I can't mine....

    @FaithPlatform Problem in plot's number.
    You have address BURST-Y4YE-AHSN-P36K-D5ZHY (ID 13780983265727810508) - you make reward assignment right, BUT you have plots starting 11755270704155985448_.........
    ID 11755270704155985448 - it's BURST-E3KA-FKHW-8W2S-CWSA8 - do you have password from this address?
    if not - you need replot all these files



  • No I don't anymore, so plots are assigned to accounts?



  • @FaithPlatform yes... the first number in your plot name is the account id! You need to delete the file with the wrong account id number and replot with the right one...



  • :/ I see that now. I am replotting and about 30 percent done at a avg of 2657 nonces/minute. It sucks plotting but if all goes well I have a couple hundred TB of storage to plot. I am doing a 500 GB test to figure everything out with Burst.

    @FaithPlatform If you have that large an available plot, learning more about theother available plotting/mining tools would be a good idea. We can help you with it, but using the GPU Plotter for example will pretty much give you an instant 10X performance in nonce plotting. It does require getting dirty with the command line, and understanding the relationships between nonce starting, number of nonces, stagger etc. But it's really only the effective way you'll plot that much.



  • I would love to learn to use the GPU plotter and I also love getting dirty in command line, the very basic tutorial that I have seen isn't very straight forward and the default plotter attached to the wallet crapped out at 72% and screwed me so i am re plotting with only 210 GB. To be exact I have 673 TB that I could plot but obviously I am not going to plot all of that when all I am currently trying to do is start mining to see how it is but the way I am looking at it is according to burstcoin.biz I would be making an extra 952$ for virtually nothing and with that money I could expand rapidly witch sounds really good to me.

    @FaithPlatform Is all this storage linked to a single host, or a farm ? too late to help you tonight, but I'll be around tomorrow and we can discuss how you plot/mine that much.



  • Single host I guess. It WAS going to be a Media Server I built for at home, don't ask why so much storage I was building it to be a PB then I started using Kodi and well... Don't need that kind of storage for streaming. Anyway now I have 4 filled server racks of storage drives with no use. So lets turn them into a income!

    @FaithPlatform To be able to plot/mine that much on a single host is going to be difficult, but doable. What GPU's do you have in the host ?



  • I would have to check, I'll update in the morning my fiance would kill me if I fettle in the closet at 1 AM, I don't think it is all that much though because it is just a media host. A upgrade might be recommend if I want to plot within a month, the CPU's are better then the GPU's because the encoding of files that was being used was CPU intensive. What I am plotting on currently is my Personal Gaming Build, honestly I was getting into BTC and altcoin mining then I stumbled on BurstCoin and nearly s#@t myself because no ASIC's are required and no money would need to be spent at the moment on my part.
