Topic: [ANN][YAC] YACoin ongoing development - page 90. (Read 380091 times)
It sure does seem like the verters are mounting an impressive pump and dump, but it also seems to be that they are building the community that may allow it to survive. I know that there was a proposal to implement Zerocoin on top of Yacoin, but this now seems to be heading to Vertcoin first. This seems like a very big step in the right direction. Is this still gonna happen for Yacoin? I gotta say I hope so. I am on the fence about Vertcoin but some of the promoters are claiming "this hasn't been done before." No mention of the fact that they have links to Yacminer for the gpu mining and that the only difference is they chose a lower memory requirement to allow it to be more GPU friendly. This is turning me off to Vertcoin because credit should be given where it is due and that is clearly being avoided. But if there was more acknowledgment of the fact that they just tweaked Yacoin a bit then the price would be .0005 at most, which is where Yacoin belongs right now.
Cryptsy has held my Yacoin in limbo for months now. What a disappointment this coin has been now that Vertcoin is surging forward. Can't help but feel like somebody got screwed here. Seems like all the coins older than two months better rebrand themselves if they want to survive. Trying to wrap my head around the enormous disparity between the two coins and the massive amounts of posts in the forums. Seems to be a trend. Coins that have been around for 6 months to a year have about a tenth of the posts as coins from the last two months.
It's called "pump and dump". Check back in 2 years. I'm pretty certain YACoin will still be around. I'm pretty certain many of the others will not.

Wonder when cryptsy will start it up.
Any other exchanges? no bter

I got a Valentine date with Yacoin
I've verified two of the major pools are on the new version (yac.coinmine.pl & yac.ltcoin.net), however I'm not getting any answer from the admin of yac.m-s-t.org. I'm going to advise anyone mining there to be prepared to switch to a different pool. It's too bad, this pool has been really solid so far, but absenteeism in the admin is never a good thing.
Looks like most people have are on yac.coinmine.pl & yacltcoin.net. At the time of posting this the network speed to 1200 khash/sec and only about 48 khash/sec are still at yac.m-s-t.org. Looks like we'll be okay. Hopefully the admins get back to us.
It looks like smallcoin.org still has a pool up and running as well. They're contributing 72 khash/sec - anyone know if they are on the right version?

I can't start wallet 0.4.2 on win 8.1 x64!!
Help and advice needed!
Thanks!

Thanks!
Error messages and other info would be helpful. Is this a new install, or are you upgrading? If upgrading from something other than 0.4.1, you'll need to backup everything to another folder, delete everything except for wallet and re-download the blockchain.
On the other PC, were you running version 0.4.1?
No. 0.4.2 and win 7. On this pc 3 other coin wallets working ok, but, Yac doesn't want to?!?
Update: It worked after few resets and deleting everything from the Roaming/YACoin folder.
Good to hear. I have a new win 7 partition that I am going to use for windows builds in the future, so hopefully that will help with stability on win 7 and 8?
I'm not mining PoW currently but I used to run it with concurrency values that were several multiples of the recommended for my GPU on regular scrypt, and hight lookup gap to match.
LINUX HELP:
Is anyone using ThirtyBird's YACMiner on Linux? There seems to be an issue with high thread-concurrency values. I am getting CLKernal errors for tc values which work fine on Windows 8.1, and the error occured when I tried a few different GPUs. I made sure I had inputted the following in /etc/profile:
export GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT=100
export GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS=1
Any thoughts would be very appreciated. I am thinking this problem could be a yacoin specific one as opposed to cgminer with scrypt coins. Or... I overlooked something simple.
[EDIT]
BTW Many, many thanks to ThrityBird. yacminer 3.4.0 is fantastic. The raw intensity adjustment is a HUGE benefit. I'm sending some YAC his way once Cryptsy gets back on the YAC train.
[EDIT - SOLVED]
Basically, just combine the information from these two sites:
http://devgurus.amd.com/thread/158397
https://litecoin.info/Debian_Linux_cryptocoin_mining_rig_setup_guide
So type this code in the Linux terminal:
nano /etc/profile
#Add the following to the bottom of the file:
export DISPLAY=:0
export GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT=100
export GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS=1
export GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE=100

Explorer is back up! https://explorer.yacoin.org
I think there were a lot at the start, when difficulty was low, but I may be mistaken.
Yes, but I don't seem to have those in my DB. The first orphan is at height 66448 with date "Sun May 19 21:20:41 CEST 2013" - so it's 11 days after the start.Speaking of your database... any word on when it will be back online? Is there anything you need help with?
With it being offline for so long, I was thinking about trying to adapt Abe or a blockparser program I found to work with YAC, and thought you might share some wisdom on what pitfalls I will run into? Your server is the only block explorer for YAC that I know of, and that single point of failure scares me even though it's not critical to how things run, it makes it a little (a lot) more human readable.
sairon has fixed it and I just need to update DNS. explorer.yacoin.org will be back up in about 5 hours.
OK, DNS has been updated. It will take a bit for the internets to register though.
