[ANN][VRM] Verium PoWT | CPU mining | scrypt² | Scaling | New Roadmap Released

[Walrusbonzo]

When looking at "round" on the pool website, the % invalid shares is incorrect.

It's currently displaying "invalid shares / valid shares".

It should be "invalid shares / (valid shares  + invalid shares)".

I noticed this because earlier some people had more than 100% invalid shares.

How do you guys mine?
I have 8core AMD, 8GB RAM, Windows 7 x64 and this script:

Code:

cpuminer-btver1 -a scrypt:1048576 -o stratum+tcp://poolinat0r.com:4444 -u xxx.xxx -p xxxx

In cpuminer-opt-3.4.7-windows iget this error:

Code:

You're running out of memory and will have to reduce the thread count. Add -t 4 to your command line to start at 4 threads and increase the number until it's as high as you can get it without inducing that error.

I tried that.
It only starts with 2 cores and ridiculous low hashrate (about 10h/s total).
Meanwhile mining solo with the wallet and 8 cores gives 850h/s.

The wallet shows your hashrate in h/m.
850 h/m = 14.17 h/s

I see... But anyway i have at least 4GB free memory, only 2 cores working with the miner?

[Wh1teKn1ght]

anyone know how often payouts occur on vrm.cpuminers.com? I haven't had a payout yet even though I've been mining there for 2 days 1000+h/s. There doesn't seem to be any account login on the website...

10 VRM autopayout.

Thanks! Is there anyway to see how many VRM are currently in my account? I can seem to find those details on the site.

Lookup your address in the Latest Paid Blocks section: http://vrm.cpuminers.com/pool/VRM/

Thanks for that! Got my first payout from the pool today.

Nik4691, increase your virtual memory some more. Helped me getting more cores running. On my 4790k rig with 16gb of ram I had to increase VM to 32gb to use all 8 cores. I'm mining Ethereum too and at least 16gb VM is recommended for that.

I could only use 6 of my 8 cores on my FX9370 with 8gb until I set VM to 32gb.

[max2000irc]

Which is the best miner for linux so far ?

Thanks

Thanks Walrusbonzo, that did the trick 
Strange thing is, there is a lot of memory still available.

Running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS I have found this miner to be great
Also works well on Mac OSX and RaspberryPi3 (Raspbian Jessie)

https://github.com/effectsToCause/veriumMiner

Simple steps to run it headless on a Linux server

cd ~/
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install automake autoconf pkg-config libcurl4-openssl-dev libjansson-dev libssl-dev libgmp-dev
git clone https://github.com/effectsToCause/veriumMiner
cd veriumMiner
./autogen.sh
./configure CFLAGS="-march=native" --with-crypto --with-curl
make
./cpuminer -o stratum+tcp://poolinat0r.com:4443 -u USERNAME.WORKER -p PASSWORD -t NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS_TO_USE -B

*NB - You should first make an account at http://vrm.poolinat0r.com/ and also create a worker


The last line you should substitute USERNAME / WORKER / PASSWORD and NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS_TO_USE
The -B flag sets the miner to run in the background, so you can quit your session and it will still be running

To kill it if needed
sudo killall -9 cpuminer

To compile on MAC OSX simply run the following directly after running the ./autogen.sh command:
./nomacro.pl

Even have the above running on a RaspberryPi 3

Need to change the configure line to the following for Raspbian Jessie on RPi3
./configure CFLAGS="-mcpu=cortex-a53 -mfpu=neon-vfpv4" --with-crypto --with-curl  

Also, for RaspberryPi 3 max number of processors you can use without error is 2

HTH

CarepeExonumia you can upload pure static 64 binary, without additional XD

I use linux boot cd without the compiler

The price is down all times and VRM coins is sold with huge amount
maybe in october  we can see the price 0.0001BTC. i'm very disappointed

Huge amounts? Where... It's only 5 btc to 90000 sat.

Pool is approaching 50% nethash threshold (Currently about 48.8%).

Thank testbug for that wonderful contribution but without releasing the pool code, you are helping killing the coin faster by centralization of its mining and botnets will come even sooner.

I'm back to solomine even if it's futile now.

Good luck to all VRM miners.

Fantastic project verium i like, chears.

Yes anyone who can solomine with the wallet or this : https://github.com/effectsToCause/veriumMiner please do, at least until there is a second competitive pool to counterbalance with this one, that would be great.  Thanks!  I've also requested testbug not allow any new miners at the pool until there is more pool hash distribution, waiting to hear back about that.

There wil be 2. pool soon, we helped each other and now i am helping the other pool operator
