This is a super late response, but I ran into the exact same problem as you on Ubuntu 14.04 today so I thought I'd share. Built BerkeleyDB 4.8 from scratch which resulted in a successful compile but received the same error when trying to start the daemon.

Turns out a simple "apt-get install libdb4.8++" does the trick.

Re: [ANN][RIC] Riecoin, new prime numbers POW coin, CLIENT UPDATE v0.8.7 AVAILABLE

Update: Alright! Didn't finish the android app yet since it is still giving me feces load of problems, but I did finish and tested out Riecoin paper wallets. It was forked from bitaddress.org. We do need paper wallet designs for Riecoin though since I am using default bitcoin wallet designs (hopefully people can do this without needing a bounty Cheesy).

http://riecoinfoundation.org/PaperWallet/

Android App will come soon (about 2-3 weeks-ish).

Android mini-Apps will be released this coming Friday when I have time.

Good stuff northranger! A paper wallet design would be nice, perhaps someone would also be able to make a short video illustrating the whole process. Gotta keep your RIC secure  Smiley

Ok, the blockchain explorer is now fully synchronized!

  • The nonstandard transaction was an isolated case (search for "nonstandard" in the explorer to see it or check if other appear in the future)
  • The multisig address that was mentioned previously is now present, it was in the blocks after the nonstandard one.
  • I've added the two active pools I could find (YPool & UpCPU), though extraction stats are not very interesting right now as YPool just dominates with 95%.

Feel free to test and check things to see if everything else is okay!


Very nice implementation fairglu! Now we can finally see complete address contents. Quick question: does your explorer use the rpc interface or parse from block files?

I wonder how much it takes to maintain Riecoin price. I know dogecoin needs $2+ million to maintain its price.

2.5 minute blocks with a reward of 50 RIC means approximately 28800 new RIC a day. At the current price of ~$0.12 this means about $3456 is needed a day to sustain prices. However I don't think the handful of top whales mining the majority of coins are selling at the current price.

@gatra and @northranger79510:

Was the main technical PoW explanation removed from riecoin.org? I was about to reference it. Think it used to be after "What is new about Riecoin" and before "How is Riecoin different from Primecoin"

Check out this message which explains it nicely too: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=82213.msg906833#msg906833

You can then send funds into that 2-of-3 transaction using the normal sendtoaddress/sendmany RPC commands, or the GUI (or anything that's been updated to recognize multisig addresses).

That will create a multi signature transaction.

If you want to then SPEND the funds sent in that 2-of-3 transaction... that isn't implemented yet (well, if bitcoin has all 3 private keys in it's wallet then the funds will show up in the wallet's total balance and it may be selected to be spent like any other funds received by the wallet). "We" need to implement RPC calls to implement BIP 10 or something like it.

So it looks like maybe the spend isn't there yet?
I think it is, this explains how to spend: https://gist.github.com/gavinandresen/3966071
That was written much later than the post you linked.

Found this beta open source multisig address generator for BTC: https://coinb.in/multisig/

Perhaps someone could look into forking it for RIC. We don't even need to use it, it'd still be a valuable asset

YAY, more CRLF/CR/LF/Encoding/whatever bullshit... I give up. Please provide some unmangled sourcecode or at the very least, a 32 bit linux build.

I had faith in this coin from launch but it's just been a disappointment to me. Missed the boat due to, seemingly, dev's that take cross platform code, change a line or two (aka/ie, a new coin), and completely fuck up all code portability. Seems like there's only a handful of actual developers in the cryptocurrency community that know what cross-platform/portable means.

If you have sympathy or pity this fool, RAvAQ3TrUNWrG2DDgfuPvdhzaiXtg2wjEu

I'll pay with knowledge...

Install dos2unix or 'sed -e "s/^M$//"' (you'll need to ^V ^M to get the right string).

I understand that not everyone can code or can navigate a unix-ish CLI but is that the fault of a dev?

PS. My Verilog sucks but I don't blame the *coin ASIC miners for that.

bsunau7
heh, I actually did try dos2unix among other sed/perl/python/etc one-liners but all failed due to not mangling the sourcecode even further (and all in different ways, which I think backs up my higgledy-piggledy theory of encoding)

But as for the last I error I got
Code:
fatal error: gmp.h: No such file or director
That actually seems to be unrelated to the line termination/encoding issues. Stuck for a fix though (installed all lib-devs that look relevant, no joy)

I understand that not everyone can code or can navigate a unix-ish CLI but is that the fault of a dev?
Navagiated a CLI? No, but forking opersource crosspatform software and messing up one or both of those main features (yes, they are main features) is the fault of the/a dev

what i want for days to ask and actually i forget is:

Is this coin actually trying to prove wrong the Riemann hypothesis or it just finds primes?

And if not yet will those primes that it finds will actually help this cause somehow in the future and how?

cause i remember that this coin was about that but then something changed i think..maybe it was difficult to program or something...

As I understand it, Riecoin is not directly trying to prove/disprove the Riemann hypothesis. Rather it is seeking primes that will verify the Hardy-Littlewood k-tuple conjecture for k=6 (info: http://mathworld.wolfram.com/k-TupleConjecture.html)

User ysangkok on Reddit just posted this amazing block crawler with primes result listing for each block. Loving the WolframAlpha and SymPy Live primality tests.

https://darmstadt.goxadidi.dk/cgi-bin/block/block_crawler.py/

Note: Still needs transaction information from the blocks

Great list remi, I think you've covered all of the priority bases. We could make an infographic to send around, with a little tweaking of your video script. Also wouldn't hurt to get a comparison image up in this format: http://cdn.business2community.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/BitcoinvsLitecoin4.png

No sarcasm here at all. I think you're absolutely right in fact. I know when I check out new coins its the bitcointalk release first page, the last few pages, and the website. . . If it looks good I'll check it out further. Not sure why the first page here isn't a top priority.



goin2mars started complaining just a few hours ago about the un-updated announcement.  Since then, Gatra has already added a ton of current info to the OP.

It was a direct PM to the dev from me, influenced by suggestions here, addressing an updated [ANN] that got the ball rolling. Gatra is super responsive and willing to guide/direct community members if needed. In the future, I encourage everyone to shoot him a message if there is something he can do (within his power) to help the coin. Anything from assistance understanding the source code to updates/urgent announcements.

On another note, a wiki would be another great next addition to have. Pages describing the primesr method and the protocol specification would be an immediate priority. Anyone able to host?

Yeah that's cool that someone made an alt website. But the main thread is on this site right here:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=67.0

No matter what anyone says. This is where people feel comfortable, and where they're looking to speculate. Not some alt site that requires effort to go to and make another account at just to post. Stop pulling traffic out of this thread, it looks terrible when you're redirecting people every two posts to a site for a coin that's two weeks old. Let it grow before you change things like that.

I've seen this crap with other coins. Every single time it splits the already faltering traffic and the coin fails even harder because everyone that thinks they're doing something good are just burying this shit in some obscure website like the one you listed and that's the end.



I completely agree.  As someone who owns greater than 10 different alts, I refuse to check the graveyard that is most alt's message boards just to hear the latest updates.  My personal preference is if OP could update the ANN with the most relevant updates, e.g., announce that the there's a wallet update and that it fixed the transaction malleability bug there.

The way I see it, most of a legitimate alt's productive development discussion goes on at the external forum, rather than here. It happened with PPC, and it's happening with RIC. I, the dev, and other active members post here just as regularly. It's just a much more organized location for bounties. Definitely agree that gatra could keep the [ANN] and OP updated with progress, will contact him about that.

if network was more diverse much higher prices would be justified. get more people to the pie and get this on its legs and try not to loose an inch of momentum while you have it, thanks.  
YPOOL is a great pool, but  RIC mining is too centralized - YPOOL controls greater than 97% of the mining power.
only pool is ypool Huh wtf  Roll Eyes
please contact beeeeer we need >1 pool

Seems like the community has spoken, this needs a bounty.

Hey Dev,

Can you contact Gliss to post Riecoin on coinmarketcap.com?

Riecoin needs a static site that displays total supply first. This will come when a block explorer comes on, which I and another user are still working on

Hey guys...check out a great introduction video to Riecoin one of Riecoin's community member made!
https://vimeo.com/87464754
You did a great job with that video! You should reupload it on youtube so more people see it.

Agreed, YouTube format would allow easier website embedding, and might just get some hits from people browsing related videos

Hey awesome thanks, glad to have made it for a great coin! Feel free to use wherever, for whatever. I was just coming here to post the vid myself.

Go Riecoin!

Excellent video remi! The script really came out nicely. Let's try to get it onto Facebook, Twitter, and the official site next.
