Need some help here.

Launched a Virtual server running Windows, downloaded the wallet and started loading the blockchain.

However it only shows 178blocks, and once it has synced up to 178 it keeps going over that, so it now says ~-27 block left and keeps going up.

Any help? why does this happen?

Thanks,

Happened here aswell... currently at block 360, so will finish syncing when 178 + ~-182...

Can someone explain to me how does Veriswap from the "Send" button work in the wallet? is it just for people who got in for the ICO? or can I exchange my Verium directly for Vericoin? if so what's the exchange rate?

It's actually not enabled yet. When enabled (requires exchanges to make a VRC-VRM pair), it will be defined by the rate on exchanges.

Can't "you" just post a cpu miner on github or so ?
If you want it that bad why not do it yourself?

Your being ridiculous...I love how everyone here expects the moon, the stars and everything between. These guys are volunteering their own free time to develop something that could be game changing.

that volunteering argument went out the window when the devs decided to hold an ico

For what it's worth, I agree. It was easy to say we were doing it all for free before. Now we can't say that. But, we did deliver what we said we did (working wallets with the new tech we proposed). So I'm pretty happy. Miners can mine. If they want to mine using a pool, that's cool-- they can use other software to do that.

for many that has worked quite well... but that is not what i said.


before the ico that volunteer excuse would work...

but after running the ico, specifically asking for money the devs obligations and responsibilities have

 increased.  they now have the money they asked for.

so that argument no longer holds weight.

Ok...quite your job...quite your family...quite your life...and dedicate it to crypto. Sure, that will work Roll Eyes

Is it hard to make a pool for this ? At current network hashrate its pretty impossible to find a block with a single PC. How low will the reward go btw ? it started at 17~ and now its 7~.

It seems somebody already probably managed to create a GPU miner and is not willing to share it but will be looking to sell it to other people once that person has mined a good amount of coins.

Would be able to see which address is mining the largest amount on the block explorer, I'm not seeing that...
Because mining with a GPU won't be faster as CPU mining.

Nope, if you're mining to your own wallet it just generates a new address for every found block Smiley


Is there a (publc) external CPU miner yet ? From what I see this is just a modified scrypt-n version..

I'd build a pool if I'd have something to test with and it's easier to build the pool than the miner Smiley

Contact the Devs, they might be able to help you out with any technical stuff

Well.. Who are the Devs and how can they be contacted ?! :-)

The Devs just went through a huge release here....give them a little a little bit of a break!

Huge release ?!

OH sorry, I've forgotten they just reprogrammed the internet and need some rest Smiley

A huge release would it have been with CPU Miner, GPU Miner, maybe an official pool etc..

Well..  A lot of people here volunteer their free time, so I don't see anything special.

However, I don't expect the moon and the stars, especially not here but I just asked if there is a cpu miner available or not..  Obviously there is no public version -  yet -,  so I'll just build my own and share it with you ...  In my free time...

Fair enough...I wish you luck...Sorry for being a dick Wink

Yea we never built a standalone one (no private version from us either), but we wouldn't expect a significant performance difference. All my attempts to get GPUs to mine Verium were fruitless with a Radeon 480 hashing at roughly 1/8th my Core i7 3770K and GTX 980 at 1/10th.

HI !

I'm new to Verium.

I noticed you released your minig software yesterday.

I'd like to install it on a headless server so there's no GUI.

Is there a command line only equivalent of the miner ?

Thanks for helping Smiley

Cheers

It's easy to compile this on Linux. Assuming you have all the dependencies as noted in the verium readme folder, you will just have to clone http://github.com/veriumreserve/verium, go to src, then make -f makefile.unix. The in ~/.verium you will create a file verium.conf with at least these lines:

addnode=vrmsupernode.vericoin.info
addnode=vrmsupernode3.vericoin.info
gen=1
daemon=1

That will get you mining. If you want to be able to RPC connect to it, add the appropriate rpcuser=, rpcpassword=, server=1 lines to it.

Sure, if I write a standalone one. But I don't have time to do that. You asked how we could be contacted-- so I told you. Scrypt squared is Scrypt with an N-factor of 19 (or 20 depending on what you consider N of 1). It's easy to see in the source. I modified common GPU scrypt N code for our factor and it's significantly slower than just mining on the CPU due to memory limitations. We prefer solomining, at least in the beginning so that consensus is protected. You're welcome to start a pool, and we'll help, but we're not going to make a standalone miner for Verium.
