Vanillacoin was engineered from the ground up and is designed to be innovative and forward-thinking. It prevents eavesdropping and censorship and has security in mind. It also promotes decentralized and energy efficient network transactions at sub second speeds.
 

• Vanillacoin uses random ports at startup. This means your ISP doesn't know what you're doing just by monitoring your ports, like it can with bitcoin, peercoin or even darkcoin. All TCP network connections are secured using the Elliptic Curve Cryptography Cipher Suites for Transport Layer Security. So all your ISP sees is normal SSL traffic.
• O(1) routing - allows for maximum scalability as the network gains. https://books.google.com/books?id=Do5ww79p3wwC&pg=PA9&lpg=PA9&dq=%22O%281%29+routing%22&source=bl&ot
• Energy efficient - ideal to stake in the background of mobile devices. [An r9 270x for example should use around 100W while hashing at 90MH/s]

Additional features will follow as development continues - meanwhile please take a look at the whitepaper down below.

FAQ:

Does the miner work well with both GCN and VLIW cards?
Current miner produces a lower hashrate on VLIW cards and a higher on GCN cards. There will be different miners released in the future probably.
A user reported a hashrate of 20 MH/s on a 6970 and 30 MH/s on an 5970.

My miner produces a far lower hashrate than the other miners?
Change your driver version and delete your .bin files and start your miner again. Catalyst 14.9 seems to work well for most users.



Example configs:

catalyst version: 14.9

Again ?

Is VanillaCoin a fork of any cryptocurrency?

yeah : l , the last poster didnt really make an ann , he just posted a new miner for the coin , so it got moved to the mining section  :-\

no , i belive its made from start , you'd have to talk to the dev on vanilla forums about that tho :p

...just a questionn
another copy&paste...
or there is some real innovation here???

thanx!!!

nice wallet  ;D  ;D

as i've said , the algo is completly new , what dev's real goals with this coin is , i have no clue.
but its definetly isent a reglar pump and dump coin.
looks real intresting to me atleast : )

i read about WhirlpoolX algo..
i mean if the coin introduce a real innovative feature...
ot is just another pump&dump coin...

Now with 4 million coins mined people start posting here after a few mined all those coins.  Hoping for pumping and dumping 4 million coins?  Same as like neutrinocoin and rimbit.  Mine all coins in secret then announce.  Makes look like marketcap is big until looking at volume.

I like that name!! Vanillacoin rules!

i cant answer that , as i've said im not the dev.

indeed , the name is very awesume  : ) i belive dev will also change logo soon atleast so we've been told : > maybe we can get something more like vanilla

Name is most important feature of coin? 

So what's the intentions to post it hire again and again ?


 :-\

looking at how quickly people jump to a new coin, the answer to your question is: definitely, yes.
Any real innovation here?

  i've been mining VNL since (before!) day 1,(on launch, there were some fatal errors and the BC was reset several times before temporarily throwing in the towel and running on testnet for a few days) the dev's stated goal was to create a currency with a fair distribution, leveling the field; CPU, GPU, ASIC, everyone will have an even chance to grab some vanilla. you can read the other VNL threads and catch up on the details, there was no attempt at secrecy.

 
  i think there is some bitcoin code, dev has also mentioned inclusion of some code from peercoin
 

alright , thanks for clearing that up : )

This coin has always felt like one of those sleeper coins like Flutter, and with GPU mining out there's a new window of opportunity for people to get in before it goes huge.

yup , first it was cpu and now its gpu miners turn :)

GPU rentals available here https://www.miningrigrentals.com/rigs/whirlpoolx

Now is a great time to get a lot of coin, before more pools open up and more people point their GPU at it.

Yes it is innovative. Built basically from scratch by the dev.

how do i mine on the pool. what do i use as the username and password for the rig i rented

  -u=yourVNLaddy -p=anything (i think - it's unspecified)

from the getting started  (linux cmd - for win just change the ./minerd to minerd.exe)
./minerd --algo=whirlpoolx --url=stratum+tcp://HOSTNAME:3032 --coinbase-addr=YOUR_WALLET_ADDR --user=YOUR_WALLET_ADDR

 

It was announced 10 days before its launch.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=890388.0


Go to read the whitepaper, specially its 3rd page.

Good to see you guys here again... indeed, this coin was announced on BCT before it's launch back in December and this has been one of the easiest and fair coins to mine... props to the dev!

Exchange needed.

Good luck, Here's hoping for a smooth launch.

it launched like 3 months ago man ^_^

agreed , but i dont belive source is public yet , once source goes public exchanges will come : )

So much mining

No source?

Are you trolling? You published the link to the source in the OP and now is saying the source is closed?????

For the people asking:

VNL had a concensus system going while the solo mining phase. Literally no one could game the system (those who tried were shadowbaned from the network) and the most people have mined with were 3 dektops (simply cpus). The 4 million coins are probably evenly distrobuted and the faucet atm has 260k coins. Now block rewards a bit lower 106 down from 128, but GPU miners run energy efficiently and produce high hash. ocminer and minerpools are already in talks with the dev on making 3rd party pools for the coin.

Also please read the whitepaper and the VNL forums. Hundreds of pages of information and people taking place in the alpha/beta phase of the coin. John-connor (the dev) has proven that he can code something from scratch and not clone just another X11, X15 or whatever coin is trending.

The coin was well announced before it launched and even the different patches were announced in a seperate thread a few times.

https://vnl.suprnova.cc/ is in beta now. Please support him, he makes great pools. VNL code is new and unique so that's the reason for beta.

You can now safely join the beta test, everything should be fine, payouts are confirmed to be working, tell me if you have any trouble.

Very exciting to finally be mining Vanilla with MPOS.

this coin need exchanger badlym, 3 month without one is weird  ???

Couldnt agree more.

I think there's something wrong with your pool. Can you check?

Already on it :)

Has an exchange picked up the coin yet ?

+10000
you took the words right out of my mouth

i also mining  from the start ...with 20+ update and alway on a wrong chain..

Everything is fixed now, thanks for your patience.

I rarely forked to a bad chain, and if I did I just found the answer to my problems on the forum. Maybe your just not good at this?

Also you guys forget that this started out as an alpha software, it had bugs for sure. John has proven that he proven the ability to code, he did a coin from scratch with a lot of work put into it and some nice features to be able and limit people gaming the system. Some may have done it for sure, but all I know is that I could solo mine with a 6 core amd cpu and I can not say this for the other 99% of the coins launched in the past year or so.

The reason you guys are crying is either that you were kicked out of the network by the concensus system implemented or you simply didn't follow the forums on a daily basis (I've refreshed it like 15x every day to find fixes/updates/whatever). Satoshi solomined BTC for ages, obviously John solo mined it from start.

Everything in crypto can end as a scam with mostly anon devs, but atleast this needed a good amount of coding, ill take my chances.

wow..you exploited a PoW bug for weeks and you didn`t report of it when you found it? and then you cry for unfairness now?

Coin has an 500+ diff now, became ultra popular and you potentially have a huge stash due to a bug and you want to fud it so your stash becomes worthless.

Totally legit guys.

Give him a positive trust rating, he is a hero sacrificing his free BTC for the greater good, because that is how the internet works.

Exchange and popcorn time.

vanilla popcorn flavor, this could be fun.

What about Nvidia miner ?

Mining on the coin is exploding. People are noticing. It would be great if this thread could replace the old ANN thread in search engines. If anyone can submit this or do that it would be appreciated.  Meanwhile keep mining, as the coins are harder to get, keep spreading the word, and post and grow this thread. Can't wait to see what the exchanges will bring.

Locked the thread in the miners section. This should act like the one and only thread for VNL from now.

Last time i heard about it Djm34 said it was a 5 minutes work but that he would not release it just to piss off traumschiff, i don't think that punishing the community for the behiavor of one single individual is really fair but heh

If it was 5 minutes of work it would already be out, or it is 5 minutes of work for an extremely talented coder like djm or wolf who already have a lot of the tools in place and work done.  In either case, just like SUP had an Nvidia miner for a week before a working AMD miner, VNL has an AMD miner first but I am sure an Nvidia will be out soon.  Difficulty is  only going up, so if you have Nvidia and can't wait I suggest you rent a rig at MRR in my sig below and get mining!

Whirlpoolx algo is awesome...Not created by the NSA - and it runs low low watts at high hash power

This coin could be big

How many VNL can be mined (on average) with a 500MH/s rig for 24 hrs?

This should help.

https://vnl.suprnova.cc/index.php?page=statistics&action=pool

1,355.12651659 VNL/day

That is if the difficulty stayed the same and no more miners joined in but that is a ball park.

Thx... numbers look good... I'm on it 8)

any exchange add this coin ?  lol the diffcult 800+

We are working on getting listed. 8)

Thank you for your support.

This guy said he doesn't like Bitcointalk because it is a cesspool & to use the official Vanillacoin Forums yet he is back.......... Ironic right, not enough investors in your coin ?

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=890388.msg9921833#msg9921833

It was probably because of the community over at the vnl forums. We wanted him to be everywhere (IRC/BCT).

Ironic right?

 ::)

i belive its in the works , its apparently not very easy to make one tho or there's just not any developer that is intrested in making one :(

Update your miners! said to run 2x faster

Copy past from DEV's post on vanillacoin forums :

Here is the final sgminer windows 32/64 binaries and source code. The 32-bit version is notably faster in testing but some miners have requested a 64-bit version and so this may not be true for everyone. In order to gain any additional speed the lookup tables would need to be rewritten.
http://vanillacoin.net/downloads/sgminer_32.zip
http://vanillacoin.net/downloads/sgminer_64.zip
http://vanillacoin.net/downloads/sgminer-5.1.0.zip
I have confirmed the source code compiles on Linux and Mac OS X.
Thank you for your support.

I'm interested in an optimized version...

Indeed...

beta version for 0.1 btc (if anyone interested you know how to contact me)

current speed: 185MH/s gtx980
                     168MH/s gtx780ti
                       52MH/s gtx 750ti

when the coin on the exchange  >:(

lol, rally good coin. everybody wants to sell :D nice future :D

So there is an Nvidia miner with about the same speeds as comparable AMD, but it is not free yet.  See above posts as it is .1btc, but I would guess will eventually leak out.  As far as exchanges go, since this is a new and special coin, it requires some work with the exchanges and John.  I believe that is starting to happen today, but I have no ETA.  We all know this coin is new and special, my advice keep mining or renting to mine as difficulty is going up every day.

Man, 2 months have passed, nothing strange that some folks want to pass their bags.

1150 diff 8)

Bwahahaha!

And volume is greater than bittrex... ;) :
https://www.coinhey.com/trading/XBS_BTC
The buy orders..lol
don't touch this guys

Seems legit.

https://i.imgur.com/JEZplqU.jpg?1

wts 10k pm me

edit: still for sale (will remove once sold)

price pm me  8)

Payout from Vnl.suprnova.cc (vanilla coin) never made it to my wallet despite being debited from my account. Double checked the address and this is absolutely not an error or oversight on my end..a lot of coin I mined is completely missing. Please contact me ASAP

LOL Seems legit.. hahahaahahah

Trust me, this "exchange" does not have vanillacoin listed. Exchanges can not just insta-add VNL, it
takes source code and work from the dev with exchanges. You will know when we have a real exchange!
Should be soon.

hello,

does the wallet support socks proxy? I cannot seem to find how to enable it? thank you.

no, but it's important, many coin come with a shit name, or stupid joke(doge is an exception)

faster version now available:
    gtx980   202MH/s
    gtx780ti 170MH/s
     gtx750ti  63MH/s

Exchanges  ???

Does anyone here could make the kernel optimizations for VLIW cards?

exactly :-\

Hey there, nice work ! Do you think you can optimize the sgminer for amd ? i would buy it !

Hello , i'd reccomend you to go to https://kiwiirc.com/client/irc.freenode.net/#vanillacoin and then try to reach out to ocminer over there.

Completely dont know how to do it :(

Doesn't sync, bunch of errors. Same as last week. Nice build.

Some news about exchange?

Bumbacloth bag holder stfu, you can<t  judge a coin in is early development ...

its sync here and on all my computers join irc `vanillacoin if you need help

Some work needs to be done but i heard c-cex is a taker

Dony worry man,dev will spend btc to make vnl get listed on c-cex.bcz he needs an exchange more badly than anybody else to dump his 'stolen' coins in the past months.  ;D

Dev is working with C-Cex which will probably be the first exchange, then Bittrex most likely,
but it may take a couple days.

I think this Vanillacoin is haunted... I tried to forward the localhost but it made a callback to localGHOST

I was so scared I FUD'ed all over myself...Oh and I think vanillacoin impregnated my 16yr old daughter while I was sleeping. I know it wasn't the mailman like usual.

P.S.  Definite SCAM...I can tell because someone wrote in real big red letters in a previous post

I've been following this coin since day one, and John-Connor made it very clear in a post
that if he detected a gpu miner on the network he would "deal with it" to keep mining fair
and release his own gpu miner for the public. He did exactly what he said he would. He told
you that if you were mining with more than 10% of the nethash of the pool, 90% of your
coins would be donated to the faucet. I was one of the first to use the gpu miner once
he made it public, and I have 10 gpus. Of course I started them all up, but as soon as I
read that, I stopped mining with 8 of them, because I KNEW I would be over 10% and
donating. I donated plenty of coins to the faucet that way, but I am not crying about it.
The dev made it clear from the start he wanted fair distribution and was penalizing or banning
ips of botnets and abusers. In the early days of mining I used a laptop and two old desktops,
I found that I was getting less coins than by just following his rules of two computers per
ip. Yes this coin is different in that you can't just instamine it, if you don't like that then there
are plenty of coins released every day that you can go rent GH or PH and rape.   Hell now that
the 10% rule is gone, you can go to mining rig rentals and beta rigs, rent all the whirlpoolx rigs
and continue your obsession to get all the coins.

VNL is completely a clone of Libcoin.You can check the source code by yourself.

 He locked the thread and allows only 1 core with 1 IP  in order to mine with high performance cpu (or gpu ).

This is definitely a scam without any doubt.

ooo rarrr people are angry that this coin exists. 




Honestly and in all seriousness.   This has been the ONLY coin I have ever participated in that the dev has communicated clearly and openly.  I'll just leave it at that since obviously my opinion is as valuable as the angry peoples. But there it is.

My eyes are hurting from all that red... if you feel you need to reply to a fudster then at least don't quote them over and over... you can "Report to Moderator", who will take out the offensive formatting but the best thing to do is to click on "Ignore" under their name...

Dev has stolen too many vnl over the past months.

Such an unfair distribution will lead to scam.

So is it scam or not?

coin mined months by few  no talk here just silent  now big promote after many coins mined  make your decision  many coins wait for dumping  more 4 million

I mined coins but never would buy when get exchange  just sell like most  make profit go next coin like everyone

airball, you do realize that it is the same dev and he called it libcoin when he started it.
He created it from scratch over many months. Stop trolling and fudding.

Why do you say that?  I did some quick comparisons of the latest github source trees and there is some similarity, but it's certainly not a simple clone.  It looks like a reimplementation based on some of the structure of the standard bitcoin daemon and Libcoin.  Seems like he put quite a lot of work into it. 

Red ignored.  ;D ::)

I used Peercoin as the reference implementation and nothing else. If you cannot tell from the source code that this was a massive effort I cannot help you. 8)

Thank you for your support.

To anyone interested, Airball was trying to game/cheat the no asic/gpu system at the start of the coin which led to a ban from the network and he lost coins. There was a global concensus system in place to which everyone agreed to, which led to a fair cpu mining period.

He is crying on the vanillacoin.net forums nonstop and is threatening to start fuding if he doesn't get his coins back. We are trying to explain to him that he shoud have read the forums once in a while, while mining the coin, but he was never there, he doesn't know what we are talking about.

Give us a wallet adress Airball, I'll send you 1 VNL if you stop talking.

With just a few small tweaks, the source just uploaded today on github builds on mingw64, and it even syncs fine!  Great job :-O

Nice, and John just finished the work with the C-cex devs. They should launch VNL soon.

Hopefully C-Cex was the right decision.

of course it wasn`t the right decision....you guys obviously don`t know a better trading platform that similiar to C-cex...its name is Bleutrade :)


  https://bleutrade.com/exchange/7555

This bullshit.
C-cex much better. Yobit also a good option.

Wow some news is happening for VanillaCoin, gonna start mining again :)

I don't think so.. C-Cex is good to dump - nothing else.

Poloniex/Cryptsy/Bittrex would be my choices...

+1

+2

don't do c-cex or coin will die

c-cex is fine. Its just a place to trade coins. 

I also like to-cex

Sometimes you need c-cex first so Cryptsy and co notices. It's all on what John prefers since he is the one who can talk to exchanges.

C-Cex is the best out of the smaller exchanges. Sure some people are going to dump coins there, but they would at ANY first exchange.  So we can buy them up cheap, who cares? There is always an initial dump.  Bittrex is a great exchange with high volume and would be the obvious second exchange as they are more willing to list new coins sooner. Poloniex and Cryptsy are good but it usually takes longer and more work to get listed. If we could be on all four of those exchanges, it would be fantastic.

Got my miners pointed at the pool, address shows up in the pool statistics, nothing showing any payouts in my wallet. How often does the pool pay out?

If anybody is interested: you can sell & buy whirpoolX hashrate at NiceHash.com (http://NiceHash.com) to mine VanillaCoin.

I've got good experience with coins trading on C-CEX before going to Bittrex... it's not all pnd... looking forward to VNL trading activities...

 the pool pays out regularly with short intervals but the 200 confirmations needed for maturity take about 12 hrs

Thanks alot for adding whirlpoolx , helps out alot : >-

So wait 12 hours and they will come rolling in.. got it :-)

Thanks!

Good job for adding WhilrpoolX! Hope you get some traffic.

Hello here ccminer with whirlpoolx for nvidia cards: http://ge.tt/4M837JB2/v/0?c
(currently only compute 3.5 and higher are supported)

This version include a 5% dev fee

current speed: gtx980 203MH/s
                     gtx780 170MH/s
                     gtx750ti 62MH/s

it supports both vanillapool and supernova pools

"Vanillacoin was engineered from the ground up and is designed to be innovative and forward-thinking"

I see no evidence of that..

Try reading codes.

Beta pool open. Should work I think.  :-\

http://vnl.nonce-pool.com (http://vnl.nonce-pool.com)

The included bat are for pluck : are there any particular setting for a GTX 980 or GTX 970 ? difficulty multiplier.
Thanks for providing a way for small miner to take advantage of your miners : the per fee solution is best for me.

Nice!

Please spread some hash over !

no nothing special expect "-a whirlpoolx", the diff is set internally

new version (the old one has been removed): http://ge.tt/2Mw0LKB2/v/0?c

added support for nonce-pool (aka "fifty shade of blue") and some minor speed gain (better kernel tuning)

Could some of the miners please spread over to nonce? We need to even out for stability, and to keep load down. Thx

I just moved over to noncepool it's awesome...and NO FEE right now!

Does this version of the miner include Dev Fees ?

EDIT: Just realized this is for Nvidia GPU's

Miners please spread your hash to all other available VanillaCoin Pools.

The little fellas need help.

Got 120 MH on 7970 (gpu950/ram1000). Is this a good result?

Why there is whirlpoolxPitcairngw64l4.bin, not Tahiti?

Hey , just wanted to remind everyone that i am NOT the dev , and im not the right guy to pm if you want a bounty / or if you're an exchange etc.
you can reach dev in kiwiirc.com/client/irc.freenode.net/#vanillacoin his username is John-Connor
Thanks!

with this setting i can get my r9 290x so put out 180 Mhs -I 19 -g 1 -w 128 --no-submit-stale --failover-only --gpu-engine 1100 --gpu-memclock 1500

Yes bump

Also pool01.vanillacoin.net  has no fee either

Hi , i belive dev wants us to stop using the 02 pool so i'd appreciate if everyone changed to 01 / nonce-pol to even out the hashrate

I'd really appreciate if some (many) could move over to nonce, as I'm doing some updates/upgrades on the pool and I expect some short interruptions within the next 2-3 hours, you can still set suprnova as your backup pool since hash is already uneven spread, it would be REALLY cool if you could move over to nonce.

THANKS

Is there any way to get info from the wallet like via command line or a debug console somewhere? I'm not finding it, other than RPC of course. Trying a standard wallet command line query with either the windows or linux wallet binary (such as "./vanillacoind getinfo") always just starts a new wallet process, even when one is aready running.

WTF...
alcurex can't even gen a deposit...

Wow.. 16+ hours for windows wallet to download the blockchain and it's only about 60% done.  Huge amount of data going out and very little coming in. WTF

  mine was done from scratch this AM in abt 20 mins

https://c-cex.com/?p=vnl-btc

Same problem - Integrating.  Gonna be awhile...

Thank for the info.  I just tried it on another computer/network/isp and it's much much faster.

It looks like the bottleneck is the upload bandwidth.  I have DSL with slow upload speed and it brings the blockchain download to an excruciating crawl.  Only with this wallet.  Still concerned about why the huge proportion of outgoing vs incoming data.

 a very reasonable concern! idk tho - i have a fiber conn. but i've downgraded the isp plan so it's not as fast as it was. dev is pretty good at answering questions over at http://vanillacoin.net/forums/index.php

i have had some unusual behavior - had to shut down the wallet yesterday due to excessive cpu use

About Vanilla coin on alcurEX.
We can't get wallet RPC port working, so market is not active.

Is there any special settings to get it response?

There may be some sort of bug; I noticed an extremely high rate of getblocks in the log during the initial sync on my build. After seeing a setbestchain in the log with the current block number, I restarted the daemon and after that the behaviour seemed normal.  It looks like the vanillacoin daemon trys to allow getblocks to occur as fast as possible, compared to the slower rate used with bitcoin.

Thank you guys.

how long for coins to arrive to exchange? in wallet i have 3/3 confirmations , but on exchange nothing is

Does it have any other exchanges not disclosed in the op up to now?

I advise you not to send coins right now, my friend and I sent from two different wallets, and coins never showed up on the exchange.

what should be the speed at r9 280x?

same as a 7970:

Few minutes ago I sent 100 just to check, wallet says sent exchange shows nothing, so yes, I'm confirming problem with c-cex

 lol... ::)


most alts do this


if youre not the dev why are you the one creating the thread? Oh wait you were prolly one of the first to mine the shit out of this coin as usual?
RED FLAG.



So its just waiting to get dumped on.


this has all the warning signs. and looks like a guarantee for losing your money.


If it looks and feels like a shitcoin .. it IS a shitcoin. Although i must say props on new algo.. other than that there is nothing new here.

it sounds great, will get some vanilla for me, vanilla is all time my favorite. ;)

Ocminer who can probably read codes did it and wrote it was awesome. Did you or your just shitposting? Also the coin was announced on BCT way before launch, anyone could have mined, you could even solo with a shity dual core.

Get back to your cave troll.

I did the first Ann with less than 20k coins which was moved to the miners section, najz isn't even an early miner IMHO.

sweet white paper  ???

Remember http://vnl.nonce-pool.com  is another pool out there....Pool hash is at 28GH/s and no fees for mining

When exchange?  I want be first dump my coins 

You can dump to me on https://c-cex.com/?p=vnl-btc 

Thanks!

im not on this and wont be prolly a good sign to buy

Your presence and need to make such coment leads to other conclusion  ;D

Any news about c-cex deposits? I think VNL is new  DRK   ;D

Do you mean has C-Cex responded to any Support Tickets?  Not that I know of.  Has anyone had theirs?

c-cex can not despoit  ???

despoit - despot = Freudian Slip?

Still waiting to hear from C-Cex on a wallet restart or what the problem is. Some people were obviously able to deposit, and the rest have coins not showing up there yet.

Can anyone tell me if I need to add somethinf to my bat (user name)?

I get one miner with only 58% accepted on Sopernova Pool (the other worker was at 97%) and worse on Nonce pool 49% and 84% with both workers.

whats your config look like?

ccminer.exe -a whirlpoolx -d 0 -o stratum+tcp://mine1.vnl.nonce-pool.com:4333 -u username -p password -q

We made sure all current deposits worked.
If You have any issue, please, open support ticket here: https://c-cex.com/?id=support
select "Deposit" type of issue and put Transaction ID into corresponding fields. We will resolve it fast.

Thanks working great now.

FAQ repairwallet?

Maybe this will help.

http://vanillacoin.net/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=2859#p2859

You got a nvidia card I take it...I'm not sure of config on that..maybe someone else can help

C-Cex,
I know you are working on it again, but deposits are not showing up once again. Can you give us an estimate on when we will see them please.

Problem localized, we made workout to make all current deposits to post to account. Please, check.

Yes all my deposits finally got to C-Cex.

I see this person asking the "pay the dev to create your coin guy" if he can make a Whirlpool algorithm coin.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=466908.msg10632252#msg10632252

Except our guy gave live proof several times on the fact that he can code himself.

The c-cex could not open now ? ???

yeah c-cex is down  :'( , the same happened to Bter few days before BTCs from Bter were stolen. We can only hope that c-cex is not hacked.

Info from vanillacoin IRC
c-cex-yuriy :Cloudflare issue. Already resolved. Waiting for Cloduflare refresh their service thing.

^ great news, what a relief  ;D

What kernel / where can I get one for a Pitcairn GPU(270x)?

Hey OP,

Can you put a link to nonce pool that actually works? I click on it and it comes up as page not found.

http://cryptomining-blog.com/wp-content/files/sgminer-5-1-0-whirlpoolx.zip
or
http://vanillacoin.net/downloads/sgminer_32.zip

@echo off

Any info about vnl on trex ?

trex will probably add vnl as soon as everything works flawless on the existing exchange (c-cex), everything seems to work fine. We will get monitored for another day or 2 probably.

"flawless(ly)" ???
If that is the case it might be awhile.  I've sent 6 deposits to C-Cex, and 4 of them required support tickets.

C-cex did another update like 12 hours ago, did you deposit since the last update and are your problems still present?

I've done 2 deposits today, and both were quickly and without issue

I initiated a deposit just before my post, some 25 minutes ago.  C-Cex shows it is on 2 of 7 confirmations.  This is already much better than yesterday.  We'll see.

I have buy this coin ,hope it has a nice future~

Okay, it went through, took an hour, but at least it beats yesterday.

Good to know. Bittrex shouldn't be that far now ;)

My deposit was fully confirmed after 28 min

Hey dev, I've got an outgoing tx deposit to c-cex that seems to be in-stasis; however, it is not reflected in my balance in the wallet or on c-cex in my balance...please, some guidance. Thanks.

it's deja vu, all over again

Please open a support ticket on c-cex and write back with the results.

It looks at the problem from his own wallet and not with c-cex

If the source of the problem is indeed on my end it is inherent to the Vanillacoin wallet software for OSX or the VNL blockchain. I show the outgoing TX in my wallet but it reflects no confirmations as it's remained for over 24 hours now..yet the coins from the (frozen) TX are undoubtedly deducted from my balance shown in the wallet. If this were a regular Qt, a rescan and/or repair wallet etc..would more than likely solve the issue but alas..it is not. I'll open a ticket with c-cex and see what happens.

In any regard, I will keep this thread updated.

Thank you very much. Also please join us on freenode #vanillacoin there are some competent people there who may help.

You can put the TXID in blockchain.vanillacoin.org

You can get the TXID by right-clicking the transaction and clicking copy.

If the TXID isn't on the blockchain, the problem is with your wallet, not with C-cex

You might have to use curl if you want them now.  Go to the IRC channel.  They might be able to help.  https://kiwiirc.com/client/irc.freenode.net/#Vanillacoin


john-connor is working on the console.

This coin is still a work in progress.

Wallet repair is possible this way: install curl and cmd box the following:

Linux: curl --user user --data-binary '{"jsonrpc": "1.0", "id":"123", "method": "getinfo", "params": [] }' -H 'content-type: text/plain;' http://127.0.0.1:9195/
Win: curl.exe --user user --data-binary \"{\"jsonrpc\": \"1.0\", \"id\":\"123\", \"method\": \"getinfo\", \"params\": [] }\" -H "content-type: text/plain;" http://127.0.0.1:9195/

People on IRC can help with this, a user just reported back with this working.

(If it's an issue with your wallet)

This will give you information about the wallet
If you would like to fix wallet you have to write in the command line instead getinfo repairwallet

Appreciate these posts, you guys..

I am attempting to troubleshoot via the aforementioned methods and will report back again - hopefully with some positive results.

Also, in no way were my comments a bash or attack on VNL, the dev, or any of the minds behind the coin..totally understand that it is a work in progress, and a relatively early one at that.

Thanks again.

BTC  8)  BTC

That worked for me on windows:
curl.exe --user user --data-binary \"{\"jsonrpc\": \"1.0\", \"id\":\"123\", \"method\": \"repairwallet\", \"params\": [] }\" -H "content-type: text/plain;" http://127.0.0.1:9195/

can anyone give me the link for cpu miner please

You can go to pool01.vanillacoin.net and click getting started (there might be a faster/more optimized CPU miner in the vanillacoin.net forums), but a powerful CPU will only get you about 1/35th the hash of a powerful GPU.

whops, copied the wrong link, sorry for that. What Jimlite wrote was the correct one.

Also feel free to join IRC and check out the VNL Bot for Curl commands.

Write in "!rpc " for commands. It has the following currently:

checkwallet, dumpprivkey, encryptwallet, getaccount, getaccountaddress, getbalance, getblock, getblockcount, getblockhash
getblocktemplate, getdifficulty, getinfo, listsinceblock, getmininginfo, getnetworkhashps, getnewaddress, getpeerinfo
getrawtransaction, gettransaction, listtransactions, repairwallet, submitblock, sendmany, sendtoaddress, validateaddress

Where is the hidden pools?

Probably a private farm.

Some pools need to update their daemon, it's a bug.

Yes, I'm know that a GPU more faster than CPU lol.
Why I can't enter to vanilla forums?
I'm getting this error every time

Vanillacoin.net is down because there are technical problems on the dev's place. "John-Connor: This is all I know right now: “We fixed this issue yesterday, but apparently, there are still some major issues. The technicians have been notified already."

Thank you.
How much BTC I will earn with 1gh/s?

According to our bot: 1.0 GH/s --> 319.52 VNL/day would be probably cheaper to buy on c-cex.

There will probably be a short inteview with the dev tomorrow which will explain some of the features VanillaCoin has to offer compared to other coins out on the market and also some future plans.

what's the typical hashrate of r9 280x, 290 and 290x?
thanks!

Hashrate of the 280x should be around 120 MH/s, hash of a 270x is around 90 MH/s, I don't own a 290x, but it should easily be around 150-60 MH/s.

And the power consumption of a 270x is around 100W so it's really efficient.

I'm getting about 130 Mh/s with 290@1100 and 143 Mh/s with 290x@1100 with wolf linux miner (I believe the kernel is the same of the windows pre-compiled version).
Is it good?

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=964581.msg10609784#msg10609784 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=964581.msg10609784#msg10609784)

That sounds very reasonable imo , ive heard some people getting up towards 150 mh/s tho with a 290x

good you  you do work you get profit

coin good with dump only  I mine lower difficult then  I dump when price higher it now

now move other coin with profit made this

not worthy mine now  many coins wait to dumped  much difficult  waste time

I have 150 mh/s  with a 290x

Wow!  Congrats!  That almost makes it profitable to mine again.

How did you do that? i can only hit maybe 180 on my 290x

anyway to upload said modified miner lol

Wonderful!
I got 190 without using LDS, very low power but still too low. Will need to go back to the drawing board ;-)

Even with the public GPU miner it's still not too hard to get a block now and then with a couple of 290s -- Thanks for releasing that fixed-up linux source, Wolf0!

 I could not open   http://vanillacoin.net/forums   .
 Why?

It says :
 An error was encountered

The dev is hosting the forums, he has been encountering electricity outages and some technical problems sadly. Come on IRC if you have questions.
