Title: Mining YAC.
Post by: spoonman on May 09, 2013, 11:49:03 AM
Managed to mine a block overnight on an Athlon x2 270 dual core.

Tried for 3 hours this morning on a cc2.8xlarge Amazon EC2 Instance, and got nothing!

Won't be doing that again!

Ah, did notice that http://pool01-royal.coinloot.com:8300 is down. I only managed to mine 10.5 RYC with the pool but I did manage to mine 100 solo earlier but the difficulty climbed too quickly (or my luck ran out).

Managed to get YAC yesterday but nothing since around 18:00 (GMT) yesterday so without a pool it is no longer viable. But then again I don't have the fastest CPUs :(

I mined a decent amount early on, then last night the blocks completely dried up. Got a few again today, one every few hours.

There is not yet any pool for yacoin because it's different than other alt cryptocurrencies.

Still not getting much here...

If any one knows much about it could they make sure I'm doing it correctly. I've installed the YaCoin-qt program and ran this start.bat file:

Quote
yacoin-qt.exe -server -gen -addnode=82.211.30.212 -addnode=76.115.8.101 -addnode=192.168.0.6 -addnode=54.217.249.235 -addnode=54.217.249.230 -addnode=54.217.249.229 -addnode=54.217.249.139

with this yacoin.conf file:

Quote
rpcuser=XXX
rpcpassword=XXX
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=8108
port=7688
daemon=1
server=1
gen=1

Oh, and I do get a response to "gethashespersec" - varies from between ~30000 to ~100000

I've only seen windows people complain about YAC mining problems.... anyone on linux having problems? I've mined quite a bit with an FX 8120 and ubuntu 13.04. sure i got about 200 orphans too. Those who complain about orphans just don't understand how the whole network works and coordinates itself

I dont have any configuration file, and i dont think you need one, since you are using the GUI wallet provided.
Variation in "gethashespersec" is normal i think.
uprocessor cores are not full 100% every-time..it varies depending in what its doing with algorithm.

Mining for 3 hours with 3 cores I7 and no luck so far.
If someone can send me smallest amount (or any) of Yac to my account to check if wallet is at least working, would be much appreciated.

YAC is hard to mine. I either got nothing, or I got orphans.  :-\

mining any currency block is hard. This is not like pool mining where you get steady, small payouts. This is a full block. If they were easy to mine, They'd be totally nothing. Say, you mined a YAC block (~30YAC) would you sell it for cents? or would you hold on to it till you see that it was woth the effort? Pooled mining actually kills the coin and it's value

in the other hand, if people cant mine at all, it will die soon.
Coins without pool option are dead.
Every coin you see in market for exchange have pool support...there will be no enough coins to exchange without pools.

That what i think

I'll just keep at it for a bit then, My CPU is acting up now though. Normally YaCoin-qt.exe uses 25%, 50%, 75% or 100% depending on whether I set its affinity in task manager to 1, 2, 3 or 4 of my cores, however now it's refusing to use anymore than 25% regardless of affinity...

If people stop to mine, the difficulty goes down and others will be able to mine again. There's a balance like this. Pooled mining throws a lot of hashrate that is basically wasted and raises the difficulty faster

Who use command "-a scrypt-jane" to mine ?
