Re: [NLG] Guldencoin.com/pay-here — Meet our awesome community

Starting with 20,000.00000000 NLG I have only one bonus of 1999.37100002 NLG left on GaPNjn5nZTJto8wJro3S5FfFPYpk74y5Ub.
It's somewhat time consuming. That's why I have decided to find another destination for that last bonus.
Are there any suggestions?

All miners thanks for building a strong Guldencoin network.


I suggest you give it to Biomike, for buying all that hashing power and keeping rates stable...

That would be well spend coins.

An update on the longest block gap.
Thanks Markanth for fresh data at http://nlgstats.iblogger.org/

Code:
+-----------------------------------------------------------------+-------------------------------+
|                     NLG blocks mined per day                    |  longest block gap of the day |
+---------+---------+-----------+----------+-----------+----------+-----------+-------------------+
|   date  | total # |  Gf7wGA # | Gf7wGA % |  GNDA5M # | GNDA5M % |   block   |        gap        |
+---------+---------+-----------+----------+-----------+----------+-----------+-------------------+
|  Oct 02 |   527   |    383    |  72.68%  |     59    |  11.20%  |   127657  |     56 minutes    |
|  Oct 03 |   568   |    415    |  73.06%  |     62    |  10.92%  |   127682  |    107 minutes    |
+---------+---------+-----------+----------+-----------+----------+-----------+-------------------+

On October 2 all blocks were found within 60 minutes.
On October 3 block 127682 was found by HCM (nice work!), but they found also block 127677 in 12 seconds (okay, that means no bonus this time).

Starting with 20,000.00000000 NLG I have only one bonus of 1999.37100002 NLG left on GaPNjn5nZTJto8wJro3S5FfFPYpk74y5Ub.

I'll donate 2000 NLG per day to anyone that close the longest gap.
Exceptions:
- The closed gap must be at least 60 minutes
- That address hasn't received a blockreward in previous 15 blocks where the time to find was less than a minute.

Thank you dedicated miners. Keep on mining.
I especially thank:
- the miners @Hardcoreminers.com who found block 126512. You also found block 126509. Time to find block 126509 was 2 minutes and 17 seconds. So the 2000 NLG is yours!
- the miners @guldenpool.nl for finding block 126616. You earned a 2000 NLG bonus. All 15 block before 126616 where found by Clevermining. So you did an wonderful job.

As others have mentioned it, things look to be improving.  Let's hope the trend continues.  Assuming clevermining is tuning their hashrate towards NLG to avoid creating these these big block gaps?

Besides the gaptimes look better, the ones that found the hard blocks were able to pick up some sweets:
Sept 27, Block 124706 took 228 minutes, is found by GNDA5M, and GNDA5M found also block 124705 in 3 seconds.
Sept 28, Block 124999 took 125 minutes, is found by Gf7wGA, and Gf7wGA also found the prior 4 blocks (124995, 124996, 124997 and 124998) within same minute (but that's no surprise).
Sept 29, Block 125941 took 130 minutes, is found by GTumSs, GP9pWRx and GMxAVL, and they also found 125939 in 44 seconds.

As said earlier, I only donate if hard blocks are mined and the finder didn't find one of the prior 15 blocks withing 60 seconds.
So no extra bonus this time. There is still 5999.799 NLG left on GaPNjn5nZTJto8wJro3S5FfFPYpk74y5Ub.

Re: [NLG] Guldencoin.com/pay-here — 25TH OF SEPTEMBER V1.3 (DGW3) MANDATORY UPDATE
by
CIG
on 27/09/2014, 14:55:13 UTC

I can tell you this, if I ran a multipool and a coin's Dev team asked me to quit while they planned an upgrade, I would certainly comply. For now, we could just ask them to drop NLG until a long term solution is found.

Just my 2 cents....

A good change miners will return if Clever drop NLG for a while.
And... if 50 miners all add there 2 cents we have 1 nice Guilder!

The blockexplorer says Clever finds blocks in a few seconds. The truth is that they might find blocks much faster (about 12 blocks within a second?). That's faster then the blockexplorer can proces. I saw around 12 blocks with age -1Y at the same moment. Why is the algo allow that?

The difference in power between dedicated miners and Clever is way out of control. Boosting the dedicated miners I see as only solution. If we manage to mine the hard blocks quicker then the diff will not fall that much.

Meanwhile I'm somewhat behind in supporting the dedicated miners.
Here's the fix.

On Sept 25 Kloink @HCM found the first block after the update. Including the downtime during the update, the gap was 146 minutes. Well, maybe it's not fair to include the downtime in the longest block gap of the day, on the other hand the whole community was waiting for the first blocks to be found. And Kloink, you prevented me getting RSI hitting that F5 button! Thank you. I donate the 2000 NLG to the HCM adres. The pool admin will take care of it.

Sept 26. An exciting day. How will DGW3 react? What's the longest block gap? The answer is 71 minutes. #Blocks found by HCM dropped from 40 to 7. Keep mining fellows! If you quit the problem gets worse. One of those 7 blocks was block 124479. It was digged up by rjf19. Thanks a lot. If the price of NLG rise again you can get yourself a statute. I donate another 2000 NLG to the HCM adres. The pool admin will take care of it.

Just looking back through the block explorer and Hardcore's block stats it appears to me that the new diff algo in it's current form has not worked.  The only blocks that Hardcore are finding are the high diff blocks every hour or two which then opens the flood gate for Clevermining to rape the coin, leave, rinse and repeat.  

I've mined NLG on and off since day 1 but I haven't mined it for weeks due to the diff adjustment problems and frankly, the recent algo change appears to not have made one iota of difference.  This is a shame as I saw huge potential in this coin.  How are your merchants going to be able to accept the coin if it takes over an hour for one confirmation?
Merchants will be happy if the confirmation is done afterwards. But how do we keep the miners happy?

Option 5 (by Dutchyyy) is probably the best for the short term. Terk is cooperative and it's more profitable for Clevermining too (stats show Clevermining could earn the same amount coins with less power). Be aware that this is a workarond. First of all there are many more multipools. Have a look at http://poolpicker.eu/table?algo=scrypt. Secondly it still leaves only the hard blocks for dedicated miners.

And Thirdly it's very risky to leave someone having more then 50% of the power for a long time.
Can we finance a solid dedicated NLG pool? (Crowd funding? Premine?)

The update to DGW3 has been succesfull, but it looks like it is not the best solution for the blocktime issue. However we don't want to jump to conclusions to quickely, so we will be monitoring this situation closely for a few days. Guldencoin is a longterm project and we are confident that we will eventually find the best solution, with the update we showed we have the community/development strength to execute such an update very smoothly and we can do it again.

Its important that we hear different opinions and discuss ideas/solutions, it is still our number 1 priority. As for the merchants, most of them wont notice these blocktimes as they are using LitePaid, so transactions are done within seconds. So yes our focus is on merchants, but like we said in the beginning thats starts with a strong foundation.

Monitoring and finetuning DGW3 is covered by /GeertJohan. It's in good hands.
Just wondering, isn't there an algorithm for intra block difficulty adjustments?

I'll donate 2000 NLG per day to anyone that close the longest gap.
Exceptions:
- The closed gap must be at least 60 minutes
- That address hasn't received a blockreward in previous 15 blocks where the time to find was less than a minute.

Yesterday September 24, the longest block to find took 144 minutes.
The block in question was 122342 and was found by Gf7wGA. Thanks for stepping in Gf7wGA.
Because you also found block 122340 in only 18 seconds, you've got your share. Therefore, no bonus this time.

After 2 days where the longest confirmation time per day was around 20 minutes, it climbed up to 67 minutes on September 21  and 51 minutes on September 22.
Markanth, thank you for the stats: http://nlgstats.iblogger.org/
I thank all the miners who searched during the hard times (high diff and low hashrate). Keep on mining! Hopefully the confirmation time will be more stable after the update.

Especially, I like to express my respect to the following blockfinders:
September 21, GNDA5M who found block 121275. Thanks for supporting the network. I payed 2000 Guldencoin to you in block 122621.
September 22, GMnaaM and GaVgch for the search on block 122096. Although the longest gap was just a little under 60 minutes, I reward the effort with 2000 Guldencoin also. The payment appeared in block 122649.

Excellent work Mark! Do we get updates now and then?
I have set aside 20K NLG to support mining the 'hard blocks' for 10 days. I hope it's enough until the conformation time is more stable.
I'll donate 2000 NLG per day to anyone that close the longest gap.
Exceptions:
- The closed gap must be at least 60 minutes
- That address hasn't received a blockreward in previous 15 blocks where the time to find was less than a minute.

I presume pooladmins will distribute it after taking the normal pool fee. They may give it to the block finder or distribute it under the contributors or a combination of that.

Let's start with sept 16:
GgiTmq thank you for finding block 118414. You helped the Guldencoin network a lot. I donate 2000 NLG for that.
GLgBPz, GKaP57 and Gcpzph thank you for finding block 119148. You did a great job. Pro ratio I donate 42.69012692, 1957.30987306 and 0.00000002 NLG.

Very cool of you to reward the ones solving the hard blocks!  Instead of posting the table you requested here it will be uploaded daily to http://nlgstats.iblogger.org (free webhost with ftp) 

--Mark

It looks like the workaround measures have a positive effect on the longest confirmation time for now, although GfWGA still takes around 90% of generated new coins.

Nice. See no mistake here.
My results were about the same in the post on September 08, 2014, 11:22:02 AM. I screen scraped the data from the chainexplorer with timezone +2.00 and calculated the % against the average found blocks per day. You took the actual found blocks to calculate the %. That's more accurate.

I like to have a site like https://blockchain.info/pools.
And ... a charts with the longest time between blocks per day. I'm willing to donate to the one that finds that block.

Added a few additional SQL queries to the report.  Let me know if this is what you're looking for.  Cheers  --Mark

On behalf of the team and community I just want to say a big thanks to you CIG. This is why we most likely have the best community as so many people are putting there hands up to help push Guldencoin forward. I will also contribute if needed, just send me a PM if the 20k runs out before we implement the new algo change.

Thanx for your offer. Sadly, our funds are limited. If we run dry, I''ll send a PM.

Indeed, the community is great. So is the Guldencoin. It's our favorite altcoin now.
I'm a member of a Cryptocurrency Investment Group. We decided that our donations are a good investment. Keeping the miners happy is important.  I know the team will not overreact and will think things thoroughly. We hope it will relieve the team a bit, so they can focus on a more permanent solution. Keep up the good work!

Terk just PM'd me and he has decreased the NLG hashrate on CleverMining even further.  It is now 50% less than it was yesterday.

While I'm usually a strong opponent of multipools, I have to say that I really respect Terk for being this cooperative and responsible.  If I ever pull my miners from CripToe, I know where they'll land.

I agree, that's cooperative and responsible. To all other miners: Keep up mining please!
