[ANN] ¤ DMD Diamond 3.0 | Scarce ¤ Valuable ¤ Secure | PoS 3.0 | Masternodes 65%

[danbi]

So you HR, still suggest the Diamond Foundation should support the price of Diamond by "buying" it with the foundation contributions? How would that work in your imagination? The Foundation actually has some (not much) DMD. They buy DMD with DMD on Cryptsy and drive the price up, or what?

I am certainly not a finances expert, but you claim to be. So please enlighten us!

It is possible that Community Diamond now very few participants. Moved too slowly work. In this situation, work must be carried out in different directions - new site, improving and promotion coin, wallet for mass acceptance, quality network blocks explorer .. Maybe you need to consider the option of increasing the staff, and to attract new investors to his team..
When people see that the project Diamond is actively developing, then the price will go up.

Where can i get the diamond kernel miner?  sph-sgminer doesn't seem to have it and groestl doesn't seem to work :/

Try updating your sph-sgminer. I had a slightly out of date version but was still mining DMD on it.

I downloaded that again, but it doesn't have the "diamond" kernel in it  

When it solves a block, I'm finding this in my wallet debug.log

Code:

When you run sph-sgminer you need to specify the kernel as "groestlcoin". That should work unless something has changed with the coin since I last mined it a couple weeks back.

Waiting for wallet to sync up now so I can confirm it for you...

EDIT: Still works. Just picked off another solo block

Yes I can solo that way, but pool mining doesn't seem to work at all.  In previous posts, there are reports of a "diamond" kernel fixing things.   I believe this is the source, just need a windows binary :/   https://github.com/danbi/sph-sgminer

You are correct. I didn't realize you were trying to mine in a pool. I went solo for about two weeks straight and that worked out well but it's no longer profitable for me with the current difficulty and market price.

What's happening with the POS update is it coming? Any updates on that.

[popshot]

What's happening with the POS update is it coming? Any updates on that.

Yes it is coming, as was mentioned before we are in the debugging mode. We are testing all the scenarios and whenever crash happens we find the root cause and fix it. The progress we're making is rapid and we sorted out many underlying paradoxes that existed in the code. This is making Diamond not just another copy coin, but actually an improved version. Proof of Stake works (and stakes), we are testing it on the forked main chain so we are sure it's compatible with the old database (ensuring gathered coin age is preserved).

You have to understand us, that after the latest rush release (which was a flop) we are putting stability as number one priority, all the rest comes later.

Do you need some to beta test it as well. I understand that you need to be sure that there isn't any possible problem but we all know something always happens. Just keep us updated.

Of course it's impossible to debug any software 100% especially the one of such complexity. We would be aiming at making it very robust, so we wouldn't have to change anything significant for as long as it is possible.
Client functionality for an 'ordinary' user has been already tested positively; what we concentrate now are things that would affect minority of users (i.e long term serious miners). We can test these on our Foundation wallet with thousands of micro transactions.
The client will be released once we are sure it is ready.
The next step will be definitely contacting Cryptsy and giving them a lot of time to test the software (and this time GitHub will be properly used and appropriately commented so it is transparent to anyone what changes have been made), to avoid any trade freeze. Mining pools and then 'ordinary' users will follow suit.
All of that is going to happen sooner then later.

P.S. I've updated the first post with Download links to Sourceforge for those who cannot use Mega.

Goodbye, and best of luck (and I truly mean that).

Can I have your DMD if you're no longer needing them? dRFU4RMoVuNaLegTLDcf3vL6LzvaRnKaYe Many thanks,

Work quietly, the main thing that the update is delayed for months. Coin with the Diamond name should correspond to its name.

Unfortunately, the author has abandoned sph-sgminer, this is why he did not integrated my Diamond kernel modifications back. Hopefully, someone will take over that project. There was a post earlier in this thread with link to Windows binary with diamond kernel.

In any case, hope to have soon an "official" build for Windows, too.

It is about one month since Diamond has forked and started using Groestl. The new release is very near.

I have considered a procedure to do a wider beta test. The main stumbling block is most users willing to test run on Windows and producing Windows binaries is usually very slow (considering the pace of changes). We have more or less identified and fixed the glaring bugs, and are now testing various network parameters. Unfortunately, most of these parameters require a fork, which in testing means we need to update all nodes participating in the test network at the same time, or they create many forks --- this is more or less the challenge we face for a wider test.

Anyway, if you think you could spend the time required for testing, you could contact me to discuss it.
