[ANN] Grin | PoW Mining | Electronic transactions for all. Community driven.

[GringottsHodler]

Grin and Grin wallet 3.0.0-beta.1 have been released and are ready for public testing in advance of the full release slated for early January.

There are a lot of new features in this release, with transactions exchange via TOR, Payment Proofs and many node sync improvements being a few. But with great change comes a great need for public testing, so we urge the entire community to help out with the effort:

Particular Areas to focus on for testing

    Sync a new chain from scratch
    Replace binary, using chain data from previous versions
    Sending between 3.0.0 wallets and 2.x.x wallets
    Sending/receiving between a 3.0.0 wallet and your exchange of choice (use small test amounts!)
    Sending and receiving transactions via TOR, see the wallet change nodes below for how to do this.
    Requesting payment proofs
    IMPORTANT: Run a floonet node and perform transactions on floonet during the floonet test hardfork, scheduled for block 298,080, estimated to happen on or around December 19th.
    Wallet Developers - Using the new V3 wallet API functions, see notes below for details

How's GRIN or Monero or others not absolute as soon as ETH will have privacy? I'm not a troll, I'm honestly curious if there's any argument against what I'm saying.

ETH is already crumbling under its own weight and second layer privacy can never compete with first layer not to mention monero sends transactions in minutes for penny's, you just can't beat that. Maybe grin will match that with a lower  scaling someday but only time will tell. For today there is only Monero and anyone that tells you otherwise is selling snake oil.

Monero is not owned by anybody but you while ETH is distributed among millions thats the difference. Grin cant beat anything coz it is a community driven project while eth & co is a billionaire driven cartel and receives funding from me as well. When community drives a coin it is doomed to fail. You know that most people are retarded and the best contribution they can make to their field of interest is pauperize and dumb everything they touch.

Your going to have to break this up and clarify your points. Reading it hurts my head.

Hello GRIN Community  ,

I was looking to start mining, and was wondering if someone here can recommend me a good gpu to start mining GRIN with.

I was thinking I can start with 1 to learn how mining GRIN works and than upgrade from there when I have the proper understanding of all this.

Thanks

buy a used 1080ti

[Chris!]

If someone can make or help me make a grin signature I'd be happy to wear it! So far my attempts have been less than successful.

[bbc.reporter]

@Chris!. Open a thread in the services subforum and make an offer. Make the offer payable in Grin for adoption hehehe.

Since some users do not monitor the mining forum regularly I wanted to post here, that I recently released lolMiner 0.9.3 (Windows) and lolMiner 0.9.4 (Linux only).
(BTC Talk announcement thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4724735)

The miner is currently good for mining C31 on AMD cards. Performance of 0.9.3 and a stock Vega 64 is about 1.25 g/s while 0.9.4 can do up to 1.35 g/s (ROCm + Samsung memory at 1100 even 1.45g/s) . The reason for this being Linux only is that this new performance kernel currently does not work with Windows - currently investigating why.  Better settings lower the clock to ~1200 mhz and voltage to 835 range giving less then 120W chip power and still >1 g/s even on Vega 56. Navi cards are also supported. To achieve the claimed performance make sure CPU load on rest of system is low and that you use a recent driver (Win: 19.10.1 and newer recommended, Linux: amdgpu-pro 19.30 or ROCm 2.10 recommended - ROCm seems to be faster on 1 or 2 card systems, amdgpu-pro on multi card rigs)

Both versions feature the first available GRIN Cuckatoo-32 miner for 8G cards (use --coin GRIN-AT32) - the code in the 0.9.4 release is a bit more mature, so it was in 0.9.3 as an easter egg. When you want to mine C32 make sure your pool supports it already and be aware that at the current difficulties and with the C31 fade out  not yet started C31 is more profitable.

[haharadzha777]

what the pool support Cuckatoo-32???

[haharadzha777]

what the pool support Cuckatoo-32???

solo mode only yet

[haharadzha777]

omg, i only awake!!!

does it realy unlim emission? now 31 000 000 of grins? and in 10X more - over 310 000 000 grins after 10 years? and 20x after20 years and more?

 its planned more than 10x devaluating and desolation of effort miners, traders, programmers, investors, hodlers, voluntaries and others .... isnt it?

you a crazy locust, you are decided make money on broking people ... why?

[Lolliedieb]

No, grinmint, e.g already supporting C32 shares on the C31 stratum. But atm C31 giving better return since its fade out has not started yet

Hey, what happened to the website forums?

https://grin-forum.org/

I don't frequent them but thought I'd check whats up and nothing is there.

Try adding www, i.e. https://www.grin-forum.org/

[bbc.reporter]

@Hueristic. Hehehe what do you imply with nothing? No website or that nothing is happenning in there?

I go there for the developer announcements. That forum needs more activity, however.

Try adding www, i.e. https://www.grin-forum.org/

Ahh, improper link from their main page then is what was causing this.

Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.

We can’t connect to the server at grin-forum.org.

If that address is correct, here are three other things you can try:

    Try again later.
    Check your network connection.
    If you are connected but behind a firewall, check that Firefox has permission to access the Web.

Well thats something to talk about there.

And A thread on when .50 cents?

Maybe a Mic type guessing game for it. ;P

[DavidMula]

After reading through am interested to see what comes out of this project. Hoping it succeeds.

Soon tm.

Drop a link here.

It will succeed and I reckon might be more sustainable far longer than most of the proof of work coins in the cryptospace. This has something to do with grin's monetary policy hehehe.

Why binance delist GRIN?

Well you shouldnt get anxious about 30-years period. When we get there, a coin will be long gone. Emission rate after 30 years should be of no relevance. The issue with the coin is untold truth about parental issues of its creator. His affection to his farther and inability to express his grievance other than manslaughter led to an unexpected and sad turn in his life.
