Hello,

Basically I sent an exchange some pts, I got credited on their site, so it clearly transmitted. The transaction details even mentions it was broadcasted from 7 nodes. Despite this its been about two hours, and several other transactions have confirmed, but this one transaction still has the question mark sign and says 0/6 confirmations.

Thanks.

The slow confirmation times appear to be the result of one or more miners having adopted a policy of refusing to include more than one transaction per block.  See here:

http://btsblock.com/chain/ProtoShares

Ypool (the largest pool) appears to be one the bad actors.  If you compare block numbers from their stats page to the blockchain explorer, it looks like all of ypool's blocks are only including 1 transaction at most.

Thus, everyone trying to send PTS through the network is having to wait until someone else (such as the beeeeer pool) find a block, at which point a bunch of transactions finally get included in a block.

Guys,

any URL/Tutorials on how i can install/mine using Centos.

also how i can get this data

{
"blocks" : 1417,
"currentblocksize" : 1000,
"currentblocktx" : 0,
"difficulty" : 0.00000095,
"errors" : "",
"generate" : false,
"genproclimit" : 3,
"hashespermin" : 10.41940109,
"pooledtx" : 0,
"testnet" : false
}

i install Protoshares-qt on mac as well

TIA

I'm mining on YPool with the Protominer, and since yesterday (after they solved the problems) i'm getting only 0.01-ish PTS per day. Before the problems (5 days ago) I was getting about 1 whole PTS per day. Is this normal, is everyone getting similar results? Was there such a huge difficulty increase? Is there is something else wrong here?

we have to ask the question has PTS been grabbed hard by Robots ?

and what will this mean ?

usually though Robots mindlessly sell down the price - look at say quark -

i can see a little of this occurring on BTER , but it will be interesting to see what happens when it gets to another  exchange ?

How many coins per block, what is the coin limit if their is one and what is the rate of change of coin generation over time if there is one.

Any sources of info on this would be gratefully received.

Lol so true, and bytemaster can I get a comment on this robot issue,  do you personally think it is overstated and a lot of this is driven by  online servers ?

As per recent comments

{ tilts hat pushes mic towards bytemaster }

Also how does it feel to have had so much attention this early in the design of specifically PTS , any news on the progress with the algorithm ?

{ we report you decide }

{bytemaster rushes off in a tussle saying nothing }

where can i find the info on the next expected difficulty etc.?
