[ANN][XCN] Cryptonite | 1st mini-blockchain coin | M7 PoW | No Premine

I had this same crash just overnight, but it was the 1st time for me. Sucks as I was solo mining, so that's that. 
In my case, all was fine by simply opening up the wallet again. It just sync'ed, is up-to-date, mining again, no issues at all.

As infrequent as such issues might be, they are critical in nature.
Bitfreak, Catia, if you've been looking into this, any progress?
Thanks for any update guys. Cheers!

The big problem is reproducing the bugs. I have several nodes running that believe it or not have not crashed since launch. The assertion looks bad, but is not enough info. If somebody is willing to post logs and any terminal output it might help. There might be some private info in the logs and maybe we need an anonymizer for them. The easiest way to fix these things is to first get a volunteer who is able to reproduce problem easily and is willing to run test builds. Then we can work on locating problem and dealing with it.

It's my belief that QT is responsible for all things wrong in the universe and moving people to the php based gui is the way to go. This probably needs some polishing as far as install and maybe status things like sync progress.

Anyone know what happened to the mining pool theblocksfactory.com ?

Been mining XCN there and they just vanished with some XCN I might add.

The RAID in their server broke, twice I think.

Is there any bounty on an open source pool (coinium/getblocktemplate/ xnonce, xnonce2 in msg)?

Possibly an official pool? Perhaps me/wolf0/xcn for 0.5%/0.5%/1%?

Btw transaction id (for hash) has a slight bug. Msg length is written twice (0808). Not a problem just something that should be noted.

Granted, it's not much. My holdings are too small to warrant a donation (at least for now)...
Cheers!

Why is 1GH pool listed first on ANN

They have around 90% of the network hashrate. Shouldn't they be listed last with giant red letters saying "Please mine anywhere but here"?

They are simply listed in the order they were created, gives a bit of incentive for new services to get in early.

That's quite a laissez-faire attitude to take. Isn't it possible that if that one pool was compromised they could wreak havoc on the blockchain? Is XCN not susceptible to double-spends or 51% attacks? Or even if someone just ddos'ed 1GH pool, then they could attempt double spends with relatively small hashrate?

I mean, I guess market cap isn't even in the top 100, so maybe it's not worth worrying about. Just kind of surprising to see no fucks given about one pool owning 90% of hashrate.

I doubt it has 90% of the hash rate just because it's at the top of a list, it's pretty hard to miss the other pools just under it. I'm guessing the real reason has more to do with the fact that 1GH is the most widely supported pool in GPU miners.

hmm noone mining at Suprnova .. sad

hmm noone mining at Suprnova .. sad

I was the last pool...  That's just how it is..  Miners dont switch later on

Just saw that other 2 pools have about 10 miners in count, and everyone else is mining at 1GH. Lol..

Whatever the reason I wasn't exaggerating when I said 90%:

1GH - 9975 Mh/s
TheBlocksFactor - 15 Mh/s
NoncePool - 192 Mh/s
Supernove - 0 Mh/s

TheBlocksFactory shows the network hashrate at 9710 Mh/s, so apparently 1 GH is over 100% of the network hashrate
I understand it's just a guesstimate based on diff, but clearly over 90%, probably over 95%.

How many coins would you get in a day on a single 280x?

[lucazane]

theblocksfactory just got a big downtime due to hardware issue : lost >80 % of miners on the xcn pool

@jwinterm: Please consider some solo miners for those stats if you will (myself is one)
Cheers!

TheBlockFactory estimate of network hashrate should include solo miners, myagui, it's just based on network difficulty (I assume).

good news! price reflecting it

correct. But the difficulty can take hours to adjust if significant hashrate come or leave the network
