[ANN][BLC] Blakecoin Blake-256 for GPU/FPGA With Merged Mined Pools Stable Net

[electron-coin]

Nice!  Thanks Blue!

[Mek]

Wow, that was fast! Really it wasn't something critical to release a hotfix but thanks

BD, have you compiled this on Linux? I tried compiling it with the same build environment as before but keep getting errors.

[BlueDragon747]

yes it compiles on ubuntu make sure you use openssl 1.0.2d

whats the error say btw?

Tell us what kind of problem do you have.

[photon_coin]

may need to use wget to get open ssl updated on linux ....


thanks to bluedragon747 for this non time sensitive but important security patch

awesome effort my builds are on github of photon as well,

I tried again from scratch and it compiled  Although I did have to comment out two lines in the blakecoin-qt.pro file. It was looking for the mngw version of the boost libraries, but mngw is for windows right? Anyways, I was wondering what changes were made in this update. Thanks BD

good for you, you learned some things

[BlueDragon747]

updates added for strict DER checks for openssl with 1.0.2d this should avoid some exploits in openssl and help consensus, also added a new checkpoint

MinGW is used for creating windows binaries but can also be run on linux for cross compiling

Sth strange on EU3, pool hashrate tops net hashrate.

Sth strange on EU3, pool hashrate tops net hashrate.

net hashrate is based on past avg block finds while pool is based on current share rate past 3-5 minutes

[MarSas]

Good to know that.

Is it safe to say EU3 miners have been listening to Daft Punk ft. Pharrell more than others on the network?

[BlueDragon747]

Good to know that.

yeah maybe

I do see some bigger miners returning to mine with quite a bit of hashing power maybe they also mine other coins/algo's with their rigs?

It's Blake-256,  All Day Every Day.

Blaketrader and @tipElectron tipbot are going to be down until tomorrow. Doing some work on the servers.

Hey, have you seen the VanillaCoin FPGA stuff?

How does their hashing algo compare to blake?

I think it's not a Bitcoin clone so that's interesting!

go ask in their thread this is not right place to talk about VanillaCoin  

also don't ask me to port it to your board not going to happen better things to do with my time

mojo(LX9 chip) is pretty much a tiny FPGA board and not good for hash thoughput far as hashing power goes as it is always a size/speed trade off for most algo's no way will it compete with GPU imho!

multi core and getting a good fmax design built to bitstream in Xilinx ISE is a Major PITA *ISE also requires a full licence for LX150 chips not many devs have this!

Not Based on work already done for FPGA = Porting it to other boards will be interesting/torture  

but dont take my word for it build it and port to your board and see for yourself maybe I am wrong

It's already ported to ztex 1.15y!

But, hm...

"john-conner's project, Vanillacoin (VNL), includes a significant amount of reformatted and, at best, lightly-edited Bitcoin code which has illegally and unethically had its attribution and copyright notices removed. In addition, he describes Vanillacoin as written "from scratch in its entirety", a false, misleading, and fraudulent claim that is being used to promote his coin. Given that this shows dishonesty, low credibility, and willingness to engage in unethical conduct, extreme caution is advised." -smooth

ok?

go talk about it in their thread this is not the right place to talk about other algo coins -.-

I personally leave attribution and copyright notices as they are to give the people that did hard work the respect they deserve

If you got a bitstream then go mine it if you want no need to tell me or troll this thread with stuff about other projects that are not related to Blakecoin or other Blake eco coins
