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

You all don't understand.  Even though tech geeks such as us understand these coins, the general public, being far dumber, does not.  Bitcoin is having enough problems being accepted all across the world.  The general public cannot comprehend more than one cryptocurrency at a time.  And Burst coin sure as hell has no chance of success.

You are not tech geek. You are troll and fud-er. You had big problems with mine this coin from beginning and mine with 10Gb size plot xD

- at what time will 50% of all coins been minted from the present day?
- at what time will 100% of all coins been minted from the present day??

- in 10 months from now;
- in 12 years from now.

Excellent, thank 

[mczarnek]

@mmmaybe I am currently working on getting a main site up and running, anyone wants to help, it'd appreciate it and something I'd like to get running asap.

Reward assignments actually open up some interesting possibilities in regards to what can be done, since the entire network knows how many and what users are registered to each pool, and which user found each block for the pool

How do you know that they haven't joined a pool then reused that harddrive space to rejoin the pool multiple times, trying to chat and get a bigger chunk of the pool? Also if they never submit a block, can you tell for sure they are part of the pool?

Ideally you can mine and submit blocks individually but money earned is paid and split between the pool.. would be really nice.. in fact entire network could be a giant pool if you could do that.

I thought that PrevBlockTimestamp+NewBestDeadline=NewBlockTimestamp, but:

35943 Blocktime 8720261
-----    New block: 35944
found deadline=2
35944 Blocktime 8720272 (+11s)

Best deadlines are not difference between timestamp?

I think it took your miner 11 seconds to found your deadline of 2.

[soronto]

Can I  have definitive answer for the following question: is it allowed to have the gap between plots? for example: I have  3 plots:

1. 1-100000
2. 100001-180000
3. 200001-300000

So there is a gap between 180001 and 200000. Should I leave it and don't worry or try  to create missing plot?

Yeah your ok....

as long as they don't overlap

Ok thx for help. Do you have any (your own) experience regarding of stragger value? I have checked it my self but didn't see any differences.

11 seconds from what?

Every 3 sec - getMiningInfo from pool. Then:
04:17:59 New block: 35944
04:18:02 found deadline 2s
04:18:03 sent to pool
04:18:09 Recieved confirmation from pool

[boliu]

04:17:59 New block: 35944

04:18:09 Recieved confirmation from pool

it already took 10 seconds for your pool to confirm your 2 second deadline, and a few more to be on the blockchain.

[tex81]

I`m not shure in how deadline and timestamp 'work'.

...
The resulting number is a number of seconds. If that many seconds passes since the last block without a new one, the address/nonce combination used to generate that plot/scoop is eligable to announce a new block.
...

"since the last block" - is since I know about new block or since it`s timestamp?

[paradigmflux]

Both doge94 & paradigmflux need to check their respective pools...

@paradigmflux, I haven't seen a payout in several days now... Looks like several people are getting fed up with it as well, as there is almost no hashing power on your pool anymore. What's the deal?

...would be really nice if Pool devs would chime in.
Both pools are still having issues.

@paradigmflux - Officially down 6000+ coins (and counting) because your pool isn't paying out.
You rally for support of you pool, yet are MIA when your pool needs you.

I'm headed to bed now. However, if there is not any feedback on fixing the pool by the time I wake up, then I'll have no other option than to cut my losses and pull all of my hashing power off of your pool...

Hope to hear some good news soon.

still no updates/fixes.
*sigh* I'm severely disappointed...

@paradigmflux - Whelp, I've given up on your pool since there is no support from you.
I have now withdrawn my miners from your pool, leaving it with less than 150GH/s (SHA) of hashing power...

If you ever decide to make right on these issues, let me know and I'll consider shifting my hashing power back.

WHAT IS GOING ON WITH BURSTMULTIPOOL.COM???

paradigm, I would like to sell my assets back, as nothing seems to be happening with them, can you please PM me. Thanks.

I was thinking about it today, i bought the shares but i didn't saw any dividend

I don't think anyone ever did, I am pretty sure I am the biggest single owner, I was all in on this until I saw absolutely nothing come of it, he had a great plan, but no follow-through... now I'm wondering what he'll do when I contact him asking for my share investment back, seeing as he didn't do a single thing he said he would, or didn't show proof of anything, or anything... I totally feel taken.

I highly doubt that you are going to receive any dividends when the pool itself isn't even paying out... (See my quoted post above)
No payouts have happened for 8 days now and paradigmflux hasn't even logged into BCT since the 25th.

I really hope that paradigmflux comes back and makes things right, but for now I'd suggest just pulling your hashing power (if any) and cutting your losses...

In case you haven't noticed, I had put up a buyback wall for the assets that has been up for over a month now.
The pool also paid out finally before it shut down

Quick update
The goal of sold shares to buy the next LTCGear package is getting near day by day.

For those who don't know what BLTPS is, in short terms, it is a project that is investing directly BTCs into cloud-mining hardware to avoid dumping Bursts.
The profit is then used to build buy-walls for Bursts, sustain its market value and split the bought ones among BLTPS investors.
Basically an alternative way to both mine and increase this coin value.

Check out all details in the official thread:

Burst Long Term Price Support project
(BLTPS)

Investment Status
Share value: 0.01 BTC - Sold Shares: 372 - Next goal: 450 250
Booked Shares (waiting for payment): 60
Hashrate supporting Burst: 174 MH/s (LTC)

What kind of spam?

I go an invitation to join some unknown SG pool. I responded by asking how much they would pay me for joining them. Got no response pack

How would would estimate the amount of energy used by the burst network vs Bitcoin?

I guess the biggest question is, what percentage of the time do hard drives need to be online to be used to mine?

[vipervince2002]

How would would estimate the amount of energy used by the burst network vs Bitcoin?

I guess the biggest question is, what percentage of the time do hard drives need to be online to be used to mine?

There are a lot of assumptions in these numbers, but it should still give a rough estimate.  

Bitcoin network electrical consumption:
Assumption: The average Bitcoin miner has the efficiency of an Antminer S4 of 0.69 Watts/(GH/s).

In reality, this assumption is very generous because the efficiency for most ASICs will be worse than one of the most power efficient available.  
Total Bitcoin hashrate as of 11/20/14 at 11:20pm: 284,772,770 GH/s

Total electricity consumption (at a minimum): 0.69 W/(GH/s) * (284,772,770 GH/s) = 196,493,211.3 Watts = 196,493 kilowatts


BURST network electrical consumption:
Assumption: The average hard drive on the BURST network is 1 TB.

According to http://www.buildcomputers.net/power-consumption-of-pc-components.html, the average hard drive consumes 10 W. Most hard drives on the network are probably 2 TB or larger, but assuming 1 TB is a worst cast scenario (two 1 TB hard drives use 20 W vs one 2 TB hard drive uses 10 W).

Assumption: BURST network is at its highest difficulty and largest size at 9000 TB.

10 W/drive * 9000 drives = 90,000 W = 90 kilowatts

90 / 196,493 = 0.045% of Bitcoin's electricity at current levels

EDIT: 10 W is the most that a hard drive typically uses. Idling uses about half as much power or less.
