does somebody have an answer to why 50%+ of the mined coins I get are rejected?

I have decided to allocate 10% of InstantDEX operating budget to privacyServer nodes, they will also get nodecoins for their troubles. Not sure how much value nodecoins will have, it is an asset on NXT AE, but it will at least be something that privacyServer operators will get daily as there will be ~100,000 nodecoins per day allocated to privacyServer nodes based on how many other privacyServers are connecting to it. So the more active your privacyServer is in terms of transactions, the more nodecoins you will earn.

Another 10% will go to the asset issuer(s) involved in the InstantDEX trade, so people running their own uMGW server will get some revenue sharing for hosting server. Both uMGW and privacyServer can reside on same server.

Another 10% to MGW asset holders.

And also another 10% to BTCD stakers. I think the best formula is to assign one share to each block staked and then everybody splits that day's revenue share according to the number of shares.

JLH is the first cryptoasset to trade on crypto exchange like a coin
BTCD will be the first crypto coin to get dividends like a crypto asset!
This makes BTCD the ONLY currency to directly benefit from InstantDEX trades, even if the trade doesnt even involve BTCD.

Press Release is being made on this and hope to get it to press next week. So this is sort of "insider" info Smiley

James

P.S. I still have 30% unallocated so maybe some of the above numbers change? Not sure.

most of the coins generated by my wallet are not accepted (I guess that's what's called orphan blocks?), why is that, will this get improved?

Maybe you have high latency due to bad connection that gives you disadvantage while synchronisation!?!?

On my side I have about 5% rejection ratio and I think this is quite normal. Also mostly I get 0.0X to 0.00X BTCD income from stacking  Sad Is this normal?



wow ok only 5% rejection this is a big difference to what I get. My internet connection is not too fast (12MBit/s) and I was thinking of switching to a faster one, do you really think it's the reason or could it be something else? cuz in that case I would really switch my connection, me want to have more BTCD Grin Grin

edit: I also get 0.0x BTCD with about 2000BTCD in the wallet.

I think relevant is not throughput, but latency (ping). Maybe someone else has an idea concerning the rejection ratio what could be crux of the matter...

However, with 2k BTCD and currently about  ~5% interest / year you'd ideally get about ~0.27 BTCD per day  Undecided.

thanks for the info! I guess I would get 0.27 BTCD per day if all the mined coins were accepted (I meant 0.0x for each successful mining). I tested my connection now and I get a ping time of 46ms, is that too slow? If somebody can be sure this is the reason for the low success rate then I would really get a faster connection even if it's more expensive.
(cuz BTCD worth it Grin)

edit: retested ping, it takes even 60ms sometimes..


I think your ping is quite normal. But I would let the experts (devs?) judge here, but I see nothing really abnormal concerning ping. Also Im new to the PoS used here, so I cannot really help.



BTW I got us to the listing here (theres not much I can do, but I try what I can  Grin): https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/poll-what-anonymous-coin-will-succed-568166

BTW2: Why the hell is everybody selling? I am HODLing Kiss

This market is way to easy to manipulate.  I wanted to buy more this morning and I didn't like the price at 150k, I placed a sell order at 160k and moved it down a bit, my orders at 140k were filled within an hour  Wink

Wow, wow, wow is all I can say!  I've just read through the first 94 pages of this thread and felt it necessary to say hello to the community. So...... what up btcd community!  From jump, this thread has been quite fun, interesting and exciting to read.  And JL777, you are the freakin man!

I've felt really golden about other coins before, but there was always a deep rooted, subconscious feeling of fear involved in such crypto investments...... and I don't get any of those weird feelings from what I've read thus far.  There's not even much FUD or hate going on here either. I'm sure that will come as this coin becomes more popular, but it all feels so pure at the moment.  Kudos to the devs, miners and community members for that.  This is going to be big, it seems, and I feel fortunate to have been able to get in during this pullback  Grin

Just wanted to make myself known so I can begin to establish a positive rep here, as I would really like to help in any way possible.  And this thread is great for learning as well, which is what it's all about anyway.  It's been a joy getting to know folks through their posts and I can't wait to get through the rest of the thread.  

Outstanding job to everyone!!!

Peace
Welcome to the transformation of crypto!
I knew there is a good thing about lower prices, it brings in new people who are longer term thinkers than day traders
That is what we need, more peoples to help build all the parts I dont do

James

Lower prices and the level of quality here have def brought me on board.  All the way on board!  I know I'm unknown here, at the moment, but being that this is a community driven crypto coin, I'd like to advertise my OCD-like organizational skills.  My life outside of crypto keeps me busy, but I'd love to lend a hand wherever possible, once I get my thread cred established.

Peace

Does anybody know how often you can query each exchanges API without getting blacklisted?

for the following exchanges
#define BITTREX_FEEDID 0xfeed0001L
#define CRYPTSY_FEEDID 0xfeed0002L
#define POLONIEX_FEEDID 0xfeed0003L
#define MINTPAL_FEEDID 0xfeed0004L
#define BTER_FEEDID 0xfeed0005L

dont want to blast out too many queries, but also dont want it to be updating once per minute either

I got some HTML help and now have graphic updating every second, which is plenty fast. Just a test loop, no actual data yet, that's for this weekend

James

Not sure about each exchange, but I did recently find out that MintPal is 10 queries a second.
10 queries a second, ok that's plenty, I will set it at 5 seconds, should give good dataset

100 BTCD per day / ~1400 blocks per day -> ave .07 BTC per staked block

Amazing! Just finished reading the thread from page 1 to the present; I'm blown away with the knowledge and communication from the dev team!  It took me about a day and a half to read through.  Fortunately, me reading the thread coincided with the dip.  As I was reading, I'd get more excited and set new orders. Was able to ride it down and picked up at 1118 and now have been following it back up and still have active orders. This has been a really fun 36 hours! Best thing...... it's only the beginning.

How this thread has escaped any FUD is beyond me.  Truly unbelievable.  Love where this is headed! Grin

I usually just make a local redis key of the exchange rate lookups, and then refresh those keys rom each exchange every minute.
You could to every 10-15 seconds if you wanted for all of them except poloniex, they have a hardware load balancer that starts dropping after X many connections per interval.  I'm not sure the exact number, though, nor do I think they publish it...
