could this work on windows?
just build like bitshares?

Yes. It should work on windows if you build like BTS.   If you can build a windows release that would be very helpful.

New client out with 4x faster mining and hard fork at block 10,000.

I'm stuck at 263 on both machines that are mining

Did you upgrade and reindex after the latest update?

I am on block 820

Looks like an invalid block at 263

I am putting in some code to dampen the difficulty adjustment because it appears to be swinging back and forth too much.   The hard fork will happen on block 10,000 (at ~850 now).    I am also about to release a client that will mine 4x faster (multi-threaded).

It is clear that the announcements on this forum and bitcointalk have not informed many people.   What is the best way to bootstrap awareness of Sparkle?


How are you measuring "awareness"?

Do you really mean "awareness", or are you looking for some specific action?
If so, what is that action?

The answer to that question would help inform an answer to your question.

Well I would think there would be more miners on the test net considering the blocks will be honored.   I would expect more people to be asking questions.   So how do you get the word out about the Dec 14th snapshot and the "start of mining" for the live network?

OK, good, by "awareness" you seem to mean "the hashpower being thrown at Sparkles".

Here's a question.

To mine Sparkles, would I have to switch my miners over from mining PTS? And if so, will this make the PTS blockchain, which you are sharedropping to, even slower than it is now?

Perhaps it would.

12 connections to the test network.  Mining is easy.  Free money.

I fixed a bug in difficulty adjustment that will cause a hard fork.  There are only about 4 clients connected so the fork is effective immediately.   It is backward compatible with all existing blocks, the difficulty should adjust better going forward.

$22,500 in the last 24h

BTC38 isn't reporting the volume properly.  It was really over $160K
