As to me, there is no cream to speak about... I don't know about masternodes (assume they are earning well), but staking does not give me any reward at all - not a single stake for several days with wallet opened 24/7 and well-connected. The amount is not big (less than 1000 HLM), so I don't expect much, but zero reward (just one orphan stake during 5-6 days) show that earning estimations on the explorer website are completely false (they suggest 3-10 HLM daily by staking with my amount)..

I assume all rewards are going to big stakers, with smaller ones getting nothing - nowhere near values shown at calculator. Bad implementation of PoS, or bug in calculator?

EDIT: just checked once again - bingo!!! I got one stake finally! 2.5 HLM after staking for 5-6 days. Still pathetic, compared to calculator values...

Hello.

Is this coin actively developed in the background or it is a dead coin?
What could we use it for after the snapshot date?
Is there any future for SPR?

Gab

If I keep getting a "sick" or "dead" GPU, but the others work fine, is that indicative of having too high intensity for SPR mining? Or can it be anything? I seem to be getting it at least once per day.

I wonder how many coins 1.8mh will generate?  thx

Yes, I have the same if I try to mine on any pool.
But either pool or solo mining doesn't give any result



Thanks for your reply.
So I will get paid only if I find a block ? And min payout is 4.8 SPR, not less ?
I mean I will not get saying 2 SPR for 4 hours of mining for example ?

In some reason GPU solo mining is not giving me any coins.
I did exactly like described above but few hours of mining didn't bring me even 0.0001 spr. It's zero all the time.
Not sure what's wrong.

Could someone tell me how much time you need to wait during solo mining so to get anything (above zero) ?
My hashrate is about 1.7 MH.

SPR is close to death,price is dropping day by day.

what is the hashrate on a 390? just curious, if it is on par with nvidia or slower

Ofcourse, ofcourse.

No, forget everything I said, I need to use my brain more.

It's just a stupid error!  

There was still an old checkpoint set in the code that expected block nr. 500 to be a certain hash. (goes back to mr. spread)
I forgot to remove those checkpoints, aahrg! And that's what created this mess.

Wait, I'll look over everything once more, and restart a new chain.

yeah, I think we already have atleast 2 forks because of low participation (I've seen one stuck at block 500, and the other at 782), lol

Wait guys, I need to create a new blockchain and spread it over 2 servers and hardcode them into the wallet, or else this might repeat itself.

I might also add a checkpoint or two.

Please stop mining for now.

PS: It's also cool to learn about such things in realworld experiments, so thanks alot to whoever spends a few CPU cycles for this. Awesome!

Just created an account to pipe in here... I think you guys are woefully under-explaining the Microsoft thing. It's very simple: they'll offer pre-packaged SPR-enabled cloud instances if an application is submitted and the code is vetted as safe for their platform. Nothing about this "moves" the SpreadCoin network. Nothing about this changes SpreadCoin. Nothing about this forces or even persuades SPR users to start using Azure services *unless* they, of their own volition, find it convenient to assist in the operation or development of SPR-related services.

Ethereum, Factom, Emercoin and several more coins have been accepted to this platform. None of them are in a "partnership" with Microsoft. None of them have "moved" to the Microsoft network. None of them have changed any of their code, governance, licensing, funding, or anything else about their project. I honestly have no idea where the concept of moving the SpreadCoin network to a centralized partnership with overlord Microsoft comes from, but it's waaaaaaaay off the mark of what's actually been offered/implemented. Having not gone through the application myself, I can't be sure, but from what I can infer from the experiences of other projects, the vetting process seems to be self-contained to a code-safety review within Microsoft.

As for why it would be advantageous (aside from the price/investor confidence/growth), I believe this is a completely benign program to participate in that doesn't threaten decentralization, arguably increasing it through easier, immediate, and reliable end-user access to SPR services and development. If PayPal said they're accepting SpreadCoin to process payments and SPR doesn't have to change anything about themselves - would you consider that centralization? Would you be wary of such an integration? This isn't the same level, but it's similar. You have a platform with major exposure, solid support, and in this case, a particularly forward-thinking team behind it for coming from such a corporate behemoth (who else is doing Blockchain-as-a-Service, seriously?) and they've read the SPR whitepaper and would be happy to help support the SPR community and ecosystem by offering it on their experimental and forward-thinking BaaS platform.

I honestly don't see how this can be perceived as a threat or a dangerous thing. If the service sucks, no one uses it. If Azure makes no money off of BaaS, it ceases to be offered. If they offer reliable service for an attractive price, enabling developers and users to access SPR more easily or more economically, then all this is, is decentralized infrastructure (you do know what Azure is, right?) building around SpreadCoin. Frankly I'm stunned that the de facto project lead on SPR is so under-informed on his main competitors/counterparts, and what's happening in this business space. Not trying to be a dick, but you probably need some more hands on deck with various strengths and knowledge. Beyond the code. And then you need to seriously consider to their advice, the hard part.


I've been with spread since Mr. Spread launched it, btw, had an old account here that I deleted last year, used to be a "Hero" - some would probably remember me. Anyway, I stop in every month or so just to see what's happening, and I had to clarify this Microsoft misunderstanding going on. Good luck with whatever direction the project goes, still have coins in the vault and watching curiously.

FUCKING TERRORIST SUPPORTER

Let georgem tell us all of his opinion on the terrorists ISIS/ISIL and their actions around the world.... Killing , raping, beheading WTF.

@georgem really, with that repugnant flag/ideology on display? 

Distance yourself fast!

I'm totally with you on that piece of shit, I thought he was just a bad troll? We all should report him.

Such a shame to see you go.

The fall of Spreadcoin...It was ok'ish while it lasted  

this is more than 100 coin per day with a single 970, really nice profit
