Hi folks,

Probably stupid questions for you clever folk, but here goes:

Why do I need to withdraw coins from the Ultracoin pool before midnight tonight...what if I dont?

What is the difference between the two pools? Why is there two?

How can I be sure that my qt has upgraded? How can I check?Thanks in advance for the advice.

Cheers,

Roister01

 

Very thorough response...thank you very much for the advice Usukan...

Hi folks,

Thanks for all the hard work in keeping the coin going!

Could I just check. I have my UTC on my windows qt, minting away. What do I need to do to upgrade without risking losing my coins? Should I transfer them to say cryptsy or something, do the upgrade and then transfer them back, or is there an easier way?
Please bear in mind, I am a novice at all this...

Many thanks,

Roister

Thanks for that Alenevaa,

I have noticed that on the minerd when my last block was made, it showed a hash of 23 hash/s

When my worker starts to work though, on the dashboard, it shows as 0.22KH/s...what explains the difference between the two figures?

Would other things, such as a few different qt setups running in the background, or anything else happening on my computer affect the hashrate?

Also, would it be a similar sort of process to mine other coins, such as ultracoin? How would I go about that?

Many thanks, as always...

Roister

Thank you...

So to clarify, if i am understanding the situation:

My computer is only capable of 0.22 KH/S, or 220 hashes per second.

The pool hashrate was around 1 KH/s

The network hashrate (anyone currently minting in the world) 20 KH/S

MM can raise his hashing power to 100 KH/s

So we would need a hundred pools such as this one to have the same hashing power of MM?

PHEW!

Thanks Alenevaa,

Just noticed a payment that went into my yac account - it didn't get confirmed though...

Could I just ask, the pool hashrate, i assume is the computer power used within this pool?

If so, what is the net hashrate?

Also, what sort of hashrate would the MM have, do we know?

Cheers,

Forget that...I realized that my password was automatically going in the pin section...that's why it kept throwing me out! Sorted now...

Hi there,

I have tried to edit my account, but it won't accept my pin, and keeps locking me out. I have reset my pin 3 times, but it won't accept the pin it generates for me?

Also, my miner has been running all morning, but nothing has happened, and it says I have no active miners..it may sound silly, but do I have to open that bat file i generated each time I go back on computer, or does it just know to start it when I open the pool up?

Cheers,

Hi folks,

Thanks to a lot of support from alenevaa, I have managed to start mining yacoin! I noticed that the first lot mined have now been confirmed. Also, my minting stake has been confirmed after about 20 attempts...It has over 600 confirmations - will this now be safe?

Also, on the YACoin pool statistics page, there were around 20 green confirmed validity, amongst the red orphaned...does this mean things are getting better, or is this normal?

Cheers,

Roister

Bad news! Does this mean that someone is actually mining at a financial loss, just for the sake of being unkind, and trying to ruin the coin?

I am sorry that I haven't got a clue how to mine myself - Is there a (very) simple way of showing me how to mine on my laptop, or would it be no use anyway?

Cheers,

Roister

Thanks for the replies. I have read the previous discussion, and am now convinced I live in a different world than you clever folk, haven't a clue what most of it means! I take it though, that the few thousand YAC that are arriving, are never going to be confirmed?

Am I right in thinking that there are around 70 million YAC at the moment? Even if I owned them all, would I not get any POS, because someone else does the mining?

Cheers,

Roister

Hi folks,

Does anyone know why my minted coins are not confirming? They arrive, get to one confirmation, then get rejected...This has happened quite a few times. What should I do?

Cheers,

Roister

I know it is a bit of a long shot, as no one as of yet has bothered to answer any of my queries on this site. However, I shall try anyway. The android app - does it work or not. I have tried, but as of yet it still doesn't work on my phone. Until small details such as this are sorted, how
 are we realistically hoping to get any sort of mass adoption/use of this? Be brave, give me an answer...

The new website is looking good, well done folks!

Could I just ask, do we have an android app that works yet? I have tried to download one on my S6 a few times, but it keeps saying I need more files, but then says it can't do it...is it just my phone that has a problem, or is it the app?

Cheers,

Roister..

Haha...sorry I asked...

What does this mean, to a layperson?

Hi folks...

Just wondered, with the recent concerns about BTC block size, and the threat of 'dust' upsetting the whole system, would UTC cope better with this type of 'attack' because of the fast 6 second transaction times?

Hi folks,

I know i'm just a newbie, but I wanted to say thanks to the management team, and the effort they have made in keeping this coin going. It can't be easy, especially if they also have other jobs to attend to. I have very litttle in the way of computer skills (still haven't worked out how to mine the stuff!), otherwise I would help. I have however helped in the way of buying UTC, and have built up quite a stock. However, I am not sure that it is the best thing to be doing. If all we have are a hundred or so folks with a percent or so of coins, what will be the point? It will never be adopted as a credible currency due to lack of availability/liquidity...what should be done for the best?

Cheers,

Roi

Hi there,

Could i just check something. I have downloaded the qt database, and have a small amount of bitcoin in the wallet. I have encrypted this, and saved the file to a memory stick. What would happen if I then:

-deleted the qt database from my pc? Could i download the qt again, and add the wallet from the memory stick.

-downloaded the qt database on another computer, and tried to add the memory stick wallet to this? Would it add the coins to the new one, or realise they were still on another qt database elsewhere?

Many thanks...

A confused Roister01!
