Hey dumb question lol, when I want to upgrade to latest wallet version, do I simply install from directory and will it simply up date relevant wallet files and preserve all coins, addresses and uploaded files? or is there more to do such as a backup and if so what is the best way to back up all wallet data before wallet version upgrade? I have ideas but not sure 100%

THX

Maybe I missed that part  Smiley

I saved a copy the entire UI folder from my roaming directory and saved a copy of the current wallet, both saved off of my main HDD just to be safe. But simply opening the new wallet worked just fine, all coins preserved and i immediately was synced up.
Follow up: Well that sucks, did the wallet upgrade and now coins and previous addresses are gone???

SO the wallet upgrades will wipe out coins in old version AND probably loose and unconfirmed payouts from mining since it created new address......... this ain't gonna cut it! lol

I guess I am thinking I will try removing newer upgraded UI from roaming and stick back in the old one I backed up and see what it does then?

Let ya know  Huh

EDIT: Ok, just put back in the roaming folder from my backed up UI and still no coins and new addresses are still showing and I expect unconfirmed mined coins from old wallet will not be received  as payouts since they where mined from the previous version wallet? Is this right? If so we got a problem Houston!!

***So forget upgrading a wallet if you have coins or data. You will loose coins and you will loose any outstanding payouts from mining as well, safe to assume.

I put my old UI back in roaming, launched the old wallet from its directory but still have older version wallet again..... coins and address is back.

Dev we need guidance here on this, how are we to upgrade to newer wallet versions in light of all this?

Another question: I want to transfer all coins out of wallets from miners to a central non mining laptop wallet. How do I get that address of storage wallet into my other wallets to send coins too?

Wallet addresses in wallets, I am unable to copy,

I am trying to copy an address from my new storage wallet but have no way to copy and paste-- into the send box on the other wallets....

Any ideas? maybe I missed that too  Smiley

ok, thanks. that is about what I did from the original CPU miner wallet, upgrade however I had no coins to worry about lol. All 5 wallets I want to upgrade have coins now. Also, I assume then, that the payout addresses upgrade and any unconfirmed coins will make it into the new upgraded wallet?

I am going to back up original directory and UI from roaming first just to be safe!  Wink try upgrade on wallet first with least amount of coins

Hello guys, How's your mining going? Is it stable & going smoothly all day/night long?
Mine is not stable even with those newer version of miner/wallet. Although it takes litter more time to go black screen than with older version.

Too soon to tell for me but I am getting half the hashrate with the new wallet and miner.......

Thanks for all the stats! And if anyone wants to know the inflation rate per year paste this into google and it will give you a graph:
y=(1.5768/(42.05+1.5768(x-1)))*100

For the first year (x=1) the inflation is about 3.75%, 10th year it is about 2.8%, and 50th year about 1.32%.

I'm pretty sure that's wrong. For the first year, inflation is much closer to 90%. Maybe my math is off, but I wrote this program: http://play.golang.org/p/m8czRAW0u2

Output:

Code:
Inflation Rate of Sia
Inflation at Year 1: 90.39%
Inflation at Year 2: 39.37%
Inflation at Year 3: 21.44%
Inflation at Year 4: 11.50%
Inflation at Year 5: 4.39%
Inflation at Year 6: 3.44%
Inflation at Year 7: 3.32%
Inflation at Year 8: 3.22%
Inflation at Year 9: 3.12%
Inflation at Year 10: 3.02%
Inflation at Year 11: 2.93%
Inflation at Year 12: 2.85%
Inflation at Year 13: 2.77%
Inflation at Year 14: 2.70%
Inflation at Year 15: 2.62%
Inflation at Year 16: 2.56%
Inflation at Year 17: 2.49%
Inflation at Year 18: 2.43%
Inflation at Year 19: 2.38%
Inflation at Year 20: 2.32%
Inflation at Year 21: 2.27%
Inflation at Year 22: 2.22%
Inflation at Year 23: 2.17%
Inflation at Year 24: 2.12%
Inflation at Year 25: 2.08%
Inflation at Year 26: 2.04%
Inflation at Year 27: 2.00%
Inflation at Year 28: 1.96%
Inflation at Year 29: 1.92%
Inflation at Year 30: 1.88%
Inflation at Year 31: 1.85%
Inflation at Year 32: 1.81%
Inflation at Year 33: 1.78%
Inflation at Year 34: 1.75%
Inflation at Year 35: 1.72%
Inflation at Year 36: 1.69%
Inflation at Year 37: 1.66%
Inflation at Year 38: 1.64%

Sorry, yeah the equation y=(1.5768/(42.05+1.5768(x-1)))*100 is for the inflation rate after all 42.05Billion coins have been mined (about 5.5 years).  So I meant at the first year (x=1) after the first 30,000 block has been mined the inflation is about 3.75%, 10th year it is about 2.8%, and 50th year about 1.32%.

My 3.2 wallet will not seem to sync up. I see my SC in the Overview, but no block height.. it just sits there non-responsive. Any ideas?

Also, replacing the wallet file in the newer version doe not make my mined coins appear.  Huh?

It's so bloody loud though. Might just keep it running when I'm not sleeping lols... using my neighbours electricity ....

Difficulty hasn't adjusted to the higher block rate yet, but it will.

when? at this rate we are hitting 30,000Sia per block in about half a year : ))

Dammit i can't change it cause i can't port forward because I'm at work.... but i managed to mine 300KS on an i5 HAHAHAHHAHA
No kidding! lol, that's pretty cool  Shocked i5

not sure if my CPU mined coins are legit though Sad

Does sia create multiple addresses for each new mining session?

wallet/status shows

Code:
{"Balance":0,"FullBalance":0,"VisibleAddresses":["957f3cb77db909ef85ddc41ebc7bb243d2f951a2e58f36c52b3321e39e99dfbd"],"NumAddresses":9

Okay so after I did a reboot, I opened the client with a brand new address and the blockchain seemed to be syncing (again).
My coins dont show up.
I havent touched anything else. Can anyone please show me how to fix this please?

The UI was showing a different address? It sounds like you ran the program from a different folder.

Sia doesn't do any sort of installing right now, all the data is kept in the same folder. This is going to be fixed in the next release.

problem solved. Smiley
somehow the whole folder was moved somewhere else after the reboot.

Running wallet 0.3.3.1 with GPU miner 1.01 x64 in the same folder.

trying to mine this on a old card 6870

only getting 1.3 mh/s ? norm get 320 mh/s on scrypt etc ...

is this normal i see everyone reporting usual rates for 280x etc 700-800 mh/s

Have added


set GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS=1
set GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT=100

to .bat

Am i missing something , is it age of card? ( norm gets 320) any help appreciated , dont gonna mine any blocks with 1.3 mhs

thanks in advance

Q

no ...

we are getting around 50MH on a gigabyte 280x oc ...

the other figures that are getting thrown about at the moment ( as far as i know ) are the devs that have redeveloped the miner ( or created their own ) with their optimizations ...

so dont worry too much ...

#crysx

The latest optimized miner has been released. It apparently didn't do too much for amd  Undecided

I've only got an Nvidia card, so that's where all my benchmarks are coming from. Wolf0 gave me some pointers though, maybe we can milk a little extra speed out.

i have both cards taek ... only just started testing it on the amd cards ...

wolf is brilliant at what he does ... his pointers and advice are worth taking note of ...

there are others on the dev space that can do a great job also ... pallas - djm34 and a handful for amd ... a few more in the nvidia space - as ive messaged you before ...

ill pull down the test machine ( 2 x gigabyte 750ti oc lp ) and try and get it running with that ... i have a few other things to get finalized first - then bed Smiley ... so tomorrow ...

i always understood that opencl implementation was best on amd cards ... maybe i misunderstood ...

anyway - will test tomorrow on nvidia ...

tanx taek ...

guess so too

also checkout http://127.0.0.1:9980/miner/status
says how many blocks you mined
I checked this & I found the address here is different from my wallet address .
Come on anybody? Is this normal? Will my miner automatically connects with my wallet? If not how to connect?
 


Yes that's normal, your miner is connected right. If you are finding blocks, the reward is going into your wallet (after 144 confirmation delay)

Ok thank your for the replies Smiley

appreciated

It said i mined 3 blocks on the miner and this will take 24hrs to even display in wallet correct? no indication of blocks mined and number of confs right?

Q

It'll take 144 confirmations, which is usually 24 hours.
