Please keep the tradition of solo-mining BBR  Wink

At this point in time (based on BTC pricing), is it more profitable to mine BBR or to mine XMR?
Unless I've worked it out incorrectly, its better to mine XMR and use that to purchase BBR.

Unless I'm doing something weird or incorrect: (Dell Server with 24 cpus .. Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 0 @ 2.30GHz with 15360 KB Cache)

BBR / wildkeccak miner: 804925.84 h/s (24 miner threads started, using 'wildkeccak' algorithm)
XMR / cryptonote miner: 554.39 H/s (Wolf's miner: 14 miner threads started, using 'cryptonight' algorithm)


When does it become profitable to switch to actually mining BBR? (that is my preference in the end)

Obviously, everyone should work the #s out for themselves, but I believe you're correct.

The gap between the CPU efficiency and GPU efficiency is higher for BBR than it is for XMR.  A GPU is 2x better than a CPU for XMR, but it's probably 4x better for BBR.  As a result, *in general* (except for price and diff swings), you're better off mining XMR on your CPU.  It also probably means you're better off mining BBR on your GPUs, but that depends a lot on the efficiency of the particular mining software on your particular card.

For me, I mine XMR on my CPUs (i7-4770 and similar) while mining BBR on the GPUs (mostly nvidia).

That's some useful information, thank you!
Time to put my GPU's to work on BBR.

Hello, I created homebrew formula for Boolberry https://github.com/sammy007/homebrew-cryptonight

Usage:

Tap repo: brew tap sammy007/cryptonight

Compile: brew install --HEAD boolberry

If you don't want GUI and love old-school console.

could you help me to understand how to make it work with tor?

I do not know but i may see what you are aiming at. TOR does in this context give cheap (free?) alternative to VPN, to provide user with privacy with respect to his ISP, public WiFi and insecure local networks. When/if you do manage to make it work please write tutorial on it for users that for financial reason cannot use VPN as much as they should

as i know in bitcoin-qt, if we use tor, we can config a proxy in setting, but how to config tor in boolberry, do our support it? if yes, how to set? if no, is there any plan for this? thx.

what files do i need to copy to copy over the blockchain to the new updated client?

Just blockchain.bin in the %appdata%/roaming/boolb folder

Is there blockchain bootstrap for osx? I'll die before sync complete Sad

It synced pretty quickly for me. Faster than some other CN based coins I'd tried before.

uploaded the OSX blockchain.bin here though anyway, should be up to about height 80950

https://mega.co.nz/#!T80CVCpI!ZRJS5fXTURD5wjofDdsC3_H3OBEmUgbox-CJBMzBeLk
sha1: 4e087c43cb4def2d9deab152922cb57eccf56dcf

managed to compile the CPU miner on osx too, the instruction on the github didn't seem to work,  don't really know if this is the correct way to do it, not a programmer myself and never had to compile anything before on osx but it all seemed to work fine

in cpu_miner.c find MAP_ANONYMOUS => change to MAP_ANON, comment out the mmap refs to MAP_HUGEPAGES and MAP_POPULATE too. wrap the declaration of fls (in bitops.h) with #if 's otherwise you'll get fatal error during compilation


Code:
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)
brew install autoconf automake pkg-config libtool jansson yasm libusb curl
export LIBCURL_CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/opt/curl/include
export LIBCURL_LIBS=-L/usr/local/opt/curl/lib
brew link curl --force
./autogen.sh
./nomacro.pl
./configure CFLAGS="-O3 -march=native"
make

if you want to run on other machines, copy or symlink libbjansson4.dylib from the brew cellar to usr/local/lib

Looking at the cncoin.farm pool...

It reports that their hash is currently 3.79GH (almost 50%).

I also notice that they say they have 186 miners connected.

These numbers would suggest that each miner has an average of about 20MH?? Which is like 20 280x's?? That can't be right... or am I missing something??

I have 86 video card (AMD / NVidia), total capacity 58Mh that confuses you not understand?)


you probably have a few more cards then the average miner!

Why everytime btcd goes up, bbr goes up? and when btcd goes down, bbr goes down?

VRC pump.
You realize that any coin that pumps their coin on the basis of getting into the SuperNet is automatically excluded from the SuperNet. Good job, this means VRC will never be in the SuperNet!!!
Actually, I created the deal with James directly so there is no pump other than people thinking that the deal will finish.  IMO it's worth checking out.  Thnx.

This is confirmed...VRC is working on a deal:

I have the similar feeling. The difficulty of BBR is too high. They are not profitable for GPU.

I'm on drugs, what's your excuse?
I'm having problems downloading scratchpad at bbrfarm...is there any where I can just download then place in the correct folder? ....... I suspect its got to do with extra interest over the last week attracting more miners

Jon

Edit: Or maybe just my crap satellite

Edit; finally managed to get miners back online a lot of hassle connecting with stratum server, maybe needs longer time out option or something

Jon

I'm seeing an error page visiting bbr.farm right now.

You might give it a try on http://cncoin.farm/ if it's near enough to you, and make sure you configure your miner to use their new cdn-hosted copy of the scratchpad.

(cncoin.farm is US-east, bbr.farm is in Singapore, so your performance will be very different based upon where in the world your miners are.)

I come from a land down under   Where woman fart and men chunder ....Australia so Singapore sounds better...........thanks for the response

Alright, BBR dudes....just wanted to say 'Hi' and check out the whole BBR/Monero/SuperNET story.

I almost can't believe that some people manage to start fights over a project that should lead to UNITY, but I guess I need to lower my expectations of people.

Nice to see so many NXT'ers round here , btw, so a big 'hello' to y'all.

And yeah, I'm buying into BBR right now........

 


EvilDave -

this week I am going to start organizing a BBR marketing committee/group with a PR gameplan. I know you are busy with Nxt PR but I'd love to see if there are some ways we could cross promote BBR and NXT.

I do think with Teleport+CryptoNote we have the opp to have the strongest anon coin in the world. It would benefit everyone if we work together. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks
