It will be blissful if he refuses to address my question about the security flaw in his coin, as described in his summary.

Then it means you get to find out later and lose a lot of money, time, and effort. Perfect.

The "cover my eyes and pretend no problems exist" makes this look more and more like the monkey coin.

Even if.. It would be the fattest king monkey of all other baby monkey coins

anyone minig on a HD6970 with 2Gb of DDR5?
What kind of numbers are you geting?

In other news just about to hit the 50 DRK # in my wallet... feeling great...

Any thing deterministic violates the Byzantine General's solution of proof-of-work and can be defrauded. What will happen is the fraudsters will game this deterministic selection to put themselves in control. Understand that the fundamental genius of Satoshi's invention is that nothing can be known about the next block winner a priori. I explained in great detail why all non-PoW systems, e.g. proof-of-stake, are thus not secure. If you introduce determinism (e.g. a pseudorandom number generator is controlled by whom ever controls the initial seed) then you've lost that key attribute of PoW w.r.t. to your use in controlling the denial-of-service of enjoining transactions in the CoinJoin algorithm.

Ah, you're replying to something completely 100% different than what I said. I suppose it's super complicated. How about this, I'll write the code for this into DarkSend in the next few days. We'll do a public beta test on testnet and you can try to break it. I'll document it and make flow charts and everything so you can see how it works.

I appreciate Anonymint's commentary, though I disagree with his assessment. What I look forward to the most is Eduf's response. The "pounce on the detractor with hate" is more akin to a political faction's response than a math project... I've experienced a bit of that myself... ;-)

Tutorial for mining darkcoin on ubuntu 13.10 using ATI/AMD GPUs

After installing Ubuntu 13.10, download and install the latest AMD driver. Then enter the following at the terminal:

Code:

sudo apt-get install build-essential git libcurl4-gnutls-dev ncurses-dev git autoconf libtool curl libncurses-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev -y

download linux opencl driver:
http://developer.amd.com/tools-and-sdks/heterogeneous-computing/amd-accelerated-parallel-processing-app-sdk/downloads/
(scroll down to AMD-APP-SDK-v2.9-lnx64.tgz

cd ~/Downloads
tar -xvf AMD-APP-SDK-v2.9-lnx64.tgz
./Install-AMD-APP.sh

download the ADL SDK: 
http://developer.amd.com/tools-and-sdks/graphics-development/display-library-adl-sdk/
cd ~/Downloads/
mkdir adl
mv ADL_SDK_6.0.zip adl
cd adl
unzip ADL_SDK_6.0.zip 
cp include/*.h ~/sph-sgminer/ADL_SDK
[reboot]

cd ~
git clone  https://github.com/prettyhatemachine/sph-sgminer.git
cd sph-sgminer/
autoreconf -i
CFLAGS="-O2 -Wall -march=native"
./configure
make
./sgminer -k darkcoin -o stratum+tcp://yourpool.com:1234 -u username -p password -I 18 -w 128 --thread-concurrency 12800 -g 1

Hi mate, I returned my graphics card, I bought A Radeon 6670, installed in along with the drivers. I tried to follow your commands but I get an error message saying: cp: cannot stat ‘include/*.h’: No such file or directory

Any idea what's wrong?

[tifozi]

Did you download the ADL SDK?

Did you extract the 3 header files and place them in ADL_SDK ?

Code:

-r--r--r-- 1 miner miner   950 Feb 23 02:39 adl_sdk.h
-r--r--r-- 1 miner miner 68766 Feb 23 02:39 adl_defines.h
-r--r--r-- 1 miner miner 87727 Feb 23 02:39 adl_structures.h

Are the expected DRK/Day on http://pool.darkcoin.io true? That means with 8,5 Mh im making ~16 DRK a day, which is 0.025 BTC?

[tifozi]

At the current difficulty, yes ~16 DRK is correct for 8.5 MH/s

For this coin - perhaps more than any other out there right now, given its intended purpose -criticism is more than welcome.  His is frankly exceptional and the best I've seen thus far in this thread.

Having said that...  In fairness to those attacking AnonyMint, offering unequivocal dismissal in the same breath as plugging one's own alternative (or, at least, plugging the fact that he is working on an alternative) seriously smacks of douchebaggery, and he should have expected to be called out on it.

Finally finished all pages on http://wiki.darkcoin.fr.
Will try to polish everything in the coming days and some other surprises.

In other news: I am eager to test Darksend.

DarkSend BETA v1 begins NOW!

http://www.darkcoin.io/downloads/DarkSendDocumentation.pdf


There aren't many nodes running BETA on the network and it takes a few seconds for it to find one to get the state from. Run "getpoolinfo" in the console, when the session_id changes from 1001 you can use DarkSend.

No I hadn't, but I have now, and I managed to get it running (sort of)

When I started sgminer i got the following errors:

20:19:44] Started sgminer 4.1.0-85-gccc7d

Any Ideas?

what TC are you using for the card? The 6670 is not very productive when it comes to hashing.

Try this as a starting point  -I 19 -g 3 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 2400 in your darkminer config file

Add this to the shell script you are using for the sgminer startup

Code:

#!/bin/bash
export GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT=100
export GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS=1
export DISPLAY=:0
./sgminer -c /path/to/darkminer.conf
