Is this coin alive? Vol is so low

It has a pulse, I know that... it's going through some transitions currently... there was a 20ish btc wall at .00007 for a while, then there was a big one at .00004, now at .00002... I know at least one person is taking the coin seriously, even more are taking it seriously as evidenced by the activity on this thread. I have no idea what the price will do but I imagine eventually people would run out of surplus 8bit to sell this epically mysterious someone, and then the price will have less downward pressure.

To prospective buyers it seems like now or soon would be a good time to buy.... a GINORMOUS amount of 8bit has been unloaded over the course of the last couple of months, many of us have witnessed it, there simply can not be all that much surplus 8bit left hanging around that anyone would want to sell. The price could do anything from here but I'd expect it will begin heading up again soon. New wallet is supposed to be coming too with new masternode requirements (1000 8bit instead of 112).

So yes, i'd say alive.

"8bitd -cli masternode list" returns usually around 50-100 active mns for me at any time

New wallet sounds good, will that be a working windows wallet?

Weird. Really. Do you have non-empty wallet.dat in use? If so, let it sync without it. Please paste an output of

Code:

ps ux|grep 8bitd

I still don't get it: atm the load average of the vps is between 0.00 and 0.10, so it is idle.
Memory in use is 66%.
Disk activity is zero for minutes.
Syncing is still not finished and is to slow to catch up to the current block.
Another strange thing is that "./8bitd getinfo" takes a very long time to respond

Paste here output of:

Code:

free -m

total used free shared buff/cache available
Mem: 488 106 84 4 297 345
Swap: 3071 448 2623

CPU is around 0,7%

Still it's inresponsive. ./dasd getinfo takes a long time or doesn't appear at all
Still some 2200 blocks behind
The amount of blocks behind is growing

I'm running 2 MN coins. Bitcloud and 8bit on the same container. Compare.

Nothing to compare here. When 8bit was as small as bitcloud is (blockchain height & size, utxo size), people were running 10 wallets concurrently on 1GB machines.

Agreed it can't be compared to Bitcloud... but 8Bit uses WAY to many resources....

What is the ETA on the new wallet with new mn coin requirements?

dbcache=64
mempool=64

what these two commands do? why 64 ?

Default value for dbcache is 25, so 64 will increase memory consumption. Don't do it. mempool option does not exist. Setting it changes nothing.

Hi guys.
downloaded bootstrap.dat.gz
and blocks.tgz.
I did everything right, but
another 12 weeks after the dumps ....

synchronization is simply awful long. Embarrassed

Can anyone pull out of his wallet fresh files?
from the folder AppData / 8Bit

of course without Wallet.dat

Is there a way to increase syncing speed?
My masternode is on a Vultr vps.
The syncing of the masternode can't keep up with the increment of the blockchain, so it is getting more and more behind.
I have 512mb memory and 2GB swap.
How can I speed this up?

There's no way in hell you can run this coin with 512mb of ram. With config options, expect it to gobble up 4gb of ram trying to swallow it's blockchain. With options (I posted a few above) it'll use 1gb of ram.

Here's the proof:

Code:

top - 19:39:59 up 30 days, 15:36, 1 user, load average: 0.17, 0.17, 0.22
Tasks: 21 total, 1 running, 20 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie
%Cpu(s): 0.2 us, 0.6 sy, 1.5 ni, 97.8 id, 0.0 wa, 0.0 hi, 0.0 si, 0.0 st
KiB Mem: 4194304 total, 1915204 used, 2279100 free, 0 buffers
KiB Swap: 524288 total, 111496 used, 412792 free. 1110980 cached Mem

PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
22055 poops 20 0 2469660 973340 363280 S 12.3 23.2 1680:37 8bitd
23581 poops 20 0 1529660 107312 10780 S 6.3 2.6 228:52.39 bitcloudd

I'm running 2 MN coins. Bitcloud and 8bit on the same container. Compare.

So it makes no difference that the 2 GB swap is on an SSD?
I tought because SSD is fast I could have more fast memory.
I just switched to Vultr because on my Time4vps I was not permitted to enlarge the swap file

I have 512mb memory and 2GB swap.
How can I speed this up?

1) Use bootstrap or install parsed blockchain
2) I forgot about forks since I use 1GB ram + 2GB swap

I still don't get it: atm the load average of the vps is between 0.00 and 0.10, so it is idle.
Memory in use is 66%.
Disk activity is zero for minutes.
Syncing is still not finished and is to slow to catch up to the current block.
Another strange thing is that "./8bitd getinfo" takes a very long time to respond

So because it is almost not using resources I would say it has something to do with connections. The number 0f connections is 8, but it seems like it takes to long for the information to come in.
Is there something i can change in the 8bit.conf to speed that up?

The code for this coin is ancient. It gobbled up 4gb of ram on my vps before. From what I can tell, it's using really old bitcoin core code in there, and you need to tune some params. Try adding these to the conf:

maxconnections=20
dbcache=64
mempool=64

Still, mine is using nearly 1gb of ram.

How many coins a Masternode receive Daily ?

0.88 x 3 or 4. around that.

Really? It varies a lot in my experience. Sometimes 3 a day, sometimes 3 days nothing.

Yeah, closer to 3 days nothing. Pretty disappointing.

Well i guess your statement is much better and true. There are days with luck and days with no luck at all.

Since many people already know it, no need to keep it secret anymore - indeed, incoming 8BIT version will use PIVX codebase. However, it will be not pure clone, the goal is to use current chain with this code base, therefore many things need to be changed (ie hashing algo).

Gr8!
