[bernard75]

You all know that any altcoin is subject of manipulation.
But maybe thats exactly why you are into them.

another 3 yac here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=211053.0

I post there since June 19,but nothing happens

[PSL]

Is there a way to "copy" coins from one YAC wallet to other wallet? I would like to do it.

There is "how-to" for primecoind that uses listtransactions, dumpprivkey and importkey:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=251850.msg2692552#msg2692552

I would like to do something like that with YAC but there is no address in "listtransactions" output. Generated blocks have no address...

Code:

$ yacoind listtransactions
[
{
"account" : "",
"category" : "generate",
"amount" : 29.88000000,
"confirmations" : 89420,
"generated" : true,
"blockhash" : "000000010db6af2e786d637e8aea2edbe72e575fa13614a86ae3f5878301d1eb",
"blockindex" : 0,
"blocktime" : 1368123343,
"txid" : "6ddce3d274526312d84464767a3518b0fa1f5e3ae3bf81e80d5483402a6b7deb",
"time" : 1368123343,
"timereceived" : 1368123346
},
{
"account" : "",
"category" : "generate",
"amount" : 30.08000000,
"confirmations" : 774,
"generated" : true,
"blockhash" : "a3d3f6cc31c7dee025560f4faabb8a1cf1c5476f83944cfd692cfbdee3f95535",
"blockindex" : 1,
"blocktime" : 1373307675,
"txid" : "e8c8851d3a650d846dabf614471a8e2e235ecd5599526e5efa7126b07c7cedb9",
"time" : 1373307675,
"timereceived" : 1373307675
}
]

BTW, when you see this output, how many coins do you expect that will be reported by "getbalance"?

Code:

$ yacoind getbalance
30.08000000

29.88000000 + 30.08000000 != 30.08000000
Is this a bug??

Code:

$ yacoind getinfo
{
"version" : "v0.4.0.0-g32a928e-beta",
"protocolversion" : 60005,
"walletversion" : 60000,

}

Whoever decided to buy 40K YAC, I salute thee.

Was that the buy wall at .000230?

Just for getting info, which exchange you guys talking about, may i ask? Cryptsy, i suppose?

Probably bter...it's the largest YAC exchange at the time.

[loucy]

I would like to do something like that with YAC but there is no address in "listtransactions" output. Generated blocks have no address...

Use yacoind gettransaction <txid> to show the details of that transaction, including the receiving address.

Code:

$ yacoind gettransaction e8c8851d3a650d846dabf614471a8e2e235ecd5599526e5efa7126b07c7cedb9

I noticed that YAC client, yacoind is very slow for several days. It was fast in the past, when I entered command, like getinfo, I received result immediately. Slowdown started several days ago and it is seriously slow now, about 8 seconds but it can be more than a minute":

Code:

$ time ./yacoind getmininginfo
{
    "blocks" : 128313,
    "currentblocksize" : 6267,
    "currentblocktx" : 19,
    "difficulty" : 0.54277787,
    "errors" : "",
    "generate" : true,
    "genproclimit" : 2,
    "hashespersec" : 0,
    "networkhashps" : 15229222,
    "pooledtx" : 19,
    "testnet" : false,
    "Nfactor" : 11,
    "N" : 4096,
    "powreward" : 27.68000000

Do you observe similar slowdown?

My explanation is that:
- I have too many small transactions in my wallet (pool mining)
- increase of N has serious impact to client performance
- something else

My PC has a SSD disk, 8GB RAM, CPU is older Intel x4 (Q9400)... System is busy but it was busy in the past too and other coins on this system respond fast, only YAC has some problem...

Do you see similar slowdown??

UPDATE: I installed fresh YAC client on new PC and let it download blockchain. Wallet was fresh new, empty. yacoind responses were fast. After this test I replaced empty wallet with my 'production" wallet and yacoind is slow again. My wallet is troublemaker!! Is this good news??
Could I do something about it?

My wallet size is about 4.5MB a and this is a statistic of transactions:

Code:

$ ./yacoind listtransactions '' 999999 | grep category | sort | uniq -c
    844         "category" : "generate",
     22         "category" : "receive",

I've got nothing for you... I've got an i5-2410, which actually benches slower than your Q9400, my wallet is 7.4MB, I've got a 5400 RPM laptop drive in mine - but I'm using the -qt version, and I have no sluggishness  even with all 4 cores mining.  There may be a difference in the buses of the machine, but getmininginfo comes back with no observable delay (within the second).  Maybe recompile yacoind from Windmaster's latest source?

One thought - if that machine doesn't have much RAM and is mining yacoin while you've got other things open, maybe it's swapping to disk?  In Windows I would tell you to look for hard faults/sec in performance monitor, but I don't know if TOP has any of the information or what tool to check under linux.

WHat's the price for YAC now?

WHat's the price for YAC now?

On which exchange?

I read op and I would like to know if wallet solo mining would also work with a mac wallet.

When I enter command line by op: yacoin-qt -gen -genproclimit=1

I get the following error: Method not found (code -32601)

same thing if i only enter command: -gen -genproclimit=1


If I enter the command: setgenerate true -1
generate turns from false to true BUT hashpersec stays at 0


help please!

Unfortunately the error message is the same

Are there ways to earn this coin without mining, maybe by writing?

[SirMintALot]

No, you can only earn worthless Devcoins that way

Nope. I know of at least 2 other (so 3 so far) coins you can earn that way.

What type of writing are you looking to do?  It's possible in that, I and/or others may pay you YAC's if it's beneficial to YACoin.

I'm willing to do that. I have a blog, I could share links. I could make a video for the coin on YouTube, I could do whatever.

OK, I will start a bounty thread to see what everyone thinks.
