I'm late to the MLB party Roll Eyes

Have set my two 750Ti OC rigs running Kopiemtu to merge mine at xpool using lyra2v2. Kopiemtu is just so good! I now have it on 2.5" laptop drives in each rig, with various updates and the additions the guys made a while back - https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=16800.msg265672#msg265672 - kudos to induktor and the others.

Also installed the MBL app on my 'phone, nice work jk Smiley Heard a noise from the vicinity of where my phone was sitting next to an empty crisp packet, sounded like the packet had moved and had made a scrapping sound. Picked the phone up and nearly jumped out of my skin as more MBL arrived in my wallet like a fruit machine/one armed bandit/slot machine/pokie pay out! A nice surprise and a nice touch but is there a switch to turn the notification off somewhere?

Matt will have to field questions in regards to the multipool. I do know he has been working on it. I will ask him to update here.

CaliforniaJim, it does seem like you are on the correct chain. Your block height is correct. To confirm with certainty, please give me an address here or via PM and I will send a small amount.
Thank you CryptoCanary, send to SY5vK6SJiACDtpCaCwsxjhEfvDVifD1U1H and I'll confirm its arrival.

Hey guys,

Any news on the multipool ? I'd love to point some of my R9-280Xs and 750ti towards it to mine and autotrade for SLG.

Good job with new wallet and updating to 1.5.1.1 thou Smiley
I'd quite like to do that too.

Also, how do I check that I'm on the right blockchain? After my demented cat decided that my laptop looked like his litter tray - the laptop was off fortunately and the hard drive is OK, cat now buried in the garden - I have eventually got round to transferring my SLG wallet to another PC, things look all right although I have a page of 'Generated but not accepted' stake transactions. New stake transactions seem to be coming in OK now tho. I'm on v1.5.1.1: Full Release on Linux, Statistics page shows block height 336491 @ 15:05 Zulu (GMT)

Many thanks

Re: [ANN] NiceHash.com - sell & buy hash rate cloud mining service / multipool

We're pleased to announce the immediate availability for buying and selling hashing power based on Lyra2REv2 algorithm on NiceHash.com: https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=news&id=27

Kind regards,
NiceHash.com

Will LyraREv2 be added to the multi-algo switching?

It is added, but as for the previous coins, you have to explicitly enable it since by default the factor is set to f14=0, therefore you have to add "...;f14=7.0" to the stratum password config line to all of your NiceHash pool definitions.
Excellent work - changed my rigs to the lyra2rev2 algo and all seems to be functioning OK

... besides Vertcoin, that are still using the original version of Lyra2RE. And to make clear - Lyra2RE algorithm hasn't forked, only Vertcoin (the coin itself) has forked to new algorithm Lyra2REv2.

Thank you for using our service and kind regards,
NiceHash team
Many thanks for the info., I'll carry on as I am for the time being.

Vertcoin is forking to a new mining algo, a modified lyra2re.
Will you add a new algo or replace the old one (or none of the two)?

Huh, these guys at Vertcoin are really fanatic with those algo forks Wink ... we'll take a look at it and we'll probably add the new algo.
Hi Nicehash

Has the new lyra2re algo been implemented on nicehash yet? I'm currently mining with the old one.

Many thanks

I'm on my way to being full synced. Pity I can't fully sync my brain when building the qt wallet, I forgot to use "USE_UPNP=1" when doing the qmake - that was why I wasn't connecting to the network properly Roll Eyes

Sorry SLG team for my idiocy, I've made a note for when I build the next versions of the wallet.

Looks like we may have a problem with the fork, not code related but because there are simply not enough 1.5.0.0 wallets on the network to form a general consensus.

Me and Matthew are looking at multiple issues at the moment and trying to get Windows and Mac wallets built and move everyone up to the current version.

Looking at peers on the network it can be seen that people are still on version 1.2.0.0!!!!!

Anyone who is fully synced please message me (PM).

We advise to not complete any transactions at this current moment in time.

Thanks Spencer

A new transaction just arrived in my wallet, the transaction on 28 confirms now has 29 so something is still working. I changed my .conf file to what is in post no.1 - I have several connections as you can see below - now up to 26.

New wallet (v1.5.0.0: Full Release (Linux of course)) not syncing, stuck at '~310 blocks remaining'. Last stake to complete was at 02:22 (BST), next stake at 02:30 stuck with 28 confirms. Have closed and reopened wallet but its still stuck.

Has the fork thrown a spanner in the works?

Hello,

Thank you all for these nice comments.

We're open to any offer. Some people have asked for just the domain name. We can sell the code in a one shot deal. We can also give the code and get a share of the profit. In any case, we can help to set it up and for occasional troubleshooting.

Im very happy that there is interest to have other people than me to keep this shit alive.

You are a good guy Mr. Yaamp, I hope that the fruits of your labour can be continued.

I was thinking along those lines too - that you could sell the code, etc. and still keep an interest by having a small share in any profits, seems a sensible way to go if someone (not me, I might add, I'm not much of a coder) wants to take over the reins of your wonderful project. Seems a shame to let it just go into the ether.

Sad to see you go Mr. Yaamp but all good things come to an end unfortunately.

I've now pointed my little nvidia 750Ti rigs at http://www.simplemulti.com, still mining lyra2 mostly.

I did straight compile and it worked. Any error messages you get just google to find solution. I got one error & here's what I had to do to fix:

Code:
chmod 755 src/leveldb/build_detect_platform




If you could make a nice detailed guide on how to install on Linux I would appreciate it.

I will throw you some MTR as a gift.

Thanks for help the community while I was grabbing some much needed rest.

Cheers,

MasterTrader777

Guide is already here: https://github.com/CrypticApplications/MTR-Update/blob/master/doc/readme-qt.rst

Step by step would be something like this for Ubuntu:

1. Open terminal & install Git

Code:
sudo apt-get install git

2. Install dependencies (I'm not sure this is all that is)

Code:
sudo apt-get install qt5-default qt5-qmake qtbase5-dev-tools qttools5-dev-tools \
    build-essential libboost-dev libboost-system-dev \
    libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-thread-dev \
    libssl-dev libdb++-dev

3. Clone from github & go into directory

Code:
git clone https://github.com/CrypticApplications/MTR-Update.git && cd MTR-Update

4. In directory enter

Code:
qmake "USE_UPNP=1" && make

5. In case of errors just google it -  errors are likely due to missing dependency. I had some error about detecting platform so I did:

Code:
chmod 755 src/leveldb/build_detect_platform

and after that issue "make" command again

6. That should be all and Qt wallet executable should magically appear in your directory.


MasterTrader wallet up and running on Mint 17.1 - many thanks bizz, I just needed the chmod command and it compiled fine. Sorry I was lazy and didn't search for the solution, maybe I was rushed at the time and took the easy way out.

Also Community I have a question.

What features would you all like in the MTR wallet if you had your choice.

Give me your best ideas.

Cheers,

MasterTrader777

Hi MasterTrader

Not so much an idea for a feature in the wallet, but any chance you might release a wallet for Linux? I'm happy to leave a Linux system running 24/7 staking, but much less so a Windows system. At the moment I fire up my Windows 7 test system to stake for an hour or so while I have my breakfast Cheesy

Been lurking from very early on and kept up with what you're doing everyday. Great work, keep it up

CJ

You can compile from sources on github. It's not hard at all.  Look for readme there about building qt. Just install some dependencies, hit 2 commands & you have safest wallet possible.
Hi bizz

I did try, both ways - straight compile and by installing qt creator - but failed. I'll have another go and post the error messages I get. Has anyone successfully built a Linux MTR wallet from the source?

Its the 'EXAMPLE' that makes it look really good, without it it might look a bit bland. What word could EXAMPLE be changed to and keep the cool look?
I'm struggling to think, one will come to me soon.

CJ

My first thougt of a text that would fit was; Future Smiley


Guys. The 'EXAMPLE' is a watermark to prevent duplication. The final version doesn't have a watermark.
Have the Bitcoin Expo guys allowed the use of their name/logo for these cards?
I knew the 'EXAMPLE' was just a method to prevent copying but it does look Cool with it on. Smiley

I will be attending the Bitcoin Expo 2015 in London on the 24th and 25th of this month (Jan).

If anyone is interested in coming along and meeting up you can get a free ticket worth £20 (available today only)  - http://bitcoinexpo2015.com/

I look forward to meeting some people there.
Booked a free ticket for this event, I think there's a few more still available. I'll do my best to get down to London on one or other of the days. Hope to see you there Spencer.

Hey there gents, recently switching myself over to Linux (Mint) . I run gtx 750ti and am hoping someone could point me to a link or post how to install latest drivers on Mint 17.1.
Struggling with it any help is appreciated, thanks.
I struggled too. Fixed by putting 'nomodeset' in Grub (Google it) which gave me a prompt with Ctrl+Alt+F1 (before nomodeset I got only a black screen).

So download driver
edit Grub - sudo nano etc/default/grub
reboot - don't login
Ctrl+Alt+F1
sudo service mdm stop
cd Downloads (is driver install file there?)
sh NVIDIA.........
follow instructions(?)
Out for rest of afternoon, I'll help you more if needed after 17:00 Zulu
