lol, bee watching the price drop wide eyed, people are so afraid that rather than chance it for after  the snapshot, they are selling high now.

I've been running the pts-getwork with miner.exe ptspool.conf for a couple days now, with R9 280x gpu, not a single block I was wondering if someone could tell me if I have the NoirShare.conf setup correctly for solo mining gpu.

rpcuser=xxxxxx
rpcpassword=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
rpctimeout=30
rpcport=18500
rpcallowip=localhost
gen=1
server=1

my ptspool.conf looks like this.
host=127.0.0.1
port=18500
rpcuser=xxxxxx
rpcpass=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
#Number of threads requesting work from the server in parallel
getwork_threads=8
submit_threads=8
OpenCL devices to run miner on
devices=0,1,2
platform=0
 
my understanding is that gen=1 is needed for mining.. But should it be zero since the miner.exe is externally mining?

NoirShares.conf

rpctimeout=30

? why???

rpcallowip=localhost

i know its the same, but try using the actual ip

submit_threads=8

try lowering this.

either way, is your GPU registering load when you start the miner?

I'm really not trying to be rude, but here's my take on this whole NIG thing so far: your fears that PTS holders will sell their NRS at their first opportunity are justified by the fact that you're not inspiring confidence in us!

If III does not step in to stabilize the price, it'll drop a lot after the snapshot....maybe then we can talk about PTS holder confidence

The price (of PTS) will drop after Feb 28 precisely because III has convinced people that BitShares X will have value. That is, the drop in price of PTS will be a perfect example of PTS holder confidence in Invictus! The drop in price will precisely reflect the confidence that PTS holders have in BitShares X.

Anyway, I'm not trying to tell you what to do with NRS; obviously that's your prerogative. I wish your venture well whether I'm a part of it or not. I'm just bewildered by your implicit assumption that it's somehow not your responsibility to convince owners of NRS to hold instead of to sell.

If i focus on talking about reasons to hold, i'll never stop talking but get little done. I want to get some things done then talk a bit, then rush back to more development. The fall of PTS is not a good thing for Invictus. 

I think the questions we're curious about (that nobody is answering directly) are:

1. Right now (not at some future date), can I import a PTS private key and claim NRS? I.e., am I currently entitled to some NRS?
2. If the answer to question (1) is "yes," then how do I import said PTS private key?

Thanks.

me too, i'm curious, when you have said NRS, what will you do with them?

Maybe I missed it, could you please rephrase the details about pts sharesholding:
 - how many nrs do I get for 1pts
 - how was it achieved as chain is already out and running
 - at which block did that happen?

Thanks

You havent missed a thing unless you don't have any NRS at all.

you are right, the chain was already active by the time i figured out how to include balances. it has been suggested that a hard fork be implemented  at block 6000 to make it easy, but i am reluctant to endanger the functional chain in such a manner. We have considered system that will allow us to confirm the owners of addresses. while more complicated, it is the most sure fire way of ensuring fair allocation. If implemented immediately, i could even give 10%. It's long and taxing on me to do it that way, but it is the most feasible non-destructive way to do so. 

we have an existing snapshot with the balances and addresses, so at the opening of the investment options, we will publish a PTS address, every person whose address is in the snapshot and wishes to have NRS will send the bare minimum tx with their NRS address in the comment. this ensures easy verification that your address is in the list and what your NRS address is.

There are exactly 13105 addresses with balances greater than or equal to one, and a total of 46884 addresses with non zero balances. As you can see, even if only 1/10 of the community verifies, it's still a mammoth task. even the tx fees i will pay will be in the hundreds.

Do you think it's worth the hassle or should i just leave it as a bad job? I would allocate 24 - 36 hours to spend on this exercise.

hello barwizi,
what actually are the products that noirbits will give us a stake in? Do you have specified this somewhere? What services will the DAC you develope provide? (for example btc can be used for payment processing and money transmittence etc)
Also, will you operate under a legal entity (brick and morter company) and will you unveal your identity?
Will you have a team?
What is the roadmap? And roughly when will what happen (outcomming DACs etc.)?

hello

it's NIG, noirbits is a currency. Your investment in a venture entitles you to dividends. rather than the DAC concept used by III, all ventures under NIG belong to the respective investors. Rather than innumerable blockchains we will maintain a maximum of three. NRB/NRS and one more that is still far far far from ever being implemented because it is still a concept. We work by pooling the investments and embarking on business ventures, the profits of which are paid either monthly or per quarter based on the business model of each venture. For example, an active exchange should pay out monthly, whereas a crypto development venture will likely pay out every few months .

Please read the following documents

:- NIG definition https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxCtiOzdwvPycU12eWh3Q0Z0R0E/edit?usp=sharing

Investment Options and how they work :- https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxCtiOzdwvPycU12eWh3Q0Z0R0E/edit?usp=sharing

The team is currently very small (4). but we will keep it this way until investors choose more permanent staff.

The current list of mile stones is as follows

• Normalize Mining of NRS on all platforms
• Develop an easy audit System for investor use
• Development of the Trade platform
• Development of NoirStore

Thanks!
That is twice the same document?
...so I i am dependend on the decisions of others what my money is specifically invested in?
...in the doc you say "look at the example venture". Where can I find that?
...do the venture ideas come from Noir stakeholders or from outside/3rd parties?
reagrds

sorry i'll link the other one that answers your question.  :-https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxCtiOzdwvPyaTlDZmxDZHd2SWs/edit?usp=sharing

.so I i am dependend on the decisions of others what my money is specifically invested in?

With the options available, you chose how your money is used, either for specific ventures or in a general fund that gets you a piece of everything.
 

in the doc you say "look at the example venture". Where can I find that?

The example venture is actually NoirEx and due to recent developments lol (gox) we are re-writing some of the policies, I will publish it once i get a bit more legal advice. We are trying to think of ways to assure clients and investors alike that business will be conducted in a professional manner with balances and checks in effect at all times and all levels.

do the venture ideas come from Noir stakeholders or from outside/3rd parties?

All venture ideas post NoirStore may only be submitted by shareholders. Once share holders agree on which venture to execute then a mandate is passed for research, development and deployment. The dev teams only start work after approval by shareholders.

thanks guys
my wallet is up now.but the sync with network takes along
how long should take normally?

with high bandwidth it should take less than twenty minutes from start
