Topic: [ANN][BURST] Burst | Efficient HDD Mining | New 1.2.3 Fork block 92000 - page 381. (Read 2170648 times)

Never was resolved in Taiwan, but the entire *.ga points to 127.0.0.1   
*.ninja is resolved

the tricky part is to attach the hdd to the controller.
therefore you can simply buy one raspberry pi 2 and the performane of the quadcore with 1 gb ram should be enough to mine over usb with 2 hdd and 16tb for about 700$ in total. this setup should read all plots within 200 seconds from both drives.

mixing up mining architectures i wont do.

if we had a non-java version of wallet then we could have more embedding into other miners.  so you could have a bitcoin miner with a HDD attached via USB interface that is also mining burst at the same time.  power and network connection can be shared.  but java ain't gonna run on most of the embedded hardware miners use. although mining against a burst pool doesn't require java (wallet) to be installed on a device.

Well my synology is Gigabit linked to NAT but after i'm only over wifi n and it is very slow to read everything (have 8,5Tb plot).

And, best part is when my computer is turned off, my synology continue mining alone. A way lower energy use !

This is excellent work!  Thank You for the tutorial...

I have a DS412+ that I have been using to mine Burst from nearly the introduction month.  I went the much easier (and lazier) route to just map my Burst Plot folder on my DS412+ as a network drive letter (Y:) in windows and use that drive letter as a nonce destination in Blago's miner.  I never have had any true issues other than the fact that the Synology path is a fair bit slower to run through the nonces than my direct wired drives or my USB3 external drives.  I am on a direct wired CAT6 line to my Synology Box and still its slower, but gets done in about 90 seconds or so compared to 30 seconds on my other nonce drives.


But thank you again.  When I have time I may try and redo my Synology with these instructions to see if I gain some nonce search speed......

How to install burst Wallet & miner on a Synology NAS

Log as admin into DSM through you web browser
Go to package center and install Java Manager

Once installed, Java isn't installed yet, open the application and follow the instruction to install it.
To resume:
Go to the java SE Download Page, accept the license and download the Linux x86 version (must be jdk-7u75-linux-i586.tar.gz at time writing this tutorial)
When your download is finished, select the file in java manager and click OK. After few seconds Java will be installed.

Next, Go to Control Panel, Shared folder and create a new folder say "BurstCoin". It will hold your burstcoin wallet/miner/plotter and plot.
Give read/write access to your user.

Then go to Control Panel, Terminal & SNMP and activate Enable SSH service. Write down the port number.

You can now close DSM.

Mount this newly created Folder into your computer with your user rights.

Download the latest burst Wallet (go to https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annburst-burst-efficient-hdd-mining-new-123-fork-block-92000-731923 and click "Download Wallet")
Extract it in your Burst Folder.
Download the linux miner (go to http://burstcoin.eu/downloads and click "Uray Burst Miner (Linux x64)")
Extract it in your Burst folder.

I highly recommend to plot your nas with a computer instead of your nas itself as your computer have much more ram. To do that, I recommend linking your nas in Gigabit Ethernet to your Computer. I personally plotted 8,5TB in about a week with a CPU plotter as Gpu crashed every time.

When everything is extracted your folder should be like this:
\\Diskstation\Burstcoin\burst_1.2.2 the wallet
\\Diskstation\Burstcoin\burst-miner-r4 the miner
\\Diskstation\Burstcoin\plots all your plots files

Time to configure everything:
Wallet configuration:
Edit the burst_1.2.2\conf\nxt-default.properties and edit the following lines:

Now under burst_1.2.2 folder edit the run.sh file like that :


This command let start the wallet and export result into the file output.log containing date in the wallet folder.
Assuming volume1 the name of volume you are using for your storage (will see that later).


Miner configuration:
Also configure poolurl as you want.

Now under the burst-miner-r4 folder create a run.sh file with this content:

Same as the wallet, miner result will be stored in an output.log containing start date in miner folder.

Configuration of wallet and miner are now over, let configure your Synology to start it automatically on startup.

Connect to your Synology over SSH with Putty if you are on windows or in console if under Linux
Login as root & use your admin password

First check your name volume: type

You will have some result, your Volume name is the first folder in path.
Modify previous run.sh and miner configuration file with this name.

Create or edit the file /etc/rc.local   this file is read at startup of your NAS every time.

Write the following line in it:

Everything is now up. Reboot your Synology.

To help network you should route Port 8123 in your NAT.

However you should NOT route port 8125, your wallet is still accessible from lan only
Do NOT route ssh port, You should disable it on DSM if you don't use it.
You can access your wallet with http://SynologyIP:8125
Check miner stats on pool or in the log created.


Edit : I can't post this Thread on official Burstcoin forum as I can't Post link... if someone can copy it, thanks

burst.ga disappeared due to a DNS provider issue, it's back up at burst.ninja

monthly, regardless if it is a just a few BURSTs or thousands.
The exactly date for the previous month is not fixed, but might be within the first week of the following month.

When, and how often will these profits be shared exactly?  Daily? Weekly? Once a certain threshold is reached?

If you want to post questions then use this topic instead: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/automated-transactions-at-is-changing-things-find-out-more-here-966622

(the other topic ended up being moved to the alts board which was not very helpful so I locked it)

Try this page: https://burstforum.com/index.php?threads/burst-media.295/


As long there is no wallet app, that can handle this, the card may  not be so effective.

^Here's what you need: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/understanding-the-automated-transaction-system-at-949438

It would be good to know how to start.
Assembler I did years ago.

Anyone have an idea on how to have a card listed on http://cryptocards.ca/  ?

What logo we could use, and how encrypt the passphrase ? It could be a good promotion.

^Do you code in assembler? There is no easy way to implement AT code. There is an easy way to deploy already implemented AT general user cases like my zRMicroArray crowdfunding case, which will most probably stay unfunded.

i have other ideas to services like yours...

but i need a tiny tutorial to implement and deploy AT code...

can somebody help me?

thanks!!!

Pool comparison:

devpool http://178.62.39.204:8121/
in my opinion the most user unfriendliest UI

cryptoport.io SG, US, EU https://pool.burstcoin.io/
I am getting tired of watching the spinning circle. If you get over it, a lots to see. Except the spinning circle a good job.

birst.ga
Not reachable from Taiwan, ... no comments, *.ga domains are not resolved in Taiwan

http://cryptomining.farm
Nice, easy to understand, clean UI
Some people complain about too many users. I see no problem here.

crowtec's beta pool http://pool.burstcoining.com:8124/
UI reminds me on the old tv testing screen with the two wheels.
No idea about that pool. It is said to be a Windows machine.

http://pool.burstcoin.it
standard UI, but the red is for my eyes a little bit to "sharp"

http://tompool.org
as I look at it now, ... Eror 521 Web server is down

http://burst.poolto.be
standard UI, I like the colors

http://mininghere.com:8001
it is my pool, no coment

I found a new pool. Here the description:

Great! More pools are getting available!

PetaByte is an asset, which you can buy/sell/trade
1 Share is equal to 1 TB of hard disk space.
The mining profit will be splitted to all shareholders according to their shares on that day.
Only payments from the pools are counted to be shared. (Not new buyers of assets!!!!)

1 PetaByte is 1024 TerraBytes, therefore 1024 shares will be issued.

The issue date of a new batch is according to our needs, e.g., we cannot plot 1000TB at once, so we need to split it in manageable chunks. Also you can only buy a complete hard disk, not like with the asset just a fraction.
With that we need to wait till enough money is available to buy a complete hard disk.
To achieve this in time we have some shareholders who want to re-invest their earnings. Thats, why PetaByte has a balance.

The issuer's price is based on the hard disk price at the day the asset was issued.
In the price calculation flows:
1. local price in the store
2. taxes and shipment if needed
3. Exchange rates:
3.1 NT$ <- US$
3.2 US$ <- BTC
3.3 BTC <- BURST

Keep in mind, that a hard disk alone does  not mine.
A computer is needed.
Power for computer/hard disk is needed.
I did not counted this explicit, but rounded the number up.

There is no need to buy PetaByte assets if you are happy to watch your wallet keeping the same value.
With PetaByte you have the chance to get some (see it as) interest for your Bursts.

IronTiga argues that (TODAY) the PetaByte asset is too expensive. However, when we issued the asset, it was correct.
You can get assets from others than the issuer cheaper.

Demand and supply triggers the price. Wait till you are comfortable.

The choice is yours: Watch your static balance of your wallet or mutliply the balance.

Edited:
We insist on local buying WITH warranty.
Prices change all the time. We use all BURSTs for the hard disks at optimized price. E.g. 1/4 of 4TB cost in average the same as 1/3 of a 3TB hard drive. We expect that soon the 5 TB will be in the same range, then we will use 5 TB.
AT the past purchases 1/5 of 5 TB hard disk was 20% higher.
We try to minimize extra hardware and use the largest drives available by optimized price of course.

Can you explain quantity, price and total. I kind of don't get it.
