Yes, there is some moving ^^

Why this forum is very quiet ?
and, it is hard to find any updates from development team of this coin,

The new kind of hardware for? It does not know how to effect the price worth it

To the miner at 0x0a (http://fairquark.p2p.0x0a.nl:8372) with address qVeTRsuLbC79GEBrMA8tVgJWvzNY8dodit, please double-check your miner configurations to verify that they're all mining for quark. Receiving a lot of incompatible hashes each second :/

The bigest problem of this coin is too much hash by one person,
If the statics is not a bug,

https://cpu-pool.net/frq/index.php?page=statistics&action=pool

One miner put around 1GH/s,
and it is more than 80% of the total hash rate,

 What happened with Poloniex?  And where did the creators of the coin? Have been silent for a week... the Project is abandoned?

I think it's a real bug  !![/b

Since yesterday (just after the stratum pools are re-enabled), I noticed that my hashrate have dramatically drop ! When I check other contributors' hashrate, I can see that i'm not alone in this case. Except for one contributor named 'Anonymous' who get more or less 98% of the hashrate of the pool.

Please fix this issue as soon as possible !

That is happening because the FairQuark QT software has a built in malware that has now been triggered as of Feb24 that directs up to 75% of your hash rate to that anonymous address.

How to check if you are affected:  In windows click START -> Shutdown.  Look to see if you see a FairQuark logo in the top right of your screen that appears for a split second while shutting down.  If you DO NOT see it then you are ok but must leave your computer/mining rig turned off until March4 which is when the infection period ends.

Good luck!

The hashrate does not come from the FairQuark QT software?! What miner are you talking about? Your post does not make sense.

The malware installed by running FairQuarkQT just the once hijacks the submitted data from minerd.exe (any version and location) and sends it to pools as though it was from another user!  It can also lay dormant in eyeballs it has just been reported so until March4 not only must you shut down your FairQuark mining rigs but also not look at any computer screen connected to the internet.  Be safe!

I think that the problem comes from hasrate calculation based on workers difficulty.
Difficulty is incorrect so the hashrate reported is also incorrect..

Please, fix this problem as soon as possible !!

yep,

I agree, they have to fix soon,
or, the guy will get unreasonable share in the pool.

Actually,
I am solo-mining with around 7.6Mh/s,
and, I am finding 2~3 blocks every hour,

Possibly,  8.4 * 60 / 2.5 = 200Mh/s, it is the network hashrate now.

and, at the pool, they found 16 blocks/hour for the last 24 hours, and 11 blocks/hour for the last 60 minutes,
it means, their actual hashrate is around 60~70MH/s,

so, I think, there is a bug to calculate hashrate,
or the guy is using some facked miner and stealing the coin from the others,

[fairglu]

One miner put around 1GH/s, and it is more than 80% of the total hash rate,

It's definitely a bug in that pool and only the pool admin can do something. mkimid did a detailed analysis, but simply looking at the blockchain you can see this pool certainly doesn't get anywhere near 80% of the mined blocks.

Ad interim, you're better off mining on one of the P2Pool nodes (like fairpool's, shameless plug), or solo if you have enough hashrate.

In other news, the difficulty is trending up: http://coinz.co.vu/diff/?frq

The market depth at poloniex also improved, there is now more than 2 BTC worth of buy orders, that's still tiny mind you, but a 4x increase. We also reached 40 satoshi (was predictable given the order book structure), but I don't think that's maintainable for now, especially with the devs quiet. But 30 satoshi is probably fair (ie. we'll certainly dip in the 25-30 range), that gives a total market cap of 40 BTC.

Breaking 50 satoshi won't happen until the next halving IMHO, unless we see some noteworthy developer activity (abe fork on github? vanitygen? paper wallet? website revamp?).

Seems a bit too much like quark...all the good trading is going on in private.  Still I manage to mine my second solo block in the wee hours of the morning so here's to hoping the speed will pick up.

Is everyone still voting to get them listed on more exchanges?

Up. Do not forget to vote. Allcrypt still cannot be confirmed but seems legit (at least they are working with the coin's addition)

P.S. Do not be worry about the change of the incoming FRQ, block reward halved.

I am trying to setup a P2pool server and run_p2pool.py is stuck at:
2014-02-26 16:30:21.899994 Testing bitcoind P2P connection to '127.0.0.1:8008'...

fairquarkd is running fine is listening on port 8008.
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:8008            0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      1404/fairquarkd

I am using the p2pool source from the first post.
Any ideas?

Hi all!

One of the things we devs have been doing lately has been trying to get FRQ listed in bigger exchanges. We've so far made some pre-arrangements considering that.
The need for bigger exchanges comes from the requirement of reliable data of valuation. Also volatility, which bigger exchanges can bring to FairQuark, is needed for certain applications.

We have a lot of bounties to give for service and merchant etc. operators. Catch the 'firsts' while they're still available!

Also remember our IRC channel, #FairQuark at Freenode. Our IRC giveaway will be ending soon.

Thanks for great support, FairQuarkers!

why I can not relpay the giveaway thread？
