i'm getting a lot of messages like this:

******* exception encountered *******
ProcessMessages(tx, 798 bytes) : Exception 'CDataStream::read() : end of data' caught, normally caused by a message being shorter than its stated length

in %APPDATA%\Roaming\PPCoin\debug.log

i dont know what it means or if it is important..., miners are working correctly (at least, so it seems)

Someone want to send any amount of PPC to my address to make sure its working please? (Even .01)

yes ,
i got it working, had to restart ppcoind.exe  

only mining locally, want to try on your pool tomorrow, i'm going to sleep now

edit:
fyi im using poolers cpu miner for best performance, it looks like it is ~10Mhash faster

minerd -a sha256d -o http://127.0.0.1:9902 -u user -p pass

(and on the other machine i use cgminer for the gpu)

Did you do
?

ive installed it on 2 computers, now i thought it was smart to connect one miner to the other computer like this

bitcoin-miner-64.exe -t 4 -o http://ppcoinrpc:[email protected]:9902
but it says:
HTTP 403: Forbidden
HTTP 403: Forbidden
0 kHash/s          4 CPU threads

when i use:
bitcoin-miner-64.exe -t 4 -o http://ppcoinrpc:[email protected]:9902

it does work

Using CPU (4 threads)
12.92 MHash/s      4 CPU threads

i've added these lines in ppcoin.conf:
rpcallowip = 127.0.0.1
rpcallowip = 192.168.0.102

is that correct way to add more ips?  something seems to be wrong, anyone knows how to connect one computer miner to the ppcoind server that is running on the other?  


edit: i guess i have to setup ssl like this https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Enabling_SSL_on_original_client_daemon 

but havent been able to do this... because i'm on windows... , tried connecting to NothinG's pool, also does not work (same connection problems) ...

I saw this thread

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/wts-ppcoin-for-btc-new-energy-efficient-crypto-currency-102329

He is selling them for 0.001 each.

Is there an exchange up already?

Current difficulty is 3886, approx 1266 coins per block

So I saw people buying PPCoin's at 0.001 or something, what is the current profitability estimate? What is the current difficulty? I might set my backup pool when I'm not hopping to NothinG's if they are profitable. I want to see how proof of stake ends up working long-term.

It's working now, so all good

Good job creating the forum btw

I'm looking into this now thank you for joining

Just signed up to the forum, but I get "You are not allowed to post new content in the forum."

I am really touched by the enthusiasm and dedication by the small community we have now. I will try to do my best 

We now have our own dedicated Forum for PPCoin discussion   http://ppcointalk.org feel free to join and use and give me feedback and tips please .... especially the "forum design...and general mods" 

It's tough to get an exact figure in advance as the list of inputs are selected by the client automatically. Although this per-kilobyte fee is actually a Bitcoin legacy. People may think Bitcoin has no fees, but there is only a small area of the block reserved for fee-free transactions in Bitcoin. Once transaction volume is way up and it would cause confusions to Bitcoin users as they do need to pay fee.

Would it be possible to add within the next few release a method to determine the price of the transaction?

Oh right I stand corrected that you may pay more than 1 cent with sendtoaddress. Transaction fee is 1 cent per kilobyte.

Hm, sending 50k freshly mined PPC (should be ~20 inputs) already caused 3 cent fee.

If you need help with the forum (such as hosting [drop me a pm], forum design...and general mods), let us know.

I'm going to try with sendtoaddress and see how that works for now. After it gets to the point where people are withdrawing a lot and causing transaction fees to skyrocket, I'll start working on a script that does a sendmany. Currently, it's setup that the user sets aside 1 PPC in their account to handle their transaction (done automatically). I can set it up as a percentage donation, they will be listed in the sendmany letting the pool (from donations) pay for the transaction. I'm not really sure how that will work, but it at least helps me figure out where to spend donations.

I'll start logging all the data soon. I've still got a lot more work with the script to detect new blocks, as well as a script that will convert the ppcoind to database for my transactions. I'm getting to the point where transactions are going to be hard to read after ~100. Stack that with the average amount of people on the site at once, and you've got yourself a hell of a server load. Anyways, I'll send as much information as I can to the users (with their API key) letting them decide how they want to make their own graphs.


In these transactions:
1-I've sent myself (from the pool, to my home wallet) 6482.75326 PPC.
2-The pool received the transaction from (3'd TXID).
3-Shows the pool sending 1 PPC to the pool's wallet.

Looks like each transaction cost 0.01 PPC.

[Edit]: Looks like 6482.75326 PPC showed up in my home wallet after 2 confirmations.

Just wanted to say I am working on a Chat forum specifically for PPCoin and hopefully should have up in a day or two

also RE the transaction fees NothingG, your going to have to have a play with a various send amounts and many address send amounts so... I would rather have a nice lot of data to analyse ro charts and graphs to compare in the future, and i'd be happy to donate 20PPC (should be more than enough for 1000's of transactions right??) from my mining shares for such a purpose if u can record and display the data in nice charts and graphs etc or send me the raw data??

Hope you all have a great weekend

Fees are calculated automatically by ppcoind. It's not included in the send amount so if you have no leftover balance to cover the fee then transaction cannot be sent.

Generally speaking sendtoaddress would incur 1 cent fee and sendmany would incur maybe more depending on how many different addresses you are sending to. After transaction is sent you can use listtransactions to see the exact fee paid for the transaction.
