I speak a bit about Bitquark at the tail end of my last interview video with Mark Dansie. This link will take you right to the spot. Feel free to use this in promoting the coin in any way you see fit. https://youtu.be/vx609ljMhFE?t=1h7m25sZ Thanks Zero! I just released the BitQuark client update with Qt 5 support and DarkGravityWave2. This update is a MANDATORY one! You should update your client before block 1,200,000. The download links have been updated in the OP and on BitQuark.info DGW2 will change the retargeting time from 20 blocks to 1 block. https://github.com/bitquarkcoin/BitQuark-0.8.3r19 |

Transactions must be included in a block to be properly completed. When you send a transaction, it is broadcast to miners. Miners can then optionally include it in their next blocks. Miners will be more inclined to include your transaction if it has a higher transaction fee.

If you have trouble building the client on linux systems, just copy the code below and save it as AutoBuild.sh # Download and Install the Latest Updates for the OS
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y
# Install essential packages
sudo apt-get -y install \
gcc g++ autoconf automake make git zip unzip \
qt4-qmake libqt4-dev build-essential libboost-dev libboost-system-dev libboost-filesystem-dev \
libboost-program-options-dev libboost-thread-dev libssl-dev libdb++-dev libminiupnpc-dev libprotobuf-dev \
protobuf-compiler libqrencode-dev \
\
# Get latest BitQuark source
git clone https://github.com/bitquarkcoin/BitQuark-0.8.3r19.git BTQ-r19
cd BTQ-r19
# Install libpng (Used for PHP GD Library Extension)
wget -O- http://sourceforge.net/projects/libpng/files/libpng16/older-releases/1.6.10/libpng-1.6.10.tar.gz | tar -zxf -
cd libpng-1.6.10
./configure && make && sudo make install
cd ..
# Now building bitquarkd
cd src/leveldb
chmod +x build_detect_platform
cd ..
make -f makefile.unix
# Now building bitquark-qt
cd ..
qmake "USE_QRCODE=1" "USE_UPNP=1" "USE_IPV6=1" bitquark-qt.pro
make
Then make the file executable by running Then just execute the file from terminal with the following command. |

Then make the file executable by running Then just execute the file from terminal with the following command. Thanks! I appreciate the help. I had everything you listed already installed. I actually attempted compilation on 2 machines with the same errors, same with the precompiled version. I did manage to compile it from github on a third machine and it allowed me to run it on the originally intended machine. I think it might of been my version of boost not playing nice with the compiler.. Thanks again! |

We need to rekindle interest in the coin. So QT5 I understand. Retargeting I'm not as clear on. I'm all recompiled and distributed to all my machines but what happens if someone does not upgrade their wallet? What effect does that have on them and/or the rest of us? |

I'm all recompiled and distributed to all my machines but what happens if someone does not upgrade their wallet? What effect does that have on them and/or the rest of us? According to the developer, "DarkGravityWave uses multiple exponential moving averages and a simple moving average to smoothly adjust the difficulty. This implementation is far more simplistic and better suited to adjust difficulty than KGW and also fixes all known exploits." Instead of the difficulty being adjusted every 20 blocks, after block 1,200,000 the difficulty will be adjusted every block. This will help with miners dipping in and out during low difficulty. I agree, we need to put together a large scale BitQuark awareness campaign to spread the word about BTQ. Get more people interested and more online shops/exchanges accepting BTQ! |

We have about 2 days left before DGW2 takes over! Hopefully everything will transition good IF not, revert back to version 0.8.3r18 til issue is resolved. |

How can we get more people interested in BitQuark? Any ideas??
Improving Proof of Stake for Proof of Lottery. All who want to participate, send an amount of BitQuark, 100 BTQ maybe. Limited to one entry per Wallet. Every 3000 blocks (about one day) by lot is chosen a participant to generate the block, and those who do win all BitQuark sent by the participants. All this in BitQuark client and the participation is only possible if the client is connected and synchronized with the network at the time of the draw. I know the PoS makes a random choice, making it easy idea to implement. You only need to implement a way to manage the participating transactions. Sorry about my English. Thank you for being an active developer and not abandoning the project even in times of crisis. Not really sure how to implement that into the client, but I can do a random giveaway of 1,000 BTQ. Just tweet your BTQ address along with this "@BitQuarkCoin BitQuark, The Faster Bitcoin YOUR_BTQ_ADDRESS" I will select an address at random and send 1,000 BTQ's to it. I will collect the addresses from now til May 18, 2015. Still have lottery here http://lotto.ddns.net/bitquarklottoAnd btqlotto's wallet is updated to 0.8.3r19 And #2: check the OP images is not showing anymore... |

Thanks for the info, I accidentally powered down the bitquark.info server and that's why the images weren't showing up on the OP. Thanks again! |

lol, i actually kind of forgot about this coin, i hear the new russian miner is putting up record hash rates on gpu's for this but I have not tried it the virus total on it , in particular the fact that no source is available is a turn off for me another issue is some guys actually reported lower hash rate with that new miner and the newer drivers ect... (on amd) anyway i just popped by the thread to wish you guys well, who knows i may have to dig out my wallet and build the new client and fire up the only gpu i have to check it out... We have about 8 hrs (approx. 10 PM EST) till DGW2 kicks in!

Tell me more about this Russian miner.
Also, how long will bitquark.info be off line?

I've noticed the same problem with my windows client. The Linux client runs OK. I will recompile the windows binary and see if I can figure out what is going wrong. |
