daWallet,

I just emailed you, and I really, really hope we can close this deal! Get back to me as soon as possible. 

[m3ta]

how about my fixes to the blago miner?  those were no good, right? it magically worked better with all the memory corruption, you'd have everybody think

No doubt we all appreciate those, but the fact that you are so unkind to Blago, who has done nothing but good stuff, is uncalled for, and, on top of ur troll behavior, it makes everything think of u as a cock, instead of appreciating ur contributions. There is nothing u can do, apart from apologizing and being helpful, else everyone will hate u, and no one will implement ur contributions(i'm sure ur smart, and that u could really help burst), but rather shrug them off as being spam.

hold on a second there, let's ask blago if he thought i was unkind. i was unkind to some of you, yes, i can't deny that, but then not all of you were so kind to me either.
of course i appreciate your contributions, you made all those sites for instance, right? i truly appreciate that.
never really got in any fight with the devs.
but with cocksuckers like coinints of course i get aggravated.

EDIT: so deal with it, I have 1PB I will soon have more, like it or not. You can't just tell me what's right and what's wrong. Keep an open mind, and you will see that I'm not such a bad guy. I consider myself to be a fair person. This means not only that I am a good guy to whom I deem worthy of it, but I am also a bad guy to those who ask for it.
As with blago, I was just pulling his leg. I'm sure he got it, just ask him. For instance, he thought of mentioning me on his github page. If he really thought I was mean, I bet he wouldn't.

It was funny really, I post the code, then all the idiots say "blago miner is the best", bitladen you islamic troll, go away, we know better.
next day comes blago with the laden fixes.
nobody apologizes. then why should i?  all I got from idiots were insults. idiots on the other hand got my insults, and my *bugfixes*, I think they have to come out and apologize first

as for you, you caught yourself in the crossfire today, I don't know why, you know I'm right and coinints is wrong. why take his side? but it's your choice, don't blame me

In any organised society, not only WHAT you say is important, but also HOW you say it.
And in those regards, you're nothing more than anti-social scum.
You might have valid arguments, but the way you expose them just shows a narcissistic personality that will not be tolerated.

[vaxman]

My api does all that, and includes bittrex / ccex

Good! I'm just letting everyone know how to do it, maybe we'll see some creative analysis of the data

thanks for the snippet, much appreciated !

[bensam1231]

Guys stop commenting on Bitladen, let him burn out. He strikes me as the type to just dump all his coins on the market once this reaches a certain point (flipping the Monopoly board). I don't actually think he cares at all about the coin or the money, but he's doing this for shits and giggles.

It's too bad you can't push miners out of the market. This coin just became a whole lot more volatile when he started mining it in Feb. I'm contemplating selling my HDs and getting back into GPU mining because of this. The market for this coin was in a uneasy place to begin with (majority of the value comes from miners holding almost all their coins). If one with a lot of hash decides they want to start fucking everything up all they have to do is start dumping and nothing will stop it. Burst doesn't have the trade volume to deal with something like that.

Like I said earlier, it'd be funny in a sick sorta way if this was his plan all along (look at his name).

Current max deadline at burst.ninja is 3888000, also I'd prefer it if all API-like calls were done via port 8124 rather than port 80. I'm trying to slowly segregate UI/web to port 80 and mining to port 8124. Also please use your own local wallet or some other public wallet for InfoAddr.

Also, more updates to burst.ninja went live around 30 mins ago - hopefully curing that really annoying issue where the pool has a strop and decides to sit on nonce submissions for a while.

Don't forget there's http://burstforum.com/ for more chat about the pool and other Burst-related info.

The English site is still a bit behind but getting some content up.

If someone thinks BURST has a small team working so, yeah, we are understaffed considering all the things we want to do. However, our new page "About Us" presents more quite a few team members:

Is BURST wallet compatible with JAVA 8? I tried to run it on Java 8 several months ago and failed to do so, had to downgrade to Java 7. How is it now?

[bobafett]

i have it running with java8. no problems.

you have to modify the run_mine.bat to something like that

path="C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_31\bin"
start java -cp burst.jar;lib\*;conf nxt.Nxt

make sure, the path is right. i think now ist _40 or so.....

You can also use java autodetect script which can be found here: https://burstforum.com/index.php?threads/windows-burst-wallet-bat-file-universal-java-install.696/

thanks to xizmax for the autojava script hint.

[Pinecone]

you have Z:\, has to be Z:\\

I tried both ways. Still unable to recognize plots on network drive using the latest miner.

Are you running the miner as yourself, or as administrator? If the drives are mapped under your account, then you run the miner as administrator, the admin account does not see the drive mappings. If you are running as administrator, use a batch fil to re-map the drives.

H.

I think I finally settled on a fix for this problem I also had with my NAS drives not being recognized by Blago's recent miner updates.  I had been resorted to run Blago's December version up until now as it was the latest version that would recognize my NAS drives.  Basically what I came to conclusion wise is that Blago's latest versions run in administrator mode in windows by default since about 3 or 4 version updates ago.  I tried many ways to fix this on my Windows 8.1 system but kept defaulting back to an older Blago miner to run.  After Haitch's post above referencing the elevated administrator mode I decided to try a little more work and stumbled upon this article.  I added this "EnableLinkedConnections as instructed into my registry and finally with Blago's newest versions am able to use his latest miner and it see's my mapped drives.  Here's the link: http://www.winability.com/how-to-make-elevated-programs-recognize-network-drives/

hope it helps someone like it did me...

We will decrease reward down to 0.5% tomorrow

Dmitry, thank you very much for your generous donation, AGAIN.

But there are still 34 % (233 M) of Burst parked on the exchanges, so I am not sure you're getting what you aimed for.
I hope you are not going to p&d the markets (as you may own half the parked coins)..

But I have seen that there's nearly zero activity with the (mining) assets, not neccessarily due to your injection.

Opinions ? Where are we heading ?

Some amount of Burstcoins was removed from exchanges, may be 10.000.000 - 20.000.000 directly to our member wallets.
Also we can see that Burst price start some climbing. Not sure because of BurstBank or not.
It is a long term project, so lets wait a bit more, may be several weeks or months, then we could see some results i think.
Now we got near 100.000.000 Bursts involved, tomorrow we will decrease reward again, down to 0.3%, and will slowly downgrade it more, proportionally total amount increasing.

I appreciate this activity, but is possible to run it in long term? The involved wallets can be dumped imidiately.
Woudnt be better some AT script holding the BURST and releasing them slowly after some time? E.g 5% each month.

Each user would have own smart contract:
I send amount of X BURST to the script address
Burst Bank send e.g. 2% of X to the script address
after 7 days the script checks if there is X+(X/100*2) BURST
If not - it means, no interest from the BurstBank - X Burst is sent back to me
If yes - it will wait 10800 blocks (30 days) and then it will send (X+X/100*2) / 20  -  it will take 20 months to get the burst back.

I was also thinking about holding the burst for the whole year, but when releasing it at once will cause dumping the price in the future.

I modified the crowdfund AT, to expect 1,050,000 BURST after 4 day after creation. 1,000,000 will be provided by the owner ow the script. 5% will be provided by anyone who wants to block the amount for the next year.

When the target is not met, BURSTs will be sent back (same as in crowdfund)
If the amount will be greater or equal it starts sending BURST to the owner of the script. 1/12 each 30 days (10800 blocks).
It can be modified by adding delay before first sending (optional $blocks_before_first_repayment)

DISCLAIMER: Its my first script, so take it only as proof of concept. Can someone who understands ATs check it for mistakes? Thanks :-)

Hi everyone, is it possible to modify wallet code to force lower deadlines on testnet to speed up testing?

[bloodDiamond]

Hi BurstBank dev.

I think this is a good incentive to mantain burst in wallet without mine&dump...
but can you explain bettere what is the process?
where did you find the money to give 0.3%/0.5% daily??

thank you to let us understand better!!

[FreedomCoin]

with alot of peoples ISP capping bandwidth, i am curious how much GBs a month people are having to give to mine BURST on their drives.

Very nice! Nice to see someone is trying to write ATs .  With a quick review I found these issues. I will check it later ( when I have more free time) for other issues .

I find this idea very promising and of course, will spent some BURSTSs for blocking amounts  
Hope it will be ready soon, also i can offer some funding to force finish this AT development

Hi BurstBank dev.

I think this is a good incentive to mantain burst in wallet without mine&dump...
but can you explain bettere what is the process?
where did you find the money to give 0.3%/0.5% daily??

thank you to let us understand better!!

We already have some amount of Burstcoins (not very large, a bit more that Bobafett for example) that was mined and bought, this should be enough (If not, we can buy more) for months or may be 1 year.
We will proportionally decrease reward with amount, or price increasing, to 0.1% (will take months), and then slowly decrease it more.
I think, fair capitalization of Burst, at least, is near 5-20 millions $, like Monero,Counterparty or even Darkcoin, it is at the same stage with them or even more (HDD mining, AT, crowdfunding...), and hope, that our project and BURST holding can help to reach it and reach it faster.

At that point we may slowly sell 50-70% of rest BURSTs, and earn some profits. It wouldnt be very harmfull for market in that big capitalization and price.
Another 30-49% amount we going to sell later, because BURST have some chance to hit some huge capitalization, like aurora coin 500m for example.
And last 1% will be solden only in cause of BURST costs more than Bitcoin  

I was also thinking about holding the burst for the whole year, but when releasing it at once will cause dumping the price in the future.

Dumps may be dangerous now, but when BURST will hit big capitalization and popularity it wouldnt be a problem.
 

[CIYAM]

The use of an AT in order to "lock up funds" (in return for some interest) is an interesting concept and one that is far better than any other approach (as you don't need to trust anything other than the actual code).

At first I was mystified as to what the purpose of this AT was but having seen other offers to stop coin dumping I finally "got it" (not being a miner nor invested in the coin itself sometimes this things are not obvious to me).

The AT team will be happy to further review this new AT code and hopefully we'll have an endorsed version available soon for this new use case (as usual we won't charge for our work but any donations made via the ATDevelopment Crowdfund AT would be appreciated).
