Title: VTC Minning issue/bug (noob)
Post by: BreakingUp on April 18, 2014, 01:56:41 PM
Hello i am new here and this is my first post.  ;D So please don't hesitate to say if i have put this topic in wrong place or formated it wrong. :-*

So i recently to get in to bitcoins and alternative cryptocurrencies and i thought i might give VertCoin a shoot.

I used Cudaminer beacuse i have A nVidia graphic card. As usual i downloaded the wallet and registered to a pool     https://vtcpool.co.uk/index.php
I did as the instruction said and setup the url and pass and so on ... "To get started, point your miner at stratrum+tcp://p2pool.vtcpool.co.uk:9171 with your username set to your VTC address and any password."

But i thought it was wierd to use your VTC adress as username. I have never seen this before. But i modified the code so it worked on the Cudaminer softwear.

Code looks like this                 cudaminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://p2pool.vtcpool.co.uk:9171 -O VbcqKse4rxU5FTsZNaxLsV8ht421WurSB3:123

When i use this in the run.bat i get crazy amount of shares like 20 "good" shares in 10 seconds.

My question is am i doing it right? When do i get my VertCoins? I have also read that only cgMiner can mine Vertcoins but how does this work?  ???

I would be very happy if i could get some anwsears.  ;D
