Topic: [ANN][GAP] Gapcoin - Prime Gap Search - New Math Algo - CPU / GPU - Zero Premine - page 38. (Read 287669 times)

Again I.

I have already mining some GAP and I have already received some BTC / USD, with own material and energy expenditure and hardware owner.

But since someone started trying to convince that mining in VPS was good and profitable, only speculators (or VPS godsons) are winning and even those little ... lol.

Mining GAP in VPS does not give .. does not end point .. (I tested some during a reasonable time) .. all have a limit and passing the limit cut the mining, or else tell me the opposite and tell me some that I accepted this , but with a guarantee of success.

A challenge ... who accepts

Hi.

I received an email with a warning about my publications here ... what does that say?

...

Indeed. No worries.

As it turns out, you can already buy Gapcoin with a Credit Card* at Indacoin ! ... Who knew !?!

Looks like they also have a Mobile App...

Thanks BitcoinFX for your efforts, remember the Gapcoin Network is over 4-5 times larger now than it was Sep-Oct 2017.  

Who would volunteer to take up your call in the absolute wild west mess here who isn't already?  


( Second Topic )
IF looking for Mining advice using CPU you should install everything related to OpenCL as well as set the database inside gapcoin wallet to 1000 MB.  If you mine from the wallet.  

But a bigger mess colliding with Gapcoin is Intel patches ect.... slowing down systems.  

No easy way to grow from here except 7nm AMD cpu chips/ 10nm Intel chips........

Hello.

Ok, I got it.

I've also been mining almost from the beginning, until I have activated a node list (portugal), and I believe in the project, but the main one is exchange and not record.

Thanks for that!

I'm not the developer of Gapcoin. It was started in 2014 by j0nn9 (see the OP) at gapcoin.org (not my website!).

I'm a long-standing community member of bitcointalk forum and started mining and contributing to this thread when Gapcoin was launched.

As the developer was absent for quite some time and I noticed that the gapcoin.org website might expire - I created gapcoin.club to make an effective public repository back-up of the content.

However, the gapcoin.org domain was renewed and the developer returned recently to pay a bounty for the new world prime gap record. Not to myself or to the gapcoin.club, but to the individual that found the Prime Gap ...
- https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.33012722

That was the last time we heard from j0nn9 on this forum since around 2015 ?

I had a basic Gapcoin mining guide on a free website I set-up when the coin was launched, which expired - so, adding a simple get-started / mining guide to my gapcoin.club website was a good option. Yes I've added some affiliate links for several VPS companies to my own website to help others get started with real Gapcoin cloud mining on their own server instances. It is not my VPS company.

Gapcoin is an original and unique cryptocurrency project. I has survived for so long with little to no development because of its mathematical merits. Many, many merits ... https://gapcoin.club/primegaps.php "We already broke more than 544 records of first known occurrence prime gaps. (Note: New record data to be updated from the blockchain)."

Each Gapcoin block found is not only a block of Gapcoin's (GAP), but also a prime gap record. Thus, a genuine commodity coin i.e. producing two products.

The Gapcoin price is controlled by the free market and supply and demand (price relative to Bitcoin and USD).

...

Story time ...

"This is a story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody.

There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.

Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.

Somebody got angry about that, because it was Everybody's job.

Everybody thought Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it.

It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done."

...

Realize that Bitcoin started in much the same way after Satoshi moved onto "other things" and effectively left the community here to take over.

Ask not what Gapcoin can do for you, ask what you can do for Gapcoin ?

The new community Twitter account: https://twitter.com/GapcoinCore is also my own effort ...

Hello

How do you want someone to be very interested in the record when looking at the value is every day + low.

If you do something for the value go up (much) of certain the record appears.

New World Record Prime Gap attempt in progress ...

21st through to 31st October 2018 - https://gapcoin.club

Help > Debug window > Console and setgenerate true

#NewWorldRecord #WorldRecord #PrimeGap #CryptoCurrency #Bitcoin #Retweet Good luck!"

- https://twitter.com/GapcoinCore/status/1053709623520382977 

Somewhat. Note that the dcct cpu miner is the 'default' miner in the latest wallet release! So,

i.e. Help > Debug window > Console > setgenerate true

Therefore, CPU mining in the wallet currently provides 'optimal' performance.

...

As the original dev. stated the current GPU miner is highly experimental. It is known to perform well on some older cards.

... developers, developers, developers ...

Welcome!

1. Searching the highest Shift range with the CRT miner can get very RAM intensive, min. 4 to 8 GB of free system RAM recommended approx.

2. Ensure that you have the correct CRT file in the corresponding CRT folder i.e. CPU ...

I've just noticed that the original developer did not include the range CRT file in the 5.1 release! You can find them in 5.0 and simply copy the folder crt into cpu folder.

- https://gapcoin.network/downloads/

3. Then try ... GapMiner rev5.1 CRT Creation\windows\64\cpu>gapminer-cpu.exe -o 127.0.0.1 -p 31397 -u **** -x **** --shift 512 --crt my-ctr-file.txt --threads 8 --fermat-threads 7

... of course naming the correct location for --crt my-ctr-file.txt

As a general rule (for performance) --fermat-threads should be 1 CPU less than --threads 8

So, perhaps test ...

GapMiner rev5.1 CRT Creation\windows\64\cpu>gapminer-cpu.exe -o 127.0.0.1 -p 31397 -u **** -x **** --shift 512 --crt my-ctr-file.txt --threads 6 --fermat-threads 5

Then ....

GapMiner rev5.1 CRT Creation\windows\64\cpu>gapminer-cpu.exe -o 127.0.0.1 -p 31397 -u **** -x **** --shift 896 --crt my-ctr-file.txt --threads 8 --fermat-threads 7

Note that -t is actually the same as --threads .

Good luck!

Good day,

Is there anyone willing to share mining tips about this coin please?
I have read, and re-read these 89 pages, downloaded every miner, tried crt files, etc, and in all honesty i have absolutely no idea how to mine this coin.
I have mined under 50 coins in 3 months, and get the feeling i am trying to find gaps where not exist.


Could any explain the various terms, configs, in simplistic terms please?
Would appreciate any assistance.
Thanks
J

At the moment i am staring at

GapMiner rev5.1 CRT Creation\windows\64\cpu>gapminer-cpu.exe -o 127.0.0.1 -p 31397 -u **** -x **** -t 8 --shift 1024 --crt my-ctr-file.txt --threads 8 --fermat-threads 2

Seems like the dcct cpu miner performs better versus the gpu miner.

Indeed.

These things bears close reading before taking the time to respond. Its anodyne nature reveals it to be machine-fabricated for the purpose of account farming (an inference supported by the poster's history). It's as devoid of specific semantics as a corporate mission statement. Mechanically-augmented social exploitation is with us here and now.

Yes. The prime counting / search function could be separated from Gapcoin, although incentive / reward would also be removed.

However, other prime number search projects continue to do ok on this basis, for example;
- https://www.mersenne.org/ - GIMPS, the Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search

Gapcoin is not an ICO.

Yes. Skynet knows.

new world record attempt commencing from 21st Oct. 2018 is approaching ...

setgenerate true

Now your participating in ... The largest decentralized prime gap search - Thanks !

Start your engines (CPU's) on 20th through to 22nd October. 2018 ... easy right + you might even mine some Gapcoin !

...

Now, if everyone on this forum did this we might just smash a new world record (beating our current one!) ... so, some concerted effort for this round ?!?, although, in reality we will probably just keep kicking the can down the road until 21st October 2019 and the next attempt.

...

Working pool software is 'available', but TBH I don't see the point in increasing any mining centralization at this juncture, and without any competition in this regard. The old nonce pool software, for anyone who might want to take a look, will be made more readily available via the gapcoin.network repo. soon.

...

New crypto exchanges are still uninterested in adding Gapcoin (without a fee), the same applies to the crypto / press who are equally seemingly uninterested in actual world record breaking cryptocurrency / scientific technology.

Could this plan exist without tokens / coins? Why is token / coin inseparable from solution? I get that blockchain technology has a goal here but I am challenged to see why the market for this token / coin will grow and why consumers will pay for it. Also, will commercial / industrial users buy and use the same token / coins offered to ICO participants or will Skynet license their blockchain technology to some people while finding issues for token / coin solutions for consumers / retail markets?

What I wanted to say is that it is not worth wasting energy to mine GAP.

"Specifications:
PoW: custom, prime gaps
Block target time 2.5 minutes (with fast confirmations like Litecoin = 4x faster transactions than the Bitcoin or Bitcoin Cash networks!)
Block reward proportional to the current difficulty
Block reward halving every 420000 (about 2 years)
Cap: about 10 - 30 million GAP
Difficulty adjusts every block and increases logarithmically (it will probably take years to get to 50)"

2nd block halving completed at block 840000 ...
