[ANN] [BTQ] BitQuark | Super secure hashing | CPU mining

[MichelV69]

We're aways from being finished with the site, but it does appear to be functional so use it while it's in live testing mode and keep giving us your feed back and recommendations.

Well, the first thing I strongly suggest is that you allow addresses outside of the USA.  I'm in Canada;  as far as I can tell, I can't place an add because I'm not American. :/

The other thing I'd recommend is a conversion tool that lets me say "I want to sell this for $5" and have the site show the items in BTQ pricing based on exchange averages.

Otherwise, I have to go do the conversion work myself ... and, well, it's just easier to list on eBay where I neither of those two things are issues.

All that said, the site is looking great and I'm looking forward to listing a few things on it.

Do you think we have enough support to get listed at https://chainz.cryptoid.info/

If FairQuark can get listed on there, then I don't see why BitQuark can't

I used to mine on his fairquark pool so I just sent fairglu a request to add bitquark.  He has an awesome blockchain explorer.

That would be amazing!

Sorry but I can not get the precompiled Linux files to execute on Xubuntu 12.04 or 13.10, only 14.04.

Well damn...it must be because I compiled it on 14.04

You've probably noticed I disabled the live stats on the dashboard page of the pool. The reason I done this is because some of the stats were off and I had to disable it so that I could fix the stats. So now the stats are correct

Nice, good job !!!!

Love the new wallet!  6more days till the next swisscex coinis chosen.  Vote for btq every day.

[BitQuark]

Thanks guys! I'm glad you like it. I'm always looking for ways to improve the wallet

[DannyTom]

I don't know how easy it would be, but add division options or formatting for the coin supply and hash rate.

   - Coins minted:  1343190.50 BTQ
   - Coins minted:  1,343,190.50 BTQ

   - Network hashrate:  91010874 hps
   - Network hashrate:  9.10 Ghs


User upload skins (so I can put a picture of my ex-wife in my wallet background, since all my coin profits go to her anyway).

These are purely cosmetic and not necessary, but would really make BitQuark stand out even more.

Also, got a message from fairglu about adding BTQ to the https://chainz.cryptoid.info/ block explorer.  It's now 0.3 BTC per year (209,254.12 BTQ per year at the last rate I checked on c-cex.com or about $145 USD) to be included.

I'd help contribute to a fund if the rest of the BTQ community is willing.

Sounds good to me, I'm in! I'm sure we can all band together and come up with 0.3 BTC.

If you build the client from source, you can customize the skins by go to this folder and inserting your own bg1.png, bg2.png, bg3.png...etc.

BitQuark-0.8.3r18\src\qt\res\images

Just make sure to make the bg image the same dimensions as the original background images. I will also work on the number formatting as well.

That's pretty cool. One thing I noticed about skins is the selection is not sticky between sessions. That would be nice.

Also a question. Does the precompiled wallet need to have all the same dependencies installed on the computer simply to run as is needed to compile the same wallet from source code?

Are you referring to the Linux build? If so, I don't think it should because they are statically built...but I maybe wrong on that as far as Linux is concerned...still in the newbie phase

[BitQuark]

Until next release, if you want to change the "Network Hashrate" you can edit the src/qt/overviewpage.cpp line 162 with the following code:

Code:

ui->labelHashrate->setText(QString("%1 MH/s").arg(GetNetworkHashPS(1440, -1)/1000000));

Well OF COURSE I'm referring to the Linux build! What else is there? LOL!

I think it would be worthwhile for us to create some disposable virtual machines for testing and compiling, at the very least the current LTS versions of Xubuntu (12.04 and 14.04), perhaps even Debian, OpenBSD, CentOS, etc. Since Ubuntu 13.04 and 13.10 are no longer supported we can safely omit these.

[Mr.B!]

Anyone reading up on using the bitcoin blockchain as Proof of Existence?

Just trying to think of new ways to use bitquark too since I have 0 bitcoins and a few hundred bitquarks (about $0.50 worth so far!)

Haha remember I'm a Windows Generation Kid lol....I took a class on Linux a few years back in college, so I'm still learning

I will build a VM and install a fresh copy of 14.04 and see if I need the deps pre-installed or not and report back to you guys
