[ANN][SHC] ShinyCoin █First ever RAMHOG algo Pow/Pos █NO ASIC/GPU | Whitepaper

[Bleeckerpub]

Pretty cool stuff.  Nice to see a mining algo that doesn't give guys with Riga all the coins.  Is there a mining pool setup for this?

[jiuge]

Compile on Linux with qt4:

Code:

[sup]ram_options -lboost_thread -lQtGui -lQtCore -lpthread 
build/bitcoinrpc.o: In function `_GLOBAL__sub_I_pMiningKey':
bitcoinrpc.cpp:(.text.startup+0x352): undefined reference to `getrawmempool(std::vector<json_spirit::Value_impl<json_spirit::Config_vector<std::string> >, std::allocator<json_spirit::Value_impl<json_spirit::Config_vector<std::string> > > > const&, bool)'
bitcoinrpc.cpp:(.text.startup+0x436): undefined reference to `getrawtransaction(std::vector<json_spirit::Value_impl<json_spirit::Config_vector<std::string> >, std::allocator<json_spirit::Value_impl<json_spirit::Config_vector<std::string> > > > const&, bool)'
bitcoinrpc.cpp:(.text.startup+0x45c): undefined reference to `sendrawtransaction(std::vector<json_spirit::Value_impl<json_spirit::Config_vector<std::string> >, std::allocator<json_spirit::Value_impl<json_spirit::Config_vector<std::string> > > > const&, bool)'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [shinycoin-qt] Error 1[/sup]

What's wrong with it?

Someone is working on that, it should be up within a week or so.

I forgot to update the qt makefile.  I just pushed the fix, do a git pull and try it again.

lol damn internet doesn't forget my failure at the english language.

also, what the shit happened to 1.6 GB of ram required? 15 just pretty well shot this in the ass again.

Yes, you are right, 15GB is too much, one need to have at least 3 sticks of 8 GB to mine
1.6, or even as high as 8GB is good.

15 GB wasn't a random value chosen, if someone wants to mine with their computer which has 16 GB, the OS alone takes less than 1 GB and can mine.  For botnetters -- it would generally require a computer with more than 16 GB RAM because the victim's computers have stuff running on them and only 16 GB RAM wouldn't be enough.  There aren't many botnetted computers with more than 16 GB RAM.

What algorithm coin?

do we need 16 gb ram to run the wallet? or is 16 gb only if we are mining?

[Bleeckerpub]

What algorithm coin?

Your grammar is quite suspect so I'm hoping English is your second language.  The coin seems to have a new algorithm called ramhog.  If you speak English why don't you read the whitepaper.

[sunnyprince]

do we need 16 gb ram to run the wallet? or is 16 gb only if we are mining?

For both, but there will be a block explorer and web wallet posted sometime today or tomorrow which will work without the RAM requirements.  The RAM requirements were quite necessary to keep the botnets and specialized hardware from mining.

I think there are something wrong with the souce code:
After the compile I get the qt client,but when I start to run it.
I get

Code:

error loading blkindex.dat 

do you know why?
Before I get a error:

Code:

.obj/sqlite3.o: undefined reference to symbol 'dlclose@@GLIBC_2.2.5

and edit the shiny-qt.pro add one line:

Code:

LIBS += -ldl

Can this coin compile as smooth as others?

I, too, have other stuff running on my computer... make it 8gb would be better.
Right know it means I have to shut down everything to run a program only suitable for amazon EC2 (I quote Christian Buchner)
That's kind of silly.
So may-be you will get rid of botnet, but in the mean time you make it impossible to run for people using their cpu for other task (I am pretty sure this include GPU miners)

So technically this is reserved to even more specialised computers... (and won't run on many windows install)

At least you won't get any complaint while people try to run it as any web explorer use large amounts of memory

Instead of paying amazon to rent servers you can just buy a cheap ram stick to add 2gb to your computer if you have 16gb already

no I can't, I need to buy 32gb, I have only 4 slots and they are all used (or at least 8gb, if I wouldn't care of having different memory type on the same board). No matter what it will be difficult 5 min before the launch...
And once all the amazon machine will be running it will be too late.

[djm34]

ok best move is dev having a reality check and relaunch with more humble memory requirement.

[BTMan]

need a pool for this~~

[djm34]

I wanted to try to crash my computer, but I see there isn't any windows binaries  

[BigWait]

I wanted to try to crash my computer, but I see there isn't any windows binaries  

Me too
Where is windows wallet?
Ram is not the matter
the matter is have not windows wallet

[sunnyprince]

I have just released the config file with the genesis block and the initial nodes.  The coin is now LAUNCHED.  I will add nodes to the config file as more people connect.  Good luck everybody!

[sting]

windows wallet?

[prix]

Where is the windows binaries?
You promised it in previous version OP of this thread.
