Have updated wallet to 0.4.0
Of course had to download again zcash parameters.
As regards network synchronization, for me  it takes about 55% for a 24h.
May affected launched miner  Smiley  

What about new CPU miner from monkins, hashrate changed?

P.S. Updated
After I have turned off miner, 40% of synch takes about 40 minutes.

I'm curious how to do Staking Veruscoin on Agama wallet?
I left my wallet to Staking since last night, but i still don't get any rewards or coins for Staking....

Does mining more rewarding or Staking your coins is more rewarding?




Don't know if you checked the pinned messages in the #staking channel on Discord.
There's a great guide how to do staking and AFAIK you'll need about 5K to hit a block a day consecutively.

Thanks for the info, very helpful  Smiley

The new Sapling compatible Verus Coin release with an enhanced crypto-condition-based solution for nothing at stake is now available! We have posted the releases both on github here: https://github.com/VerusCoin/VerusCoin/releases/tag/v0.4.0, and on the website as well here: https://veruscoin.io/
There are a lot of improvements in this release over past releases, including much faster and more efficient blockchain synchronization. Here are the highlights from the release notes:
Sapling
Verus Coin 0.4.0 includes support for Sapling addresses and transactions, including memory usage reduction of near 98% and performance improvements over previous z-transactions typically 40-50x. As with Zcash Sapling upgrade rules, older “Sprout” addresses and “Sapling” addresses may not be mixed in the same transaction. That means if you have Verus Coin that you would like to move from an older Sprout z-address to a Sapling z-address, you must first send it to a transparent address, then to the Sapling z-address. Sapling addresses can be used for shielding coinbase transactions or other functions. Retrieving viewing keys for Sapling addresses, which is not required for normal transactions, is not yet supported, and will be included in the next Sapling technology update.
VerusCoin
Community driven open source CPU mineable cryptocurrency with 50/50 Proof-of-Work/Proof-of-Stake, zk-SNARK zero-knowledge proof privacy.

Crypto-conditions and StakeGuard
Verus-enhanced, Komodo crypto-condition technology, enabling smart transactions and new types of on-chain functionalities. Verus has enhanced the original crypto-condition technology to make integration with standard transactions easier and enable things like StakeGuard, the Verus nothing-at-stake solution. In later releases, the same technology will enable PBaaS, voting, identity capabilities, and more.
Cheat Catcher
In addition to Stake Guard, which supports the nothing at stake solution, this version of Verus includes an early, functional version of the Cheat Catcher, a system that enables every miner or staker to catch stake cheating, when someone stakes two blocks with the same coins on two or more forks. With this version, all known orphaned stake transactions are compared to successful stakes when they mature, and if the orphan was trying to stake the exact same coins but on a different fork and the real fork at the same time, the miner of the block that is 100 blocks later, when that coinbase matures, will mine or stake a spend transaction for that cheat into the block, and send it to a sapling address the miner or staker has set in their wallet. If your wallet catches and spends a cheat transaction the reward for that coinbase will be automatically shielded to your address at the same time as you win the block. The early Cheat Catcher does not broadcast cheating transactions, and it will not catch all possible cheats on the network. It will make it a statistically losing proposition to cheat. This means you should not stake the same addresses on more than one computer at a time. Doing so creates the possibility that you will stake on two forks with the same coins, which puts your earnings at risk. Future cheat catcher implementations will excel at catching cheats on the network.
Stake Delegation
In the new Verus network protocol that activates at the same time as Sapling, you can now set the parameter -pubkey in the command line wallet, which will redirect both mining AND staking rewards to the public key of an address, which can be obtained from an address with the “validatekey” command.
This is a mandatory update before October 28th. Website is updated with all releases, please refresh before downloading. The version is 0.4.0. All clients must be updated before block 227520. Enjoy!

Hey. Is there a profit calculator?
No worries. If entering the market around this time, profits will likely be great. Focus should be on continued growth/promotion of the network.

perhaps this user meant that how the number of tokens was changed, and not what you explained. although what you said is also the place to be.

very difficult I still can not get it to install. i have to mining the coin directly to the exchange.

do not want to work!server changed!

Use Native.
Hi, Are you still having trouble? I don't believe the SPV servers are down recently. They are run by a community service provider 0x03, who is quite often on our Discord. If possible, please go there for help, and he or someone can help. I'll ask if there have been any known issues. Thanks.
thank you problem solved it's just working miners who loaded my machine. as soon as I stopped them, the synchronization started.

We've just announced the latest planned update capabilities in a tweetstorm that calls out Vitalik Buterin, and Zcash's Zooko to ask for criticism of our new solution that solves two theoretical proof of stake issues by using an enhanced crypto-condition contract, activating on October 28th, along with Sapling support. There's a lot in the Tweet Storm, and the last tweet is a link to our community's @John Westbrook 's article on how the new Stake Guard capability works. Again, this is a major breakthrough and not only a solution to fundamental proof of stake problems, but also leveraging enhancements to the Komodo crypto-conditions that will be fundamental to our PBaaS work. We plan to release the newest version a little later this week after full testing. Verus Coin's upcoming release is an advance worth sharing!
Enjoy!

Hey. Is there a profit calculator?

Discord --> cpu-hashrate / gpu-hashrate it will help you.
About 2k left for block reward halving.
What about " Time to Sapling: 32days 9h 13m 18s to block 227520 " , what is that mean?
I remembered.
P.S.

As you may have heard, Zcash recently released the first Sapling compatible client and intends to activate Sapling on the Zcash network October 28th.

We have already integrated the Zcash Sapling changes into a Verus Coin test chain and are also planning to activate Sapling compatibility on the Verus Network October 28th. In addition, the next release and activation on October 28th will fully support Interchain Meta Contracts, based on Komodo's Crypto Conditions protocol. We will announce availability of the version with Sapling support and more details of the release in the next 2-3 weeks.

Here is a great article on Sapling and why it is important as well as who is activating it: https://medium.com/@EthAdvisor/everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-upcoming-zcash-sapling-upgrade-why-its-so-important-and-b5787cc7b68e

Keep an eye out for future updates and availability of the next Verus wallet with Sapling support!

What an INCREDIBLE week it’s been! We started this week with a nice upgrade to add search filters and a little more efficiency, but by the end of the week, the Verus Community has made blockchain history with the Verus Hash algorithm and we have just released working Electrum servers and a lite mode Agama wallet, all with significant contribution by community members! This is an amazing feeling, as this week’s biggest achievements, from the bug fix point releases of the first Agama to the GPU miner, to the lite mode and Electrum server support would not have happened if not for the Verus Community working together! Thank you!
Remember, this is not a mandatory Agama update, but it is very cool and convenient. If you are on version 0.3.13 of the CLI, you don’t need to upgrade anything. That hasn’t changed.
So, where can you get the awesome new lite mode Verus Agama and GPU miners?

As usual the latest, non-mandatory Verus Agama, version 0.3.13c with lite mode support is at: https://veruscoin.io/

New, Nvidia GPU miner for Windows and Linux (Windows, make sure to download all dlls to same folder): https://github.com/monkins1010/ccminer/releases/tag/v2.2.61

I want to mention a few people involved in the community work this week, notably two people who first reported the bugs that were fixed (names are Discord names), @Crypto_boy and @mavenL, thank you both for your reports and help in quickly identifying and fixing errors.
I also want to give special recognition to "@Chris - LOUD Mining - Dev Ops" / monkins1010 for not only finishing the fastest GPU miner we’ve seen yet, although not so fast that we can’t keep CPU mining, but for working on it and releasing it openly to the community the first day he finished it. We’ve all heard stories of CPU-mineable coins that get blown away by secret GPU mining. Not only did we not have that in this case, it looks like we found out that CPU and GPU miners of Verus can now shake hands (credit for that statement goes to @bitopia, our new Verus Pool operator in the community).

Finally, I want to thank 0x03 of 0x03.services for helping not only get a much easier pool installation together for all pool operators to use and learn from, but for adding a bootstrap service to his website, working with me tirelessly through his night to help me get the Electrum servers up and running, and for offering to host the first community Electrum servers for Agama lite mode.


It was only necessary to rest for a couple of weeks and here such chic news. I start testing for gpu miner.
Thanks for work!
