Topic: [ANN][GAP] Gapcoin - Prime Gap Search - New Math Algo - CPU / GPU - Zero Premine - page 34. (Read 287669 times)

Hello Skaro,

Thank you for adding Gapcoin to FreiExchange! We will be adding links to the gapcoin.club website asap.

- https://freiexchange.com/market/GAP/BTC

If possible, please use the latest v2 Gapcoin (light blue logo).

Cheers!

Thanks for that!

The block explorer has been renewed until Expires 2019-09-04.

Remember that Gapcoin is not my project.

However, I have tirelessly maintained nodes and the website https://gapcoin.club to help keep the network running.

Things are happening behind the scenes, we just got listed on a new exchange and yet you always seem to assume the worst.

Perhaps ask yourself what have you done to help maintain this important math based cryptocurrency?

FreiExchange is a modest but trustworthy exchange. We were proud to list Gapcoin at you community’s request a few weeks ago. Indeed we like listing the old coins.

Why do we have low volume? We didn’t ask for a listing fee, we don’t prop-up markets in any significant way, nor do we create fake volume. We count on the community to support their coin.

At this point in the ending of the alt-coin winter, please come and help us support your coin by helping fill up the order books at our exchange to make a market. We don’t have any trading fees.

Do not try too hard

You always fucked Gapcoin.

Byeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Nothing is required.

I've mined the gapcoin's I wish to of mined currently. $5 a month per. node is a cost for the project that I no longer wish to have.

Some of these nodes are (were) hosted with digital ocean (who do not currently accept Bitcoin). I may move some new nodes onto a Bitcoin accepting linux host in the future.

I don't have the time or inclination currently to continue with any (software) developments or start a new thread, I could be the one to do what needs to be done, but I'm mostly a network guy, other folks can bring Gapcoin up-do-date, most likely via a soft folk, quicker than I might and/or make a better job of it.

'PttnMe' is/was active in the Gapcoin thread and has recently completed similar work on Riecoin ...

- https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.50911748

I have to focus on other projects (old and new) that will deliver me more sustainable income streams.

ta-ta (for now)  

What resources are needed to support the node?

Testnet is 'dead' again. BS host (cloudatcost - avoid like the plague!) cancelled my account for no justifiable reason whatsoever.

Interest in Gapcoin has certainly waned here along with forum / community / exchange support etc., ...

Unfortunately I currently have no alternative other than to closed down the majority of my nodes and Tor support for Gapcoin.

Gapcoin nodes (along with the Tor Bridges) will therefore be terminated on 31st May 2019. Sad times.  

The https://gapcoin.club node and a couple of network nodes will remain hosted to help ensure the Gapcoin blockchain is preserved.

If I can find the time (and resources) to fully re-launch Gapcoin in the future I will ...

Clearly no one else really cares at present.

Thanks for this one!

I will add more nodes on TESTNET - basically I have some 'free' servers on a terribly unreliable webhost i.e. constant outages, randomly deleted or borked instances, so constant re-installs etc., I run gapminer on each single core instance, rpc mining at gapcoin club.

These instances won't therefore be mining testnet in-wallet - I will add 1 mining instance on other more reliable infrastructure.

A solid testnet will help to facilitate development.

...

Tried to login to the club twitter (in preparation for the #PiDay giveaway) and discovered that twitter have kindly suspended the account (reason currently unknown). Trying to re-instate the account or will get someone else to great a new one in time for the giveaway!

Thanks for the help
Been running daemon wallet with 12 threads (Ryzen 1800x) and in 12hs, mined just 2 blocks....so still pretty poor. Tried the cpu miner Rev 4, and although hashare 10-15% higher, not one block in 12 hours....the GapMiner rev5.1 CRT Creation miner fails ( /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.20' not found (required by ./gapminer-cpu)
)
Hopefully will get that version working too

This is what i get with the rev4 cpugpu miner

@minerja

Glad you managed to get the GUI working on linux ...

Generally anything Gapcoin above Ubuntu 14.04 LTS is going to require these tool kits ... this includes the current linux gapminer binaries ...


The 'math' packages are included with the stages you have already followed. i.e.

libgmp-dev - The GNU Multiple Precision Arithmetic Library - https://gmplib.org/
libmpfr-dev - The GNU MPFR Library - https://www.mpfr.org/

If you happen to have a Intel 6000' series chip disabling hyper threading might be detrimental to performance.  However Anything newer Intel 7000 series on or AMD Ryzen on disabling Hyper-Threading is desired.

LIfe is about hacking, with Linux you can build and set up 5-50 computers however you can maintain without spending $150 dollars extra for each computer just to buy Windows OS.  Windows is not any different than Linux it requires just as many hacks to secure it.  

Money spent 1 time to buy KILL DISK will work on all your computers for 1 price.  Windows OS requires $150, $150, $150, $150, $150, $150, $150, $150, $150!  Kill Disk is how you erase M.2 drives and the small amount of SSD drives that Dariks Boot and Nuke does not recognize.  

Once you learn Debian/Ubuntu/Trisquel hacks it is easy.

Every Command line you can use on Debian or Ubuntu WORKS on Trisquel.

Hi Minerja,

It is just the fact of Life many people have disabilities and Trisquel makes it default to help such users.

So I assume your not disabled thats good, so use SYNAPTIC as the primary upgrade and uninstall software.  

Search for and UNINSTALL Orca

That will get rid of the talking Voice plus it uses a lot of RAM.
And you might want to go into Click Trisquel Icon, System, Preferences, Personal and Click Startup Applications disable Backup Monitor and disable Update Notifier. 

It is not possible to get AMD drivers through Trisquel, but Nvidia repository is

Command Line

Sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa

Than double check your required package through Nvidia website and install it through SYNAPTIC after you update it with the new repository.

Then Reboot your computer.

Honestly though it is an endless amount of hacks really.  I am trying to make it as simple as possible.  

If you want to compile Gapcoin up to date you NEED to use Trisquel.  

Ok, Finally

Found an old drive, with
Distributor ID:   Ubuntu
Description:   Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS
Release:   14.04
Codename:   trusty

I have some previously compiled wallets on it, so have no idea as to what is installed, or how i did it...
but still cannot compile wallet....missing something or other

but when i tried "https://github.com/gapcoin/gapcoin/releases/download/v0.9.2-rev2/gapcoin-rev2-linux.zip"
extracted and using ./gapcoin-qt OMG i finally have a working GUI wallet. No connections, but a quick gapcoin.conf has got me 1 connection

So now that wallet is syncing...but 2 final issues.

1) Why, oh why, is the linux gui wallet always different to the windows one, where is help/debug console, the only tabs i have are Overview, Send, Receive, Transactions....so how the heck to i ge in the wallet to setgenerate true -1

2) How the heck do i get ./gapcoin.qt to run on double click...i can only launch it via terminal
When i double click i get
Could not display “gapcoin-qt”. There is no application installed for “shared library” files.
Do you want to search for an application to open this file?

I have made a file called Wallet.sh which contains 
#!/bin/bash
./gapcoin-qt

but all that does is open in gedit....

Why is this all so dumb, why cant it fail once, and give you a list of programs to choose from, one of them being the one that will actually run the darn file....
I've made eveything executabe, and even done some chmod a+x and u+x stuff.....
Gawd help me

So assuming the wallet sync, since i cant goto debug and setgeneate true- i guess im going to have to try one of the external miners.....sheesh, give me strength

To think, people hate on windows....i'd rather stick with DOS !

Hi,
Thanks for trying to help, but as i said, i have literally zero linux experience, so have no idea what "math repositories" are.
I have started from a clean install using Ubuntu 16.05, and 18....cant remeber, the LTS one, and tried both ways

1) https://github.com/gapcoin/gapcoin/releases/download/v0.9.2-rev2/gapcoin-rev2-linux.zip
This fails with allsorts of lib errors, too many to mention here

2) git clone https://github.com/gapcoin/gapcoin.git
cd gapcoin
git submodule init
git submodule update
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
make install # optional

This fails on autogen, and then configure
I have gone down the notes and tried to install each dependency

Build requirements:

   sudo apt-get install build-essential libtool autotools-dev autoconf libssl-dev libgmp-dev libmpfr-dev

for Ubuntu 12.04 and later:

   sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev

For Qt 5 you need the following:

    sudo apt-get install libqt5gui5 libqt5core5 libqt5dbus5 qttools5-dev qttools5-dev-tools libprotobuf-dev

libqrencode (optional) can be installed with:

    sudo apt-get install libqrencode-dev

I think i then got ./autogen.sh to work
and ./configure, told me i needed to add --with--incompatibe-bdb

and then still had missing stuff at the end.
Oh and i think boost was one of them

So finally i gave up...sorry

Hi,
erm,
Thanks for this tip
I wiped a hdd, downloaded a dvd image of TRISQUEL, installed it to said wiped drive
hmmm
First i could hear a weird distorted voice, which i soon realised was a guy telling me which icons my mouse was hovering over, then he started reading out the names of each icon. Then he started to read out the terminal i opened, oh, and then the webpage...hmm, i think you get it.

Second, the default install was in 640x480, so i couldnt actually see half of the controls. I managed to update software...reboot..still 640x480.
I have a 1060 in there, which is normally auto recognised.
Any way having spend about 2 hrs trying to find a way (in 640x480) to install some gpu drivers, i gave up.

Thanks
J
