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

[iGotSpots]

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

and the facepalm continues

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

jealous? j-coin > copperbars

(PERIOD)

Right. So anyway

ok, i'm sorry Spots. i just wish you would let some one influence you into making a better coin. this coin could have been bad ass, now its just an orphanfest with a  blockchain size that will rival bitcoin's in ~two weeks. the worst part is, you'll soon find out its very hard to get wallets to sync with that small of blocktimes. ask any fast coin user. just trying to help you out man, maybe i should have pm'd you. i get the feeling you wouldn't listen. you're bullish like that(which is a good thing in business but bad from a technical standpoint). maybe you could create an implementation of electrum for this coin to ease the strain on users. just my .02 cents

I cannot get the blockchain to sync on multiple linux machines.  Copperbarsd crashes when trying to sync.

I deleted the blockchain and tried to re-download it but it still doesn't work.  I don't have any "addnodes" listed in my conf file.

I managed to mine over 3 copperbars last night, but now none of my six linux machines will sync.

If I can't get copperbarsd to resync, I'd like to be reimbursed for my copperbars.

Thanks

Ahh, now i'm giving up. Anyone wanna share the wealth, please do. CGa6KqHwKV8ruxQS3fasA91pdYD5g8PFkV

i went from 2+ to zero in seconds.

Can we get a windows GPU build

[iGotSpots]

You guys really need to make sure you delete all the addnodes from your conf or you're going to keep losing coins...

[iGotSpots]

I'm also interested in this. I'd be willing to throw a little bit down on a bounty for it too in either BTC or Spots. I don't have shit for CPR yet, or I'd offer those too

[2Kool4Skewl]

This blockchain is UNSYNCABLE!  The blocks are coming in too fast!  Brace for crash!

[iGotSpots]

I really wish I would get any of the errors you guys are running in to.

Also, I never said this was a test. I said the plan was to accept it on iGotSpots.com in 7 days

I'm having a real hard time justifying killing this project without getting any errors myself...I believe you guys, but I think once everything is sorted out and diff rises, everything will be running fine, just like it had been for me this whole time

[iGotSpots]

Maybe I should've just stayed out of scrypt-jane...but it fits so well with what my plan was to have Spots and Bars mined at the same time.

At this point, if we re-start the coin, it's going to lose all respect and will be completely worthless after the re-launch

scrypt chacha i'snt the problem, too fast of blocks with a low diff is.

Not that I want to see it restarted (I have quite a lot mined), but a coin does need to be sustainable.

Just launched a new linux client to see if I can get the same problem. First 10k seem fine (no crashes yet etc), biggest issue is there are a ridiculous amount of orphans on the chain (page after page of them in the log)

Orphans were expected. That's not the issue. I'm going to keep it running for a little while longer and see what happens. I really think it will sort itself out. I'm not seeing any forks at all on the 5 nodes I've had running since minute 1

[2Kool4Skewl]

Attempting resync.  What is the current block?

[iGotSpots]

Give me a few more days to see if I can get it smooth. If it does fail, the ones that stick around I'll reward in some Spots for your wasted time. I wouldn't keep going if I didn't think it would work

"blocks" : 55347,

I haven't had any fork or network issues personally, so I really can't justify quitting on it so easily

[96redformula]

After you compile in linux what command line are you guys using to run ybcminer, I can't seem to get it to run.

I get "unrecognized option"


ybcminer --scrypt

and ybcminer --scrypt-jane

Remember the nodes you bolded to remove?

Those were nodes on different chains.

~BCX~

Yea, I fucked up on the nodes. They are gone and everyone should have removed them by now

That shouldn't be a coin killer though

[2Kool4Skewl]

Resync failed at 3705 and corrupted my wallet!  There goes over 0.6 coins!

Stay in school bro.  Just kidding, I kid, I kid.

Sheer number of them seems to be messing with syncing. The linux node I launched has been sitting at around 10034 blocks with thousands upon thousands of orphans being processed ( im guessing these are the other forks getting trashed). Been there for several minutes now.


Once it does get synced (assuming you dont restart) it seems to be okay. It may correct itself in time, will have to see. Forks are bad though =/

You have to enable scrypt when you run ./configure (see the build.txt files for a list)

Edit: That being said, I am not sure having more GPU miners on is a good idea ...
