1861  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: What kind of GPU do you need to mine even a small amount of BTC? on: May 20, 2014, 12:59:42 AM
I am working on a research project but I don't think I have the required hashing power to actually mine any BTC to get data off of.

What sort of data are you looking for? If it is just data you need, you can ask any miner here to give you rather precise mining data. I am sure some members here will not mind helping you out for educational purposes.

Or you can buy a bunch of old usb blockerupters real cheap on ebay just to test out mining. 6 of them should get you 2G hash/s. I don't know how much you will mine from them... 0.0001 per day?

The data I am looking for needs to be monitored in real time and I have built a mining program specifically for that purpose. The only thing is that I don't have the computer knowledge to reprogram it for ASICs. I might be able to get by with less than 0.01 BTC a day. I suppose I could go for just 0.01 BTC a week and keep track of the data over a longer period of time.

I am trying to keep as much info about this data collection venture a secret for now because I think the data I gather will revolutionize the BTC/Altcoin community and I intend to profit from it by providing the information on a website and collecting ad revenue. I just don't want anyone to steal my idea when I am so close to getting this information.

Can I get some support and help to get NXT on the ShareXCoin.com exchange? It a new exchange but growing quickly. You can vote once per hour, or pay .001 BTC per vote if you are really into supporting NXT. They are adding 1 coin per day.

https://sharexcoin.com/votings?coin=NXT

thanks.

Saturday, I bought feeshares and interest was 1000 each.

Now, I found this interest dropped to just 500. What happened?

Quote
The correct amount is 500 for each FeeShare not 1,000. Because the interest rate is 5% per month. The 1,000 showed few days ago is just a display bug.

1 feeshare=20.000 sharecoins

5% of 1 feeshare=1000 sharecoins,

not just 500...

30% per year is 2.5% per month.

20,000 * .3 = 6000 / 12 = 500

Or you could Scrypt mine with GPU's in a multi-pool.

yep, it needs a cute furry animal or no one will buy this coin. Wink

I am working on a research project but I don't think I have the required hashing power to actually mine any BTC to get data off of. So I am looking at getting a new desktop with some powerful GPUs to mine BTC but I am unsure how many GPUs or what GPUs I would need to get about 0.01 BTC every 24 hours. I am not concerned with electricity cost or overall profitability, just on getting some data about BTC for a documentary. So what would I need?

Your probably better off getting a dedicated ASIC machine, or at least a small array of Gridseed miners.

I know, I am sucking but his is important.

I got 50% outdated nodes out there.

Please, update to 1.1.3 soon.

This is also f**king important,guys.

I floated an idea about contacting outdated nodes via WHOIS lookup a couple of weeks ago, anyone want to take it on just to see if does get any results?

Does the software not have a rejection routine to only connect to nodes of a certain minimum version the way bittorrent does?

Is it normal for transactions to take multiple days to confirm? Even if it's over 1,000 nxt?

No. On average 1 minute.

Seems like it doesn't show as "confirmed" balance in the wallet for much longer than that. My wallet showed transactions that had over 100 confirms each, but still the wallet showed "confirmed" balance of 0.

>Dirac is intented not simply as a currency, but as a stable financial instrument capable of carrying vast amounts of wealth in a safe, secure, and in a manner more economically efficient than Bitcoin.

Can someone explain this? (putting aside the awkward phrasing and spelling error). Is this due to BLAKE-256 vs SHA-256?

I installed the windows wallet with the installer. It is possible to just install a service and then access the UI with the browser? This way, it can be foraging out of the way, and when I want to use the wallet I can just browser to the localhost address?

My recommendation always is to use http://nxtra.org/

You can still connect via browser http://127.0.0.1:7876/

and also have desktop version.



That .org link gives a 302 redirect to /faucet which returns a 500 error response?

Fixed http://nxtra.org/nxt-wallet/

(1) It can auto update to newest NRS when it's released.
(2) It can minimize to system tray.
(3) you can still use your regular browser by going to http://127.0.0.1:7876/
(4) It's a full node
(5) It behaves like regular Windows app (unlike run.bat that you have to do with just getting NRS version)
(6) One click install to correct directory, shortcut to start menu, etc

The only bug is that if using the desktop interface (instead of using the browser) you have to do Cltr + C and Ctrl + V for copy and paste as right click isn't working. This is minor point.


Thanks. I think that is the wallet I have. I didn't realize it could minimize to the tray. I did know I could just open using the localhost link. Thanks.

thanks for the top 100: http://nautinsight.buddylabsapps.com/top100

Can you add the donation address on the footer?

Isn't a rich list sort of misleading, given a user can have NAUT sitting in multiple addresses? I never understood their purpose in a multi-address wallet system.

I'll look at the NRS. I think you can make pretty much any .exe a service with svrany, as long as it doesn't provide a UI. I would look into modifying the code to do this, run as a service, or at least in the background with a tray icon, but I think everything is written in Java which I am not that familiar with. I'm a .net guy.

.NET should be able to start a subprocess, right? So, the java process could live there.

The unlocking is a more delicate part. Do you wish to type in your passphrase everytime your pc boots?

Dose the current UI save your login? Seems like you are required to put in your password whenever you load the wallet. That said, I pretty much keep my desktop running 25/7. The passpharse could be saved locally, encrypted with DPAPI using a 6 digit PIN, or if the user prefers the password isn't stored at all and the user needs to log in whenever they reboot.

Although, I guess a minimize to Tray would be adequate for most people.

Zip...

I noticed which the orderbook and trade history seem to live update, the Volume/Last/High/Low don't seem to. Also, it would be nice to see the current Bid/Ask at the top along with Last.

thanks..

Hi - sorry I have not been as active over the last few days. I was travelling all last week and did not have a lot of time to post.  But I am back now!

Updates:

-Now that we have a deep liquid market it will be easier to gain merchant acceptance - and I will begin that work today.  

-NSF: as the volume grows we will no doubt have a little more volatility, but we should also gain some buy support form the new coins Bryce Weiner is planning.  My view is that the general public will gravitate to the least volatile coin...that does not mean it can't go up or down...but it will in a less volatile fashion.

That is all for now, I will update as necessary.


-BK


Are your developers looking at the slow confirm times? Over the weekend we were seeing 20-30 mins or more just to get 1 confirm.
1876  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [NXT] Nxt - Official Thread on: May 19, 2014, 05:20:40 PM
Ah, now I see. You want a Windows service installed. Puhh. Not sure if that is done fast.

You can definitely use the NRS as a service but I have no idea how to register a Windows service + submitting the necessary private keys (if many).


Right, sort of like the Plex Media Server. It has a web based UI and the service runs on a localhost port to provide the UI.

I'll look at the NRS. I think you can make pretty much any .exe a service with svrany, as long as it doesn't provide a UI. I would look into modifying the code to do this, run as a service, or at least in the background with a tray icon, but I think everything is written in Java which I am not that familiar with.

Noob question here. First off where do I put this info at?

rpcuser=yourusername
rpcpassword=yourpassword
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=1161
port=11161
daemon=1
server=1
gen=0
addnode=54.186.223.183
addnode=54.187.101.97
addnode=74.208.230.160
addnode=184.155.218.183
addnode=71.227.74.98
addnode=188.194.8.82
addnode=109.201.154.157
addnode=184.155.218.183

Second I am trying to find a pool but so many of them seem to be having issues. Anyone have a good stable North America pool?

Create a file Named Nautiluscoin.conf in %AppData%\Nautiluscoin (or whatever you specified as the data directory when you initially installed) with the information above. Actually, you only need the addnode lines.

I had zero problems with naut.0feepool.com.

I assume the wallet has to be open and unlocked to forage?

when approximately will the multi-gateway be ready?

When it has been tested thoroughly  Grin Sorry, but that is the honest answer. You can trade Nxt directly for Bitcoin, Litecoin or Doge now, if you are technical enough as the software is at alpha stage.

It is known as NXTservices and it had to wait till the release of the Asset Exchange that the multigateway uses before being released for testing. It also has peer to peer encrypted chat to facilitate trading and as a nice add on  Cheesy

See here for more info >>>> https://nxtforum.org/nxtservices-releases/nxtservices-v03-includes-multigateway-deposit-support-for-btc-ltc-doge/


Edit: This refers to jl777's gateway, I don't know about the other gateways being developed.

Thank you Daedelus,

today i have received a stake of MIC (coins) over the asset exchange!
why could this be traded on the asset exchange?


sorry for asking this stupid, but I would like to better understand this system

Because it was created on the AE.
