I'm asking dev to fix the problem since 13 hours ago, time someone pointed out the problem.
Forking the coin, implementing kgw, cause no interruption on mining side, all we need to do is download and run an updated wallet version so exactly what are you insinuating?
Would I gain miners from it? Would I gain fees from it?
I lost 80% of my miners since I keep telling there is a problem on difficulty retarget but I keep doing it cause I want the coin to succed.
Seriously I do not understand your accusations, but it's probably my fault, please explain me as if I'm a kid.
My second question not as much important as first one of course, and "not for trolling
" :
Why you keep saying there is no difficulty adjustement issue? I would be glad if you want to confute my calculations. Maybe I did my math wrong.
Here it is again:
18 hours are gone: we should find over 11 blocks in an hour, 206 in 18 hours. We found 99 in 18 hours (10 in first 8 minutes from the launch, 89 in remaining 17 hours and 3/4)
X-Pools owner is less optimistic than me, he said 23 minutes for a block. He probably didn't exagerate too much because mine is an average which includes first hour and blocks found by solominers in first seconds/minutes.
Dev feel free to confute me you too, of course.
P.s. Miners do not complain much... if they see a dev doesn't care about his coin issue, they simply leave not to waste electricity bill. I myself am not mining this coin at this current screwed difficulty though I won't close the pool till a single loyal person keep mining with us.
First... I stand by my difficulty readjustment claim.
The reason the difficulty spiked so damn high on launch, is because of how tremendously STRONG the network got during those few blocks it happened on.
What you fail to realize, is that KGW, or any variation of it... is meant to DRIVE DIFFICULTY UP when it seems like the network is being FLOODED with hashing power... guess what... it showed just how well it works on launch night. The network went from a few MH/s to over 100GH/s in under an hour... what did you expect would happen?
KGW is designed to keep multipools from hogging all the profit, designed to keep pool-hoppers from making any quick profit... and in all reality... pissing off pool owners who don't seem to understand how it works... is just priceless.
"
Miners do not complain much"
(lies) It's plain and simple though... as far as my accusation goes...
You are a hosting company owner... and it costs you money to run a machine... so you don't turn on a machine unless you can make a profit... it's business right?
Well... you planned on pi-coin being a larger success than it was, and didn't anticipate problems at launch... and guess what... difficulty skyrocketed and it took a minute for the network to catch up... leaving everyone out on profit for the first ~8 hours... including you.
Seeing that you're an IT guy, and probably well-versed in coding... you could easily make your own coin, if you have the skill... yet you bitch at the DEV to make a fork... before the coin is even 24hrs old... and keep going... and the coin isn't even a week old.
When is the last time a coin has forked in the first week? I haven't seen it... if it happened, I missed it... but it shouldn't NEED to happen.
KGW did it's job. Do the math.
And before you say something about the blocks before block 779... block 777 had 158.81557773 diff... block 778 had 639.33454098 diff, and 779 had 2573.73161268 diff... everything before those blocks were the first few minutes of launch and before that was pre-mine. Your argument is invalid.
