how do you defend against attackers who try to DOS by requesting to be part of a joined transaction but then fail to sign off on the transaction? This is the big problem with coinjoin that prevents it from scaling well. have you guys solved it somehow?

There is a penalty for leaving the connection before the darksend completes.

And how does that work?

You put up a collateral transaction that only the current master node can cash to get into the pool. If you misbehave in any way, the master node will cash it. Each time that costs 0.1DRK, so it could add up pretty quick if you're attacking it.

Masternode's are chosen randomly using a deterministic algorithm that can't be tampered with. This has a nice side effect, people will want to run full nodes to get the random fees. So we should have a pretty strong base of nodes.

What does it take to run a full node? Do we need more?

Yes a few pages back Link

And it is just a start. Watch their first fork for DGW.

OK WTF.....can get my p2pool node forked....

Killed darkcoind, did a new git clone, new build, rmed old darkcoind, removed everything in the .darkcoind folder other than the wallet.dat file.

restarted darkcoind, let it sync and its hung up on block 34139 ? 

GIT CLONE was from here: https://github.com/evan82/darkcoin.git

WTF!!

darkcoind getinfo
{
    "version" : 90000,
    "protocolversion" : 70002,
    "walletversion" : 60000,
    "balance" : 0.00000000,
    "blocks" : 34139,
    "timeoffset" : 0,
    "connections" : 2,
    "proxy" : "",
    "difficulty" : 278.98827638,
    "testnet" : false,
    "keypoololdest" : 1394734971,
    "keypoolsize" : 101,
    "paytxfee" : 0.00000000,
    "mininput" : 0.00001000,
    "errors" : ""
}

It should sync up. I only see 2 connections. In fact it might have already 

been like that for about 30 minutes... not syncing...

what prevents masternodes from being dishonest?

Try manually adding a few more nodes. Let me know if it doesn't help and I can get some more.

Code:

addnode=23.23.186.131
addnode=50.16.206.102
addnode=50.19.116.123
addnode=98.165.130.67
addnode=54.242.50.205
addnode=50.17.98.53

don't think its a node issue, as i watched it pull down all the blocks up to 34139 and then it stopped.  this was after i blew away the .darkcoin dir with the block and peer info.

Example now have 5 peers:
drk@cpool:~$ darkcoind getinfo
{
    "version" : 90000,
    "protocolversion" : 70002,
    "walletversion" : 60000,

What's up with Coinmine? The miners I have setup for DRK are continually waiting for work. Losing precious mining time.

PS this addnode=23.23.186.131 node gave me errors in the log so i removed it along a couple otehrs, the list i just posted is my actual conf

OMG  WTF.. is there something wrong with the git hub source ?  I just tried building this on another box and get the same thing.  Stops at 34139 after downloading all the blocks before. this SUCKS my P2Pool Node is down...

how can i be on the wrong fork with the new client

Look at your diff and mine? and are all these other peers FKED also ?

what is DGW? Is there any resources for miners anywhere? Thanks

DGW stand for Dark Gravity Wave, and it's the new solution Evan came up with to replace KGW which compensates for large fluctuations in the mining difficulty due to large farms etc... dropping in to mine while the difficulty is low.  KGW was shown to have some weaknesses that could be exploited.

[N[e]wBie]

is it "better" to mine drk with p2p pool? How can we do this?

[eizh]

What's up with Coinmine? The miners I have setup for DRK are continually waiting for work. Losing precious mining time.

It has a backup stratum. Set up a failover.

[sippsnapp]

is it "better" to mine drk with p2p pool? How can we do this?

Its "better" as for decentralization. However, you have to be 24 hours on a P2P node to get full P2P payout as im aware.

To connect to a P2P node just enter the node connection details and your username what is your wallet address, password can be anything, mining profits will be credited to the mining address which is you username.

For example:

Code:

-o stratum+tcp://node-url-or-ip-here:3333 -u yourwalletaddress -p anything 

For my node to mine with address

XcVaHCgmfQpSvVSnG1C34cmMELkZiU1en1

enter:

Code:

-o stratum+tcp://62.141.39.175:7903 -u XcVaHCgmfQpSvVSnG1C34cmMELkZiU1en1 -p x

Hope that helps.

Try stopping the daemon, deleting ~/.darkcoin/chainstate, blocks  and restarting.
