Wow...that was a quick response!  Is it a safe and secure GUI?

GUI wallet any time soon?  What a pain...

Agree...it's a lot to get used to all at once.

How big is the genesis block? Just curious.

I think you meant the complete blockchain - currently around 600 MB

Has anyone succeeded to mine with GPUs of 1GB??

I'm aware that eth/shift GPU mining need at least 2GB of RAM...but still...Lots of coders here made miracles already, why not succeed with 1GB GPUs.


Its same hashing algo so NO

This is probably been asked before, but I'll ask anyways: How long is the POW period? Approximately, how many Ether will be created during the POW period?

A Ethereum clone has already made a GUI wallet, SHIFT.


ETH does have a GUI wallet, AlethZero. see https://github.com/ethereum/homebrew-ethereum

I havent used it and I suppose you need some skill to install it, tho not a great deal. I am not sure if it works for all platforms/OSs either. I heard about an unofficial java wallet but will not use any wallets unless blessed by the team. I am quite certain many wallets wil begin to appear in the following days/weeks. I would happily pay a few ETH for a nice one.

In the meantime I use geth and the few java commands i need to check balance, send etc. Perhaps a tutorial is in order.

IIRC the team has tentatively suggested they might go PoS after 12 months of PoW (expected to mine ~12 million ETH n the next 12 months iirc). HOWEVER these plans might change and I personally would not object to the PoW mining phase lasting even longer. Miners help build a community. It is worth remembering Etehreum is still in alpha phase and the devs are learning the nature of this 'Etehr' as the network evolves. I know nothing of SHIFT and I am too focused on Ethereum to pay it any attention at this time.

Also - Is there a way to store the genesis block on an external drive?  -datadir didn't work for me.

monero had physical minted coins before their gui wallet came out as well.  minting coins is a pretty big fad around here.

I stand corrected.  The Second crypto with a physical coin before a GUI wallet.  Smiley

I stand corrected too!  =)

http://etherplan.com/ (uses Ethereum blockchain) >> https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/3j4e6u/etherplan_welcomes_juan_llanos_and_nick_szabo_to/

thats Nick Szabo as an etherplan advisor.

confirmed by Szabo here: https://twitter.com/nickszabo4/status/638480630070702080


Ethereum is not a crypto currency coin but a open source software platform.

Ethereum is somewhat comparable with "Red Hat Linux" on blockchain tech. Yeh you may can build on it but open source software is not an investment to expect financial return.  On ethical grounds, Yeh sure. As soon as the flood of copys with improved modified code hits the marked the bagholders of this unlimited platform start crying.

Bitcoin and Ethereum are both open-source projects: the former is the blockchain of money and the latter the blockchain of things. Whilst Ethereum is a platform the ETH are tokens of value within it and the value of the network can be measured against the value of ETH.


He's just another nobody…

Yes I am. But Szabo sure ain't.

Balance is now down further seems every 5 minutes. Damn crooks.

I'm going to solomine.
Good choice, solomining is always stable

No luck in solo mining anymore (only if you have a farm its OK). We small fishes are late for solo, the only way for 1-4GPU owners is pool.
Its normal that balance jumps up&down.
At moment it shows more but eventualy gets on real estimate balance.

I solo mine with up to 1 block a day.

Without doubt the most exciting project in crypto today. A platform, not a coin. Here's to Alan Turing and Satoshi and Vitalik. We stride in your steps.

The only limit to ETH is our imaginations.

Oh, child_harold who betrayed tons of coins is now friend of ETH?   Grin

Who cares.  He's just another nobody troll.  Let him go on his way.

The new 0.9.41 ethminer gives me this error:

Code:

That is on a GTX 980 with this config:

Can anyone help me out with this error?

What is ETH?....a coin?...a platform?....what the heck is it?
