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

Hmmm, is there a way to get a list of all banned nodes? Could it have anything to do with the lowered hashrate.

The bans are local, something your own node does to protect itself. You can see your own local list with "bans". There is no global list.

[smooth]

So it looks like the defacto ban period set in the daemon is 24 hours.

Yes that's right. After 24 hours the ban will lift, and connections are again allowed with that peer. This does not mean that necessarily a connection will be made with that peer. But if another connection is made and the peer still misbehaves, it will be banned again. This repeats indefinitely. So you will get, potentially, a small amount of pestering every 24 hours from a misbehaving node until it gets re-banned.

I think the manual ban command allows you to set a different timeout, but that shouldn't normally be necessary.

Concerning Wolf's AMD miner.

After two days of mining I can tell it is quite stable. Crashed only twice when Photoshop was using GPU too. It also takes 13% of CPU - i7 2600K during work.

It is too early, but judging from charts on dwarfpool, my personal hashrate is almost the same as it was before with rival miner.


P.S. We should have started own thread for this.

So I downloaded windows version of that miner that Wolf linked the other day but for the life of me I'm not sure how to get it to run in widows?  I have 6x 280x's on a rig that I want to get running and do some comparisons to Claymore on power draw and hash rate.   Then again I'm no expert with command line stuff, I'm getting better but still not sure how to run that miner.

Make file for example run.bat and write there

Code:

miner  xmr.conf

in xmr.conf for each of your cards add under devices section:

Code:

{
					"index": 0,
					"corefreq": 1000,
					"memfreq": 1500,
					"fanspeed": 65,
					"powertune": 20,
					"threads": 1,
					"rawintensity": 1336,
					"worksize": 8
},

separated with comma and changing "index": to 0, 1, 2, 3 etc. respectively.
after the last entry comma is not needed.


Change rawintensity for your cards to something lower.




Here's the whole example:

hi i'm new to this. How do I get the xmr.conf file to work with 2 cards? I can only get it to run with one for some reason no matter how i try and add another GPU id "1"?  thanks!  

edit - is this even the right thread?

Thanks so much. I'll write the batch file tonight and play around.

I got this very same thing earlier this week as well.  I didn't take a screen shot of it but this was it.

I also had this red screen in daemon

Continue testing new Wolf's AMD miner.

Interesting behavior on one pool: it kinda looses connection to this paricular pool, i.e. after some time mining (it may be an hour or more, or even less) it continues mining and says it found shares but without the message that share is accepted and pool says last share submitted is for example an hour ago.

It happens only on one pool of all that I tried. On others it was mining quite long (no less than 10 hours) without issues and shares were rewarded.

It's a pity because I liked that pool for its generous rewards and now I have to monitor it

Happened to me twice. Both times it happened around two days after restarting the daemon. Last time i left it to run for 3 hours in order to see if it corrects itself but it kept showing errors and the incoming connections were dropping so i restarted the daemon.

Hi all,

Quick question - have older wallet.dat files (pre seed) been depricated in v0.9.1?

When I try to run simple wallet I get the following error :

Code:

Error: failed to load wallet: invalid signature

However if I run an older simplewallet with the v0.9.1 bitmonerod the wallet file is accepted and syncs.

It this just a question of creating a new wallet (with new address) and transfering fund from old (using old simplewallet) to new?

Just want to check before I try this.

Cheers

Dave

Did you tried deleting the .bin and restoring from the .keys? My pre-seed .keys is still working. Backup your wallet first.

Bittrex is another one.

Sad that NY consistently chooses banning over freedom, even to the point of a 20oz soda.

Move. Alternatively, consider relocating.

Actually, after looking a bit, it appears that bittrex.com has applied for a BitLicense. Volume is quite low (~5 BTC) on the XMR market, but I'm sure some tasty bids would attract more sell-side liquidity (or buy-side dumping).

That's just New York City, rather than the whole state, but agree nonetheless.
