hi dev, can you tell me what's wrong with this coin, i mine one hour without any shit!!!!!

I think your settings may be incorrect, or you don't have enough hashpower to get thru the network, blocks are going really fast.

you should join a pool if you are a smaller miner, or check your settings if you are trying to solo mine with proper rigs.

new wallet seems to be working, I will update the thread again with my findings when PoS start showing up.

right now when I unlocked for PoS the cpu went really high so I just left it locked, if you find the same thing I will try to find out what the situation is with that, or bosian will post us some info.

worker temporarely banned
WTF

if you send too many rejects it drops your worker so that people aren't polluting the network traffic with bad shares.

this is a normal thing to deal with during early coin launch, all sorts of things happen to many coins during launch. its functioning correctly but early networks are prone to forking, and early diff retargeting can have issues aswell.

you might have problems trying to solo if there are pools churning out > 100x your hashrate, especially if early diff is lower and blocks are being hit faster. its all just part of the early growth of a coin, once network hashrate & diff picks up you can expect things to be a bit smoother.

also make sure u set your time correctly, in this case probably not the issue but a good advice.

I think I am solo mining, but I am not sure if I am producing anything or not.
I am kind of lost when it comes to solo mining. I have read several posts on here about it, but I am still lost.
How would I know if I solved a block?


depend how much hashpower u have and how long u mine for.

let me know I check back in a bit, but if you have significant hashpower it shouldn't take long at all.

I can help you get set up if its not working correctly.

Do we? Surely a smaller steady hashrate means there's a higher distribution of overall grains, than if some big hashers came in and started reaping the harvests? That's what would happen if this hit an exchange. I think heavily promoting grain could make it a victim of its own success. Get more people mining it yes, but as soon as it hits an exchange it will be pumped and dumped and seriously devalued once the hashrate drops back down.

I guess it would mean cheap grain for everyone if they wanted to buy it, but that seems to defeat the point. If it takes me a week to mine 100k grain, but then I could just buy it for a mere 0.001 BTC, then what possible incentive do I have to keep mining it? I could buy 10 million for 0.1 BTC. The coin would be as good as dead. Just like all the other highly inflated coins.

The only way to defeat the inflation is through higher distribution, and you're not going to get that by putting this on an exchange in the near future. It seems like a logical fallacy and contradictory to what this coin is trying to achieve. Long term sustainability.

Just look at what happened to ColossusCoin. I admit this coin has a lot more going for it than that copyclone, but the principle is exactly the same. Who wants to mine a coin you can buy for at a satoshi each, when you could mine more profitable coins and just buy them instead?

That's the kind of thing you'd want to do halfway through the total supply of coins, or at least to a point where the supply is becoming more scarce. Once there's no incentive to mine and no possible profit forseeable over the horizon, people will give up and move on just like every other coin. I hope that grain learns from other altcoins and doesn't follow the same path. If this hits the exchange at a Satoshi then there would be absolutely no reason for me to mine it anymore. I could buy 10 million, and sit on it like everyone else would.

The market cap would be flat and near-zero.

the thing is.. and im just bringing this up for the sake of argument, if you were to buy 10mil after it hit exchange, and then sit on it, well that's 10 mil out of circulation being hoarded. that's actually good for the coin.

say it hit an exchange and no one sold any, what u think the price would start to do? im not saying as a community that absolutely no one sells and that's feasible, but if everyone believes in the sustainability of GRA and holds on to theirs for the longer haul, or if many new investors come to GRA with this approach, that this alone could possibly keep the price healthy.

you are right to think it would be easier to buy 10mil grain than mine it if it did indeed hit an exchange and be super cheap, but right now there is no exchange, and I doubt you could find 10mil GRA very cheap. I wouldn't sell any of my GRA right now, and I don't plan to anytime soon.

its up to us to decide that GRA is worth something, its only worth what you will take for it, and what someone will offer you. I highly doubt your GRA will ever be trading @ .01 BTC or w/e, but I do believe that we could get it on exchanges and that it could have value for investors & miners.

Any news on exchanges wanting to add Grain?

well, if we can grow the coin... at some point exchanges will decide to add GRA. there are no guarantees about getting listed, but GRA has a good community growing and if we support the coin and promote GRA where appropriate we can continue growing.

regarding the PoS, I wouldn't worry guys, bosian is looking into it and according to his explanation we may just be caught up on all the PoS steaks.

there will be some update soon, plz stand by

Still selling 100k Grain for 0.2BTC

that might be asking a bit much at this time, gl to u tho.

Weird. I just added a new address to my wallet, and now my last transaction where I solo mined a block has the name of the address I just created in my wallet. Hope it doesn't mess up my solo mining.

Hmm, maybe you could post a screenshot just to understand better what happened.


this is normal behaviour, there is a pool of addys in use by your wallet at any given time, and when you create a new addy it takes one from the pool and creates a new one in the pool, or something to that effect.

this is important to you probably only for personal record keeping or anonymity, I am not sure how to prevent this behaviour, I think you cant.

What happened to the POS blocks?

good quesstion, i havent got a pos block in forever.

hmm I have to read back and catch up on a few pages, but this seems odd. how long since PoS happened? check blockchain?

looking at blockchain I see no PoS, perhaps there is some hiding in the PoW tx, but I think we will have to ask bosian what the deal is. may need some fixin.

I made a Grain faucet: Grain Field

I hope it stirs interest on this coin. Smiley

thanks for helping out Smiley

134  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How much Kh/s R9 280x Gets? on: January 01, 2014, 05:08:46 PM
some cards are better than others, all should do 700 KH/s or better.

I have xfx cards that suck, MSI are ok other than fan rattle.

most ppl liking asus, sapphire

try to look up and see the model #s from litecoin mining hardware wiki to see which ones are popular.
135  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Livechains.net 1% fee pools!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! on: January 01, 2014, 03:19:42 AM
I support this pools!!!!!!!!!

no really not even lying, they work good so far, very snappy response from the pool website when I push buttons.

gj sir!
136  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: r9 270x + stale shares on: January 01, 2014, 12:05:28 AM
also -s sets the check for new blocks time

-s 1

sets to 1 second

-E sets the time to give up on work u doing, or something

-E 45

sets to 45 seconds

depending your coin you should set this value to something near to the block time. eg block time 60s, put this value from 30-60. not sure exactly what is best, try it yourself.
137  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: r9 270x + stale shares on: January 01, 2014, 12:02:12 AM
dude, set your internet time to nist servers. time-a.nist.gov is military, best choice. right click on clock in windows to change it.

this can be the cause of rejects

maybe some network clock issue? I don't know now.

that's very interesting, I was leaning towards the possibility that something was slowing things down. this could be the same effect, how is network clock calculated? from all the miners?
