[GP] GoldPieces - An expandable digital currency for online multiplayer gaming

[melwinder]

Since everyone is seeming to have wrong stakes, I have a block of 90 going to be staking within the next 11+ hours, so when that stakes I will let you guys know the results and see what comes of it.

[Hamuki]

So.... We have to make our coins into blocks of 50 coins and then it will stake faster..?

There's a couple of us testing for optimal staking right now, so for the time being just let your coins age until we have some statistics.

Gold pieces coin is a online games coin.
it is a exchanging coin.
it have community forums.
if you want to play their games you will need to have some kind of callback system.
so they know when a player has submitted payment.
this could work similar to wallet but will be specifically created to game owner and players.
anyone can play this games easily whit this coin.

I'l be working on a payment gateway/callback system for online games after I get our first game http://Halhan.com to a public release. I know many online games that can integrate us as well once the payment gateway is ready (As a payment option for their cash shops, not an in-game currency)

Ok guys it's been a great weekend, Here's my To DO for today

Organize OP /Spruce it up/Work on a road map
After which il continue working on our first game.

Also 100GP was added to the Team Funds

current balance: 1,819 GP
donate: GVPx5Vysf9jNQ5dPXHzYLE2xUNbqmkUJt2

I will get started on our Marketing campaign after the op is organized a bit better today as well.

Thanks!

It should workout to be about the same speed either way you stack them, around 4m~ coins (500%) in January 2016

It all in the code, I sure u know how to search for words in text editor. CTRL-F or CMD-F works nicely

Here is a hint:

Code:

// miner's coin stake reward based on coin age spent (coin-days)
int64_t GetProofOfStakeReward(int64_t nCoinAge, int64_t nFees)
{
    int64_t nRewardCoinYear;

    nRewardCoinYear = MAX_MINT_PROOF_OF_STAKE;

    int64_t nSubsidy = nCoinAge * nRewardCoinYear / 365 / COIN;


    if (fDebug && GetBoolArg("-printcreation"))
        printf("GetProofOfStakeReward(): create=%s nCoinAge=%"PRId64"\n", FormatMoney(nSubsidy).c_str(), nCoinAge);

    return nSubsidy + nFees;
}

I'm trying to get someone with expertise in POS coins to look over the code for us.

There will be around 4m coins (500%) after one year. Everything looks to be working fine. I to am getting stakes in the 0.5-1gp range, that is normal.

Can you please PLEASE fix the bug that turns off staking everytime you send coins or create new addresses ?
Ive lost several days of staking now.

Which POS does not turn off staking when you send coins? I thought that all POS coins turns off staking when coins are sent.

it's not a bug. it's a feature! make sure to uncheck 'for staking only' when unlocking your wallet.

Try using the coin control feature to send coins that aren't likely to stake soon.

[Hamuki]

So, basicly make a ton of small under 50 coin blocks and stake those?
That would be best?

If you keep your wallet open 24/7 then each time your coins stake they split into two smaller sets. They will keep splitting until they get too small and then they will start to group up during each stake. So if you make them too small they will group up against the network weight to solve a block. As the network weight goes down the smaller blocks will stake more often then when a POS network is first starting out since most coins are in large chunks which make the network weight larger. So as all of the chucks in all of the wallet keep spitting and staking the network weight will even out against the stakes. Just need to give it some time and everyone should be staking good.

I thought it was normal for staking to get turned off when you send PoS coins. The only way to get round it is to use coin control and not many coins have it. Either that or spit your coins into multiple wallets/addresses.

Code:

// miner's coin stake reward based on coin age spent (coin-days)
int64_t GetProofOfStakeReward(int64_t nCoinAge, int64_t nFees)
{
    int64_t nRewardCoinYear;

    nRewardCoinYear = MAX_MINT_PROOF_OF_STAKE;

    int64_t nSubsidy = nCoinAge * nRewardCoinYear / 365 / COIN;


    if (fDebug && GetBoolArg("-printcreation"))
        printf("GetProofOfStakeReward(): create=%s nCoinAge=%"PRId64"\n", FormatMoney(nSubsidy).c_str(), nCoinAge);

    return nSubsidy + nFees;
}

wait a second the last part of that equation. Is that dividing the reward by the amount of coins your staking? if so wouldn't that mean more coins = less reward?

That's what it looks like to me as well, but I'm no programmer.
Just for reference.

Mintcoin  int64 nSubsidy = nCoinAge * nRewardCoinYear / 365;

Hyperstake int64 nSubsidy = nCoinAge * nRewardCoinYear / 365;

That's more like I'd expect, which source file contains the staking function? I was trying to find camorra and Kingdom earlier but so many files in gave up and went to work

Hyperstake int64 nSubsidy = nCoinAge * nRewardCoinYear / 365;

Agreed, and Clam is :
 int64_t nSubsidy = nCoinAge * COIN_YEAR_REWARD * 33 / (365 * 33 + 8);
or roughly the same

Why would i disable staking just because i sent some coins?
Of course i want to stake the remaining coins.
And of course i want to keep staking the coins i already have when i have made a new address.

And when you say ' The only way to get round it', do you mean the code is just too complex, so that the user must re-enable staking manually?

I dont get the concept, apparently, lol.

Edit: And it even disables staking if you cancel the password request for sending coins also.
Edit2: When i say 'disable staking' i mean that the coins get actually locked from staking. not that staking is disabled because of unmature coins, or because staking is 'actually' disabled by staking=0 in the .conf. I mean the green staking icon.
