About

Purk is an open source, ASIC resistant, private and untraceable cryptocurrency that monetises your content and provides almost instant, worldwide privacy protected payments with minimal transaction fees. Based on Boolberry & CryptoNote technology, Purk helps balance CPU, GPUmining speeds, which encourages fair and equal distribution whilst providing extremely fast block verification times.

Purk was created to help content owners and service providers monetise their website or application by accepting quick and easy micropayments from their users or customers. Website users can send Purk to a content owner or service provider to show appreciation for their hard work. By sending micropayments as a tip, it highly reduces the amount of monetisation that is needed on a website. Instead of using intrusive adverts, affiliate links, pop ups and sponsored posts, website owners can install the Purk Button and accept quick and easy payments to monetise their content or service instead. Not only does this reduce the amount of promotional clutter on a website, it also reduces costs on content writing and saves time by allowing your customers to tip/pay your writers or employees directly.

Purk Button API

You can use the Purk Button public stats API to build advanced websites and applications that accept donations and micropayments. Whether you want to monetize website content, create fundraising platforms or raise money for charitable causes; the Purk Button API has everything you need to integrate Purk with your website and retrieve detailed statistics about payments and donations being made by your users.

Miners

• CPUMiner-Multi - CPU
  
• CPUMiner-Multi-OpenCL - CPU+GPU
  

Note: The Wild Keccak algorithm was designed for resistance against ASICs (and to "some" extent GPUs). AMD miners will have a better experience mining Purk using the OpenCL miner. Whilst Nvidia mining is still highly profitable, an optimised CUDA miner is still yet to be released making hashrate reductions and light instability very probable.

Roadmap

2018-2019

• Purk Button
  
  
  • An open source button that gives publishers the ability to monetise their content, website or application and allows users to send Purk as a gratuity or tip in a couple of clicks.
  
  
• Exchange Listings
  
  
  • Applications will begin for Purk to start trading on the exchanges. Exchange listings will be taken in to careful consideration before applying, based on trust, platform software, security and cost. This is a long, drawn-out process and will be an ongoing task until we reach our target.
  
  
• Launch Public API
  
  
  • Currently we track the donation wallet address, button creation date, website URL and the amount of donations that have been received for each Purk Button that is generated. Once this phase is complete we will be able to receive donation totals in PURK (opt-in), impressions (opt-in), tx hash, donor wallet address variance and user button interaction. We will be publishing the PURK Button API and allowing websites and blockchain based applications to integrate using an API key. Documentation website to be developed and published also.
  
  
• Automatic Wallet Consolidation
  
  
  • Since launch we have already implemented a manual consolidation command in Simplewallet to deal with small input payments and eliminate dust from a wallet. We propose to develop new functionality that allows wallet users to auto-consolidate incoming transfers in command line and GUI wallet.
  
  
• Wallet RPC API
  
  
  • Whilst the current Simplewallet RPC API can be used for integration, we would like to provide exchanges a secondary option to integrate Purk with their application. The Wallet RPC API will have 20 new RPC methods which use the latest CryptoNote protocol. Current Simplewallet RPC API will stay in-tact.
  
  
• Alias Registration
  
  
  • We intend to improve the current alias registration system by allowing users to associate an alias ID directly from the GUI wallet or command line wallet when you make a transfer – as opposed to when you solo mine a block.
  
  
• LMDB Development
  
  
  • Currently system requirements need a minimum of 8GB RAM to use the Purk client. We will be integrating LMDB (lightning memory mapped database) which will improve blockchain synchronisation speed and allow lower spec PC’s and applications with limited resources to integrate Purk with ease.
  
  
• Donations Platform
  
  
  • As a fully decentralised cryptocurrency, development updates should not be decided by a single, central authority. To ensure the natural progression of Purk we will start development on a donations and fundraising platform, where a community of Purk supporters, donee’s and donors can vote on development updates, advertising proposals and PR for Purk alongside other donation based projects that are listed by the community.
  
  
• Instant Encrypted Messages
  
  
  • As a fully decentralised cryptocurrency, development updates should not be decided by a single, central authority. To ensure the natural progression of Purk we will start development on a donations and fundraising platform, where a community of Purk supporters, donee’s and donors can vote on development updates, advertising proposals and PR for Purk alongside other donation based projects that are listed by the community.
  
  
• Redesign Wallet GUI
  
  
  • Complete redesign and development of the wallet GUI. Additional wallet features to be implemented from previous roadmap items such as encrypted messages and optional traceable transfers.

You can see the complete roadmap on our website or at Trello.


Team

The Purk Project utilises a contractor model that allows for new individuals, groups and companies to contribute to the Purk Project. Currently, Purk consists of a small number of contributing members who work on the project:

• 3+ developers who contribute to new code, maintain the current code and implement roadmap features in Purk's open-source software and repositories.
• 3+ marketing contractors who actively market/advertise Purk through a number of mediums including; paid advertising, media, outreach and networking.
• 2+ graphic web/designers who work alongside the developers and marketing contractors and deliver all visual components for web applications, websites, software and advertising.

Faça a mineração solo. Estou usando um core2duo e com 15min encontrei um bloco. Acredito que daqui pouco tempo não sera possível sem uma pool.

Do a solo mining. I'm using a core2duo and with 15min I found a block. I believe that in January, time is not possible without swimming pool.

Why has the block reward reduced from 84 to 0.85 ?
I am pretty sure i started from mining at block 80 and my share was more than 10% of 84 BR.

I haven't got any of those shares. The total so far i have got is 0.12 PURK.
and now i am getting my share from BR of 0.84. How is it possible to have 0-960 block producing 81294 purks at a block reward of 0.84?
All so confusing. Looks like you just deviated from your own announcement within a day.

When you mine through a pool, you get your share of the block reward.  Your share is based on your hash rate in proportion for the entire pool when the block was found.

The pay rate seems to be ok for me.

It was just a pool frontend issue. I have received more than 40 purks in my wallet now.

Not to be impolite but Dev can you please fix the pool that is like that from start? I'm wasting half of my power because of this situation and is not nice   

Hi, you are not wasting any power, it is just a frontend issue with the pool. Rewards are not affected. You are more than welcome to come back when we have fixed the frontend issue on the pool (which we are working on now) but will not make any changes to your rewards.

If you are disconnecting, chances are that you are mining on the wrong port with the wrong difficulty.

Thank you for the quick reply.
Yes I know that very often what is showed on the frontend is not actually right but what about the rejected share on the miner (ccminer/ boooo), those are wasted Hash and power, I've three gtx 1080 on three different pcs, all set with port 8888 (max difficulty) and all have around half the share rejected....... That's a pool problem

[spearbuilders]

I have been mining with 22 580s and 2 Vegas without issue. Barely anyvrejected shares. Mine away people there's plenty of operator errors going on here. Pool is fine except hash rate statistics are off.  Rewards are on point. Don't let others steer you away. This is a coin to finally get excited about. Real use case!

Thanks for your support! It's very disappointing how people are so quickly to jump the gun and spread FUD. We have had a couple of teething issues with the pool but we expect these to iron out shortly. Happy mining : D

Question about the wallet vs pool site totals.  The pool site is showing a total paid that is way higher than what has come into my wallet...is this a display issue or should I expect that amount to come into my wallet eventually?

No Fud intended or gun pointed here! I have just described my situation asking if something is wrong. I know that sometime some miners have problems and others not doing the exact same thing, it's how computers and crypto works.
Probably my fault, I'm doing something wrong but  three different pc in three different places with all the same problem make me rise some questions. Happy for you that you have no problem.
It's very disappointing to see how people doesn't take you seriously.....

great work!  glad to see a professional-looking non-MN project out here.  Hope it does well.

[Lernerz]

I know of at least 50 existing currencies, as well as abandoned projects for accepting tips on all sorts of consensus. Why not one of such currencies is not used? You just want to sell to investors a non-existent problem for real bitcoins.

"Premine: 0%"

Not only does that cut it down from 50, it also means the dev isn't really selling you anything.  Project might go nowhere, but at least its not an ICO or MN sale.  That's reason enough for me to send some hash.

[SamsonBarber]

I am getting a lot of "share doesn't validate on CPU, Hash=xxxxxxxx, target = xxxxxxxx' anyone else having these issues?
my efficiency is terrible because of this it only like 40-50% which I think is why the pool is only seeing about half of my total hashrate.  Is anyone having this issue?

Sounds like OC issue.

[nsummy]

Hey what's going on with this pool got a whole bunch of jobs expired.

That was happening to me, then I changed ports to lower the difficulty.  Fixed it for me.  Try port 5555

Edit, I take that back.  That made it worse.  Cranking up the difficulty helped it somewhat.  It looks like right before a new block is found the jobs all reject.

[ad1000rso]

Is good to miner Nvidia?

Whats the config overclock?

[wenjiannin]

LIKES BBR????clone?

[IonicTong]

can this be mined with claymore dual miner for AMD as it supports dual mining for keccak............ can someone post the configurations?

This is wild keccak, its different, but we will be in contact once the coin gets more support and hopefully claymore can start supporting...

Is this cryptonight algo ?? Can cpu mine using xmr-stak-cpu ?

[IonicTong]

I read the white paper. A lot of general information. I would like more specifics. I realized that this is an investment fund related to hedging risks.

Not at all. This is an old school, no premine, no ICO, no hedging, mineable CPU and GPU cryptocurrency.

[zalavaari]

Is there anybody around, who managed to start GPU mining with the "purkproject/cpuminer-multi-opencl" miner on linux?

I've got only segmentation faults.

[YourMom420]

Its a variation of cryptonight. It cant be mined with xmr stak. There is a link to the miner in the ann.

What is the payout schedule and minimum amount?
What is the advised port for 6xRX480?

UPDATE: POOL NOW WORKING PERFECTLY

Mining Pool is now operating as it should be. Statistics are correct, no more boooos and no more disconnections! Happy mining Purkers!

https://pool.purkproject.com

Can the pool also display something like "total unpaid", to show mining progress waiting for confirmation/next payout?
What is the payout schedule and minimum amount?
What is the advised port for 6xRX480?

Thanks to whomever answers....

Not at the moment, we are focusing on development of the coin over the pool. We created the pool to help everyone be able to get a fair share of PURKs, it's not in our direct development plans. It is working and payments are being sent automatically. Other pools may pop up in time and if they do we will add them to this thread.

On win10, 6x AMD RX480, miner as in OP
- on the dev pool, I am getting a reported hash rate of about 50 MH/s, mining around 540 PURKs a day, still disconnects/relogins
- on fairpool, I am getting a reported hash rate of about 30 MH/s, mining around 610 PURKs a day
- on fairpool, I now see my average hash rate dropping, no clue why
- on both pools I see stand stills and sudden hash rate drops
This is not a complaint, coin is in week 1, just meant as feedback that can help improvement for the dev team and pool owner. Keep up the good work, it's much appreciated!

Fear, nah
Uncertain, yeah, still don't know how to improve my hash rate
Doubt, definitely, as lowering the intensity decreased my hash rate, upping it improved it...

Intensity
12 - around 3 to 4 MH/s
15 - around 22
17 - around 29
19 - raised to 39 but then lowered to around 30
It seems raising the difficulty by the pool leads to an unnecessary low hash rate, would that be possible?

Hi,

Using CPUMiner-Multi-OpenCL - CPU/GPU with 5x7950 rig on pool purk.fairpool.xyz.

Found out very strange thing...

When started mining a few days ago my hashrate was 13mh.
After 1 day it's decreased to 10 mh.
And now it's only 8.7mh...

Why it may happen?

[hexing110]

Hello, can you optimize the AMD hash?
AMD graphics card mining Purk performance is not fully used.
The use of AMD card to excavate Purk contrast N card is very bad

Seriously doubt that, ocminer has a lot to lose if he's releasing viruses.  He has one of the biggest altcoin pools at suprnova.cc so I don't think he stands much to gain ripping people off with a miner.

From Discord

ANNOUNCEMENT - OFFICIAL POOL OFFLINE

As of this afternoon 5PM GMT we had to take the official Purk mining pool offline. We didn't take this decision lightly and we sincerely apologise to all of those affected. At first we thought we were under DDOS attack, but after further investigation it turned out that due to a glitch in the pool script; redis was sending over 800 GB of data requests to the server which has sent our hosting bill to astronomical/unaffordable levels (you can't even imagine).

The issue of course can be fixed, but since the pool is not our main priority we have decided not to bring it back online. This is NOT the bumpy launch we wanted or imagined for Purk and now the pool is offline we can concentrate on the development of the coin and the API.

We left redis running until all pending payments had been processed, so your earnings have not been affected, other than the down time. Again, we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience thats been caused.

To continue mining Purk as usual please visit https://purk.fairpool.xyz/

because if i type in bat file for this miner
“ccsolominer.exe --algo=wildkeccak -o 127.0.0.1:10120 --coinbase-addr=myaddr from wallet --no-stratum --no-longpoll”
nothing is happen and miner says me “invalid address –  ‘(myaddr from wallet)’ ”.


also i can’t add purk.conf file and specify any parameters like “rpcuser,rpcpassword,rcpallowip,etc.” because then wallet doesn’t start.may be i must write something in gui.conf file (appdata/roaming/purk) ,but I don’t know what and how to do this.

The disconnected clients are just nodes from around the world its connected to previously, if these stay disconnected they will drop in to grey, then eventually drop off altogether. We can't control who creates nodes and discontinues them for whatever reason unfortunately. This doesn't affect anything. purkd still runs and operates perfectly.

Solo mining you will have to wait for a while to get a reward, but you shouldn't have any issue with pooled mining as long as your configuration is correct.

how reward decrease from block 6720;13440;29760 and so on?what exactly will be amount of reward?

so,if reward now(block 8953) is 84.3400 purk then i have much less reward than it should be from mining on fairpool.

i have 458.5275 purk reward per 24 hour (17.54 04.04.18 – 17.54 05.04.18) and my hashrate is 13.2*4=52.8 mhs. according to calc on fairpool reward should be much more(1216 purk). even based on very rough calculations reward should be much more ( if 5.41 ghs nethash generate 80995 purk/day with 90sec blocktime then my 52.8 mhs must generate 790.5 purk/day).

on official pool,when it was online,i have full size reward.

i wrote xiphon (pool owner or representative) ,and he confirmed the problem.he said: “The only thing that could affect your rewards is that some mining software could sometimes miss the work updates sent by the pool.”
he is working on fixing this issue.

i write all of this because he may be might need some help.moreover, i do not think that the problem with reduced reward only applies to me.so lets discuss this and solve this problem together.i believe that any help will be appreciated.

i wrote xiphon (pool owner or representative) ,and he confirmed the problem.he said: “The only thing that could affect your rewards is that some mining software could sometimes miss the work updates sent by the pool.”
he is working on fixing this issue.

i write all of this because he may be might need some help.moreover, i do not think that the problem with reduced reward only applies to me.so lets discuss this and solve this problem together.i believe that any help will be appreciated.

Thanks for pointing this out. I'm sure Xiphon will be working on this to get this fixed up ASAP. In the mean time we are also looking to bring back the official pool on a more stable script and will notify everyone here as soon as we do.

The only suggestion is to use official PURK mining software.

how reward decrease from block 6720;13440;29760 and so on?what exactly will be amount of reward?

so,if reward now(block 8953) is 84.3400 purk then i have much less reward than it should be from mining on fairpool.

i have 458.5275 purk reward per 24 hour (17.54 04.04.18 – 17.54 05.04.18) and my hashrate is 13.2*4=52.8 mhs. according to calc on fairpool reward should be much more(1216 purk). even based on very rough calculations reward should be much more ( if 5.41 ghs nethash generate 80995 purk/day with 90sec blocktime then my 52.8 mhs must generate 790.5 purk/day).

Agreed with the above. CPUMiner-Multi and CPUMiner-Multi-OpenCL are the official links to working Purk miners. Anything else is outside of scope and support at the moment.

[IonicTong]

Got about 5K PURK using CCminer on both pools so out-of-scope sounds like bullshit.

As I've mentioned on a previous post here, ccminer hasn't been forked or adjusted to "officially" support Purk - although you can mine perfectly fine with it as it supports Wild Keccak on Boolberry settings... The reason I won't offer support, is because I'm not familiar with the entire code of ccminer, where as cpuminer-multi and cpuminer-multi-opencl I am. Once ccminer has been adjusted and optimised to mine Purk either by us or Truvot, we will link to ccminer as a supported app. Until then, we won't offer any kind of support on ccminer. Hopefully thats a bit clearer now.

reward is norm now.

but since this morning continuously have 2 errors on different cards on different farms:

cl_invalid_command_queue
cl_out_of_resources

and ongoing “Display driver stopped responding and has recovered”.

i have up to date 8.1/391.35 nvidia/32 gb swap file.

what could be the reason?

[IonicTong]

These are both Nvidia reporting faults, just do a quick Google you will see many people have these issues with Nvidia cards...  You may have better luck with a cudaminer. I believe there is a boolberry cuda miner which "in theory" should work for Purk, feel free to give this a go and see if it improves... but as you know, as far as support goes on other miners that are not "approved" at the moment I won't be able to help.

[Newton90]

Hello dev, the wallet cannot be updated the block, is it damaged?

[WelcomeHomeCrypto]

Same here, wallet doesn't want to sync?!

[IonicTong]

Hello dev, the wallet cannot be updated the block, is it damaged?

Firstly, make sure you dont have purkd running in another terminal window.

If you are still facing issue:

Windows - Please delete the /purk folder based in Users/YourUser/AppData/Local/Roaming/purk
Mac - Delete /Users/YourUser/Library/Application\ Support/purk/
Linux - Delete ./purk

Then load up the wallet, it should synch.

[WelcomeHomeCrypto]

Thanks, deleting the blockchain and resyncing from scratch did the job.

[IonicTong]

Does Purk have another pool besides the main pool?
The pool is very unstable!
You somehow need to fix the problem!

The pool is not unstable. Not sure how you get to this assumption... All pools are listed on the front of this thread.

any news/updates about project or purk button?

Been working on the GUI wallet integration this week and getting the new wallet page ready where you will be able grab your Purk button embed code. All shaping up nicely and looking on target for launch at the end of May beginning of June still which is good.

We're also taking a couple of days this week to address a few niggles that some users have reported to me. These are all relatively small and fixable problems that have been spotted which we would also like to get straight sooner rather than later.

As soon as the new release is on Github I will update you here.

[IonicTong]

We have spent the last couple of days fixing some minor bugs with the GUI wallet and also implementing the transfer RPC API for the Purk donations button.

- Fixed issue with GUI wallet synching from 0 every time - User must "close" wallet before exiting
- Fixed unconfirmed transaction date in GUI with payment status
- Implemented wallet RPC API for donations button
- Added confirmation modal for transfer request on GUI wallet

Please uninstall your current version of Purk, delete your cache from ./purk folder and reinstall the latest release from:

https://github.com/purkproject/purk/releases

Enjoy

I just published an article about features, specifications and ongoing development plans for Purk.

[mk111]

Nobody is going to mine this coin,
11000 H/s gives you only 0.24 Purk per day!

[TheVeteran]

What processor do you use? 11000 H/s is really low.

With a Ryzen 1700 at Stock Speed I get reported hashrates of about 1.3 Mhashes. This would be about 28 Purk per day. In reality the hashrate must be much higher because I'm getting about 100 Purk per day.

[RinceWind84]

I am getting ~1mhash/s on an rx460 and roughly the same on an overclocked i7-3930K(@4.4Ghz)

1 MHash/s gives me around 80-120 PURK/day depending on network diff.

So in my experience this coin is both CPU and GPU mineable atm.

Tried 3 times to install on Kubuntu 16.04, following how-to-build (Linux advanced) instructions at https://docs.purkproject.com/. When I come to "cd purk; make -j"
it runs until 86% (check_points_test.cpp.o) is reached
then dozens of cc1plus thingies pop up in KSysGuard, CPU goes to 100%.
The only thing I can do after that is moving the mouse pointer until after a few minutes that also freezes & I have to turn off the laptop. No error messages.

Any idea about what I could have done wrong?

Sounds like cmake is using up too much of your resources to make.

Also with your command you are telling cmake to make everything in Purk, which takes a lot of resources to build. You could probably get away with:

Code:

make -j 1 daemon simplewallet

Is it possible to mine with GPU only
and to use the CPU for other tasks

Thanks for your response. I was just following the official installation how-to.

It's strange. Tried it again. Nothing else running on my computer, it runs up to 86% (not check_points_... this time, though, some connection test). CPU (i5-6200) goes to 100 %, RAM 11.2 of 11.6 GiB, SWAP 7-8 GB. My laptop is not that old & the system not that weak & still ...


Since I'm not much of a command line guy I wanted the GUI wallet. So, for the time being, I suppose, I'll forget Purk. Maybe I'll try it again after some Purk update.

[IonicTong]

Yes. Absolutely. Use OpenCL miner and specify wildkeccak_cl, then the mine will only use your GPU

The official pool is currently down for important maintenance. A number of users have complained about stability of the pools and yesterday we witnessed this first hand. We don't expect to be down for too long, we believe we have identified the issue and we are currently testing the fix. We will update our online social channels accordingly as soon as we are back.

[PlanetCrypto]

The hash of this algorithm has a lot of damage in the mining process, and as time goes on, nvidia's GPU hashing has been going down, and I don't know why.

[IonicTong]

Development Update

We have been working on the final tasks on the Purk button and the API over the last week. The API, is fully tested and ready to go and we only have a few Qt/layout related tasks remaining as well as the implementation of a secure proxy for incoming transfer requests to the wallet from the button. Once that's done we will be preparing for release. Still looking on track for end of May/start of June.

Regarding the main pool. We had to take the pool down again for maintenance yesterday. This was highly important as we'd been hearing reports of instability from miners and yesterday we witnessed ourself a number of sharp drops in hashrate on the pool and long intervals between finding blocks. We had to take action and believe this was the right decision to make.

We've spent all day diagnosing the issues, which at first were not easily apparent. However, we believe we've caught a few of the major problems and "hope" this will be the end of a lot of the mining interferences on the official pool.

Here's what we did:

- Fixed an issue with validBlockTemplates when testing shares which was causing miners to timeout and disconnect
- Implemented asynchronous sending of new jobs to miners after each scratchpad update.
- Added a new configuration option to limit the number of iterations in vardiff
- Fixed current miner hashrate reporting on frontend
- Upgraded to a dedicated server to improve latency and response time
- Sent all payments that were outstanding from yesterday

As always, thanks for your patience and please test the pool and let me know your feedback.

A 51% attack on our own coin would be pretty foolish. That's if it were even possible... https://cryptonote.org/whitepaper.pdf - see ring signatures and private keys.

We're just happy that people are mining, so please feel free to mine as and where you like.

[PlanetCrypto]

Today's PURK network always hash is 8.6 G, this is the biggest hash appear so far, I think the value of the PURK in reflected, also have to say is PURK this algorithm is very save electricity.

About half the price in electricity of ETH mining. Very low consumption : D

[Blue9999]

Yeah. My suggestion will be just buy or mine as many purk coin as possible before both difficulty and price increase so that you don't regret later

The speed seems kind of bad for a 1080 (1450 KHS), 1070 (1800) , what are the speeds of rx580? Also it seems that at pool it is even lower and by a large margin.

Yup you're right. Thats far too low and certainly not right. I would recommend visiting our Discord server and posting in the mining channel, as you should be getting about double that.

[Tansmorph]

The idea of this project has a lot of usecases. I really hope the devs can deliver and don´t run away at some point. Then we can see something big is in making.

[Namixi]

As for me this project is one of the few projects that r attractive for long-term investment! A well-designed roadmap, transparency and projected growth. Definitely worth to participate in

[Newton90]

IonicTong,i have few thousand validated shares in ccminer and then miner relaunch without any apparent reason on all my farms on pool.purkproject.and i have the same situation on purk.circusmining.com (have up to 20 thousand shares and then relaunch).on other algos/coins all mine fine,without any relaunch.

by the way will purk add to exchanges after implementing lmdb (when its release in boolberry project)?

[IonicTong]

The Wild Keccak algo does favour AMD cards and there isn't an optimised Cuda miner as of yet, at the moment ccminer is the best option for Nvidia. For now I would suggest not setting your OC to high and setting up an automatic restart of ccminer over a period of time to avoid this issue as much as possible.

Re LMDB implementation, it's not pressing for us atm whilst the blockchain is the size it is, but in the future it's certainly in our development plans.

[Newton90]

We've had discussions with a small number of exchanges. That's all I'm willing to say on it at the moment.

[!vanovi4]

Purk was created to help content owners and service providers monetize their website or application by adopting quick and simple micropayments from their users or customers. Site users can send Purk to the content owner or service provider to express appreciation for their hard work and that's what makes it unique.

[johntradez]

I see on the roadmap that there are plans to offer optional traceable payments. Won't this reduce the anonymity of users that stick with the untraceable option? The untraceable transactions will then be noticeable from the traceable transactions creating a smaller target for someone to analyze. I think this is the same issue Zcash has since its transactions are not private and anonymous by default, correct?

[IonicTong]

By default transactions will stay untraceable. Optional traceable transfers will be "optional" and will help with providing transparency for users/companies/charities who need a "paper trail" of transactions for donations to offer complete transparency.

[Firefox Italy]

whendo you think it could be in a  exchange ??

[IonicTong]

I would like to buy some Purk before going to market! When will we have any exchange? Is there OTC?

We are in talks with a small number of exchanges. For now, there is an OTC channel on Discord. See: https://discord.gg/cqmSrfz

[NetopyrMan2]

all pools show about 25-35% lower hashrate then show any of miners (24h ++++ )

[johntradez]

By default transactions will stay untraceable. Optional traceable transfers will be "optional" and will help with providing transparency for users/companies/charities who need a "paper trail" of transactions for donations to offer complete transparency.

I'm not sure if you were saying this in response to my post above you but I understand what you're saying. My question is will this reduce the anonymity of the untraceable payments?

Can confirm that altex is working.

Have successfully made 5 deposits (5 different alt-coins), sold them on the exchange in exchange for another coin that I have since withdrawn to my wallet.

Fees are a bit harsh IMO, but at least it's working..

[Sharpeich]

My VEGA64 hashrate is 6.5 MH\s, pool shows 2+ MH\s. Is pool steeling or miner incorrect?

[powemando]

i have one Rig x 6 pcs VEGA 64 and i read here https://cryptomining-blog.com/tag/wild-keccak/ that i should have about 65MH on this kind of rig, but i have only 32MH so about 6 Mh/card. Where is the problem? My config file looks like that:

@echo off
minerd -a wildkeccak_ocl -o stratum+tcp://pool.purkproject.com:7777 -u PK2Wo1tM4mxDfXr4aeWFLF2KS2cd83XYt9APxs32xLLKSCKLhA5wYw3EFnzKsiFeQUDhmg6conv8BLC fFdYBK8eM39Uy7cNpf -p x  -l scratchpad.bin -k https://pool.purkproject.com/scratchpad.bin
pause

[IonicTong]

Pool hashrate reporting is just based on shares, its estimates only. You can test on all pools, you will get the same results.

[Terloavosi]

I got in this business. I am interested to watch how the founders perform the idea!
 Good luck all!

[Sharpeich]

Can I ask Developers publish short How-To for the miner? How can I set it to use only Cpu or only GPU. And where is the log stored? It crashes when I try to set the cpu mining on Xeon.

[IonicTong]

We reached our community goal! PURK is now listed on TradeOgre!

You can now trade:

BTC/PURK

Enjoy everyone!!!

A bull market can reflect investor enthusiasm, if a project is particularly rare, the more will be favored by the investors, looks PURK community is more active, DEV has been very active in the community, interaction is essential.

Hi IonicTong,

I am using RX 570 4GB and 8GB as well, and I see the hashrate almost same.
With RX 570 4GB/8GB, I get 2.2-2.4 mhs.

Is there a way to increase the hashrate of 8GB GPU, at least 1.5x of 4GB GPU?

Thank you.

I use VEGA64 and it seems that this card can perform much more that it is currently, especially the memory usage. Are you planning the update for the miner?

The daemon will start synchronizing with the network. It may take up to several hours.

You can set the level of process detailization by using command "set_log <level>", where <level> is either 0 (no details), 1 (current block height synchronized), or 2 (all details).

Use "help" command to see the list of available commands.

Note: in case you need to interrupt the process, use "exit" command. Otherwise, the current progress won't be saved.

Sounds like you have a corrupt blockchain.bin.

Depending on your OS, open the CLI and type:

Windows

Code:

RD /S /Q "C:\User\YourUser\AppData\Roaming\purk"

Mac

Code:

sudo rm -r /Users/YourUser/Library/Application\ Support/purk

Linux

Code:

sudo rm -rf /home/ubuntu/.purk

Now relaunch your GUI wallet.

This should fix it....

[mgsubie]

Hey guys, I was a super early adopter to Purk way way back in the beginning and the one thing that really stunk is my lack of computing power for mining, truly I loved the project so much that I really wanted to rent to mine it. Im not sure if nicehash offers wildkeccack algo mining rigs but miningrigrental does not. Is there anyway to get them to add it or something? I would really love that and probably would liquidate some coins to rent some power.

Purk looks like noble, I'll be watching this coin and I'll try to buy it at minimum prices, apparently the good chance is now, because when the bull market comes back, maybe it will not take longer.

Then you have to look further my friend. On discord in the #how-to-mine-purk, there are guides for CPU, AMD and Nvidia.


Also try adding an extra line in your batch file with "pause" then the console won't quit on you and you should be able to see any potential error messages. I hope you get it running!

Thanks for response, i tried everything from discord. The fact is that it doesn't report any error, it just closes after downloading the .bin file. Looks like the miner itself has some restrictions for processors. The same settings on the computer with Intel core i5 8th (6 core) works just fine. The Xeon can't start mining. Waiting for the update of miner from developers. Anyway with the current price on Tradeorg the coin is not interesting niether for mining niether for further investment, it is already half price from what I bought it ((((

IonicTong,is purk team planing to add purk to any big exchange?

Hi Newton90, most big exchanges, want big listing fees. We have an exchange fund at https://donate.purkproject.com where we are trying to raise funds to get listed on bigger exchanges - we're about 15% of our target so far. We are of course in talks with other exchanges, but everything is under NDA and I can't currently disclose that information unfortunately.

Can someone explain me how estimated emission works.

Because from block 0 to block 960 - 81294.16 purks so that is 84.7 purks
and than from block 960 to block 6720 - 568275.46 purks so that is =568275.46/ (6720-960) = 98.65 purks and in the first post it says reward decreases.

I dont really understand that can someone explain me?

Absolute BS. Did you think that the website load is possibly from all of the animation that is on the page and your low spec PC??? This is complete rubbish and anyone can openly check our source code if they believe this to be the case....

And also SCAM of what? We had no ICO, No Pre-mine, Instamine - nothing. Move on TROLL.

If you have a Pentium it's not dev's fault.

Guys, just f..k off. You are scammers.

[IonicTong]

If you want to be helpful to readers, back up your claims with FACTS then maybe people would start to take you seriously.

Right now, you're just making accusations with absolutely no proof and making yourself look foolish.

[Sharpeich]

IonicTong, what is the plan of dev team concerning the exchange rates of PURK ? what is on your opinion the rate will be in 1 month?

Hi Sharpeich. This is not in our control. We can only develop the software according to our roadmap and marketing plans. It's up to the traders to buy or sell at the price they see fit.

You can use OTC on Discord but its use at your own risk at this time until we begin exchange applications come end of May

Regarding plans, of course there are plans, but we are in talks with a number of exchanges atm. Also larger exchanges require larger listing fees. Something we're working on as a community at https://donate.purkproject.com

[IonicTong]

I agree, but we need to start somewhere. In the mean time, please vote for PURK on Shardax - Votes have been reset and we have until August 1st to win this round and qualify for a free listing:

Yes, same thing. You can check your task manager when you have the website open (40% cpu load). When you close the website tab (not the entire browser), the cpu load gets back to 1-3%.

[block41]

as I understand it, you will not be selling tokens, right? when your token will be traded on exchanges? unfortunately, I did not see this information in the roadmap

[IonicTong]

Yes correct on "some" PC's this is the case and it all depends on your CPU. Note - there is lots of animation on the page which puts a strain on low spec CPU's - but you can check our source code - there is nothing to be suspicious about. It would be completely insane to have something negative on our website that we are using to promote our own cryptocurrency. Come on people, lets put this to bed. It's a ridiculous claim and has already been checked and verified by a previous poster.

[IonicTong]

That's right, we are not selling tokens. Purk is a mineable coin, not token. We are already listed on 2 exchanges:

https://tradeogre.com/exchange/BTC-PURK

[Sharpeich]

all exchanges closed wallets "for maintenance" without any notice. what is happening?

[IonicTong]

all exchanges closed wallets "for maintenance" without any notice. what is happening?

Sharpeich - all CryptoNote coins were temporarily put in to maintenance on all exchanges due to a double counting bug in CryptoNote code - https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/3985. Purk is not affected by this. We are currently recreating the exploit to prove this and will tweet the results to TradeOgre and Altex shortly.

[IonicTong]

Recently a lot of exchanges took CryptoNote wallets offline due to a double counting bug found in CryptoNote code. We were aware that PURK would not be affected by this bug, but for transparency reasons we created this post so our users know that they‘re PURK is safe and business can continue as usual.

https://medium.com/@purkproject/purk-wallets-are-not-affected-by-double-counting-bug-in-cryptonote-code-edd8253d6079

We have contacted TradeOgre and Altex and are waiting for confirmation that we can be reactivated shortly.

Both of these exchanges should disable deposits and withdrawals before all bugs fixed to avoid customer losses, network congestions, and abundant support tickets.

This is exactly what both exchanges did. PURK was mistakenly deactivated, it's only coins that are forked from Monero that have this bug - please read the report on Medium.

Altex have already reactivated PURK just waiting on TradeOgre.

historical minimum on exchange, mining do not earn even the socket. hope team will finally pay some attention to it and promote the coin better. I bought it at 0,1$ price when it was jumping 0,08-1,15. The better way to loose all investors is making nothing to keep exchange rates comfortable. as for the moment it goes exact the same way as 300+ other shitcoins with excellent ideas

[IonicTong]

Hi Sharpeich please tell me what we can do other than what we are doing now? We are developers, we continue to develop each month, every month. We also market the coin each month with an available PR fund. YOU are the traders, not the devs, we can only do what we are doing, Traders do what they are doing and in effect, set the prices... There is absolutely no way of making exchange rates "comfortable" - if it were that easy - everyone and his dog would be doing it.

Also, before investing, did you take note the fact that Purk didnt have an ICO, pre-mine or funding stage? We pay for marketing and development as we go from the emission model and community donations. For people to think we would have HUGE budgets to throw at advertising campaigns at such an early stage - I would suggest need to do their due diligence a little more. It's also very unrealistic to think that the minute you invest in a currency that it will immediately make you money overnight or even in the space of a couple of weeks. Things will take time, IF it goes that way - we make no promises, all we can do is stick to our roadmap items, market with any available funds and progress the development of the coin - Rome wasn't built in a day...

If this model is not for you, I kindly suggest you move on. Negativity breeds negativity and quite honestly, we don't need that here.

[Matty96]

One month and the price dropped from 2400 sats to 240. This is definitely not a good thing for PURK.
I just want to have some words for all holders and anyone who is still having purk coins.

If you guys follow the project and their Discord, they are still working very hard on marketing ideas and developing the business. Please DONT FREAK OUT, and hold on tight.
As one of the devs say, they can only work on coding and business, they can't control the price. Traders buy and sell and make the price go the way they want. However, as soon as, people realize the progress of the project. The price will reveal the value of the project.

Purk is an open source, private and untraceable cryptocurrency that monetises your content and provides almost instant, worldwide privacy protected payments with minimal transaction fees. Based on Boolberry & CryptoNote technology, Purk helps balance CPU, GPU and ASIC mining speeds, which encourages fair and equal distribution whilst providing extremely fast block verification times.

Purk was created to help content owners and service providers monetise their website or application by accepting quick and easy micropayments from their users or customers. Website users can send Purk to a content owner or service provider to show appreciation for their hard work. By sending micropayments as a tip, it highly reduces the amount of monetisation that is needed on a website. Instead of using intrusive adverts, affiliate links, pop ups and sponsored posts, website owners can install the Purk Button and accept quick and easy payments to monetise their content or service instead. Not only does this reduce the amount of promotional clutter on a website, it also reduces costs on content writing and saves time by allowing your customers to tip/pay your writers or employees directly.

Note: The Wild Keccak algorithm was designed for resistance against ASICs (and to "some" extent GPUs). AMD miners will have a better experience mining Purk using the OpenCL miner. Whilst Nvidia mining is still highly profitable, an optimised CUDA miner is still yet to be released making hashrate reductions and light instability very probable.

Roadmap

2018-2019

• Purk Button
  
  
  • An open source button that gives publishers the ability to monetise their content, website or application and allows users to send Purk as a gratuity or tip in a couple of clicks.
  
  
• Exchange Listings
  
  
  • Applications will begin for Purk to start trading on the exchanges. Exchange listings will be taken in to careful consideration before applying, based on trust, platform software, security and cost. This is a long, drawn-out process and will be an ongoing task until we reach our target.
  
  
• Launch Public API
  
  
  • Currently we track the donation wallet address, button creation date, website URL and the amount of donations that have been received for each Purk Button that is generated. Once this phase is complete we will be able to receive donation totals in PURK (opt-in), impressions (opt-in), tx hash, donor wallet address variance and user button interaction. We will be publishing the PURK Button API and allowing websites and blockchain based applications to integrate using an API key. Documentation website to be developed and published also.
  
  
• Automatic Wallet Consolidation
  
  
  • Since launch we have already implemented a manual consolidation command in Simplewallet to deal with small input payments and eliminate dust from a wallet. We propose to develop new functionality that allows wallet users to auto-consolidate incoming transfers in command line and GUI wallet.
  
  
• Wallet RPC API
  
  
  • Whilst the current Simplewallet RPC API can be used for integration, we would like to provide exchanges a secondary option to integrate Purk with their application. The Wallet RPC API will have 20 new RPC methods which use the latest CryptoNote protocol. Current Simplewallet RPC API will stay in-tact.
  
  
• Alias Registration
  
  
  • We intend to improve the current alias registration system by allowing users to associate an alias ID directly from the GUI wallet or command line wallet when you make a transfer – as opposed to when you solo mine a block.
  
  
• LMDB Development
  
  
  • Currently system requirements need a minimum of 8GB RAM to use the Purk client. We will be integrating LMDB (lightning memory mapped database) which will improve blockchain synchronisation speed and allow lower spec PC’s and applications with limited resources to integrate Purk with ease.
  
  
• Donations Platform
  
  
  • As a fully decentralised cryptocurrency, development updates should not be decided by a single, central authority. To ensure the natural progression of Purk we will start development on a donations and fundraising platform, where a community of Purk supporters, donee’s and donors can vote on development updates, advertising proposals and PR for Purk alongside other donation based projects that are listed by the community. Development will start in Q4:2018 and we expect to launch Q2:2019.
  
  
• Instant Encrypted Messages

• Redesign Wallet GUI
  
  
  • Complete redesign and development of the wallet GUI. Additional wallet features to be implemented from previous roadmap items such as encrypted messages and optional traceable transfers.

You can see the complete roadmap on our website or at Trello.


Team

The Purk Project utilises a contractor model that allows for new individuals, groups and companies to contribute to the Purk Project. Currently, Purk consists of a small number of contributing members who work on the project:

It's funny that once a see the word TIP, I instantly think of ADULT cams, you know the ones
I did not read the thread yet, but, tell me, can I use the Purk technology in order to tip some fine women/performers?
This is a serious question, so don't laugh!

There aren't any limitations where a Purk Button can be installed - if a user wanted to tip performers this wouldn't be an issue.

Yes it works, sounds like you have a corrupt blockchain. Please do the following:

You will need to remove the old /purk/ folder which saves the blockchain. You can do this by opening the CLI as administrator:

Windows

RD /S /Q "C:\Users\YourUser\appdata\roaming\purk"

Mac

sudo rm -r /Users/YourUser/Library/Application\ Support/purk

Linux

sudo rm -rf /home/ubuntu/.purk

Now relaunch the wallet and resync the entire blockchain - this should fix the issue.

Ensure you "close wallet" in GUI, or exit, save and refresh if using Simplewallet...

I met PURK in early April and finally get a chance to get some before September! I don't know for sure, but something tells me that good things can happen until then, at least the mining reward will be reduced and we will have less than 15 million PURK in circulating, this in itself will guarantee a valuation and motivation to hold this coin.

I just uploaded Purk v.1.0.4 binaries to Github

We've added some new features to the GUI Wallet and made some general improvements throughout the Purk core.

- Resync Blockchain: A button from the "Connections" page to resync the blockchain if wallet was not closed down correctly and has saved a corrupt blockchain.bin
- Reconnect to peers: A reconnect button to reconnect to peers in case of an internet disconnection whilst the wallet is open.
- Restore from seed: Now you can restore your wallet from seed phrase in the GUI
- Console error improvements: Minor improvements to console errors using correct English terminology, spelling and grammar from previous forked code.
- Renamed qt-purk to Purk

Please backup your wallets and update the software to v1.0.4

I think you should adjust the ann thread to be a bit more transparently.
You should emphasize that this one is optional or mandatory upgrade for community.

Hi Buzhou look around at many other coins - you're in a bear market. Development is continuing as usual - there is nothing we can do about the price of PURK but continue to do what we are doing...

I just uploaded Purk v.1.0.6 binaries to Github

We've added some new features to the GUI Wallet ready for the Purk API and have made strides in completing in another roadmap item.

- Added 3 new consolidation methods to the Wallet RPC API - sum_inputs, get_consolidation_details and consolidate_inputs. More info on these at https://github.com/purkproject/purk/wiki/Simplewallet-JSON-RPC-API
- Removed website field from Purk Button form - now the Purk Button can be embedded anywhere, website URLs are still tracked by the API itself.
- Added "Minimum donation amount" to the Purk Button form in GUI, now you can specify the lowest donation amount you are willing to accept.
- Added "Enable statistics tracking" to the Purk Button form in GUI, this lets us know whether you want your button statistics to be public or not.
- Improved console error logs in core_rpc_server

Please update your wallets to Purk v1.0.6

https://github.com/purkproject/purk/releases/tag/v1.0.6

Look out for another update very soon about the Purk API launch!!

Pork is forbidden for consumption at g20 summit. PURK? Do we need that? I would expect deviations in the mood of a person patronizing PURK foundation because of dissimilarities between their current state of mind and the trail of thought they used to have when they were sane. What could go wrong now given that PURK gives u no guarantees, only disappointment and is the product of effete mentality of whoever spawned it. Pork.

We've just launched the Purk Button API.



Developers can now create websites and applications that are fully integrated with the Purk donations system.

Here's what we've done:

- Added minimum fee, mixin, payment ID and unlock time to the donations modal.
- Implemented Get Stats - Get all the stats (payments, activities and locations) about a button, by using its API key
- Implemented Get Payments - Get all the payments of a button, by using its API key including date filtering, tx hash, amount, payment ID donations count and totals.
- Implemented Get Activities - Get all the activities (views/clicks) regarding a button, by using its API key
- Implemented Get Locations - Get all the locations (webpages) a button was seen in, by using its API key
- Implemented Get Location Payments - Get all the payments (donations) made to a button on a given location, by using the button's API key and the location's ID
- Implemented Get Location Activities - Get all the activities (views/clicks) of a button on a given location, by using the button's API key and the location's ID
- Allowed for unlimited button creation per wallet address distinguished by API Key.
- Enabled statistics tracking the GUI wallet
- Enabled minimum donation amount in the GUI wallet
- Launched the API website at <https://api.purkproject.com>
- Updated our donations page to showcase the Purk Button API in action

All previously generated Purk Buttons will stay in-tact, however, these buttons won't be available for statistics tracking.

You can find more information/documentation on how to use the Purk API at https://api.purkproject.com

You can also see an example of the Purk Button API in action on our new donations page https://donate.purkproject.com - now your donations and totals update immediately. Feel free to test it out!

Look out for a development update on Medium over the upcoming days which will go in to everything in a lot more detail.

Enjoy : D

good to see devs delivering, this may show up when the market turns.

[Raizou]

PURK is coming close to block 176640, in fact it may take another 1 or 2 months to happen! This situation will be interesting because we will have a small natural appreciation in its price and soon several websites will have their PURK button... It's a matter of weeks for a quick adoption and understanding that PURK is the monetization of hardworkers and a backup source of value.

[Tansmorph]

The potential is very huge of Purk. The only thing is, the devs have to deliver there promissed stuff and also it is not easy to bring the button on all the websites in the www.

but for some weird reason its pumping now.
it seems tradeorge always some some shitcoin pumping each day for no reason.
must be a group that does it. PM ME! i want in!

[IonicTong]

Not dead at all. Devs have been planning for a while for next phase. We just had a round of funding and development has started on the next road map item.

When you cant access the website, access the explorer and the devs have stated that Purk is dead - then there is cause for concern. Until that day - which won't be happening on my watch take it that devs are just busy living their normal life and don't necessarily have time to be logging in to Discord or Telegram all day.

It's all good people - have faith.

@everyone
Tradeogre coinswap... Saronite Purk..
Greetings
What coin are we merging with: PURK
What will the swap ratio be: Saronite 1:1 Purk 2:1 (This values are made because of the circulating supply and also the current price value)
What algorithm: We will stick to a Cryptonote algorithm that's well supported and it may move to another algorithm in the near future
Will service nodes still be available: Yes, service nodes and proof of work will still be available. The Saronite dev fee will be removed and there is no premine except for the initial swap
Max supply: 100 mil
Block Time: 2 Minutes
Number of developers: 3 with a 4th joining soon
The name of both coins will fade away and become one coin and one community.

[IonicTong]

IMPORTANT: Send your PURK to TradeOgre by the 14th April

Hey. I apologize for my bad English, I am writing through a translator. Question to the developers, I only learned on April 15th about combining PURK and Saronite and creating a new coin xtendcash. I have a lot of PURK coins left in my local wallet. What will happen to these coins now? Will there be an opportunity to bring them to the exchange and sell? And does the 2:1 exchange PURK coins kept by people on a local wallet spread to xtnc coins?
