I've registered a few names (but without filling out hosting information, etc.) in order to test things out.

Me too - everything seems to work as planned so far Wink

I like the way this coin is heading, good work dev.

Would the names be visible in a block explorer? I wanna see what's out there.

That's quite easy: Just run the following command in the debug window (console >): name_scan Cool

Note: If possible please do not abuse 611 (SixEleven) by blocking cool names for other users without need. At least please add your contact details to the e-mail configuration field, so that others have the option to contact you in case they like to buy the name for a real project later...

Cool, that's a useful feature. Though it may timeout the wallet if there ends up being a lot of domain names registered!

beta 2 working

Yes - the mining rate has stabilized, now - so beta 2 is working fine, here.

Code:

{
"version" : 61100,
"balance" : 0.00000000,
"blocks" : 21987,
"timeoffset" : -2,
"connections" : 5,
"proxy" : "",
"generate" : false,
"genproclimit" : 1,
"difficulty" : 78449.99287632,
"hashespersec" : 0,
"testnet" : false,
"keypoololdest" : 1446306707,
"keypoolsize" : 100,
"paytxfee" : 0.06110000,
"mininput" : 0.00010000,
"unlocked_until" : 0,
"txprevcache" : false,
"errors" : ""
}

Registration and updates of the "Names Manage(ment)" works stable. Updates are accessible via dns requests on [domainname].611.to within reasonable time. Cool

So I still have the following task on the TODO (to be supplemented):

Wiki or Howto register, use and renew the domain name and idendity options
Add 611 (SixEleven) to a public Exchange like Cryptsy
>>> Please vote for 611 (SixEleven) on https://www.cryptsy.com/coinvotes/ <<<

or push the votes by donating to BTC 18ZNY2nL4g7mB8G1rcfBDnCmhUTi7YbwT
or contact your preferred crypto coin exchange service provider to add a 611 (SixEleven) trading pair
Setup a mining pool for 611 (SixEleven) to support weaker mining equipment and to level the revenues

What points are you missing on the TODO?

Thanks for your feedback.

Thanks for your reply men!

Yeah i also found out later that this should be the las vegas bug, this because in 12 hours i didn't get any reward on beta2. This should mean i must use asic hardware to mine it.

Yes - I've no asic hardware for mining sha256 and at the current difficulty rate it will take quite some time to solo mine a new block.

Have you already registered and tried out the domain name system functions of 611 (SixEleven)?

There are 2 coins what i like to mine with mining equip: Bitcoin and Litecoin...
All the rest i think its beter for CPU only, people can not join and mining bitcoin / litecoin anymore without hardware, special made for it.

People want to join a coin they can also mine, and that would mean resistance against mining hardware. So CPU only ( like cryptonight etc ).

Yes - personally, I would also prefer a non asic based coin design with a useful output for the public; like Primecoin.

As SixEleven is a fork of Namecoin the current design uses the standard Bitcoin SHA256 hash function which is best mined using special asic based hardware.

On the other side SixEleven does support merged mining with Bitcoin which should add some stability to the future development. You can mine it together with Bitcoin at almost no additional cost.

I had like 100.000 coins on beta 4 probably haha, now i changed to beta2 and i got 0 coins ( i think that's part of the bug in beta4 )

Hey - I've only had reached about 60.000 coins; that's the Las Vegas bug Cool

I'm working with the qt version.

I thought server=1 in the .conf file would be enough to enable the RPC interface. I guess namecoin was from a bitcoin fork so early such commands don't work in a conf file like coins I'm used to from more recent forks?

I ran 611-qt.exe with -server in a batch file and opened the external port on the machine running 611-qt.exe -- the miner is connecting and working!

Will repost if/when I find a block.

Thanks for your help and clarification!

Yes, I was also wondering that the 611-qt version blocks the RPC interface by default.
Maybe it's possible for fflo to address this issue in the next beta release.

Thanks for your feedback and happy mining! Cool

OK, try as I might, I still can't mine this for some reason.

My router shows port 8661 open in UPNP and port 8336 open in virtual servers as specified in my conf file.

My 611.conf file is as follows:

Code:

server=1
daemon=1
listen=1
port=8661
rpcport=8663
rpcuser=USER
rpcpassword=PASS
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1

Pointing my miner at either 127.0.0.1:8663 or [internalIPaddress]:8663 (the RPC port) results in no mining.

Same effect with pointing the miner at 127.0.0.1:8661 or [internalIPaddress]:8661 (the regular port). No mining.

Are you running your miner and the 611d (or 611-qt) on the same machine?
By default for security reasons you can only access the 611 rpc interface on port 8663 on the local host.
Using rpcallowip=add.an.other.ip you may add external IPs.

Quote from: notsofast on November 10, 2015, 04:33:26 PM

Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?

Are you running a self compiled text only (rpc) version of 611d or the graphical 611-qt variant?

If you are working with the 611-qt version you have to add the option " -server" on startup to enable the RPC interface on (default) rpc port 8663 (tcp).

Running "netstat -lnp" on any terminal you can check that tcp port 8663 (process 611d) is available for inbound connections.

I've never solo mined before (even though merge mining with p2pool is pretty much solo mining anyway), so I can't help you much. Are you using your wallet user name & password with your miner? I'm pretty sure that needs to be done, as well as allowing your traffic through the firewall & port forwarding of course.

It uses NMC code, so you should change the ports in the "611.conf" to:

Code:

port=8661
rpcport=8663

Agreed, it took me a while to realize Wink

I've been trying to solo mine with a sha256 ASIC and have been unable to do so. Specifying my own port in my .conf file has not worked.

What should I name my .conf file? 611coin.conf? 611.conf? coin.conf?

Since the ports are hardcoded, should the conf file simply consist of:

Code:

server=1
daemon=1
listen=1
rpcuser=
rpcpassword=

Patrick, if you could post a suggested conf file rather than send miners to dig through another coin's code, I think you might encourage more mining activity.

Thanks for the feedback. A new block should be mined on average every five minutes.

You are running merged mining successfully now using the merged-mine-proxy script from contrib?
i.e.:

Code:

contrib/merged-mine-proxy -w $PORT_to_direct_mining_equipment -p http://pw:[email protected]:8332/ -x http://pw:[email protected]:8663/

No, I use the standard p2pool merge mining parameters. I'm still getting loads of orphaned blocks though:

Code:

[...]
ProcessBlock: ORPHAN BLOCK, prev=bb519e1964dedc13baed
sending: getblocks (869 bytes) 
[...]

Isn't this a well known feature of p2pool to generate new blocks at a stable rate?

Quote from: p3yot33at3r on November 10, 2015, 07:22:11 AM

Difficulty seems a bit too slow to adjust, especially with all the orphans.

The difficulty factor should adjust in 48 block intervals (target: one block every five minutes =48 blocks in four hours):

src/main.cpp

Code:

unsigned int static GetNextWorkRequired(const CBlockIndex* pindexLast, const CBlock *pblock)
{
    const int64 nTargetTimespan = 4 * 60 * 60; // four hours
    const int64 nTargetSpacing = 5 * 60; // five minutes
    const int64 nInterval = nTargetTimespan / nTargetSpacing;

But the factor may only increase or decrease by a factor of four on each retargeting:

src/main.cpp

Code:

    // Limit adjustment step
    int64 nActualTimespan = pindexLast->GetBlockTime() - pindexFirst->GetBlockTime();
    printf("  nActualTimespan = %"PRI64d"  before bounds\n", nActualTimespan);
    if (nActualTimespan < nTargetTimespan/4)
        nActualTimespan = nTargetTimespan/4;
    if (nActualTimespan > nTargetTimespan*4)
        nActualTimespan = nTargetTimespan*4;

My wallet is runing perfectly

Curently at block 89772

Are you still on the beta4 fork with the las vegas bug? Because there was essentially a rollback to the point at which the blockchain originally got stuck, during the reversion to beta2.

First:
How to check wich version i have? When i go in my wallet is say:version 0.6.11

When i go to the link above from github i only see the beta4 to download, when i go to the website i can only download the beta4.

I dont know wich version i have atm... But it looks like mining is working etc, but if all this coins are gone because i'm at the wrong blockchain or something(what means i am mining for nothing) i want to know that asap.

Edit: i just re-opend the wallet, i got coins but it dont start syncing ( is that the beta4 bug?)

https://github.com/fflo/sixeleven/releases/tag/v6.1.1-b2

here is that beta2 version anyway, just changed b4 to b2 and got this.

Sorry guys - I know the current situation is very confusing and unsatisfactory.

Rolling back to beta2 also means that the block chain is still stuck at block #21085 until this task has been resolved at "difficulty" level 4692.86619945. Huh

So we are in dire need of some powerful mining ressources to resolve the next blocks until difficulty recalculation.

Can anyone following this thread please check out if merged mining does work successfully using beta2:
Merged mining should work like described for Namecoin here: https://github.com/namecoin/namecoin-legacy/blob/b043fba28018721b68c90edfc81b9eacb070b47d/doc/README_merged-mining.md
Just replace the Namecoin port 8331 with the 611 (SixEleven) port 8661.

Or should we discuss to move the PoW concept to a non asic compatible code to make sure that the new block mining rate and difficulty levels gets more resistant against big mining pool attacks?

Thanks for your feedback.
