block 28691 to 28692 took 14 min.

Seems like there was a whale miner who jumped in a few blocks earlier (the Π effect on the difficulty) and left prior to cracking that one block and then the rest had to process the increased difficulty. Glad these occurrences are only for one block and not for days or weeks Grin

Yeah diff jumped to over 400 for a few minutes. You sure it was from a whale miner? I didn't realize something like that would have that kind of effect so fast.

I can't be sure because I wasn't monitoring the hashrate at the time, but it had to be, otherwise there's no reason the diff would spike for several blocks.

How many hashes would you need to do that with us already at 7.3G#? As far as i can figure, doubling the difficulty would need a doubled hashrate . . . which would be a lot of equipment . . . like 2.8k r9 290's . . or a few ten thousand haswell cores.

There are pools who point their hasingpower at a coin they find profitable at the moment, aren't there?

Yes, multipools. As far as I know none of them have integrated this algo into their setup yet. Plus, this isn't a standard algo so you would need all of the miners individually to be running the mining SW for this coin as well.

Vote for Darkcoin to enter BTC38!

voted! another vote is to add Bter.com:https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annvote-new-coins-on-btercom-which-new-coin-should-bter-add-in-next-week-502363

Note that both of these have large effects on the price of any coin that goes on them because they enable direct CNY trading (CNY = Chinese Yuan). If you look at the transaction volume of DOGE and VTC, about 20% if it comes from DOGE/CNY and VTC/CNY trades rather than BTC pairs.

We *need* a Chinese webpage explaining what DRK does and a Chinese wallet translation to help these new DRK users. Any speakers out there?

Also, VOTE.

Agreed, we could put together a bounty for a Chinese Darkcoin website?

Genius thought, honestly. Cool

Voted - everyone else needs to vote if you haven't....The Chinese would love the anonymity as they need it more than most.

+1 for wallet translation ASAP as well.

What we need is someone to put up a Darkcoin crowd-funding site so we can organise bounties for various things, one of which would be this chinese translation/website. A Darkcoin version of this would be ideal: http://vertcoinmarket.com/

I could potentially put together a DRK crowdfunding site. Im partly into webdev and online marketing.

Got a lot of work atm but I can check tomorrow how timeconsuming would it be.

Wouldn't really ask for anything (would accept donations for it tho if I have free time and start building it).

Would there be a demand for a site like this?

I think it would be really useful, it's a great way to organise and fund bounties for a coin. Shouldn't be too complicated. I'd chip in a small donation for this, (10 DRK) and I'm sure lots of others would do. Then we can create bounties for all sorts of darkcoin projects such as a Chinese website, Chinese wiki, marketing campaigns, raising donations for good causes (with an eye for generating 'publicity' from them, to prove the darkcoin community is generous and not 'dark' at all), as well as bounties for Darkcoin apps such as wallets designed for mobile devices etc. The list is basically endless and we need place to organise the funding of it it all.

The Future Of Work

I'm wondering, how is our IP address recorded or found in coin transactions? I mean, is it in the blockchain somewhere? How is that information traced?

Also, what is a node anyway? Did the developer have to purchase IP addresses from somewhere?

Just thought I'd ask

The wiki is flippin confusing for me! LOL

Anyone mining this w/ sgminer know why my memory clock drops to stock every once in a while? It used to do it a lot so I figured it was running out of work or something, so I put queue to 2 and now it does it less often. I'm using AB/GPUTweak to monitor. I can probably put it up to 3, but I'm just wondering if anyone knows what causes this before I go messing around.

Using R9 290's few reference few nonreference. All do the same thing.

Hashrates are great otherwise. Stable @ 2.1/2.4 depending on the card, everything seems normal.

So my bitcoins cleared coinbase this morning, and I bought some darkcoin, then withdrew it right away, but the withdrawl is still pending after almost 11 hours. I look this up on google and it seems this happens all the time! Some people don't get their coin for days!

Is there anything I can do to get them to unblock my withdrawal? I've written them twice. This isn't normal for an exchange, is it?

it shouldnt take that long

They finally wrote back, all is good now

So I was just running the calculations... seems like this is horribly unprofitable to mine directly. Did I calculate something wrong?

It's possible because it's nowhere near "horribly unprofitable" territory.

X11 hashrate is roughly 3.1x scrypt. We currently have top scrypts giving roughly 0.0077 BTC/day for 1000 kH/s*. DRK is currently at 0.0083 BTC/day for 3100 kH/s.

Yup, somehow the multiplier didn't get set properly in my Excel formula.

I finally, FINALLY got darksend to work for me!!! Yaaaay!

Sent from Windows 7, arrived in Ubuntu wallet all at once, since all three transactions were from me, LOL. Not enough traffic to combine a pool, and I didn't want to wait ;p

Thank you shojayxt , I thought it was there, but with the switching things about, I lost it, LOL

Glad I could help. I made several successful transactions using DarkSend between addresses. The latest beta resolved the issues that were problematic for several users including myself. There is still work to do but i have been very impressed by the responsiveness of the developer "eduffield" to address any issue brought to his attention. Does this guy even sleep?

Maybe he doesn't?

Appreciate those posts eduffield.

Have you by chance expounded upon the "encrypted transaction network", or at least gave a brief outline/framework somewhere? I'm curious what your vision is for this. I think I've read every post in this thread but I may have missed it.

the users part to setup.

Implementation #1: Building in something like tor to use an existing network to secure communication between the nodes and yourself. The problem is this causes everything to slow down substantially.

Implementation #2: Turn the Darkcoin network into a proxy network and pick a node to securely relay through. This could even

I'm not dead set on how I want to implement this yet, and have a few separate ideas.

Before implementation: proxies have always been supported, which would do the same thing. They just require a bit more work on have N hops before reaching an exit node and would only work for internal system messages.

Implementation #3: Unencrypted relaying using a "Pass this message on to 1 node (and tell them to do the same) you're connected to or if random number > X broadcast", so the message would hop multiple times before it was actually broadcasted by the exit node. You would never know who the original client was because N hops would be random.

Implementation #4+? I'm open to other ideas.

I don't know if he still plans on doing any of this. He used to have it listed on the first post as a feature that would be implemented sometime in the future.

Last I heard he was thinking of implementing a combination of these ideas.
