Topic: 🔴[ANN][BURST][PoC] Burstcoin | Hard Fork Coming Approximately June 20th - page 71. (Read 375140 times)

one little wallet change might get a handle on the constant forking.

if i download a btc wallet that requires the block chain versus a lightweight wallet, i cannot do much with it until it syncs.  this is true for most coins wallets.  the thing with the burstcoin wallet is that i can jump in and start doing things right away, as long as the server is running locally.  i can literally create a new wallet and send burst to and from addresses that i know of without a complaint from the local wallet.  if it takes my pc 28 hours to download the burst coin chain and fully sync, that is 48 worth of fully forked wallet work that i can do.  for a young coin, like burst coin, that is a sizeable little chain of its own.

i noticed the newest version made some changes, good changes.  my biggest complaint about the old wallet was that if the java did not shut down properly, there was a 50/50 shot that my local block chain and wallet data would become unusable, that seems to be gone.  but a simple code change that keeps people from interacting with the wallet before a full sync might kill some of these side forks

edit: in fact, if you think about it.  i can download the wallet, the pool software and maybe a few other little things and start running a fully functioning pool based upon my local wallet or the wallet on a server and have it up and running before the wallet backing that pool has synced.  chances are that no one will jump on and join my brand new pool, but it could happen.  an established burst coin pool can replace their current burst coin wallet files with a new chain, maybe because they don't know any better, or maybe to be a scammer and that pool's power is then working for them to create another fork. 

i very recently hit my wallet online and saw that the balance was unchanged.  I expected a slight payout from a pool, but i could be wrong and i imagine the pool's wallets have the same issues as everyone else. 

keep in mind that plotting is completely separated from your local wallet, as long as the proper burst id is associated with the plots, all is fine.  i believe that the same is true of mining, as long as it is pool mining and not solo.  i tested and it seems that the miner still reads the plots and processes that just fine, even while the block chain is downloading.

i just posted asking if there is a specific benefit to using the GPU miner and i am playing with the config file now. I can say that the configuration for the jminer is more in depth as far as the file goes, but the same values are used and there is not much to change in the file.  i will post if i see a big difference once it is up and running.  I am re-plotting for this pc, right now only using a little over 200 GB of plots and seeing dl's in the 2 week to several year range.  I have another 200 GB being plotted and will test both mining techniques once that is done.  i intend to be back in the 3-4 TB range soon, but this new pc only has three sata ports inside and that will be a problem.  may have to invest in some type of hard drive enclosure that has a single sata output. 

i honestly do not see that the GPU software will be much better.  it should process the plots quicker and send a dl quicker, so that it is accepted faster, resulting in a dl accepted on a very fast block when it would have been lost.  if it is truly based on nothing more than the size of the plot, GPU versus CPU should make no difference, but we shall see.

A few people on the BURST board were freaking out thinking they lost coin...I initially thought that was the concern here as well. 

i just started doing burst again recently.
"mining" software does not matter with burst, right?

i have an nvidia GPU, but that does not matter with POW, am I right?  i go back and forth between using the miner that comes with the wallet and i think uray's, seems the only difference is how the info is output and i like uray's, seems the packaged miner spits the overlapping error on every new block and the one i use never mentions it.

but, the question is.....there is no specific GPU plotting or mining software, just whatever one you pick, as per personal choice, yes?

i know, but people keep bringing up things that are useless, no one lost money

I was only enforcing your statement in reply to CryptoDude2727.....

To know if we forked or not i have to wait till the end of the download of the blockchain.. i'm at 1/3rd of the whole chain...

not a single person ever mentioned losing anything, we are talking about forking.  where are you guys coming from?

Also for me is not a problem to risk a coin loose, i know that your passphrase (Aka private key) is the only thing that matter, the problem is that with the wallet unusable, i can't follow my investments on Assets, or make buy or sell and account gaining from mining and dividends....

At the moment i'm totally blind for the markets...

Cheers

no one is afraid they lost anything, just making sure we are not on a fork

I'm not a technical expert ...but coins are not "held" in your wallet.  It is a gateway to access them on the blockchain.  Your coins are safe.  If an atm is down/being serviced it wouldn't signify your money is gone... merely that gateway was unavailable at that moment to access your money.  All things need servicing/updating from time to time.

Fyi...I have been using the local wallet and have had no problems.

well, i am in the process of d/l the blockchain and plotting more too, so we shall see

Happening to me too...

i'm downloading the entire chain for local wallet (nevere used before, hoping that will solve), and the online one is stuck to one of the initial blocks (2xxx block) and don't goes on, also waiting for an hour and nothing....

apparently there is some forking going on again, last night i noticed the local wallet was wrong, and then i noticed that the main online wallet is also wrong, great

Try here for a basic idea and the actual results will be plus/minus. I have 2tb and will get 117 coins in less than 24 hours. So varies with a smaller pool

How much is volume of the BURST wallet on HDD now? What is the profit  from1 Tb? I'm just wondering if there is any profit from such volume as I didn't found this information in the main thread.

No question it has longterm potential.

i really like this coin.. its the only coin that can be mined by your average joe with a computer. Definately holding some longterm

Are you copying my posts lol? Looks like you are plagiarizing my posts and trying to add your accent. if you are going to post, DON'T steal other people's posts lol, write your own stuff, jeez!

On another note BURST forum iks buzzing in the asset section. MIKETHEMUG asset made an uproar yesterday as it spat a nice 112% roi for all the investors, way to go! I picked up some more lol. 

still bursting or busting??

Is the HDD your mining with labeled as C? And do you have multiple non-used letters, such as J,K,E?
