Can anyone tell me about how many coins you get a day for running a masternode?

Low Price masternode, it could interest me

112

How many coins are needed to run a masternode?

I think he was referring to http://www.8bitcoin.org/ which is just a reserved URL at this point

I am also trying to download the wallet without luck.

I am happy to host it if somebody is willing to email it to me. Please PM if you have it available.

Right now there is a lot of hype around POS/Masternode coins. Im happy to help get this one back up and running so we can get 8bit some more attention.

Why does the wallet links NEVER work? I have tried multiple times a day for the past few weeks and never get access. Can we get a working upload link? This could be the next CHC because of the masternode but we have to have working links in order to set this up.

Because they are connected to the public seed nodes and those seed nodes broadcast this chain to them.

They are at different block (not this one displayed) because their wallet is disabled. So actually you do not know at which block they are. I was also thinking about moving my coins from the cold wallet to staking wallet, but amount I own is too small to speed things up. However, all those things are not essential here.

That's why I said that if Cryptopia will lose a single coin a single coin on rolling back we, as community, will refund it. It's Bittrex delisting us at the moment so I am trying to make sure no one will lose his coins when they will remove the wallet. Thus my goal is to let people withdraw their coins as soon as possible.

I guess you should contact Vitalik Buterin, maintainer of 2nd (market cap) cryptocurrency and talk to him about golden rules of crypto...
The sad facts are:
- no one cares about golden rules
- repo owners define checkpoints, so developers overcome golden rules
- check point servers overcome golden rules
- if golden rule had been decider then most of alts would have had to die within few weeks after start, that's why people follow devs, not the chain
- if golden rule had been decider then 8BIT would have had to die several times because of the multiple forks
- weakness of 8BIT code making it unable (or taking ages) to reconnect bigger amount of blocks is actually an advantage since it prevents 51% attack, this is a serious golden rule violation but provides extra safety as long as use this code (while I have announced that this code should be replaced with a fresh code base - so this violation is temporary thing - not a standard)

Feel free to take over Bittrex wallet/chain recovery process, I have no a single coin there (my 8BITs have been withdrawn in 2015) so I am not taking any benefits here and therefore not gonna enforce my actions.

Finally, when we talk about PoS-coins especially with often diff adjustment, the golden rule meets a serious trouble. Let's assume higher minting power becomes delayed or stopped or just disconnected from the most of nodes for some reason. Also, once disconnected does not produce blocks for some short period. Meanwhile, smaller power keeps minting and the chain continues. Because we often adjust diff, then the smaller power quickly starts to produce blocks in designed time. At the end of the day we can have two chains - longer one with much smaller minting power and shorter one with much higher one... And because bigger power operates on much higher diff it will never catch it up.

It is not possible in Bitcoin as diff there is adjusted every 2000+ blocks (also adjustment is limited), so smaller power is not able to catch up the bigger one. But with all those typical PoS alts with insignificant number of staking nodes it's actually extremely easy.

What makes you think so...? If Bittrex is on the right chain, why the blocks there are delayed so much (last block received  more than 10 hours ago!).
Here are the numbers according to what is shown on respective websites right now:
Bittrex (https://bittrex.com/Status) - is on block 968423
Cryptopia (https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/CoinInfo) - is on block 971352

Bittrex is about 3000 blocks behind!
As we all know, the right chain is the longest chain, this is the golden rule of crypto, isn't it?

My masternodes are on the same chain as Cryptopia, they have 14 and 36 connections respectively, and chain moves fast, just as it should. So I assume the majority of the network is on the longest chain too.

Bittrex is on the right chain. If cryptopia is on the wrong chain, they will be asked to use a right chain and refunded in case of lost transactions by the community.

Thanks for sharing your experience. You guys are lucky. My test withdrawals to Cryptopia were lost (done about 15 hours ago). Luckily I've tested with small amounts.

Probably few days ago Bittrex was on the right chain. However now its shows "The last block update occurred 821 minutes ago.", while I can clearly see blocks generated every minute.
I contacted them, letting them know they are on the wrong chain. No answer yet.

I been trying to get my coins off the Bittrex exchange, but my wallet on my laptop, on my pc, office, all won't sync. Fortunately, I read on here that many moved the coins over to cryptopia. I set up a new account and moved the coins across in the morning. I can confirm it takes no more than 2 hours for the coins to be confirmed

wallet for linux?

This is getting worse - looks like Bittrex is on its own fork, and its impossible to get coins out. Their fork is moving slowly, and most probably is far behind the real chain...

I tried to transfer few coins from Bittrex to Cryptopia, as well as to my local wallet. Both withdrawals went nowhere...

I will try to let them know they are on a fork, but not sure whether they will resync or not. BTW, the official block explorer is stuck and is about 3000 blocks behind the chain, which my wallet is on.

Anyone was able to get coins out of Bittrex? Looks like tney are trapped, and Bittrex is going to remove rhe 8BIT wallet soon, so coins could be lost forever.

8bit, i followed your procedure and now i started out 13 hours behind.  so that part worked.   now i'm on block 965014 (10hours behind), still on just "connect" and it's throwing out Orphans left and right.   still problems. 

The wallet broke.

There is no confirmation.

8bit.conf
I downloaded a fresh blocks.tgz  ( http://www.8-bit.ga/STATIC-ASSETS/blocks.tgz ),unzip ~/.8bit , run 8bit-qt -rescan

The problem did not resolve.
Tell me what to do next?

Now in the console like this:

Fair point. I didn't know how it works, i thought person that publishes the coin puts website. I will do this now.

Ask the person who wrote a first post.

It's because you have not contacted coinmarketcap to tell them that they should post a link to a website.

Why is the first post pointing to www.8bitcoin.org?
Also on coinmarketcap there is no website at all, its really important there is, because thats how most people find coins.

Nonononono. Please follow this approach:

1. Remove database/ txleveldb/ blk0001.dat from your wallet directory

2. Download blocks.tgz from http://www.8-bit.ga/#download

3. Extract blocks.tgz in your wallet directory (so you will have a new database/ txleveldb/ blk0001.dat created there)

4. Remove all addnode / connect entries from your 8bit.conf and add following:


5. Run your 8bit wallet with -rescan switch

6. Enjoy the blockchain. At least as long as will not make a surprise


It will be never fixed as even if, blockchain is too bloated to be still used. Start from scratch will happen.
