|ANN| DAS - Decentralized and Secure. Private Send. Masternodes.

Hi guys i'm following this guide to create a Masternode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVIoVnarKm0
But i have one problem at the 4:25. When send my 1000 Das to the "adress 0", the movement is unconfirmed all time. I waited four hours but the result is the same. Why?
The wallet in the VPS is already working but in the guide there is this passage and after i synchronize with the VPS.

Sorry for my bad english, and thanks for any answer!

You are doing it right if you follow the video and sent the 1000 das to toyr account 0 address... It needs confirmations.
Yesterday and last night the network was down and there was no valid block mined, no transaction went through. Now it is getting back to normal, but the block time still about 5-10x longer than normal. You would need to wait much longer than normal for the confirmations, but nothing else needs to be done.

The difficultly of das is 2701. I doubt there is a problem moving transactions around.

My masternode just made 4 DAS so looks like it's slowly coming back to life?

The difficultly of das is 2701. I doubt there is a problem moving transactions around.

The difficulty has been 4000, then down to 40.

It's a huge problem.  Lots of blocks get mined very quickly, then a huge pause.

Hi guys i'm at the end of youtube guide. But when i check the status of the masternode appear this:

{
  "vin": "CTxIn(COutPoint(0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000, 4294967295), coinbase )",
  "service": "[::]:0",
  "status": "Not capable masternode: Hot node, waiting for remote activation."
}

Why?

[Fiisk]

If you did the setup right, and started the masternode from your wallet with 1000 das in it, it should start.

What does it say at your local wallet when you start the masternode?

[crypto_patriot]

ok, i say it differently...

reason why multipools su.k for DAS is...they mine coin only when the diff is low, they nuke coin into extrem diff areas and then stop mining....ecetera u donthave that hashpower to overcome that ''problematic'' block,
only who work on that extreme block are little miners with little hashpower and they eat only dust as reward...
and thats what is now happening with DAS is because of burst mining... 1-3min fast blocks and then network is stuck many hours on one block
and thats really bad for network or transactions ...
and anyone is going to mine this coin on steamoctane or so at diff values that dontpay for fu..ing energy cost..all because off multipools

p.s only reason why was hexpool first in DAS block amounat was that ''monitoring tools'' in multipools not worked and they wasnt able to spot oportunity to nuke DAS and su.k the profit.., now that ''tool'' work and we can see the result...network stuck in extrem diff blocks that are solved only b volunteers that just dontget acceptable revard...

multipools are only creating stucks and problems for DAS networ, not solving it...
but ok...this was m last ''raging'' about multipools ( for today mehehe P ) , have a nice day P

Thanks. YES. That is the problem. I understand. I personally did not realize that miners are jumping out when difficulty is getting higher. Get over the hump and get back to easy blocks! When I mined, it was 24/7, diff or easy. I got out because of all the cloud mining, contracts and big money being spent that squeezed out the little guys and gave little shares.

Another reason why a miner with decent hashpower NEEDS to be part of the dev to ensure a consistent hashrate 24/7/365 to support the DAS network and transactions.

Now that we are both talking about the same thing in different ways, HOW do we solve this? It only became a problem after the yiimp hack and hexpool going DOA.

I am not the dev. I did not create DAS. It is an inexpensive coin where I saw some opportunity and am just an active part of the community and hodler. I have nothing to lose and everything to gain when it comes to DAS. And it's fun seeing a coin where so much needs to be done. (the hacker in me)

I'm not sure if the local wallet have corrected setting. Because in the Masternode tab there isn't anything.

Until yesterday, I did not even know there was DAS mining on granatgas-pool. I saw a new pool address taking the mining block shares and asked if anyone knew who it was. No answer. So I did some research and found out. Now I know what it was kept a secret from the DAS community. Once a coin's info is public, any pool op can add mining for a coin. What can we do?!

Apparently THAT is where DAS' current problem lies. Gobbling up all the easy shares and abandoning the difficult ones with their massive x11 multipool. I have never seen a post or announcement regarding them adding DAS and now it is causing problems. That along with *crickets* from hexpool on the pools being down with undistributed mining rewards. Any solutions? Ideas? Alternate large pools of "small" dedicated miners with decent pooled x11 hashpower?

We can all complain about this or that but if we don't offer a solution or alternative, nothing constructive is done. With or without Truckman's immediate involvement. (God knows he gets enough PMs from me). That has been my point always.

I say DAS miners continue to use reliable mining pools that will be around, are ethical and and keep a consistent backbone of hashpower going to support DAS:
http://mining.topcoins.biz/ (2%)
and
http://sopool.us/ (NEW; to make up for the loss of hexpool) (.25%)

Apparently bilbotel (stratum down? port closed?) and mattpool not really viable solutions.

We all NEED to COMMUNIcate. Isn't that what COMMUNIty is for?

If you followed the video and set up the hot node/controlling wallet and you have nothing in the My Masternodes tab, that mean your masternode.conf is either empty or not not correct... If the all masternodes tab is empty, that means your wallet is not synchronised to the network.

Again the coin died
The purse is not synchronized - 4 hours the source of the blocks is unavailable.
Payments do not pass.
with master payments no payments are received.

it is unclear what is connected with it, with the lack of miners, or with problems in the algorithm, but this is not normal work, the lack of stable work is a very very bad sign.
Today we work - tomorrow we do not work, it is unprofitable to dig - everyone is waiting for half-day payments
I'm very disappointed with this coin

[tygr1269tygr]

Hi

I also hung a transaction from my wallet to the stock exchange.

DEV asked "what needs to be improved in the wallet?"
Nothing needs to be improved, make sure that the wallet simply worked.

You have to permanently delete the entire wallet folder and sync again. And so several times a day.
Therefore, novices have difficulties with setting up MN. That the network simply does not work.

[fastfalcon94]

I earned 8.4 coins yesterday with a single node. I also sent 75 earned coins to an exchange so I could buy some HVN a few days ago. It didn't take very long at all. Maybe I just got lucky though.

I do agree I'd like to see move involvement with Truckman. C_P has he responded to any of your PM's?

[mainconcept]

Well the unconfirmed transaction problem is there since the beginning.

The only workaround i had was to delete the transaction via walletrepair and send the transaction as soon as the wallet started.

[olegoleg117]

Maybe the problem is that old versions of wallets are used in MN?

It IS clear what this has to do with. Again, this all with losing hexpool to the yiimp hack and the block difficulty aversion of granatgas-pool where miners with hashrate blow through easy DAS blocks then jump ship to other coins on difficult DAS blocks (did not happen before with hexpool). This is HOW a dash-forked coin with x11 works. Nothing the dev or community can do except try to lure more hashpower via stable miners willing to throw the hashrate at ALL blocks, regardless of difficulty, for long-term profitability and the benefit of the coin. As I've said for weeks when everyone asked for more exchanges. Need a BALANCE with more masternodes, mining, community involvement and dev involvement. These are growing pains and should be fixed in the long run but the sooner the better for DAS.

Communication is always the key. Truckman? hexpool?

The only thing I can think of is for Truckman, holding on to a significant portion of the premine, is to purchase some hashing power to get us through these difficult times or keep a 24/7 base hashrate avail at ALL times until mining hashrate consistency reaches a balance. OR share premine with a miner/hashrate buyer who can do this. Truckman does need to realize that all the things that need to be done CANNOT be done by one PT "coding dev" and he should not expect others to do his job for free.

DAS NEEDS a multi-skilled dev team for success:
Lead coder with 2 task coders
Miner/Mining Coordinator
Masternode Coordinator
Exchange Coordinator
Marketer/Communications
Trouble Ticket/Support for DAS users with compile, install, maintenance issues

That is a MINIMUM of an EIGHT person dev team with more needed on special projects along with all working on a wiki, support websites, updates and feature development, security, etc. All of this costs $$, BTC and DAS. That is what premine is for...

If he waits too long, there will be no DAS to dev. No mining = no transactions = no masternodes = no network = no exchanges = no DAS use = dead coin.

PLEASE WAKE UP AND GET YOUR COIN TOGETHER TRUCKMAN. The DAS community can only do so much and you chose to take this burden on yourself for some strange masochistic reason (or naivety). :\

Is this just one video card that needs to be run as a DAS minor?
or one farm?  6*1070?

One video card ain't gonna do it. I'd say a GROUP of independent miners running mining rigs or buying x11 hashpower, as needed, short and/or longterm on an exchange like nicehash.

I have an a/c'd server rack (revamping and upgrading all the servers and networking gear) in my "man cave" that I would devote to continuous, dedicated DAS mining as long as someone covered the overhead cost for the necessary rig buildout and the mining rewards paid for electricity, maintenance and time needed. Would also need to setup a private, whitelisted mining pool for invite only miners to serve as a mining backbone for DAS 24/7/365 with terms and conditions agreeable to all for the benefit of DAS.

Now that the recent problem has been identified, I'll take some time away from my masternode and documentation focus (in what "DAS time" I allot) and do some calcs for mining hashrate needed with the variable difficulty of DAS and the pre-existing mining that is going on continuously and intermittently to determine what would be needed and what it would cost. (but I do have a life and am not a dev for DAS but I do love the maths...)

I am going to start documenting "Trouble Blocks". Blocks where the difficulty and lack of consistent mining power have a significant impact on the reliability of the DAS network.

Block: 42534
TTF: 6 hrs 15 mins 55 secs (WOW)

Base difficulty: 3282.53511
Block difficulty: 21099.2934

Found by: D8MFvYWdr8dHxcHzgR9fouh8BAbvc83x5q (VIP Miner of the Day I would say!! I'm sending a 12.80697000 DAS donation myself)
Pool: http://mining.topcoins.biz

Generation: 6.403485 (80% to pool/20% MN reward)

Network hashrate before was 48 GH/s. After 15 GH/s. Over a 68% reduction due to difficulty! (Unacceptable mining difficulty abandonment) It tells you something good about the reliability of the topcoins pool and the miners there who tough it out for DAS. Thank you.

Solutions? Ideas? Please share.

Thanks for your time. But i don't know.. You watched this video? Because i'm scared.. Maybe there aren't all instruction?
In the local wallet there is another step?

Thanks again
