I need to pay closer attention. Did the difficulty raise again? MY stats on YPool has dropped like a rock on sse11 from dga.

Check your miners - some people are reporting that they're seeing invalid shares start showing up after the miner has been running for a long time.  I haven't been able to replicate this yet on any of my machines, but I'm looking.

yupe, 3 in a row after you mentioned it.

4 hrs after I started 2 instances of xptminer on 2 different machines, I noticed a chain of "Reason: CheckProofOfWork() : n not prime" on my I7 4770, compiled to AVX. My other machine, Quad core Q9550, compiled to SSE, no chain of msg yet.

I've had this too on dga's official b11 Windows build. It just stops finding valid shares altogether and always says "n not prime" for any share found.

Are people seeing this on Linux also?

SOLO or POOL?

In Primecoin, I made less money on ypool vs connecting 100 VPS servers and solo mining primecoin

What is your take on this for large VPS (CPU Core) farms?

Me? Pool.

I suppose if you have large VPS farms, you should make more from solo.

Btw,
Riecoin's block reward is 50 vs Primecoin's current reward of 8 or 9. An estimate of current pricing on exchanges, XPM is 10x the price of RIC. So you have to mine RIC at about 2x the rate more than XPM..

I have always been a primecoin fan, can you elaborate how this is different? or why mine this on all my computers instead of primecoin?

Ha me too.

Short version comparison:

XPM
- Difficulty by length of cunningham chains.
- break world records for long cunningham chains

RIC
- Difficulty by length of prime number digits.
- fixed at prime number constellations of size 6 (p, p+4, p+6, p+10, p+12, p+16), also called sextuplet
- break world records for long length of prime sextuplet

Why you want to mine this is up to you Smiley I am mining both  Grin

Thanks

so, does stratum implementation for riecoin work? i see 2 pools listed on main page, and no workers there.

It works but the fast miners are not yet compatible with stratum pools.

Just happened to 3 of mine again.

Is there a way to have it run for a certain amount of time and restart it by itself?

I didn't realize the first time was about half a day.

I have a script ran from cron that restarts my miner once a day..

I've pushed a few new changes the repository and updated the binaries to -b11.  Changes:

- Import clintar's fix for reconnecting if the server is rebooted to improve robustness;
- Fix too-high dev fee to jh/clintar in source (this was fixed in the -b10 binaries, but I never pushed it to the source tree)
  (The bug:  Instead of donating 0.25% to each of them and subtracting 0.5% to me, it subtracted 0.5% and then donated the full amount to each person)
- Remove unneeded use of atomic header file to simplify build process with older gcc

 -Dave
regular make, make -f Makefile_mtune and make -f Makefile_nomarch all segfault for me. Using a first generation Core i7 920 and 32 bit linux mint 16

Can someone please get a working 32 bit linux build going, I've wanted to mine this coin since launch and still have an empty wallet Sad

32 bit is slower than 64 bit?

Maybe you should boot up a copy of 64 bit Linux if possible?

It would be nice if someone can compile a top 100 Riecoin holders :O I would but tackling too many projects at hand already.

haha you should add me to that list=p



thank you for new miner who ever did it? 4% donation on my 4p server=]

I for one have bought alot of riecoin @2100idk why people would sell coins so low, ether they are mining the coin and no nothing about it, or they do not believe in it. Smh they will cry for selling so many coins for such a low price.

The coin is extremely undervalued, it is not mined via GPUs, and it solves a real life problem in mathematics.

This coin can easy reach .01 when such difficulty explodes and only massive computers can mine and home computers wont be profitable bc of electricity.
Not only that the community exists, but the community is well educated to solve current coin problems!


Also on a side note, someone in real life accepted Riecoin as payment to tutor me and college course work.  College tutoring runs 40-80 bucks an hour soo this coin has already been able to give me real value.

What is the largest prime sextuplet that's been found so far? Is there any place where we can get this info? It would be nice to see how much progress you guys are making.

+1

p=

The size of p is 1856-bit or 559 decimal digits:
{p, p+4, p+6, p+10, p+12, p+16} are all primes
This is the largest prime sextuplet ever found, not the largest found by Riecoin miners? The difficulty was hovering 1200-1300 up until around a week ago, and is 1575 now; is it reasonable to expect that it would reach 1860 within the next few weeks, or does the difficulty value not scale that way?
