Thanks. Should I avoid having my newly-acquired Bottlecaps on this wallet (I have a backup) and instead send them back to cryptsy?

After that I have kept my wallet closed waiting for the new release.

You can't withdrawl your CAPs from Multipool for the last few weeks so not the best mining option...
Works now .. for now. I certainly like the PPLNS system better than than PPS on hasher.ca.Can't speak for cryptopools.com as a few of the coins I've tried there won't mine (FST, etc).
47MH on CAP now and 667 blocks found so we know that is working. I will check out FST. Thanks for reporting the issue.

Flound, please update the pool list in the OP. Thanks.

Like alibabacool said just keep calm and wait with your Caps for high prices...
June 01, 2014, 04:58:32 AM
I just wanted to say here how stupid I was. I gathered almost 2BTC worth of CAPS when hitting from 4000sat to 1900 sat. But I panicked and sold all my caps for loss. If I hold them, I would have had 4-5btc profit. No I bought some back at 4500sat 5000sat and 5500 sat. I am trying to do day trading cryptsy to make some BTC and all my profit goes to CAPS. But I am not sure, If I will ever make almost 1.5btc I lost.
Don't worry! In cryptocurrencies world you can't win and be in plus every time. So keep calm.

Tranz,
I take issue with a section of code for the negative target patch. Specifically, it is this one:
Code:
if (nActualSpacing < 0)
nActualSpacing = nTargetSpacing;
The difficulty should still increase if the time between blocks is less than zero, but this line of code makes it so that the difficulty remains static. If this issue is going to be fixed, I feel the more desirable option is below:
Code:
if (nActualSpacing < 0)
nActualSpacing = 0;
I'm not a fan of the way Peercoin forks adjust difficulty because of attack vectors, and hopefully some hashrate and staking will increase the security of this chain. That is a discussion for another topic at another time, however.
Please share your thoughts on my small suggestion
Hi Math. Good suggestion and thanks for it. My thoughts on it are such that if you set the spacing to zero, and allow the difficulty to move up, as you suggested, you also allow the peer to rapidly increase the difficulty, which could result in a slow or even stuck block chain.
I will keep this in mind, as I am still adjusting the hard fork. My uses of GetAdjustedTime will not work, so I am changing some functions to fit.
Thanks for the feedback!

We were planning on an upgrade release before hardfork, correct?
Flound, yes. I have at least 1 more commit to do. I am going to send you a PM here shortly.

When you lose interest in a program, your last duty to it is to hand it off to a competent successor.
Tranzz, how can I compile from source by cloning (not by wgetting the tar.gz)? There is no .git file? I'd like to just use pull to get the latest version.
Thank you.
Flound has access to OP.
git clone git://github.com/Tranz5/bottlecaps

David with the latest beta release 1.999 you should not need any addnodes at all. Try it out and see if it works. It does for me.
Thanks.I tried to compile, with no luck
Code:
cd ~ && git clone git://github.com/bottlecaps-foundation/bottlecaps.git && qmake-qt4 bottlecaps-qt.pro && make && ln -s ~/bottlecaps/BottleCaps-qt ~/Desktop/CAP
It stops at qmake-qt4 step (I tried with qt5 too - I am on Arch Linux, if that helps)
Any idea?
