[ANN][ELT] Electron, Blake-256 coin, merged mined

[ddeaNewtOn]

volume is soo low man... How long are we allowed to be on bittrex?
Regardless, do we have a place to communicate and interact with one another other than BTCtalk? seems like no community or development here.. PLease correct me if I'm wrong...

There are a couple things in the works. Stay tuned.
Would people prefer a separate forum?  I am cool with using this forum and CCT as the main forums.

Vanitygen for electron

Continuing from the blakecoin thread ...

Ok, thanks kramble.  Electron should be almost the same as blakecoin, except with using 92 as the address starting instead of 26 for BLC. The hashing part was untouched.

OK, it should just work using ./vanitygen -F compressed -X 92 pattern (using my hacked version at https://github.com/kramble/FPGA-Blakecoin-Miner/tree/master/vanitygen) EDIT: No it won't work as is, since the blake checksum is only applied to -X 26. You'll need to change util.c (see the previous commit for the file), around line 129. EDIT2: Also vanitygen.c line 397 may need changing. So I've got three variants of the code to check, need to compile an electron wallet first (2 hour job on raspi, quicker on ubuntu, once I sort out a VM for it). EDIT3: That took longer than I expected. Yes, both changes are needed, I'll take this onto your thread now as it's OT here.

Give it a try (check if the electron wallet will import the private key, and that the resulting address is the same as the one generated). Also try sending some coin to the addresss, then import the private key (into an empty wallet) and try spending the coin.

Mogrith: Doing a paper wallet (like bitaddress.org) is beyond my skill set, but a competent web/javascript developer should be able to do it easily. It just needs a javascript version of blake256, 8 round variant (which is the slightly tricky bit) to do the custom checksum.

I've tested this using the electrond daemon on unbuntu 12.04 (not tested sending any coin yet I have tasted my own dogfood and it's yummy ELT to eKram and eKram to eCoin)

You need to start with my hacked version of vanitygen from https://github.com/kramble/FPGA-Blakecoin-Miner/tree/master/vanitygen

You will need to compile it yourself (works ok on raspi and ubuntu, not tested on windows), but first edit two files:
util.c line 129, change if (blake_flag == 26) to if (1)
vanitygen.c line 397, change if (addrtype == 26) to if (1)
make vanitygen (OK on ubuntu, but raspi needs the top line of Makefile editing to remove -march=native)

Now run it
./vanitygen -F compressed -X 92 eCoin

And annoyingly, it works fine on raspi but takes a while to get going on ubuntu. Perhaps because I ran it in a VM?

As a side issue, you need to make a couple of changes in your git repo to fix the daemon build
mkdir src/obj
chmod +x src/leveldb/build_detect_platform

There are a couple things in the works. Stay tuned.

What things? You're buying the coin on every exchange at 1500 sats while keeping your activity secret. This is the definition of a ninja launch.

Thanks Kramble, I will give the vangen a try.
For github, I am using the windows client and it annoyingly won't let me make an src/obj directory. I will try to make it on Ubuntu. 
May I send some ELT your way as a token of appreciation?

Sorry, I though I was pretty public about what I am working on. They are listed in the op.  Current projects are the website, online wallet, and twitter tipbot.  I am doing my best to support ELT prices with my own BTCs.  If people would prefer I don't do it, I'd be happy not to. I have given away over 20,000 ELTs. 

[electron-coin]

Hi, Electron Dev.
How are you?
Spirit for you. Go the moon!!
I hope Electron can return the coin to the top market position in Bittrex.
Also I hope you can apply your coin on Poloniex.
Good Luck !! Good job!!
Thank you

Put in a request to be listed on Poloniex.  Will keep everybody posted when the voting starts.

[CrowdWhale]

Why would Poloniex list it? Bittrex was going to ditch it until people (including myself) asked them not to. Now I'm several BTC in the hole and wondering how I could be such an idiot. You think Bittrex is going to keep this coin listed with no volume?

I'm not a github expert either, am using windows client myself. BlueDragon may be able to help though. Or just put a note in the README (most users don't bother with the daemon I expect).

All donations are gratefully received. Might as well use eKramgtvXd45wgW3HYNCtUyPm5uqTXzHyz (eating my own dogfood   )

Can this be merged mined with all of the other blakecoins?

Yes.

I am trying to find a compiled miner for NVidia and CGMiner keeps crashing when I try to run it on my Radeon HD5850?

[Grifftech2k4]

Now I am getting rejected H-Not-Zero error on Cgminer

[chiguireitor]

@Grifftech2k4 use the cgminer, no sense using cudaminer yet because it hasn't been optimized yet...

I nother news, i'm almost done with the Unity script for crypto IAPs which will include all the blake ecosystem... will begin publicly beta testing soon...

Are you mining on one of the merged pools?

[moffer5]

Worry on how long will Bittrex keep this coin with current low volume?

I guess a coin on there has to have low volume for over a month before they start thinking about delisting it.

[qiwoman2]

I am sure as more and more peeps become aware of ELECTRON Coin they will start to trade it. I notice sometimes coins lay low and then bang they explode, so if ELECTRON is sleeping for a bit maybe that's a good sign because it gives many of us the chance to pick up some at low prices.

Nice!  2000 ELT going to eKram.  Thanks for all of your contributions.

quick fix for adding empty folder to github is to put a blank .txt file in the /src/obj folder it should add the blank file and the folder


Edit:
Note to anyone who gets (H-not-zero) errors with cgminer *You are using the wrong cgminer version use 3.1.1(default) http://www.blakecoin.org/cgminer-alt-pool-ny.7z just edit cgminer.conf with your details then run cgminer.exe
or
read the "Getting Started" page on pools
