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

[crowetic]

i dont get why everyone requires such much memory to plot.
i created a few 100 tb plots splitted in 2gb files with stagger 8191 and 8191 nonce which work great.
even the java plotter only used few hundred megabytes ram during plotting.
a 2 tb disk is read in less than 20 seconds during the mining and each miner instance runs with Xmx750m without crashes.
would i have any advantage if i would merge my disks and run eg. 10-30 tb plots instead of 120 miner instances reading many 2gb files in the cluster?

Only 100TB?

129*1.9tb for now as spare parts which i can mine with for 6 month or more as testcase.
also awaiting new hardware arrivals 

Just try not to kill the price any more than it already has been killed, please kind sir.


On a negative note....


Today my 9 month old baby pulled one of my brand new 4TB drives to the floor while it was plotting in an external dock... The drive hit the ground without any protection at all, while spinning AND writing... I had my fiance try to plug it back in, but no luck with the drive showing up, hopefully it's something else and I can fix it when I get home, but I'm sorta leaning towards my drive being broken...


ironic, my first burst drive to break, is not from mining burst, but from my baby son.

so the moral of the story is burst and baby does not mix ?

why u need multiple miner instance? which miner are u using?

if you want to be safe, and use less memory while mining, keep stagger size low (<= 8192), merging plot or not does not have any difference, why only 2GB files? its too small are u using FAT32 ?

So, why my miner use 14Gb of memory for 8Tb plots with 4096 stagger ?
There is a prolem with my plots ?

i don't know exatcly, but i am using it fine for 15 TB, it use only 600MB for 8192 stagger
how do you create that plot? which plotter r u using?

I use Gpu plotter

ANNOUNCEMENT:

I have stopped mining this piece of shit crapcoin.  I hadn't had a payout for DAYS with 10.43 TB of disk space pimping away, I was tired of the piece of crap Java miner hogging 9 GB of ram for two instances of mining, I'm tired of the developers' half-assed miner and having to do half the programming work just to compile and run the damn thing.

My 4 3TB Seagate Barracuda hard drives are on ebay right now for a VERY fair $340 and free shipping in the USA.

Furthermore, I predict that this crapcoin will never see 500 satoshis again.  Anyone who tries to talk it up by saying things like "to da mooooooon", is a fool, an idiot, and a moron.

So screw this crapcoin and everything about it.

Basically whe you say screw everything about this coin you are telling us all to f*ck off...
Thats not very nice of you.

I have been mining and minting and whatnot more than 30 altcoins the last half year, and nowhere have i seen more competent developers and a more productive main developer but here. I am staying. I don't mind other ppl leaving cause that means my plots generate more coins. In the long run this one will be one of the main altcoins, in fact, it already is, only not so many have found out yet.

My 20TB will be shipped on the 24th and will be operational a few days after that. I would really love a price crash and some of the more childish people leave, cause that will leave more burst to be had by the ones who are in for the long haul. Looking back at how short a period of time this coin has been live, the innovation and the development (and the quality of software developed) is lots higher than what i see in the  professional software development world. I surely hope the dev team behind this coin like good beer, cause there might just one day happen to drop a large box of said liquind on their doorstep. (not now... down the line..)

BTW seagate barracuda disks (at least the 3TB version) are  extremely crappy by my experience. i've had two of these crash in short order, while all my other 3TB drives have been working flawlessly. I hope for seagate that they've gotten their shit together reg. their 4tb drives.

It's amazing to see how many ppl are actively contributing to the coin and the software. Cheers to every one of you.. it is very much appreciated.

Lol, well, sorta, but actually more like this... Don't leave your plotting drives in an external dock anywhere near where the baby can reach it. It's all bad for the life of the drive. xD 4TB down the drain captain.

Yes, and people keep whining and dumping at current price. I'm excited what would people say when we reach 10Petabytes.

+1 i've been mining hundreds of altcoins since a year or two, even i did mining bitcoin using CPU, when the price is still like 0.1$ / btc, and NO... i am not rich.. i loss all those easy earned bitcoin on satoshi dice!, the moral of the story is... its so easy to overlooked great innovation when the price is very very low, i don't ever thinking twice when i put 5 BTC bet on satoshidice a long time ago, cause its just 0.5$ !, now we see most people so easy dumping thousands of burst at the price of < 100 sats ...

why i am so eager to support development of this coin is because i am so bored with hundreds of copy-cat so called innovative coin, with their new PoW algorithm, annon feature, proof-of-stake, some use funky name, some even have VOIP feature put into their wallet (which make me laugh) in desperate to give innovation, even we have dedicated callendar for coin launch, and everyday there is new coin launch! what a crazy world

burst giving a fresh breath to crypto world, not only its greener to run than bitcoin, litecoin and other alts, burst also more asic resistance since it does not rely on computation, and also burst is free from Proof of stake flaw of rich getting richer, its better distributed since harddrive is easier to get and maintain than GPU or ASIC, and also its free from CPU-coins flaw that can be abused by bot-net or any infected PCs. day by day network capacity is increasing, we almost have 9 Peta Bytes now, that's great network infrastructure if we can utilize it better.

there are lot of potential, we still have a lot to do, we are talking too much about technical side of mining, and less commercial and social, we need to build better and bigger community for this coins

[crowetic]

We will get there, the community behind this coin is GREAT. The DEV is great, all of the other devs are GREAT! There is only a simple matter of time, before this coin is as well-known as LTC, and worth a fantastic amount.

I for one, will continue to hold my burst and buy more and more until I can't anymore. I want to hold 20 million by Jan. This coin is THE only new coin worth watching IMO.

20 mill! Wow! I don't think I'm that rich !!!

[burstcoin]

I want everyone to know that this guy has been PMing me wanting to buy my drives for $320 but he won't come up to $340.  And he wants my plots and user id and password, etc.  Cheap ass.

Actually, the intention in my latest offer was to buy them through ebay at the listed price of $340.  The extra conditions were to make it worth my while to hand the extra money over to ebay, since they'll give you less than the $320 in escrowed bitcoin I originally offered.

Got a better idea for you:
5TB external ( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=22-178-587 ) with promo code EMCPAHH222 today only brings price down to $160USD each. 2x of them = $320 for 10TB instead of timk's $340 for 9TB.

[Sglasio]

How i can optimize my plots from 3072 stagger to 8191 ?

Thanks!  Tim's deal is actually for 12TB, but the higer density is worth the premium.

The specifics need work, and it is admittedly rough.  I had to do a lot of work to actually mine this, and because of very poor error condition checking, I was successfully mining while thinking I wasn't.  I had almost completely given up.

I had to do a lot of work to make the miners, plotters, etc work.

But the reason I did it, is exactly what uray said above.  This one is worth paying attention to, because it democratizes mining.  ANYONE can mine.  Drive space is cheap.  It consumes almost zero power.  People can do it for fun.  It's the first real green alternative to the monstrous, megawatt driven industry of bitcoin mining.

[fivebells]

Yes, someone should estimate out how much energy burst would use for the same capital outlay currently protecting bitcoin.  I estimated recently that it would take about $100M to 51% the bitcoin blockchain.  How much drive space would that take buy, and how much energy would that many drives mining burst demand?  I've read similar estimates for bitcoin (e.g., mining results in about half a million tonnes of greenhouse gases being dumped into the atmosphere each year), so that part is already done.

[fivebells]

also tim's disks are from tim. 

I don't see any reason so far to think that Tim would trade in bad faith.
