Topic: [ANN][RIC] Riecoin: constellations POW *CPU* HARD FORK successful, world record - page 73. (Read 685265 times)

Took a bit to figure out the answer because of the experiment below.

The primary two are Poloniex and BTC38.

But someone mentioned a few posts back that Poloniex seems to be broken right now.  I just checked and they have a note on the wallet that says RIC is "Temporarily Disabled."  I've filed a ticket with them (and others probably should too).

(If anyone from Polo is reading this and you need help with the wallet, please feel free to reach out to this thread!)

Also verified that BTC38 *is* working.  But because they're China-based, they have a hold on BTC withdrawals.  If you want to buy or sell RIC there, you need to pick another alt-coin to use as an intermediary.  I just tried sending some BTS there (it confirms really fast), selling it for CNY, buying RIC, withdrawing the RIC to my wallet, sending the RIC back to BTC38, and selling the RIC back to BTS, withdrawing the BTS back to Bittrex, and selling it there.  That all worked.

do we have a list of exchanges? ...

seems the op is a little outdated - or the some of the links are broken ...

+1 here .... the more distributed the hash rate is the better and stable is the coin. Centralized mining in one pool destabilizes (every) coin tremendously. I personally don't care about 0 % pool fee's. Pools are unfair to miners which big hashrates, so I would always advise against using a pool unless a miner can not mine a single block within 1 or 2 months by itself. And there is the risk that the pool closes down (voluntarily or involuntarily) and the RICs in the miners account waiting for payout are gone/frozen. Let me remind you of the last big pool which had almost all the RICs network concentrated in one place. When they went offline, not only was a lot of money gone (frozen in their accounts) but also the difficulty sky high and it took days to get it down to normal in order do any transaction on the network. If this happens again RICs is going to be kicked out from the last few exchanges.

It seems the lower the orphan rate, the more you complain .

Every coin will have some miners withholding broadcast of blocks, this is why good hashrate distribution is so important, to prevent selfish mining.

All of the Riecoin pools are 0% fee currently, if your users aren't donating enough for your liking then add a fee to your pool and stop complaining.

uBlock.it is interested in the scientific function of Riecoin, and is looking forward to more world records  

The miners are not interested in finding the most important sextuplet, even having the decentralization you say (part developers .... maybe?) Instead interest the coins ... We, for now, have 0% pool and transaction fee So we do not earn anything! In fact it's just a cost.

It remains the fact that BLOCKS ARE BROADCASTED IN RETURN by SOLO MINERS !!! If this helps the coin then you are crazy!!!!!!!

Simba, what is it that you're trying to accomplish?  Are you attempting to drive everyone else away from your profit center?

Riecoin has one real strength:  It's got an intellectually cool proof of work, written by a developer who knows enough about the math involved to justify it.  (Enough that I'm reading freaking bitcointalk when I should be trying to get my semester finished up.)  It's not flashy, it's not making bogus promises to overthrow bitcoin (yet), it's just got something that's cool in a geeky kind of way that makes it a very worthwhile experiment in cryptocurrencies with a financially-useless-but-interesting PoW function.

I'd encourage you and everyone else involved in the coin to enjoy its geeky awesomeness, not try to tear it down.  It's finding big 6-tuples.  They'll hopefully get bigger over time.  The code that gets produced is worthwhile on its own -- someone modified my miner code to find a world-record 6-tuple a while back.  That's awesome, and more fun than producing code that iterates SHA-2 very, very quickly.  (yawn).

And ziiip's right - look at the orphans chart:  https://chainz.cryptoid.info/ric/orphans.dws

Solid orphan performance with a fast block time, and this despite someone continually DDoS'ing the network.

And yes, there are a lot of solo miners, but (depending on whether you think RFqKLWLtx..., R9KQKgP1, are one miner or several) there are at least two different people, or groups of them -- the ones that mine to a single address, the ones that mine to a different address, and then the pools.

If we could get a bit of that hashrate spread slightly more over the smaller pools, this would be a really nicely distributed hashrate.  It's a bit more centralized than bitcoin (https://blockchain.info/pools?timespan=4days), but it's nothing like the ypool days that you like to reference.

(And, let's be honest:  I doubt anyone investing in Riecoin is doing so because of the current or previous state of the network.  I wouldn't.  The cool things are the PoW, Gatra, and that it's a long-running coin with several pools, exchanges, and a solid blockchain explorer.)

This coin is not a joke, the network only now has low orphans, everything works well. There is also more than one solominer Simba, this coin is doing very well given the circumstances, just look at the price. . .

What do we do? Gatra???

This coin has become a joke! Solo miners who attack the network by sending blocks when they want. But then 80% of the blocks!

I would recommend the few SERIOUS miners to quit mine Riecoin and look elsewhere.

What a crap!

Probably the solominer that uses a new address every block solved the superblock and withheld broadcast until they could work on a few more blocks. Looks like it worked itself out now though.

Interesting... Superblock solved now but it is 2 hours and 40 minutes ago..... And there are a lot of SOLO MINING blocks that report abnormalities. Many seem to be resolved 5-10 minutes before broadcasting.....

What's under  

Is every block reward 45.33333333 ric now?

Is every block reward 45.33333333 ric now?

Only seeing two tx's for that wallet, 518 RIC input
c2bab438f386f6857f66bb822910fe1dd8b69f9ab53d7bbdcdb3fd0c11000e82
and 518 output
e2137fccdc853929b3ce0fbd953ac7fd30a169dbd1996d53c9ca71043f84ed3f

I'm assuming this was a transaction coming from Poloniex? Have you contacted their support?

my wallet is synced, i can sent ric to btc38.com from my wallet.
