It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

Yep, but these are 15 blocks dating back a few days suddenly all turned to question marks saying offline and no other nodes recognise them and probably wont be accepted??  Is this a fork, and i mining on the wrong chain ?? how to solve this?

this has forked because i just closed and restarted and the stupid qt is now saying 36 hours behind and all those blocks just vanished. I was mining on the wrong chain and i bet others probably are too. Waste of 2 days.

Please download updated clients, these are using the official code base versus the "optimized" code on my branch which may be causing problems.

These replace my releases 5 and 8 respectively. Let me know if there are any other releases you were using.

Some of my observations:

The average block generating speed for the first 1000 blocks was about 44s;
The average block generating speed right now (around block 21400) is about 8.8s;
Considering difficulty and other factor, I calculated the total mining power increases 72 times.  If we assume the algorithm optimizing provide 7 fold improvement, then I guess the miner base increased by a factor of 10 since start.

Just redownloaded the block chain and watched the logs fly by, lots of orphans started too show up since this morning. Must be someone out there figured out an external miner? or people using DigitalOcean(VPS)

I myself also jumped on the wrong chains three times already.  Because the block generating is so fast now collisions are much more likely.  My personal experience with the new "released" version has a 10fold pps than before.  If that's the case for everyone then 7 times more CPUs are running, which makes sense to me.

The publicity for PrimeCoin is really good.  Only 5 days into mining there are already like 4 or 5 reports on the internet, including 2 headline articles from Bitcoin Magazine.  So it is not so surprising a lot more people try to enbark the adventure.:-)

Block generation should be slower. 60 seconds is just too fast.

people are complaining not get blocks Cheesy  If it was set slower many miners would quit.

how do you know if you are on the wrong block chain, also witch files do you delete to re-download the blockchain.

If you find your "current number of blocks" stay the same for a long time, then you are in trouble.  To be sure, you may check http://www2.crypto-expert.com/primecoin/index.php to see what is the correct number right now.

Just restart the software and it will automatically reconnect to the network and update the block chain(most probably the correct one...).

Quote from: page you linked
This was a good test to learn the basics of Cuda, however, it is not really practical. Although it proved to be significantly faster than anything I could write to run on my CPU, it is limited to 64bit integers which for practical prime number finding are useless. The largest prime number known is 12,978,189 digits long (http://primes.utm.edu/largest.html) and I certainly do not have the math background to compete with that.
Granted, the primes Primecoin deals with are only around a hundred digits long, but that's still much too long for that code to work with.
