Title: Dogecoins
Post by: pterion2910 on December 12, 2013, 08:13:10 AM
Hey guys,

So today I started mining dogecoins with my laptop-core i3 processor.

It has been mining for the last two hours and I got some 200 dogecoins.

Really looking forward to the world of cryptocurrency.

Cheers.

I have been researching about this cryptocurrrency stuff for the last two weeks.
Had plans to buy 2th/s mining rigs and all but later gave up.

I am working upstream from scratch.

I wish all of you good luck. :)

I just came upon Dogecoin today and began mining as well.
I won't buy any special hardware as it's too high of a risk and I have real-world expenses.
But it's fun mining a ridiculous one that will probably not go anywhere.

I'm using my GeForce GTX 680 and pulling ~200KHs... seems acceptable.
Just waiting to get my first payout in my pool of 50k Dogecoins.

All the pools are pretty flaky right now, either they go down a lot or they don't allow you to cash out. Also I think scryptpools has way more than 50% mining power, so the pool operator could easily do an attack.

If you're having problems with pools going down, one thing I found that works pretty well is to run multiple miner instances, each going to a different pool. That way if one pool is down and the miner can't connect, it'll automatically use as much as it can of your GPU for mining the pool that's still up.

Yeah, running on Script Pools and it's been flaky a few hours ago and then it stabilized.
But there have been payout issues the last few days and I'm still waiting for mine even though I have 50k+ for a while now.
Going to bed soon so I hope to wake up with coin in my wallet.

Scryptpools has been having a lot of stability issues today. Earlier the pool was down but withdrawals were possible, however since about 11:00 UTC the pool has been running but both auto and manual payouts are not working. I really hope what lego said about the pool operator isn't true, I have 900,000+ dogecoins in there right now. It seems like he's just been having server issues though.

Well, I will try it. Actually I'm trying :)
But DOGE sync seem a bit overloaded.

None of 3 IP for wallet sync are available
Code:
[root@vpn ~]# telnet 162.243.113.110 22555
Trying 162.243.113.110...
telnet: connect to address 162.243.113.110: Connection refused
[root@vpn ~]# telnet 95.85.29.144 22555
Trying 95.85.29.144...
telnet: connect to address 95.85.29.144: Connection refused
[root@vpn ~]# telnet 146.185.181.114 22555
Trying 146.185.181.114...
telnet: connect to address 146.185.181.114: Connection refused

But still. Its fun. Any maybe fun-factor will apply here. I would like to see where it goes.

Anyway, here is my WOW DOGE address for testing: DDsni6ooPUDq1T6Kex1j5uu8P59saECusH
Feel free to WOW sometime.

EDIT: Synced, mining, all done. (I transfer eers.dat from previous PC, it helped). Btw thx for +10 DOGE. Woof

Some people already traded doge for other goods... someone traded lik 1000000 Doge for 0.1 BTC. Others sell $20 Games for around 20k Doge... so there seems to be
very need

For all those who are in doubt or think like it's just a joke,check out this link.It has been already enlisted in a https://coinedup.com/OrderBook?market=DOGE&base=BTC.

I am really positive about these coins because it's the latest on board and rapidly gaining popularity.
Plus it's a win win situation for me as it can be mined by my laptop @100 dogecoins per hour approximately.

Have them. Sending few back for test.
Im behind socks 5 proxy on this 1.1 wallet. Without peers.dat it did nothing.

EDIT :(
Buu. Can't send. It crashes on send money attempt. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/13028145/temp/DOGEerror1.png
(I tried this 5x, round values, no messages, ...). I guess theres something wrong with socks server integration in this wallet.

They may be a joke, but lots of these 'joke' coins end up actually being worth something regardless of whether they are actually used for anything other than a medium of exchange.

Post by: pterion2910 on December 12, 2013, 06:13:26 PM
Anyway I'm satisfied with what I have.Dogecoin can be mined using my laptop.So it's better to mine altcoins and see what happens than doing nothing at all.I am being very optimistic and hope it pays off. :)

May be it's a joke but in that sense,this life itself is a joke. :) So chill. ;)

Post by: Idig4DOGE on December 12, 2013, 07:00:03 PM
http://doge.scryptpools.com is under maintenance. The pool op is very new to operating a pool and also was the first pool to go up, so everyone jumped on it, thus the stability issues. That being said, the op seems very committed to making things work and even said he wanted to make it the best pool. I am almost completely positive in saying that he won't run off with everyone's coins/flake.

As scryptpools is under maintenance and its stability has been super wack, I switched over to http://pool.testserverino.de as did a lot of other scryptpool miners around the same time. Runs well. Haven't had any issues. Haven't done a payout myself, but have heard that others have and that they been quick and reliable.

as for market rate, its generally accepted to be 10k DOGE per USD. That being said, the dealings have been all over the place. Really nuts exchanging.

Here you can find MORT432's market evaluation (hasn't been updated for a day now): http://doges.org/index.php?topic=89.0

Also, keep an eye on: http://doges.org/index.php?topic=216.msg1002#msg1002 .
GoodDoge exchange was the first to go up, but MORT432 was initially trying to process transactions live manually (not the way to go about things especially since DOGEcoin popularity is skyrocketing) so he had to close it down. It'll be back up soon, MORT432 is working with a coder to make the transactions automated.

As mentioned before, CoinedUP has also joined in the fun: https://coinedup.com/OrderBook?market=DOGE&base=BTC
Worth knowing, here's the Reddit post for the CoinedUP link: http://www.reddit.com/r/dogemarket/comments/1spbn2/coinedupcom_now_supports_dogebtx_exchange/
From the posts there, it seems it went down about an hour ago, might still be down.

Lastly, for exchanges: http://www.reddit.com/r/dogemarket
          for DOGEcoin news and fun: http://www.reddit.com/r/Dogecoin
          And the offical Dogecoin forums are here: http://www.doges.org

Got into it too !!

Amazing to be a millionaire of something !

I agree with Idig4doge concerning the scrypt pool for Doge. It seems reliable. I've mined 700K+ coins there until 4pm. Though, after 4pm my "unconfirmed" earnings stopped showing even though I was hashing 1800 kh/s, and that before the pool went down for maintenance. I guess I 'm around 1million now, if it goes well with the pool

Wow, many fun

I got around a 600k payout from scryptpools a few hours ago but nothing since.  So, they are at least that legit.

I think dogecoin is funny and really did not expect to see it selling for actual BTC already, thought it was more of a joke but mined a bunch of it all the same. 

Hopefully the "Joke" keeps going so these millions I've been mining actually pay off :D

Let's just say he's mining doge 24/7 now.

So, I am mining with CGminer 3.5.0 (was using 3.7.2 but switched cause maybe that was problem.. it wasnt) , I have tried directing it at several pools, yet I get no doge.

CGminer says it is hashing

When I go to the Dashboard, it does not say I am mining, and it does not show my worker connected to ANY pools I have tried...

My transactions all say 0.000000000

I am trying poolerino now, but it doesnt look better... Where the hell is my hashing power going? I mined on a pool all night and got Nothing.. this is total crap.

What does your cgminer .bat file look like?

You could try a p2pool, I've made a good amount from one, no need to sign up.

Just create a .bat file, put it in the same folder as cgminer.exe file, edit the bat file and put in:

Code:
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
cgminer.exe --scrypt -o http://pool.hostv.pl:9555/ -u DCMJJGBQPP9KGFvGuvac9DxrnFF5t1HLkb -p 123123 --intensity 13

The above is my bat file, replace my wallet address with yours, password doesn't matter. You can raise the intensity if you want, I'm usually at 18 when afk. Then you just save and run the bat file.

Sorry if I mentioned a bunch of stuff you already knew, it's hard to tell the experience of miners.

I have basically 0 experience with CGminer. Been using Bitminter for bitcoins, never had to mess with this stuff before.

I am using a CGminer.conf file in my cgminer directory. Im not sure how to make a .bat file.

I just restarted cgminer 3.5.0 with no .conf file and I input my info for poolerino by hand. I appear to be mining something, but the poolerino does not indicate that I am.

thanks

Can DogeCoin be bought on any large exchanges?

So far I have only found dogecoins on ebay, and they are exorbitantly priced. I have seen dogecoin for sale in the bitcointalk forum, but not sure how safe it would be to transact that way.

Also, it appears that there are currently something over 8000 blocks so far in the dogecoin blockchain. Each block from 1 - 100,000 gets a 1m dogecoin reward. So that means that there are already 8000 million dogecoins in existence. Right? So how can the price of dogecoins on ebay be justified?

Anyone?

Block 1-100,000: 0-1,000,000 DogeCoin Reward
Block 100,001 — 200,000: 0-500,000 DogeCoin Reward
Block 200,001 — 300,000: 0-250,000 DogeCoin Reward
Block 300,001 — 400,000: 0-125,000 DogeCoin Reward
Block 400,001 — 500,000: 0-62,500 DogeCoin Reward
Block 500,001 - 600,000: 0-31,250 DogeCoin Reward
Block 600,000+: 10,000 DogeCoin Reward

It's worth this much because it is a fairly well distributed coin right now, most people don't have more than a few 100k. Also there's the coinedup exchange https://coinedup.com/

Not exactly, every block rewards from 0 to 1.000.000 Doge which should come to about half on average :)
So 4000 Million Doge, judging by the common price of 0,1BTC per Million this comes to a Market cap of 400.000 ^^

Don't try to make sense of ebay coin prices btw, more often than not they are incredibly expensive ^^
