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

[ajw7989]

Does anyone know what a reliable amount of hdd space is required to make a decent amount per day (as small as a dollar a day worth of burstcoin). I am debating to get involved or not but I probably only have about 4-5 TB to spare.

4 TB is more or less 1$ at the current value. Jump in

3) Stop talking about mining? Are you serious? This is a Work In Progress coin with an unbelievable potential and we should stop talking about how to exploit and develop it? We have to raise issue so they get fixed asap! Having lots of people who don't understand how to mine simply means that there aren't enough/clear/easy-to-find information neither there is a 1-click mechanism to start mining (I know there is "something" like that but it is lost in 667 pages!)

http://burstforum.com for starters and we have a GUI in the works with pretty much everything built in.

OK, still no help on my posts. When I start burst mining on my computer, I run one instance of the server, and three instances of the miner(one on each drive). I have 10TB between 3 drives plotted. What can I do to reduce memory usage, and how come when I start the miners, they will just stop one at a time? I put a pause in the CMD line and when it stops, it just stops. No error or anything. Does anyone have any ideas? Also with just two miners running, I am sitting at 13Gb of memory used, that seems high. Is there a way to reduce it?

First, are your trying to Solo mine or Pool mine (if pool, which pool?)

1a) Burst is loosing value. Wrong!

Very wrong.

"losing".

But introspection is a good thing, keep it up. Just... try to evolve.

Guys,
do you think is possible to plot 2 partitions at same time with cpu?
Or is totally a wasted of time since for every single plotting cpu usage is however 100%?

Thanks for the correction. Not english mother-tongue here...

Dear all,

this is my first foray into crypto. I chose burst because I like the idea behind it. After some teething issues with setting it all up (pc crashing - turned out to be the PSU) I am mining away on my small 100gb plot, urays pool. Am at a lowly 40ish BURST now.

Cant say I am able to contribute much in the way of useful feedback as am new to all this. However, I do believe the setup should be a bit easier. For example it took me a while to figure out that the ram amount set to be used by java in the tutorial I followed is too high for my old rig I was setting up burst on.

Additionally, I think some valid points were raised by Nevril.

Offtopic, which is the go to exchange to trade in? I might want some more burst

Burst need something unique to rise.
Mining algo apart....

Mining algo is like "Made in".
It doesn't matter if iphone is made in china, or blackberry in u.s.a.,or nokia in finland.
What makes difference, is theyr unique stuff that involve people buy one or other. I choose to buy iphone cause....blackberry cause....etc etc.

Burst is "made" in poc.  darkcoin in x11. bitcoin in sha-256. Or any other altcurrency.
But why some cryptos have success than others?
Cause of service,future development or stuff like that.

Darkcoin was first x11 coin...BUT...first ANON.
Burstcoin is first poc coin and?

So, i really hope something unique cames around soon, or is just an altcoins with a different mining algo. Just this.
Like first x11,x13,x15,scrypt-jane etc etc coins.

An investor like to check thread an read roadmap. At least...this is what i do when i decide to invest in a coin instead of just mining.
I read and i look at roadmap. What will come in short time? Which dates? Which unique features will be implemented that noone other crypto have?
Think if here we will find: October 15 this features will be release.....October 28 this feature will be release....november 1 this features....etc etc". Unique features.

I don't understand why you guys care so much about the current price or what investors are going to think.  A low price is good right now, jump in!  I'm HOPING the price will drop to 100s.

If investing in burst or drives for mining  has caused you a cash-flow problem, investing in anything was a poor financial choice.  Otherwise, why not keep developing the burst ecosystem?  That's what's going to lead to a sustainable price rise... fretting about who to market it to in the mean time is silly.

Where is the dev?? 5 days now without a damn post here. Even just a heads up on how things are going would suffice - we now he has been online and answering PMs, time he showed up here too.

My wallet 1.1.1 didnt want to update, so ive downloaded 1.1.3. Unfortunately this one doesnt want to update neither. I copied the burst.h2.db file from 1.1.1 to the 1.1.3 but its still not updating correctly. It freezes like in 95%. Your wallets are working fine ?

Thank you and welcome on board.
About the exchange, any will do as far as I know (maybe C-Cex had some issue, not sure if I recall correctly). I'm using Poloniex and it worked (not big amount traded thou).

I wonder... Have you ever been in contact with a dev of something in general? Or have you been developing something by your own?
I generally update my customers when, uhm... when I have an update. Programming isn't easy, it takes time and a lot of patience. Sometimes I'm so tired I don't even want to see a keyboard for 3 days (but I do, my job, dammit!)
5 days are nothing. I agree that some updates could be announced or advertised with some kind of "Dev newsletter", but as I said in my previous post: this is a WIP coin. Give time to everyone. Last feature was released 5 days ago. Don't panic, everything will settle
