How do we fight 51% attack if somebody with a lot of hashing power will try to take over the blockchain?

Right at this point it will probably not going to make sense as there is still not much value. If the coin gains value and hash rates remain low then it is a problem.

I think if the hashrate remains low then the coin won't have any value in the future. We'll just have to see. I am looking at https://github.com/zawy12 work as an option to mitigate hash attacks. Though I gave a reason a few pages back on why I might just leave it as is for now. After all, PoS works and transactions can still be transmitted. It's not like the blockchain stops, only mining does, until difficulty drops again. If people drop completely from PoW then that's it, no more new coins. It's kind of a quirky feature rather than a flaw. 51% is possible if attacker gains control of both consensus mechanisms, which is unlikely... I would hope.

Did anybody find ccminer with sha256q and --no-longpoll --no-getwork --no-stratum --coinbase-addr= ??

It's here ...
GPU MINER: https://github.com/pyritepirate/ccminer/tree/linux

You have to clone and build from this branch. It's Linux only for now and should work as intended.  I have no way of testing one for Windows, sorry. Hopefully someone nice in the community will contribute to a Windows version.



Here it is the windows version  x64 bit cuda 9.0 https://mega.nz/#!7dNmkAIT!l6qrRCB4edD1yw5zzW0joeuppP398eNIm2kBPp9rQaw
There is no --no-getwork --coinbase-addr= solo mining to wallet impossible

Code:
./ccminer -a sha256q -o http://127.0.0.1:6997 -u yourrpcusername -p yourrpcpassword
just set your pyrite.conf correctly
rpcuser=miner
rpcpassword=minerpass
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcallowip=192.168.0.103
rpcallowip=192.168.0.104
rpcallowip=192.168.0.105
rpcallowip=192.168.0.109
rpcport=6997
server=1
daemon=1
listen=1

I think that should work. Is it many rigs to one wallet or what are you trying to do? Does it work?

Is there any specific reason that sha256q hashing algo was chosen?

Also what version or date of the blackcoin code did you use for this fork?


The idea is to create a fair, mineable cryptocurrency
AWESOME FINALLY
protocol upgrades,
I have no plan to pay for an exchange listing,
this coin should take care of itself
Coin is one week old ... This is a fork of blackcoin, so codebase is pretty old.
Wish I was around when blackcoin started, i know a guy who retired with that coin

Code:
VERSION = 1.2.2

There was a coin around 2 years ago with similar parameters (sha256t),
I saw reference to that today elsewhere
It's called OCP now, you can check it out. So 2 years and some C++ later I'm the guy to continue original contributor's vision I guess. We'll see what happens.
Pat yourself on the back, you did something most people cant do, and not only that, you kept going to make it happen!

Well, there is https://github.com/bitbaba/bitgold that forked from some algo to sha256q a few months ago of which I wasn't aware of before. I made a pull request for sha256q to be added to tpruvot's ccminer repo and if accepted it should be included in his official releases. Pyrite is designed to be a store of value and reward scheme is quite unique. PoW/PoS hybrids were kind of big in 2014/15, but usually PoW and PoS rewards were designed to be the same so it was just a gimmick to end PoW quicker and switch to full PoS.

So the purpose of the coin is to be a currency/store of value, am I correct?

It has also unique combo of the blockchain parameters, POW/POS hybrid and new SHA256Q hashing algo.

The idea is to create a fair, mineable cryptocurrency. This is not a quick cash grab or an attempt at one. It's really that simple. No gimmicks, no hidden plan. I have some ideas in my mind for protocol upgrades, but it's too early to discuss and it'll just generate unnecessary weight on my shoulders with people asking for them every day. I also have no plan to pay for an exchange listing, however small the fee might be. I am a miner just like you and hold no premine/dev fee. Coin is one week old and already there is an issue with regards to difficulty adjustment. Maybe it was just an unfortunate event or maybe a deliberate act that a miner or group of miners joined the network last night with 200+ GH/s increasing difficulty tenfold, and then left after a short period of time. What you're seeing now is a delay in block production caused by that. If this was in fact deliberate and keeps repeating I'll have to address it quickly. I'm aware of the options that are out there. This is a fork of blackcoin, so codebase is pretty old.

VERSION = 1.2.2

No other reason than allowing cpu miners to mine it for a while. There was a coin around 2 years ago with similar parameters (sha256t), that launched and died soon after because community didn't pick up development. I loved it and mined it but nothing came out of it, nobody stepped up. It's called OCP now, you can check it out. So 2 years and some C++ later I'm the guy to continue original contributor's vision I guess. We'll see what happens.

My 21 core cpu data is the left column ... Before I turned on 2 1080ti GPU's. The right column is after I turned on 2 GPU's
My 21 cores have not received anything but I'm gonna let them run for a few hours and see. Please dont fry me lol, it would be expensive to replace, lol.

It's because between you checking on gpu someone hit a block. Diff adjuststment is erratic, because of low hashrate and large fluctuations.

Difficulty changes based on how often new blocks are found. With low network hash rates it is more about luck and that's why you see such fluctuations.

BTW, this sha256q algo on CPUs will probably not be able to compete with GPUs. GPUs will give a lot more hash rates.

Is it possible to mine using the wallet (or miner) solo using GPUs?

I know I can mine in a pool with gpus, and solo with CPUs...

sure, it's possible. just need to make a .conf file with relevant information, and then:
Code:
./ccminer -a sha256q -o http://127.0.0.1:6997 -u yourrpcusername -p yourrpcpassword
