If you donate to this, I will do one donation for each of the donors.

[IncludeBeer]

There are sites with free press releases, but some charge quite a bit. Devs, if you post a BTC address, you could try getting money for the promotion.

BURST Windows GUI Wallet/plotter/miner Setup.exe is now released!!!

We hope you all enjoy the ease-of-use that is now BURST and Windows!

I haven't been here for a while, but like the new GUI setup. Only suggestion, maybe make a solo mining option and the ability to use the gpu plotter. Also, I notice that burstcoin hasn't been online for a while, why don't y'all just take it over. I understand he has a life and what not or maybe having a personal issue at the moment, but that shouldn't stop the progress of this coin. Wasn't there an original plan to link this coin to SuperNET or something similar?

Keep up the good work and I appreciate it, sure the community does too....

Thanks. Those things are all planned for future releases.

We will not let the development on the coin stop, if we deem a takeover necessary, that will be what will happen. Thanks for the comments!

Also, how about getting some people to go to some of the crypto conferences for PR?

Since the GPU miner is out, are HDD's now a bottleneck? How much more power consumption does the GPU miner compare to the Blago miner or other miners?

Absolutely @ conferences, anything near me in the West side of the US, I would go absolutely.

Please feel free to post any announcements on these types of things, and we'll keep our eyes open as well.


Honestly, based on my usage of the GPU miner, I'm thinking it is going to be even more efficient than CPU since it doesn't have to work as hard to read the plots faster.

We're heading in the right direction as far as the GUI and GPU mining capabilities.


This coin is still destined for greatness, even if it takes longer than we thought, no big deal!

I still have plenty of other ideas we can make happen even without any changes to the main code, the coin already has so much stuff we can make use of.


I don't think the main dev has disappeared either, he mentioned needing some time for something, and I'm gonna let him have it, he deserves it for all the work he did getting BURST to existence!


But the community need not worry, we still have a dedicated core of people that will not let the coin disappear, and we're always on the lookout for more people who are willing to get involved, and help in any way possible, be it development, PR, or whatever else! So yea, BURST isn't going anywhere!

Edit: That first one was in the PR template given to me, I didn't even notice it. The second was a total typo. Much appreciated.

[Blago]

....
 How much more power consumption does the GPU miner compare to the Blago miner or other miners?

AMD FX-6300, RAM 16 Gb, 11 SATA + 1 USB disks (~ 18,4 Tb).

Rig started - 217 W,
Windows loaded, idle - 188 W,
Blago's CPU miner - 218 W (44 sec),
Luxe's GPU miner - 240-255 W  (ASUS HD 7850, 21 sec),
Luxe's GPU miner - 291-302 W  (ASUS R9 280x, 20.6 sec).

Mining Burst will push efficient GPUs for reading operation.
To explain newcomers: We haven't switched to CPU or GPU mining. It's about reading your plotted HDDs - it's possible with CPU or GPU. The bottleneck will be always the amount of HDD (hashing power) you can bring in.

To donate BURST is great, but unusable at the moment - should they sell BURST to get the needed. They will need some BTC. Or should crowetic do the work AND pay for services need out of his own pocket?

Don't you ever complain about the lack of promotion or on the price on exchanges if you wont contributed with same satoshis!

Don't you ever complain about the lack of promotion or on the price on exchanges if you wont contributed with same satoshis!

 

This continues to be one of the main issues. The community loves to tell us what to do, and for some reason thinks that we're sitting on a ton of cash...

BURST was not premined, had no IPO, and was done out of the dev's desire to release a coin in the fashion everyone always says they want...

BUT... if you look at other coins that WERE premined, or DID have IPO, they seem to be what? MORE WELL KNOWN! You know why? BECAUSE THEY HAD MONEY!

None of us on the core team get paid for doing anything we do. We are doing it becuase we SUPPORT THE COIN, and we want it to SUCCEED.

We were just community members in the beginning, and we joined the team because we thought we could get some structure behind the coin to help with all the necessary items of work.


WE CONSTANTLY ENCOURAGE PEOPLE to contact us, give us ideas, do your OWN ideas, promote the coin on your own, etc etc...

but sadly, hardly anyone does.


Sitting here and waiting for US to make YOU rich, isn't going to work. In order for a coin to be successful, people have to go out and TALK ABOUT IT! USE IT! TELL PEOPLE WHAT IT CAN DO! MAKE SERVICES THAT USE IT!

There are so many things the community can do...


But sitting there doing nothing, and not even being willing to contribute to the promotion and development financially, all while waiting to become rich from other people's work (that are working for FREE, for YOU) just is a really shitty way of doing things.

But this, alas, is what we're dealing with in the BURST community, for some reason. Everyone thinks they can just mine and hold and sit there and do nothing, and everything will happen magically. (or by my hands?)

I can only do so much, and I have a company to run, and a day job (because I need money and working solely for BURST simply isn't an option right now, as we all know.) So expecting me to make you rich is a pipe dream, unless you're thinking maybe in years from now, once a single person can dedicate enough.


Sorry, I had to get this off my chest.
