[ANN][Ƀ][BBTC] BlakeBitcoin | Blake-256 | GPU| Merged Mined | 21Mil | No Premine

[BlakeBitcoin]

Is a potential coin with application of the currency, the more people know is very good!

Still easy to mine difficulty catching up everyday

Blake 256 cannot be mined with asic's that are for sha 256d

you can use a cpu

https://github.com/BlueDragon747/cpuminer    http://blakecoin.org/Blakecoin_Minerd.7z (not recommended) settings for ny merge pool example

minerd --url stratum+tcp://ny2.blakecoin.com:3334  --userpass username:password -t 4 -a blake -s 1

would run 4 cores.......

use a gpu https://github.com/kR105/cgminer-alt

http://www.blakecoin.org/cgminer-alt-pool-photon1.7z

sample conf file.....

{
"pools" : [
   {
      "url" : "stratum+tcp://ny2.blakecoin.com:3334",
      "user" : "your user name in the pooll",
      "pass" : "pool password"
   }
],

"intensity" : "11",
"auto-gpu" : true,
"expiry" : "120",
"failover-only" : true,
"gpu-threads" : "1",
"log" : "5",
"no-restart" : true,
"queue" : "3",
"scan-time" : "30",
"worksize" : "256",
"temp-hysteresis" : "4",
"blake256" : true,
"vectors" : "1",
"hotplug" : "0"
"no-submit-stale": true,
"kernel-path" : "/"
"rpcport" : "8984"
}


for best performance on gpu i recommend low memory and high engine clock speed, (use bitcoin similar settings for your card not litecoin settings)

if you have fpga boards see this brilliant work here

https://github.com/kramble/FPGA-Blakecoin-Miner  and check the Blake Coin thread for how to reprogram/configure.....

No asic's exist to mine blake 256 ......yet..... they would be possible to construct ......


I am mining in the new york merged pool , Blake Coin , Photon and BlakeBitcoin all at the same time ...... other coins are in development that will be merge mined also...... in the near future.....

I apologize for the extremely noob question but I'm very new to mining.
I have a 5200 kh/s gridseed blade asic miner, can I mine this coin? if so which pool would you recommend, if not could someone please help guide me to some info on what I need to start mining this.
thank you very much in advance.

thanks for your quick and thorough response. As I do not yet have the supplies necessary to mine this coin I can't mine it at the moment. I would like to set myself up to mine this as soon as possible and would like to get the best equipment (best value for performance) available.
what equipment do you recommend that I get to set myself up to mine this?
could you list everything I'd need including cables and power supplies.
I will happily tip you for your help.
thank you in advance.

As has been said, you can currently mine with CPU, GPU or FGPA.  The difficulty is now such that it probably rules out CPU now or in the very near future.  I know little of FGPA's other than that they are more power efficient than GPU's, I suspect they probably need a lot more time/knowledge to set up too?

If you want to build a GPU rig, there is an excellent guide here; http://www.cryptobadger.com/build-your-own-litecoin-mining-rig/.  I built a GPU rig following this guide with 2xRadeon R9 290's and 1xRadeon R9 270X.  Currently mining B+ solo, the 290's are doing 3.2GH/s each and the 270X half that.

i have a rig of 3 x R9-280x  so far only mined using pools, how do you set it up to solo mine please?

If your blakebitcoin.conf is like the reference in OP

Code:

listen=1
maxconnections=180
rpctimeout=30
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=243
rpcuser=youruser
rpcpassword=yourpass
addnode=146.185.135.24
addnode=162.243.14.130
addnode=188.226.213.85
addnode=107.170.140.27

Then for solo your cgminer.conf will look like this

Code:

{
"pools" : [
	{
		"url" : "127.0.0.1:243",
		"user" : "youruser",
		"pass" : "yourpass"
	}
],

"intensity" : "9",
"auto-gpu" : true,
"expiry" : "120",
"failover-only" : true,
"gpu-threads" : "2",
"log" : "5",
"no-restart" : true,
"queue" : "3",
"scan-time" : "30",
"worksize" : "128",
"temp-hysteresis" : "4",
"blake256" : true,
"vectors" : "1",
"no-submit-stale": false,
"kernel-path" : "/"
}

Hope that helps  


Edit:
you can tweak the expiry and scan-time lower for solo as you will have less latency between the miner and your wallet compared with a pool, just remember to set them back before going back to pool mining as you will get more issues

Wow, the diff is up there.  Must be some serious mining going on.   Any news on when it'll be added to an exchange?

Watching these with interest! What does the Dev have in store? Any aims/plans?

Working on website and block explorer, waiting to hear from Byron at Atomic-Trade when B+ will be added to the exchange

Nothing better than a decent dev with some decent aims!

dev. is great
algo is awesome! (best out in my opinion)
merge mining is great

whats not to like?

More coins to come most of the devs are helping each other out this is only the start of the fun

can we make our own dirac wallet from the source before actual launch?

[BlueDragon747]

can we make our own dirac wallet from the source before actual launch?

I dont think that would be possible as soon as the wallet code is released you can start mining so would end in a premine if you released code before the launch, Dirac uses kgw so it will not have same issue as B+

[BitcoinForumator]

When Dirac launches is it going to be added automatically to the merged pool? No need to re-start the miner and it's going to be mined from the get-go?

(merge mining FTW)

yeah will be added as soon as Bryce sends me code/wallet there will be a small ~30 mins or less interruption while I enable it but thats it no change to the miner apart from more coins

thanks.  I didn't have any issues with B+

do we happen to know when dirac will release this weekend? I want to get right on it but im going to be afk for half the weekend. sorry to sort of skew the subject slightly. i promise no more dirac questions in this thread lol

[BlueDragon747]

no news from Bryce about release yet, and if you are not about you will still get a share of what the pool finds

on the merge pool im trying to do a manual payment to B+ and it shows i have a payment address inputed, it shows my address under the payout but when i try to submit it says "you have no payout address set."  Not sure if this is a bug or if you have manual payments disabled or something but you asked for bug reports.

using chrome here and it is working might be a bug will look into it, manual payouts are risky for me to allow I have changed the code to avoid a double payout on old pool code where a bad user could fool the system into doing a AP+MP payout while DDoSing but I think it should be patched for that now although any issue will disable manual payouts again to avoid having to fund the pool with my personal coins, if you could tell me which browser you using and double check after refreshing page that would be great, sometimes there is a small bug with tokens just refresh and try again

Thanks for reporting

okay, ill just enable auto payouts then. It doesn't matter to me I just hadn't set them yet.  I'm also using chrome (Version 34.0.1847.137 m) and have refreshed several times.

How can i mine this with rented rigs?
