Topic: [ANN] PHO Photon blake256- MERGE MINE 6 COINS- NO PREMINE - POW ONLY 4+ YRS - page 34. (Read 99194 times)

there is a cpu miner but with network hash rate so high a cpu has little chance of success also i don't think the cpu miner can be used on the merged pools.......

threre was some discussion that blake 256 was ported to cuda miner

any cpuminer for this one?

• solo mining from wallet with 1.59 GHash network is not an option any more
• cgminer is for ATI, but I have nVidia card
• ccminer and cudaminer don't have releases with compute 2.x

Hey, thanks for the reply. I didn't had much time time to read this thread... Yes, my bad, forgot about addnode. Problem solved, thanks

Did you create photon.conf? The .conf file contains addnode lines which give the client peers to connect to.

I'm mining on BlueDragon747s pool for a while, great job with the merged mining pool!

I do have a problem with my wallet it gets no connection to the network. I'm using Version 8.9.1.1 with WIN 8.1, any ideas how to fix this issue? I already checked the Firewall, everything is alright.

the purpose of this thread is to discuss Photon,

I have not 'turned' on anyone.

I will agree with you.

The behaivour of most people in this forum is beyond all good taste.


There are so few real people with serious posts of anything of value to contribute it amazes me people still come here.

I certainly do appreciate everyone who mines Photon.


There can be no proof of work if no one shows up to do the work.

Please , let's not allow the 'atmosphere' of this forum to turn us crazy !!

That being said i get a little crazy myself sometimes just like anyone else.

Just remember, there are no other women in this forum I know of.

That alone makes me hesitant to come here but I overcame that after some time.

When more women get involved in the world of cryptocurrency it will certainly improve tenfold.

Please re-read my original post that you quoted.  Just to clarify, I DID NOT AT ANY POINT ASK FOR HELP WITH SETTINGS.  I was attempting to offer help to the person who was asking.  Quite why you felt the need to call me a liar for doing so is beyond me.  As I said in a DM, when the good ones turn on you it's time to leave.  I used to consider you one of the good ones.  No longer.

Half of bitcointalk is populated by children.  The other half, it seems, is populated by arrogant, conceited, narcissists.  I'm gone, good luck with your projects, with your attitude you're going to need it.

I got it fixed thanks. I was spelling the file ext wrong. config instead of conf. hahaha my bad. thanks for the help

The coin works fine in every setting I tested it. The only way I can explain you getting that error would be running a client of Photon that was from the initial release , before the code was modified for merged mining.

Also to address the post above where I questioned about how you are showing an intensity of 16 on a miner that to my knowledge does not go up that high the member states you built it yourself.  OK , most people who are skilled at the level to compile cg miner would not need help setting it up to mine.

And yes I did post this 7 months ago

https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/1446-if-you-want-to-mine-blake-coin-with-a-gpu-here-is-some-information/


I was solo mining and the build of miner for solo mining allows intensity up to 20 , so you are correct in stating that I posted settings for mining Blake 256 that allow an intensity of 20. 

The miner I have for the merged pools (that I think is the same one everyone has /please correct me if I am wrong)
goes to 14 max. 

I wanted to clairify this.

Also again I think there are ways to optimize the .cl file to get higher hash rates.  I have not figured them out yet.

If I was solo mining (which I would not do when I can merge mine 5 coins at the same time) I would certainly recommend the builds of reaper with my settings (for a 7970) over cg miner, not only did it give slightly higher hash rates, i did a lot of testing and it seemed to solve more blocks.

I posted this in October when the Blake Coin project was very new and I was not involved with it at the time.

If it was not for the great work of those who optimized blake 256 for open cl most of us would be using cpu's.....

Show some respect for them.

The error is still no block sources available? Where did you place photon.conf? It should be created in C:/Users/username/AppData/Roaming/Photon/photon.conf .Have you given the program permission to access the internet through your firewall?

Still not working. I tried downloading the new wallet and photon.config:

listen=1
gen=0
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcuser=username
rpcpassword=password
rpcallowip=localhost
rpcport=8984
port=35556
gen=0
server=1
daemon=1
listen=1
addnode=162.243.101.139
addnode=72.23.74.166
addnode=62.219.234.143
addnode=78.26.209.208
addnode=162.243.101.139

addnode=107.170.123.55
addnode=218.146.3.80:3005
addnode=107.170.78.146

any clue?

The op is updated ----------  Mine 5 coins at the same time  ---------------


Also all pools are working despite the fact that they have been the subject of many ddos attacks and other types of attack.


To the person above having a problem setting up a wallet please make sure you are using the most recent release
available here

http://www.mediafire.com/download/4x9l018sgux08ez/photon+win+qt+8.9.1.1+upnp+enabled+.release.7z


set up your conf file properly

listen=1
    gen=0
    rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
    rpcuser=username
    rpcpassword=password
    rpcallowip=localhost
    rpcport=8984

Photon is working ---- and with the hashrate of the merged mining pools it is working with a high difficulty and network speed.

Strongly recommend only merged mining as solo mining is going to be out of reach now for anyone with 'normal' hashpower.

Also onl sale at Atomic Exchange and All Crypt 

Links all on the main page ---   Exciting times ---

Do you have all the addnode lines in your photon.conf?

Im getting no source block avaible too.

used photon.conf :

listen=1
gen=0
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcuser=sha0lin40
rpcpassword=1234
rpcport=8984
server=1
daemon=1
addnode=162.243.101.139

Am I missing something?

thanks

Mining Rig Rentals is the first (to my knowledge) rig rental site to support Blake-256!

Renters:

• Make rental choices based on "actual" hash rate. Their system tracks the past 24 hour hash rate with a moving average.
• Backup pools! Have you ever found yourself trying to be ready for a coin launch only to find out your first pool choice isn't up and running? Their system takes care of that, by letting you set up 5 pools in a fail over.
• Backup pools! Have you ever found yourself trying to be ready for a coin launch only to find out your first pool choice isn't up and running? Their system takes care of that, by letting you set up 5 pools in a fail over.

Rig owners:

• Website pool manager. Their system allows you to change what pool your miner is connected to right from the website. Allows 5 pools to be configured with fail over.
• Hash rate graphs!
• Algorithm choices include: Scrypt, Scrypt-N, x11, SHA-256, SHA3, and now Blake-256!
• There is no fee to use the site/service for the miner controls or hash rate graphs. You never have to list your rig for rent if you don't want to.

Not sure about the whole "renting thing?" No problem, it's 100% free to list your rig with their service and the backup pools/hashrate graphs are completely on the house. If you decide to try leasing your rig in the future, you will already be setup.

They have lots of website/interface improvements in the pipeline, with a very active development team.

this screen shot is fake


the build of cg miner you claim to be using will not allow intensity of 16


even if you built it from source (which i doubt as it is difficult and someone who knows how to do that could tune the gpu easily)
this is not possible

I suggest you check the Blake Coin thread as the discussion is much more active there on settings for different gpu's ect....

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=306894.0;topicseen


near the bottom of the thread i think some people are discussing different setups on different 'rigs' 

hope this helps you out and thanks for your support of the Blake 256 family

NOTE ---------

THIS IS AN UNOFFICIAL WALLET

USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK

I AM THE DEVELOPER OF PHOTON AND MAC WALLETS ARE NOT SUPPORTED AT THIS TIME

I HAVE NO WAY TO TEST THIS WALLET AND WHILE I APPRECIATE COMMUNITY SUPPORT I DON'T WANT TO BE ANSWERING QUESTIONS ABOUT IT.

I'm mining on a r9 290 and my intensity is set to 13. My memclock seems to be at 150 instead of 1247, is this because of the low intensity? I'm not familiar with blake algo but the pool said you should set your intensity low. I'm using the cgminer 3.1 as the more recent one would not work. What hashrate should I expect from a 290? The U is also much lower than the hashrate.
