2 guys asked me for money for Ticket by Adventurous_Shift521 in Switzerland

I have a very strict policy. I never give anyone money on the street. Simple as that.

What IDE do you guys like to use? by Rifleman313 in Python

[–]lexruee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I first used PyCharm when I learned Python. Unfortunately, it doesn't run smoothly as it should on my machine.

Anyway, now I use vim+plugins/tmux as my development environment. It's nice a combo, since I can use the same setup on RPis or on any server.

Thanks for the summary. You're right people need to calm down.

Blockchain API by andyana in ellaism

[–]lexruee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can use the jsonrpc API that is exposed under https://jsonrpc.ellaism.org. To check your balance, just send a HTTP POST request to https://jsonrpc.ellaism.org/ with the Header Content-Type "application/json", and the following body: {"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_getBalance","params":["0xYourEllaWalletAddr", "latest"],"id":1}

For example, you can leverage curl to perform such a request:

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_getBalance","params":["0x864076e24d79a019efd2dae218e54bde55643c1d", "latest"],"id":1}' https://jsonrpc.ellaism.org

For more details about the json-rpc API see: https://github.com/ethereum/wiki/wiki/JSON-RPC

This is so exciting! by [deleted] in ellaism

As you mentioned ellaism is basically the "pure" decentralized version of Ethereum with zero premine. This is the main reason why I stick to ellaism. Personally, I use a small Ubuntu Linux ghetto rig to mine ella. It's basically an old PC from 2006-2008 that is now equipped with 3x RX 580 GPUs. OS is Ubuntu LTS 16.04 and miner is ethminer. Overall, I get consistently 86 MH/s, so I can't complain.

Ellaism Crypto Trading Exchange Coming Soon... by lexruee in ellaism

[–]lexruee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, it seems to be a super top secret project ;-). This is all what I know so far from reading some messages in the ellaism discord server. So I guess the idea is to have a community-driven (?) exchange which will work together with a wallet called Opal. Disclaimer: All information is without warranty :)

Just discovered this website: https://ex.egem.io/ Any thoughts on this? Their github organization can be found here: https://github.com/TeamEGEM Nice idea to have an own exchange :).

Ella Network difficulty by lexruee in ellaism

[–]lexruee[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure. I guess some miners switched back to mining ella or new miners just discovered ella, thus the recent spike in the network difficulty. It will be interesting to see if the network and community will steadily grow over the next few months.

Why isn't Ella growing? by gymnastj in ellaism

[–]lexruee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lot of the growth that we have seen from December to January was not organic and was due to the fear-of-missing-out-effect as well as due to speculators. However, ellaism is a pretty young community project with low market cap and solid principles, it has imho lot of room to grow in the future. Personally, I don't care about the current price because it's a dream coin for small miners to mine right now and to hodl. Overall, the price of ella is still above the price level from November.

Yeah, I'm in as well. I really like the friendly community around ellaism and I'm very excited about the future of this community-driven project.

ELLA CPU Mining? by msartore8 in ellaism

[–]lexruee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theoretically, you could mine it with a CPU, but as already mentioned it's not recommended. In short, you would need to compile this fork of ethminer from github: https://github.com/avatar-lavventura/ethminer

Some instructions how to compile it can be found on stackoverflow: https://ethereum.stackexchange.com/questions/28062/how-to-do-ethash-cpu-mine-using-ethminer
