In the middle of writing a reply, need a number though, anyone know the number of bytes per scoop?  There is some standard size, right?

after reading the miner source code, i think we dont need disk space at all
we can create opencl kernel of this code : https://github.com/BurstProject/pocminer/blob/master/src/pocminer/util/MiningPlot.java

nonce argument is any nonce u want, addr is ur account number
we can bruteforce any nonce within 240 seconds each block using GPU
and broadcast the best nonce that produce lowest deadline

assuming GPU can do shabal256 at 1 GH/s , that is equal to 240 Giga Nonce (240 secs blocktime) which is equal to 60 GB of disk space ( 1 nonce = 0.25MB )
and again, getting into 1 TB disk space performance, will require atleast 17 GPU (assuming 1 GH/s is accurate)
conclusion : if it is near 1 GH/s its cheaper to use harddrive than GPU

and loking at a glance of shabal256 it is really cheap in computation, i think we really need replace shabal with more memory intensive algo such as scrypt or something to make harddrive mining is far more efficient than GPU or future ASIC

this is my understanding after reading the miner code,
using disk space


and after using GPU, without disk


This doesn't seem very ASIC resistant to me. Seems to me like yes, it'll take more time to be ASIC resistant and ASICs won't be as efficient as straight POW but once you can create an ASIC it's no longer Proof of Capacity and the coolest thing about the coin doesn't mean much... what am I missing?
you miss the running costs for the asics. today you can put 6tb capacity into a miner which consumes with cpu a maximum of 15-20 watts.
a asic  consuming 15-20 watts may reach a capacity of round about 1 tb (compared to current sha256 asics).

Be careful... What follows is stupid but made me laugh while I was thinking of it:

There's so many coins out there that you don't know which one to trust?
The answer's right in front of you, just believe in Burst!


I told you it was stupid Tongue

Rhymes that don't actually rhyme always burst my bubble.

The Web interface is down on burst-cryptoport.io but seems to still accept submissions


I haven't got a payout in 4h and the block no on the pool is way different than the blockexplorer's.

Can someon think about burst-coin casino? I really want play texas holdem poker for burst Smiley

i will like something like plinko game or Spin game...

i would like to try to implement this..
but i need some help on how to implement ingoing/outgoing transaction...

where can i found some documentation about it???

Dice game will be great too. I remember jackpot coin got a very profitable dice site which is open source I think.

If those games can be implemented into the wallet that will be a great way to burn some burst (not for profit game where house profit will be burn instead of keeping it)

Big update
BLTPS Project has got its first payout from LTCGear.
All transactions are made public, such that every investor will be able to see exactly how much BTCs the project is getting from Cloud Mining.
This is the BTC address link, and a proper section has been put in the official thread on Burstforum so you can quickly find it and check it when you want.
Payouts are those with a Green Arrow.
Red Arrows represent transactions going to reinvestment and Burst exchange operations.
I'll remember everyone that a big portion of Phase 2 and 3 payouts will be reinvested.

Stay tuned for another big update pretty soon and feel free to order some BLTPS shares if you want to join this project! Smiley


Update v1.1.3 - We got payed!
Burst Long Term Price Support project
(BLTPS)

Changelog
v1.1.3 - 22/nov/2014
Added the "Updated Mining Payout" link. This is a new transparency feature: every investor is now able to check exactly how much BLTPS project is getting from Cloud Mining.

Investment Status
Share value: 0.01 BTC - Sold Shares: 375 - Next goal: 450 250
Booked Shares (waiting for payment): 60
Hashrate supporting Burst: 174 MH/s (LTC)


Good Job ! Looks good.

Burst Achievements: Get your first Spam message.

I got this achievement today. What's about you guys? Tongue

What kind of spam?

I go an invitation to join some unknown SG pool. I responded by asking how much they would pay me for joining them. Got no response pack  Wink

Right thats what I meant. But I don't answer such stuff.
