Topic: [ANN] AEON [2019-09-27: Upgrade to version 0.13.0.0 ASAP HF@1146200 Oct 25] - page 121. (Read 625666 times)

Here are more details about your question : https://www.reddit.com/r/Aeon/comments/6hzkho/has_aeonpoolcom_started_scamming/

Nope, just a difficulty growth. The trend is +100m in 3 days. Total network hashrate is 3.5+ MH/sec for now, twice as before. So, it was some time when this pool was >50% of network hashrate, and now it's about 1/4 or somethin. It's good for coin though.

mining wise I don get it one day I get a certain amount of Aeons, and the next day it is 50% fewer coins with the same hash power.  I'm on aeon-pool.com is he stealing our coins?

Syncing wallets has nothing to do with the availability of a particular exchange.

Of course the price does, so if anyone wants to dump their coins today, I'm sure there are plenty of people who will buy them up cheaply.

Regardless, I'm going to continue to mine a little and buy a few coins here and there. I think there is long term potential in this coin and the community is really coming together right now.

I suggest to everyone considering investment in Aeon to play a bit with the wallet. It is extremely challenging to use it for large transfers, also incredibly slow. Daemon will eat your computer alive, the code is really a from the stone age. It would be a nice little alternative to Monero if there would be an existing development..

@thehihoguy

ok was not sure what you meant yes I used sudo ^^  noob as I said.

Many thanks, I'll do some ggling and try to fix this in the next days I'll let you know if I find the solution.

By that i mean did you use "sudo"

Hmm you'd have to google that, im not as well versed in ubuntu as i would like to hehe
lemme know any progress you make, would love to know the reason for this issue too.


@lespristy
thanks for the info, i updated my guides accordingly to let the reader choose between ip and domain:)

this will only matter if Aeon won't get delisted from bittrex

Looks like people are using my node to sync their wallets. That's great!

I do have a domain associated with it, which you can use instead of the IP address.

node.aeon-wallet.net

Start simplewallet with the option "--daemon-address node.aeon-wallet.net:11181"

You could also just use "aeon-wallet.net" which currently resolves to the same IP (34.201.20.65), but if that ever changes, I will keep the DNS record updated for the "node" subdomain. When I add more public nodes, there will be a node2.aeon-wallet.net, node3, etc.

You need to use another miner - aeon specific one like https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig-aeon on windows or https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig/releases with --algo=cryptonight-lite multiplatform! cpuminer is kind of buggy not good for aeon...!

Sorry, but what do you mean by "start as root?"
Internet connection could be a reason... bandwidth isn't used a lot but this computer had no wi-fi card, I bought a cheap one a few days ago but maybe it's not really optimized (or good enough, even I'm not really far from the box).
Maybe there is a cmd to check the bandwidth?

BTW thanks already for all these informations, I'll try the different options you mentioned and see if I can find a way ;-)

Before adding an additional swap, make some checks during the sync and observe the behaviour.
"free" for RAM usage
"swapon -s" for swap usage
Repeat it and observe if you hit the end of your swap




Yes, in short, that is correct.


Hmmm your cpu should be capable up to 8 thread (6 if you wanna still use your pc without lags for browsing). Did you try to start it as root as well?
Hmmm hard to tell at this point. Another source for this kind of problem can be internet connection. Make sure your bandwidth isnt used by torrents or other things. A boo usually means your share was sent but not accepted due to it being solved already by someone else.

Yep, I used exit, and when I started again it was stuck at the same point.
I will try to create another swapfile to see if it's better. Do you think I need to create another one (same size) or resize the existing one?


 I meant if I have not enough resources to sync entirely aeond and run a private node, maybe I can pool mine as an alternative?
Because I can sync my wallet from a public node if I can't do it from mine, and then join a pool with my wallet address instead of mining from my daemon.
Is that correct correct or do I miss something in the global understanding of the process?


CPU is I7-2600k, 4 cores.
I did try like you mention here. It's not caused by the pool, I tried with aeon-pool like suggested g8tguy (thx), same message with the booo

You can just create another swapfile if you have enough HDD space, it will then use both swaps to balance out the private node. else public note if you want it only for the wallet function (see tuto Setup AEON Wallet using Ubuntu (light) ).

If message is white, it can be ignored usually. Btw did you use "exit" to close the aeond daemon? to save progress and then start it again?


Pool mining has nothing to do with running a node;)


What CPU do you have?
Did you start CPU miner like this:
./cpuminer -a cryptolight -o stratum+tcp://serenity.hiddenjadestone.com:3333 -u YOUR_AEON_WALLET_ADDRESS -p x -t 4
?
Maybe try it with another pool for comparison as suggested above and if it still doesnt work, we can confirm its not caused by the pool.


Glad to help:)

Use https://aeon-pool.com/

@ thehihoguy

First of all thank you very much for your help !
Actually I have only 4Gb RAM, 4Gb swap. I see on your tuto on hidden jadestone (Thx for the good work !!!) that 12Gb is necessary.
Maybe it's the problem? If so, maybe I can't run a private node for the moment?
to answer your other questions, I downloaded last repository 9.12.
The messages are white. I waited maybe a couple of hours before to launch the process back, but not much longer. On the sync I launched back I'm now stuck on 415117, but I will wait longer to see if things get better.

I also followed your tutorial (CPU mining with Ubuntu) to try to mine with your pool, to test an alternative solution to run a node, but something went wrong at the end of the process :
1) I refreshed my wallet from the remote chain @ /u/Lespristy ----> ok
2) build the cpuminer ---->ok
3)) when I connect to the pool and try to mine, I have this message :

booooo is in red, instead of the green yes! I see in yout tutorial.
It does not change even if I let it run for a moment.

So I assume it's not good 

Again thank you for the help, but mainly for your work on hidden jadestone, It's very useful for noobs like me, but it's also great for the community to have such places with resources and references.

For general setup on ubuntu: https://www.hiddenjadestone.com/2017/06/24/aeon/setup-aeon-wallet-using-linux/

To help you, i need to know how much RAM you have? Did you download the newest Aeon repository 9.12? Also are those messages RED or just violet/white/green? Some errors can be ignored sometimes. Did you try to wait another hour after this message popped up?

Lemme know

UP!

help please? I've tried to sync aeond several times, each time I have this error message.

2017-Jun-26 12:08:45.307892 [P2P7][79.143.186.246:11180 OUT]Sync data returned unknown top block: 284864 -> 839969 [555105 blocks behind]

When it happens, I delete the blockchain from /.aeon and restart, but it stops on a block again. I noticed it's not the same block each time ; 1st time it was this one, then around 379500, once around 550000, then 379500 again...

A trick to avoid or fix that?
I built from scratch, ubuntu 16.04

Which may be precisely what was intended, so they can be bought up cheaply.

@Febo. I am not talking about the price. I am talking about the instability of Aeon itself. This is the second time that Bittrex has stopped deposits and withdrawals this year because of problems with the protocol. We are not even sure what really happened, and there are some insinuations of a 51% attack on Reddit.

It may lead some holders to doubt the stability of the coin and some may decide to dump them.
