Title: 42coin solomining - coins lost??
Post by: ollyweg on January 14, 2014, 07:27:45 PM
Hi there,

Yesterday I decided to try mining some 42coin.
After seeing that all pools seem to be dead, i tried solomining.
After only a few minutes I noticed that my qt-wallet (started with GUI) showed a balance of 0.0042 42coin and the same value as unconfirmed.
So I was confused: I read that finding a block will usually give you 0.000042 42coin, yet it said I had 100x that value.
I didnīt see any message in my miner anymore, but it might have "scrolled away" already.

So now I was waiting if it got confirmed or not, but now, 24h later, nothing has changed.

Also I tried looking up what it said about my wallet adress on http://altexplorer.net/chain/42 (http://altexplorer.net/chain/42)
But it simply says: Adress not found.

Is any of this normal?
Is it possible that the 42coin network is that slow?
Thanks in advance for any Help.

BTW: my mining Rig does around 1 MH/s.

This is a bit confusing at first, however the "42" you saw on the wallet is actually the name of the coin, notice the space between "0.00" and "42".

Hm, looks like youīre right, it must be the name of the coin.
Itīs pretty stupid though, it looks like itīs part of the balance.

Thanks for your answer.
