I guess I should rephrase. I am confident in my ability to get it running on Solaris (I could always run it inside a zone anyways).  A better question is approx how many BURST/day (or approx BTC/day) would 120 4-TB NL-SAS disks net me? I could bring it up on up to four of these servers for at least a week or two.

If its just for a week or two it will all depend on your CPU power. You have to complete the plots before you can do any mining. As a comparison - a modern i7 fills ~1TB/day.

To clarify, each system is a Solaris server with 120 4 TB NL-SAS disks attached to it via SAS, each is presented as an individual disk and then a root ZFS pool is constructed out of the entire thing leaving 420 TB of usable space per system.
Realistically, how much could it mine?

Current estimates put the total network at about 1256 TB. If you were to add 420 TB right now, you'd have about 25% of the network's mining capacity. So you'd earn about 25% of the 3.6 million newly generated coins per day, which would be 900k BURST per day.

Of course, difficulty is also on the rise. I estimate that it's doubling every 4-8 days, so this 900k BURST per day should halve every 4-8 days.

Network total storage is currently estimated at about 1.4PB, so that would be a massive portion of total new coins.

i get that when i change the stagger size
Your problem is your java version. Using high stagger sizes requires 64 bit java. Install that, and use the java file in C:\Program Files\Java\...

what im suppose to do with this ?


It should be:

Code:
pocminer.POCMiner generate 3989028246376916378 0 120000 500 5

You have:

Code:
pocminer.POCMiner generate *3989028246376916378#* 0 120000 500 5

Loose the *'s and # around your account number.

yes thank you, it doing something now Cheesy whitch numbers i should pick for
- 30 gb
- 250 gb
- 500 gb?

I never really understood that myself.  I use free space / 256kb.  Google "30gb/256kb", "250gb/256kb" and "500gb/256kb" and it will get you very close.

Alright, I'll just google them for you. Smiley

30gb = 117187
250gb = 976562
500gb = 1953125

That's assuming you actually have that space available after formatting.  Remember, a 500gb drive won't have 500gb available.  Once formatted they all loose capacity due to 1 byte = 8 bits.

yes i know, thank you
so what next ? i create plots and how can i start mine in pool than ?

Shouldn't be too much to getting it working on Solaris since it is UNIX based. But there's probably a little recoding needed from the Linux code to make it work on Solaris. You can try the Linux tutorial and see if it would right out of the box.

Does this run on Solaris?
How many BURST could a couple 480 TB Solaris servers earn?
How much plankton does a whale eat?

BTCURST coin!!!!

Alright guys, as I mentioned, I am in the process of helping a developer friend of mine here at work, as I work for a software developer, make a GUI that will help the noobs to download, plot, and mine. With this, I am hoping to get a bounty going so that my friend (who currently doesn't have any BURST) can get some pay for his hard work. Can we get together a bounty amount? I for one will start it off with a 10k donation. I don't know if there was ever a bounty for this already, but if so, can we just start adding to it?? Thanks!


Please list how much you are willing to contribute to the bounty, he is hoping to have this finished within a couple days, and the bounty would be a nice gesture to show that we care when people help out the coin and community as a whole!

Also, like I mentioned, we believe this will be Windows and 64bit only to start, it may then evolve from there, but it will be that for the beginning.


PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU ARE WILLING TO CONTRIBUTE, OR IF THERE IS ALREADY A BOUNTY, AND WE CAN ADD TO IT. MY 10K WILL EITHER START IT OFF, OR CONTINUE THE EXISTING ONE. LET'S GET IT STARTED IN HERE!


Thank you for having such an amazing community, and I will continue to do whatever I can to improve it!

bump to new page, also, I WILL POST SCREENSHOTS OF DEVELOPMENT starting most likely tomorrow. To prove the project is actually being done.

pm the dev to post it on the OP. This will definitely increase the investors and novice miners to have better entry into Burst.

i just restarted the payment system, you will see some payment, please check if it was correct

All is incorrect. I got paid 89 coins. My rig 3.62 TB mined with 00.59 PM UTC to 9.00 PM with paused.
You think its normal?? 89 coins per 8 hours- this payment is tip.
Think tomorrow i disconected forever.

Number account is BURST-QF6W-298Z-EA3D-EGL4G



i am not sure, this is my account



15 TB, full-no pause

Why so small?

maybe because someone else have bigger plots than me, its crazy, with current price of burst, maybe you can rent up to 20 TB at amazon EC2 at profit , thats for one account, you can create multiple accounts

There are supposed to be 4 3TB drives at home for me tonight.  With my luck, someone will release a GPU miner that is twice as fast when I am halfway through plotting these drives......

Damn post office, wants a signature for the hard drives delivery.  Got to wait until tomorrow, DAMMITT!!! Angry

hello,

tried to mine solo for the past three hrs, no luck with 1 TB (still plotting...) Sad

can someone pls send 1 burst so that i can start with pool, will send it back soon Smiley

BURST-ZCVP-8TKX-J33U-G38HY

Just sent 10, good luck!


thx a lot !!

I have even bigger dreams my son. I have my developer friend here at work with me ( I work for a software developer) who is going to design a GUI for the plotter and the miner! So we are talking about this right now. I will keep everyone updated!'

So far it will be Windows and 64bit only, but that's just the start.

That's fantastic , and when the work will be finished?  1 week  or more ?

Honestly, I think it will be done very shortly. I am in the middle of explaining how it all works to him so that he can do it. Like I said, I will make sure to keep everyone updated!

Oh , this is  super fantastic.. if you ( and your friend ) do this  , the time of generate a plot will be very faster , that is secure Wink .

Where are you from, redsnow?  Your twisted english is sometimes amusing to read.

I think I do not understand how the difficulty is calculated with this coin.

It has been between 10 and 25 Mio for a couple of days.

I expected it to rise fast. Why is it doing down instead?

"baseTarget" is the difficulty, right?



"baseTarget" is actually the inverse of the difficulty. The difficulty for a given block is:

Code:
difficulty = 2^64 / baseTarget

Difficulty can also be used to calculate an estimated total size of miner's plots. The equation is:

Code:
Total plot size (TB) = difficulty / 4 / 240 / 1024 / 1024

Based on the current baseTarget of 14577838, the estimated total plot size is 1256 TB. I've been loosely tracking the difficulty, and it seems to be doubling every 4-8 days.

Thanks to uray, in this post for clarifying these equations.

Thank you for elaborating. You are right. My face is all red now.

I will have to adjust my munin plugin.
