Topic: [ANN] PHO Photon blake256- MERGE MINE 6 COINS- NO PREMINE - POW ONLY 4+ YRS - page 37. (Read 99194 times)

The problem is in the photon source, (and I have pushed it so many times to github and don't know why it won't arrive) the level db make file is missing , download this (the make file ) to the leveldb directory inside src

https://github.com/BlueDragon747/Blakecoin/blob/master/src/leveldb/Makefile

from that directory

sudo make libleveldb.a libmemenv.a

if someone can put a gitpull with that file in it i will merge it, i honestly don't understand why it never shows up on github ....

Has anyone compiled the latest version on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS?


I tried to bypass this by copying the Makefile from Blakecoin:
blakecoin-master/src/leveldb/Makefile
to
photon-master/src/leveldb/Makefile

But I just get other errors.

Yes, it must be different Update your wallets guys!

This version is different, than the april 21 version right?

Ipressive work!

Here is a picture of the new updated code running and the block crawler is updated also

Almost finished , if you run a node for Photon, please rebuild your daemon with the most recent changes on github

If you rebuilt after my first 'auxpow' commit you do not need to redownload the blockchain.

If you are using an older build you must redownload the blockchain after backing up your wallet

There are lots of people connected to the network , Photon version 80901 is the most recent and correct build.

everyone please update your client to the latest Photon build ---- merged mining will begin in 3 days

Merged mining will start in 3 days

It is ready now but it cannot be released until everyone upgrades their clients

Here is a new windows qt build with the new 'heartbleed' fixed open ssl version and new checkpoints also

http://www.mediafire.com/download/q1qtj6brtnvs7rh/Photon_Win_Qt_8.9.1.1_.7z       version 8.9.1.1   


Updated source on github is available also

https://github.com/photonproject/photon/tree/master/src


More information will follow very soon  --- exciting times ---- Congratulations to BlueDragon747 the developer of Blake Coin for making it possible.

I did not want to cut everyone off the network suddenly but if you don't update before we start merged mining (even if you do not plan to participate in merged mining) you may not be able to send or receive coins.  EVERYONE MUST UPDATE THEIR CLIENT     

I will get the main post of this page changed as soon as possilbe. 

no problem , hope you got connected ok

Thank you 

Thank you for the add !!

Checking your site out now !!

Please see the guide in this thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annwwwcryptocoinrankcom-for-sale-for-sale-for-sale-579901 if you want to get your Twitter News to work!
Cheers

need some nodes, wallet will not sync

excellent question !!


the resource I am studying currently is here

https://github.com/cjdelisle/namecoin-qt/blob/master/contrib/merged-mine-proxy


any input from the pro's of mining out there would be welcome


I doubt anyone who knows about merged mining of bitcoin /namecoin /ix, io ect... will help since they don't want any competition however you never know

@cinnamon_carter Thanks for your work. Still mining and mining...

Any hint how to setup/test the merged mining now?

Note ----- UPDATED SOURCE ON GITHUB AND NEW WINDOWS WALLET AVAILABLE NOW ------

This includes changes for 'merged mining' with Blake Coin and testing is almost done and ready to be rolled out to the masses.

Soon ..... you can mine Photon and it's parent coin Blake Coin at the SAME TIME.......NO SWITCHING......2 FOR 1.....

I also hear there are other Blake 256 coins in development that are being designed like Photon was to be 'merged mined' with Blake Coin.....

This is the future  !!!!

Right now (unless you are merge mining bitcoin and namecoin) you have to decide what you will mine and you have to pick a coin..........

There are auto switch pools but we all know the reasons why they are not perfect......

This is called the AUXPOW update of Photon with checkpoints added also since it adds the necessary code for 'Joining' with Blake Coin

-----When you install this new client back up your Photon wallet first and delete everything in your roaming folder except your wallet.dat file and you .conf file.........you must redownload the entire blockchain again with this new release but it moves quick --------------

Feel free to check out the updated source code on github

https://github.com/photonproject/photon


Here is your updated windows wallet

http://www.mediafire.com/download/0a8fd9cctyt8gw2/Photon+for+merged+mining+updated+april+21+2014+.7z


As soon as final testing on merged mining is complete more information will be posted for Photon and Blake Coin and ?

I would like to also add that NONE of this would be possible without the brilliant work of BlueDragon747 and his Blake256 Algo......

A few reminders........ as the developer of Photon I would like to point out.......



The Blake 256 algo has very strong advantages from a hardware standpoint and a 'speed' standpoint which are fully described in the op.

As more and more coins pop up all the time some people are now in a state of mass confusion as to 'what to mine' ... many coins are released that drop or halve awards in days or weeks.  Both Blake Coin and Photon were NOT designed this way.  So if you get in now early you benefit from lower difficulty.  For people who want to get involved several years from now the block awards are still going to pay out the same.  This is fair and not tilted to benefit 'a few' vs 'everyone'. 

Merged mining is an opportunity for coins to 'join forces' instead of being in competition for each others hash power which also makes the blockchains of each coin faster and harder to attack.  In the future people who can mine several coins at once are going to have a hard time going back to the alternatives that only allow them to mine one coin.   

Blake Coin and Photon are designed for long term use.  As time goes on weak coins may not survive. The alt coin world changes very very quickly.

Stability , reliable and honest developers, fair awards, fast with hardware advantages and excellent security are the future.

You can mine the blake 256 algo with a cpu, gpu , or fpga board.  ASIC technology is possible but not currently available.

I am not telling you to drop every other coin and ONLY mine Photon and Blake Coin.

I am telling you that we have long term plans to support these coins and you should include them in your mining regularly.

Please support the exchanges that offer Photon trading which are

Atomic Trade (who have recently expanded their lineup of coins)  https://www.atomic-trade.com/

AND

AllCrypt (who have many coins for trade also , impressive lineup) https://www.allcrypt.com/market







 

Awesome , thanks I will get the main post updated, !!

Photon has been added to AllCrypt.com!

ok sorry, i did not mean to offend.....

Blue Dragon the dev of Blake Coin was kind enough to set this pool up.

The auto payout's are set as they out of technical necessity.

Also a few people tried and one successfully robbed the pool , from my understanding.

Since BlueDragon said it was not that big a deal I left it go.

If I really wanted to I could probably trace those responsible for this little stunt.

Coin networks are not anonymous in any way although if you know what you are doing you can 'cloak' your identity a bit.....

Still, most people using the coin clients really don't know these things.......

I am letting them go this time........

Personally I prefere to solomine,  Believe me I am greatful to BlueDragon for running the pool at his own time and expense however
solo mining is always fun.  Give it a shot .......
