Does anyone know if there is a way to check the balance of a wallet? I want to see where all the blocks are going  In the console window you can type 'getbalance' to see the total value of mature coins you have. If you type 'getbalance ""' (that's getbalance with two double-quotes after it), it will give you the total of both mature and immature funds. Thanks! That's handy  Any way to see a balance of anyone elses wallet? Or see if the blocks that are being mined are being set to a specific wallet/address? Whenever a block is mined, it is sent to an address generated by your client. A new address is generated for each one. If you type 'help' in the console, you will get a list of all the commands available and their syntax. |

Lol, installed fabrizziop's build and mined a block with it inside 20 sec  Both fabrizziop and Chemisist will be getting a little tip from me shortly  Thanks for your efforts. |

I seem to remember build-msw.md being aimed at building on Windows. |

How to set genproclimit (cpu) to maximum capacity?
You don't set a genproclimit and it uses full cpu capacity. You only set it if you want to throttle it. So how can I throttle it? 'setgenerate true <number of threads you want to use, or -1 for all available>' |

Either 'setgenerate true' or 'setgenerate true -1' will cause it to use all capacity. |

Client node has no API support yet. Feel free to propose an API format for e.g. getwork.
Based on the above quote from Sunny King, it seems that the client simply has no API support for miners at all at the moment. I think that needs to be done first before any miner program, BFGMiner or otherwise, can mine Primecoins... Or am I missing something here? |

Any update or responses to some of the posts and questions? A lot of us are watching this very closely, this is a race, and Steamboat seems to be winning.
Updated the website with our office address. Final moving in tomorrow. Anybody who wants to come visit can call us for an appointment. We are still deciding whether to accept Paypal/CC/Bank Transfers. The modular boards, even if ordered without a case, will come with heatsinks.
The DX Mini supports 20 K16s, not 10. For those who won't use the search functionality. |

Was tired of trying to add immature blocks up so heres some dirty bash too get it done, I'm sure someone has a much better solution. echo `./primecoind listtransactions "" 1000 | grep -A1 category | grep -A1 'immature\|generate' | grep amount | awk -F" " '{print $3}' | awk -F, '{printf "%s +",$1}'` 0 | bc
Edit: this doesn't account for sent. If I'm not mistaken, the balance command alone (i.e. './primecoind balance') will give you the total of only mature blocks, but if you include the account parameter (i.e. './primecoind balance ""'), it will give you the total of all blocks, both mature and immature. All you have to do is subtract to see the immature balance alone, if I understand correctly what you are trying to do. |

in my "listtransactions", there is a block with only 1 confirmation and it does not shows up in the transactions tab. But it does show in immature number: {
"account" : "",
"address" : "AbFyLXbDfXj3smd9ZyrkJvdcqGjtWine7d",
"category" : "immature",
"amount" : 17.13000000,
"confirmations" : 1,
"generated" : true,
"blockhash" : "c0ec2c1c6c15e9c34ffe3fd9ecb16fcbe6c980f897114d6b2ca03cb4d4334e9f",
"blockindex" : 0,
"blocktime" : 1373505530,
"txid" : "473966f87e69d569ba9b1911903248255661f46a6b4b3d3ed15cfa9710831dbc",
"time" : 1373505530,
"timereceived" : 1373505532
}
Why is there only 1 confirmation? I tried looking up that transaction and block hash in the block explorer at http://primecoin.21stcenturymoneytalk.org/ , but it doesn't like those numbers. Not sure what went wrong there... |

Just another coin, sounds fancy.. why do we need more? Smart answer, we dont.
LTC will soon head to Gox, LTC will soon hit $25 plus, possibly $50 or more. Primecoin was created to sell off and gather more LTC from "certain people" PrimeCoin is meant to keep you distracted from LTC. The people investing in LTC will make a fortune.
Weren't you buying XPM with LTC earlier today?  |

Doesn't work, needs libgcc DLL. Sorry about that, I will recompile with static. Actually, I'm having that problem as well - how do you compile embedding the DLLs? [/quote] Add '-static' to the end of the LDFLAGS in the makefile. |

This might have already been answered (I thought I saw a reference here or on reddit)
My transaction on DigitialOcean VPS is currently in the category of "orphan". The other transactions (other machines) are all in the category of "immature". Have I lost those coins?
I tried dumping the privkey and importing it back to "home" wallet, but that didn't seem to work.
Newly mined coins will be "immature" until 3200 more blocks are mined (takes a day or two). The orphan, sadly, is lost. |

People are getting upset because some people not sharing their compiled code are damaging their own reputation and the reputation of the coin. Also, it's just flat out unethical to steal blocks. 'Of course they are! This is the internetz where anything goes!' is the typical argument, however I'd like to think the crypto-community and particularly XPM miners are for the most part much better than the worst posters on the /b forums. Right now there are a lot of people proving me wrong. All you have to do is look at the statistics.
Exactly where does your entitlement to the work of others spring from? It's not clear to me why you appear to think you are owed something. Stop typing these inanities and start studying the code and optimize it yourself. If you then feel obligated to the rest of humanity, please feel free to give away your efforts to anyone you choose - but please stop asking others to do what you either cannot or will not. |

anyone have any idea how to get an estimated blocks/day for a given primepersec? also, any information on how this changes with total network "primepersec"? Like how is difficulty worked into this system?
'Primespersec' is apparently not much of a metric at all. It varies wildly on the same machine, and does not seem to be in any way predictive of mining success. The difficulty, if I understand it correctly, is the minimum length of the Cunningham chain you have to find to mine a block. |

If people spent half the time trying to improve stuff as they do begging others to just give them the fruits of their work, they would be a lot wealthier - and wiser.

I've just been told that someone is mining this with gpu cgminer at 550mh/s he's found 20 blocks lucky fucker.
I've mined 24 blocks with one CPU and the stock miner, and I know some have done better than I have. [Edit: BTW - what would '550 megahash' mean in the context of this algorithm? There is no 'hashing' here.] |

Is there a way to set my client to use a custom port? I think I'm getting blocked by my local firewall here...
You an put a line with 'rpcport=<portnum>' in the config file. |

Having an advantage is fine, and intellect/cunning should be rewarded. A 10-20% advantage seems reasonable, a 1000-10000% advantage, however, just reflects badly on the intentions of the actual coin ...
...
Can you justify this claim? I have been mining very acceptably with a single cpu and the stock client. I have seen NO indication of anyone having that kind of an advantage. That being said, I think, quite frankly, that if you could pull that off, you would deserve the rewards. I don't understand all this whining. The technically inept are not likely to be successful in such an arena as this. |

Good to see coins evolving like this, this coin seems to add some new features to the cryptocoin world, which is a good thing. Hope to see more of this.
It does seem kinda lame some miners have an order of magnitude advantage (if not orders)to regular miners. DAY 1 , Apparently almost right from the get go.
would recommend devs updating client download with the few obvious optimizations mentioned in this thread as well as the other obvious ones, or Lukejr posting a optimized update, if he would be so nice.
the sooner this happens the better as the "unfair" advantage could stick around to at least damage the coins rep in the future, if minimally. (Overall good launch)
If someone has the skill and makes the effort to optimize their miner, how is that unfair? Seriously, I doubt what you say is true at all. I have been mining with the stock client on a i7-3820 that's not overclocke, and I have mined 22 blocks so far - the last was less than an hour ago. I have gone stretches of 10 hours with no block sometimes, and got 2 in 30 minutes another time. It's just luck, really. |
