Maybe they will keep it if we ask them nicely? It's the only exchange where GAP is traded currently.

meh

well it was something to be expected given the small volumes

Delisted sept 5 polo  wow

There were 551 record gaps in the file sent.

Gapcoin went from 755 total records to 1241, a gain of 486.  The difference is because of breaking its own records.

Gapcoin had 1614 records on 27 Dec 2015 right after submitting.  It's been dropping every month as records have been broken by others.  Those tend to be the lowest merits however.

Can you say about how many new numbers that was?

The Gapcoin results from 27-Dec-2015 to 14-Aug-2016 are published.

That would be a great page to have on the website Joon 9 should let the community know what he needs to get the website updated and make improvements my guess would be that since the halving is sept 17 that we would here from Joon 9 before then no ice between you and Joon 9 and others I know great things can be accomplised with gap coin and I think it's in the community's interest to listen to,what Joon 9 and others require to make gap coin the best coin it can be

There are many different kinds of knowledge.

A person can learn something that provides a temporary benefit but which will decay as knowledge, like how to fix an appliance. Also they can learn something that is based in nature and builds the foundation of knowledge for the human race.

Learning to count integers is good. 1,2,3,4,5 etc. When a person learns integers their mind sees the world a little differently, with a scientific accuracy it did not have before. Prime numbers are like integers, they provide a natural order that pre existed humans and will continue forever in this realm.

If you take all of the integers as high as you can count, and shake out the composite numbers, the numbers that are not prime, what is left is some kind of natural pattern.

What exactly is the significance of it? Is there some secret code from nature? Some progressive pattern that will be found to have a relationship with some other part of nature, space, time or whatever? A person can say absolutely that there is such a pattern, but I can say I don't know what it is. Aside from providing a natural pattern there are probably practical uses for primes. The mathematicians who comment sporadically might know that.

As for which is the most useful, it's probably like asking what color is best. Each of the respective developers probably thought their search was a priority for them. For me, not a mathematician, simple primes are interesting enough, but Gapcoin is probably the most potentially lucrative of the three useful mathcoins, so its the one I buy.

But if somebody had an interest in some bigger project involving all the mathcoins I would support it.

All three are more useful than Bitcoin they contribute useful knowledge the universe is about science and numbers and not wasting resources

Apart from potentially adding some entries to a table of known "records",
they are pretty much all useless...

All three of the coins seem to have decayed a bit, it would be nice to get all of their algorithms' tuned up, if that is the problem.

There aren't 2016 records listed on Dr. Nicely's site, I just noticed. the Primecoin and Riecoin sites also are quite far behind.

We probably need a mathematician's input on what the problem is, J0nn9 or Yom Ki or anybody who knows.

Which is the most useful ?

primecoin: find bunch of primes regularly spaced apart
riecoin     : find bunch of primes clustered together
gapcoin    : find long stretch of non-primes

is gap coin a better coin  at finding prime gaps then rie coin and prime coin I was wondering if anyone knows the benefits and differences between the 3 prime number coins

It has been submitted, but anybody can submit info to CoinMarketCap any time by using the form on the bottom of their pages.

Can we get coin markert cap to,fix link to explorer so good,to see it looking forward to website updates good,times ahead

Here are some examples

http://www.trnicely.net/gaps/g4k.html  More than 100 records
http://www.trnicely.net/gaps/g6k.html   91 records
http://www.trnicely.net/gaps/g8k.html   3 records
http://www.trnicely.net/gaps/g10k.html  More than 100 records
http://www.trnicely.net/gaps/g15k.html  More than 100 records
http://www.trnicely.net/gaps/g20k.html  53 records

There is an updated version of the op https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.15674712 that I'm going to fix up a little more and send to J0nn9, hopefully he can make use of some of it.
Gapcoin has an explorer now. https://chainz.cryptoid.info/gap/ It's still updating.
Note that the explorer lists current nodes too.

I'd like to see the website updated and show in real time the prime gaps that have been found that would be cool

Not much, somewhere between 1 and 1.5 million PPS total. These CPUs are kinda old, Core 2 family and early i7 up to Sandy Bridge. Low clocks and voltage to reduce power usage.

How much PPS? I set 4 different wallets clients on one machine which using same GPU, so approx 4 000 000 PPS (1 000 000 per each wallet) and about the same test/s.
