked. A DDOS attack was attempted at 1Gbits and didn't stop the dev's pool site. However it was migrated to an another net anyway.

I added a spreadsheet a few days ago for bench marking results and settings for the cryptonite_light_v7/aeon7 algo.  Surprisingly 2-2.25x faster hash rate even with older cards. The AMD Ryzen and Xeon CPUs are getting hash rates that some GPUs put out.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/183MG7RAwlPSBUhSVJf7PssHkMgmXxTmDh21XJh7Y-T8/edit#gid=0

Updating the CLI wallet with instructions in the program for the dev to fix. A better readme.txt and help on deciphering the transfer help function. I still can't believe that the CLI wallet has gone out there across so many coins worded like that. It looks and reads like a programmer would spew [] <> symbols in there that aren't actually used by the user.  The phrasing is terrible with examples that are backwards in some deployments for various coins.

dude didnt you dev another premine coin like a month ago? 
 
 
edit:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3394028 

This.
How many coins do they launch every week? Smiley

Both ArqTras(security and design) and Michal M@lbit(made the wallet gui) WERE developers for the old INTU coin, but were NOT the owners of the coin project and their direction. The owner wouldn't listen to security concerns and design. The owner drove the thing into the ground.  Intucoin is an ASIC mined plain cryptonight algo without v7, that was mined and dumped by those Baikal and Bitmain boxes out there.  The design was set by the owner before the release of those ASICs.

 


Sure lol.

Thank God this project is so much more like "we really like crypto" and "this decentralized super dooper privacy coin will be adopted in the banks" lol.

See you next month with new shitcoin.

Since the code is open sourced and can be re-used, in theory you could make a new coin in a week of just copy pasta and compile without knowing what you are doing truly. This is why there are 1500+ coins out there right now, and most will fail when they don't put a real product or unique design that separates them from the rest of the pack.  Look what happened to ETN, ETNX, and the attacks on Haven, LOKI and possibly ETN. ETN is still scrambling to put in a few fixes by other devs to prevent 51% arbitrage nicehash attacks that might happen.

Arqma was redesigned to thwart those problems. Ask the devs for technical steps they are taking specifically to halt, mitigate, and prevent those issues. So far, you can't nicehash the coin because nicehash doesn't do this algorithm variant.  I've seen the screenshots of prevention of certain kinds of attacks.

which algo is the coin used?cryptonight lite or cryptonight lite v7??

It's known at "aeon7" in xmr-stak , or "cryptonite_light_v7" which is variant 1 actually of the Monero fork post v7.
Arguably this is this confusing until someone agrees on what the algo is really called.  But, these two settings work for the mining applications.
Discussion is on reddit here:

18  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Mining with "obsolete" graphics cards (memory<2GB) on: June 15, 2018, 10:15:37 AM

Older GPUs need to use Nicehash legacy. Latest clients do not support older GPUs

NiceHash Legacy is Windows-only up to date. Still need Windows driver. So we are again stuck with 8-GPU maximum for old ADM drivers (ex latest windows driver for HD6990 by AMD is Crimson 15.7).

You can used other mining applications and just point to the nicehash pool addresses.  
For example you can run xmr-stak instead of using the latest excavator or Nicehash legacy miner for even an old HD6870 with a mix of Nvidia cards also.

The lowest card I've gotten to work on Nvidia is compute 2.0 cards that are at least based on the gf100 Fermi chipset or later. Even 1GB cards such as the GTX 460,465, 560, 650, and 590, and Quadros will mine pretty good for cryptonight algo, v7, and lite including the v1 variant.
A good site to check monero hashrates is with http://monerobenchmarks.info/index.php, I have been adding the older cards as I come across them.

The lowest efficiency award goes to is the Tesla s2050,c2050,m2070 cards with the 341.81 driver and then install the older cuda 8 toolkit for Windows 7 x64.
On Windows 10 x64 , as soon as you install a Geforce card of the latest driver 391.01 or later you get cuda support for all the fermi or later cards. Even the older Tesla cards just need the basic driver installed, then the geforce driver for cuda can be installed.  They are cheap, power hungry, but if you are off grid renewable or free power, go for it.
There is a build of genoil's ethminer that can mine 3.8 mh per tesla m2070(6gb ram). use the Nicehash Legacy 1.75 ethminer.
There was redo of that github repository, I think it was called Mist. I will edit if i can find it again.

Retire them to folding@home after not being able to keep up with the AMD boys.  The fpga cards might just damned the lot of GPUs to archaic realms anyway.

I am also convinced by the idea and a strategy like that in the future will more and more participants.

I've talked with one of the devs for the past four months and he is honest, forthright and hates the games that were going on with 51% attacks, disproportionate centralized pools, unknown pools hogging the coins.  I've been around the circuit a few too many times on receiving nicehash attacks, lost coins from bad pools, and am sick of getting whacked with high fees at every turn. This is a pool for miners by miners and have a cadre of advanced people operating the pools.


I do love that the CPU mining can be equivalent in hash rate to some mid range GPUs since each thread only takes 1mb of cache instead of 2mb.

I heard that future developments might be DNS sec for pools with some registration for POW/POS accountability.
The donation pool listed on github has the address and a viewkey for transparent accountability.
