so... can't mine this on Linux ?


Sorry you can only run the wallet on linux and cant mine.

We had a paid dev up til this week that almost has it finished; but there is a major cpu mining piece missing and our dev quit.

We'll probably have a new dev within 5 months; if not Ill finish the linux side myself possibly before the SQL ledger.

Thanks,
Grid
PS Try running windows in a virtual machine.


 PS II: It did mine when we first released but since then with the new security additions, linux side lost mining compatibility.

You have to run the wallet as Administrator in order to upgrade trough the upgrade function.

Thanks that did it for me.

The only reason most of these other alts are more popular is because people just want to mine as early as possible and dump and cash out. It is all about who gets in earliest. These people do no care about the coin or its future, it is just a pump and dump. In Gridcoin everyone has a chance to mine and there are no large pools that raise the difficulty for everyone and just kill everything.

If you wan to raise awareness about Gridcoin post on other forums. that is the best way to spread awareness and this coin and let people see it for what it really is.

why isn't GRC more popular that Earthcoin>?

Ok, its ashame GRC isn't on the exchange yet though. Lets hope they follow through with it. Can you give me any links on this info?

just check with Rob, I remembered he posted either here or gridcoin forum. let us hope the best for GRC.

Anyway, I believe GRC and any coins similar to GRC who have a actual value and benefit the human and our daily lives in the year 2014. It should be the trend of cryptocurrencies' future.

Ok, i'm sure he reads this forum thread so we'll see if i get an answer.

can i mine this on linux with cgminer+boinc yet ?
this seems better than any scam-dump-coin i saw lately
i like the ripple idea and computingforgood (i run it since i'v found out about it)
but gridcoin is decentralized

Someone needs to make a video tutorial on how to mine gridcoins. I think their is a lot of confusion as their is no mining pools.

I would do it, don't have a mic though and i think other people have more knowledge about how it works than me.

I did a giveaway for a good few weeks with coins I mined haha, so it's not that there was no giveaway. I decided to stop it because it wasn't getting the reaction I'd hoped for. Now I'm saving some of the coins I mine for a later date once we've gotten everything squared away with all the BOINC-related projects (BOINC mining, scrypt-sleep, etc).

Cool - all the best. Do you have a facebook. I am very interested in Gridcoin.

why sometimes the client lost its syncronize?

this happens even with the lastest version (i downloaded the 7.5 .msi istaller...)

obviously i run the client as administrator...
Verify it is synced completely once and registered version > 50 in Help | About, then if it falls out, wait at least an hour to recover-- it auto recovers now.

Grid


thx for the reply.

when i'll get home this evening i will check the version.

Anyways, when it lost the sync, if i wait a while, it'll recove the sync. The problem is that in that time if i find a block i lose it...and that's happen yesterday.

I apologize for my english...if something is not clear let me know.
