Gridcoin (GRC) - first coin utilizing BOINC - Official Thread

[alicea]

Thank you but:

The network owe you about 45 GRC. But you wont get PoR reward until your RAC amount will be > 50.
Your magnitude is very low. Do you use CPU or GPU for your projects? The ADP will be defined a bit later as soon network gathers statistics about your CPID.

CPU. I've said: I use 3 or 4 of them depending on day. And the work 24/7. That's why this situation is curious!!

Something wrong with your email. I believe you need wait for complete statistic for this project.  

Nothing is wrong, believe me! Complete statistics? I'm a member of gridcoin for 3 months with this email and username.

Your magnitude at the moment for this project is 55. The general magnitude is 55/77*33=24. Assuming current multiplier 2, you will receive about 50 GRC per day.  But you need time to understand how much you can get. Look on your Boinc statistic - i.e. RAC

3 (or 4) depending on day CPUs. It's enough (especially the GPU projects are rare and unknown). What power should be given? SHould I put 10 or 20 CPUs? I'd like to see the proportion.

50 GRC a day? OK! When I'll see it in mywallet?

It seems the main issues were fixed 3 days ago. I have about 500 GRC per day.

Congratulations! I've got zero. Something is not OK with this reward system. What computing power you have, and what computing power I have? I have >0 and blocks = 0!! Is this coin going to kill useful computations or it has major bugs? Or you are talking rubbish, or what's going on??

Finally I don't ask "how much a day". I will calculate it myself. I'd like the first PoR block (because of my contribution for some weeks) at any value to have comparison with those satoshi values PoS blocks, that I shouldn't have mined but I have mined!!

Clear rules, devs, please! I know it's not popular, but please!

If you don't like the way Gridcoin works you are welcome to go mine something else!

One GRC's supporter has gone away a week ago, because of lack of support. I am the next, who go away because of lack of fair rules and profitability.
You thought that the people would use their electricity and have nothing from it?! Not "a bit" but really nothing?!

CPU. I've said: I use 3 or 4 of them depending on day. And the work 24/7. That's why this situation is curious!!

So you don't have GPU at all? In this case why do you work on GPU (poem) project? With CPU only you never achieve the good results working on mixed GPU projects.     
Instead you need choose only the CPU projects from the projects white list  http://www.gridcoin.us/Guides/BOINC/whitelist.htm

Hm. Under CPU do you mean a single CPU with multiple cores or it is absolutely different machines?  If it is different machines check the value "cross_project_id" in the file C:\ProgramData\BOINC\client_state.xml on each PC. You might be use different CPIDs in your Boinc configuration. It's should be 845b58605ff3f10eb207a32db69cd6c6
If it is different that is the reason why do you have so low magnitude. You need synchronize CPIDs on each machine.
 

50 GRC a day? OK! When I'll see it in mywallet?

You receive your payment soon after the "Owed" value will be > 50

For many people the rules are working very well. Every day people receive thousands GRC. You can see all day rewards using the command "listitem magnitude".
Read this article http://wiki.gridcoin.us/Proof-of-Research for understanding rules.

I am not developer. I am just a user

I think that calculator uses wrong BTC/GRC: that's the change for the old GRC, each of which converts to 10 research GRCs, so the BTC/GRC change should be divided by ten.

I noticed you have also posted in the cryptocointalk forum. Please wait for an answer there. They will probably need some more info though.

I understand your frustration. Hope it will be sorted soon

Thanks! My wallet is synced now.

It is connected with BOINC, it shows the correct project, I have 100 GRC in the wallet ... so everything should be fine :-)

You wrote in an other comment that you get get the GRC not before they sytem owes you 50 GRC.
Where can I see how much it owes me?
Do I have to do something or I just have to wait.

PS: my RACs are between 250 and 450 for each project I have selected

since days my wallet is not syncing... what can I do

in the debug log there is hundreds of times:

"received block 89f47350a922f5295be3
11/03/14 10:23:19 ProcessBlock: ORPHAN BLOCK, prev=a476c8025484c2d35803"

...is this correct?

Try the following steps.

1) Take your very important wallet.dat and either rename it or move to a different folder (don't lose it whatever you do).
2) Delete everything else in C:\Users\******\AppData\Roaming\GridcoinResearch (where your wallet.dat is) except "gridcoinresearch.conf", "walletbackups" folder and your wallet.dat (which will be moved or renamed at this point).
3) Restart and let the blockchain download and you wallet sync (you won't have any coins since you real wallet isn't loaded).
4) Once synced with block explorer, shut it down and replace the wallet.dat with your original wallet.dat.

Best Regards,
Vlad

I think its "listitem cpids" or "listitem validcpids"

Tradermann was so kind to sent 100 GRC to my wallet.
After the reloading of the blockchain the are not any more in my wallet. (I saved the wallet.dat and copied it back)
the 100 GRC are listed in the transaktion and the have 9940 confirmations but the are not in the wallet and thats why it is not staking.
Somebody knows what to do?
Thanks!

Just type the command "listitem mymagnitude"

Owed is the amount network owe you.

try running the client with "-rescan" or run the console command "repairwallet".

[meyer]

Thanks it worked!
It is said that in approximately 1 day I will get my reward- so everything should be fine now

Thank you all!
You guys are great... I never experienced a forum with such a lot of helpfull members!

Another day another record for Gridcoin! 2014-11-04 ---> 24,999,894 points!

I just found out there is a subreddit dedicated to Boinc, I posted there, feel free to Upvote! http://www.reddit.com/r/BOINC/comments/2laaqg/team_gridcoin_has_its_best_boinc_day_24999894/

[zulzedd]

I am getting about 1-2 per day with a fairly sizable balance, the rest is interest payments. Lots of little payments!

More or less how many PoR blocks do you find in 24 hours? since now i haven't found one single block

I, for example, have zero payments since 31.10.2014. I asked for help here and at cryptocointalk for 2 weeks. And i still have that problems.

But before 31.10.2014 did you have any PoR rewards?

[traderman]

Which version are you running? can you post a screen of your wallet, just black out the important stuff!

O my gosh... Everything were correct. Except single stupid thing - my email was in quotes  >_<. Just deleted them, restarted wallet and now everything looks nice.
Anyway screenshot of my wallet status, just in case. Earliers there was "Project: INVESTOR", "Status: all projects exhausted" and zero magnitude.

Yeap. Two of them. At same time i had "Wrong CPID" errors. I don't know how did i get this rewards.
This is all my transactions list:




Now everything is fixed, i hope.
