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

what is the problem with tompool?

[jamoes]

I never understood why NXT went with 64 bit addresses. They're still long enough that you have to copy and paste them, but they're significantly less secure than bitcoin's 160 bit addresses. This is an unfortunately part of NXT that Burst has inherited.

If it were up to me, I would transition Burst addresses to standard 160 bit scheme used by most other crypto-currencies. I'd also change the account system to discourage address re-use rather than encouraging it. This is better for user privacy, and more resilient against the advent of quantum computers.

I would use a longer wallet address, agreed.

But I love Nxt's RS wallet address.  It's a great idea to somewhat protect users against copy and paste mistakes and that kind of thing.  Which their wallet address does.

Bitcoin-style addresses are also hardened against copy/paste errors. The last 4 characters are a checksum, so any missing or mis-typed characters will be detected. They don't do error-correction, like NXT-style Reed-Soloman addresses do, but that's completely unnecessary in my opinion - error detection is sufficient.

I suggest using checksums of reference plot-files to verify results of different plot-making software and drivers (OpenCL versions).

Some conditions:
- different AccountIDs (and it`s sizes);
- different startNonces;
- different fileSizes;
- with/without staggering.

If you have problems with RAM performance use Runaurufu Burst Miner, change pool and directories in configuration.xml to fit your needs - tool has been checked by forum members and is clean - using it myself long time already.

NO, it hasn't been vetted!!!

After seeing this miner posted about 8 times, I finally decided to try it, and so far I can say it's pretty damn nice. The only thing I haven't tested long enough to see how the payouts are comparatively, but the usage of system resources is WAY better. Thanks Runarufu. Pilotseye.

[gomei]

What is current burst diff ? Is it grow to the moon ? I have very little payment froma uary eu pool compare to last week. Is it pool problems or network diff ?

same question here,
long time not to check the burst.

[Nevril]

Big Update!
I'm really glad to announce that the first Burst payout has been made. This means that BLTPS Project is officially in its Phase 3.

The price was fixed to be ~8% of the initial investment, specifically a total of 251'000 Bursts (500 per BLTPS share) have been payed to investors.
This percentage will be increased to ~20% starting from the next payout which is scheduled for the 07/jan/2015.
All the details, with transaction IDs and payed shares, can be found in the official thread on BurstForum.
Investors may want to have a look at their wallets

If you want to start investing or buy some more shares, the price won't change 'till the end of Phase 3.

Thank you to all Phase 1 and Phase 2 investors who made this possible.

Thanks crowetic, I just want to help users facing the same performance issues that I did until using this miner

How stupid are you? Seriously?

This might be an excellent program but no one in their right mind will run it because you SAY it has been checked by members!

If you want to do the community a favor, please state 1) who these personS (plural) you are referring to are and 2) how they audited it. How hard can that be?

3) You have been asked several times to provide the source to the program, but simply neglected to do that. Why the hell is that? Are you one of the guys who runs .exe files just because virustotal says it might be ok? Is that how it has been checked too?

My friend,

We disagree here He has been asked very simple questions each of the eight times he posted it here, and not once has he answered them. He provides a damn virustotal link and think that's fine in crypto.

That's just not good enough.

As I said, this might be a great program, but why can he not just answer the really easy questions, I keep asking myself.


Thanks for taking the risk and running it though

Yea, all good man, I'll let you know if my 2 million burst disappear. haha.

But no, in actuality, the main reason I tried this is because I trust Pilotseye, he's a friend of mine. I don't think he would give out a link, albeit multiple times, if the link was a virus. I just don't see him doing that. Plus, I got tired of everyone blasting him when I believe he was literally just trying to help people with performance issues.

So, I hope that me, being the member I am, jumping on this, using it, and telling people what I find, would help to alleviate this problem we seem to be having.

Thanks!

The first payment for the XMAS BONUS on http://burst.ga will happen today. I will send 25k 2-3 times during the day, and/or 10k 7-8 times. No one knows, it's the mystery elf.

edit: 15k just sent. Happy holidays!

[callmejack]

i have a question for all tech gurus out there.
can anyone explain how the "generationSignature" the java miner shows for a block is calculated?

{"requestProcessingTime":1,"baseTarget":"1539509","height":"46225","generationSignature":"28dc74770c5735501c44b747d782f30f4b77e962a068b67b4f834544a258274a"}

i tried to read the java source but the part creating the signature creates several objects i have'nt checked in detail yet.
the graph on the first page explaining the mining says the the NewGenSig + blockheight is used to calculate the deadline.
is the generation signature a shabal256 of my numeric accountid as 32 byte + the blockheight as 8 byte?

please don't start with personal attacks.  too many people get taken in by running un-vetted exes

where's the source code that can be checked?  once it's posted and checked it's all good.  the miner probably will even make to to OP as a link.

until then, reverting to personal attacks on those who question the post on technical and sound exercise of caution makes you look bad.

are you saying to plot the same file using different plotters and then compare the md5 of the file to see if plotters produce identical content of the plot files?

I'm sorry if I offended you.

However, it's you that have promoted this program and repeated to refuse to answer simple questions about the statements you made in the posts. We still do not know who the members are you are referring to.

I don't even think you are doing some maliciously by intention; often bad code spread just because people aren't critical enough. That's why you have gotten the responses you have here.

I don't know what's in the program, I don't know what it does (despite mining); and that is really bad. If you can't answer questions, I think you should be very careful recommending stuff to others.

So even if you only have good intentions, and even if I trust crowetic more than I trust almost all in own family, I'd never run the program.

I hope I've explained myself better now, and I'm sorry I got angry when I didn't get any answers.
