This is important!

MINING HAS NOW STARTED!!!


https://github.com/sparkle5/Sparkle/releases/tag/alpha.1

Download the client...  to enable mining go to console and type"

"wallet_enable_mining account_to_mine_with true"

Once you have enough connections your computer will start mining.

As Bytemaster suggested I will honor all mined blocks from the test network in the real network genesis block.

It's CPU for the moment, and I don't think there's a Windows executable released.

I wish you good luck. But to make this coin succeed, you need to release Window version.

I don't have a Windows system to test on handy, but it looks like there's a Windows version here:

Sparkle Alpha 4 QT win32 binary

The images are kinda borked, but it works and you can mine. I'll work on it more later if there's any interest.


Test it out:

...Obviously be cautious with binaries, especially binaries posted by unknown or untrusted users.

I suppose it's important to remember that it's still on testnet.
Anything mined will be honored with the full release though!!

Yeah, mining it in test is kind of a pain.  Honoring test mined blocks seems like a good motivator to get people actually testing it.

Bumping this.  Very interesting...20 second block times?  That is almost as fast as full DPOS chains' 5 second tx times...

Let's see if it can scale to Visa Level transaction volumes like BitShares can.  If so, it is a real competitor.

Let's see if it can scale to Visa Level transaction volumes like BitShares can.  If so, it is a real competitor.

The issue is that with anything POW, every miner has to duplicate all of the transaction processing, so if it scales to VISA levels, then the cost of verification is basically equal to VISA's operating expenses times the number of miners.

Don't get me wrong, I think this has potential, but I think scaling anything based on proof of work to VISA levels will be prohibitively expensive unless it's centralized into just one or two mining pools.

I see. So the official launch will be after the 14th December snapshot date I presume?

Yes.  We are testing now and paying miners now to motivate testing/hacking the system.  So far it has worked well and we have found several bugs.

If you are mining please upgrade to Alpha.6 soon because the test network is hard forking to fix an attack in the mining validation logic.
