Ok, it seems my transaction get lost when it requires a fee to send to other nodes... any guess?

Once again i have a transaction that receives no confirm... i tried it 5 times. 4 times the transaction wasn't showed on the new wallet. the 5th time i can see the transaction arriving but it receives no confirm at all. it's been 5 hours since i did it. 0 confirm.
I've activated cpu mining on the new wallet and i'm not receiving nor sending any beacon.
Any hints?

Have you tried deleting everything in %\appdata\Gridcoin except for gridcoin.conf and wallet.dat, uninstalling Gridcoin and then doing a clean re-install from the windows MSI (http://gridcoin.us/download/gridcoin.msi)...?

i also started cpumining, after starting to mine with my cpu, it seems i am not getting any blocks from gpu mining. Coincidence? or is there something i am missing?

edit: took off cpumining and now its working fine again. Lesson Learned!


I run cpumining+gpumining and it works fine for me... Maybe you just had a streak of bad luck or perhaps your scrypt sleep % isn't very high...

Hi everyone!

I have an issue regarding CPU mining.
Since malaria control stopped working, the gridcoin client is still trying to send beacons for that project however if it fails(as it always does because the project is down) it does not try to send beacons to any other project that is added in the client and the credits are shown correctly..so the other projects even though they are working properly do not get recognized by gridcoin and don't pay anything.

Anybody else encoutered this problem?

Rob is it possible to do anything about it?

Thanks,
Regards,
Andrew.

I joined the ripple team, so now i am getting paid in gridcoin and xrp by just running the boinc client.

Awesome. Grin

Definitely including gridcoin in my documentary on cryptos.

Any info on the documentary? Thanks for including gridcoin.

Does this work with boinc ? (headless)
There is a "DLL registering step" in the Windows Explanations : http://www.gridcoin.us/download/GridCoinMiningInstructions.pdf

That guide is slightly outdated, you are no longer required to register the mining module.

I haven't found any blocks on my linux client so I'm not sure yet whether BOINC processing % is being applied since I am running Debian with no gnome, maybe Rob can tell me if there is a way to verify BOINC processing % without a GUI...?

I can confirm though that Gridcoin is compiled and accepting rpc connections.

hello, im quite new to grc..
i had some problems getting cgminer running, now its doin something, but im not sure if its really working.
it says about 270K diff, a few post ago somebody posted diff of 6.5450.. ?
im mining with 300 khash is there any chance of finding a block in some time?
since there is no pool with information etc. im not sure how many people are mining
my bionic activity is also stuck at 50%.. I've set all the settings in boinc manager to 100% allowed usage.. can i do something else?

is it necessary to configure the payout address somewhere in the cgminer settings? or how does that work

ty

Your cgminer output is correct. 270k is Scrypt (litecoin) difficulty which is equal to about 5 in SHA256D (bitcoin) difficulty.

300 K/Hash should get you at least a couple blocks a day.

BOINC activity will be stuck at 50% until you have a "Recent Average Credit" value for BOINC.

You do not need to configure your payout address in cgminer.



So, if I understand correctly, we're still unable to mine GRC on an headless linux rig  Huh
Have you an ETA about that ?

I have the headless daemon up, running and mine-able on Debian 7 using the instructions found here: https://github.com/gridcoin/Gridcoin-master/blob/master/CompilingGridcoinOnLinux.txt

6) Gridcoin will measure the processes individual thread utilization, memory footprint, authenticity and send that information back to same thread that rpcmining is running on.  It will not provide a higher subsidy unless all of the requirements are met, and the mining module is registered to the machines registry.  Boinc Points will be part of the base algorithm soon.
Is boinc point part of the algorithm already or do we have to wait for that too ?

By the way, GRC is a GREAT idea. Imagine a coin which yield profit and benefit the science at the same time. It would be wonderful Smiley
I can't wait to test it ! We're still lacking features but you job is VERY promising guys !
