hmmmm, btc38 eng site is down..... cant connect...

[delarey]

I have built an Ubuntu 16.04 wallet that works fine. Happy to upload somewhere is anyone is interested. Also can;t see why BTC38 cannot get their act together.

About the bounties, are you guys ok with:

- paying krnlx the "block download speedup" bounty?
- paying krnlx the "trie sync fix" bounty?
- additionally, I was thinking: when the windows static qt build is ready, paying palginpav a small sum from the fund to thank him for his work? maybe not-so-small if he provides a nice windows wallet build guide as well?

Of course I'm ok with all three of them.

It`s very good thinks! very good work!
And I want ask about optimized m7 miner (may be more faster spmod`s), after wallet`s works, of course.
Thanx Man`s!

No one has access to the extremely optimized miner. There is no source code for it either, so don't bother asking for it. Just mine with what you have.

Sources of m7 miner in first post. palginpav have some optimized miner, you can see at GitHub. just I think, this optimize is not finish and can get more hashes. but need to work with it. sp_ have optimized miner (sp-mod #3), but for donation. my 1070 can have 17-18mh/s and I think it`s not all.

[_javi_]

after wallet crash , it will crash again if miner is connecting to it.

i have to turn off all the rigs pointing to the wallet, and then restart

On linux, when I am mining with many rigs, I launch cryptonited with -rpcthreads=64 param, because it is limited to 4 rpc threads by default. Maybe it is the same problem ?

As I've mentioned above, qt wallet currnetly is temporary, not-autonomous solution, just for tests. Don't mine using it (if you're not only hobby-miner, of course)

The miner in the first post and on pallas' signature is not as fast as you think it is. sp_'s miner is faster, but not as fast as the one you're thinking about. You're not going to find a miner as fast as what you're looking for.

[palgin]

UPDATE https://github.com/palginpav/Cryptonite/releases/tag/0.1.3.0-krnlx

Static qt wallet, updated bins.

FINALY!  

Please, test and report. I've tested on several hosts, seems working one, but need more confirmations.

Will create a guide tomorrow, I'm tired now, but it was quite a hard nut to crack for me.

Thanks very much!
Let's wait for some reports then I'll bug bitfreak to update the website.

Let's wait for some reports then I'll bug bitfreak to update the website.

Got cryptonited on six rigs now and the qt wallet on my PC. Will report back in about 12 hours before going to the airport tomorrow.

I should mention that I can now stop mining on the qt wallet without it crashing, so that's fixed.

Great work! Absolutely awesome!

[_javi_]

congrats! it works!

It takes some time here to index blocks, but this pc is slow (win7 64, fx8150, 4gb) 

and no errors so far!!

i guess its normal behaviour that wallet wont close until all miners are disconnected.

let´s try my luck soloing!

I think, 30mh/s for 1070 is a fake ATM. because someone, like sp_, long ago would have made a donators miner with 30mh/s. but no one make this extreme optimized miner.

Pallas has a private miner optimized by that produces in gtx 1070 up to 36 mh / s but I remember wrong, I do not think pallas lie about this, I wrote him privately, to buy it and he told me, he did not sell it because it is Your reward for having revived XCN, that when you get the profit it deserves, then it will even make it public, because you think he mine alone, although there are two pools?

Assertion failed during assert(0) execution, it's not related to exactly my qt-build, try syncing from scratch. It's known bitcoin-qt problem, and as far as cryptonite-qt is based on bitcoin-qt, this thing successfully migrated 

P.S: start with -reindex on the command line, once, that should fix your existing DB and prevent this kind of errors in future.

Hmm well indeed he deservi it! Pallas is a good working guy. We must wait till pallas miner is out for te rest of us!

Windows Build Guide

PART I - Build environment

!!WARNING!! Remove all Qt and MSYS/MinGW installations from your host (if you have any, of course) before proceeding !!WARNING!!

1. Download MSYS Shell and run it, when MinGW Installation Manager shows up, go to "All packages -> MSYS" and select following:

Code:

msys-base-bin
msys-autoconf-bin
msys-automake-bin
msys-libtool-bin

Don't uncheck packages that will be marked automatically as you check ones mentioned above. Also, make sure that none packages from MinGW section selected. When completed, click on "Installation -> Apply changes"

Done!

2. Download MinGW32 and extract mingw32 folder to the root of your drive (let's count it's drive C:\). Now we need to add it to PATH variable.

Open command prompt (cmd.exe) with administrative privileges and execute following:

Code:

setx path "%path%;C:\mingw32\bin"

Assuming you have Win version 7+, Win XP users should check how to add for their system

Close your cmd and reopen it, then execute:

Code:

mingw32-make -v

It should state:

Code:

GNU Make 4.1
and any other stuff

If nothing shows up, check your PATH variable.

Keep your cmd window open.

Done with this part.

PART II - Dependencies

Here we have 2 options, I've uploaded precompiled libs and Qt to Mega.nz, or you can build it from scratch to prevent any errors, choose what you want.

PRECOMPILED:

1. Precompiled Libs , Precompiled Qt5

Unpack deps.zip contents to C:\deps folder keeping hierarchy , unpack Qt5.zip to C:\Qt keeping hierarchy.

Done with this section.

BUILD FROM SCRATCH:

!!NOTE!! You can speedup process by running make and mingw32-make with -jx flag, where "x" represents the number of your physical processor cores, so it would be like, for example, "make -j4" !!NOTE!!

1. Create folder named "deps" on your drive.
2. Download OpenSSL and unpack it to your newly created "deps" folder.

Open MSYS shell (C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\msys.bat) and execute following, line-by-line:

Code:

cd /c/deps/openssl-1.0.1l
./Configure no-zlib no-shared no-dso no-krb5 no-camellia no-capieng no-cast no-cms no-dtls1 no-gost no-gmp no-heartbeats no-idea no-jpake no-md2 no-mdc2 no-rc5 no-rdrand no-rfc3779 no-rsax no-sctp no-seed no-sha0 no-static_engine no-whirlpool no-rc2 no-rc4 no-ssl2 no-ssl3 mingw
make

Don't close your MSYS shell.

3. Download Berkley DB 4.8 and unpack it to "deps" folder.

In MSYS shell, line-by-line:

Code:

cd /c/deps/db-4.8.30.NC/build_unix
../dist/configure --enable-mingw --enable-cxx --disable-shared --disable-replication
make

4. Download Boost 1.57 and unpack it to "deps" folder.

In CMD, line-by-line:

Code:

cd C:\deps\boost_1_57_0\
bootstrap.bat mingw
b2 --build-type=minimal --with-chrono --with-filesystem --with-program_options --with-system --with-thread --layout=versioned -sNO_BZIP2=1 -sNO_ZLIB=1 toolset=gcc variant=release link=static threading=multi target-os=windows threadapi=win32 runtime-link=static stage

5. Download MiniuPnP 1.9 and unpack it to "deps" folder.

In CMD, line-by-line:

Code:

cd C:\deps\miniupnpc-1.9
mingw32-make -f Makefile.mingw init upnpc-static

Note that miniupnp is erroring during qt build, so it will be disabled by default, keeping it just for future releases and fixes.

6. Download LibProtobuf and unpack it to "deps" folder.

In MSYS shell, line-by-line:

Code:

cd /c/deps/protobuf-2.6.1
configure --disable-shared
make

png_CFLAGS="-I../libpng-1.6.16" \
png_LIBS="-L../libpng-1.6.16/.libs" \
configure --enable-static --disable-shared --without-tools

make

9. Download QT5Base and QT5Tools, Unpack qtbase-opensource-src-5.3.2 folder (in archive qtbase-opensource-src-5.3.2.7z) contents to C:\Qt\5.3.2 and qttools-opensource-src-5.3.2 folder (in archive qttools-opensource-src-5.3.2.7z) contents to C:\Qt\qttools-opensource-src-5.3.2.

In CMD, line-by-line:

Code:

set INCLUDE=C:\deps\libpng-1.6.16;C:\deps\openssl-1.0.1l\include
set LIB=C:\deps\libpng-1.6.16\.libs;C:\deps\openssl-1.0.1l
