General Discussion / Re: Sparkle Alpha Test Network Live: Mining to be Honored in Real Network

Hello

My mining account is empty?  My bad used vote_all with my stash. Hopefully the next block will sort it out.

Has the test net stopped or is it slow blocks?

I'm still mining, and I think more people are, but the difficulty is so high right now that even if a block will be found it'll still be a long time until we find another.

Intuitively, it hurts my brain that this is a message signature...
I don't know why yet, but it sounds like something is a bit off..

Can (in principal) ECC_RECOVER_PUBLIC_KEY have multiple correct answers?

edit:

What I mean is, pKey recovery should (in principal) be checked against a directory or some authority for a match.
Bitcoin's message signing ripemd160's the pubkey against a public address (afaik) so a dirctory or authority is not needed in that case. Bitcoin's signmessage includes the number of pKey to recover from that message, as there can be up to 4, but mostly just 2 public keys that can be 'recovered' from the message [1]. Can the function be made to hash the pubkey against the signer's public address here as well, or use bitcoin's method somehow?

Good thing this is being tested.

Indeed.
bytemaster, do you remember problems like we have now when PTS was first introduced? I was mining PTS since day 0 and I don't relly remember the network forking like we have now.

Can you provide any input?
Thanks.

I'm forked as hell.. what's a good node to be connected to?
also, I just saw one node with current_head_block_number": 3685, so I'm guessing you're on a fork too.

Network completely borked :(

another edit:

Now I'm on this head : blockchain_head_block_num": 3829,

Is the target still high or am I on a fork?
I'm connected to 8+ peers who all share my block height..

So.. how many connections are you getting?
I'm on 4, one of them is the node from the list on page 1.
Blockchain height is 2741 and difficulty is 4194.

Does that sound like the main chain?

edit:
Suddenly 8 connections, a couple hundred blocks missed, difficulty back to 100...
Very strange.

Seems to have worked itself out.

SHA512 is the hash algorithm.   Yes, it could be optimized for ASIC but CPU can be optimized for bot nets.   Therefore SHA512 is a good GPU compromise.

Difficulty is retargeted continuously.

Any source code available for miners yet?

Sorry if it's already been discussed, I skimmed through the thread and couldn't find an answer to two questions:

1. What's the algorithm used in Sparkle's POW? I get that block header hashes are sha512, but what's the algo? is it Momentum like PTS?

2. What about difficulty re-target time? How often does that happen?


Thanks.

but I got this

Code: [Select]
")02326245rror: invalid arithmetic operator (error token is "
0


so I'm going to switch it back.

The error message is an indication that it's actually trying to calculate, which it wasn't before the change. Something's wrong with your input data.

(The whole pastebin / wget part is unnecessarily complicated IMO. Leave out the '<<< ... wget ... rest of the line...' part and c&p the output of wallet_check_sharedrop directly into the input.)

The reason the whole wget ... part is there is because I wrote this for myself while trying to help out merockstar on irc.
I I know it's not written well. I did it at like 4 in the morning :(

Actually I wrote the script :P
Feel free to "bash" my scripting skills!

Are you always trying to unlock the wallet for the following 12 days?
Can you try unlocking it for 10 minutes and see if it crashes?

Code: [Select]
wallet_unlock 600

ill try deleting the wallet, re-importing, and this time i'll unlock it before i try importing my ags,

No problem. consider joining #bitshares channel on freenode (irc).
Communicating back and forth will be easier for both of us.

chat link at top of screen?

No, if you wanna use a web client, use this:
