hey people.
i have a problem that is confusing me, i have 2 hdd and i have a miner on each with plots on each hdd and they do not overlap but yet both miners from the different hdd are submiting the exact same share. any ideas on what is up?

i have re plotted the hard drives to make sure they dont overlap and i have also tried on 4 different hdd but when mining they alll submit the same share at the same time as if they were all one plot. it never used to do this so im not sure whats changed.
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Copy/paste your plots' file name here: https://bchain.info/BURST/tools/overlap to really make sure they not overlapping.

Also, which are the configurations of your miners?

You should buy mine at a premium price because I have had them longer than anyone else.  Like fine wine and art, the older it gets the more its worth.  Plus, they are MY coins, so there's that extra value too, like if some fanboi bought Justin Bieber's underwear or Tom Cruise's comb or something like that.

Hmm, you make a strong case...

All investors may notice that they got 1 Burst per share today.
This isn't obviously a true BLTPS payout, it's just me doing tests on the software to automate the dividend payment.
It is currently in Alpha stage Smiley

hi

my miner is mining i think and its not submitting shares
can anyone help??

ive done reward assignment and currently plotting

On which pool are you mining? Some pools need a special preparation.


i am mining at:   http://burst-pool.cryptoport.io/        my mine.bat file is:   java -Xmx750m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner mine "http://burst-pool.cryptoport.io:80"

i am plotting using wplotgenerator and currently at around 15% but when i try to mine it only shows "request processing time" it doesn't show submitting share success e.t.c also i am not showing up on the pool stats page.

SO... the price on this shitcoin STILL hasn't gone up, huh?  Is there anyone here still stupid enough to even be mining it?  I didn't bother to read any previous posts before typing this.  I'm glad I left it behind a long time ago.  I still have my 10,931 coins sitting on an exchange in case it ever does pop up.  Feel free to offer me 800 satoshis each coin for them.



If it's really that useless and you think it's that stupid.. then please just sell it right now. Why would I buy your coins at 800 Satoshis when I could buy someone else's for under 100 Satoshis?  I'll give you 100 satoshi each if you want it.

I am looking for 10 betatesters.
I will send you 100 burst and I want you to test my lottery.

See details in my previous post

It seems to me that changing BURST over to a Storj type solution changes it from PoC to PoB - Proof of Bandwidth.  I believe these are two different concepts that should probably stay separate at the core.  To put it in perspective, I have a 65Mbit download and 6Mbit upload broadband connection.  I can tell you that I really do not want to use all of my Upload bandwidth to mine (share hard drive space for actual storage), on top of giving up my precious hard drive space.  

I am not saying that Storj does not make sense (I am actually in on the Early Access of it), but it is a different concept that I do not think needs to be intertwined with the BURST concept completely.

Anyone who says that hard drive mining is no good without being able to actually use the storage to store data, should probably not be mining at all.  Look at Bitcoin/GPU coins/any other coins...none of them are really using their potential or really benefiting anything except mining alone.

Let me know when there is an alt-coin that is GPU only and the GPUs are actually used for massive distributed graphic processing of something useful (CAD drawings, cracking passwords, etc).  Maybe there is one but I guess I am not aware...?  The concept is the same with Hard Drive Mining.

what you say is right. but in my opionion burst and storj in a combination could bring burst very much publicity and a much wider range of users. i think the idea is good and could bring burst to a breakthrough. Also burst would be recognized from users, that until now never come in touch with a crypto currency.

with a easy to use interface, such as a client from folding at home..... burst would have its place in the world for many years......

I do like the idea of usable storage as an option, just not a necessity.  And the more publicity for BURST the better, for sure!

Considering we already have a massive amount of the tech space investing time and money into improving data storage, capacity capabilities should be relatively predictable with steady and consistent growth. Any plans of implementing a purpose for all that data storage similar to storj.io?

Check out first post, burstcoin does have plans to add something along those lines too at some point.

Storj dev here. I think super3 (or another user) mentioned this at one point, but it could be possible to integrate the services. You could run both Burst and Storj (DriveShare) together and depending on what's more profitable for you at the moment, the space allocated to each service could change dynamically. Burst could also be used as another way to demonstrate available capacity to the Storj network. I could see a scenario where I have 10 TB of drive. I offer all 10 TB to Storj and Burst, but at the moment the Storj network only gives me contracts for 5 TB worth of chunks, then you use the rest of the available space for Burst. If Storj can utilize your drive more, you can dynamically allocate more to Storj, etc. depending on the economics.

I mean we're all open-source so why not take advantage of the strengths of each platform?

Unfortunately, Burst's plot file utilize nonces needed in calculations to forge blocks.
The space utilized by a plot file is not 'usable' by other processes.

In addition, plotting files take a long time.  Even with GPU plotting you are most likely going to want to optimize the plot file.
So removing and adding plot files to swap out storage is not desirable to Burst miners.

Once we have that space allocated to a plot file, it's gold, and it's not going anywhere!

There's no reason a setup using semi-optimized plots that could delete to free up space when needed couldn't exist. It would be useful not just for balancing space for other mining, but also for users mining on drives they also use for other purposes. I think super3 suggested integrating it before, but wanted mining implemented in python, which is something I don't know enough about to do.

and for V2-users I recommend the program Burst pool V2 stats by Tex81 https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/tex81-183813   for check your progress
https://www.dropbox.com/s/grl0ozlbzwwqi1q/Pool2%20stats.exe?dl=0



Is this tied to Uray's pool?


Nevermind... I found it's for the Dev's Official pool:

Blago miner is not on the first post.
Where can I found the miner and a how to ? It's ok for pool based on uray  miner ?
Thanks

i think this is the lst version...

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.9552852

i'm mining on v2 pool with Blago's miner-burst-1.141020...

all is fine!!!

Many thanks
But miner crash for me :
MSVCR100.dll missing

Install MS Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio-

Sorry, I make google search and I found, It's ok now.
This miner seem to be very very good !

oh.. read some posts ago...
something interesting news about deadline submission on blago miner...

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.9653200

The new version is tested atm. Stay tuned, as I said, and please donate some coins to him for his great efforts.  Smiley
