With the wallets...

When conducting solo mining operations, the bottleneck in terms of performance is with the wallet in generating blocks correct?
- If so, is this due to CPU limitation, network latency or the coding?
For Pool Mining, is the pool's wallet, still a limiting factor?

In performance, is the QT and Paper Wallet different?

i tried solo and found nothing but orphans Huh

how long does it take to find a block if you for example solve with 100MH/s?

with the current network hashrate, I guess some days.

Yes, I think it´s mostly cpu time. Surely the code can be improved to make it faster. It´s one of the bounties.
For the pool, the limitation is the same.
I don´t think the qt version makes a difference: I would use the headless version on a server anyways.
Paper wallet: you still need a wallet running, to check the blocks and broadcast them on the network.

I'm getting this error whenever I try to run the client. on 2 separate PCs

The error is a failed block read from disk.
It usually happens when the initial sync is interrupted before finishing.
Is this your case?

Not that I can think of. when I start it, the splash screen says "loading block index". I leave it in the background, then it gives that error after a while. btw, the client worked before and downloaded the transactions.

Then probably the block db got corrupted for some reason.
Try running with "-resync" or use a blockchain snapshot, as in the first post.

Thanks, it worked after using the snapshot

And.... the pool is down.

which pool? suprnova is still working. have you managed to create one?

It was Suprnova, and the dashboard was reflecting no workers.
I had spent a few hours doing upgrades and wanting to do some testing... which didn't have good timing with the pool being down.
But fortunately was back up.

Still haven't finished completing a new pool as of yet.

Back to the point. How big is the blockchain on disk as of today?

Just have a look at the full snapshots in the first post.
But, if you start a new wallet, the data size will be a lot smaller, because of the mini-blockchain technology.

Just would like to know without installing it. I've always been interested in this project.

Cryptonite Paper Wallet is now available!

Win 50 XCN!
(see way below)

tl;dr - Download here, run it in a browser on a secure machine, choose Cryptonite, choose wallet type(paper, BIP38 encrypted, brain, bulk), print.

https://i.imgur.com/AgMOpsu.png

If you like cold storage, you are going to love a paper wallet! Working with the maintainer of WalletGenerator.net I was able to create a paper wallet for Cryptonite!

While it isn't live(yet) on WalletGenerator.net, a downloadable version with Cryptonite is. I have forked it off their current version and made a pull request, so it should be live 'someday'(his words not mine) on their page, but this version will be available until then.

Instructions:

Download the zip file
Unzip
Open the index.html file on a secure machine
Wiggle your mouse around
Select Cryptonite from the drop down at the top
Select Paper(w/BIP38 or w/o), Bulk, or Brain
Print

Couple of things to remember/do:

RTFM - The index.html has instructions and information.
Try it first with some small amounts.
Check a chain explorer to validate if coins are present in the wallet.
Unless it is BIP38 encrypted, anyone that finds your paper wallet can ~~access~~ steal all of your coin.
Brain and BIP38 may require that you come back to this same index.html to recover your (WIF)private key. (could be wrong on this)
Once a paper wallet is imported to a live wallet, and any coins spent, the paper wallet will be empty.
Best to make a new paper wallet and transfer funds there if it has been imported into a live wallet.
They make great gifts!

Learn about it!
Google 'paper wallet bitcoin', or check out the links below. You will get deeper insight into how crypto really works, and learn how paper wallets can be a HODL'rs best friend.

That's all I got... Try it out, and let me know what you think.

Acknowledgements: - Please cryptocoin responsibly, and don't forget to tip your developers.

How to win 50 XCN:

Be the first one to tweet a pic of you holding a printed Cryptonite paper wallet.

Rules:

Tweet with the earliest timestamp wins
Paper wallet must be created from the wallet generator in this post(not just your doodles of your keys)
50 xcn for the winning tweet, from my personal account
Tweet must contain the following: a link to this post, hashtags: #Cryptonite #XCN $XCN #paperwallet
proof of printing - an image of you with the printed wallet (don't use the wallet you fool, you just shared it with everyone!)
PM me the tweet
No nudes, this is a family coin... It's up to you really... I don't really mind either way
This is a unofficial thingy I am doing, not the devs. All on me, because Cryptonite paper wallets rock!

Thanks so much! Feeling so much better about having my xcn off exchange and on a paper wallet.

I'm right now testing this - looks great and I'd like to use it to gift some xcn to friends.
Which leads me to the question: How does one import a private key into a xcn wallet?

I think it should be the same as for any other coin: In the wallet console type "importprivkey "cryptoniteprivkey" "

Can anyone tell the best settings for mining XCN with GTX 1080 Ti?

has anyone heard from ocminer why the pool is always disconnecting? I see he is active in other coin topics. It is getting to bad to mine at supernova.
