Update and News:
Burstcoin.de is now conneted. I´m now working on my website, hopefully it will be online next week.

300k to go in the CF. Please do some donations!!!! How to donate? please look into my footer.

You can also support me by sending direct to my Burst Account: BURST-AJ63-3W8L-FGBT-2ALZE

Thanks!!!!

burst.ninja is vastly superior to any and all existing pools (that I have used) on all levels.

Nice new domain.
Much faster/leaner js ui.
Cleaner layout.
Faster communication

Much love to burstcoin, Catbref, Crowetic holding it down and making one of the most innovative cryptos easier to use, mine and adopt by the masses.

Guys, i need your support in the "BurstOSandARMSupport"  CF case!

It could be a cool investigation !  Think you can mine in a 60 $ mini ARM board, like the Banana Pi, with very low energy usage! I need one ARM board with sata or usb 3.0 support  for porting the current Burst Tools to ARM arquitecture, and do some benchmarking.

I create a separated post for any questions or proposition, and if its funded, share there my results and the ported tools

Thanks for your attention! 

community is expanding on all fronts , congratulations all! and majority of people (speaking of of out there in the world) still don't know what a blockchain is, imagine if they knew  

This is a mostly very pleasant and helpful community. I'd appreciate it if we kept it that way.

As for blago, I know for a fact he has some nice things planned out for his miner and has proven trustworthy. So lets all give some kudos to all our devs (since we didn't really pass with flying colors on the CF side so far )

Yes, i can be patient(i am most of the time), but it depends on my mood somtimes(rl is not easy at the moment). I guess it's a trust problem. Trusting people over the internet is hard especially when so many get screwed by others and it's nothing new for altcoins. Sorry if anyone got offended by my words.
As for why i mine, it should be pretty obvious. I don't have much, but see what i give as investment. It could work out or maybe not, but i got some hope. And yes i don't have much time to keep things running and profitable(or get as much Burst/day), that's why i am hoping for a click and done solution, like installing a program and keeping it running.
I have exams right now and look into the forum and wallet once in a while. I don't know how to setup a pool or write a miner or plotter and not time to learn it. I don't even know how to solo mine(doesn't really matter, have not enough TB anyway).

;TLDR
Be patient and friendly, and everyone else will be.
Shout and insult others, then don't be surprised to be treated appropriately.



calm down, man. The critique in the last 3 postings were all about YOUR TONE.

Let that sink in.

Again. Take yourself back for a moment, it is not about you personally, listen to what others say, it is about _how_you_behave_.


My view on it:
Transfer the situation to a different context, like people standing together and discussing.
You changed it from a technical discussion to an argument.
You are directly and indirectly __accusing__, you are impatient and you try to argue with "statistics" albeit _I_ have the impression that you even seem to lack understanding of variance and population parameters involved.

So, you need to understand that people are free to walk away from this silly argument  "with a hot-headed 18 year old".


PS: If you "don't have time and money to spare" what are you doing here in altcoin mining anyway ?

great Blago!!!

this is reeeeeeeeeeeeeeally useful,
you safe windows users life!!!

thank you!

You want me to shut up? Use that ignore button. The best way to kill this coin is to bash all people that have problems with it, way to go.

Please Mergesort, change the pool, mine solo ... open your own pool. I read enough of your problems. Open your own thread at burstforum.com.

The difficulty is rising alot, more than the stats show. I'm happy that crowetic and others are developing the pool code, because I'm also not entirely happy with urays pools.

My payout after 48h right now is 253 Burst. I don't realy want to complain or accuse anybody. I am not a coder, i can't tell you if a pool works good or not. All i can do is look at the results and a 1/8 payout compared to other pools is not good in my eyes. What i will do now is switch pool and test it again to prove my point. Sorry if i sounded to aggressive, i am not rich and can't really waste space, time and energy right now.

Mergesort:

See that staement right in the middle of the screen "Deferred Payouts   1204". 1,204 payments of less than 250 burst have been deferred. Given 50-55 miners currently, about 25 of those are yours - well, 25 if you were still mining here. The code burst.ga was running is the same code many of the pools are running, and that code has a problem - payments it claims to have made simply don't exist, the transactions disappeared into the ether. I assume this is why the beta code was pushed to burst.ga/ninja - the code it was replacing was really bad. The pool code is being actively developed on pool.burstcoining.com, and once shown to be stable and correct pushed over to burst.ninja. Burst.ninja is running from the ground up new code, and that code is solid and correct,

Catbref and Crowetic are extremely honest pool managers and developers, and the aspurtions you have labelled them with are very uncalled for. Crowetic has paid out of his own wallet to correct errors created by the pool code, and what you insinuate is outrageous. Yes there are hiccups with the new code, but to imply what you did is just wrong.

Personally, I hope you apologize to Crowetic, and point your miner back at the pool.

Haitch.

Oh my goodness guys, so flippin funny!!!

In order to get an effective and FAIR payout system, we've based payouts more on the left pie than the right, meaning the person who finds the block will get more of the payout than the people who don't. Then there is a distribution ladder that you can see on the right with percentages.

That being said, there have been a few changes to the payout system recently that may have caused a few delays.

But, right now I still think it's more fair to pay the person who finds the block more than everyone else in the pool. If there are a lot of complaints about this, I will change it, but so far you are the only one who is saying they haven't received a payout at all...

please PM me and we can figure out the issue.

There is absolutely nothing fishy about the pool, and I am totally honest with everyone. There is no way I would ever steal anything from anyone, and I really don't like that that is what you're alluding to.

Burst.ninja displays it on its stats page. How the info is extracted though I am not sure. Catbref can answer that for sure

Is there anyway to view what the deadline was that won a block?

for me the idea that one AT "speaks" to another is the interesting part in this pool concept.
this way i hope to be able to secure the mined balance for the pool.

setting up an AT which handles the coin sending to the pool AT may be sufficient.
a simple trigger if the balance of a mining AT reaches a block reward level increase should still work.
to prevent that nobody can simply send coins to the pool AT to become included in the coin distribution the pool AT shall only consider coins send by the mining AT as valid. but if someone adds a triggerable amount of coins to his mining account it should not break the overall coin distribution dramatically simply because this miner may get on average less coins back than send.

regarding the fees i am not sure if all this makes sense.
based on a timeframe of one week the miners AT would have to run about 2520 times.
if the cost for code executions are evaluated on runtime the short version would be to exit if the balance increase does not trigger and the longer to send out coins to the pool.
set the fact that the miner mines at least 10 blocks in that timeframe of one week the fees would be about 3.5% with current rewards.  
for the pool wallet AT it should be enough to run only once after the timeframe has ended.

i think if i find some time i will take a look onto the assembler and try it out. i still have some burst to play with.

Although an AT can work well as a way of distributing funds (within limits of the number of accounts it could do so due to memory constraints) the main issue I see is that AT has little knowledge of what is "going on" within the blockchain it sits on (and this is pretty much by design so it can be "portable" across different blockchains that use different "proofs").

Perhaps we could add some "platform specific" AT API functions to help with this kind of thing but it for now I doubt it is going to be a priority for our team (we are always happy to have others join us if others want to push to get platform specific features provided).

i thought a bit about options to utilize the at technology to do a distributed mining pool for the big miners who find blocks on regular basis.
currently i am not aware of the exact way the rewardreceipient works and if it is possible to mine with local wallets instead of submitting shares.
if i remember correctly the posts when the reward receipient has been introduced the idea was to be able to reuse solo plots while the first pool only held the private keys for the miners.

my approach would be to mine solo with a local wallet with an active at for the account transfering mined block rewards directly to a miningpool at which holds and distributes the funds.
the decentralized miningpool at would have to somehow be told by the miners at that the miner joined the pool and to log its send burst to the at.
regarding the situation someone has joined and stopped mining for the pool the period of time for the coin distribution would have to be set to a time in which 50-100tb would be able to find at least a few blocks. if someone stopped to mine for the pool after half of this period the dynamic payout ratio would respect this cause the pool at would know how much everyone has sent to it.
after the defined time (5-20 days) all funds get distributed to the miners based on their coin ratio.

this may sound a bit complex and i am not sure if a at would be able to gather the required data for the distribution but due to the quite big payout delay after blocks have been mined the distribution should be as fair as possible.
the at running costs i cannot estimate due to a lack of knowledge but the local ats would be payed by the miner themselve and the pool at would have to be funded.

does all this sound possible or is it a too complex usecase for the current at implementation?
 

Last night there was a good post about the idea of betting on sports fixtures using BURST. I am open for taking bets on all of the champions league games tonight. Max bet on any field is 10,000 BURST. I will be giving you the same odds as are on Sky Bet at the time i post this. I will start with Home/Draw/Away choices, but if you have a specific bet then message me and i will check the odds and be happy to take the bet on with you.
