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

is it possible to continue plotting once i stopped plotting for now? plotting takes a long time, i wonder if it is possible so my computer can take a rest after some time and continue plotting. thank you for your answers

Unless you have issues with overheating or some such...why would you need to let your computer "take a rest"? I promise you, it doesn't get tired of working and no one is checking to make sure it got lunch break lol. 

But yes, if you're using Xplotter to plot with (cpu plotter), you can close the program and resume plotting as long as you know what the last nonce it created.

if you close the program properly and it was started properly, then you can resume the program with the same parameters as the last time and there will be a bookmark block in the last plot so that it can take up where it left off.  Bad shutdowns and restarts and such may make this not work right

Network quality is at 0%... been like that for a day or so.
Not really 100% sure what that means or how to fix it, as it was usually at 70-100% before today..

That is how your miner is connecting to the network

Ok so i got 3 burst from the faucet but it didn't work ?
I then transferred 100 burst from poloniex, to my local wallet BURST-U4B5-ZWJW-UT8H-FN42X

Its been 2 hours and i have Zero Balance, anyone know why ?

[powergecko]

Yes just an update, the balance is now 99 cool

How long is Burst still mineable?

Available/Total Supply
1.79 Billion / 2.16 Billion

Thanks

Estimate is until around 2024 (or maybe a bit longer)... after there will still be mining as the rewards with be the network fees.

burst is on fire.... buy or hold

Should I or should I not? Raid 0 hgst 2 x 3TB burstcoin mining?

I have already HGST Ultrastar A7K3000 HUA723030ALA640 3 TB, and another on the way.

Should I raid 0 64 strip these two.

The work that is gonna be done on these is called burstcoin mining.

Read/writes will be faster.

I do have few things to factor in.

I have a vantec sata3 raid card that will be running the raid.

I do have an omnivs1000 power backup.

https://www.tripplite.com/omnivs-120v-1000va-500w-line-interactive-ups-tower-usb-port~OMNIVS1000/

So if powerloss happens raid wont be lost. Also another factor, data isnt important for this raid 0 setup.

What do you guys think?

For BURST mining RAID0 is waste of space. Any HDD is fast enough for mining. Most of USB sticks and memory cards are fast enough for this...
Just plot both drives and enjoy

Yea I got a response from team-burst.us
Individual drives will be faster than Raid 0 as the miners are multithreaded and can read both drives simultaneously.

Also think about the overall plan and layout for your rig.  If you are going to mine and plot simultaneously, moving files within the same drive is ten times faster than drive to drive.  You can plot one subdirectory and mine another, then move the files once done.

Faster the network connection the larger that your plots can be  in general, also GPU mining is better for larger plots.  If your plot is not fully read and a dl sent before the block gets solved you lose out.  Error prone PC's and drives can be plotted with many smaller plots.

Nothing against a particular PC, we had one in  an office that had major electrical glitches and that meant PC's on and off left and right.  Also, program and use xplotter with a batch file and any interrupted plotting can be restarted without error, most of the time.

[Sweetbtc]

Lastly consider whether you will config the miner to fully read the plots each time.  Adding new plots constantly and you need to read them all the time, a system that has been in a current state for a while can usually skip reading each time.

i can confim this
i'm mining burst with 8 thread each one disk...
i reach 450Mb/sec and more...
this is the right way.
No RAIC conf could be better.

I just made 25 bucks in burst!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is there a problem with the burst wallet blockchain? I tried to download it as zip file and only got some kb of download speed. Downloading the chain directly from the wallet doesn't work either. Now the db.zip file went offline and I can't even start the download. Is this a known problem or just bad luck?

I would go to one of the BURST sites and ask your questions, or use the online wallet.

I did try to use an online wallet. I use one at burstnation but I had the same problems. The Wallet forked and transactions are not possible. Not form bittrex nor a faucet. It's like the whole damn thing is offline. But others can mine, so it has to be my fault.

I'm amazed I can't bring this to work... strange coin...

Ya, I peak ~850mb/s with 12 threads/13 disks. Can't wait for those 18 core i9's to be released

What is your HDD capacity? Pool? How long did it take?
