Too
 many Linux distros, just like there are too many Crypto-Currencies.
 Probably the same crowd/agency pumping out new Linux distros to
segregate is also responsible for pumping out new crypto-coins?  Or at
least they are using the same strategy.  

It might work on your Linux, but I can't even get Bitcoin to install
from the debian package due to conflictions in the softwares the new
Bitcoin Core uses.

But, whatever help you can give I will try to get it to work.  I am
using Libre Linux distro but I can still install non-free software
manually.  (except not everything)  

Debian packages are usually the best.

I will send you 10,000 G.A.P. if you can put together a Debian package for Gapcoin that I can get to compile and install.

Thank
 You! That 1 Tor Node will help build peers faster on gapcoin.conf node
list.

Sent you 1000 G.A.P. with 100 Tip!

Didn't expect to find someone with proficiency so fast, hopefully you
will stick around.

I can't actually get the Linux Wallet to build either, which is why
again I hope for a proficient debian package.  ByteCoin and Bitshares
crowd seems to be the only proficient debian users.


Cryptophillanthropist hope you can get it working for windows wallet use
 " SetGenerate True " command and " Help "  to get a complete list of commands.

Apparently only one person has figured out how to
 use the GPU miner so my "noob" request might take a while because
everyone has tons of time to spend figuring everything out like a pro.
 Especially without any good manuals or instructions!

The wallets in the OP are the current updated Yitang Zhang Algo, but
there were lots of instructions posted by Jonn9 how to create custom
sifts recently, but using the CPU miners versus the in-wallet CPU miner
is no difference unless you expect to get the GPU miner working!


@UsernameNumber7

Donation / contribution confirmed! Thank you.

In the recent past I have successfully built the linux daemon, wallet and GPU miner for Gapcoin. I will endeavour to post some guides soon once I have collated the notes that I have.

" Getmininginfo " is a better command to use after " Setgenerate True "
to check your mining.  Never hurts to have a CPU hardware Temperature
Monitor to make sure you installed all your computer hardware correctly.
  
New AMD hardware looks good to mine G.A.P.

Looking forward to getting back into GAP! Having trouble using Gapminer 5 with the crt files could someone post a quick how-to for Windows ? Also some tips on miner compilation for linux as well please, I use both but am far less proficient with the latter.

I also have a few servers we could use for nodes, PM me instructions or possibly for access to set up. Thanks again!

crt-rev5.1 cpu miner release:

- https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11721289

crt-rev5.zip contains some crt .txt examples (which you can demo/test/use)

- https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11296309

Example;

crt-22m-512s.txt
Code:
|== ChineseSet ==|
n_primes:     74
size:         11703
n_candidates: 822
offset:       3258873678094441969978037244324258254780779132068161148845329055794575495061802888673327604486925210609362724628749476892666358160934842851313197663884

Place the crt folder in the same folder containing gapminer-cpu.exe

Create a new desktop shortcut for gapminer-cpu.exe > 2nd mouse button > shortcut (Tab) > properties > Target (field) after /gapminer-cpu.exe add;

Code:
-o 127.0.0.1 -p 31397 -u gapcoinrpc -x YOURRPCPASSWORD --threads 8 --fermat-threads 7 --shift 512 --crt crt/crt-22m-512s.txt --sieve-primes 10000

Save. Start the miner using the shortcut.

--threads are the number of CPU threads : http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.html

--fermat-threads should be at most --threads minus one.

i.e. a single dual-core PC with 2 threads would be --threads 2 --fermat-threads 1

There is no point in using crt mining with a single core PC. In fact, it is easier to simply; setgenerate true in the gapcoin wallet > console and do getprimespersec to confirm its working ok. This also applies to using the daemon on linux. On a single core linux VPS you are again best mining with the wallet daemon / capcoin-cli.

gapcoin.conf example;

Code:
listen=1
daemon=1
server=1
port=31469
rpcport=31397
rpcuser=gapcoinrpc
rpcpassword=YOURRPCPASSWORD
maxconnections=8

Thanks!

Well
 Yomki, I think you seem like you know many angles, of course this is a
simple Random Number Generator!

First it needs to be honest and not a controlled number generator, but
feel free to explain yourself so we can all learn from you if you
disagree!



Now moving on this is just a simple random number generator used to
calculate gaps on any scale desired.  

Are you familiar with Colored Coins technology?  It can be overlayed
upon the Blockchain?  So for instance I wish to design a simple 1 bit
sift circuit, I would utilize colored coin schemes to encrypt my
pathway.  If someone can guess the path and the color they can break the
 encryption.

Moving on, so we can customize our computer circuits to travel the
galaxies encoding our pathways using such random circuits as our base
paths.


So a 256 bit sift would entail 256 color coded sifts to generate 1
circuit of encrypted pathways 256 sifts deep.

The wallets in the OP are the current updated Yitang Zhang Algo [...]

Why do you call it this?  It has nothing to do with Zhang or his work, and he isn't connected in any way to the algorithm used.

Quote

sifts recently

j0nn9 last posted in mid-2015, about the same time as his last commit, which is a stretch of "recently."  I hope he's doing well.

But the point is true that using different shift values helps search different ranges, improving the number of results.  Gapcoin has fallen below 1000 records, now holding about 1.1% from its peak of 1614 records and 2.1%.  It's debatable whether this is a good measure.  Right now there are big spikes around length 85, 347, and 232.  These are for the shift values of 25 (the original setting), 896, and 512 respectively.  pdazzl had quite a few posts about different shift amounts in 2015.

The length page no longer shows data, and the files from the downloads page are gone also.  So no more gapcoin records recorded unless someone digs them out of the blockchain.

We need to establish a independent nodes using Tor .Onion addresses or the Free I2P eepsites if someone who is already doing that.  There are too many obstacles inside the internet to function.  Bitcoin only works because it as first mover status and steamrolls its way through, but Gapcoin needs to become smaller and more intelligent to resist the Censors.  We won't make it out of here otherwise in the dumps. 

I will send someone 5000 or more Gap to establish at least 5 .onion seeder addresses for Gap and or I2P eepsites.   Depends on how I like it after testing. 

Aiming to reinstate some Tor addnode=.onion nodes for some other coins, also ...

(gapcoin.conf .onion test node) - GfPgFXmuH1XFTBtjHcVH1Bju4SbaeqWYeR

addnode=gapr7miih6qnvpa5.onion


Donations and/or investor offers for 5 more nodes considered!   Grin

Is the wallet in the OP the correct one? I seem to remember some updated wallet from awhile back. Could someone please advise which version is the one to use, thanks Smiley

I've previously set-up (and dissolved) many Tor addnode = .onion for other coins in the past including DNET (now Pivx), NAV and others. I perhaps ran the first known public Bitcoin Tor .onion under an alternative forum account named 'xeronet'.

The crypto community masses here generally don't donate anything any more or in the main even bother to fully utilize such offerings that helped in making Bitcoin great.

Whilst your offer is appreciated, with respect, 5000 GAP at the current exchange rate wouldn't really even cover the costs of set-up or administration of one node for much more than a few months, even if the node was also mining GAP itself.

~ Great progress usually only facilitates when philanthropy or investment recognises the people of genius or projects of certain merit, like GAP. This is now most certainly a dichotomy of establishing a truly successful alternative currency.

I could add Tor support to my single remaining Gapcoin VPS node, although I have no idea how long I might be able to run that for, when the immediate costs often outweigh the benefits.

If I still had a bunch of Bitcoin I would do it (as well as for a load of other cool projects), but I don't, so sadly I cannot.

When you pick where to write the Gapcoin Folder on your harddrive on first start up from this site you can create

" gapcoin.conf " next your wallet.dat file ect......and add the node list by copy/paste

why not, actually more socially active than XPM, ain't that prime?


this is a worthwhile project ,would be good if we got some more people interested and get a bit of a

The web page is working again, thanks to whoever got it going again.

Gapcoin just got a new top 20 record, with a merit of 34.66, for the number 16 spot.

In December 2014, Gapcoin first made it on the top 20 list with two gaps of merit 33.32 and 33.08 (number 13 and 20 respectively).  It peaked in May 2015 with positions 11, 14, 18, and 19 with merits 33.49, 33.32, 33.27, and 33.27.  The bottom two dropped off the top 20 list in October 2015, and in June 2016 Gapcoin didn't have any top 20 merit gaps.  At the start of 2017 it takes a merit of 34.52 to get on the top-20 list, and Gapcoin's second highest merit (the 33.49 that was at one time #11) is now number 55.

Would/Could Somone develop an updated Integrated GPU/CPU in-wallet GUI Miner for Gapcoin? 

Is there anything wrong with the existing miners? I think GUI miner wrappers are for newbies.
