New coins are not generated at all. Miner's salary is paid only with transaction fees. An account must be unlocked to mine. Timer in [Recent blocks] is just an assessement, it's changed each new block. A few coins will generate a block very rarely, so we need someone to implement pooled mining.

Wouldn't this require handing over the private key of the account to the pool?

EDIT: Or a transfer of funds to the pool

Transfer funds. Aye, u must trust the pool owner.

Very interesting this new coin Smiley

Does the software need to be running on local computer to generate POS?

you can also run it on a server, your acc needs to be unlocked in the client and the program needs to run, but you can close the browser

says i can generate next block in 1 day 5 hours?? this has been running for 2 days already?

do you have to keep your pc switched on or not?

how can i have the same amount of coins for 2 days, it is stuck at 70000 for 2 days something is not right with it,

In the my transactions what indicates the confirms??


this is not mining, how to tell if it is even doing anything?



The timer is changed after each new block.

Hover cursor over "10+" to get exact number of confirms.

Look at Recent blocks to see if it's mining.

says over 2000 confirms, and blocks are coming in ...block 2356 now.

So is it mining?  and also if i had 70000 2 days ago should i have mined something by now?

The pc did shut down for a while, does it not mine if the pc is closed?


i thought i was 24 hours after getting first coins you could mine but 2 days later it is saying have to wait another 2 days 12 hours before i can generate the next block?

The more Nxt you have, the more you are "allowed" to mine. so if you dont have much you can only generate a block every few days. for me it says 17k days or something, i guess no mining then Tongue

crazy idea so those that started with loads will just mine it all??? that is rather a mad concept.

A bit "strange" yes, but people seem to ignore that fact somehow...

Edit: ofc mining here is different, as you can only get transactions fees and not new coins.

thanks cfb, good to know. this means checkpoints has to built in. is a current high - 720
sufficient and do you have additional informations how these reorganizations are
invoked random, by time or by special needs?

Checkpoints are automatic. A node refuses to orphane more than 720 blocks.
Reorgs r invoked when a node sees a longer blockchain.

blockchain explorer update

thanks all for your reply and also for the donations.
today i will add the basisc statistics.
since all accounts are equivalent to a mining rigg it
i will add additional informations about individual and
total mining power (like a pool), viewable by different time scales.

Don't forget that network can reorganize blocks up to 720 ones back.

whishlist: a basic peers api would be usefull to add a failover or round
robin service to ensure data consistency.  currently i have to restart my node when freezing.
with a peer api i could just switch over to the next best node to continue fetching the raw block
data reducing the update latency.

nxt is not working for me, i have had the same number of coins for days?  the client is open and unlocked, how can i check if it is mining?

Open [Recent blocks], there should be a timer over the most recent one. The very 1st transaction in ur account must have 1440 confirmations before u allowed to mine.

I've sent you one Smiley EDIT: or at least i tried... checking EDIT2: you should have it now

You are a legend!!  ( I will eventually figure out how to check that. I am still trying to CATCHUP on the chain)

also... embarrassing to say it took me 5 minutes to work out how to create an account... Who would have thought to click the lock up in the corner.

it was in block 2347 Smiley

This thing is pretty frustrating.
It just does not update the Blocks unless I keep opening and closing it.
Then everytime I close the Webpage and open it again, I have to unlock it again.

I have 11 Active Peers, all within 8seconds of each other.

But I cannot figure out how to keep it updating.
Sometimes I close it and it updates, other times it does not.

Should I be closing the cmd.exe part, or should I be closing the Webpage part?


somewhat confusing that is for sure!


I guess after having a bit of a complain up above.
2 things please;
    1) can someone please send me 1 NXT  so that I can be excited when it finally is working and my balance is not 0.00     7325120753602111352
    2) Anyone want to sell me 100k NXT? (and how the hell do I do that)
