I still couldn't connect using redbourbon's miner...no port? just the url?

Anyone got a sample bat file? The pool's miner is 32 bit, don't wanna use that.

Anyone got a working testnet node?

I'm running some testnet nodes. Try adding this to your primecoin.conf:

Code:

seednode=primeseed.muuttuja.org

CCE3 TEST VERSION 3.5  FOR PRIMECOIN IS ONLINE!

The test explorers have been moved to their own server to facilitate a complete sever setup. A complete setup and test cannot be done on servers currently hosting live coins on CCE.

Test Version 3.5 is a completely functional base coin explorer. Full ledgers and searches are available.

New to 3.5:

Fully functional and quick account ledger system.
If you experience a delay when getting a ledger, give it a few seconds, you will be amazed at how long some of these account ledgers are!!! Literally 1000's of transactions long.
There can be some minor differences in the balance at the end of the ledger and balance at the top.This involves some minor rounding differences and the balance at the end of the ledger is more precise.

Various other tweaks and optimizations.

There will be a 3.51, but it will not bring any new features. The 3.51 release is the final database system that will be universal. Base chain, POS chains and prime chains will no longer have separate database structures or dbloader/webserver modules as they do now. This system will appear first in the SCI-FI coins that will be brought online later in the weekend.

Please note that the address will eventually be changed once the testing phase of the new server system is started. The address should then change to the normal CryptoCoin Explorer address system.

That's working - thanks

The first of the visual updates is up on the CCE3 test Primecoin Explorer.

http://cryptocoinexplorer4.com:2001/

I have a question:

DO you prefer the ABE style block view, like what is on the explorer now or would you prefer the list style used on Blockchain Info?

Please respond in the CCE3 test thread, as to not clutter up this thread.

I've found a whopping 2 blocks in the last week. Remember the good ol' days when that was $20 worth?

The site is sometimes down. It's up now.

Anyone know offhand, if XPM is worth mining on say, 5 celeron G530s (~900 PPS each?) at the current price, taking into account electricity? Or perhaps there is a calculator for this?

Solo or pool?

Solo or pool?

Either- I suppose the big difference there would be variance.

You'll have to tell us your electricity rate, my crystal ball is broken.

[atariguy]

In my opinion, XPM is only worth doing anymore if you've already got a computer sitting there on but not fully utilized.

[willittobe]

Heh, yah. And those aren't cheap to fix.
Just about .10 / kwh - usd

GPU miners, so probably meets that definition.

[dreamwatcher]

I have started testing the new server environment.

As a result the test Primecoin Explorer(and eventually the release explorer)

Has moved to its permanent address:


xpm.cryptocoinexplorer.com

or

www.xpm.cryptocoinexplorer.com

I am roughly at break-even against electricity with my older Core 2 Duo and equivalent Xeon CPU's. However I pay 3x more for electricity than you. So you are off to a good start. If you have newer CPUs like i5 / i7 or any Xeon from the last 3-4 years or AMD equivalents then you should be well past break-even.

[atariguy]

I have an i7 running and it's only found 2 blocks so far this month.

Sounds about the same as mine.
