[ANN][RIC] Riecoin: constellations POW *CPU* HARD FORK successful, world record

[ziiip]

Why this great coin doesn't have just one normal exchange where it is work?? Polo disabled it and no one knows why...
Without exhange it is vain to mine this coin...

BTC38 works well, just tested yesterday.

[goodminer]

I can't see ric/btc option on this btc38 exchange nowhere??

There's not - their base trading currency is CNY.  You have to go RIC -> CNY -> other cryptocurrency of choice.

(CNY, of course, being Chinese Yuan.)

http://www.btc38.com/trade_en.html?btc38_trade_coin_name=ric

I did a test trade earlier this week of RIC -> CNY -> LTC and LTC -> CNY -> RIC and it worked like a charm.  I assume BTC is also working -- they've removed the delay warning.

Any info about this wallet address? https://chainz.cryptoid.info/ric/address.dws?236277.htm

the cold wallet of btc38.com,maybe

hi all !!

is there a link to download the blockchain data cause the wallet takes forever to sync?

i've added 10 nodes that's i found in https://chainz.cryptoid.info/ric/#!network from console but still its toooooooooo slow !!

thanks in advanced !

torrent of chainstate to block 654048
magnet:?xt=urn:btih:0B92258C8863B589769BD3099CE89F2CF587007C

thanks man !!!

although i've copied the downloaded files and now the wallet says that there is a problem with database (error opening block database) and asks if i want to rebuild it.
If i press ok it crashes with the same message (error opening block database).....

i guess i ll have to wait to sync.....

4 days now and the wallet says 34 weeks behind..... anyone know why the wallet is soooo slow ?? is this normal?

Post the debug log.
You might want to restart the daemon as well

well, after like 5-6 days of restarts and plenty of the same "addnode" commands my wallet is finally synced.

the debug.log is huge but if you still want it i can post it here or in pm?

You don't need to post the log if it's synced. Unfortunately it does take awhile sometimes. Glad you got it worked out

Hi. I am having trouble running the client/wallet. It never connects to any networks. Says no Riecoin networks. Also I want to mine it. just that just take ./riecoin-qt -gen -genproclimit=1 from its install directory to start mining using 1 processor core? Any help is appreciated.

his instructions 4 pages back... to me

locate your wallet folder and edit ( or create if it doesnt have one ) the riecoin.conf file ...

add these nodes to it at the end of the .conf - and it should pick up one or two of them ...

Code:

addnode=173.51.33.72
addnode=192.95.24.114
addnode=198.251.84.199
addnode=218.45.179.204
addnode=45.76.139.92
addnode=5.9.39.9
addnode=51.255.207.142
addnode=79.137.74.43

that should help ...

no community / riecoin owned seednodes are working - so the seednodes cannot be hardcoded in the wallet for an easy and immediate sync ...

try it - and see what happens ...

as for mining, single mining isn't a good solution.
pool mining is good.
I am using ublock.it , http://ublock.it
works well, owner of the pool is cool.

+1 for this not only has it stood up to DDOS attacks have been happening when some others have been offline but seems to generate higher payouts for same hashrate for me.

Hello everyone. I am quite new to this things so I decided to ask you for advice. How do I deposit RIC to btc38? Because whenever I tried to do it, I got "Loading... " instead of generated wallet for deposit. For XPM it works fine.

[Toomykins]

I'm a relatively new to cryptocurrencies and having a few problems.
Mining would go fine on ypool a few years back, but since it's down I have had no success mining on other pools.
All the xptminers are confusing in that their build instructions say to git clone a different xptminer, in essence I don't really see the difference between the miner programs.
for instance the getting-started page on ublock.it tells you to get the source code at https://github.com/dave-andersen/fastrie, while the build instructions for the miner on that page tell me to get https://github.com/clintar/xptMiner.
Further following the instructions causes git to stop working because of the newer libgmp which libhogweed automatically makes use of, forcing you to delete the library libgmp.so.10 manually since you need git later on in the instructions.
Apparently deleting these libraries didn't matter since the xptminer succesfully built anyway without them.

Code:

./xptminer -o mine.ublock.it:5000 -t 4 -u toomykins.worker1 -p workerpass

pretty much exactly like how the website told me, gives me the following repeating message.

Code:

Connected to server using x.pushthrough(xpt) protocol
Connection to server lost - Reconnect in 45 seconds

Rebuilding using the newer libgmp gives the same message.
Building the actual git repo itself while somewhat ignoring the wrong build instructions gives me an error.

Code:

Makefile:82: recipe for target 'xptMiner/xptClientPacketHandler.o' failed
make: *** [xptMiner/xptClientPacketHandler.o] Error 1
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
Makefile:82: recipe for target 'xptMiner/main.o' failed
make: *** [xptMiner/main.o] Error 1
Makefile:82: recipe for target 'xptMiner/xptClient.o' failed
make: *** [xptMiner/xptClient.o] Error 1
Makefile:82: recipe for target 'xptMiner/ticker.o' failed
make: *** [xptMiner/ticker.o] Error 1

I honestly don't know where to go from here. The currency itself is cool, but the documentation is absolutely horrible.
Using Ubuntu 16 to build, both stratum and master branches, I don't know what's causing my building to fail after following all instructions.

Did you check out the stratum branch?

I've updated the README.md for the stratum branch -- go see if that's any happier:

https://github.com/dave-andersen/fastrie/tree/stratum/xptMiner

The build should be very straightforward now on Ubuntu.

Got it to work after restoring the libraries the manually built libgmp messed up. Thanks for pointing out that that's only needed for centos.
Any chance of seeing a mix of xptminer-gpu with this stratum version?

Is xptminer still useful?  I thought all the current pools were stratum.

(there's no GPU version -- the GPU stuff in xptminer was for other coins, as I understand it, and I've been trying to remove the old xpt stuff as part of simplifying the build process.)

If there are xpt pools, I can try to merge, but I don't have a lot of time right now.  If there are no xpt pools left, I'm happy to kill the xpt version entirely.

[priestc]

Has anyone tried to get any other exchanges to list the coin for trading? I suggest maybe Cryptopia or NovaExchange. Those exchanges seem to have a lot of coins listed, many far more obscure than RIC. I've used Cryptopia a bit and it seems fine, and have used Nova a bit less but it seemed to work well too. It seems Poloniex are never going to fix their RIC wallet, so I've sold my RIC on there and am waitingto jump back in when there exist a new exchange.

I think the only xpt server was ypool and their server code was not open source, so I'd say it's safe to kill the xpt client.
