ok my balance is now

bitmonero   52.061086659182   

So did I get lucky or has the difficulty dropped ?  

Where can I check the current difficulty ?

How many core do you have? It looks like you are rather lucky. The diff is getting higher and higher. There is no signal that it will drop. As of the current difficulty, please look at bitmonerod screen (the console one)

So, I installed the Windows package, downloaded the blockchain successfully, worked out the firewall rules, and actually got the daemon to show that I was hashing. CPU usage with the daemon running is > 95%. I have a 2.8 GH AMD Sempron processor, 8 GB of RAM, on a 64-bit Windows 8 machine.

The problem is that the highest hash rate I have seen so far is 0.1 H/s. Most of the time it is showing zero.

What's with that??

At this point, I don't see any reason to run my processor at 100% if I am not getting any significant hashing power out of the deal

Any suggestions?

Rick

Can anyone help with this error or recovering from it?

Sad
Are my coins lost?  Undecided
size of wallet.bin : 0 bytes

I still have wallet.bin.address.txt and wallet.bin.keys

I had a similar issue where my bin some how got corrupted and would unlock with the password (yes, it was the right password)

Is there any sort of recovery or am I just shit out of luck?

Is there a way of saving my wallet like exporting the private key ?

An Impressive Purely Anonymous Currency.
Hi there,

Going to give this coin a go so synced over night and started mining.

Has rate is as follows :-

hashrate: 17.1579
hashrate: 17.0000
hashrate: 17.0526
hashrate: 17.3158
hashrate: 17.3158
hashrate: 17.1579
hashrate: 17.1053
hashrate: 17.1053
hashrate: 17.5789

See what happens!

I now have 17 in my wallet.  I'm not sure if this is good or bad but considering I have 30 x 2.3 threads I would hope for more!  While less may be worth more, on a new coin it is nice to see more results and this inspires you to continue.  I had the same perception problem with bytecoin.  While I understand pools may come early prospectors always like to find something ;-)


Yes, there is sth strange. I have 36threads - yesterday 8 blocks found, today only one. Quite big difference. Why? Too big difference to say that it's just a matter of luck.

Difficulty went up a lot recently:
two days ago: 301298
yesterday: 346375
today: 459337

That might be why.


Yes, it's true, it could be the reason.

What happens if I don't open that port? Ex: I am using a laptop that is behind a corporate firewall. I can not ask the sysadmin guy to open that port on the router.

Thanks

It will still work. You won't be connected to the p2p as robustly and if you are mining you might have more orphans. Not encouraged since if nobody opens their port there won't be a p2p. But it will work.

Also, other nodes will still probably try (and fail) to connect to you. That might get logged on the corporate firewall. Be aware.

Ok thanks
It was not clear for me that I had to use ./bitmonerod instead of the miner.

I see a lot of messages like that in bitmonerod screen. What is the port 18080 used for?
That is the p2p.

Do you need to open that port to the outside to allow people connect to me?

Yes

So what is going on right now? Those that actually downloaded from git the previous 2 days are merge mining?

No, the only thing that changed in github is the minor version number tag on the blocks. TFT had said that anyone using the new minor version number would be construed as "voting for" merged mining, but he later agreed that some explicit action will  be required to vote.

No merged mining is happening right now, and in fact there no code for merged mining in github yet.

What is the plan? I for no reason want to support BCN...

The plan is to keep fighting to keep the BCN shills and ballot-stuffers from sabotaging this coin in order to pump their ninja premined BCNs. Hopefully we can stop them, but you have to recognize they have 100 billion reasons to keep trying.
