Yup, just some folks taking profits on early gains, wouldn't worry too much. Good time to get in if you're not already or would like to get more invested before the DarkSend release.

Just don't panic sell guys or it will be hard to recover.

Never assume you know more than whom you are talking to  Okay, yes CPU vs GPU makes a difference if you don't know how to tune a GPU.  My reject rates are due to my location, probably should have added that.

Price is staying steady. It might appear like it has gone down slightly on Poloniex but it hasn't. Bitcoins value went up.

That's my pool, shoot me a PM with your user info and I'll unlock it.

Ok guys, pool.darkcoin.io locked my account for no reason. I tried to contact them twice via email but no response.

I dont care about account, but i have ~25 darkcoins there. That's 2 week mining for me!

So i need advice, how to contact, who is responsible?

Thanks.

It does make a difference. You are probably using too high an intensity on the miner which renders it less interactive. Thus it's wasting time on obsolete workload. Decrease your intensity and KH/s and get more money by actually submitting more relevant data.

The ultimate measure of success is not KH/s but rather how much A: difficulty per hour you have. The converted sgminer doesn't have A: but lower your hashrate until you hit <1% in rejects (unless you are losing insane amounts of kh/s).

I know you think that "but if I have 5% more hashrate then I won't care about the 5% rejects" but you are not only wasting processing time on those shares that were actually rejected, but also to those works which never solved the share and never sent it. When a change of block occurs you need the GPU to be interactive (lower intensity) in order to get instructions to change its workload to something else. If its taking like 3 seconds for the GPU to take the signal, you've wasted these 3 seconds processing outdated crap - whether you solve something and submit it as outdated share, or not solve it and move on to the next.

The high intensity & rejection problem is higher if you go to coins with block issuing in 1m or 30secs and less severe in coins like Lite or Dark with 2.5m.

With that implementation there must be rounding to the lowest denomination, so the payment would be 10.25 or 10.256. I think the smallest denomination should be about a penny in value, so if the price rises we could add lower denominations.

That is overstating things. Reading through the thread, it is abundantly clear that the devs and other early adopters believe in the coin and are not planning a massive dump.  

IMO this is a feature -- not a problem or a scam.  Basically, it allows for the devs to have a more fine control over how the coin is released into the market; and thus prevents a “mid-life” dump via multipools and whale miners that troubles many a coin once the price starts to rise.  As mentioned above, if a coin is super-popular from the beginning like Doge then there is no problem as it gets distributed to a wide range of miners.  Even if whales or whatnot show up later there is a big enough dedicated mining community that in effect prevents these entities from negatively effecting the market.  

On the other hand, coins that don't blow up from the beginning and slowly rise in price due to the efforts of the early adopters, inevitably get attacked by these whales/mutlipools -- and the diff increase alone never seems to be enough to prevent a ton of coins of entering the hands of the few.  When these coins get dumped... the market crashes.  The way Darkcoin is currently set up this cannot happen.  And yes, even though Darkcoin is multipool resistant – it is still vulnerable to whales (it was actually getting hammered before the diff /reward system was enhanced by KGW).

Now, I know it may seem unfair to latecomer miners and some trolls even went as far as trying to discourage people by calling this a instamine. But the thing is... the vast majority of coins have a high percentage owned by early adopters.  That is the reward they get for believing in the coin before anybody else.  Due to the diff/reward system Darkcoin might be a little more extreme, but as I just explained that system has a very important purpose.

Lastly, it is not like the devs are not willing to respond.  Take a look at the diff/reward chart below.  

The blue line is actually a hardfork that was put in place a couple of weeks ago to be ready for GPU miners (GPU client first released last week) so that reward wouldn't drop to zero once the hash power went through the roof.  

Tldr; This is a fair coin. The diff/reward is a feature that allows more fine control over how much coin is released into the market and thus prevents manipulation by whales who plan to dump.

GPU, but that shouldn't make any difference right?  Share rejection is about timing and network propagation delays, assuming your miner is working properly and all shares would have been valid had a new block not just been found somewhere else on the network.

Thanks for the explanations. Very interesting approach to couple block reward and difficulty directly.


Yes, now I could calculate it. It's 22.3382606 though, not 22.

Where is the INT() ?


The formula got changed - please correct posting #1 of this thread.

And the block explorer is telling nonsense - Difficulty: 57527.019

Cpu mining or gpu?
