Hi,

While the extra 10-15 hashes is nice, running I20 on these 290's w/ modified cgminer will literally beat the shit out of your cards. If you are monitoring them, please observe that you probably have constant usage crashes to 0% and if you have the comp on a circuit w/ lights they will be pulsating. You also won't have a responsive desktop. I have a permanent artifact from one of my power surges due to this.

If you value your cards, please consider I17 rather than I20.

I was using afterburner/asus gputweak to monitor the settings so please confirm for yourself. . .mining vertcoin is not like mining litecoin.

Not sure what you mean with usage crashes, GPU usage stays at 100, so does hashrate and yes, lights do pulsate but I think this is due to the power outages in our country due to heavy ice rain tearing electricity cables. Desktop is responsive.

What are you using to monitor your usage? Also, I was using kill a watt, and it was showing fluctuations from 600w to 950+w. . so they were definitely happening. Does your core clock drop at all? What's the rest of your setup like?

wth were you mining with? a supercomputer?
I bought 460 of these when they were worth pennies just after release, woke up this morning to a BIG surprise
my $15 investment is now over $1900 and climbing...
I think my miners are gonna be switched over to vert tonight when I get home

I don't see problem with mining so much if he is one of those guys with 20MH/s rig and was mining at diff = 1

VTCPOOL OUTAGE IS NOW RESOLVED

Update

I found a problem in the configuration of php, that did not manifest when the MySQL server was local to the website, but now it is on a separate high-end server to accomodate more load, this setting crippled the SQL backend.

I have resolved the problem. You should be able to use the frontend website as normal again. You might see momentary (<2s) outages as I restart php and tune this setting, but the site is back up 100% now.

Sorry for the inconvenience caused to all our miners.

Hey fellow verters!

Ofcourse we're all very happy about the current rise of Vertcoin. We've been the fastest rising coin for 3 days in a row now with the 24h increase reaching as high as 357% earlier  today!
And since you're all reading this i'm convinced you know everything about the awesome features Vertcoin has to offer when you compare them to LTC for example.

But after reaching this much volume the rise probably hold for a while in a few days. And this is we're we (the community) should come in. We've got to start organising things to make people able to use VTC for practical purposes other than speculating on the value of the coin. We need to start Recruiting people with extensive technical knowledge to create trade platforms, we need people with a marketing background to keep promoting this coin by actively writing well-constructed articles about it's benefits in comparison to other coins. What we also need is people with graphical skills, creating infographics, banners, t-shirts and what not. And ofcourse we need to get more miners to get the network even more stable.

To get all these things done we'll need well-educated people willing to dedicate alot of their time to this coin. To attract these kind of people i suggest we start a marketing & promotion fund to make sure we can compensate these people for their time and dedication to our project.

Now to start i've got a few ideas wich i think can help this coin to get on it's way to replacing LTC or what the heck, even BTC.

Websites

Currently there isn't really a way to actually spend and use your vertcoins. A platform should be developed to do all kinds of things with your coins, exchange for BTC/LTC and even directly to fiat, quick escrow services, a pay-pall specificly designed for vertcoin and some sort of e-bay where people can offer goods to be exchanged for VTC and VTC only.

You could also think about lottery/casino websites for vertcoin where you could play games like poker/blackjack with your VTC.

Social Media

We should also start a Social-Media campaign promoting the pro's of vertcoin compared to the other cryptocurrencies. Social media will be especially important in the campaign to reach the mainstream public. ( At wich point known retailers will also start accepting VTC)

Articles/essays

We also need professional writers and perhaps journalists to promote the coin, they will be writing contructive posts about what whould be the benefits of using VTC as a currency. This campaign will be aimed at the well-educated people and ofcourse at possible investors.

Ofcourse there are many more things we could do to promote the coin but i believe that if we put time/effort in these causes vertcoin will surpass any other Cryptocurrency and become the next standard.
Let's get involved people and create REAL demand for our precious coin.  

I'd like to start the fund to make these great things happen right now to start these projects as fast as possible, for more information about myself check this topic.

I know the price is fluctuating alot atm. But think a moment for yourself, would you rather own 100 VTC with a value of 5 dollar or would you rather own 90 VTC with a value of 10x or even 25x that amount due to awesome community effort?

Start sharing and let's get this project going. Donations can be forwarded to this adress: Vn6rPFuEtAtcpaEKLRdGKYopDtE6cNvQBb  
I'll keep daily or even sub-daily updated about the amount of VTC in the wallet and the community will have influence about where we are going to spend it and how much by voting.

Let's get VTC to keep going Vertical!



For more information you can aways send me a PM or e-mail me on [email protected]

Cheers and keep up the good work!

Boris what is going on? it is up it's down it's up it's down? I have pointed my cards back to bitcrush until you get this sorted as it has been a waste of hashing for so many hours now.  I hope you work out what the issue is as when it was working the accepts were slow as hell.
When you get it working 100% let me know and I'll come back.

My R9 290 config, getting 475 Khash

--Thread-concurrency 24550
-w 256
--lookup-gap 2
-I 20
--gpu-engine 1040
--gpu-memory 1500
 
Powertune: 50% (in AB)

If you have Elpida, I suggest running engine at 1000!

if it helps you, please consider donating a couple of VTC Smiley

EDIT: Also, if you have kill-a-watts, you will see major fluctuations in power usage. I only have one, but it was enough to show me fluctuations from 600w to 950+w spikes on my 3 card rig.

Is there a way to setup mining for Vertcoins on Amazon's ec2 clouds?
Any help would be appreciated guys.
Thanks
