[XMR] Monero - A secure, private, untraceable cryptocurrency

Nethash has dropped but difficulty remains the same, how is that so?
Difficulty is the product of Nethash.
I thought they go together....
Makes no sense

Hash rate can only be estimated not measured directly. Until there are enough blocks upon which to base the estimate, the estimate won't be accurate.

Network Hashrate
942.12 MH/s
84.3 % unknown

something wrong...

Is the HR per GPU the same ?

The Difficulty will adjust automatically within 24-48h.

Look:
https://miningpoolstats.stream/monero

Note, known pools have only ~168 MH/s now instead of typical ~325.
Network hashrate is calculated based on Difficulty and thus has some inertia.

Previous time hard fork happened, I remember Difficulty was adjusting within more than 24h, closer to 48h.

It is one of the greatest and most advantageous specifications of Monero.
Faster required time to adjust difficulty of network, it is truly faster than bitcoin network.
The specification of Monero also help its to be more flexible and adaptable to serious changes on network, and somehow can better prevent network clogs due to extremely high difficulty, miner abandonment, and lack of resources on the main net to confirm transactions.

thats nice~

thank you

Its really cool to see XMR fighting against ASIC miners.
Monero really need to do something to keep decentralization permanently.

By the way you can check that difficulty is going down in this link.

Proof-of-Work always seriously damage our planet's environment, no matter what the algorithm is for CPUs, GPUs, or ASICs.

It do not when only renewable energy is used. There is enough renewable energy fro just everything. All we need is to seize it.

Hi guys.

A friend of mine recently got this message when running the latest full node:

WARN    cn     
src/cryptonote_core/cryptonote_core.cpp:1767    There were 5 blocks in the last 90 minutes,
there might be large hash rate changes, or we might be partitioned, cut off from the Monero network or under attack. Or it could be just sheer bad luck

I assume this was just a temporary issue due to the fork and some drastic changes in hash-rate. Or is there some other issue?
Thanks for your help.

Yes since ASIC miners cant mine anymore overall hashrate decreased by factor 3 or 4. soon we should get final number. But also now new GPU miners will start flocking back in,  and hash rate will start growing back, since Monero is probably super worth to mine now for them.

You can see here https://www.coinwarz.com/difficulty-charts/monero-difficulty-chart   Difficulty is at 1/3 now.

Does the new mining algorithm give less of a hashrate?

I notice that the hashrate is now sitting at 250MH/s, I have been mining with xmrig with a RX 470 and are getting around 100h/s
I'm sure before the first asic algo update I was getting over 200h/s on the same card does this mean the algo now @250MH/s makes the network secure as it would have been with 500MH/s back then?

Or is my configuration most probably shite?

RX 470 getting 930+ h/s with Samsung memory and 800+ with other memory. Check your miner/config/bios.

In that discussion, as I've understood, sech1 focuses on the problem to make ASICs as efficient and as complicated as Intel CPU.
linzhi-sonia says it will try because he likes this stuff with ASICs and their developing.

What I think? We should focus on TRUE randomness instead of making mining algo to be too difficult for ASICs just because complicated design of the algo, for example, adding a true virtual machine level into algo design, like somewhat done in RandomX.

Currently, cn/r uses block height as a source of randomness. And as linzhi-sonia mentioned, he will just add an interpreter or pre-compiled parts to the algo, because block height is known in advance to the future.

I propose to add TRUE random generator via external ORACLES (like oracles work in Ethereum contracts). Or, good source of true randomness is LONG hash of all the transactions in last 100 blocks for example. Thus linzhi-sonia can't predict and pre-compile no parts of mining algo.

Also we may dream about FLOATING POINT mining algo based on fining solutions of differential or integral equations of random nature.

Finally we may focus on solution findings of SYMBOLIC mathematical problems, randomly generated.

What do you think, Community?

I can't open my monero Legder wallet with 0.14. I got "Could't open wallet. Wrong Device status : SW=6e00 (EXPECT=9000, MASK=ffff)".

Any ideas?

EDIT - forget it, I was on firmware 1.4.2. Updated Ledger live and firmware to 1.5.5 and now it works.

Please not that there is a bug in Ledger Monero app v1.1.3. Therefore, Ledger Monero users are advised not to use their wallets until Ledger Monero app v1.2.x is out.
