Title: GRANDCOIN, NETCOIN, EARTHCOIN, and other FLORINCOIN BASED COINS
Post by: binaryclock on December 25, 2013, 05:24:07 PM
Looking in to some issues in florin based coins, I've come to some issues that are just hard to figure out.  Still looking in to why the 300% block exist.

Mining EAC at http://eac.eu.hackshardgaming.net/ and there was a patch installed and made at server launch by the pool developer and they made the patch set to public (2 days ago at pool launch). Never mined at any pool mining uneffectivelly. Probably conspiration theory? There are many pools mining at poor effectivity many many coins and they all go left by miners, of course... Only idiot would mine somewhere where he doesnt mine at full speed.

And the pools in your signature are mining what? Pure scamcoins and Pump and Dump coins...

I am the lead dev of the fork of stratum used by the pools who the OP is claiming is cheating. Obigal the OP of smalltimeminer applied a patch to my fork of stratum to get the code used for coins like OSC/TEK/UNO and other SHA256 PoS Coins and made it work with scrypt coins with transaction messaging in order to fix the issue. Other pools have been using my fork and have followed the coin spec aka enabling sha256_tx(to be renamed still) to ensure that a tx message is enabled into the coin and therefore ensuring that a valid block is produced reducing these long rounds

Hi,

I wrote a Florin block explorer and I'm running the daemon 24/7 and have yet to notice an issue. I assume this is directly related to mining though. Can you please elaborate on the "300% block" and whatever other issues are happening with Florincoin-based clients?

Thanks

Does this mean that SHA256 ASIC machines could mine these coins?

its for mining really. the transactions need to have a tx mesage hardcoded into them for the block to be accepted and passed as valid. which wouldnt happen before
