Move your burst_db folder from the old client to the new one to avoid re-downloading the blockchain.
This adds the protocol update needed for v2 pools, and goes into effect on on block 6500. Usage is not yet integrated into the gui, so expect another update for that, but it won't be mandatory to stay in sync like this one is.

I like to announce:
The Plot-generator rewritten in C!
It has several advantages over the one written in Java:
- About twice as fast
- Support for larger stagger sizes, only limited by system memory
- More efficient memory handling. With just 3GB you can use Stagger size 8191, with 8GB 24000 is possible. Plots with larger stagger sizes are better, as they require less disk seeks to be read.
You need a 64bit Linux environment to run this. Maybe someone can port it to Windows?
How to run it:
Download, unpack (tar -xzf plotgenerator.tgz), compile (make)
Then use the same command line options as with the Java-generator:

Anyone have any luck compiling this for Windows? It runs fine in Linux after compiling.
I used the this in terminal in Linux after I compiled it: "x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc plot -o plot.exe"
Then I try to run it on Windows and can not run. I think I am suppose to use "x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++ plot -o plot.exe"
My skills are novice in compiling, so any help is greatly appreciated. Once I can get this running, I'll share a link to download it for Windows users.
where is a link ? _)
I'm still trying to work on it, but remember my coding skills is novice at best. I can not make any promises if I even get it to run.

Due to the increase in difficulty, now renting out TBs of mining power for 0.045BTC per TB for the first month (generation fee), then 0.0225BTC per TB per month thereafter. Solo or pool mining.
Just got an order for 20TB, so any other orders will be waiting a few days.
20tb?
Crazy.
I was thinking burst was probably a fad but its looking more and more like real investors are coming in.
What did he/she pay for that?
0.90BTC for a month once the plots finish generating.
Crazy. I wonder if that will produce more than just buying them from market today.
This is getting interesting.
Very interesting indeed. Right now, 0.9BTC would get around 500,000 BURST at the exchanges, give or take 50k. At current difficulty, 20TB would certainly generate >500k BURST in a month, but there's no way the current difficulty is sticking for any period of time. Personally, I think mining will be a marginally better return, but that's napkin speculation.
I think it depends on a lot of things. The sooner the better though. A 5% monthly reward drop doesn't sound like much but after a few months and an increased difficulty it will feel a whole lot more like a roadblock.
Hope you can get them their plots really fast. Whoever it is deserves a good chance.
Oh for sure, 4-5 days to generate, and plots are mining while they are being generated. It'll be interesting to see what 5% reward deduction does to the market prices, too.

Cool. Maybe the tweet and email I sent yesterday convinced Crypto Mining Blog to post an article: http://cryptomining-blog.com/3351-burst-crypto-currency-with-new-proof-of-capacity-hdd-mining/
Hope this helps with exposure.....
Hopefully coindesk is next.....
i think you can add the screenshot of uray's blockchain stat and explore, it is really cool and can attract more people to see thisHope this helps with exposure.....
Hopefully coindesk is next.....
Just happy they consider doing the article. We should tweet and email coindesk to do the same, also show the block explorer. I know my lone tweet and email won't be enough to convince coindesk. Also the dev should send them an email, just a suggestion.

http://burst.cryptoport.io now has blockchain stat ! (this include richlist and other usefull stats)
enjoy it !
enjoy it !
Incredible. Well done.
incredible .greatttttttttt job! and ...what i see. a guy who has bought 5.34Million? does he want to be a big buyer all the time and i think this block chain stat and explore should give a screenshot and past the position near the link of blockchain explore in the first page, let them know how cool
The 5.3 million is c-cex.

Thanks ... it works with -Xmx2000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate youraddres 800002 19660800 2000 3
Now how large will the plot be ? with 19660800
~ 4800 GB but if something happens you will probaly need to start over again or generate another plot.
Most people using just a regular desktop PC make plots around 500 GB.
If your system is stable and you have enough RAM it shouldn't be a problem though.
August 26, 2014, 08:56:20 PM
Can anyone help me with some info ...
i have started to mine from nonce 1 .... now it says nonce 422501 .... when i create another plot how is better to start again from nonce 1 or continue from 422501 ?
Thanks!
i have started to mine from nonce 1 .... now it says nonce 422501 .... when i create another plot how is better to start again from nonce 1 or continue from 422501 ?
Thanks!
The next plot should be start+number of nonces+1.
So 1+422501+1. If you leave the last +1 out you will have an overlapping nonce, waste of 256kb
.If you use the same address on the same pc do not use overlapping nonces.
i hope that i have undestand ...
this is my first 1 800000 500 2
second must be 1+422501+1 : 422503 800000 500 2
and if the 3rd is 650001 i need to put 422503+650001+1 ?
Is this correct ?
what is you hardware setup?
What is your available disk space?
i use this command : java -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate account 422503 800000 500 2
I have 5 TB space ... i used 300 GB so for ....I5 .. 8 GB Ram ...
If you have 8gb of ram use java 64bit and then:
"C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe" -Xmx2000m .......................
So, you are using 800000 as the number of plots each time.
Sinc you have 5TB and already used 300 Gb space, why not just make a large plot?
5Tb = 5120 Gb - 300 Gb used = 4820 GB available.
Let's say you will use another 4800GB.
" first 1 800000 500 2"
Second:
800002 19660800 2000 3
command would be:
"C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe" -Xmx2000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate youraddres 800002 19660800 2000 3
If you get errors try -Xmx1000 and 800002 19660800 1000 3.
Or you could simply go and make plots of 250 Gb each time. There is a plot and nonces calculator on the forum. Look around if you like.
Thanks ... it works with -Xmx2000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate youraddres 800002 19660800 2000 3
Now how large will the plot be ? with 19660800
