Hi guys, tried to use Sgminer to mine Dkcoins but only get 45-47 khash/s with my Gigabyte 6850

Here is my .bat file:

setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx DISPLAY 0
sgminer -o stratum+tcp://drkpool.com:3333 -u xxx -p xxx -I 18 -g 1 -w 128 --thread-concurrency 6144

Using Catalyst 13.12 and SDK 2.9, installed sgminer as listed in the readme file except for the "source code" part which was not so clear to me.

Any idea?

He knows way too much. He also knows way too about bitcoin.

Evan don't play around. Decisions get made with no delay. Gotta respect that.
I think it was a good medium ground @ 7%

14 million minimum - 71m max
22 million projected Darkcoin total supply

I thought we would reach 84 million at some point when I first invested. It's not going to even come close! 20 million total if we're lucky.

@TanteStefana what if at some point in the future if the supply is constraining transactions we implemented a split. Kind of like a stock split, halving the share price while doubling the number of shares. Companies do it all the time with no real penalties. And it would relieve the psychological barriers to using it as a currency. Maybe if there was a voting quorum or something so there would be majority agreement. Just a thought.

@Lebubar I think the distribution is completely fair. It's even still on exchanges at low levels after word has gotten around. If people don't hold any DRK it's because they didn't want any.

DarkCoin really looks like a very promising coin. The innovations are incredible!
Good luck!

Hi Everyone,

I want to give my 3 cents :

1)   Variable Rewards :
With DarkCoin there is a variable reward formula against difficulty (with a minimum of 5), so we cannot know exactly how many coins will been generated every year, worse in 5 or 10 years. Generally people don't like the "unknown". Can we find a formula that permit us to have a more controlled number of coin generated with the time? For example the range between Min and Max go from 10 to 45 million it’s huge. If someone ask how many coins in total? Waht to answers ? Between 10 to 45 ??

For this may be we can imagine a variable yearly reduction of the rewards? Witch depend on how many coins where generated year -1 ?

2)   Smoothly reduction :
I like the idea of a smoothly reduction : not 20% in a shot every year but something like 1% every month or even less every day. What I saw is that the market may become instable around the reduction

3)   Should we forget definitively  about the 84 million initially announced?

4)   If the total coin generated is less than what announced, some people will complain again about the high % of the coin early mined / total supply.

5)   I think it should be the last modification of the reward, so we have to take a good decision all together. May be too much modification can been seen unporofesional…

sorry for the english.

i hope that helps

Coinmine.pl is above 50% again, please spread your hashing power

source: http://darkcoin.mine.nu/poolhash.html

if you care about the value of darkcoin, then dont go to a pool that has so high a hashing rate, investors look upon this as being risky....

Cool, I'm reading now listening

From Satoshi's paper:

"References

A. Back, "Hashcash - a denial of service counter-measure,"

Basically he invented the proof-of-work system that crypto uses

The interview on Let's Talk Bitcoin was fascinating:
http://letstalkbitcoin.com/e77-the-adam-back-interview/#.UyzG517BHog

Would be such a major coup to get him imterested/talking/thinking about Darkcoin…
WOW!

So will somebody enlighten him further about Darksend vs Darkwallet or perhaps he'll accept my invite to join the talk… eduff?

I guess... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam_Back

He's a cryptographer and the creator of HashCash, which was the first e-cash system to use a hashing proof-of-work. For anyone interested, he had a really interesting interview on Lets Talk Bitcoin from a while back: http://letstalkbitcoin.com/e77-the-adam-back-interview/

who is Adam Back?   

Silly bone is tickling again

Seriously, I assume someone important in the crypto world?  Can you enlighten me?

Don't say I didn't tell ya so!       

Great, I hope that satisfies the investors!  Can't wait 'till next week!

There is a website someone put together, but I can't remember where?  Maybe search gpu chart on this thread?  There are links in here all over, but it's a huge thread now

Mostly, for me at least, lower the intensity until you get the best hash acceptance, it'll be lower than in script.  People were talking about the wu or something like that, but I have no idea what that is, LOL.

It's beer o'clock.

First one is at 210240

Will there be a 7% reduction at block 210240 or will the first reduction take place one year thereafter?

Thank you.

I have the same MSI cards. My set up on SGminer is-
intensity=20
thread concurrency=22400
gpu engine=1125
gpu memory=1325
fan speed=50%

System runs at 55c and 1.9 Mh/s
 
EDIT- 1.9 Mh/s per card

This is my thoughts exactly also. And 20% reduction per year is more aggressive than btc's 50% every 4 years.

I have a rig with 2x 7970, that has a 'quiet' 850w psu that the fan is only supposed to go on at >40% load, and the fan doesn't go on with both 7970s on x11 at 2.2mhs each, so that puts a 2x 7970 rig at less than 340w, at most 170w per 7970, so I can confirm that sound plenty realistic, and 6 cards might not need much more than a 1000w psu.
