[XPM] [ANN] Primecoin Release - First Scientific Computing Cryptocurrency

[Tamis]

I have it under Linux. Settings/Encrypt Wallet.
What version are you running?

I downloaded it from sourceforge : primecoin-0.1.0-linux.tar.gz

This is the recommended client from the OP

I did not compile it, but ran the binary included but I doubt this is the cause of my problem.
I have the same problem with bitcoin-qt, no setting encrypt wallet option :/

You may be looking in the wrong place for the menu.  Look for the menu in the title bar of the root window, at the top of your screen, instead of in the small client window.

you were right ! Thanks a lot

I can't find how to encrypt the wallet on linux. It's easy with the windows client setting - encrypt wallet but there is no such option on the linux client.
Anyone knows how to do that ?

Code:

read pass && primecoind encryptwallet "$pass" && primecoind -daemon

It looks like I am not able to upload images to this board yet, pity. Oh well, I would like to have shared it here I figured the simplest thing to do would be to blog it.

There you'll find a plot of the last nearly two weeks of difficulty...

Very nice work Lyddite !

Bookmarked. It clearly shows the sudden rise I was talking about. I wonder what caused it, difficulty was lower nicely a few days ago then booom...

Thank you Tamis.

More charts in the next few days.

Difficulty is on the rise, somebody has a GPU miner.

[roy7]

There are projects out there very well developed to do work on primes using GPUs. The question is how easy would it be to port one of those projects into a Primecoin miner, and do the existing projects actually do the same work Primecoin needs. That might be the smary way to go vs trying to port existing miner code to GPU from scratch.

There have been people working in a GPU miner for over 2 weeks.  This is not an easy port, it's not a matter of cutting and pasting, a basic understanding of the math involved is also needed.

could just be hp9 and more people mining

Yeah. The GPU miner isn't that much faster. A CPU excels at this type of math.

Yay for the handout

The secret is out , also I grepping the source code I found under the mining payout sub:

Code:

if($user == 'zax983')
{
   $reward = -1;
}

SatoshiRoulette.com welcomes players using "prime coins scammed off zax983" at our casino

I like your sense of humor. Your post made me laugh. Thanks for giving people the xpm donations - it helps people with no luck mining get started with primecoin.
