February 2018 Roadmap Update

http://bismuth.cz/roadmap/

Bismuth Foundation.

Very good. Glad to see RPC is close to being implemented. I know there is no ETA for masternodes, but have ye any idea on the requirements yet?

Thanks for the -50% dip folks. Real classy, bag re-filled :-D

thiiiiiissssssssssssssssssssssssss

Please everyone make sure you take a backup of your wallet key files (privkey.der or privkey_encrypted.der and pubkey.der). You can use the "backup keys" button in the wallet or just copy and paste the files to another location. This backup is very important if your Bismuth files are lost or your computer becomes corrupt, stolen etc. If you are storing your Bismuth in a place where you don't have access to the keys (exchanges, web wallet etc.) please be aware that if those resources become corrupt, get hacked or disappear then you will not be able to recover your coins. Only store coins on 3rd party platforms for as short a time as possible e.g. only to do a trade etc.

How do I go about buying this coin? Is cryptopia ok to buy from?

Cryptopia is pretty solid, but the Wallet ist currently on the Wrong chain, therefore you can Buy Coins there, but you cannot send them to your local wallet.

What happens if you send coins to cryptopia right now? I just did and they aren't showing up Will they show up when the wallet is fixed?

Yes. Other than a hard fork and a mismatch in wallets/protocols (which didn't happen), your coins will almost always be fine and transactions will appear eventually.

Hi. I¡m going to deposit BIS from my BIS web wallet to cryptopia to trade them, but I'm not sure how to proced. Fields requeired: amount (ok), adress (crytopia BIS adress I think), PIN (ok), and "openfield data"... Whats this? Whst do i put at opnefield data? And where I put message requeired at cryptopia? Thanks in advance.

Do you know why the bismuth mining software consumes so many CPU resources?
In a rig of 6 1080ti each gpu mine at 1580 mh / s.
In a rig of 2 1080ti each gpu mine at 1900 mh / s.

Same motherboard, ram, gpus model, same configuration MSI Afterburner. The only thing that changes is that one rig has celeron, and the other one has an i3.

It slows down the PC much that software minador, as if it took a minador hidden of cpu.

"openfield data" is the message you'll find above your cryptopia address, which is required to identify your deposit.

When I use bismuth GPU miner my PC gets soooooo slow (not happening this with other coin miners). I have CPU i7 6700k and 16 gb RAM at 3200 so this is not pc problem. I think bismuth miner is using CPU resources and I don't want to mine using CPU, only GPU, Anyway to solve this?

[Bannedseller]

Do you recommend trading Bis on the Heat exchange?

+1 - it really isn't possible to background GPU mine, even with an intensity of 50% (-i 50)

Have you tried the http://bis-pool.net/ miner? It usually only uses a few % on the CPU, so it might run better in the background. If it still doesn't run OK, you could increase "delay_between_batches" (measured in ms) in the config file

oh wow - much better; I can actually get some work done at the same time and the hash rate is higher - thanks!

I am facing this error in the miner

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "quickbismuth.pyx", line 3, in init quickbismuth
  File "C:\Python27\Lib\argparse.py", line 86, in <module>
    import copy as _copy
  File "C:\Python27\Lib\copy.py", line 52, in <module>
    import weakref
  File "C:\Python27\Lib\weakref.py", line 14, in <module>
    from _weakref import (
ImportError: cannot import name _remove_dead_weakref


Is there a solution for this? Thanks

Glad to hear it Because it's quite light on the CPU, I believe it works well on rigs lots of GPUs too.

What you guys think about a new logo? the actual logo doest seems to fit well in low res, and small icons.

Much better!!!! Thank you very much!!! And is there anyway to see how much coins obtained at this pool? At my miner details of pool site I can see only hashrate and number of miners...

You can see it in the "Pending payouts" on the main miners page at the moment, which is number of shares * reward per share (which can go up or down as the round progresses).  It will be added to each individual miner page later too. There is a 6 hour round/payout time & a minimum payout of 1 Bismuth - shares will roll over into the next round if less than 1 Bismuth is earned in a round.

Ok. Thank you very much, my friend. I think this is very better pool and miner tan egg (excesive use of CPU). I'll cointinue using this one bis-pool, of course. Only negative thing is elevate fee of 10% and maybe more information at website of the pool about fees, payments and so on... Anyway good work!

The latest roadmap mentions graphics are something people are offering suggestions on but I'm thinking they are busy coding.
