I believe we will see around 3-5k sat at the first real peak.

I certainly hope so, make me regret selling the 160k or so I did. haha. But hey, had to pay for my new drives!

The fuders almost got me to dump at 90 sats

I put up a buy order for 200 sats. It doesn't look like I'm going to get lucky.

Too add some speed comparisons, a 2xE5-2650v2 (when the plotgen is compiled with march=native and -O3, though that doesn't appear to make a difference in my limited testing) gets around 14000 nonces a minute, which clocks out to a bit over 200GB an hour, or around 4.6TB/day.

wow, that's absolutely awesome.

Can I specify a folder to generate? for example another disk?

You can by running the plot-executable from another directory:

cd /mnt/disk
/home/me/plot 1234 0 10000 10000 8

places the plotfile to /mnt/disk

is this a acceptable speed, or do i loose too much by using vm?! threads running on i7@~3.9Ghz ...

Xeon E3-1245, 3.3Ghz:
41 Percent done. 3580 nonces/minute

i7-3770, 3.4Ghz
46 Percent done. 4252 nonces/minute

i7-4770k @ 4.0Ghz:
2 Percent done. 4942 nonces/minute

Phenom 2 1090T, 3.2Ghz 6-core:
0 Percent done. 3301 nonces/minute

Interesting idea, although I dont see how in the long run it would change anything. If it catches on people will compete with their HDD size rather than hashrate.

Really? I'd say Burst is a brilliant idea. Truly anyone can mine Burst on their laptop or home computer without ever raising their power bill.

CPU coins are meant to be mineable by everyone, but botnets ruin their profitability. Not to mention electricity.
ASIC coins require special hardware so they're off the board.
GPU coins are a nice medium between CPU and ASIC coins because GPUs are common, but they're power hungry.
PoS coins are energy efficient and mineable by everyone, but only if they buy coins first.

Almost everyone has an HDD...

It provides a mechanism to prove ownership and use of some form of resource, without requiring large amounts of electricity and heat dissipation, which are two of the largest complaints about Bitcoin's PoW system.

Sure, but also won't be taking a billion watts of power to run. There will always be a competition somewhere. May as well not take (in my case 550+ dollars a month) to run GPU rigs or the like.

if i renamed plots name from pool address to my wallet address... i can solo mine?

You'll have to regenerate the plots, as the data inside them is linked to the pool account.

However, there may be a migration means to v2 for v1 plots, that is up in the air. Might not want to delete them until you get more information on this.

Yes just replace the X's with your wallet address: run_generate.bat XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX 0 1000000 5000 4

Hi,

I'm new to the coin, started plotting today for solomining. Surprisingly, I've already seen a few deadlines below 2000, but no luck so far (although most are much higher). Anyone know how low the deadlines should be to have a chance to get a block?

Thanks

see here http://burst.cryptoport.io/stat

this is the distribution of deadline (in seconds) that resulted in block found, coin spec is saying 240 secs blocktime, so difficulty will adjusted so that miners can announce a block every 4 minutes, as you can see only 42 blocks are generated on > 1800 secs. so with your 2000 deadline, your chance found a block is 42/5668 = 0.74%

Its supposed to be around 4 minutes per block

4 * 60 = deadline of 240.

So in theory it should be 240 or less. Sometimes it's bigger sometimes less.
