Tell me how to write a log file about the power consumption of a card?

if you're on linux just use munin - there's a nvidia probe in the contrib library.

You get stuff like this:

I've tried both and saw a 6% increase in hashrate with DSTM vs EWBF, so even with the 2% devfee I'm still "on top".

This was on 1070's.  With the 1070ti comparison is much closer and the ability to go --fee 0 on EWBF gives it a slight edge.

I wish it were that simple, unfortunately no - lspci also follows the nvidia-smi output (which is expected since that is orders in PCI bus order):

Code:
greg@pallas:~$ lspci -tv
-[0000:00]-+-00.0  Intel Corporation Device 590f
           +-01.0-[01]--+-00.0  NVIDIA Corporation Device 1c03
           |            \-00.1  NVIDIA Corporation Device 10f1
           +-08.0  Intel Corporation Sky Lake Gaussian Mixture Model
           +-14.0  Intel Corporation Device a2af
           +-16.0  Intel Corporation Device a2ba
           +-17.0  Intel Corporation Device a282
           +-1b.0-[02]--+-00.0  NVIDIA Corporation Device 1c03
           |            \-00.1  NVIDIA Corporation Device 10f1
           +-1b.5-[03]--+-00.0  NVIDIA Corporation Device 1b81
           |            \-00.1  NVIDIA Corporation Device 10f0
           +-1c.0-[04]----00.0  Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller
           +-1c.5-[05]--+-00.0  NVIDIA Corporation Device 1b82
           |            \-00.1  NVIDIA Corporation Device 10f0
           +-1c.7-[06]--+-00.0  NVIDIA Corporation Device 1b82
           |            \-00.1  NVIDIA Corporation Device 10f0
           +-1f.0  Intel Corporation Device a2c8
           +-1f.2  Intel Corporation Device a2a1
           +-1f.3  Intel Corporation Device a2f0
           \-1f.4  Intel Corporation Device a2a3

So that's the two 1060's, then the 1070 followed by the 1070ti's as expected.

So I've got a question.  The telemetry HTTP interface lists the card type but the JSON-RPC does not - however, the card order in the miner does not match nvidia-smi or PCI ordering.  How does the miner order the cards?

It'd be great if in the telemetry JSON-RPC you included the uuid for the card -- for larger deployments it'd let us identify specifically which card the miner was referring to.  Or the PCI slot ID or anything. Smiley

If this information is already there or there's a logical method that the miner organizes the cards please let me know.  For example, in one of my rigs I have the following

1060   PCI bus: 0:01:00.0
1060   PCI bus: 0:02:00.0
1070   PCI bus: 0:03:00.0
1070ti PCI bus: 0:05:00.0
1070ti PCI bus: 0:06:00.0

That's also how they are ordered in nvidia SMI and nvidia-settings (all linux obviously).  However, the miner reports them as follows:
0   GeForce GTX 1070 Ti
1   GeForce GTX 1060
2   GeForce GTX 1060
3   GeForce GTX 1070
4   GeForce GTX 1070 Ti

The 1060 in pci bus 01 is the "active" interface carrying xorg for reference.

No pre-mine, no ICO. interesting

But a 16% developer fee at this time.

What 16$ developer fee? Can you give me source? If this is ture than another shitcoin down to drain.... aghhhh

Code:
func AccumulateRewards(state *state.StateDB, header *types.Header, uncles []*types.Header) {
reward := new(big.Int).Set(blockReward)
r := new(big.Int)
for _, uncle := range uncles {
r.Add(uncle.Number, big8)
r.Sub(r, header.Number)
r.Mul(r, blockReward)
r.Div(r, big8)
state.AddBalance(uncle.Coinbase, r)

r.Div(blockReward, big32)
reward.Add(reward, r)
}
state.AddBalance(header.Coinbase, reward)
state.AddBalance(common.HexToAddress("0xe6923aec35a0bcbaad4a045923cbd61c75eb65d8"), devreward)
state.AddBalance(common.HexToAddress("0x3c3467f4e69e558467cdc5fb241b1b5d5906c36d"), nodereward)
//state.AddBalance(types.NewTransaction(0, common.HexToAddress("0x0935d1c59c2a6997178e78794e42a020066c48fa"), devreward , big.NewInt(50000), big.NewInt(10), nil))

Where did you get that number?



total block reward : 12 PIRL
Miner reward : 10 PIRL /block
Masternode & dev : 2 PIRL/block (no masternode at this time)

It is not a fee, it is a fund, and explained in detail in the last community announcement:

https://forum.pirl.io/t/pirl-community-announcement/29



It's not a fund until it's under a multi-sig wallet with full governance.  Until then call it what you will - it's a direct draw against the block reward into two wallets controlled only by the devs (at this time).

Still humming along with all pools.  HODL pulled out of the PIRL launch due to massive mismanagement so we will NOT be running a pool for that coin.

Hey guys i got an offer to buy d3 for 1623 with  14 days delivery do you think i get roi?
By my own calculations, the current earnings, before expenses, is 86$/day. Do your math.
This is by doing the math on the block chain and not by using online calculators.

Earnings are closer to $30 per day by my calculations.

What he said.  $30/day is current earnings/day.  It bounces between about $27 and $35 USD.

I recommend everyone take a walk through the source code - the developer forked the code from Ethereum four days before putting up his pre-announcement and at that point had only changed the readme and the network ID.

https://github.com/pirl/pirl/commits/master

So it's a straight copy/paste job.  They may have great plans for this thing, no one knows because there's no communication.  And if there are great plans they should have launched the blockchain with something unique rather than just a straight up ethereum clone.

info about supply ?

Unlimited supply, inflation pressures are high with 12 coins per block (miners get 10, devs get 2 until masternodes available, then masternodes get one, devs get one).  So simply put, 13 second block times with a 12 coin reaward comes out to the following:

So some quick math - it's 29,110,153 coins minted per year, of which miners get 24,258,460 and devs get 4,851,693 (maybe half that if the masternode piece comes to fruition).  Inflation is pretty straightforward:

Code:
Year Coins Minted Total Supply Inflation Dev Coins*
1 29,110,153 29,110,153                4,851,693
2 29,110,153 58,220,306 50.00% 9,703,386
3 29,110,153 87,330,459 33.33% 14,555,079
4 29,110,153 116,440,612 25.00% 19,406,772
5 29,110,153 145,550,765 20.00% 24,258,465
6 29,110,153 174,660,918 16.67% 29,110,158
7 29,110,153 203,771,071 14.29% 33,961,851
8 29,110,153 232,881,224 12.50% 38,813,544
9 29,110,153 261,991,377 11.11% 43,665,237

* May be half that if masternodes come to fruition


You guys can read into this as much as you want.  There's no monetary policy and unlimited supply and inflation.

Can you deeply explain what is the story about 10 + 2 coins going to dev with every block?
Some code sources?


Just look a lot the OP. Also back a couple pages where I post their wallets. Basically the devs are taking 16% of every block at this time.

Not sure how this was a "Fair Launch" considering the majority of the population wasn't targeted because of NO COMPILED WINDOWS wallet available for download. If the majority of the population don't know how to compile the windows wallet and the Dev did not provide one why is this FAIR?

Sure the linux wallet was made available for download 10-20 mins after launch, it wasn't even ready on the countdown...no comment from the Dev with that?

Personally I downloaded and compiled the win wallet, had my address but on principle alone stopped mining and won't be doing back, it's my choice to do so.

And the Dev being a masternode and keeping 2/12...well do the math on that percentage he is pocketing from a failed 'FAIR' launch.

The Dev is getting some abuse over this, I don't agree with all the crap he is getting but he hasn't spoken up about what went wrong and that says something about integrity.  

Good luck to everyone and who knows if this is a shit coin or not. All I know is there is a lot of angry miners out there and I don't blame them. Not FAIR at all. You dev need to learn statistically what fair is.

Only statistically my opinion.

Now back to mining EOT....

This was one of the most fair launches I think I could have imagined. An entire slack full of people who had no idea where to obtain a wallet until the last second. Then the wallet was released, compiled, for both Linux and with Docker instructions for Windows users in the seconds after the go-live.

This launch was fair, it gave every enterprising individual who REALLY wanted to mine a chance to earn that early access privilege. If you couldn't get the wallet working, it was your fault.

This launch required that people work for it and as we saw tonight, more people would rather insult the dev and call them a faggot :eyeroll: because they didn't get spoonfed. The miners not getting in on the mining right now simply didn't have the drive to get in or didn't have the aptitude to make it work. I'm not the smartest guy around but I know when I see a rabid collection of shitty people and damn they came out tonight.

Oh please, this wasn't a good/fair launch.  I agree it wasn't "unfair" because of the lack of a windows wallet (although that was a bait and switch as the announcement said there was one).  It's unfair because it's ALL a bait and switch.  Announcement says windows wallet was available.  Nope.  Announcement said block reward was 12 coins.  Nope it's 10/2.  Oh and that 2 goes to a pair of private wallets controlled by the developer:
0x3c3467f4e69e558467cdc5fb241b1b5d5906c36d
0xe6923aec35a0bcbaad4a045923cbd61c75eb65d8

There's no definition of how much of the 2 is devfee, nor what the masternode requirements are.  I asked why they didn't just wait until the masternode code was ready and then hardfork: "we don't hardfork".  WTF?  That's the whole POINT of hardforking - so you can add major functionality.

Crypto only works when there's transparency.  Right now they are banking on miners greed to be in "early" on a coin and they are minting themselves a ton of coins in the process.  Specifically 6,675 coins a DAY assuming the 13 second block time finally kicks in by diff.  

THOSE are the reasons it's 'unfair'.

Still waiting for dev explanation on pulling 16% off for masternodes (which don't exist) and dev fee.  No explanation of how much is devfee and how much is nodes.  No public definition of developer wallet.  No governance board of dev fee wallet.  Nothing.  The best I got was "we have to eat" (the developers).

I don't think this was intended as a scam but I do think they rushed it out without proper documentation, testing or lining up the community properly.

I'd urge everyone to use your hashpower elsewhere until they resolve these issues.

Completely unsatisfied with the last minute definition from the dev - it's not a 12 coin reward, it's a 10 coin reward with 2 coins reserved for masternodes (of which there aren't any) and developer.  No definition of the developer cut.  No developer wallet address published.

HODLPool is holding off on launching this coin as a pool until and unless the dev is more forthcoming with what's going on.

Guys we need to pay attention to this.  If 16% of reward (2/12 coins) is reserved for dev, this coin is dead.  I hope it's not true, someone please confirm?

It's true - from the github:

Time between block: 13 sec
total block reward : 12 PIRL
Miner reward : 10 PIRL / block
Masternode / dev : 2 PIRL / block
Network ID : 3125659152
rpc port : 6588
