Talk is cheap; words, words. You can bully me, that's fine, but numbers never lie. So, you can bash me all you want, but people's voices are heard through hash power and numbers. Right now, 60 EH is speaking volumes.
Why go Off Topic victimizing yourself as if you were a kinder garden kid?  I thought you were just about to unveil Satoshi Nakamoto.  What does Trump and Biden have to do with unveiling his identity?

I tested bsgsd sever and it also is pretty fast

Nice, not much people test it because not much knows that the server exists  Roll Eyes

I know printing to screen will cause lost of speed but, is there any way I can check exactly how many keys/s are running  in bsgsd?

To keep the best performance in the server i should recommend not to look for this on the server side.

Instead of it i should recommend to this on client side, in the BSGSD.md file i post a small python client, since performance is not required on client python fit perfectly for this situation, you can send small chunks of work to the server something like 50 to 55 bits of subrange and edit the client output to print the speed:

Code:
# Loop for sending and receiving messages
for i in range(num_iterations):
    reply, elapsed_time = send_and_receive_line(host, port, message)
    if reply is not None:
        # speed = subrange / elapsed_time
        print(f'Received reply: {reply}')
        print(f'Elapsed time: {elapsed_time} seconds')
        # print(f'Speed: {speed} keys / seconds')

In that code you need to set the sub-range value, this require to know what are you doing but you can get more or less the speed that you are getting in each time.
I hope this workaround fit your needs because to be honest i don't see any necessary to print the speed on the server side, it was made to attend clients without the need to be in front the same terminal.

Will be any speed improvement in the future for bsgsd or bsgs key generator?

For CPU i doubt it, I already did a lot of improvements compared against the BSGS of JLP i think that i realdy reach the CPU speed limit.
The only possible improvement will be implement another faster storage for the Baby table and bloom filters or the use of GPU (It need to rewrite all the code)

albert0bsd, thanks for all your work!!!

Thanks, you're more than welcome.

Regards!

My nano3 just showed up today and I've also added it.
In shuffling around the worker names, it got picked up as a Bitaxe Supra by mistake. (shaotai_1)

Why? What's the benefit of increasing the transaction size by a fixed 4 byte and wasting the block space for something that can be done already using the current method?
to segregate two different functionalities.

Think about that number a little bit. 9500 YEARS. Bitcoin is probably an ancient history after 100 years just like fire that cavemen built thousands of years ago. In 9500 years people may not even remember something called Bitcoin ever existed.
if that's the case then why are you here? shouldn't you be spending your time on something that is going to last?

There are a lot of things in the protocol that won't work way before 2106 like SHA256 and ECDSA using secp256k1 curve. For example this last part according to SEC 1 v2 the 256 bit curve is only secure until 2040 (B.2.1 page 73, table 3).

I see you have a crystal ball now and are able to somehow see into the future. Interesting...


Also note, that even if we run out of those, and if all locktime values could be used (so nLockTime will become de-facto transaction nonce), then still, adding new opcodes is possible. Also: reusing existing ones is another option. Which means, that after block 500,000,000, and after year 2106, when every locktime value will be valid, we can implement completely different locktime rules from scratch, without any limits.

I should be able to use nlocktime to specify any block height i want to even if it's more than 500 million. that's my stance. i don't see the point in specifying a particular date and time since bitcoin knows nothing about precise times. and blocks are not at exact time intervals so there really is no reason to be using a date and time for a locking mechanism. the software could take your datetime and convert that to an estimated block height internally...

Bitcoin keeps having a better Market Cap because it was the original crypto coin, but in the future, that will change.
There will be more and more technological innovations that surpass Bitcoin, not about how fanatical a person is about Bitcoin so as not to see how Altcoin technology is getting better and better.

Bitcoin is also under development and several Layer 2 Bitcoin networks have also emerged such as BRC20, Ordinal and most recently the Rune Protocol.
Indeed, sometimes there is a spike in transactions that makes transaction fees very expensive and unreasonable, but it will not always last it will always go down in the end. As in the ERC20 network, it is also sometimes very expensive in some moments.

Bitcoin remains the parent of all altcoins that appear with the largest market capitalization, so the state of Bitcoin will affect all altcoins.
I'm a Bitcoin holder as well as an altcoin, so I like both to date.

Why would I bother with the risk other Cryptocurrencies imply?  LUNA destroyed lives.  Tether is a time ticking bomb.  XRP, the old Ripple, has had multiple waves of ultra high uncertainty that resulted in many losses.  Doge Coin is a lever of Elon Musk that he pulls up or down when ever he wants.  Bitcoin has always been stable instead.  It always proved to be the most trust worthy of them all.  This is why I would choose Bitcoin and not another Cryptocurrency.  Bitcoin is still the first for a very good reason.

I do agree Ross should not be imprisoned or have such a harsh sentence.  But implicating Politics in this debate is not a good look in my eyes.

It is not the first time Trump is using these ways to make many people steer the wheel toward his vote.  Only if he did do something about Bitcoin or Cryptocurrencies generally while he was President.  Only if he cared about Ross back when he was the President.  But he did not.  What makes you believe he would this time around?

Possible confiscation of funds?
Governments can request companies to use smart contracts and confiscate your altcoin cryptocurrency but they can not do it with Bitcoin.

With Bitcoin, no company is responsible for it and there is no smart contract to freeze bitcoins in any non custodial wallets. It's different if you store your bitcoin in custodial wallets like on centralized exchanges.

Reminder: do not keep your money in online accounts
PSA: Most Stablecoins Can Be Frozen, Even in Your Own Wallets
Stable coins and black lists

Dread Pirate Roberts arrested since 2013, while Trump had become president of the US from 2017-2021, if he want to release DPR, why he didn't do it when he was become US's president? Wink

It's completely clear he don't give a shit to DPR, all he wants is to get sympathy from Bitcoin enthusiast and encourage them to vote him.
No, he obviously doesn't.
It is to gain the popular vote. Before it was another group you can insert your own narrative there.
Now they are the bitcoiners and the ones who are tired of Biden and the way things have been run under his presidency.


He is said to be attending a bitcoin conference in July along with others in politicians so to garner these voters who want a change and see bitcoin as the catalyst of this new revolution to overthrow the old:

What is your most important pro Bitcoin argument?
We know many Altcoins want to be better compared to Bitcoin but have failed so far
Please share here and also add a short comment why it is your most important Bitcoin argument.
(...)
Mine is always unforgettable because this experience of mine happened when I was just starting. Everything I had before was Bitcoin only but because of curiosity I was lured to altcoins, so some of my Bitcoins before were converted to random altcoins and I lost a lot of Bitcoin because those altcoins just dump and became dead but Bitcoin is always there.
That's why I already learned the lesson.
