[ANN][ENRG]Energycoin - Android Released - Bittrex -

[crypto4jan]

Hi,

since the energy app data is now 500MB. it gets a bit hard to sync blocks. I created a bootstrap.dat file to download it quickly. then it would only take  a few hours to sync. This is only working on latest wallet.

Download the torrent file from here:
https://mega.co.nz/#!V0BAALiK!I0YCr19HhmOr5COH-_T6_J8gcQfAusRiUO10f1_jLVI

Download the energycoin wallet. I assume you're on windows.

Right click on exe > create shortcut.
Right click shortcut > click properties > shortcut > in target field add >  -loadblock=\path\to\bootstrap.dat -dbcache=1000

so that will look like:
C:\path\to\energycoin-qt.exe -loadblock=\path\to\bootstrap.dat -dbcache=1000

Now, run that shortcut, until the blocks are fully loaded. Thats it. it will save the hassle of running wallet day and night for initial sync.

Thanks for doing this.

Will try to download it so that I can upgrade the wallet to the latest version but don't need to take long for sync.

This works good, in a few hours you have a complete blockchain operational.

I had a great talk today about posible application EnergyCoin for http://gpx.eu/
This is a energybank for green energy.
From now my focus for development of EnergyCoin is more Energy related.
The relation with crowdmapping of trees and other Geo-information applications is not core application for EnergyCoin. When I focus for Energy-application beter posibilities and with the energybank we can grow BIG.

For crowdmapping I choice now for CheckCoin and other coins I follow are for research.

In near future I go organize a Meetup to develop open source apps for EnergyCoin in combination with EnergyBank GPX if we can come to agreement.

Keep your ENRG if you wish to be a rich man in future!

Thanks Jan!   I got some more energy low the other week on the sell...Continue with the great work and thanks for the updates!

Anyone elses wallet using loads of CPU time as well? Mine at idle not staking uses 14 - 20 % of my CPU time, had to close the wallet as its using to much

You are using an old version wallet I think.
On my netbook atom pc 1% CPU and not more.

Again the message:

This market is in danger of de-listing due to low trade volume and lack of user interest. It may be removed on February 6th unless the average daily trade volume for the last 7 days exceeds 0.2 BTC.

Strange we have an avarage volume of 0.2 easely.
I go contact Bittrex.

I have answer we can check the volume:

Arrrg, they plan to delist us on my birthday.lol

That is not going to happen!

[Harcon]

 I trust that it wont. I have seen enough volume to keep it listed. They are just being touchy for what ever reason. 

[Lovethecoins]

Agree shouldn't happen.. We have had decent volume lately pretty stupid we even got the warning...

This was the email I got form Bittrex:

Hi,

The volume is checked automatically and it was low enough to trigger the warning. Usually this happens if a big trade that impacted the volume has now fallen out of the 7 day window. As long as the average volume is sustained by next weekend, the warning will get removed. You can periodically check it here: https://beta.bittrex.com/Market/Index?MarketName=BTC-ENRG&tab=metrics

 Just a bit of info for those running a Raspberry pi as a node. You might want to check this out.

 http://www.recantha.co.uk/blog/?p=11881

 The Raspberry Pi 2 was released today. They kept the RPI B+ form factor, gave it 1GB RAM and a new Quadcore 900 Mhz CPU. Power usage is back up to what it was for the Model B, but since that was never a big amount of power it's not a big issue for the performance gain.

 Hummm, I wonder if this will make running a node a bit faster? I guess I shall see later this month.

I thought the nodes were resource-conservative as it is, so wouldn't the effect be negligible?

 The biggest area that this new pi might effect is any future enhancements to the wallet or coin. I would expect that the older pis would be to limited in power to do much in the way of adding new things to the wallet.

I would also think that the new pi my reduce the time it takes to verify a blockchain download.  My B+ took the better part of 1 week to do a fresh download and verify of the block chain after I did a fresh raspbian install.

I'd love someone to correct me if I'm wrong, but I think reading the blockchain is more HDD/RAM-based than CPU. At least from my experience, when the system is syncing, my HDD read speed and RAM usage shoot through the roof, while the CPU isn't affected much. And when syncing is done, HDD/RAM both cool down.

When synced it is very energy efficient I confirm.

About Energy GHZ the dividends of January are payed. The payments were not impressive but if take the BTC-rate into account I'm satisfied.

Also some nice buy support today @Bittrex!

I talking with shareholder of GPX EnergyBank for application for EnergyCoin.
The value we have in mind is 1 ENRG = 1 KWH

As in being able to use ENRG to pay for electric bills, or something else?

Electric bills and green energy market and maybe more.

 It dose indeed depend a lot on Hard drive speed and indeed, i use a 16 GB class 10 card for the blockchain, not an external drive, so that can affect my personal results but I also know that if you have the extra RAM ( as the new pi dose ) with the extra CPU cores, you should see an improvement in speed. it is hard to say because a lot goes into performance on a system. The hard drive and RAM do not work independently of everything else on a system, so, depending on the application and type of data you can see no change or a really big change in speed.  

 I would also think that you would want efficient systems that can scale with the higher number of transactions the network might see if the coin really takes off. In any event, since I will be getting a V2 Pi for other applications anyway, there is no harm in seeing if the thing has any speed advantages.
