Is the entire blockchain stored in RAM? Bytecoind takes up 80% of my 4 GB of RAM and 2 GB of swap space.  Bitmonerod takes up a small fraction of that..

Yes it is. These coins will need to implement a blockchain database eventually. For now more swap space may work, since most of the block chain is never touched.


It makes Unity lag, takes 15 minutes to sync 1000 blocks, and takes many hours to save the blockchain. Not an ideal situation.

Oh right, I forgot about saving. You will need more RAM or waiting for a block database to be implemented to get any improvement.

Run the daemon with lower IO priority and it will smooth things up, eliminate IO race and cut off your blockchain read/write time significantly
Code:
ionice -c 2 -n 7 bytecoind
Thanks! It speeds things up, can now run Firefox at the same time.

I believe the real devs are keeping an eye on us .  Shocked
Huh




He just gave us a solution for those huge ram usage and he is a newbie registered in 2013 but the first post is suggestion of cryptonote which is almost a mystery for more than half of the people here .

Darkcoin win the battle

And still no exchange for BCN  Embarrassed



What battle are you talking about?

We've already have 2 exchange on the forum. Djinou94  and BreakingBAD, here is the links to the exchanges:
1) led by abit2slo -  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bcn-bytecoinbtc-google-spreadsheet-exchange-531925
2) led by smooth - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bcn-bytecoin-trading-thread-and-otc-xchg-bid-112-ask-125-last-8-579781





That's not an exchange for me
I mean Bittrex, Poloniex or another one but a true website not a free market


You don't trust hand-to-hand trade? Smiley

We cannot be add to coinmarket if we don't have a true exchange
and hand to hand is scam its always more expensive than the reality

There is no scamming on my thread that I know of. If there is, tell me about it and I'll remove those orders.

If you think the prices there are too expensive then you should post lower orders.

Can't it be the whole deep community?

No because that is much too large a group for the secret not to leak out in some way. The ability to keep a secret degrades rapidly as the number of people knowing it goes up. Since the existence of this technology was not even so much as rumored, it must be the case that the number of people knowing about it was quite small.

I bet that there are significant amount of 1k+ ppl organizations which you never heard of.

I agree with you in some way: cicada etc., but imagining some master mind behind the CN is somewhat close to a dream.

The supposition was a widespread use in the deep web. I reject that as implausible for the collection of reasons already stated by me and others. I never claimed a "mastermind" it could easily be a small team.

Is it possible that one person or group fake the whole BCN blockchain to make
it look like BCN has been mined by many computers for almost 2 years? Huh

Not that many computers. Could be done in a relatively short time with a server farm or botnet.

Even now this coin is pretty small and the difficulty is much higher

I think it is more likely that the developer or a small team bumbled along for two years and then later decide to try to cash out the premine with a pump-and-dump instead of starting a new coin. That may be behind the split between bytecoin and cryptonote. All of this is speculation, but I'm trying to fit the facts as well as possible.

I doubt it's possible, at least I can't come up with a way.

Who will do such thing anyway ?

One possibility is the developer premined BCN and made it look like it was not premined.

i guess none being "clean and sober" would do such a stupid thing. what for?

Which is the exact opposite of what one would traditionally want.

Cui bono bro?

Little correction have been made.



Will improve in next day or so

Hm, reduced-size logo looks great! Roll Eyes
