我挖了三天一个都没挖到，I5 3210

I did not dig dug three days one, I5 3210 --- Google translate

-- assuming his i5 had not mined a single block in 3 days.

Correct!

I mined (excavated/dug) three days and never got one ("one never hit"), I5 3210.

Is there something wrong with the pool at http://176.221.46.81:8372?
I added 3 servers with around 1,000 kh/s total, the miner was running properly, getting shares and everything, but I got no payment and nothing in the Block explorer after several hours, even after double checking that I put the proper address in the miner.

I too had problems with that pool after successfully earning payouts for an hour they stopped coming.

It looks like there are 2 additional pools though now, but I have not used either yet I'm solo mining currently

I can't get mine working properly...   it's getting some error about 'quark-hash' not being found or some such & not loading headers...   just going to take it down instead of leaving that shell up

Bummer, I think we need to have multiple pools running to help with the whole decentralization thing this community seems to live by

I had the same problem until I looked around in Neisklar's Github. Git clone this https://github.com/Neisklar/quarkcoin-hash-python , then python setup.py install, then the pool should work.
Thanks to everyone testing, seems to run good so far, weirdly my yacpool had some hiccups this morning, investigating.

Hello,

I would like to know the block halving history of the coin.

When was the last and when is the next ?

Any thoughts about the price evolution of this coin regarding halving and difficulty increase ?

[ciklop1974]

Today, what is the problem with translations into Cryptsy. Made several transactions with different purses, and on the balance of an 2 hour is nothing. Whats a problem?

Every 60,000 blocks, so the next halving is after block 120,000.

Every 60,000 blocks, so the next halving is after block 120,000.

Currently at block 112,700, so the next halving is about 8,000 blocks from now (about 3 days from now).

As the Developer said, the next halving is at 120960, around 3 days time.

As regards price evolution, because nearly all the supply is coming now, I would expect there to be plenty of cheap coin around for a while, until it settles in strong hands. The price is staying very low for now, and will at some stage have the potential for a sharp increase. At that point how high it goes depends on what the community decides to do.

I am looking to buy a substantial stake in around 1-2 months time (when I will have some spare capital).

It looks like the pool has just gone down. 

It's back 

[dmatthewstewart]

If I already have poolers cpuminer cant I jsut add the quark support to that? if so, how to I do that from the terminal (Linux). Sorry but when I see the link to github I see a lot of notes on the quark files but there has to be a command I can just type into the terminal to update/install the needed files. Soooo...any help on that, please?

[eule]

It looks like the pool has just gone down.  

http://176.221.46.81:8372/static/ is still reachable, which means the p2pool process is still running but encountered some error out of my experience. I bet it'll be up again soon.
Feel free to try out my p2pool node in the meantime (shameless plug): http://qrkpool.tk:8868/static/
Nevermind it's up again.  

@ dmatthewstewart:
If you have the source, probably, but i guess a fresh git clone would be easier to work with.

Code:

apt-get install git libcurl-dev libjansson-dev
git clone https://github.com/Neisklar/quarkcoin-cpuminer
./autogen.sh # only needed if building from git repo
./configure CFLAGS="-O3"
make
strip minerd

You must be root for the apt-get command to work, or use sudo.

[ZirconiumX]

it's the same, there is a binary posted about 3 pages back that someone was nice enough to make. If you feel adventures the source has been moved to github

I can upload a binary as well if there's interest.

That would be great, I would like to see it tested on something not AMD first. There is a "makeprofile.sh" script. It now has enough warnings that I worry it may have issues if not tested. Looks good right now, but the goal is fast, not necessarily good. Anyway, if the middle two lines match anything else the script prints out, at least two hashes where done correctly....


Oh, and there is a new option.
./configure CFLAGS="-msse2 -O3 -DCHEAT"
needs testing but the idea is that it's faster to just try a new nonce that run groestl twice. Anytime that section is found to be needed ran, it just give up. Half of the hashes end up being garbage. But, it now does more than twice the speed, for a net gain. EXPERIMENTAL, need to be ran to see if actually improves payouts as it may be losing shares. Still runs that section when required, but never twice.

Definitely experimental, considering [2013-08-28 16:48:36] accepted: 0/106 (0.00%), 0.00 khash/s (booooo). I'm switching back to v1.

Thank you for all your replies.

I wish this coin will to get big with time.

Well once the demand grows and let miners dump, it could.
