Topic: [ANN][2POW] Luck - A new consensus algorithm to eliminate large mining pools - page 12. (Read 6578 times)

the right word is for who is contribution to Luck project, i hope there is bounty on this forum in short time because this good project should get attentions from all member from this forum, signature bounty are very wonderfull right now if sherlock are wish to have any bounty in this groups.

As for now I only know that Luck coins are given to community for making their work for Luck

well i dont know about this, dev is not really transparent where and when they are spending the premine, the premine is a key of project funding, if they distribute it without telling, i think investor will not look back on this project because what, they are using premine without community know and it could be that in the future they will sell and reduce the lucky price if it is listed on the exchange,I hope they can be more transparent with premine and notify every transaction that is used in the premine.

I get some coins for articles also
50 coins was spent for http://luckclock.xyz/    that was made by one of community member on Discord

well i saw there is premine about 300k luck, when the coin will be planned to use or will we have any bounty to promote the coin on this forum, because i dont think that people know enough about this coin, signature campaign is the best for now to spread about the luck coin to bitcointalk community like how idena coin did, i hope there is planned bounty in short time, ive seen the premine only has been used about 600 luck for the guys who contribute seeds.

We have fully released all the codes. If you are familiar with Ethereum, you should know how to compile it.
In addition, we have updated new wallets on the official website , added the new seeds. This update is not mandatory, and users can freely choose whether to update.

Sherlock, any chance to release the complete code with these news seeds, so we can build from source, i know several of us arent a big fan of running binaries...

Don't trust, verify!  Remember?

Thanks alot!

For all,
Thank you very much for your warm help, we have received enough seeds, these seeds will be put in the next version.

Hi Sherlock I recently create the project for 2 seed nodes located in US and Russia send You an invitation to VPS provider so You can simply manage it and also mail with login details if something will don't work. Just please reply to mail that You got it and all is ok. Cheers

win10 I want to know more detailed operation instructions

Hello everyone
We are still looking for seed node providers. As the number of nodes increases, according to our estimation, we need to start 6-8 seed nodes in the near future. The configuration of the seed node server is as follows:
CPU: 2 core or more.
RAM: 4GB or more.
HardDisk: 100GB
Other: Public IP, open port 30009.

For users who provide seed nodes, we will give each node a continuous reward of 100luck/month.
Users who provide seed nodes can email us individually with the server's IP and login permissions, we will have professional engineers to deploy it.  Thank you.

In the windows wallet, you will find a directory "luck", which contains file "luck.exe" with a size of 50M. You can use the command line terminal to start it. The operation method is the same as in the linux system. You only need to use  different ports --port and different data directories --datadir to start multiple instances.

This is based on the account model, the same as ethereum, so there is no coinbase transaction.

It looks like the block rewards are added to a state channel

Hi Sherklock,

  I've noticed that when you look at explorer or mine a block there's no transaction, block have none, like this one:

How come?  I see the balance grow but i see no tx for minted coins.

Thanks for answering that

Is it posible to ellaborate mining in windows with several instances?

hello all
For the questions that you have paid more attention to recently, I will answer briefly

1 How to start multi-core mining on a single machine?
Considering that a single node is mining at a medium luck value, more power consumption is wasted. For machines with multiple cores and large memory, we recommend that you start multiple nodes, and each node runs the mining program independently, which is equivalent to the way that each independent program occupies one core. The method of starting multiple nodes on a single machine is as follows:
Linux: Specify different ports and different data directories when starting the process luck --port= --datadir=. Note that to start multiple processes on a single machine, make sure to specify different ports and different data directories.
Windows: After decompressing the wallet file, you will see the luck/luck.exe file, which is a binary command-line program whose operation is the same as that of the Linux system and requires you to operate in the command-line mode. For example, you enter luck.exe --datadir= --port= in a command line terminal, and then open another terminal and enter luck.exe attach /luck.ipc. For specific commands, please refer to https://github.com/luck-coin/luckcoin/blob/master/wiki/luck_linux.md.

2 How to optimize the mining network to increase the winning rate?
Since all mining nodes are now connected to the seed nodes, all messages are transfered through the seed nodes. With the gradual increase of network nodes, the transfer efficiency of seed nodes will continue to decline, which will affect the stable operation of mining nodes, especially for miners with multiple nodes. For miners with multiple nodes, it is recommended to deploy a transit node to connect to the seed nodes. The internal nodes directly interact with the transit node. If these nodes are on an intranet, this will greatly increase the message forwarding speed.
Start the wallet node directly, and connect directly to the seed nodes by default. If you want the node to connect to your own transit node by default, you need to specify in the command line parameter --bootnodes=lnode://@:, where NODE_1 is your transit node ID, you need to use admin.nodeInfo to view it on the transit node. IP_1 is the IP of your transit node. If it is on the internal network, it is recommended to use the internal network IP. PORT_1 is the port of the transit node, which is 30009 by default. In the Linux system, you only need to add the command line parameter. Under windows system, you need to start your wallet node in command line terminal mode to specify the --bootnodes parameter. In order to confirm that you are indeed connected to your transit node, you can check the connection through the command admin.peers.

I want to know how to use multi-core mining on a single machine. I set miner.start(2) or miner.start(4), which has no effect.

I recently found a lot of similar fake ann, I obviously know the file in it is malicious, but I am curious what it is.

you're right
Under the traditional proof-of-work mechanism, for example, there are two groups of miners. The first group has only one node, and the second group consists of 9 nodes forming a small mining pool. the probability of the first group winning is 1/(2^ 9)=1/512.
Under the 2POW mechanism, for the same two groups of miners, the probability of the first group winning is 1/10.
