[ANN] Ethereum: Welcome to the Beginning

Hello

guys please say peers for mining

Thank you

GETH QUESTION--

I started Geth with the supplied Windows batch file.  How long does it take to download the blockchain?  How can I tell when the blockchain is completely in place?

I am assuming that the blockchain is still downloading, the console window has text streaming by.

If there is a web document with information, please point me in the right direction.  I'd like to set-up and mine ETH, but the blockchain needs to be in place.  I have been running Geth close to 18 hours now.

Any help is appreciated.       --scryptr

If your running Geth and its up to the latest block, ( check the block chain ) then edit the bat file as shown on this site, hope that helps.

On win7, starting geth.exe just runs indefinitely.  How long does it take to finish? Or am I running the wrong file, because it sure isn't an installer. I'm following this guide, step 1:

it's supposed to run indefinitely, just check if the block height match with this site, then start the miner in another window...
eg:

Code:

I0815 18:57:59.536459   26601 chain_manager.go:662] imported 0 block(s) (0 queued 1 ignored) including 0 txs in 3.499575ms. #91572 [9de4e3fb / 9de4e3fb]

the block height is the number after the # symbol (91572)

Ah I forgot about keeping the system up 24/7. Gotta set up my aws/Google vm again -_-

Thank you for the help!

Attention, trade volume on Poloniex is wrong whatever the reason might be. I'm trading on that exchange for years and graphs were always correct but now with ETH there is a major problem with 1-day chart, it is showing much lower daily trade volume than listed on the right, at coins list.

It looks like the 1-day chart stopped updating a day or two ago. It only goes up to the 13th, and now it's the 15th.

If you sum the 6 4-hour volumes for Aug 12th, you get:

  >>> 752.67 + 270.43 + 667.30 + 1381.6 + 805.87 + 812.13
  4690.0

which agrees with the daily total for Aug 12th.

But if you do the same for Aug 13th, you get:

  >>> 628.65 + 313.57 + 550.27 + 1234.3 + 3324.8 + 2140.9
  8192.49

but the daily chart only shows 3691.8 BTC. And it shows nothing at all for the 14th or 15th.

Looks to me like it stopped counting somewhere between the 4th and 5th 4-bar period:

  >>> 628.65 + 313.57 + 550.27 + 1234.3
  2726.79

  >>> 628.65 + 313.57 + 550.27 + 1234.3 + 3324.8
  6051.59

ie. at between 4pm and 8pm server time on the 13th. That was the busiest 4-hour period so far, and around the time when the site appeared to be DDoS'ed offline.

If I had to guess, I would say that the 1-day chart is wrong, and the 24-hour trade volume is right.

Edit: I just reported this error in the poloniex trollbox. Less than a minute later, it was fixed.

You are wrong.

Top-right bar show last 24 hours.

The graph 1-day shows since 12:00 AM.


Then if there is 15 august 18:00 PM, Top-right bar shows volume since 18:00 14 august to 18:00 15 august
But at same time your 1day graph is showing volume from 00:00 01:00............... 17:00 18:00.

There is less hours showed, and thats the reason. Nothing related to a conspiracy about volume 


Do the same screenshoot with mspaint, but at 23:59 and you will get surprised 

Attention, trade volume on Poloniex is wrong whatever the reason might be. I'm trading on that exchange for years and graphs were always correct but now with ETH there is a major problem with 1-day chart, it is showing much lower daily trade volume than listed on the right, at coins list. Do not asume that graph is wrong (it was never wrong before) but the oppossite (coins list value is wrong) and do not be fooled by big numbers shown elsewhere. Poloniex moderators were informed of problem multiple times but didn't reacted, it obviously suits Poloniex to continue luring the naive into buying based on inflated trade volume.

If buying, keep in mind ETH costed just around 55k Satoshi not so long ago (at ICO). IMO the chance for a major dump is really high, the only question now is who will start dumping first (whales?).

Maybe read my post 2 up from yours.

There was a bug at poloniex with their 1-day chart. I reported it. They fixed it.

[superresistant]

... THIS IS MY LAST WARNING ....

Can you really really promise that this is your last warning?

INCOMING: $3 USD WITHIN THE NEXT 72 HOURS!

I realise that probably represents a whole week's pocket money for you, but I seriously doubt an extra $3 is going to have much impact on the price.

Priceless... I love bitcointalk.

Prices below 0.01 is something even better than what we can call "opportunity"... this coin has the potential to reach number 2 on coinmarketcap easily.
comparing it to actual number 2 and 3 let's see:

Number 2 is Ripple..

Not much to say about this... new and good protocol but all the features get down because it's just a simple PREMINE (ripple team starting having 99% of all coins), this new age of internet must be focused on decentralization not just adapting the out of date corporations like banks to its internet form.

And number 3 is Litecoin..

Less to say about this one: It's just a copy clone of bitcoin currently pumped only by the Chinese market until once they can realize it offers really nothing vs Bitcoin.. and even less vs Ethereum.


So i'm just giving some advice for the people that maybe still don't know what Ethereum Is and will Be.

I also finished the first draft of ICAP, the Ethereum Inter-exchange Client Address Protocol, an IBAN-compatible system for referencing and transacting to client accounts aimed to streamline the process of transfering funds, worry-free between exchanges and, ultimately, make KYC and AML pains a thing of the past. The IBAN compatibility may even provide possibility of easy integration with existing banking infrastructure in some future.

IBAN is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Bank_Account_Number

Prices below 0.01 is something even better than what we can call "opportunity"... this coin has the potential to reach number 2 on coinmarketcap easily.
 

The real success of ethereum doesn't have to go in line with market cap or price/ETH, as it was designed to act as functional token (fuel) not to be just a speculative investment or store of value (infinite supply).

Yes, it could easily get to 2nd place on CMC, but I don't think it will be any time soon. The pre-sale price/ether was only around $0.31 or BTC0.0005, so it's reasonable to assume that people who bought in then are waiting for the right time to dump (at least partially) to get their ROI (and possibly many of them may not yet know that you can already trade ETH).

And don't forget the supply will double in the next year and miners will be dumping too.
