I swear those nodes in the OP keep making my blockchain sync fail. Every time I add them, the sync fails seconds after

I liked the way genesis block was launched... The Ethereum launch was super convoluted and a massive fuck around. Sure, it was secure, but all of Vitalik's nerd friends got first dibs on the easy blocks. This way was much more fair

Balance keeps dancing around like crazy, lol never thought I'd want to see difficulty increase before

Anyone know how to find the current difficulty?

Has anyone had any disk failures yet? Been mining Burst on 6 HDDs for almost a year now without any issues. Guess this coin isn't too bad for HDDs.

Been holding Burst for ages now but stopped watching it a few months back. Ecstatic to see an active community still exists for this coin, and the dev still (slightly) active. Surprised to see the price has been doing so poorly despite such an innovative project with active developments. But I guess most altcoins suffer in price in times of Bitcoin recession. I'm still optimistic for the future of this project, and I'll buy some more Burst to keep my average buy price down. Sorry I can't do more for Burst, keep on fighting the good fight.

Are there any multipools  for GPUs or ASICs that payout in BURST? I'd love to jump on one of those

Would it be possible for anyone to create an AT that allows automated sports betting by using a results API from ESPN? Would of been awesome to of bet BURST on the outcome of the superbowl. I would of lost though  Grin

Here's the problem.. maybe not unsolvable and would be curious to hear your thoughts.  How can you get in the decentralized results into the blockchain in a trustless manner?  Or would you prefer to trust a message coming from a specific address, such as ESPN?

Not saying it's impossible.. but it becomes a tricky problem.

My thought is that maybe you could pay miners to pull in the data and use a decentralized feed, that operates similar to the decentralized timestamps.  Probably could even all pull from the same feed.  Would need to allow miners to say that they don't want to participate though or you could have bigger problems.
I'm no expert nor a programmer so take whatever I say with a grain of salt.

I don't believe it's necessary that the information source used to decide the outcome of the bet be decentralised, only trusted. To make a bet, both parties would have to agree on an information source to decide the outcome of the bet, or for extra security 2 or 3 information sources that would all have to agree on the outcome.
Theoretically, the trusted information source, say ESPN could get in on the bet and alter the published outcome so they win, but the trust they would lose would be worth much more than any amount of money they could win in a single bet. Also using more than one information source would minimize this possibility forward.

The only crucial component that must be trustless and decentralised is the actual entity holding and sending the money to the winner (ie an AT in the blockchain).

Is anyone using Blago's miner with vista 64 / windows 7?

I have two pc's and have tried it on both, but if running on either one all the
system ram 16GB gets eaten up and then it crashes, I can only get it to run
for about 20-40 mins.

Any ideas?

I read somewhere that it could be due to drive caching, not directly the miner itself.
Runarufu miner works well without ram issues, but wanted to compare performance.



You plotted with too big of a stagger size and it's eating it all when you mine. If you optimize the drives they wont eat memory.


Doesn't a plot optimizer make the stagger size as large as possible? Is there a tool that doesn't do this?
1032  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][BURST] Burst | Efficient HDD Mining | New 1.2.1 Automated Transactions on: January 24, 2015, 08:11:14 AM
Hmmm maybe I'm not fully understanding this. Looking at the read numbers in Resource Monitor, on the Intel setup, it's reading the drives at about 16Mb/s, there is no way it could finish the entire drive in 106s at that speed. So mining doesn't read the whole drive, just parts of it?
PoC reads 1 4096th of the data each block, or more simply 256MB / TB.

PoC2 will most likely be around 16MB / TB
Will PoC2 be adapted to Burst or are you planning on created a completely new coin?

Are there any analytics for this? Anywhere I can see how many points have been earned because of this coin? I would be awesome to have a stats page showcasing how much computing power has been given to FaH because of this coin
Currently we have to ways:

The first shows all FLDC participants even those not on our team 226728. This can be found in the upper right hand corner of our website http://foldingcoin.net/ This is the actual total and is run once a day. Currently 1,099,730,217 FAH credits are from FLDC participants

The second is a third party website. They only show the stats for participants on our team 226728 though, but its a great source http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/team_summary.php?s=&t=226728


We do plan on creating our own stats page though on our website this year that will combine the 2. Also it should have the ability to merge different usernames based on their addresses so even if someone changes their username, can still have all their stats combined to see their total. When releasing the new Merged folding soon, this feature will be much needed.
Cool, that's really interesting to see. Joined the team, should get into the top 20 in a day or two Smiley
Great Cheesy Glad to have another high end "folder" with us! Remember, now you are no longer a "miner", you are now a "folder" Smiley
Not that high of capacity, I take that back. Was looking at the 24hr average and thinking it was total points :p

http://burstcoin.mku.name:8080 feature update:
  • showing MA21 instead of MA50
  • MA21 and MA7 are now displayed in the chart in area-style
  • blockreward is displayed in the chart now
  • MA7 is displayed in the sum-tables
  • calculation is now done up to today and not the last day with transactions/blocks
This is awesome, thanks a lot!

I can't seem to gain access to my clams. I import wallet, type in password then nothing happens. What's weird is if I type in the wrong password still nothing happens. My wallet isn't synced yet though, could that be why?

EDIT: Found the answer to my own question. Yes, that is why. The ditribution clams weren't created in the genesis block, but in a range of blocks spanning past block 4000

How much plots can I make on 4GB space?
16384 I think but that won't get you much burst

Cool idea, but I'd definitely suggest changing the name. Something like Fitcoin or anything that doesn't make me think of a cartoon mango
