Current estimates put the total network at about 1256 TB.
Where you find it?

It can be calculated from the difficulty for the most recent block. To get the difficulty, first get the "baseTarget", which you can see in the output of the mining window. Or, you can go to http://burst.cryptoport.io/, and get the details on the most recent block. The equation for difficulty is:

Code:
difficulty = 2^64 / baseTarget

(This is different than the Difficulty reported in the BURST web client, which is actually reporting the Cumulative Difficulty of all blocks)

Then, to calculate an estimated total size of miner's plots. The equation is:

Code:
Total plot size (TB) = difficulty / 4 / 240 / 1024 / 1024

Based on the current baseTarget of 12795815, the estimated total plot size is 1432 TB.

When calculating the total plot size, it might be better to take the average baseTarget over the past 10 or so blocks in order to get less variance in your calculations.

Thanks to uray, in this post for clarifying these equations (you can also see where these equations come from in that post).

Also have a question: Burst mining depends on total space or only on free space on hard drive?

Depends on the total size of the plotfiles per address (if you take into account that you will be plotting all your free space).
So the hard drive is physicaly philled with plot-files and it depends on how much space the occure?

To clarify, each system is a Solaris server with 120 4 TB NL-SAS disks attached to it via SAS, each is presented as an individual disk and then a root ZFS pool is constructed out of the entire thing leaving 420 TB of usable space per system.
Realistically, how much could it mine?


Shouldn't be too much to getting it working on Solaris since it is UNIX based. But there's probably a little recoding needed from the Linux code to make it work on Solaris. You can try the Linux tutorial and see if it would right out of the box.
I guess I should rephrase. I am confident in my ability to get it running on Solaris (I could always run it inside a zone anyways).  A better question is approx how many BURST/day (or approx BTC/day) would 120 4-TB NL-SAS disks net me? I could bring it up on up to four of these servers for at least a week or two.

No insult intended on making it work on Solaris, if you though that I was, my apologies.

It would take a long while to plot all those drives, that is dependent on your hardware setup, ie. cpus, ram, data transfer rates, bus bandwidth, etc. BURST/day estimation will change everyday as more people are getting up there hdd arrays online. But as stated earlier, you would have 25% of 36 mil/day, approx 9mil. Depending if you plan to solo or pool mine, that would also affect your daily output.
You're off a digit. He'd be getting 900k out of 3.6m each day.

Error: {"errorCode":5,"errorDescription":"Unknown account"}
Receiving this error every time i try to go set up mining credentials.
Wallet is: 5941785374254514347

You need to have a coin to pay the fee. Just sent you 10. When they show up in your balance try again.
Many thanks, also, maybe someone is informed of such an error?(trying to start run_generate on 1TB hard drive):

Hi. I write about pool http://burst-pool.cryptoport.io/ admin wrote that repaired payments.
I think he is steal our money.

User with account     BURST-Y3LJ-428E-SZG5-HN5W3 now attached to this pool. He found 2 blocks: 7929,7947.

But pool not write about it. Now balance of the pool- is 30'452 Bursts. If admin not paid 20000 bursts for miners, i I won't begin to come more

I highly doubt that dcct would steal anything from anyone. Maybe PM him and ask if there is an issue.

+1

Thats not my pool. I just wrote the C miner / merge tool.
Plotter maybe?) or you wrote miner too?

Can anyone help me mine on pool from ubuntu ? i cannot manage to start the mine.bat on linux .... i think it must be .sh ... if i rename the .bat into .sh it will be ok ?

If its just for a week or two it will all depend on your CPU power. You have to complete the plots before you can do any mining. As a comparison - a modern i7 fills ~1TB/day.

Current estimates put the total network at about 1256 TB. If you were to add 420 TB right now, you'd have about 25% of the network's mining capacity. So you'd earn about 25% of the 3.6 million newly generated coins per day, which would be 900k BURST per day.

Of course, difficulty is also on the rise. I estimate that it's doubling every 4-8 days, so this 900k BURST per day should halve every 4-8 days.

Network total storage is currently estimated at about 1.4PB, so that would be a massive portion of total new coins.

i get that when i change the stagger size
Your problem is your java version. Using high stagger sizes requires 64 bit java. Install that, and use the java file in C:\Program Files\Java\...

what im suppose to do with this ?


It should be:

Code:
pocminer.POCMiner generate 3989028246376916378 0 120000 500 5

You have:

Code:
pocminer.POCMiner generate *3989028246376916378#* 0 120000 500 5

Loose the *'s and # around your account number.

yes thank you, it doing something now Cheesy whitch numbers i should pick for
- 30 gb
- 250 gb
- 500 gb?

I never really understood that myself.  I use free space / 256kb.  Google "30gb/256kb", "250gb/256kb" and "500gb/256kb" and it will get you very close.

Alright, I'll just google them for you. Smiley

30gb = 117187
250gb = 976562
500gb = 1953125

That's assuming you actually have that space available after formatting.  Remember, a 500gb drive won't have 500gb available.  Once formatted they all loose capacity due to 1 byte = 8 bits.

yes i know, thank you
so what next ? i create plots and how can i start mine in pool than ?
