Hehe .. nice milestone. Happy Blockday

Looks like it was meant to be that my wallet has been staking whole day today, just had a look. The little notification pop-up in the corner is about 8 hours late, much staking

Just posted a new blog and talk about Zeit: http://www.pqinternet.com/crypto-currency/will-2015-be-the-year-of-bitcoin-and-altcoin

I don't post much (here or on my blog  ) but I still support Zeit Coin (been in on it since the start)!

Fred

[stevegreer]

Thanks for the support Fred! Any advertisement we can get is greatly appreciated!

[LionOfNarnia]

Yeah, nice one Fred

Maybe on your next blog you could talk about why Zeit is better than BTC because PoS mining is SO much more energy-efficient than SHA-256?

[Varvarin]

Happy New Year folks. May it be a better one

I need your assistance with a Science Project fundraiser we have going at Einsteinium Foundation - EMC2 coin.

https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/sciencestudy-memory-loss-due-to-sleep-deprivation

I would really appreciate it if you can find a few bucks, or spread the word, to help a noble project for a prestigious science lab at University of Pennsylvania. - we are conducting a donation drive in cryptocoins as well, see details here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=494708.msg10002287#msg10002287

Thank you

When I get some time after this, getting my ZeitKnight badge too

Awright -- so I didn't follow the upgrade instructions and deleted my peers.dat file... now I am getting 0 connections.

Anyone have a conf file I can copy?

[Mitras]

I made the same mistake.

You can download a bootstrap at Zeit-Coin.net
Download it, delete all files at the Zeitcoin Wallet except wallet.dat.
Copy all files from the bootstrap into the walletfolder.
run Zeitcoin-qt.exe.
The whole thing will take a couple of hours and wallet will not open, you just can see the Logo.

I find the wallet uses about 50% CPU which is to much for me running from a laptop, others have this issue?

If you are on a dual processor your average should be ~20 to 25% cpu.
But here are some previous post to help decrease cpu usuage.

To keep your stake,
In coin control , every few days or weekly, look at the blocks , click on confirmations, this will sort the blocks, select some of the ones with the lowest confirmations, and send them to your default receive address (You will have to copy & paste your default receive address into send field, no way to add it your send address book Yet.) By selecting the lowest confirmations you only combine coins that have staked recently and they won't lose more than a few days from their maturity.

Or if CPU is more important than POS Stake , then combine them immediately.
Lower the # of Blocks , less CPU it uses.

Below is a post that confirms it works.
Follow up to using coin control to reduce the amount of blocks and reducing cpu use.  It works!
_______________________________________________________________________________ ____
2 weeks ago I had over 8000 blocks and my cpu was at 19.3%
I started combining blocks with the goal of getting down to 100.  There was no noticeable change in cpu until I got down to 900 blocks, this takes time if you want to preserve your coin age and I figure I will be down to about 80 blocks in 2 more weeks.

Currently sitting at 140 blocks and cpu use is at 5%, which is a big improvement - thanks for the tips!

Anyone who has high cpu use with the wallet might want to use the coin control and start consolidating the blocks into a smaller number, it's definitely made an improvement for me.

Only other factor would be if you are running it in a VM.

That was my wallet with over 8000 blocks, here is another follow up to reducing cpu use, the number of blocks and the size of the wallet.dat file itself.

That original wallet.dat file increased in size to over 13mb so I decided to move all of the coins to a new wallet.dat after they staked, this took some time (20 days to not lose coin age) and during the process I maintained 2 wallet.dat files and kept renaming them back and forth until I had all coins moved to the new wallet.dat. 

The original wallet.dat which is now empty with a balance of 0 coins is still 13.7 meg.  The new wallet which has all of my coins in 3 blocks is 300kb, and cpu use is 2-3%.  Added bonus is that the reduced size wastes less space on the SSD drive as well as on the usb thumb drives used as backups.  It's working great and the larger blocks stake instantly once they hit 20 days.

Now if Cryptsy would actually fix their wallet I could get some more coins staking, it's been in maintenance mode far too long.

Thanks for the Update.

+1 on Cryptsy issue.

Why Zeitcoin is in a Win/Win Situation.

Zeitcoin currently tied to litecoin market.

If Value of Litecoin goes up , Our Market Cap goes up.  

If the Value of Litecoin drops, it lowers the price of zeitcoins so we can buy more zeit for less and we can then vault back into the bitcoin market.    

Litecoin down to $2.28 at this posting , 14.49% cheaper.
Lower it gets the more zeit we can get.

 

[LionOfNarnia]

Is anyone aware of this place?

http://cryptodouble.com/

They 'use' Zeit, but are using the 'very old' coin logo - probably the wrong daemon too

It sounds pretty fishy to me!

AVOID!

[stevegreer]

They've posted links in several different coins' threads. Very much a scam that no one is buying. They get called out every time.

[Varvarin]

LTC just took a mega dump to 76 .. and BTC dumped to $290 .. shockingly good deals around now.

Someone took out all the buy walls (including mine at 74/75) so the high buy is currently 43 - great chance to snaffle a few ULTRA-cheap

(High buy on crapsy is 94)
