Title: ByteCoin Merged Mining Patch- (TestNet Attempt 1)
Post by: ahmed_bodi on August 15, 2013, 03:16:32 PM
I now have a patch ready for bytecoin and would like to attempt to use it on the testnet, Anyone interested in helping out provide your ip address so we can make a small network to test it out, without affecting the existing testnet incase the patch doesnt work.

is bytecoin being merged with BTC and NMC or BTC only?

Is there a way to mine BTE now?

thankfully i managed to roll back the github from a backup i had. Im going to first get a bytecoin pool up which will be PPS but it may switch from time to time from main net to testnet to allow us to test out the patch however everyone will still get paid with coins on the main net so no worries

BFC and ZET do not support merge mining.

The spreadsheet linked in my signature lists the sha256 coins that can be merge mined together.  If column I has a number then merge mining is supported (as a child to BTC).

i agree with the above however i do have 1 thing up my sleeve which me and another few pool OP's are working on together which will benefit all SHA Miners allowing people to ROI when it looked to be impossible :D
