hello i have a quastion about mining with my wallet (if that is possible)

this is what i put in my quarkcoin.conf

listen=1
maxconnections=80
gen=1
genproclimit=-1
rpcuser=myusername
rpcpassword=mypassword
rpcport=9999
server=1
daemon=1
addnode=37.139.15.128
addnode=198.199.88.26
addnode=192.241.249.49
addnode=212.71.251.113
addnode=192.241.171.45
addnode=202.149.97.149
addnode=121.149.221.224

So ........ do i have to write in the consol only " setgenerate true  or   setgenerate true -1

i tryed setgenerate true and it is mining if i type  getmininginfo , but it found no block for a long time and i do not know how to poolmine

some help needed ,  looks like a great coin for a beginner

Just broke .000002  Shocked
I see +2 decimals soon!
hah, that'd be nice

it is a bit odd in having a digital coin where the "newly minted" amt decreases so sharply over time, i'm holding about 2% of the total amount available right now.  seemed like a decent experiment

how many quark is that ?

221,612,289 * 2% = 4,432,245 QRK

thanks, wow that's quite a few quark. Must have bought some i guess no way to mine all of that was there? Well price up another 10% today. Could be a very interesting experiment as he says. Quark has been pretty stable in many ways since launch actually. Let's see where it is in 6 months time. I'm holding mine anyway. If only i had 4M of them Smiley

Maybe when the block reward is 1?
I am not a miner so I have no idea on this, but I think that the latest news from friedcat that asics are not feasible for scrypt mining will boost cpu + asic clones!

ASICs are SHA 256 anyway, so it's not like it's anything new. Source?
I mean that it is not a good idea to go for scrypt ASICs! That is what ASICMINER said:

...  the actual rate is the 8.22MH/s, but it just reports the 528kH/s (well, in this case since there are two pools operating, it'd be like 7mh/s on pool 1 and 1.2mh/s on pool 2... but the local rates still don't add up to the pool rate).  i installed the https://github.com/Neisklar/quarkcoin-hash-python  but that only fixes my own miner, not what the pool reports?     re: if I start mining with one of my servers, the local rate goes up a ton


That python module is only for calculating the blockhash using the quark algorithm for p2pool and the blockexplorer, it's not for a miner.

There are minerd version out there which have a small bug, that they only report 0.0039 Diff or higher shares.
It's fixed (and i'm sorry for that i accidentially hide it somewhat in the commit messages) in the quarkcoin cpu miner repo
https://github.com/Neisklar/quarkcoin-cpuminer/commit/b1af442712ee82fe9764df3812d134a99e11e3f2.
That can be the cause of wrong reported values.

I think i did not update the binaries i released, since at that point, i though that such a low diff would never be happen again and did not though about the p2pool and the pseudo shares. (You could workaound in the p2pool by raising the lowest pseudoshare target)

ah, yeah, that makes sense, not sure why i didn't think of it.   can just see it from my own graphs, from when hashrate dropped

i probably will change it later, was thinking about making time between shares 30s as well (up from the 20s i have it set to atm)  (ed: there's also quite a few new commits to p2pool i want to put in as well)

i started http://nogleg.net:8372/ back up, it is connected to the nogleg.com:8372 pool.  should get maybe 0.1-0.3% more orphans or something, but maybe less DOA, depending on your connection.  it's located in Dallas, Texas.. I get 40ms ping times there,  185ms to my host in germany,  and that host gets 130ms ping times to germany.

for the last day or so it's just been running 8 thread minerd.  for the record, the xeon *e1240v3 gets about 800khash

ok, since nobody is using the dallas server except myself, going to just take it down for now so i can experiment w/ some stuff on it w/o impacting anyone's mining.

and i'm still planning on looking at 3-4 hrs worth of blocks after i reset the shares to see if anyone got screwed.  might not get around to it for another day or two though

btw, any clues as to why the pool reports incorrect local hash rate?  re:

Pool rate: 8.22MH/s (4.8% DOA+orphan) Share difficulty: 0.00486

Node uptime: 0.868 days Peers: 0 out, 1 in

Local rate: 528kH/s (2.3% DOA) Expected time to share: 0.0110 hours

...  the actual rate is the 8.22MH/s, but it just reports the 528kH/s (well, in this case since there are two pools operating, it'd be like 7mh/s on pool 1 and 1.2mh/s on pool 2... but the local rates still don't add up to the pool rate).  i installed the https://github.com/Neisklar/quarkcoin-hash-python  but that only fixes my own miner, not what the pool reports?     re: if I start mining with one of my servers, the local rate goes up a ton

Hi all,

Not sure if anyone will be interested but I have a Mac OS X Qt wallet for QRK if anyone wants it  Wink

Thanks,

@Swiftshoot -

yeah but that's called "a market" , there are buyers and sellers , if there are more seller than buyers and more volume in this or that direction - the price goes down, ha ha how can you blame the transfer mechanism ha ha ?

seriously .

Before Autosell came into play, the markets were doing great... Since they got implemented, it did the damage needed to the Alt coin market... turning Alt coins into a dumping ground instead of investing into it.


There is no logic in blaming an open market. What is the option? Think about it. And if the autosell thing, as you say, leads to temporarily lowered prices, it means the best strategy for the day is to buy, buy, buy!

Problem: I got over 1M QRK and I fail to transfer large amounts (no I'm NOT selling) to other addresses. Anything above 4000 QRK gives me an error. Any solution to sending larger amounts? I've played around with different fee settings, to no avail. Also salvaged the wallet.

Tranferring

Suggestions?

Did you mine those coins on P2pool? I remember reading somewhere in this thread that an outgoing transaction can't have more than 160 inputs. So if the coins that you have were p2pool coins and they arrived in very small amounts, it's going to be very hard/impossible to move them in large amounts. I mined on p2pool and averaged incoming transactions anywhere from 16-40 quark per transaction, and the maximum that I was able to send out was 6000 per transaction.

well, i thought it was size limited to 10kb, but the # of transactions could be same thing i guess

i started http://nogleg.net:8372/ back up, it is connected to the nogleg.com:8372 pool.  should get maybe 0.1-0.3% more orphans or something, but maybe less DOA, depending on your connection.  it's located in Dallas, Texas.. I get 40ms ping times there,  185ms to my host in germany,  and that host gets 130ms ping times to germany.

for the last day or so it's just been running 8 thread minerd.  for the record, the xeon *e1240v3 gets about 800khash

ed: hah, ok, done messing with it.  changed the share period to 20s from 15s, increased spread to 100 blocks from i think it was at 50 (so shares you get won't 'disappear' for twice as long, but it also takes longer for new miners to build up value).  also decreased fee back to 0% on both.    

to do all this, it seems like i had to erase previous shares.  but if there's some block solving bonanza, i'll send some coins from my personal wallet to the addresses that had values over 10:

QNpjAZQcWUFjJ7EwkbAZLUcmRjVYPMoks9: 10.02514
QXhMSKx4ahbpj7M5APh6SoBjtmssR9HuEW: 13.39316
QiCJawut76HtKhq6Eg5CrMm5NUDswKkWEQ: 19.21159
QgTsq3KKoCRBqzY7Z9WqHiNErP6yghky1S: 25.04391
QNDhMdGXTKRwTixKpkS7Ecu7ty2eYdjeBE: 30.85181
Qj2gPtBJgNDbKrzsJUA13TnFxqvpuxhrfq: 33.65265
QMNkMnFmuQGvJKcxNnL3Xf7uKn8eCgXqNC: 34.52418

(for the next few hrs, after that they would have been knocked off anyway)

... ok, so there was some block solving bonanza.  lots of blocks in the first 15 minutes and another now after about 50m.  it looks like a few of those ppl were actual beneficiaries of the reset though (i.e. QMN got 80 quarks for the first block)..   i'll figure it out later tonight or tomorrow morning, re: who got screwed by shares getting reset and then send out some compensation

Try sending your coins in smaller chunks to a new wallet. This will combine the smaller transactions into a single transaction, allowing you to send large amounts from the new wallet.


Still, I have to make a shitload of small transfers. Can it be automated somehow?

You can use the daemon from the command line, e.g.

quarkcoind sendtoaddress Qxxxxx 4096



Fantastic. I made a .bat file. Working! Thanks a million! (Poor blockchain Smiley )

yes there is a script made for this exact purpose. checkup on github.com/zelles he made a script so i could send a satoshi to 300,000 address's so it shiould work for u
