[PASC] PascalCoin: Induplicatable NFT

[ocminer]

someone trolling or is it really you @ocminer testing stuff out?

nope, not me, just someone trolling, i'm focused into other projects currently.

I tried to install Pascal on a new computer and I just get alone in the world with no nodes for hours.  I never connect to the blockchain.  This has never happened to me before, what the hell is going on?

[Vorksholk]

It would be nice to have somewhere in the code where you could at least block based on names, block ocminer* and then they would have to change it, and then
it would be another block....

What would that accomplish?
Besides. We can be jealous, but not mad at whoever is dominating the hash rate. We're all in it to make $$. So unless some1 is a dirty communist, let others profit. Their investment is MUCH larger than most.

So is their potential loss if things don't work out.

Yeah, this is the part that a lot of people don't realize. There surely are people who make fantastic profits in crypto, but they also take on significant risk, and devote significant time/talent. And in the end, large farms increase the hashrate, help the security of networks, and cause the token to become more scarce, making the token more valuable and validating the network's goals by putting time, effort, and capital behind investing in it.

At the same time, it's always unnerving when one party is known to control the majority of a network's hashrate.

I was referring to the DDOS attacks.

Oh, the nodes themselves aren't identified by the miner name, only the block. You can't tell the difference between the miner him/herself, or just a legitimate node relaying their block. DDoS traffic wouldn't be 'tainted' in any way that anyone could correlate with a miner identity.

Hashrate's going up pretty fast!

I ordered an RX 480, and hopefully next weekend I can get around to making a (fairly unoptimized) public OpenCL miner. Ballpark estimates, AMD cards will probably pull 3-4x the performance per dollar of NVidia cards.

Awesome news! -- Thanks for what you are doing.

Of course! Although as usual, no promises (especially since I'm incredibly busy on my own projects, and I'm traveling next Sunday to Money 20/20), but I don't envision the OpenCL implementation being too difficult.

Anyone know how to setup multiple instances and run multiple GPU's on one RIG?

I setup multiple users and figured out how to run the wallet.exe in  each user and switch between them, but how do I specifiy for the pascalcoincuda_smxx.exe to use GPU 0 or 1 or 2, etc/

"pascalcoincuda_smxx.exe 1" does not seem to work for example to use GPU 1.

TY

I think you need a d in there like d1 or d2

Hahaha. 'd' for DUH on my part. Thank you. That forced the GPU selection.

Thanks a bunch. Let's see how it runs.

Sorry to bother,
downloaded latest wallet from OP, got it synced (had to open ports 4004 and 4009)
renamed miner to 10 character long.
closed wallet
tried running wallet in the GPU miner folder. Error: EArgumentOutOfRangeException in module rtl240bpl at 00076A52

any hints?

do i need a config in appdata?
where do i set the 1 thread of mining?

thanks in advance

Looks like the "DDoS" on the network might be submitting blocks to the network that appear to be ~1 minute in the future, causing clients at the correct time to believe they have a block with an invalid time for a while. Not sure if this would prevent them from submitting a block if they found it, but certainly interesting.

[kahir]

so what is the price now ... 2 k?

[Rabinovitch]

Who can share a windows binary of Build 1.0.5? I would like to try CPU mining at my job...

p.s. no need, I found Build 1.0.6.    https://sourceforge.net/projects/pascalcoin/files/PascalCoinWalletB1.0.6.0.exe/download

I will upload it somewhere else if someone need it.

p.p.s. Intel Core i5 4210M is hashing at 1600+ kH/s (4 threads).

sry man
how to use all gpu ?

You still need transaction history to prevent double spending - you need a central consensus point which is achieved by widespread block consensus

[PascalCoin]

No. Please read WhitePaper (at Opening thread)

PascalCoin CORE does not need transaction history.

Transaction history is usefull, ONLY, for humans or for Third party software... or for RPC calls... not for core, nor for control double spend

[Vorksholk]

It's a form of pruning. Sort of like how old Bitcoin transactions that are spent can be safely deleted after a period of time, so too can old blocks be pruned due to the safebox design of Pascal. Since Pascal uses a pure proof of work approach to consensus, you could keep just the headers to validate any blockchain without storing the historical transaction data after a certain safety window.

I am still having an issue I am having on a rig with multiple CUDA GPu's minign pascalcoin?

One one instance logged in as the user it works fine. When I switch user to another one, launch a different instance of the pascalcoinwallet then the pascalminercuda software, after a few minutes the mining instance stops on the other profile . So only one profile is active seems like when I check the GPu usage .

Same vice versa when I switch back to the first profile.

Seems like the Profile that is in the background (not logged out) stops mining after a few minutes.

Each profile is set to use a specific GPU separate form one another.

Can't figure this one out.

the system is a windows 10 pro pc with 2x GTX 1060 gpu's.

Thank you.

now can only see pascal coin, and can not mine in my wallet, because the hash is very high. quite simply wait for the market that lists pascalcoin

Finally,  someone with the same error I've been getting.  If you figure it out, please let me know.

Try again using the below steps:
1. Install original wallet 1.0.6
2. Extract Vork's miner somewhere and rename the wallet file to WalletPatched.exe (or whatever name different than original wallet exe)
3. Copy all files from miner folder to original installation folder
4. Start WalletPatched.exe and let it sync
5. Start miner

@thedreamer:
Try to launch each instance of miner from different folders for each session/user.
