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

[ReCat]

big rigs are nerfed.

[testz]

Here is what I'm using to transfer the balances to my main wallet from my other instances every hour:

Code:

#!/usr/bin/env python

import subprocess
import sys
from decimal import Decimal

daemon, addr = sys.argv[1], sys.argv[2]

balance = Decimal(subprocess.check_output([daemon, 'getbalance']))

if balance > Decimal('1'):
    cansend = balance - Decimal('0.01')
    subprocess.check_call([daemon, 'sendtoaddress', addr, str(cansend)])

Run it with:

Code:

./bal.py ./primecoind YOURMAINADDRESS

while sleep 1h; do python ./bal.py ./primecoind YOURMAINADDRESS; done

Obviously first parameter is the path to primecoind, second parameter is the address to send XPMs to.

By the way it looks like the max fee (for fresh coins) is 0.01. Good.

I copy same wallet.dat to all computers and get all mined XMP into one wallet.

I've done the same...

so what you saying? it is actualy not about computing primes, but being equal? so how about this, you run your client and doesnt matter how fast you can compute, you just participate in lottery.. and those with bigger gear to compute, actually has a less chance to get anything.

yay, let me get my xt from the basement, should be a moneymaker!

what an idiocy...

I found 3 blocks last night with my i7 3770. Yay I feel special.

Can someone tell me how to find your Pr/S? I don't know the command.

I don't find a block for 5h30 and then i find two consecutive block!

Hope I get some luck. I have my i52500k running all 4 cores, my wifes pentium and a work laptop all churning away. Not a single block yet  

[nullbitspectre1848]

I've been mining for 14 hours without a single thing...........

If anyone cares to help me get going:

Ok!!... I think I got it... I think I have to sacrifice a virgin in a pyre meanwhile I performance a tribal dance in order to get more blocks... ok... so... I'll tell you the results in a while (when I can find a f***ing virgin... of course) 

[Carra23]

Has the difficulty shot up? Haven't got anything for over a day.

[Xaltotun]

Heh, my old P4 2.6 Ghz machine found a block this morning. Been running it since launch along with my other spares. I'm up to about 100 coins so far between them all.

Yeah, it's very random. I didn't find a block for about 8 hours on my i7 and then found two within 10 minutes. Good luck!

Here's a diff/patch I made off a freash git clone with the changes mentioned and some makefile changes I used.

Thanks! Works great. I left my max sieve size at 1000000u but otherwise applied what you had. Now to do some testing...

Does it even help for sure? what does maxsieve size do?

it's likely that after 100 blocks mined, the keys for the addresses of each mined block will start to diverge, since bitcoin (and probably primecoin) doesn't have deterministic wallets.  Recommend that you keep all copies of all wallets that contain primecoins just incase this ever happens.
