Kann leider keine merits verschicken, wollte mich aber trotzdem hiermit für deinen heads-up bedanken (hätte das wohl verpasst) und erwähnen, dass ich ebenfalls der Meinung bin, dass die Antworten richtig sind (bis auf den total supply - da muss man wohl die aktuellste Zahl zeitnah von CMC holen).


Interessant. Habe jetzt nicht auf die Position geachtet, aber die Antworten waren diesesmal ja eindeutig in den 4 Lernvideos.

Das mit dem total supply kann dir eigentlich egal sein, solange du es "live" von CMC kopiert und im Quiz eingefügt hast. Ich habe auch 56.448.197 angegeben.
Falls das nicht stimmen sollte, ist das nicht dein Fehler und du kannst in dem Fall vermutlich eh nix dagegen machen, falls dir das als Falschantwort angerechnet wird.

I actually didn't. I tried 48h solo with about 2-3TB but no tokens ended up in my wallet. I don't know what the problem was.
You probably should look into pool mining MASS, maybe that works.
Apart from that, the problems I stated earlier made me quit caring about MASS.



I don't see why you would need guidance. Just install the client and use it, there's not much to understand. If you have a datacenter, you could already have enough space to mine solo.
Can't tell you about pool mining tho as I never tried it.

Downloaded Verus Desktop App and tried to bootstrap the blockchain, but sha256 file is not found, so it doesn't verify.
Can't insert my existing Verus address anywhere in the desktop app.
Wiki is very overwhelming and not helpful.

Not a noob-friendly project at all...

... damals in den frühen Anfangszeiten zu faul war um einen älteren ATI(?) Treiber zu installieren und deswegen die Hashrate vielleicht halb so hoch war als sie hätte sein können und man deswegen entschieden hat, dass es das Ganze mit dem Treiber-Herumgefummel nicht wert ist und aufgehört hat sich mit BTC mining zu beschäftigen 

Die paar Hashes damals, die ich an einem Nachmittag(!) gemined habe (leider gibts die Pools nicht mehr), wären heute wohl auch 1-200 wert So reihe ich mich eben auch in die Reihe der "Hätte, hätte"- Millionäre ein 



gibt nix besseres, als an Heiligabend das Portfolio zu pflegen

Version 2, just about a month ago.


Sorry, my mistake. I didn't mean PoC specifically (like Burstcoin), but mining with hard drive.  Examples are DENET, StorJ and Filecoin.

But I don't know if they're sh!tcoins, so do your own research. For example, I think StorJ is already not profitable anymore, like MASS.

I for my part am curious about the DENET launch this month.

Can't confirm that unfortunately. At least the windows miner is incredibly buggy and slow.

Buggy:
- Try to plot a drive with more than 1TB. It will hang/freeze. Tried on a recent Ryzen CPU with 32GB RAM, > 24h.
- If you manage to start plotting < 1TB space, your already plotted 2GB chunks "mine" according to their status, but nothing comes to your wallet. Tried 3 days with increasing chunks.
- You can't "delete" chunks or stop the plotting process and start in a new directory / drive unless you delete the config folder somewhere in AppData.

Slow:
- Plotting the drive is slow af. I'd need a whole week to fill 4TB.


Additionally, I heard mining is not even profitable anymore, even with a fair amount of TB. Maybe few cents in a month.
AFAIK, there are other PoC coins which look more interesting, for me at least.

I don't want to take a cr*p on MASS here, the concept is not bad. However, I wasted time on this project and if you don't like what I've described, you might not.

Do you know how long your pw was? Maybe a range at least?

@KenYou,

do you know how I can see the diamonds I mined? If I wanted to send a diamond from my wallet to someone else, I'd need the 6-char name of that diamond, right?
When I look up my address on the block explorer, there is "Miner Diamond: 1" but no diamond name or any information about it.
My miner(s) aren't online 24/7, so I can't look at the solo miner log anymore.

Bin mir ziemlich sicher, dass da manche Antworten falsch sind. Habe mir extra bei jeder Frage das entsprechende Video mehrmals angeschaut und teilweise noch danach gegoogelt.
Falls ich falsch liege und der Gentleman im Video richtig, rip @ meine verschwendete Lebenszeit

Hi, sorry for asking a noob question. This is the first time I used a telegram bot, so I got a rather general question about it.
How does the wallet staking work? I guess the DNET / DFILE tokens are ethereum compatible, so with "wallet" you mean an actual ethereum address, not the "wallet" inside the bot, right?
So first I have to withdraw any DNET / DFILE to an actual mainstream wallet like metamask? What am I doing next?

If i'm interpreting this right, you're getting 1 KH/s with 2 Xeons? Dude, that's insanely bad. My 8th Gen i5 NUC can do almost 2 KH/s at 4 threads using ~40-50W total system power (depends on thermal situation/throttling).

Additionally, you should look at your CPU cache and adjust your mining threads respectively. RandomX needs 2mb L3 cache per thread, so since you got 20mb per Xeon, you should aim for 10 threads per CPU. Everything above is highly inefficient and decreases your hashrate per thread, up to the point that it might not even providing any additional hashrate at all.

I use Brave some time now, and the browser itself is pretty nice because of its well working ad blocking feature and chrome base (being compatible with chrome addon store).

However, I'm just disappointed by BAT, and I'm gonna tell you why.
Back when I started using Brave 2 years ago, the rewards were high and the ads were low.
Today (approx. the last 12 months), it's the other way round. I now get about 2 BAT per month by browsing more than ever and getting more ads than before.
To get that into perspective, at the beginning of my Brave usage there were months where I claimed 30+ BAT and only got a very moderate amount of ads.
The Ad frequency (up to 5x per hour) is unchanged since my first usage.

Other, actually much more concerning things than the ad/reward system about BAT are
1. the "strange" behavior of the wallet.
    - My wallets were wiped to zero 2x, both on Windows and on Android on different times. The missing BAT are nowhere to be found until today (no, I do not have auto-contribute or auto-tipping enabled).
    - Claiming often fails and BATs aren't credited, only the claim date gets forwarded one month (yes, I always have the browsers updated to their newest versions).
      Reddit admins/Devs say the rewards are still added to your wallet later, but I didn't see any of the failed BAT for months now.
    - Up to a certain time you could (and were urged to) see and backup your mnemonic seed for your wallet. It's gone. Instead, you don't have any control over your wallet anymore (for example backing up/restoring on another device),
      but you're forced to connect with Uphold (which I never did. A calm "nope" to that business practice at this point). That's a BIG step in the wrong direction.
2. all of the above problems mentioned on the official reddit either get you insignificantly put off, ignored or banned. I wasn't the only one pointing out these problems over there, so I guess the fault is not on my end.

I'll continue to use the browser, but the BAT-part is just too buggy/unreliable/annoying for my taste.

Question1:
It's not official pool.

Question2:
It depends on how much HAC / how many blocks that miner has mined.

First there's the standard blockchain confirmation, just like Bitcoin. That takes 5 min max.

Then, there's the pool settlement software that handles how and when to pay out miners.

The WP says this: At present, the rules for mining pool settlement and automatic coinage are: every block excavated counts a statistical period, and settles once, and the mined coins are distributed in proportion to all participating computing power in the period. If there are more than 2 reward shares, 10 blocks will be credited into the account in 50 minutes, 0.2 blocks will be credited in 8.3 hours, and 0.02 blocks will be credited in 3.5 days.

The more blocks that you mine the faster your coins will get confirmed and paid out.

Question3:
delete “hacash_mainnet_data”

1) Thanks for that clarification! I found is that the wallet creation page of hacashpool (wallet*hacashpool*com) is NOT secure, but https://wallet.hacash.org/ is. They look almost the same, so watch out! Don't know how that affects the credibility of hacashpool 
2) I got paid, seems like payment is carried out 1x per day by the pool
3) I already did, no difference, it just starts at block 1 again (tried to mine HAC and HACD solo). I seem to solve already mined blocks and get 0 HAC for it before moving to the next already mined block. Problem is, increasing block number = longer time to solve because of difficulty, so my PC needs more and more time to catch up to the actual block (needed an hour to get to 3,000, actual height is ~170,000) because it solves them instead of downloading the blockchain. In a video tutorial on vimeo (https://vimeo.com/459491570) the blockchain gets downloaded first. This is not the case on my 2 independend computers (Windows and Ubuntu). I'm using the newest releases from GitHub.

My 4TB HDD needs approx 7 days to fill and 1) the chain isn't updating while plotting and 2) I'm mining nothing.

I guess this coin has become already unprofitable for solo? Following this thread, semms that even pool mining is bad nowadays (plus, I won't provide my phone number for pool mining )

Might aswell look into STORJ with my capacity, but there you'll need good internet bandwith

This must be a joke. You got a E5-2683 v4, which can only be run with DDR4 RAM.

The lowest DIMM of DDR4 I've found has 2GB, so having only 256MB DDR4 in a machine isn't even possible.

Something is very odd here. I mined few hours HAC on the (official?) pool "hacashpool".

On the pool, one moment I had over 92 million :240 HAC unconfirmed, but when I came back half an hour later, it had shrunk to 2 million :240 HAC unconfirmed (Nope, it didn't just become comfirmed and consequently vanished from the unconfirmed column).
Where did that amount go?
Also, my Ryzen 2700X has a significantly lower hashrate than my i5-8159U, which is very unlikely, too.

Either this is a scam or very buggy. Either way, afaik HAC / HACD can't even be traded for other currencies at this time, so currently these coins are worthless anyway.

I think I'll rather use my CPU power on XMR, where I can be sure to get coins which can be exchanged for actual money.
