Jeez... I agree that Burst is a winner but only technology-wise. It's innovative as no other coin. Great.

But we have had a little price crash...? You're lying if you saying the "crash" is from 100 to 30sat. There is a very steady downward-trend since the pump to +200sat back in February. In that perspective, a majority of miners have stayed extremely loyal. I'm convinced they are loyal due to the basic technological breakthroughs that Burst has, coupled with the low cost of mining, hoping something magical will happen. Like the coin will be magical discovered by the masses after 15 months since launch.

That won't happened, coz Burst is just as big of a failure when it comes the utility, current and coming development, and PR, as it is a winner when it comes to innovation and technology.

Greed..., yup, perhaps, but greed is good. Read Douglas' monologue from the movie and you understand what I mean. Greed drives people like pure technology does not.

That said, I do think that a clone with a different emission rate will be more successful, but I'm quite pessimistic to whether only changing the emission rate is enough as incentive to make a star out of PoC/AT/ACCT/etc. A clone would have a way better chance to be successful if it's backed by some serious investors from the get-go, enabling to pay for developers and PR, or developmental collaboration with a coin as Sia.

But perhaps I'm wrong, perhaps a different emission rate will suffice. I'd say "let's see". And let's see what will happen to Burst with competition out there.



I agree with you all the way, except i think we should leave the burst inflation as it was designed.

also agree the "crash" can be seen different depending on when you set the top. what i meant was probably something along the lines of "recent crash".

quotation clip clip from prior post by some scared and frustrated dude, o no.. I lost 3 satoshi,

Quote

I invested 200k BURST a month ago. Today I sold all of it! (bought at 0.00000032 sold at 0.00000029).
...
...

you sold it way too quick, common mistake, if 3 satoshi of the difference make a difference to you, Today I believe it is double,, my advice is mine it and stash it, it could be that they are forces out there trying to hold a crypto down via psyops etc dont get caught empty handed

BURST could be a billion dollar cap in the future, because it consumes almost no electricity and that is huge

potential upgrades could be in some kind of interest bearing technology like POS, and maybe like VPNCoin does with local VPN transfer (find it both funny and dangerous but very innovative) but different here, reselling encrypted distributed storage but for that one needs serious development but all feasible

this is me q327K091, your own hero member , I do go stealth sometimes

A couple of things on my mind today.
Plots don't last and it is really difficult to keep replacing corrupted ones let alone find it. Jminer at least that one did tell you however Blagos is what I use right now and needs to tell you. Corrupted plots might be because it is a usb drive with the internal drives. ( I will go back to Jminer as it was working before and need to see why. )
 
I see now that somethings are fixed the latest issue with new miners are the plots.
I wish there was a universal plot that can be copied around. Easier way to Add in the account information since sometimes we need to change addresses. What file format is this plot, can I open it up and edit the contents?


Instead of changing the award system how about the pools change the language about finding blocks and halving our awards etc. I'm tired of reaching 2000+ and getting it halved all the time. Can some one explain why it can't be a flat fee  only?
We need more interest in this coin so it might start with the pools allowing more of the funds to go to the miner. increase or tack on more fees like a tax to go toward crowd funding, assets etc.

What happened to the multipool?

What happened to the plot fixing program?

Can we get a vote to see which miner everyone uses?

Why does a pool I tried need to charge me for a how to guide. I thought these guides are created to help the miners to mine? They were good you know.
Yes at least Crowetics and others is free thankyou.

Plots shouldn't be getting corrupted - they're read only, but I could see a USB Thumbdrive getting stressed.

No, the contents of plot files are created based on your burst address and the nonce number, they're totally unique to your address.

I'm not sure I understand? What pool are you mining on? You might want to try burst.ninja, totally transparent and very fair payout system, and a flat low percentage of earnings as fee.

Seagate have a horrible reputation, I'fve had three die under normal operation - not mining on them - mining may have accelerated your drive's death, but it was terminal to begin with ... ;-)

Drawing conclusions based - or perhaps exemplified? - by your own experience of HDDs, seems like a statistical nightmare, dear H, even if one happens to be right.

Just adding to above - For me is not the brand too important. I generally go with the cheapest one, if I have decent back-solutions and there are no problem to RMA. With Seagate, the RMA has never been a problem.

This is an extremely useful review and BURST miners can use this to improve their mining efficiency, by lowering their mining expenses that are a result of failing hard drives.

This link should be put on the BURST website to help miners.

I'm running quite a few Seagate 4 and 5 TB external drives, been running quite a while without issue.

I bought them because the price was right  Cool. As far as I can tell BURST has done zero damage to them.


Everything is still running exactly the way it should be.

The same thing here. I have a Samsung M3 1 TB (yeah, not so much...) external drive and he is still working like a charm after near 1 year of mining with at least 3 hours a day.

I bought recently four 8TB HDD of Segate. One was broken directly, one has displayed an error after about four weeks in RAID.
Two and a exchanged run until now well so far.

The 8TBs, were they the "archive" model or the later released "desktop" version? I heard that the first one have had massive problems for regular pc usage.


Kinda funny with all this knowledge of HDDs we gathered after almost 15 months Wink

BTW, every time I disassemble an old laptop (manufactured like from 2000-2005) 9 out of 10 times, they have Hitachi HDDs. And God dammit, I'm still to find a malfunctional Hitachi after all those years since creating them. Too bad they are too small to mine with  Cheesy

The BURST price can really use a pump now, the price is pretty low and it won't stay this low for long time because after we will get more projects on the start, it will start to rush up.

Any plans to promote BURST? I got one if anybody is interested, and it doesn't cost anybody anything.
