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

Also, if we're giving out donations for PR, etc. in Burst then aren't these people going to convert the Burst to BTC/fiat ASAP and drive down the price?
Not sure what the alternative is...

Hello miner friends!


The ninja pool's bonus payout system has been setup and as a first run, I've dropped a 60k BURST BONUS , which will be distributed over the historic share pie.

Thank you for mining with us!

Uh, yeah, about that... it didn't work first time round (old config file) so I nicked the 60k Burst out of the bonus account and then resent it (with some extra by way of apology and thanks for people using my pool code).

I can confirm the bonus, but it came from a different BURST address. However, I did receive two payouts from that adress. One just a few minutes ago, and one (smaller) around 4-5 h ago. If the first one was unintended, just tell me and I'll send it back.

The ones we have given BURST says they are dedicated to the coin, but I rather see we get more mBTC

I have 17 TB in my miner right now; just moved various HDD's to one rig due to a different mining algo I'm using would freeze it up when mining in conjunction. With 17 TB (blago's miner), my 16 gb of ram is not enough to let the miner run smoothly while also allowing me to work on the computer unaffected.. My question is... Is there a preferred ratio of HDD space (in terabytes) to ram ratio I should be shooting for? I'm going to pick up some more ram tomorrow, and I wanna know how much I need to get.

i switched to win 10. all issues you are experiencing are gone with win 10.

Based on haitch's observations, it would appear my 2.8 ghz i5 is not enough CPU juice to power 5 4 GB HD's, and the RAM maxing out is background noise; Windows would free up the cache RAM as it needed it. The maxing out of RAM and unresponsiveness of the computer was just coincidental, I suppose.

If I come across a copy of Win8 or 10, I'll give it another shot, but I'm being told its my CPU.

it's "enough".  it's just gonna take a few extra secs to finish reading.  I had a system on F1 socket with 2 cores a while back it handled half a dozen drives just fine, read times were longer, that's all.

Then its a RAM cache-ing issue, as I had thought. Once all my ram is used up, the computer hangs. I watch it happen. Rufu's miner works fine, but it just doesn't like burst.ninja too much. Lots of disconnects and such.

I've found the issue come up many pages back from people with Win7.

https://bitcoin-forums.net/index.php?topic=731923.20200

Some claim Blago's miner solves the RAM leakage issue, when I don't believe it does. Can anyone else weigh in Using Blago's miner on a rig where the mining TB outnumbers the ram?

Again, I use Rufu's miner to handle 5 4 GB drives, and it mines and uses NO RAM, but burst.ninja doesn't like it (and honestly blago's miner is just sexier), just wondering what options I have. I would rather not abandon crowetic's pool...

Hi - in what way does burst.ninja not like Rufu's miner? Give me some details and I'll look into that

Thanks for getting back to me so quick.

I just started it back up to connect to burst.ninja to replicate the error and that is the error I get most of the time.

http://imgur.com/rJyxZyA

"Unable to commit nonce to burst.ninja:8124" If I leave the miner running, the errors appear more often.

Crowetic is a good guy, I'd like to stay on ninja, and I'm expecting more drives, but Runaufu's miner is the only one that doesn't give me the ridiculous Win7 RAM cache issue.

Also, if I am getting Deadline DIFF: 0y 00:00:00, does that mean I need to set my reward assignment with the pool?

Hi!

I´m mining on the burst.ninja pool with around ~15TB. But on the pool website are only showm 4-6TB
What could be the reason?

Thanks!

Based on my conversation's with Crowetic, it takes a bit for the pool to realize how much you have. Also, if your computer is slow at reading plots, it could decrease the space the pool thinks you have (also with smaller payouts), but BURST is totally new to me too, so take what I have to say with a large grain of salt.

@Crowetic: the pool just went down

@Crowetic: the pool just went down

It's up for me, and I don't see any blocks we didn't mine on.

Sorry , it was a little connection issue , I think, everything is fine now...

Try www.elementary.io with uray's miner. It needs almost no ram and runs stable for ... eternity.

8GB Ram
Pentium 4 Intel Core 2 Duo E7500

14TB spread over 5 drives, ~30sec scan time, using DCCTs miner, stable for months at a time, running BURST wallet and others, also my PLEX media server.

Burst and Linux get along very nicely.  DCCT and Urrays works fine, just lack the polish that Blago's has.

Happy Bursting.

You're all idiots for wasting your time and money on this shitcoin that will never amount to anything.

You're a serious troll dude  

He dips his pathetic self into a lot of threads and is always full of hate. The guy is a self-professed thief. He does computer repairs and troubleshooting and is always looking for bitcoin wallets to steal.

He's very loyal to Burst. Pops in every now and then. Says something shitty.

we should listen to him...look at is rep...lol

I like that graphic:

Yeah but yours don't pay out.

[Mark77]

butstcoin, I mine solo, and today I faced an unpleasant thing in BURST wallet. After I had mined more than 100 blocks, there was “100+” instead of the exact amount of blocks in the wallet. It is very inconvenient for monitoring the statistics. Is it possible to fix it someways?

[haitch]

I like that graphic:

Hey, lets be fair, Elmit's pool does sometimes payout - we'll ignore the occasions when the transactions don't make it to the block chain, or miners are short 1-2,000 burst of what they're owed. See, look at his recent payouts:

4408 to 260 Miners. (33% Pool fee)
1,517 to 1 miner (77% pool fee)
162 to 18 miners (97.5% pool fee)
4107 to 250 miners (38% pool fee)

So, when Elmit does manage to payout, he's taking 33-38% of the pool earnings, when the payout gets fubar'd he's keeping 77-97% of the earnings .... That's legit right ?

Looking at his pools payouts vs burst.ninja who he loves to disparage/slander.....

Burst.Ninja Time up: 7 months. Payouts: 26.9M burst
Mininghere Time Up: 6 months. Payouts: 1.67M burst

How does the second largest pool payout only 6% of the payout of the 4th largest pool over a similar period ?

Oh, and BTW Elmit, Vaxman over in BurstForum is concerned about his Petabyte asset not paying out and his correspondence not being answered.
