Title: Megacoin mining Post by: petesays on June 12, 2013, 07:04:20 AM I can only post here, so here is where I will post.
I know everyone will say what a POS all the new alt coins are, but I try to grab a few of them just in case one might actually take off. On to megacoin. I downloaded the file from github and installed it. Started up and synced quickly. There is no pool that is working, that I can find. My question is, how do I GPU mine this Megacoin with CGminer. What do I connect to? What settings? Is there a tutorial for another coin that would apply to this one? Thank you in advance.

I have around 10KH/s but generally i find nothing when solo mining and while pooling, payments stops after initial period.

I have around 10KH/s but generally i find nothing when solo mining and while pooling, payments stops after initial period. I don't think 10 KH/s is good enough for solo mining. A single 7950 puts out 600 KH/s and people have farms of it. Title: Re: Megacoin mining Post by: petesays on June 12, 2013, 02:33:32 PM Hi, I think you need an ATI video card for cgminer to work. I have a 5870, thats why I want to know what settings to use for Megacoin and CGminer.

Like I said originally, I just want to grab some of these in case they become worth something in the future. Title: Re: Megacoin mining Post by: tstang on June 13, 2013, 12:41:06 PM HI,
I'm trying to mine Megacoin and downloaded the latest updated version of the client. I tried the older version but both also CANNOT sync to the network. Anyone can help maybe to add extra ( addnodes ) IP address? I try to do solo mining but the Megacoin client doesn't have mining button like Litecoin client. Any idea? Thanks in advance. I cannot post in the official thread, hence this is my last place to ask for help.
