[ANN] Orbitcoin v1.6.3.0 ~ NeoScrypt ~ Green Stake ~ 11 Years Old

[ghostlander]

Seperate note, why is there no whitepaper and who is the original Dev and who are the current team members?

I write a white paper if I develop something new which cannot be explained in a forum post like I've done with the NeoScrypt algorithm. I've never thought Orbitcoin needs a white paper of its own.

There was no original dev. One chap wanted a customised coin, so he paid another chap who made it happen. That was in 2013. Since the 1st chap had no clue in programming and the 2nd one had no intention of working for free, things went downhill in just a few months. I was contracted to fix it up and took over eventually.

Ghostlander, Ok I read about you as the original dev just last night. This is a great coin with huge value compared to other coins.  Your staking in wallet is ingenious, and the value of the coin has been maintained. I think you should be proud man. Also I don't think this coin would be difficult to market to get other investors involved. Definitely just needs a direction. I have been asking around in other coin communities about in wallet staking and no one seems to know how or understand this.  Everyone wants investors to drop loads on master nodes.  Thank you ghostlander, your contributions are immense!  And you developed NSGminer correct? wow. Im a fan!

Ok,

Can you help me with this .conf file that I cant seem to get working?

I'm inclined to think the whole concept of master nodes is unfair. One coin holder should not have a financial advantage over another coin holder just because he is a kind of whale. Everyone must have the same rights in a decentralised trustless network.

Yes, NSGminer is my work. I've forked BFGminer about 2.5 years back, customised it and added NeoScrypt. There may be faster miners out there, but NSGminer is open source and comes with more features than any competitor.

If you put orbitcoin.conf, a simple ASCII text file, in your data subdirectory, it should be picked up by the wallet on a start-up.

Should I stay with Orbit or migrate everything to Trezar?

The decision is entirely up to you.

@ghostlander, if I'm looking at this right, do we have ~300K Orbitcoins left to be mined?

Thanks for all of the great work through the years.

3.77 million - 3.24 million = 0.53 million left

The next halving is near.

Thank you, that's good to know the right amount.

I looked at the OP and didn't see where the halving was mentioned.  At which block does the halving occur?  Also, will there be any other halvings before 3.77 million is reached?

The halvings are every 500 thousand blocks. There will be many more until the limit is reached.

PoS reward halved (since block 2500001)

Now every stake will give you 0.50 ORB (for the next 500k blocks)

Past weeks most alts lowered in price, also Orbitcoin.
Now is a good time to buy some ORB for a low price and to stake
your ORB while the reward is still on a high rate 



Orbitcoin is 5+ years old and still alive and kickin'

Several 10-thousands of ORB

Several 10-thousands of ORB 

cool 

I'm a holder, no dump from me, only long term thinking.
I started 4+ years ago with buying my first ORB.
Since then i'm staking ORB and it gives me thousands of extra (free!) ORB so far.
Even now the reward halved it's worth to hold ORB.
I.m.o. Orbitcoin is one of the best coins to hold and stake!

Next to that, Ghostlander is a great dev (all those years!)

yep, do you have any advice how to organise inputs for better ORB staking? 1 big input or several smaller? eg 10000 ORB in 1 tx or divided to txs per 100-1000 ORB in 1 wallet. I do not have big amount but I have never obtained any POS block in my ORB wallet. TZC and RDD POS wallets are doing well but ORB nothing in my case.

I would advice several smaller inputs (you need at least 20 ORB in your wallet) try inputs with a minimum of 50, bigger inputs will stake faster.

best pool for minig coin

[bitmaster1x2]

Would be nice to have an auto splitter like Hyperstake. 

[marecek666]

best pool for minig coin

here are pools that still support direct ORB mining and are synchronized correctly:
yiimp.eu (2% fee, min payout 0.01 ORB)
aikapool.com (1% fee, min payout 1 ORB)

multipools:
mining-dutch.nl (2% fee, min payout 0.0001 ORB)
zpool.ca (1.75% fee, min payout 0.05 ORB)
zergpool.com (0.5% fee, min payout is equivalent of 0.0001 BTC)

do not use TBF pool. It is not correctly synchronized (more than 3 months now) and it is unable to change/set payout wallet and limits. Pool operator has not fixed it yet.

You can use the settings stakecombine and stakesplit (orbitcoin.conf)

stakecombine=50
stakesplit=100

Combines small inputs into at least 50 ORB and once it reach 100 ORB
it will split into 2 x 50 ORB (you can change the numbers).

We're still mining ORB: http://pool.hashrefinery.com/site/gomining?algo=neoscrypt

Fee is currently 0.5% for neoscrypt.  Payout every 8 hours for balances above 0.005.

[ghostlander]

Haven't opened my desktop wallet in 2 weeks. I open it today, and it consistently loads the splash, then disappears, and closes in the background. I cannot get it to run, at all.

Take a look at your debug.log for the reason.

Greetings. I've a problem setting up Orbitcoin on yiimp.

The chain is synced (and re-downloaded multiple times), but when trying to submit a block I see

Code:

ERROR: CheckBlock() : merkle root verification failed
ERROR: ProcessBlock() : CheckBlock() FAILED

Any suggestions?

There are a few ways to send a block to the daemon. How do you do it?
