Block reward 29.6 LOKI.
What is the distribution of rewards to miners, service nodes, developers?

Finance Dex has very wide spread, that is not good for trading. Because you have to buy at high, and sell at lows if the coin won't move upwards. There are more probability to get losses rather than get profits by trading on Finance Dex. I think Tradeorge and Crypto Bridge are good exchanges for LOKI.

How much Hash for Vega and ryzen 1700?

Attention $LOKI Miners!!

Please update your xmrig to the 2.99.1 release. There is an issue in 2.99.0 that causes it to not properly reinitialise when the RandomX seed hash changes - which happens roughly every 3 days.

https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig/releases/tag/v2.99.1-beta

Buy Loki now - or will not be able to buy at such a sweet price

Welcome & Lucky Mining!

Hey Y’all,


The Loki 4.0.0 hardfork is fast approaching! It’s happening in approximately 24 hours, so if you haven't upgraded your Service Node, Miner or Mining Pool, now is your chance. If you don’t update in time, you will be left on an alternate chain and won't be able to talk to the majority of the network.

A full guide on how to update can be found here: https://loki.network/2019/07/12/hefty-heimdall-mandatory-upgrade-period/

Lokinet

If you’re on our Discord you might catch Jeff, the lead developer of LLARP, live streaming as he codes: https://www.twitch.tv/uguu25519. He typically streams on Tuesday mornings, 9am-12pm Eastern (US) time.

What’s going on this week with Lokinet:

Lokinet is entering a feature freeze for an upcoming release to the public, and is undergoing heavy internal testing to see how the network performs under various types of load. We don’t have a fixed release date yet — it will depend on how testing goes this week, but look for one soon. The last several weeks of development have fixed a myriad of issues, big and small, and we think Lokinet will be ready for public testing soon. Hence, we have internally frozen the codebase* to not add anything new (just important fixes!) between now and the 0.5.0 release.

Thanks,

The latest xmrig release supports it https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig/releases

The switch to rx/loki algo happens sometime tomorrow.

how do you mine LOKI on the randomX algo? Where to download the software? and is there a tutorial on how to mine with just CPU?

Very fair assessment. We're excited to see what the future holds for this project. Thanks for sticking around and supporting us for the journey!

Hey Y’all,

This week was particularly busy as we worked towards the final binaries release for the mandatory upgrade period. Thank you to everyone who jumped on testnet and set up nodes – with your help we were able to identify a host of bugs which were fixed in our final 4.0.3 release.

If you are a Service Node operator you should upgrade your node to version 4.0.3. Instructions on how to do this can be found here: https://lokidocs.com/ServiceNodes/SNFullGuide/#updating-your-binaries

Loki Launcher

The Loki Launcher is a node JS package that will allow for the independent management of all the components required to run a full Service Node. This includes managing Lokinet, lokid, the Loki Storage Server and any other future applications we require. When Loki Service Nodes begin to route data and store messages for Lokinet and Loki Messenger, we’ll recommend that every single Service Node run the Loki Launcher.

What’s going on this week with Loki Launcher:

We released two versions of the Launcher this week for the 4.0.3 release. There were a lot of fixes for various crashes, but also support to be able to run versions 3 and up of lokid on mainnet. We also added extra startup checks to improve our status accuracy and made some minor user experience improvements.

Changelog:

Prequal additional configuration system for Storage Server
Update prequal ports to test
Rename port names, adjust prequal output
Abort launcher start up if Storage Server port is not open to the public
Handle “port is in use” error handling better
Store stdout/stderr for launcher when backgrounding
Add *-server-port-check args
Wait for blockchain-rpc port to be open before considering start up a success
Temporarily collect Storage Server startup info for 10s in case of problems with output
Report if the launcher was already stopped when stopping internally
Make sure certain modes are only run with root
Activate Storage Server based on blockchain binary version
Only pass version 4  parameters when blockchain binary version 4 or above
Reminders to restart loki-launcher if mode has stopped it
Strip out launcher arguments from passing all the way to blockchain startup
Remove duplicate Storage Server port check when backgrounding
Put try/catch guard around process check to prevent intermittent launcher crashes
When running port test submit a disconnect message when done
Add unhandled exception logger
Improve HUP information format
Process blockchain stderr
Make sure blockchain rpc server is up before starting network/storage
Change Storage Server default port from 8080 to 23023
Up retries for getPublicIPv4
Untangle retry counter with various repos in download-binaries

Sorry about that, I didn't notice the version in your comment.

Could you please file a issue here: https://github.com/loki-project/loki-electron-gui-wallet/issues

This is not something we have seen previously.

You are not are attentive, I have the latest version.
Why is this not supported?
