This is my favorite coin, I will join in with 1-2MHs. Smiley Just so I don't understand: I have to mine on the "old" client until the fork, then update and mine on new one, right? Or can I just start mining on the new one straight away?

Update to the latest client now, I'd recommend joining a pool for mining rather than solo at this diff though.

Yes, lets hard fork this thing earlier.  

15 or 20 or 25 blocks?


Give people a chance to update the client, but close enough to opile on and get there quickly.

I pointed 350 kh/s at Japool 6 hours ago and I found two blocks, 1 orphan and 1 legit!

I will add .1 BTC or 6Mh, whichever helps in the end.  I totally support where your conversation has gone; hardfork in a couple blocks seems reasonable, and I'll be around to mine as soon as the change is ready. Thanks guys for working on this and keeping us posted.

Anyone down for the Hash Buy.

Do we have any big holders with btc to pay the cost?  I will throw in .25 btc, but we have to come up with .75 more to get the 75 mh/s for a day.  That plus a of us get us there in a day


I see more sense in just updating the hard fork to occur sooner. Change to 10 blocks, let cryptsy know by twitter, email and pming their mods on here surely it would be updated before any huge hashrate increase. Even if we got to the new re-target before crypsty, their old wallet would error out on any transfers and their system would take it offline automatically for investigation no? Post a big message on main post not to transfer coins until cryptsy has updated. There's no issue with pool operators updating in a timely manner just the busy exchanges, and no solo miners will be effected because there's only like two of us on the network lol and I'm pretty sure miners would be keeping a close eye on this thread...

edit: if this is done, perhaps update the checkpoints as well, they're a bit behind.
Yep, I think we should go this way.
Btw it would be better to notify cryptsy even before we update the code so they keep an eye on it and update in time.
What I did with CNC was hard-forking the next block, because the network had no hashrate and was really stuck. That's what's happening here with GLC.
I think 1-2 blocks window will be enough.

Hi I was mining on http://globalcoin.miners-pool.eu/ but stopped a few days ago because I still have no Unconfirms.

Is there something wrong with that server ?
Well the pool hasn't had a block for 5 days already. Unconfirmed rewards are shown only after pool finds a block.

After I posted I read back a few pages and see the issue that's happening with the finding of the next block..

Thanks for the reply.

As someone stated its mining for free... I think I'll mine else where.. Mite be a dead duck for now..

Well, we can move the hard-fork block closer if we really need to.
Or any holders with mining equipment start to mine GLC to shild their investment.
After the fork goes into effect, there will be enough coins to mine at low diff to recoup costs or even profit.

Shacky wants 1 BTC for 24 hours of work.  Very expensive.  Anyone have better idea?

Currently the changes are being implemented and checked on testnet. Globalcoin will be adopting a difficulty retarget every block using an algorithm insipired by Peercoin. Big thanks to the developer RoadTrain who was behind the CHNCoin difficulty adjustment patch and now working on Globalcoin.

You can see the latest public work to the hard fork on github. There's more work that hasn't been published to github yet as well Wink

Main Source:
https://github.com/CryptoParts/GlobalCoin

Fork with difficulty adjustment testnet:
https://github.com/RoadTrain/GlobalCoin

When the updates have been completed we'll get an update to the main source and developers will obviously post that here. Should be soon!

p.s In my opinion difficulty retarget every block is great, it's now used by many of the latest coins and on a good majority of the top coins. Some mentionable coins that retarget every block are: Peercoin, Primecoin, Megacoin, Novacoin, CHNCoin and Lottocoin.

http://globalcoin.miners-pool.eu is up to date, thanks!

It is just a day to get there.

If we get 10 miners to throw in .05 and there hash for a day, we can get this done in 24 hours.

This is still about a week off as we have to get everyone updated.

Yo,

Lets start a fund to pay the Hasher.

Found a dude named Shacky who has 75 mh/s.

He makes about $571 a day by mining LTC.  We will have to pay him a bit more than that for 24 hours.  I figure that we can get to 122 blocks in that period with his hash only.

I will throw .15 BTC at this and point my 3 Mh/s for that 24 hours.


Who else is willing to throw in?

Roadtrain is clearly the man.  

This might be the only way.  Good idea in my opinion.  I will add my 6Mh/s if we are going to rock this.  I just don't know how many other people will mine for nearly free.
