[ANN][BURST] Burst | Efficient HDD Mining | New 1.2.3 Fork block 92000

[callmejack]

having fun mining this yet ? 50T useless, one idiot took over your entire network let me see current price.. the 2 digit is not going to happen right away (because you have to have sellers) but it is coming

well.. buyers too , someone will have to take the dump from that one single miner of the entire network, then he/she will do it again and again recycle on your heads as many times as you allow it to happen 

Bullshit.

o yeah ? keep watching I say he/she is also watching this tread and probing "sentiment" and when to perform sell (it will be measured precisely) time/timing is of the essence

speak tomorrow

Tommorow? It takes at least year(maybe 2.3.4...) with 5(I dont know exatly how much is it) PBytes at theese prices to earn only to pay HDDs.(Make a ROI) Unless somebody is using HDDs for free? Thousend(s) of them? I dont think so!

i am monitoring the coin transactions quite well with custom tools.
currently there is less percentage supply transfered to the exchanges than in the first weeks.
there are some accounts transfering on regular base but over 70% simply hold.
selling off the mined coins at current prices is still a nice profit for investors and miners especially if they mine for free.
this situation wont last for long. at a certain point there will be investors forced to pump and then the whole madness begins.
hard to say today how fast the networks grows but there are plenty of pb available for smart miner  

the highest risk for bursts future i see in the fact that it is hard for noobs to mine.
would it be possible to create a browser based plotter and miner in javascript and store the plots in a html5 filesystem?

WHY AM I GETTING THIS ERROR.... I HAVE 24 MB RAM....

i know its poc miner 1 but i cant get anything else to plot

Loold to me like you're using the wrong version of Java...


search "download jre" in google, go to the first selection, then accept the agreement and download for your OS. Install...


Then, try again... if it still doesn't work... change the xmx number to something like Xmx1200m and see if that works.

damn 32 bit auto installer!!! ffs javaessing me about. but wont stagger above 8191? not good. so i tried wplotgenerator and its fubar too. just closes. like so

Code:

Creating plots for nonces 0 to 12000000 (2929 GB) using 2400 MB memory and 7 thr
eads - using AVX codepath
Setting priority class 'below normal'.

E:\burst-pool-miner>pause
Press any key to continue . . .

io have 2400mb of ram plus 4tb hdd with 3.6 spare[/code][/code]


*m8 told me i need amd sdk!!! i think he means java jdk!
hopefully that works

still no good :-/

It seems to me that changing BURST over to a Storj type solution changes it from PoC to PoB - Proof of Bandwidth.  I believe these are two different concepts that should probably stay separate at the core.  To put it in perspective, I have a 65Mbit download and 6Mbit upload broadband connection.  I can tell you that I really do not want to use all of my Upload bandwidth to mine (share hard drive space for actual storage), on top of giving up my precious hard drive space. 

I am not saying that Storj does not make sense (I am actually in on the Early Access of it), but it is a different concept that I do not think needs to be intertwined with the BURST concept completely.

Anyone who says that hard drive mining is no good without being able to actually use the storage to store data, should probably not be mining at all.  Look at Bitcoin/GPU coins/any other coins...none of them are really using their potential or really benefiting anything except mining alone.

Let me know when there is an alt-coin that is GPU only and the GPUs are actually used for massive distributed graphic processing of something useful (CAD drawings, cracking passwords, etc).  Maybe there is one but I guess I am not aware...?  The concept is the same with Hard Drive Mining.

Storj isn't PoB. 

[Zywiec]

Such a feeling. One of the most innovative project since DarkCoin. Can't belive BURST is quite cheap as well. Pretty frustrating.

I have 50TB and i can not even get 12K per day. (No matter the pool i am using)

I ran into a similar problem recently... seems to be corrected when I reboot (verified over three reboots, now.)  I haven't figured out why yet, doesn't seem to be  clockskew or the drives getting  slower the longer the system is up...

dcct-miner on Ubuntu Trusty

I see same thing... used wplotgenerator.exe and blago's miner.  If I don't reboot daily, I can go for days without finding a block with 54TB

set your computer to auto reboot plus run miners on startup.

Hi all, I am having an issue with wplotgenerator, I'm hoping someone is able to provide some advice.

I am plotting with an i7 4770k, I am able to reach 10,000-12,000 nonces/min without overclocking. My issue is that the plotter will start plotting in that range and then start dropping to 5,000 nonces/min, then 3,000 nonces/min, all the way down to around 700 nonces/min. This problem used to only happen once in a while but now I am having to restart the plotter every 20-30 minutes to stay in the 10k nonces/min range.

Has this happened to anyone else? Anyone find a way to keep it stable? I am running windows 8.

Check your HDD.

I have just published Burst.Today version 1.6, and its looking very promising. I have resolved the main issues with setting the reward recipient, and added several features for debugging. This new version points to the updated burstforms pool (burst.ga:8124) , which has been through many changes since I worked on this last.

Unfortunately, I have not had the time to test it out fully, I'm sure there are a few bugs left to chase down. I could really use some feedback on it, if any of you brave souls would be willing to give it a try and give me your thoughts I would be thankful!

Instructions and downloads are at:

Awesome!!

This is exactly the kind of thing we need more of.. not brave enough to risk trying it out myself and risk it overwriting something until it is well established though.

And just in general.. not a fan of closed source when it comes to crypto stuff because I'm worried it might try to steal my passwords.  Maybe I'm paranoid though.

I and others have earlier talked about the possibility of creating community bounties to develop Burst even more (see https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=731923.msg9718639#msg9718639 for this).

My question is: Would anyone contribute to development a cloud-site mining site inspired by ZenMiners (see https://cloud.zenminer.com/signup/invite/0cdc0f6c224fb3c9bf09368b7b5f6326487ab708), where your donation will get you shares of the profits (minus dev-bounty)...? A site where you can buy/sell Burst mining capacity as easily as you today can acquire and sell sha and scrypt GH/MH)?

Please let me hear what you think; PM's is ok too. Also see and respond in the bounty thread at burstforum: https://burstforum.com/index.php?threads/possible-bounties-discussion-and-suggestions.329/

Thanks!

Are your plots optimized?

they were, I wasn't finding any blocks with optimized plots so I undid optimization and used stagger sizes 32768, 57344 and 65536 (different drives) and replotted with wplotter. (win7 64bit)

Right now there's my project (BLTPS) which uses Cloud Mining already and will also start paying investors sooner than expected.
It isn't HDD based, but who knows in the future!?

I think is a little too early to start talking about big investments in cloud infrastructure. I could even build a 1 PB server and start selling shares, but what would happen if, for some reason Burst fails? not only to me or the server, but also to the investors!?
It's not like I'm saying this shouldn't be done or Burst will fail! I'm one of those investing quite a lot, so don't misunderstand me.
I'm just saying that the risks linked to a new coin have to be weighted, that's why I've started with something on a small scale, able to scale up easily and "mutable" like BLTPS project is.

As far as the "site" way of distributing and promoting the initiative, let's just say that, concerning BLTPS, I'll be developing more features as the project scales up but right now I'm fine the way it is, because it is also showing an alternative ways of using the Asset Exchange embedded in Burst.

I can't get this working I have a weird error that pops up when I try to run the pocminer.

Error: Registry key 'Software\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment'\CurrentVersion'

I found the problem tho you have to have Java 7 to make this work it doesn't look
like its compatible with the newest Java 8 yet.

C:\Windows\SysWOW64\java -Xmx1000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate MyAddress

What am I doing wrong this is not working?

Are you getting any kind of error? What OS are you running. And do you have Java 7 installed? I had problems running Burst software with Java 8.

[cptfisher]

plotting uses ram . try

1) not to run anything while plotting

2) check ram consumption and core consumption ( if some software uses cores they slow down wplot)

[bobafett]

try -Xmx750m instead of -Xmx1000m

This helped me.
