BiblePay | 10% to Orphan-Charity | RANDOMX MINING | Sanctuaries (Masternodes)

[sunk818]

last Smart Contract Reward was 184520, next will be be 184725 . We are at 184,692. About 33 more blocks to go. For anyone wondering why you haven't gotten your reward yet, it is due to the mining algorithm cutover and the delay in finding blocks in the last 24 hours. This is normal, and is starting to settle down.

Rob, do you have any conversion ratios between PoBH and this dual mining XMR difficult? Would you say XMR is 100x-200x more difficult than PoBH? How do we interpret the new difficulty levels? How do you see this impacting payout for sanctuaries and miners? Should be higher amounts on the BBP side?

[Borgholio]

Question - what IP address / URL does the miner attempt to connect to when it reports a share?  I can try pinging it to see if it's blocked.

You can telnet to it, which is slightly better because Ping can be blocked.

telnet rx.biblepay.org 3001

You should get a blank screen.

I got a blank screen initially, then I got this after a few seconds:

{"id":null,"method":"mining.notify","params":["14c",null,"1000005003dbc560105aec1b1ec3f7572205fbd72c17510fdada48fd853ce238cc14830ee3ed544 7a24bdc3e16ee160180480c7e1302bbece9d4916ccdbfa46c6a1bd076e5da7b5ee4a6011c000000 00","0e8314cc38e23c85fd48dada0f51172cd7fb052257f7c31e1bec5a1060c5db03",null,"00000000","1c01a6e4","5e7bdae5",false,"5e7bd65c"]}                                                                                 

Yeah, you can connect.  If you can try the other two things that might help.  Ill try to think of other things we can do.

How about right clicking on the bbp-xmrig.exe miner, and ensuring it is "unblocked" and Run as Administrator is checked?
Could possibly be network stack blocked at app level.

Then restart the mining batch file.

And I only have one other suggestion before we do things like wireshark.

Try adding "--keepalive" to the end of the params.

Unfortunately I tried --verbose logging, and it will not actually give us enough info to help diagnose a packet submission.  (I also tried verbose logging to file).

--keepalive doesn't work either.  Is it possible to solo mine with the miner?

Not from xmrig, no, you can only solo mine from the core client.

Well I'm out of ideas.  Tried downgrading to 5.6.2 and no luck.  Even tried using my phone as a mobile hotspot to see if an entirely different internet connection would work, but it didn't.  The strange thing is, I actually DID see my BBP address on the pool page for about half an hour this afternoon after I got back from running some errands, but it vanished since then and hasn't come back.

What happened with the right clicking of the exe and setting run as administrator checkbox and unblock?

Unfortunately nothing.  The only thing that running as admin did is allow me to enable huge pages.

rx.biblepay.org first bbp block solved i belive!
Height 184688
Looking good.  

Yes, I'm looking at the pool and everything looks normal now.

In hindsight, I wish we would have hardcoded a "50" starting diff for the cutover height, but, that idea wasnt really entertained.  NOTE TO US: Remember that next time.

So the solo miners solved the first 5, then we had a pool block, then the solo miners solved another one, now we have two more pool blocks.

NOTE that I believe the pool has overtaken the solo miners; we will see over the next 100 blocks very clearly as we go; I believe as more RX hashpower comes in from Monero, there will be no way to solo mine a block (when our core diff rises above 20 or so again).

I mined for 9 hours (500kH) stop at 5 am(gmt +1) because of 0 coins in wallet until now. What is wrong? My adress was created in 2018

Hello all,

I discovered yesterday that the mandatory upgrade was taking place and upgraded my wallet and also my masternode. Everything went smoothly.

Just a couple of quick questions:
1. What is gonna happen to PODC now? Is it (going to be) deprecated, or continuing as before? Is there some kind of prognosis about the profitability PODC vs. BBB/XMR RandomX?

2. My wallet now shows the following versionreport:

Code:

{
  "Version": "Popularity,Percent %",
  "1487": "188; 91.70%",
  "1507": "17; 8.29%"
}

What does that mean for the masternode payments, if currently not even 10% of masternodes are on the right chain?

3. I tried the NOMP pool for RandomX and it works just fine for me (except that my Win10 machine has its RAM too crowded to provide huge pages *lol*). The pool pays matured blocks right away, that means it doesn't collect any balances up to a payout level, right? Is the payout method the same for BBP and XMR?  (not that I'm expecting much of a payout anyway with my 2 CPUs )

Thanks in advance and keep up the good work!

God bless you all in these troublesome times.

I have the same question what you mentioned.


In addition, use https://biblepay.org/biblepayd-evo-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.tar.gz
to get the 1507 version, but the biblepayd is crashed / forced to stop after a few seconds ... even delete all data to a new wallet.
I don't know what happened..

Edited:
Use Build BiblePay method is solved the problem and running normal.
It seems something went wrong with the compiled version?
Thanks

Hi Dave,

1. What is gonna happen to PODC now? Is it (going to be) deprecated, or continuing as before? Is there some kind of prognosis about the profitability PODC vs. BBB/XMR RandomX?

-> We don't have plans to retire PODC at all, impho I really like it too.    It makes half of our mining "green" and the other half "heat" roughly.  We have a breakdown of 30% for GSC, 20% governance, 25% sanc and 25% heat.  If RX is a success I could see us lowering POOM (which is 40% of the GSC budget) and moving that to RX, and having RX pay for the POOM expenses.  Then later, if its ever more of a success we regroup and consider moving some of the percentages from PODC to RX - but only if we see our price rising due to the success of RX, etc.  We have to go with what makes us successful.  But for now, we have plenty of room for improvements in other areas.

2. My wallet now shows the following versionreport:

Code:

{
  "Version": "Popularity,Percent %",
  "1487": "188; 91.70%",
  "1507": "17; 8.29%"
}

What does that mean for the masternode payments, if currently not even 10% of masternodes are on the right chain?

->  The versionreport actually reports the last 205 blocks, and since we have had a slow chain for 24 hours, its not up to date yet.  Please run it in 12 more hours.
But I can say this, we must have had a successful upgrade because after the cutover height everyone before 1507 is kicked off. 

3. I tried the NOMP pool for RandomX and it works just fine for me (except that my Win10 machine has its RAM too crowded to provide huge pages *lol*). The pool pays matured blocks right away, that means it doesn't collect any balances up to a payout level, right? Is the payout method the same for BBP and XMR?  (not that I'm expecting much of a payout anyway with my 2 CPUs )

-> The payment you got was probably from the legacy pool; rx.biblepay.org still pays out after the block has matured, so we have another 105 blocks to go then you should see a payment from that pool.  I did change the address to a new wallet so it should show a distinct trail (as we started from scratch with RX).

God bless you too.


Let me know if I forgot to answer something.

I don't have a comparison ratio handy for XMR vs PODC yet.  I think we can do that, once we get a little more XMR info.  Maybe we should wait a week then make one.  Maybe Sun would like to pick that up as it sounds like it would be very useful if he had some type of updating page, like a payout calculator for one vs the other etc.

I am updating a reward.csv daily and making charts from it. I'm not familiar with XMR so much. My Q2 is extremely full, so I may observe and thinking about it before I actually attempt an ROI calculator. But perhaps a break-even line chart (between sanctuary, podc, heat miner) may work too. Like I previously asked about PoDC RAC to BBP ratio, it is not easy to pull because all the gsc payments are combined for each user. Perhaps if each campaign is paid separately and having unique decimals (like 1527 is for DWS angel number) then I imagine it'd be easier to pull. Anyway, not a big deal, I'm sure I can pull out PoDC RAC to BBP ratio by taking the median value somehow.

Thank you Rob for your detailed answers. I'm excited to see what the next couple of days hold in store for us. Right now the pool seems to find blocks quite nicely.

These are all nice reports.

Well, maybe I can help over the next week or so.  The 'exec price' command displays Dash and BBP so far.  Ill make an item on my list to add XMR to this command.
Once we have that, we can make another command that gives PODC RAC ratio (RAC->Reward), and then we need yet another call to find out how much each HPS pays from each side of the pool (BBP PPH and XMR PPH).  Then I guess we can consolidate it into something useful.

Yeah, this RX is kind of funny in that we have double the pool miners already and our diff has gone from 5000 to .26.

Its amazing how low the diff is for 2.3 mh/s.

Learning from the past, apparently harder is better.

[Borgholio]

Haven't received podc rewards since updating the wallet.  Are they simply delayed?  Thanks!

They were delayed approx 20 hours due to the slow chain, but, paid 11 blocks ago.

re: exec price - i've been getting data daily from coingecko, so I could probably pull in other altcoins easily.

the podc rac to bbp ratio will definitely help immensely.

pool hash rate to bbp and xmr earnings would be amazing!

Hello. How to choose a miner in HiveOS for mining BBP on the RandomX algorithm

Hello. How to choose a miner in HiveOS for mining BBP on the RandomX algorithm

I believe first we would need Hive to add us to the custom OS binary links:

https://hiveos.farm/getting_started-start_custom_miner

If anyone out there would like to take this on and make the request, ask Hive to add our linux binary (I assume hiveos generally runs on ubuntu) and optionally follow through to see if it works etc.

Hmmm, I see an error in the log, something about work queue depth exceeded.

Ill restart it and look into the root cause today.

I was worrying already that I might be on a fork since I got 8 blocks within the last 6 hours.
