Title: merged mining Post by: cnapsys on May 10, 2014, 07:17:22 AM Hey all,
I have recently set up my 2 antminers and they are both hashing away on eligius... I noticed the other day that there is an option for adding a nmc address for merged mining. How would I go about getting a nmc address? My btc wallet was generated through the Armory installed on my pc. I don't think armory has any support for nmc. I read somewhere that you need to sign a msg with your btc wallet in order for eligius to accept your nmc addr. Can I do that? And if so how? Thank you in advance for your replies...

to configure it - goto http://eligius.st/~wizkid057/newstats/mystats.php?cmd=options put ur nmc adress and sing it. to have mnc adress - download namecoin wallet from http://namecoin.info/ and generate it.

Title: Re: merged mining Post by: jonnybravo0311 on August 14, 2014, 08:54:01 PM you can also merge-mine other coins: IXC, DVC Not on Eligius. If you run your own p2pool node, you can merge-mine BTC, NMC, IXC, I0C, FSC, HUC, DVC. On Eligius, it's NMC and BTC.Hey all, You need to download and install the NMC wallet locally. To sign a message with Armory, go to Tools -> Message Signing. Enter your message (copy it from the line on Eligius) and then put the resulting signature back in the box provided in the Eligius page.I have recently set up my 2 antminers and they are both hashing away on eligius...

Title: Re: merged mining Post by: xstr8guy on August 18, 2014, 06:54:49 AM You don't need to download a local wallet for namecoins to merge mine them. I just send mine to an exchange such as Cryptsy or BTC-e. I frequently Exchange them for BTC so I'm not worried about losing them if the exchange vanishes. Namecoins add about 1% to your total. DVC and IXC add virtually nothing and will never amount to much unless you're mining with multiple PH.
On the other hand, never use an exchange address for your mined bitcoins. Always use a local wallet.

To merge mine any coin along with BTC, your pool must be able to call getBlockTemplate and generateTransaction for each of the coins you're merge mining. It needs to look at the current coin's block and see if the share being evaluated will solve that block. It's not just point to some wallet address, or you could merge mine every single SHA-256 coin out there.On the other hand, never use an exchange address for your mined bitcoins.

I generated a NMC address on BTC-e and when my minimum payout is reached, BTCGuild sends the coins to the address.
