I can confirm that hashcows Multipool works with CGminer 3.7.2. No idea how the payouts will be at this point but the Hashcows crew is reputable, I have done Business with them in the past and they are always professionals. So what are you guys waiting for, lets get this hashrate up there!
That's excellent news. The other one had issues with CGMiner. Good to have a professional and reputable multipool. It should help dramatically with improving distribution and improving the price. That should get even more people interested in Mintcoin. Anyone reading this and still on the fence, better get on the train before it's too late.  Blackcoin seems to be upset that we have a working multipool.  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=469640.10220 (near bottom of page) BC is always upset with Mint- for no real reason at all. Lets not stoop to their level and antagonize/mock/bash them. |

(I don't remember someone at MINT ever accusing BC of bribing someone. How elegant from BC to accuse of felony)
Please don't take one persons statement as the feeling of "BC" Even if you did "bribe" a pool (not saying you did in any way) that is certainly not a felony, only a business dealing. There is more than one person on this thread that bashes Mint... and they even sometimes pay the Mint thread a visit to talk trash. So very nice... I really don't understand why the two coin communities can't get along better. It doesn't speak well for a coin if you have to bash another to make yours look better. |

I've also been on hashcows for the past 36 hours and seems to be good profit thus far. I just have not received any MINT yet (not that BTC is bad, but having hashcows buy MINT consistently is gonna drive the price up) And yes before ppl say I'm lazy, I could cash out BTC and buy MINT, but I'd rahter hashcows get their process straight. GO SIGN UP! https://www.hashco.wsEven when you select Mint as the payout they still payout in BTC? |

Anyone had any luck with PoT yet?
i had one for about 4500 coins. someone really early in the thread posted a screen cap of theirs too. Really won't see any more until after block 22K because the pools are unable to solve them... Remember when I said it was the pools that caused the sometimes 6 hour blocks? That was 100% true (they all probably solved them but the blocks were being rejected effectively nullifying their hashrate until a solo miner solved the block, which is why early on we never saw it). But not their fault. I needed to modify the getblocktemplate RPC function, and also modify the stratum-mining server code that they use in order to get it to work. My ignorance for not understanding how stratum mining works. If there was no stratum mining and pools still used getwork, there would have never been an issue or major fork. Keep up the great work thekidcoin! I am really digging this coin. I see lots of potential, especially with a dev who is as involved as you are |

An Android wallet is coming out, 20% interest in the first year, an excellent hashcows multipool... better get on the train. I have no idea why anyone would sell at 17 satoshis or less when this coin can reach 100X that or more.   Lol .. the Mint Train  LOL. this just made my morning |

that's somewhat confusing ... always have to know your cost of basis and what you're buying to determine your capital gains? so if you sell the bitcoins back to USD at a gain, it's taxed as a property gain? It is extremely confusing... "Bitcoins held for more than a year and then sold would face the lower tax rates applicable to capital gains -- a maximum of 23.8 percent compared with the 43.4 percent top rate on property sold within a year of purchase." Does that mean if you don't "hold" them for a year before you sell them you don't have to pay taxes on the profits? If so... couldn't you just convert your BTC into an altcoin and then right back into BTC once a year to avoid ever "holding" them for a full year? Hahahaha Also, no mention of altcoins at all... So, convert your BTC into an altcoin that has a fiat exchange and then exchange to fiat and you don't have to pay taxes on the capital gains?!? Wow, I think you just found a loophole stormia! Lol, what better coin to turn it into than one that pays 20% interest  Vault of Satoshi baby! My thoughts exactly. Now they realllly need to get back to operating in the USA  |

This is great. I went ahead and voted for mintcoin as well, even though they already said it will be added can't hurt! |

dang, payout of 1 coin per block totally sucks. Who wants to mine this coin at this point, unless the exchange takes off again?
This coin isn't really meant to be directly mined any longer. Coins are generated by and the network is primarily secured by Proof-of-Stake. At this point you either have to buy in (get in while the price is still low!) or mine at a mint multipool which will mine the most profitable altcoin and automatically sell them and pay you out in mintcoin. |

I'm using Mintcoin-qt 1.4.0.0 and I have a few coins that have sat for 25 days now and they got a big pile of mint (~1.12%) on day 20 and have since stopped minting at all. I've opened it about once every other day and it is unencrypted and synced.
What is the deal with it? Do I need a new wallet? If so how do i move them into a new upgraded wallet without resetting my 20 days?
If all those coins went to stake on day 20 and minted coins, they will have to regain their coinage- so you won't be able to mint on them until another 20 days, right? This is how I thought it works, anyways, somebody please correct me if I am wrong. Also, I would recommend upgrading to the new wallet. So I only need to open my wallet every 20 days? If you were like me and had staggered deposits then coins will reach coinage at different times, so I usually open mine once a day or so. Couldn't that be programmed in the wallet? Automatically open when it's been 20 days based on coin values and then close? Seems like an obvious feature or don't even have to open wallet and have the procedure run automatically... or something.  I don't know the technicalities enough to know whether having it run automatically, without having to open the wallet, is a possible feature- that would be really really cool though. I believe having it automatically open to mint on its own would require that your password be stored somewhere (assuming the wallet is encrypted) and I think this would jeopardize security. |

Just to be sure I know what I'm doing: I did a test transfer of 1 blackcoin from mintpal to the blackcoin-qt from http://www.blackcoin.co. When I open the program I see the balance of the wallet on the left and recent transactions on the right. Is that it? If I transfer my remaining balance they will just sit there? And it's secure? What about the two features "encrypt wallet" and "backup wallet"? What do those do? Thanks again. If you don't encrypt you wallet everyone with access to your computer can open your wallet and spend your coins. If you don't backup your wallet your coins are lost if your hard disc drive is broken or if you can not access the wallet.dat for some other reason anymore. If you add a password to your wallet, you should make sure a trusted individual or instructions hidden safely so someone can access your BC if anything were to happen to you. +1. I've had nightmares about retrograde amnesia. |

I plan to provide an update on the status of the Android wallet weekly until such time as the bounty is removed. I've completed all of the cosmetic and translation work in the wallet. I've begun work in the mintcoinj library. As thisisit mentioned, this portion is slow going but progress is being made. I have made the code changes to allow outgoing peer connections on the main mintcoin network. Currently I'm working through some protocol & deserialization exceptions attempting to download the blockchain. Any updates to the mintcoin wiki in the form of protocol specifications and testnet configurations (if any) would be greatly appreciated. Keep checking the URL of my original post for updated screenshots.
Oh wow. That's great news! From what I understand this is fairly substantial technical undertaking. I applaud your efforts! Don't forget the link https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0BwpkXqmxmdGScm9lb21pTXhuS00&usp=sharingAlso very great news |
