Boah it rescans all time the blocks.
Something was wrong when you made the copy CjMapope.

2TB this stupid client wear my SSD now..dev please really fix this odd behavior of this client this is killing drives in short time.

sorry haha, theres another reason to not download shit from others i guess :/ :/  (only official sources)

Apparently not worth it for any AMD type of GPUs with the current miner.

Basically a CPU is faster than most of the AMD GPUs.

RX 470 gets like 200-250KH/s which is same as an i5 CPU.

While an old GTX 960 gets 500KH/s

Could you please so kind to do it once again this way:

Do the snapshot as follows:
Close the client
copy blocks and chaindata, database and peers.dat that would be a fix.
I had this similar behavior on bitcoin..but not that much of wear level to an drive this is really insane.

So basically, GPU mining is pointless.

No idea if this will reduce botnets since there are many i3 and i5 cpus out there which perform reasonable pretty fast compared to GPUs.

Not on NVIDIA..
Here it performs very good.

Can you post your AMD miner build ?

Pointless to release GPU algorithm when the miner isnt optimized at all. Will only lead to instamining by those who do have access to an optimized miner, just like Zcash.

HAve also to create new wallet the old one got destroyed by the client.. which crappy codebase the dev took to make this built? Seriously these are old bitcoin-core issues.

Thanks for the upload but the wallet seems to have serious issue with this:
After this debug entry this wallet dies..crap crap crap..dev failed!

Then it starts rescanning over and over in a loop.. again dev you failed.
Let me sum it up: FAILED shit sorry but I can't find nicer words for this crap seriously.

Total written and totaled 3.5TB by zcoin-qt wallet..thanks for wear level my drive ...that sucks

[franc0]

no block source available my wallet says. MAc computer.

Help me please, i won't deposit my XZC to my mac wallet until i know what is that "no block source available" thing.

[ioglnx]

Don't waste your time with this..it obviously not out of alpha phase.
I give up on XZC ..before I completely destroy my drive.

[FandangledGizmo]

What is the inflation model of ZCoin?

There are currently circa 1 million coins. How many will there be in 12 months?

Thanks

your i5 gets 200 kh/s? in the terminal on mine it reads 10-11 H/s

Should be much more if you are bench-marking the new cpuminer for the 20500 fork

If you are talking the old miner, then those numbers sound about right

[windchamp]

I downloaded the latest wallet release and needed to re-sync the wallet.  Seems to be stuck at 670 block height, anyone else experiencing this, and how did you resolve it?

I have deleted the appadata\Roaming\Zcoin folder multiple times to try and get beyond block 670
