[ANN] Snowblossom - new ASIC resist POW, quantum resistant, online now ❁

[Kula]

Can someone help me? I downloaded 4 files ( from cricket to padu ) to snow directory. I have problems starting mining   

Code:

INFO: Work block load error: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to select a field 4 but snowfall is working on it
Jun 06, 2018 8:07:08 PM snowblossom.lib.SnowFall <init>
INFO: Generating snow field at 94.75 writes per second.  Estimated total runtime is 86.07 hours. 0.00 complete.

Jun 06, 2018 8:07:09 PM snowblossom.miner.SnowBlossomMiner$BlockTemplateEater onNext

now is 4-pudu,  download snowblossom.4 and put it in snow directory, and the miner will go..

guys, please can someone explain to me what is a java miner and how do i get it?  I dont understand how to mine this

The easy way is :

1.download java https://java.com/en/download/
2.reboot
3.download wallet https://snowblossom.org/releases/windows/index.html
4.run node.bat
5.run client.bat
6.run miner.bat

Miner will download snow block. If you don't want to wait, you can download this first  https://snowblossom.org/snowfields/index.html ,and put it in snow dirctory.

The activated_field: 4 pudu https://explorer.snowblossom.org/

or let the miner download. It will take less than an hour.

win10 64位+最新版的java跑起来没问题。。32位没试过。。估计是环境问题？

[tster123]

difficulty is unbelievably high, another coin where devs go "no premine" way and pay a server room or a pal with plenty servers to mine most of it. Ryzen 1600(fast SSD) around 10 days estimate to hit a block.

My gaming machine is estimated to get a block every 5-6 hours.  That seems like pretty low difficulty to me.

Would you mind to share your specs? tster123 such a convincing nickname also your 1st post? Suspicious

intel i7 6700H w/ 64gb RAM.   Pretty standard setup, although with more RAM that most average people. 

I should note that the network hashrate is way up and I'm down to 1 block every 25 hours.

[q5503162]

We are not yet synced, refusing to send block template to miner

[OhHaiAndy]

i7-8700K at 41534/sec says 422 hours per block. Does that seem right for now?

Also is this planned to be CPU only?

I'm having a tough time understanding what the optimal hardware formula is for this project. Seems like RAM plays a big part, but I have a machine with half the RAM outhashing another machine. Is virtual memory applicable? I haven't won a single block and seem pretty confident that I won't at the rate of things... getting the snowfields isn't even an issue for me.

Insight appreciated!

Can you make a video tutorial?

It's more about RAM throughput.  if you can fit the whole snowfield (note: it is now 64gb) into memory, then you are either going to be capped by CPU (probably) or (less likely) memory throughput.  If you can't fit the whole thing in memory then it will (almost assuredly) be capped by throughput to disk.

BTW, there are now some mining pools set up, so you can get some snowblossoms by mining on there without requiring you finding an entire block!

所以下载的未识别等待软件自己下载就好啦。。就是慢一些。当然那个内存选项需要关掉，除非有90G内存。。

hiya folks!
I feel like a late starter already and we're only like a week in!

I'm having issues with node.bat that I haven't seen anyone else ask about.
I've installed Java, rebooted, and I'm running Windows 10.
I replaced the db_type value in node.conf with db_type=lobstack

Here's what I've got when I run node.bat:

What have I missed?

Are there any pools setup?


Also, does it always have to re-write the snowfield when you start the miner? Or am I doing something wrong?

[nadrojcote]

This is one of the best looking projects I've seen lately. Glad I got involved early.

yes if you are mining with mem field it has to load in mem every time. Check out the discord for info on pools in the announcement channel. https://discord.gg/eA24HR
