burst vs m7m?

Not an easy question. I would say Burst, because it has way more utility now. Also, I'm not quite sure what to think of the latest miner adjustments in Magi (I am not aware of other coins using m7m). I kinda lean to the school of thinking that too much tampering in order to make it "fair" can backfire just as easily as "normal" distribution.

Coindesk did a crypto 2.0 review

http://www.coindesk.com/19-crypto-2-0-projects-watch-2015/

Did we try contacting them about BURST? Would be awesome for them to cover it.

What would be even more awesome if we had a running test case of AT. Perhaps a lottery or something relatively simple we could use to pitch BURST with.

I am doing some tests in the lottery case in testnet. When the tests are done, i will put it live. Also the crowdfund case is ready

That is awesome, I will keep my eyes peeled. I believe lottery would be ideal for a pitch, as people can easily try it themselves.

When you launch it we can start to market a bit.

Thanks for your good work!

blago works fine with devv2 pool.

just use  "Mode" : "poolV2" in miner.conf

I'm sure this has been asked many times but this thread is huge. I'm currently using the dev's miner for the dev's V2 pool but I'm looking into upgrading to blaggo's miner.

Is blaggo's miner compatilble with the dev's V2 pool or only uray source pools?
Are there any advantages to using blaggo's miner instead of the dev's miner other than stability and simplicity? As in will I earn more BURST by using blaggo's miner? (The dev's miner has been perfectly stable for me, no crashes)

-[ANNOUNCEMENT (of sad things that may/should have been obvious)]-


I think, at this point... I'm going to go ahead and call it out...


LTCgear, I believe, will not come back to operational status. They were a ponzi, and they've finally reached the point that they can no longer continue...

There are multiple reasons (for me in particular, and many others...) that this is very upsetting... I personally lost more than I'd like to comment on. Some people I know lost a very serious amount, this is very upsetting news for quite a few people, no matter how "obvious" it should have been to everyone.

We all take gambles in the game we all play called crypto, and this particular one, definitely didn't pay off. Sadly.

Yea, they're still dragging it out on their website, but LTCgear is going under, they're over 3 weeks without payments, and it's clear that "Chris" is likely long, long gone.

Hopefully there will be a lawsuit (I will join for sure.) if we can find him, but you know, not even sure if we can do anything. Let alone find him.


another sadness...

The following BURST assets, are affected...


1. Asset BLPTS (long term price support project) - based on LTCgear mining. Thus destroyed (or possibly changed? I don't know, Nevril will likely post an update when he comes to the same inevitable conclusion I have.)

2. ByteGear (Byte Enterprises' asset also fully based on LTCgear mining.) - Destroyed. (ByteGear will be destroyed, if not only just for the name. Legitimate BURST cloud mining operations will take it's place, soon. Those will be fully provable with both mining addresses, and pictures, videos, whatever people want. Once that happens, I will post announcements.)



I sincerely apologize to all that lost money on this, I myself lost quite a bit, and this is very upsetting, losing my hard and early earned BURST, and mostly all my other mined and bought crypto...

a sincere lesson to me to not only just buy hardware for mining... but never keep too much in a single investment, no matter what it is.

Thank you and my sincere apologies.

*yea, if for some reason, and miracle, LTCgear starts working again, we can decide what to do with things at that point, but I very very highly doubt that will happen.

Has anyone had troubles with transactions not being confirmed? I sent some funds a day ago and the two transactions still have 0 confirmations, is there a way to give it a nudge or something to try and reprocess? They have the default fees, not something really low.

No nudge possible, the tx.'s are probably stuffed stuffed, and will soon just disappear. Try again. Actually, compare the thingy on the right of ur dashboard, where it shows blocks to the blocks on wallet.burstcoin.io

Ur blockchain may be stuck.

Oh, and 1 burst  fee is always fine, it doesn't prioritize based on fee or whatever.

Ah yes the coins have returned now! I'll try sending again Smiley

Isn't that a wonderful thing? I had the same thing happen to me and then they came back and did not disappear into the Interweb. I love where this coin/community is going. I am shocked that the market cap is still so low though. People are buying into a PayCoin scam for millions yet BURST is golden but has not broken out. Hardly seems fair.

Just an idea for plotter maybe to have feature added into it so have some sort of GUI and that you can select total plots across drives and select size and it auto creates them in segment of x ammount of plots and continues do create them to and from auto and once done its filled all space up in segments of say 100 to 200 gb etc.

I'd say a good gui would be very nice, even needed for a more widespread adoption. Burst isn't exactly the easiest of coins to set up properly

any miner out there with support of x32 windows?
the dcct one should work in 32bit if ported to / compiled for windows.
not sure if there exists a binary download anywhere.
after changing the contained shabal.s file for arm it runs under 32 bit linux perfectly.

the POC miner (original one) is java and should work fine on 32bit windows - but you might find it difficult to mine a lot of TB without running into memory problems due to bugs in the windows file caching system.  I have heard that windows 8.1 (and 10) is much better than 7 in that respect.

Unfortunately not that I am aware of. That is why I had to use a newer laptop. You could use the original miner but its pretty dated (that was what I used before switching).

take a look at coinmarketcap today.

https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/views/market-cap-by-total-supply/

bitcoin is not any longer by far the marketcap leader of crypto currencies.


This might set the stage for a whole new way of crypto valuation, where firstcomer is not given a very large value, but quality (which can be defined as anything else than time since coin was released) will be factored in way higher.

If valuation and marketcap changes from being almost only how old the coin is, to being what coin has the most features, etc.  then burst might attain a marketcap closer to bitcoin than now.

suppose crypto investors change their mindset from "buy the oldest ones"  to "buy the ones with a bright future" , looking at capabilities and potential....

bitcoin being challenged at the top-1 spot might make many btc investors consider hedging their bets by looking for coins loaded with features...

longtime investors will look for coins with no in-built inflation

burst might go up more than 100 times in value from current levels, from mktcap of 200K to a mkt.cap of 20M

Developers,traders and others getting involved with burst now might profit from that decision beyound their wildest dreams

so here's my outrageous predictions for 2015

- dollar and t-bond collapse sends people into alternative investments in droves, just like the bonds skyrocketed in 2008s, crypto and lots of other alternative investments go crazy in 2015.

- bitcoin is seriously challenged as the crypto with the highest marketcap, appearance of multiwallets with many kinds of coins levels the playing field and the most effective coins win (burst is one of them) out big time

- AT's in burst are invented which solve many problems and needs that other coins can't handle. BURST is highly adopted in many niche fields

- the large base of NXT developers and service suppliers start moving over to BURST to hedge their bets

- nation stats start basing their currencies and reserves off crypto instead of usd, further boosting and validating the concept in general

- early BURST investors and miners and developers gets filthy rich, fending off job offers seems to be their biggest problem

- it is perfectly normal that a pension fund allocates a part of its investments to crypto, just like it does to comodities. This insane influx of new money further boosts all crypto quite a bit


Love it, and I agree. lol.

Yeah, i think we should. That's our chance to pay attention on BURST.
We should work also on user-friendly schemas, roadmap etc.
