barwheezy, i have just invested in your Noribits on nanotokens. if you are succesful in lowering the blocktime, please offer me an insight on how it is done. i'm afraid i might kill my coin

retarget is the issue, blocktime is fine

oh, i see. seems to be a combination of the issue for me. retarget is only happening every 48 hours which makes for some sluggish spells. anywho, sorry for the thread jack brother. i'll hit you up sometime.

Nope. Currently, retarget is set every 60 blocks, which is about 2hours at regular block time (~2min.). Last retarget was too long due to a spike in hashrate, pushing a high target on the network, which then caused a massive drop in hashrate. Block time for the network increased to about 20~30mn instead of 2.

For those worried about their coins, changing retarget rules will not kill your coins. It will only change the way difficulty is adjusted at retargets, and prevent issues like we've seen yesterday.

Should we have a vote on whether to take Noirbits off of coinchoose until the adjustments are made? It can be taken off if a dev contacts sal002

I vote to leave it on.

I vote leave it on CoinChoose.

Weakness has been identified, and is being addressed. The value of Noirbits coincides with the introduction to CoinChoose, leave it on there. It introduces it to the masses, and once they research it, they will see the benefits of having a real devteam behind the Coin.

Once the patch comes out, it will be OK.

Are you guys changing the difficulty retarget?.. because if so you need to be very vocal to all interested parties. HYC died shortly after that and ELC is struggling to survive. There has to be over a hundered Noirbits clients in the wild that will all need to update too.

we havent finalized everything yet, we are hoping to announce an update soon and have it effective in two days, first we have to agree here.

Two days might be a bit short notice...

So I think the proposed change is that we go from 2 hour retargets to 1 (every 30 blocks), with a max of 4 hours (with a block, if it's been more than 4 hours since a retarget, then a retarget occurs with that block). This seems good to me, and I think will clean up the current problem with a ton of added hash, then having it removed.

LOOK at that PRICE RISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wohoo. Glad a bought a boatload in the 0.00003 range (although now I wish I had bought more than 7000). Up to 12k. Makes me want to work to finish my site quickly, and set it up to only take noirbits. Is there a version of the daemon which easily connects to javascript (coffeescript)?
