As promised the new client has been updated with the latest checkpoints to ensure the network is secure for the next stage of bytecoin development. We have now finished adding in merged mining to bytecoin thanks to the help of DoubleC's work on bitcoin merged mining.

Currently there are no public pools running merged mining compatible chains although we are waiting to get hold of a debian based vps to get one up. The merged mining client is currently in beta testing stages and will be released to the public when this is complete. For anyone interested please pm me for a copy

Also please could you donate whatever you can to the BTE dev fund  so we can encourage further adoption to other sites

BTE: 8dyyfkeNF3529VLqRbRKfZ4kV1zf7sK1Vw
BTC: 1Dd18fCRCFztoY1jGFPq7QTmpXSNS8AWck
LTC:  LbMwmQbyYrfJ5ZyRGFhizPjd98C1ct1ugu

If you do donate please could you post in here how much and what address so we can add it to the public ledger

EDIT: we now have a vps to begin the next stage of the merged mining program. Anyone here who is interested in a pool that will allow merged mining of various sha based coins please pm me or add me on skype a4m3db0d1w4l4

To merge mine here is our initial thoughts.It will likely be a p2pool or standard mmcfe/pushpool/stratum based implementation or one of each.

Miners will get auto payouts of BTC

Around once a day or 2 we will send users the rest of their payments from merged mined coins based on their chosen option which will be:
a) conversion of all apart from BTE to BTC then sent to user
b) sending of each individual coin to the users address for each coin
c) a mix and match between conversion and sending to the users address's

thanks bro much appreciates with get the ledger up tomorrow

100 bte donation

 :o  I am very interested  :o

around 20 people have asked for the new client. Beta testing slots are now closed. Could you guys try it out then get back to me with an update on what you think of the client and the ability to merge mine. Also what you guys would think of a huge pool offering the merge mining, of the following coins together:

BTC
BTE
IXC
I0C
GG
NMC
DVC

if the general consensus is to go ahead and people are willing to donate towards the fund to hire some dedicated servers, the plans will go ahead and we will launch the pool

Pool Testers Wanted Updated First Post!

bump!

im interested in helping.


Thanks.

Ahmed, unless you're trying to make money by running a pool, it's not worth it probably even if you are.

naa its not, ive been running pools under crypto-expert so knowledge isnt a problem. Im basically running it to test several ideas to do with bytecoin and to increase its hashrate

Oh ok we need to get doublec on board.

yeah he said hed like something like 50BTC to get onboard

Wtf

not sure if it was a joke or what tho, ill try and find the post

Ok it would be dumb not to join

Just to update, the current patch is not what we were looking for. It makes the Bytecoin chain master and allows other merged mined coins to be mined along side it. What we really need is to be able to use Bitcoin as the master chain, and patch Bytecoin so that it can be merged mined like NMC, IXC, etc..

My pool continues to run strictly for Bytecoin at this point, and if it appears it will be some time before the right patch is available I might try adding merged mining of other coins under Bytecoin until such a patch is available.

Because some can't be slaves like bte at this time.

I am interested in pool mineing

yep they can and im working on another client using a different code base as we speak, i should have a release copy in the following few days, however please note THIS WILL REQUIRE A HARD FORK. once the hard fork is done, the aim is to get a bytecoin merged mining pool up and hopefully get it added onto bitparking which i have spoken to doublec about adding.

wouldn't mind giving this a try if you still have slots open :)

They could become slaves after a fork which I'm waiting for bte to do.

im interest... can i test it too?

ahmed.. im interested for the beta test...

heres an update for you guys, were doing a rebase of the bytecoin software and preparing a hard fork. some more good information is doublec has kindly agreed to add bytecoin onto his merged mining pool for you guys which should allow us to concentrate on dev work

I'm interested  :o any space for a puny 1Ghs miner?

Absolutely

definitly. im going to attempt to bring a pool frontend me and a friend have been coding online and see how it goes

do you mean..... "THE" frontend? :o

Don't you sass me

Yess you **** THE frontend! it best be working, these guys are depending on you! going to try loading my changes into it too

I am interested can bring 2GH/s

nice work!

I am interested.

Cheers

Let us know. I'll throw an ASIC on.

im interested too....

can bring ~ 30 G/hs

Nice! I don't think it will be merged mining right now but I will have a bytecoin pool open today or tomorrow. In the testing stage of the code

Ready when you are.  8)

bte.crypto-expert.com no merged mining yet

How much hash rate on your pool Ahmed? I'm seeing the network is in excess of 1TH now, difficulty is going to retarget soon and it's going to be higher now. This looks more like another attack on the network rather then a few people picking it back up..

550+ GH on my pool i think and around the same on dsync

this is somewhat conflicting with the information in the title. what's going on :D

+1
is pool open? reading thread seems it it is NOT merged mining ATM. just BTC

just bytecoin atm. I changed my idea. Im going to hold off till this retarget and view the net hash. more than likely its going to drop off again. But i am going to be implementing merged mining into the pool. Just gradually so dw :D

So i switched some power to the pool.
But  i have a little problem.
For Erupter Blade i need a proxy, but i cant connect to the pool.
How can i do that?

Regards Sukki

I am interested I got 0.5 GH to throw at this  ;D

interested in this.
email me or PM me.

I have lots of miners interested in this.

How much hashpower do they represent, and are they hashing for bytecoin at the moment?

I am selling bytecoin

What is your ask?

All reasonable offers will be entertained

On coinex.pw/mining/pools/BTE I have a buy order for 25,000 BTE at 0.00001 BTC/BTE.  The top buy order is at 0.00006602.
If that is reasonable, please execute a sale there.

what quantity and price are you thinking?

I'm not sure
