IMPORTANT:
For maximum performance make sure you have latest drivers  (ver. 398+)
http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx

Will we really see a performance difference with latest drivers? I know the updated miner will make a difference but the drivers?

The only real way you'll know is if you try it out yourself.. Every build is diferent, every card is different.. It's not like you have anything better to do, each 1080ti is making like 75 cents a day profit.. You can almost buy a snickers, Almost.

Someone or some group is attacking RVN currently using a lot of hash (most likely from Nicehash), a coordinated DDoS to the major pools trying to get their network connectivity down while building up a sidechain and trying to replace legit blocks on mainnet with their maliciously mined sidechain blocks causing orphans of the legit blocks on the pools.

Here's a recent reorg of the chain, notice the different timestamps:

Had several TX'es in them - all legit which the attacker managed to replace by his block without any tx'es:

He's using some sort of pool software obviously... The majority of his mined blocks are paying out to this address:  RTd935dCF7hJXR5zBEYxvMkqGDxH4Tko6t

Which already received lots of coins:

https://ravencoin.network/address/RTd935dCF7hJXR5zBEYxvMkqGDxH4Tko6t

The coinbase text says he's using yiimp when converting his blocks from ascii to hex:

Code:

0000002038bdaeb8edf04114cda9211b259142789215272893cd833a91b6000000000000d484ae8133b8ed5fd58d880297c563166d25ef36d084291ce891aec7df3069e5b4ea995b7955021b115b43020102000000010000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000ffffffff1803287a0504a8ea995b08810007851b0300007969696d700000000000010088526a740000001976a914c9380b44b2017b190978ccf5cddbe26edb952fef88ac00000000

Gives "yiimp" as coinbase text when entering here: https://www.rapidtables.com/convert/number/hex-to-ascii.html

It could also be "just" a malicious pool as well then...


Will investigate further as I have time.. Be sure not to send lots of coins at the moment (during the attacks) you transactions might get orphaned, the coins won't be lost but you might need to send them again.

why are so many mining guys fucking scum wankers for?

Thanks for shating OCMiner! Any new intel regarding the 51 attack?

WELCOME!!!

oooo this looks juicy


edit: so nicehash has about 500ghs maybe I see 25-50GHS that is over what the >normal< price would be.  Doesnt seem to be nicehash hash attac.  nova is where the hash is at

Juicy and ready for the rise

The asic proof technology of ravencoin really captured the peoples imagination for equality and giving chance to masses who cannot afford to buy expensive asic mining rigs. More power to ravencoin project.

There is no such thing as asic proof. There are already fpgas mining in the background, raven should change the algo soon with a hard fork to prevent fpgas.

[Texacha]

ProgPow maybe?

[Someone_2]

There's another crypto attempting ProgPOW but it remains to be seen how legit they are, or how well it will go.  I'm wondering what's next for RavenCoin.  I'd like to see it grow and further fullfill the philosophies of decentralization.  Asset layer launches and the value and popularity goes up drastically perhaps...?

[ourcoin1]

Raven needs more than just Asic proof algo to rise. The crypto projects have advanced a lot with new ideas and approaches. The competition is strong

[5thangel]

I really like the recent tweet from the @Ravencoin . It is getting some attention

[jtalk]

Since it is in early stages and development is going on by various independent developers as open source project. I will also consider it as experimental coin and picked up a reasonable amount having all this risks involved in mind. I have seen discussion somewhere about risk of 51% attack and after seeing tweet from official handle about it, I think why it was needed to be talked about specifically.

You made a very good point and i agree with you. I am also recently picked up a good amount of RVN, good that it is trading on Bittrex.

[2012]

Dev is slowly slowly increasing the support from exchange demand for this coin is increasing we have very strong community behind. I also like to buy this coin because it will have great future with brilliant idea and very talented team.

[darkdude]

Been mining this coin off SINCE Feb(ish) and on and HODLing everyone I mine (I missed the early sweetspot of mining this coin back at ANN with ultra low diff).  Regardless with approx 60k of RVN in my pocket, I am confident this coin is going places.  Cant wait for mainnet to come online in late Oct

[GamEth]

Can't wait to see where this project is heading...

Question: My windows QT wallet is 5 days behind on 2 seperate computers. Tired just updating one to the most recent release but it still just says "unknown syncing headers(33947).  Any suggestions?   Thanks.

Update: got it working, says Asset Activation 10/18/2018?
