If you are using the same formula which takes difficulty, and block reward, in order to calculate btcp profitability, you might get very wrong results.  Usually, for equihash, part of the formula is (difficulty * 2^13).  Based on my results mining btcp for the last 30+ hours, such factor should be 2^5.  I have 17900 sol/s of hashpower.  This got me about 0.5 btcp per 24h at suprnova. Difficulty was high at the very beginning, but for the last 30h is steady and lower.

Moving the imported coins to a Z address happens automatically when you confirm the sweep dialog (maybe there was no such dialog in 1.0.0)

Then don't do this, ie do not use their wallet
Maybe you got me wrong. I'm fine with this, because I wanted to move them to a Z address anyway. Still it should be mentioned that it's mandatory (is it with cli, too?). Alternatively this necessity should be removed. Apart of that AFAIK there's no other BTCP wallet that supports (importing from?) Z addresses yet.

This error message reminds me of the old Microsoft helicopter joke.  Wink

Moving the imported coins to a Z address happens automatically when you confirm the sweep dialog (maybe there was no such dialog in 1.0.0). Now that there is such a dialog anyhow, I don't understand why it doesn't mention the necessity to do so later manually in case you don't want to have it done immediately.

Yes, really shxtty stuff, there are other issues like https://github.com/BTCPrivate/BitcoinPrivate/issues/124

More funny in https://github.com/BTCPrivate/bitcoin-private-full-node-wallet/issues/32 is:

"balances from fork need to be sent in full to a Z address before being able to be spent normally.
provide more user-friendly error message when attempted."

I have some hard time to believe it, why? requirement of their wallet only? save some time before it is sent to an exchange? Then please someone try my tool, there are no reasons why you should send your coins to a z-address first

PS: and indeed we can't trust their explorer, whether down, not showing the utxos before the fork when up or strange info (intentional?)

i created a new T-address in the wallet. and i wanted to test it. while trying to send the coins i received this message.



are you kidding me? an address generated with the Full-Node Desktop Wallet (OSX).......

image wont be shown....

"... does not appear to be a valid BTCP address. BTCP addresses start with n1, nx or zz!"

CarlOrff , In what pool do you extract the BTSZ?
Thanks
There is a lot of pools to mine BTCz.
I use many of them and time to time, I change.
My mathematics was based with SuprNova.

*Brute force will solve any Bitcoin problem*
I find it kind of amazing that a coin of this hype magnitude does not even have an exchange lined up at launch or within 24 hours?

Used to be even a shitcoin would be listed on Bittrex as soon as it launched lol I guess times have really changed or the exchange operators have doubts....

Not sure what to think....  Huh


Times are changing, im sure exchanges will be demanding a payment for the coin add.
I have been watching this reddit post for the last few hours.   https://www.reddit.com/r/BitcoinPrivate/comments/824lwv/bittrex_is_a_lot_shadier_than_you_think/


one does not simply dox all bittrex operatives Wink lol

The Electrum wallet provided still will not sweep and send segwit pks. The send gets an error and the tx is rejected by the network. Please fix this. People with segwit pks cannot claim their BTCP.

Again, you can try https://github.com/Ayms/bitcoin-transactions

I mined BTCP since a little bit more 24h and I made my mathematics.
Finally, to earn more money with BTCP mining than with BTCz mining, BTCP will reach more than 135 €.
I don't know and I don't think BTCP will reach this 135 € in short terms (even long term).

Finally, I'm going back to mine BTCz.
Good luck all.
Yep I switched back yesterday afternoon.  Grin

Not that BTCP is hopeless but just not profitable atm...... will keep an eye on it

the wallet (Full-Node Desktop Wallet) just wont synch to 100%. download is just to slow.

Did you try to download the blockchain like explained below?

https://support.btcprivate.org/561209-Why-wont-the-Full-Node-Desktop-Wallet-sync-past-98-99

For me this didn't work. btcpd complained about missing peers.dat or missing uxto_snapshot. With peers.dat and uxto_snapshot I got no connections. Sooner or later btcpd gave up either way.

btcprivate.conf:
rpcuser=...
rpcpassword=...
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1  <-- with or without
addnode=dnsseed.btcprivate.org
rpcport=7932  <-- with or without
