I think it will be a little longer than 2 hours.
Err, no it won't, forgot about PoS blocks.

Less than 2 hours to unofficial 100k blocks IRC tip party!

It was only the wind.
For soloing this coin, would it be the same way like every other coin?

Soloing with cpu (in-wallet) or gpu?

Either way it wouldn't really be effective, pool mining should be a more stable source of income since the hash has pretty high spikes (and also a high avarage) since 1-2 weeks.

I meant GPU. Well you have a point, although the average definitely varies per day.

But just hitting one block would earn me more than the entire time on the pool.

But I dont think you could get that 1 block with solo.

Found one earlier this morning, no harm in trying.....

How much hash did you have? I've got 1.8GH/s out of one of my rigs; maybe I'll solo for a while.

I'm testing it on Nicehash and getting a lot of discarding stale work and NONCE overflows and a few Error 23: Share above target
I guess you turned on debug output with -D option. Stale work is supposed to be replaced with fresh one, the more NONCE overflow messages the better is the speed Smiley

WOW!  Smiley
over 350 mhps on r9-280x
but
runs too hot 100o+
what arguements to control I, mem and core?
The best settings for 280x already are in cmd file, with reasonable overclocking (1150) I get 540 MH/s. There is no options for changing clock, use external tools (AMD control center or afterburner)

so the smolter displays the sum of all your gpus.

Please test new Smelter version
Should work with Nicehash now (but keep an eye on it!), more GPUs are supported (270, 290x and other GCN)

What options? I'm pretty sure it's a work-in-progress...

only thing i changed in the .cmd was the addresses, running in win7, fresh format/install, no sp1 (yet), power is undervolted slightly. i'm using the new beta driver (15.3) and  2.9 sdk. is there a throttle?  brakes?  Wink

>>>edit 4 hrs>  i quit the other gpu and now running ok, i see the i/o from 230 - 420 mhps. doing 389 right now, 78o  Cheesy

280x, 15.3, silent server, all auto

for common smelter effect watch the nicehash profitability, it will die soon

command line?

hello, any news rgarding the c-cex mess?

Honeybadger from Polo (together with us) is waiting for C-cex Yuriy to send the wallet files over so he can fix them. We are getting "Sending them soon, I'm busy" every day. Please ask for it on the C-cex trollbox, in a C-cex support ticket or on their IRC channel: #c-cex-exchange.

Polo and Bittrex are still operating perfectly.

Good luck with ccex support, after a 4 day wait they finally responded with this just now.

"Hello! Apologies for being late with this answer. VNL wallet is beta software with lot's of issues inside and unfinished functions supplied by dev without any warany and support. We had lot's of problems with VNL wallet and spent many hours to resolve it. The last problem when wallet refused to send coins having enough balance in it (returning "connection input failed" message) could not be solved without dev help. Instead of collaboration JohnConnor refused to help to fix his software and posted this: https://talk.vanillacoin.net/topic/130/c-cex-de-list-request/4 So we removed wallet from exchange without any chance to fix wallet and send VNL balances to users. According to our rules https://c-cex.com/?id=terms this is exactly the case when we had to remove wallet without any compensation. HoneyBadger honestly offered us to help fixing this problem and we already negotiating our terms of collaboration with him. We give no guarantee but it is possible he can solve a problem with wallet and send us sendable coins so we can compensate user balances. Thanks!"  

"Without warranty and support .... removal without compensation" Purely my (researched) opinion (at the moment): they lost part of the coins and want to shift the blame.

Leaving this here: https://twitter.com/KryptRichards/status/585875672415002625

Polo still at 0 lost coins, obviously the code is the problem. /s

Thank you for your support.

connection input failed
Can't find exactly this string not in sources, nor in windows wallet binary, were they on private wallet build?
If by chance it was
Code:
bool transaction::connect_inputs(
// ...
            if (
                prev_out.n() >= tx_previous.transactions_out().size() ||
                prev_out.n() >= tx_index.spent().size()
                )
            {
                log_error(
                    "Transaction connect inputs failed, " <<
                    get_hash().to_string().substr(0, 10) <<
                    " previous out n is out of range [" << prev_out.n() <<
                    "-" << tx_previous.transactions_out().size() << "]" <<
                    " previous transaction " <<
                    prev_out.get_hash().to_string() << "\n" <<
                    tx_previous.to_string()
                );
               
                return false;
            }
then the problem needs developer attention, regardless who's to blame. Corrupted db, network attack, bad blockchain branch switching, malformed wallet transaction - what really happened?
My own uneducated guess they put wallet.dat on cheap SSD drive Grin

Found a paper with detailed description of bitsliced whirlpool. Not exactly what I was doing before getting stuck at CPU part of Smelter, so no harm in sharing:

What's up with that "red dot" transaction? Why still receiving? (e7db627ea8a652091c87e35c96e4727ec57e73aea7424f949347a3c40e4625d6)

I get just 165MH/s on HD7850  Huh
Were Smelter as advanced as sgminer and company, many problems could be diagnosed by plain screenshot Sad
Try to play with worksize, change '-W 64' in .cmd file to -W 128 or 256, select the best value, lower memclock and start to raise core clock. Keep an eye '5s:' speed, it catches up quickly.

And I get ~271MH/s on it.
Something new?

Why don't you release some full speed version where you get a percentage?
We are more or less at par with Wolf0, he is obviously better at OpenCL, I think I can show a trick or two at math. Our miners are roughly equal. I spared my best kernel to throw Smelter into wildness of buggy drivers, weird software, rare GPUs, newbie users and other real-life issues. When all it will be over, Smelter will be mature miner, ready to make money - with other algorithms. Sadly, this move devastated profits on Vanillacoin for OpenCL developers, at least until next breakthrough with AES-like kernels.
EDIT: damn, I just have to buy sample GPUs, or insert remote kernel loading, or something else to handle all that GPU zoo.

TYVM smolen, smelter runs 181MH/s on my poor 7850

Sure you do, you're "tha wolf" Wink I'm not surprised


There was a point to that comment: had you took the time to read what junkozane quoted, you might have realized that he probably isn't using the stock SGMiner (as I am not.)

I'm working on it. I need to write my own miner from scratch first, so it's not infected with the GPL.



I'm getting that speed with smelter version posted above - I believe junkozane was talking about smelter too Roll Eyes
(with stock sgminer I get about 50)

Really? Because with the version I released a while ago, you should be getting FAR more than 50MH/s.

With "official" I get ~50, with yours ~84 (I'm not sure if I have the latest yours - link to download pls?), with smelter ~165
