Am I misunderstanding something about the diff adjustments, or is something strange going on? It's jumping from the 150s into the 260s while the network hash rate barely moves. Unless the pool display of network hash rate is off of course.

Edited to add: I understand KGW, but it shouldn't make diff jump around that much if the network hash rate goes from (e.g.) 4.3GH to 4.7GH. Should it?

Which pool are you mining on? When I was on smalltimeminer, it used to jump around like that. I think it is a configuration glitch with the MPOS web site... If you are GPU mining, you can see the net difficulty in the miner, and that seems to be more accurate. I think KGW might cause MPOS to spas every now and then

I'm on coinmine.pl at the moment. I'll check the CGMiner output next time it happens, though if it's an MPOS glitch it also extends to the displayed difficulty for solved blocks. Hmmmm.

Maybe a BIG miner jumped on for a few, it's back down to 150's

Two more. That's it, I'm taking a break. Cool

XwBidPQVnGFEzqfJbTybS9gyXX2yu1JbfM


Love it, just ONE small change and we are going to use it!

Made the outer ring silver. If you can make us that with a transparent background, we are DONE!

And when we get the physical coins made I will send you one.


Agree !! Really nice...

I want one real too .... Roll Eyes

Me too!  That'd be so cool!


For the back of the physical coin we will need a design for that too! Who ever designs it will also get a physical coin free!

Max 7 colors, no gradients!



lol, difficult to mint IRL, don't you think?

Darkcoin the only coin on the top #20 list that is on the rise! ALL OTHER COINS TOOK HITS.
http://coinmarketcap.com/

I love this coin, but I still cannot figure how it's defying the wrath of btc right now. Oh well makes me happy regardless Smiley

Because it's the next BTC of course?

SAME error as YOU   Huh


About a 10% increase for me...

Any chance of a windows compiled version?

I removed now the big optimization, too much CPU dependent... Try now and PM me if you want again that 10%, I'll say to you what change on the code...



Ack! I just tried compiling it on other machines, and I get



Ok, I fixed the remove, now you can compile. Expect 10% as before where to had it.

HammerHedd and  the others, if you have different machines and different behaviours, please send me a pm with a table like this:
Code:
  CPU  ------- v1.3  -------  new v1.3
i7-3770k-------459khs--------511khs
  

Some more interesting results. I really need to play with the 3770 in the other computer...

Code:
  CPU  -----------------------v1.3  -------  new v1.3
E5-2650 0 @ 2.00GHz---------45.52----------41.12
E5-2680 v2 @ 2.80GHz--------47.08-----------fail

18    DarkCoin   $ 3,742,008   $ 1.10   3,409,091 DRK   $ 82,075   -100.00 %  Shocked

Sabotage in coinmarketcap Grin

Yeah what is with that? How does a coin go from +15% to -100% in an hour without the price changing?

Bug? Hack? Who knows.

No that coinmarketcap site is notorious for doing this type of shit. Last week they made a coin go up +5000% when it was realy down in the shitter. Can we get a DDOS on coinmarketcap please? thanks

so whats the coin really at?  is there a site similar to coinmarketcap?

aaaaaand we're back. voodoo economics

18    DarkCoin   $ 3,622,730   $ 1.06   3,409,154 DRK   $ 81,754   +4.24 %

A few days ago I think it was pot coin that went up to #2 spot and it said it went up by over 5000%+ or something ridiculous. Either someone is purposely doing it or the algorithm they are using to come up with the stats is broken. Either way its garbage.

alternatives?

There's room for innovation. Not much alternative.

PM Me


This site   http://www.cryptmarketcap.com/   was up a few days ago, it's down right now their Twitter says DNS problems at their host... anyway its the same idea as coinmarketcap but had frankly a better interface/charts and listed maybe 70-80% of the number of coins? It's a good alternative for anything that wasn't super new. I can't recall if DRK was on it - but I think it's worth bookmarking for when it returns.

Thanks chap!

I GIMPed a few variations using the gold/blue design but altering it either into a monochromatic, or into different color/darkness setting.

http://postimg.org/gallery/akvw7czu/

I like this one for the gold version: http://postimg.org/image/jjgzsz3w9/

Some might be a bit too dark. Keep in mind a lot of detail can be lost when viewing dark images on certain screens, so for a lot of those the coin will just look black-ish.

The new design kinda looks like a superhero logo. Cheesy

Also, isn't heat (from a physics perspective) considered a by product, or mark of inefficiency? An incandescent lightbuld uses part of the energy input to make heat, which is inefficient. An LED light makes much less heat, and is much more efficient (as a measure of energy input vs light output).

Indeed, but all of the electricity used by a computer is turned into heat, there is no other type of energy output (if you ignore light from the screen and sound from the speakers).

As a Physics major I have to jump in here - not all of the energy used is turned into heat, in fact most isn't turned into heat at all. Heat is basically all of the wasted energy needed to run the computer. The rest of the wattage that isn't coming off as heat, the majority of the energy, is being used to do work. Basically flipping a bunch of transistors (switches) many times per second, spin hard drives and fans, etc. Heat is a waste byproduct of doing work in imperfect electrical circuits (ones with resistance, ie not a superconductor) - nothing more!

To the first question, yes it could be that it's a sign of inefficiency - but it could also be a sign that the mining software is not using the full potential of the cards. Wink

Sorry this is getting off topic, but I must disagree with that statement.  Exactly 100% of the electrical energy used by a computer is turned into heat.  All of it.  You can count the spinning hard drive as kinetic energy but this too is converted to heat too when it is powered off and spins down.  The useful work a computer performs is not a form of energy.  If the heat output does not equal the electrical energy input then your computer has broken the law of conservation of energy.

I second this notion, if you were to run a computer in a vacuum (or outer space) it would heat up continuously until it burned out. The energy is expelled 100% as heat on the other end and here on earth the heat is dissipated through oxygen (chip --- heat sink --- air (or water)). The lower temps were seeing mining dark is simply because the miner hasn't been optimized to use 100% capacity. Nothing more, nothing less.

There is something wrong with that picture, the graph shows increase, I have no idea where they get -100 unless the info is hand input and someone made a mistake?

updated lost some cents, up 4+%

It's bull shit. They just get on and make up a number if they want to manipulate a coin. Seen it over and over on there.
