[ANN] Copper Bars | Scrypt-Jane CPU | Accepted for Gold and Silver soon [CPR]

[r3wt]

What N value are you using for this, Igotspots?

Sorry, missed your question. The nFactor is currently 32

you mean 4 right?

I asked someone else to come in and explain the nFactor a little bit better than I can

My understanding is that it should be set the same as YAC as for retargets which is ~2 weeks time. The nice thing about the n is when it changes it instantly makes GPU mining harder.

Eh, there isn't much to understand about N and Nfactor but here are the basics:

Lesson 1
Nfactor grows by +1, while N doubles so:

Nfactor 4 N 32
Nfactor 5 N 64
Nfactor 6 N 128
Nfactor 7 N 256
Nfactor 8 N 512
Nfactor 9 N 1024
Nfactor 10 N 2048
Nfactor 11 N 4096
Nfactor 12 N 8192


Lesson 2

Nfactor of 12 or N of 8196 is the point at which GPU's stop being able hash using the scrypt jane method.

Hmm. I don't believe that's true. Using an N value of 12 that's 1MB needed to run one hash. So a 1 (1,024 MB) GB card could run 1,024 hashes?

you should really read up on it. theoretically it could still hash, but for some reason gpu's quit hashing at nfactor12. its pretty much a known fact

Seems to me updating fine now for me, but...I think I lost those initial coins mined.
I'm not sure how many there were because I don't see them in pending/transaction history.
From the screenshot I posted, it looked like I mined 3 blocks? I don't know if the 18 transactions means anything (newbie me is sort of new to this).
Anyway, thanks for troubleshooting help, everyone.

edit: derp, listtransactions shows them all as orphans :/

Those are orphans. I have over 500 of them. It happens at low difficulties. There's a block found every 2 seconds or so, so there'll be LOTS for orphans for quite a while (it usually gets better once the diff goes up a bit)

anybody can give me the windows client another link? i can't download it!

My 19 orphans are crying. May their tears will fuel the copper miners. :p

[iGotSpots]

Lol, yea, orphans suck. We are working on a P2Pool right now which will be perfect for this coin.

We designed it to be fast (and had planned for the orphanage). This coin was designed for one reason. To keep a stable, steady price for precious metals. We had to have fast blocks to make merchant services easier to use, Right now, orphans are just a small price to pay for stability. Once we get some good pools running and a higher hashrate on the network, things will even themselves out and you guys will be very pleased with the results

[forsetifox]

14 orphans, 3 blocks with 56k hashes/s in about 4.5 hours.

isnt this the right chain?

Your diff seems low, though at a block every 2s hard to say.

[TheSpiral]

Should be right, though I haven't had a confirmed block in a couple hours...

So whats the money supply at this point?

I am assuming

335 Copper Bars

52480blocks * 0.0064

We are working on a pool. As soon as it catches up with the block chain it'll be up. P2P

[forsetifox]

Block chain is almost 250 MB. If it keeps going at this rate it'll be 5.25 GB a week.

Its ok to be jealous but if you could take it elsewhere that would be awesome

We have one pool up at CPR.coinmine.pl let me know if that one works

Still working on the p2pool
