Were it slowing down, it would be going at half the speed now that it was at ~37 difficulty.

It isn't.

So you cannot perceive the block generation slowing down but it actually is slowing down.

If you cannot perceive it, how do you know that it's happening?

And considering 95% of blocks on coinotron are invalid and 67.5% on mine-for are stale we're looking at what, 1000x as many people joining SC the very first minute it's out of the gate compared to tenebrix and 4000x as many for fairbrix?  So the first two hours we've got somewhere around 30,000 cpus boiling along on solidcoin?

I'm having a pretty hard time believing it myself.  Forked chain is a much simpler and easier to believe explanation.

Up to block 7739.  Looks like blocks per second is still accelerating.



Seems like you are the new BitcoinExpress. Welcome back. We missed you Tongue NOT.

It only seems like block generation is increasing BUT it actually is constant ( but in theory it is going down because diff is going up ) because of such a small diff. So you cannot perceive the block generation slowing down but it actually is slowing down.

Seems like some people are just ban-happy.

"I disagree with you so you should be banned.  Unless you fill gullible new investors/suckers with anything other than dreams of unicorns that shit skittles you are banned."

So sad really.  I mean does the Federal Reserve feel the need to ban anyone who talks (even falsely) about the dollar?  If you need to ban someone you disagree with then you have already lost.  Period.

Seriously though the network has produced one block every 2 seconds.  Is it suppose to do that?

400 Amazon Instances costs = $32 per hour.  Should $32 per hour investment be able to push block generation speed that high?
Shouldn't difficulty be slowing the rate of block generation?  Why after difficulty rising to 68 is block generation still this fast?

I mean @ difficulty 68 to sustain 2 blocks per second would require 68x the computational power.  Are we to believe that the network grew 6800% from block 1 till now.  Wouldn't that be like 20,000 CPU?

how is it quite clear, are you suggesting that coinhunter designed 2-3 blocks per sec? serious question hope you dont ban me for it.

Looks like you don't have a clue how diff and max-diff-inc-limits work...

I work with EC2 myself, and know how much it can cost. They charge based upon CPU cycles. Just a quick question, how much will the 400 EC2 server instances cost, and who is going to be footing the bill?

His employer...

No cost, no loss besides I'm leaving soon anyway.
Bullshit. I've had enough of you. It's quite clear that not only do you not have those servers, you also don't know what you're talking about. The only reason that I believed you in the Namecoin incident was because you said you optimized Artforz attack code. I knew of an optimization, so I assumed that it was the same one you thought of. It's quite clear that you were just saying that, though, and aren't a real developer.

Don't try coming back here again.

You along with so many others deserve to be banned from this forum. People like you are the direct cause to the overall price decline IMHO. People come to an "investment" forum, see the likes of you, and RUN.

You moron.

Though TBX may have been a smaller release, it took ~4hrs to reach block 500. That's just my personal experience with brand-new CPU blockchains.

Too bad you banned BCX. He will return and I will again have fun seeing his skewed characters and puppets spewing BS about anything random. We had fun. See you sometime soon, mr. maddox.

i think bcx is manipulating the block chain by progressively increasing hash rate over the network in increments, and is now mining the majority of the blocks... Maybe it has something to do with circumventing ch's magical new 51% protection algorithm.

It could be worse.  mine-for.us is reporting 67.5% stales.  Holy crap.  I don't think a single pool is stable.  I don't know WHAT the problem is, but something is certainly up.

Looks like 2 hours into the thing we're all late adopters. =)

So simple question.  The network has generated roughly 1 block per second since inception.

Is it suppose to do that?

Sidenote, still 68 diff, now 7285 blocks.

I'm stuck on block 6826.

I'm downloading the block chain now, it's at 4000 and counting, difficulty of 21. Is the target rate still 3.5 minutes per block? If so, shouldn't the chain be somewhere around 100 blocks long right now?

Just passed 5000. 5000 / 328 minutes since launch (10th October 23:35 UTC) =~ 15 blocks/minute.

As of this post, 7225 blocks and difficulty 68.


Looking at the post timestamps ,that's a difference of 2225 blocks in 5 minutes.

Edit: Ahh, thanks bobnova.  I knew I was missing something Wink

Looking at coinotron it looks like they're getting 95% invalid blocks.  Something is def. up.

BitcoinEXpress will go out as the winner!

At this moment I have right at 2000 blocks and if CH manages to pull this off and keep this going, BCX will have the largest amount of Solidcoin next to Coinhunter's 1 million pre-mined coins.

Either way it works for me.
HA! Always trying to leave that last bit of doubt. I knew you were bullshiting with Namecoin, and I know that you're bullshitting now. If you could have done anything, you would have already done it. SC2's launch was a perfect opportunity to take it out and make them look bad. You missed it.

May I ask how you are convinced that he's bullshitting?
