Title: Yacoin client stopped mining Post by: ongle on May 12, 2013, 04:19:08 PM Any idea why the Yacoin client would stop mining. Only thing that changed would be I encrypted the wallet, does that impact the client's ability to mine?

Title: Re: Yacoin client stopped mining Post by: eule on May 12, 2013, 04:20:32 PM I read in the yacoin thread that you can't mine with encrypted wallets. Not sure if this is true using minerd.

Not sure if this is true using minerd. OK, thanks. Searched for that but didn't find it. The diff was getting too high anyways.

Can I use encrypted wallet? Yes. Encrypted wallet is supported but there is some difference from Bitcoin. If you use an encrypted wallet you would have to unlock the wallet in order to mint blocks. For user security we added an option to the walletpassphrase RPC command to mint block only. In this unlocked wallet mode, one cannot send transaction through RPC command thus providing additional security to the wallet if hacker gains access via RPC. |
