I've noticed for pages now that you are frequently taking about SweetSpot, but what is it ? A software that improve mining ? Or something else ?

The Sweet Spot Miner (Official Magi site mirror, out of date) is a program (written in Delphi, I think?) that manages your hashing power (so you don't waste energy mining when the rewards are low). From the link above:

Quote

Sweet Spot Magi Miner is able:

to hide the miner window so it will not waste your taskbar space.
to hide itself into the system tray while running.
to start the miner at LOW priority so the miner will not slow down your work.
to check the current Network Hashrate and control the miner CPU usage targeting the Sweet Spot 22MH/s the Hash Rate you choose.
to check the current Block Value and control the miner CPU usage targeting 12+XMG/Block the Block Value you choose.

And here's a screenshot of the interface, if you're curious:

http://ark.intel.com/products/80910/Intel-Xeon-Processor-E3-1231-v3-8M-Cache-3_40-GHz

I don't have internal gpu

there's a slight difference/2-3% with turbo boost, which is 3800 on two threads, but that is rare as OS consumes some cycles and it goes to 3700Mhz, on four threads it goes down to 3600 and stays there.

I am comparing equal % of total CPU load when running sweetspot to individually running 2-8 threads on 100% core load

When running ALL the threads at % your CPU goes below 3600MHz and the percentage is based on that value. So if you compare 50% of 4 threads running at 1000MHz to 100% of 2 threads running at 3600MHz you will get lower hash rate but you will get also lower power usage. 60% and 70% are not great savers on some CPUs but the only reason I included them was because someone wanted them there

The deal is to save energy when it is not profitable to mine, right Grin

Anyway it is impossible for an external app to stop/start threads of the miner without restarting the miner. It is possible to pause them, but if the pause is greater than 2s then they will disconnect from the stratum.

I've added “Total balance” to the overview section of the wallet. I was getting tired of adding “stake” and “balance” together to see how much I had. Cheesy

I'm kind of new at git so I thought I'd ask how to check in these changes. Should I just run “git commit -a” on the main branch or is there some descriptions on how people should submit code changes?

One of the things that make Coin Magi unique is that it is very resistant to ASICs and GPUs. That makes my life easier than having to purchase an ASIC or set up a GPU mining rig and compete with other's hashrate. With Magi's unique block reward, it gives control and flexibility to the rewards that you could earn by mining on a CPU. Therefore, that's why I chose Magi as my top CPU mining coin. I mine it everyday! Cheesy

Magi is not only resistant to ASICs and GPUs but it is resistant to multiple CPU threads, as it seems my Xeon E3(=~i7 4770 non K) has a bottleneck when starting more threads:

2-19,5=39kh/s
3-18=54
4-16=64
5-14=70
6-13=78
7-11,25=78,75
8-10=80kh/s

p.s. seems that Sweetspot strategy is not efficient with my CPU as it seems that I get less kh/s when I get more threads with reduced core load 10%-70% than if I start a few threads on 100% core load, anyone help with i7?

~i7 4770 is a 4 core CPU it is normal that at 8 threads you are not getting the double of what you are getting at 4 threads.
The strange thing is that at 4 threads you are not getting the double of 2 threads. How are the CPU temps while mining at 4 threads? Also are you using the internal GPU?

About the 10%-70% (especially the 10%-50% range) you are getting worse results but you are also getting less power waste because your CPU is idling at the lower frequencies.

We have a number of exchanges in China to work with, while I am yet to see an appropriate time to carry it on.

Awesome Joe.Would be great to see Magi on Chinese exchanges. Keep us informed about this!

China is a big market with lots of potential here.

Exactly.

I can hardly wait to see Magi there.
I will check the Chinese Magi threads and see if they need updates.

It is amazing that we get that far. I concerned getting more than 100 pages; getting that was one of the supports asking Bittrex to add us into their exchange list to evidence the popularity; now more than 500 pages. And I think it would never be the case of closing up this thread and opening up a NEW self-moderated thread as some others did that is almost like a suicide.

The important thing is that those 500 pages are useful, not like some recent coins (like Botcoin which ended up in a scam btw) that had 100 pages in a day because of some flooders.

Maybe the ranking and number of page views here will prove a useful tool in negotiation getting adopted by some more popular exchanges which don't offer a large number of alts

Indeed, but of course it's not the same 500 pages of helpful team responses than 500 pages of flood and spam.

Why is this coin special? Its a normal altcoin

Let me make you a summary:

- CPU-only coin mostly because if hashrate increases a lot the network reward decreases. That also denies botnet mining.
- PoS-II, nice reward even if you have low balance.
- Hybrid coin, if PoW ends to be CPU-only coin then don't worry because PoS will still be available.
- Nice community which helps you in a long-term investment.

Good question! Many things. Read the OP and you find the information about the unique blockreward system, First POS-II, MQW and much more. Any specific questions? You are welcome to ask.

Thanks for informing me. I will investigate to mine and buy, I like antiasic coins Wink

I was attracted to Magi for a number of reasons, mainly because it has some USP's as already summarised by LordCoder - and a great community. If you order by number of posts in the alt coin announcement - you'll see that Magi is the 25th most popular coin (19th in terms of views, suggesting there is also a lot of inactive members also reading the posts) - and most of the coins that are higher in ranking have been around for quite a bit longer than Magi. Some other highly capitalised coins/shares have virtually no community. Some in the top 10 on coin market cap have only around 50 pages and still use bitcointalk as their main communication channel.

Thats really cool Starmman. I did not know Magi was in the top 25 of most populair coins!
Thats awesome and nice to know!

Moreover, 9-10 of the threads above Magi didn't have a post added for a month or more so can be classed as inavtive (although, they could have threads started elsewhere - didn't look that far), and one more post will level Magi with Earthcoin at position 24 =)

Awesome Abiky and Starmman. Reading your posts give me a big smile.
