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

[muhrohmat]

hi there i have a question is there other coin like burst for HDD mining like the storage coin or soo just curiouse burst coin gives per TB like 10 cents per day and never costs more than 1 Cent per day the Watts its a 9 cents per day profit is ther a another alt coin as good as burst in hdd mining?

[xiaogr]

question.

i just solved block 86845 (according to my wallet) with dl 11m 50 sec
according to block info someone else with 14min

what is wrong?

EDIT: Now the solved block disapeared from my wallet

Hello BURST community !!

Can anyone please guide me on how to create a custom burn address?

Will appreciate your kind help.

http://wiki.burstcoin.de/index.php?title=FAQ

If vandalay really meant a burn address this would not help completely, as he would have access to it.
Well, at least I would not trust a burn address like that, just send coins to genesis acc

Can you please elaborate on the genesis account?
I know it exists for NXT as well

how is it provably unspendable?
and what is the public key of the BURST gen account?

You guys are sure it works in Burst as well?  I could see burstdev having removed it and it just being a regular account.. which has a known password.

You should probably test it by sending a couple Burst there before using it as a Burn address.

Genesis address is BURST-NU58-Z4QR-XXKE-94DHH
It's pubkey is 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

really anything that entirely has numeric meaning(unlikely to have a pubkey found by chance would work)

iirc account 0 is BURST-2222-2222-2222-22222, so that works nicely also.

unlike NXT or HZ (clone of NXT), BURST genesis account doesn't have a negative balance.
with negative balance, you have an easy proof of burning coins.

So how can one use BURST genesis account to burn coins?

So how can one use BURST genesis account to burn coins?

This is due to the fact that both HZ and NXT are 100% premined. Their genesis accounts started out with a balance of 0, therefore when they sent out the premine coins the accounts ended up with negative balances. IIRC NXT is hardcoded to reject transactions coming from accounts with negative balances so this provides an effective way of burning even if the passphrases to access them are known.

As both mczarnek and the dev pointed out, anything that is sufficiently unlikely to have a key found can dub as a burn address in BURST (maybe not for the extremely paranoid ).
I apologize for thinking of the genesis account first, as you might argue it does not perform the function as well as it does in other 'NXT' coins. During one discussion the dev mentioned destroying assets by sending them to the genesis account, so I thought it performs the same function as in other 'NXT' coins.

This mistake of mine illustrates my initial point to some extent though . I would not send my coins to a randomly looking account someone posts in this thread (or anywhere else) and claims 'This is a burn address'. Always approach posts with a healthy dose of caution

you forget that if the public key is not published by a own transaction from it it only has 64 bit options to gain access to.
since the pk is unknown at the beginning there wont be any option to do such a transaction.
but my compute farm is waiting for such a address if someone wants to establish a burn address this way  (want to test some code)

[xizmax]

Yes, however perhaps NXT account miner illustrates that so far it would be an inefficient use of your farm (even if it is only 64bits). I will selfishly hope that BURST becomes worthy of such a use

hi guys!!!!

it is possible to get some stats about the last months of lottery resuts???

thanks

The following press release has been sent out to about 250 crypto community members; we didn't use any paid service for this as the news worthiness can be disputed.

The last sentence in the following letter is, however, important:

In addition, further research is pursued, which will make BURST MARKET even more attractive, with the objective of creating one combined, huge market for all AT/ACCT implemented coins.

Still getting this problem. I reverted to 319 for the time being.

Weird enough, even though I wasn't hashing faster on 401, I was finding a LOT more blocks. Maybe just coincidence, but it seems as though there is a bug in the current version (319) that severely hampers my ability to find blocks. I've been mining on a pool for some time now, so it doesn't really affect me, but I'm sure doesn't help the pool I'm supposed to be 'contributing' to.

12 days w/o crashes for me... using 401

Try setup "ShowWinner" : false

Still happening with winner being false.

If I remember correctly, on burstforum he said that he replaced the motherboard.   

So yea, I really don't think he or his so called "team" is capable of handling anything. But I do hope he proves me wrong.

So how is that relevant? Never mind. I do not want to get sucked into this vortex. Forget I asked!

I was using memclean false on all my machines to begin with. I am running them as admin though.

[CIYAM]

The bug is most likely something like the following:

vector< int > v;

v.push_back( 1 );
v.push_back( 2 );

int x = v[ 2 ]; // oops - bad

(as only v[ 0 ] and v[ 1 ] would be valid)

So somewhere the code has made a mistake about the size of a vector and tried to read (at least) one record beyond the end of its valid range.

It may help for the dev to change the code to use v.get( X ) rather than v[ X ] (if they aren't doing this already) to perhaps get better exception info but basically they need to find why they are trying to read outside of the valid range of the container.

One starting point might be to make sure all loops upon vectors look like this:
for( vector< int >::iterator i = 0; i < v.size( ); ++i )

rather than this:
for( vector< int >::iterator i = 0; i <= v.size( ); ++i )

(but that is only one such example of where this kind of mistake could have been made)
