Ethereum+: A Peer-to-Peer Digital Asset System

Abstract. The Ethereum+ network is a peer-to-peer digital asset system that enables direct exchange of value without going through a central party. A zero compromise blockchain with the inherent parallelism and performance characteristics of an unspent transaction output (UTXO) based architecture and the Turing Complete programming of Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) architectures. This is a breakthrough smart contracting and digital asset system based on SHA512 proof-of-work, designed for extreme throughput and scale.


What is Ethereum+?

Ethereum+ is a revolutionary network designed to solve the problems with all existing blockchains in terms of scale, parallelism and Turing Complete programming. Ethereum+ is a peer-to-peer digital asset system that enables direct exchange of value without going through a central party. Similarly to Bitcoin, the Ethereum+ network requires minimal structure, and timestamps transactions into an ongoing hash-based chain of proof-of-work (SHA512/256). We introduce two novel breakthrough techniques to validate digital assets: unique references and a general purpose induction proof system both of which operate in constant O(1) time and space. It is possible to compose outputs in any manner, without compromising the inherent parallelism and performance characteristics of an unspent transaction output (UTXO) based architecture. Therefore, users can leave and rejoin the Ethereum+ network at will and be assured of the integrity and authenticity of their digital assets.



Zero Compromise Open-source Blockchain: Hybrid Account + UTXO Smart Contracts

The world's first breakthrough hybrid Account + UTXO based architecture engineered for massive layer one (L1) on-chain scaling and Turing Complete smart contracts.Ethereum+ offers the benefits of a UTXO blockchain along with the advanced capabilities of EVM compatible blockchains, but with none of the downsies.

"I had to write all the code before I could convince myself that I could solve every problem, then I wrote the paper. I think I will be able to release the code sooner than I could write a detailed spec." - Satoshi Nakamoto

In the same spirit of Satoshi Nakamoto's launch of Bitcoin, we released a fully operational and software development stack on Day 1, before even writing the White Paper. We wanted to be convinced that the revolutionary and breakthrough system worked before writing about it. No waiting, no limitations, just a scalable blockchain node and toolkit to build your dreams today.

Found it. Here is how I'm doing it now:

WINDOWS POWERSHELL SCRIPT:

$secpasswd = ConvertTo-SecureString "LINUXPASSWORD" -AsPlainText -Force
$Credentials = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential("LINUXUSERNAME", $secpasswd)

$SessionID = New-SSHSession -ComputerName 'LINUXIPADDRESS' -Credential $Credentials
$o = (Invoke-SSHCommand -Index $sessionid.sessionid -Command 'echo "{\"command\":\"devs\"}" | nc localhost 4029' | ConvertTo-Json) | ConvertFrom-Json
echo ($o.Output | ConvertFrom-Json).DEVS | ConvertTo-Json

Can you please let me know how to get the stats remotely when teamredminer is hashing?

Can you please give me a curl or a windows shell command or postman request to get the stats please?

FREE Mining Rig Monitor - customize to your needs with source code in github
by
tcsekhar
on 11/12/2020, 14:55:41 UTC
I needed something free which will monitor my rig, restart the node if there are any issues with the GPUs or hash rate is down etc, and also show me current progress and GPU level status including heat and hashing rate. I couldn't find anything which did all this for free.

There was one which I found on this forum and was using it for a while - https://github.com/rodneymo/rig-monitor but it was unstable - would crash every now and then and wasn't doing everything I wanted. Also, after Claymore Dual Miner stopped working, I had to look for something else to replace this. Hence I wrote my own code and shared it on Github.

I used PowerShell, SQL Server and Grafana. All of these can also be installed on a 64bit Linux today. And all of these are available for FREE to use as long it's for personal use. I haven't developed in Powershell ever and wrote this in a day - so ignore any flaws you may find - but it does work exactly how I wanted it to Smiley. I have good experience with SQL server and hence chose it for my data store. Hope it helps someone else too.

https://github.com/Tcsekhar74/SimplePowerShellEtherMiningRigMonitor/

Feel free to use it. Tweak as you need to fit your personal needs.

Here is what I have:
Linux based linux mining nodes with 13GPUs each - mining with LOLMiner
TP-Link HS110 Energy Monitoring WiFi plugs
Windows PC with SQL Express and Grafana installed, and a scheduled job which runs my powershell script every minute

Re: [NEW] rig-monitor 3.2 now incl. support cgminer, Xmrig, Yiimp and Revive devices

After almost 1 year hiatus I am resuming the development of rig-monitor.

I have not done any extensive testing yet, but I notice the coinmarketcap API has changed so the profitability and market data are not working.

Anything else not working, miners, pools, etc....?



First of all, thank you for your time and effort on creating this beautiful tool to monitor mining rigs. Few things that I noticed:

1. As you have found out, the coin price is not getting updated
2. It will be nice if you could capture and add power usage stats to the TP-Link HS110 plugs on the Graphana dashboard

Thanks.

Buy and send Bitcoin to foreign citizen after receiving USD bank wire transfer
by

on 31/07/2018, 11:09:51 UTC
Few of my friends in Asia wants me to buy Bitcoin and transfer into their Bitcoin wallets. As they are not tech savy and dont have trusted tech people near them, they dont want to risk their money. Is it legal for me to receive USD wire transfers through my bank from them, purchase Bitcoin from Coinbase and ship them the hardware wallet with Bitcoins that I bought?

If it is legal, are there any tax implications? Are there any limits on how much can be transacted?

Thanks.

Re: Profitability in mining - too marginal - difficulty up, rewards and price down
by

I was switching to the most profitable coin every time the profitability changes, and used to convert that coin into either BTC or ETH. Still, ETH is the most profitable coin for the past few weeks and there is nothing close to it.

Switching to coins which are less difficult to mine does hurt you in the long run. Assuming that you love the less difficult to mine coin, instead of mining it, you are better off mining the best profitable currency and convert that to the coin you love - that way you get the most from your mining.

Re: Profitability in mining - too marginal - difficulty up, rewards and price down

My electricity price comes to around $0.11/kWh. Even if few weak hands sell off their rigs, the new comers will still use those rigs to mine. I don't see the # of GPUs mining to reduce in number - but rather they are increasing drastically. Look at the hashrate chart from Jan this year to now.

I don't see the difficulty going down either. But, I'm sure when the electricity charge equals or goes beyond the value of coins rewarded, few miners may stop mining. But even then, most of the heavy hitters are not bothered about the current price levels and are accumulating the coins. That is becoming a problem for small scale miners unfortunately.

I really hope ETH stays POW and they implement something similar to Charlie Lee's vision where miners set their own price for taking up transactions, and pick up only the transactions which fulfills the price criteria.

Profitability in mining - too marginal - difficulty up, rewards and price down
by

I have a decent size ether mining farm. Half of it built around a year ago, half of it built couple of months ago. With the card prices tripling or quadrupling in the recent months, the difficulty going up, rewards going down and the price of Ether going down, I'm hardly making any money. Recouping my new investment at this pace will take more than a year. And if at all Casper goes live, there will be couple of million GPUs becoming available to mine other ALT coins and thus reducing the profitability on all ALT coins even further.

Is anyone in the same boat as me? What are your thoughts on mining and the DAG increases, and the overall profitability?

Re: [ANN][ZEN] ZenCash: Private, Secure, Resilient CryptoCurrency with zk-SNARKs
by
tcsekhar
on 19/10/2017, 17:05:58 UTC
I have a 8 x [RX480 8G GPU] rig and mining works fine when I'm mining Monero, or Ethereum. But when I switch to ZenCash, the rig crashes in the first 3 minutes.

All the cards were modded with atiflash - copying the 1750 timing strap to the 2000 strap. Is this the cause for it to fail? Should I revert back the mod on the card bios?

Can you please help?
