Nice comment , I follow BURST and XMG as well , they have real idea , algo , and value and at the right moment the market will explode Smiley
burst is one of the altcoins which will survive for sure.
based on blockreward and coin settings you can say burst is currently in btc year 2010.
if you look at the btc history you know what this means  Cool

both are "protecting" investors interest long term.. seriously.. have a great weekend or whatever remains from it  

btw.. the ATM, or lottery or API's to and from BURST.. is really great it will be important to fuse with other systems later, fusion must occur for wider adaptation.. no coin will be "alone" I think..

2,100,000 BURST was sold on Tuesday last week at 135 sat... and coin bounced back as if nothing happened.. something else..

you will all do very very well, whoever took that amount of BURST at that price.. congratulations! I missed it I can not not sit in front of terminal 24/7

coin continuous to be very difficult to mine.. I don't know about you but network capacity has really slowed down the entire thing, meaning coin rewards , also block reward decrease should be happening soon, it is now requirement so to speak to have 200 Tera drives to make a dent.. although all depends on the price.. pools should initiate "bonus" rewards to decentralize this a bit.. just my opinion


Good point , mate , I got some small amount of it Smiley

I see you have Magi as well.. I made a substantial buy few weeks back.. because and it is a bit funny.. I did not know about their algorithm which punishes network hash rate.. soo.. I went on mining.. and ooopsy I see 1 coin per day as projection and my system is rather strong (CPU/GPU/RAM).. so I jumped on an exchange and I made a substantial buy..

I looked at Magi because as BURST , it combats "syndicate" of people mining at an insane rate... and blocking decentralization to an extent

this as well as Magi and BURST were featured on a conference together few weeks back..

the only thing.. that might be an issue (but lower block rewards will elevate this) if someone has access to massive free drives (DC's ) which at the rate of sale of > 2 million BURST only this would make sense

win7 has a bad hd cache handling for burst.

i had the same issues. tried different solution with win7, non worked.
upgrade to win8 and your problems are solved.

Is anyone using Blago's miner with vista 64 / windows 7?

I have two pc's and have tried it on both, but if running on either one all the
system ram 16GB gets eaten up and then it crashes, I can only get it to run
for about 20-40 mins.

Any ideas?

I read somewhere that it could be due to drive caching, not directly the miner itself.
Runarufu miner works well without ram issues, but wanted to compare performance.


Use EmptyStandbyList.exe but you will need to use the taskscheduler to run often.

PinballDude gives an good guide on this page: https://burstforum.com/index.php?threads/windows-mining-guide.14/page-4#post-2468

I've no problem with my win 7 boxes anymore with blago's miner.

You plotted with too big of a stagger size and it's eating it all when you mine. If you optimize the drives they wont eat memory.


Doesn't a plot optimizer make the stagger size as large as possible? Is there a tool that doesn't do this?

Also, how does Rurus performance compare?


only a side remark to information theory from my observer perspective without saying anyone does this currently.

if someone wants to leak data through unsensitive log files it is possible to code any information into regular looking log data.
without knowing the coding table it is impossible to detect that there is invisible information transfered.
for burst a really simple solution could be to use the blockheight as reference and then hide one byte of data within the additional information created for this block in the log.
a simple way would be to use 3 decimals on a percentage value which normally looks reliable for that block. this in combination with the blockheight and a secret coding table could transfer out almost any passphrase with log entries within less than a day of mining.
to hide it more you may split this between several number values or create a checksum based attempt.
in other words in crypto i personally can even not trust sourcecode i have personally reviewed (you may use a similar approach within sourcecode if you construct complex enough objects) but i have many coins and nothing happened so far.

Yeah that would be a cipher. It could be something as simple as spacing and there is no way of knowing.

I have nothing against Blago, but I'm pointing out what was happening. So far after switching to a pool I found two blocks the first day, four yesterday. Maybe there is something messed up with my wallet? I've tried using one on the network and then tried one on each machine and it didn't change anything while solo mining.

Twitter stats since New Year's - not much but keeping those percentage would be nice Smiley

Hello,

Is there any way to open the wallet without writing the secret passphrase ? Like in "read only" mode?
As each action on the wallet need passphrase, it should not be a problem, and better, prevent keylogger utilisation to steal passphrase when there is no reason to write it.

You can save your passphrase on email,or text file,and just copy/paste it Smiley
as i already posted some month ago exactly this (to have the passphrase in a clipboard) is what i dislike most with the burst wallet.
for regular mining activity checks i switched totally to burstcoin.eu and to check asset trades i use random passphrases to log into my wallet.
only to do transfers i copy my passphrase into the clipboard.
basically it should be possible to create a "read only" wallet by modifying the java code but it may be simpler to create a dedicated webpage querying the api for specific accounts. i started to work on a mysql blockchain copy with indexes and a different data model behind but stopped my work on it cause there happens so much development which i want to wait for to include it.
each time i thought i could continue and be safe for a while a new feature was integrated into burst.


Why use the clipboard at all?
Use LastPass manager and you can switch between wallets without even needing to copy/paste pass phrases.



Was any one paying attention to the DECENTRALIZED bit? Lastpass is far from decentralized....

Curious why my "thanks" message to jamoes was deleted.  Not complaining, just want to avoid objectionable content.

Use a passphrase manager like lastpass with 2FA.
