Can somebody explain this to me how I know I mined a block?
Some transactions appear in my wallet but are all with a destination to other adresses RA6oCPCMR3fDef2ouPcEy6kQjTNtuusEZJ, RL49tuEjPiZUDaoe56AQHNr5ZLMx2rJxM8, RAgAH5gqEZP8ezroMbFVangdctNTTQJor2,etc.
My balance is still 0 and I can't find these addresses in the explorer.

thanks

Can you post a screen shot to imgur or something and share, or provide a tx id? Definitely these aren't on the blockchain, so it will be a local issue. You say your balance is STILL 0. So, what were the transactions transferring? thx

I get that the circulating supply is very limited for the time being, but anybody buying at these prices should be aware that this scarcity will only last for two months, since after that, the block reward will be 96 and the equivalent of what has been pow-mined in the 3.5 first days (and which is now spendable), will be pow-mined in 3.5 days once the block reward becomes 96.

The coin just launched and the team has yet to produce a white paper explaining their vision. Buying this coin for xxx times what it costs to mine makes no sense at all for the time being, well it could make sense (but still) if the buyer is looking for a greater fool (literally) to sell to for a higher price in the upcoming 53 days ... Of course the market is not necessary rational so anything is possible.

Just remember that people sell only if they think they are making a good deal (or they need the money), so if someone tells you it will be worth $100 and is still selling it to you for 1/10 of that, something doesn't seem right ...

I don´t have a clue whats the value of VRSC, i just offered a price that seems to be fair for me to sell at the moment. There no hint, scam or anything else. I mined from the first blocks on with a I7 6700 and was lucky to find some unlocked blocks....so here´s the deal

No offense intended, I was merely balancing the selling offers by pointing out things that I think buyers should be aware of.

I estimate that the daily unlocked coins will be a small minority compared to the 92VRSC coinbases when the halvings get us there

Agree on that (*96). Why is that actually relevant?

$10 does not seem an unreasonable price level for unlocked VRSC at this time

At this time, without taking into account the circulating coins that will reward the blocks mined after 2 months, maybe. Still, we have no idea about what the team wants to accomplish, let's at least wait for the white paper.

Trading VRSC right now really doesn't make much sense to me. It would be like trading BTC when it appeared (at least Bitcoin had a white paper), nobody did that cuz nobody could put a price on it, everybody was just mining, and when use cases started to appear and demand started to grow, then fiat trading started.

Are you prepared to buy VRSC for $10? If yes, why?

Another successful trade made in the discord channel, price was 9$ for 1 VRSC coin.

i would sell 144 VRSC (matured and transferable) for a price of $8 each.

... a precious 480,000 that are not timelocked for now.

Is it necessary to have the full wallet for PoW mining? There's no standalone miner?

You can use the command line daemon wallet, but currently you'll need to build it, which is quite straightforward on Linux. No standalone miner yet. We're discussing a bounty for a GPU miner to see if an effective one can be made, but it's currently unknown if GPUs can beat CPUs by any meaningful margin, if at all. I'm pretty skeptical. We do want to support pools after the time locked coinbase period is over, but we are not sure yet if that will be through the wallet directly (GUI and CLI) or with a separate miner.

what speed is the AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X 16-Core 3.4GHz should be getting? I think I was getting a lot more faster on first wallet.

I believe I have seen people getting 10 or 11 MH/s on these. What were you seeing?

I getting about 9 MH/S but, only using 80% capacity.

TO EVERYONE:
WE HAVE A FEW SMALL FORKS FROM YESTERDAY'S ISSUES AND WE SHOULD SHUT THEM DOWN AS WE APPROACH 12800.
PLEASE, IF YOU'RE NOT MINING WITHIN 2 or 3 BLOCKS OF THE EXPLORER HEIGHT https://explorer.veruscoin.io/ PLEASE JUST STOP MINING AND WAIT UNTIL
FURTHER NOTICE.
we have a month of these large blocks upcoming, and we will get everyone on the main chain fastest if those extending the forks quit mining. If you know a group of miners on Verus, please pass this on.
it looks like these are the cause of the Windows synch issues some people have had.

Ah... I posted an answer on discord, which I'll change now. I didn't notice the date format. Based on correct reading of your date, I believe as with kaicrypzen, you mined a block on the fork that later resolved.

There is a second update (after https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.38754844) that seems mandatory because otherwise you'll be mining on another chain ... The second update is available on the website.

Yesterday, I updated according to the post. Today, I updated with the second update and all seemed fine, however when I checked one of the last blocks (getblock ) it didn't have the same hash as the one displayed in the block explorer for that block. So I removed all the files in .komodo/VRSC (I'm on Linux) apart from wallet.dat and started Agama, I then had the "RPC connection" error, so I restarted Agama and it was fine, however, the last block I minded is no longer visible. Either I mined it on another chain or I'm missing something. That block was mined at 8:xx AM UTC, does this make sense?

Almost certainly that block was mined on a fork that was orphaned. The RPC issue was our nodes getting blocked yesterday, which led to a number of problems. We have addressed that issue, but we are still investigating sync problems right now. If you got up to date on the network and don't see the block, 99.9% (or more) chance that it was just mined on an orphaned chain.

Are you saying that it was also mined by someone else, and that's why it was orphaned, or something else?
Was it normal that I was on another chain despite having installed the (first) update before the deadline? It seems the second update is mandatory to mine on the right/strongest chain, if so, can you please make a(n official) post about it here?
Glad to hear that you are working on fixing issues, not that I doubted it in the first place Smiley. Keep up the good work.

Thank you!
When a fork occurs, or even when multiple people find the same block virtually instantly, only one gets accepted. When there are small forks, same thing. When there are larger forks, often the hashpower on the main chain far exceeds the other(s), and sometimes people can mine many, many blocks because there is almost no one on the chain and they lost the main one. I'm not saying that these are exactly the things that happened, just generally what can. Yesterday, as a small coin with fewer stable nodes than most, we got all of our stable nodes blocked, and many people weren't connecting properly. With the different versions coincident, we ended up with at least one large group of miners on one chain forked from the main chain. The people in our community discord helped us connect to them, and they upgraded and the fork resolved, but until people upgrade, possibly clear out their chain folder data while saving their wallet (instructions on our discord (https://discord.gg/VRKMP2S) they may have trouble getting back to the main chain.

We learned a number of things, including that we need more fixed ip nodes in different DCs, and a community member in Europe provided nodes for everyone as we were getting it resolved. I'm spending most of today making sure all is good, and once that is done, back to forward progress Smiley
