The same situation was with sumokoin after 1-2 month since start. They had to urgently implement some mitigation to diff calculation code.

Masari's original DAA was much worse and after appr. six weeks it HF'd to implement the Sumokoin DAA. That's the one in use now since another six weeks or so. But it is still far from perfect as we see and it will likely be fixed in the next HF.

A couple of hours ago the nicehash idiot attacked again. Difficulty now over 200M and no block since two hours.

With the nicehash botnet for hire, new coins today need very quick and accurate DAAs. This wasn't the case three years ago.

People with large farms are not a problem. They are financially invested and act rationally.

But nicehash is another story. They provide every idiot who is not invested at all with a huge gun so he can go on a rampage and wreak havoc.


I also saw this behaviour on a lot of new coins. Just a few blocks old, some nicehash dudes with some rented gigahashes ruined the coins, because the blockchain of these coins were stuck for days.

Thanks for moving  this coin, dev. I have already poked  few communities to pay attention to it now or in near future!

Working fine.
Is there any way to find out version of the wallet once it is running?

The quickest way to check is running masarid.exe and you should find it saying "Masari 'Airborne Angelfish' (v0.1.3.0-0e6ed8a)" as the version (the hash at the end needs to be this value to make sure you have the updated v0.1.3.0 daemon)

Thaer how do you think to fight Nicehash? they ruin a coin!

Once a coin has a quick DAA, there is no financial incentive anymore for anyone to rent the nicehash botnet. Only a slow DAA allows nicehash to instamine a ton of coins at a difficulty which does not correspond to the hashrate, i.e. much too low, too cheap. It is then the other miners, which mine permanently, which are paying the price for the nicehash looting. The new DAA will hopefully fix that. If anyone still prefers to rent nicehash they will then have to pay the price. They will only get as many coins as they are supposed to get. Once nicehash does not have this unfair advantage due to a too slow DAA anymore, nicehash makes economically no sense anymore. They are always more expensive than having your own miners at home. They will still exist however because they make their money off those people who desperately want to call themselves miners because they own a few cards in a gaming rig, but are not willing even to learn how to run an executable from a batch file with a couple of parameters inside. Since these people also get their electricity paid by their parents, they don't care if they earn much less than they would earn if they mined like miners do. Nicehash is the solution for the peak ignorance tribe.

Of course if anyone wants to really attack a chain, he can still do it with nicehash even if the DAA works perfectly. But this is very rare since there is no financial incentive in doing so. Most people who buy hashrate there want to make money, not lose money for the lulz. And it requires additional skills which fortunately the vast majority of people doesn't have. Yes, there could be an incentive for an attack but only once a coin is popular, on the big exchanges and can be margin traded. Only then it makes sense to short it and then attack it. But by that time is has a huge global hashrate so that even the hashrate available for purchase on nicehash is far too small for a 51% attack.

Just for my information (noob inside...)  what is DAA???

And about Nicehash, this thing choose the best valuable coin to mine no?
So i think we have at least a few time before they coming to us no ?

Difficulty Adjustment Algorithm.

I don't think nicehash is switching to Masari by itself. Masari is probably not yet on their radar. The instamining attacks come from someone who is renting hashpower from nicehash. Probably not to dump the coins immediately since there is not yet enough liquidity in the market. Just someone who wants to accumulate coins but isn't willing to pay the real price for them. To put it another way: The attacker is able to circumvent the law of diminishing returns, due to the inert DAA.

Well, at the current speed of 60 blocks in 11 hours, we will eventually reach the HF block 63500 in one week. The attacker is clearly not someone who wants cheap coins, but someone who wants to wreak havoc. That's the problem with nicehash. It's selling WMDs to monkeys.

Cant wait for new DAA to start working, as for now profit is  so small if you take current  price. Nicehash should  burn in hell!

The current number of blocks remaining before we hit v3 is 659 (~ 22 hours if on normal emission rate) - these flash mine attacks have gotten pretty bad and we're currently past the fork date estimate
