For those of you who wanted to know why we had a tiny premine, it is so we can give away all premined 10,000 coins as referrals to those who cannot mine, and would prefer to help us build TagBond membership. We will also be making that premine public on our site so you can see how much of it will be given out. After that is given out, we will have to source more...
That wasn't posted on the OP, plus there is a fork. Key word: Transparency....

Looks like a fork on launch. I'm steering clear... at least until everything is sorted out.
Already a fork. Seems like the technical side of this coin didn't get sorted out very well.

Wow, the difficulty more than doubled.... ...But it's fluctuating a lot still....
|
|
|
Wow, difficulty is flying; 6200 and counting!
It fluctuates, sometime it's in 3000's and all the way 6000's. True, hour retargets lead it to fluctuate a fair amount while the coin is young, but network hashrate is certainly going up nicely . Yup, it definitely is up...lol....Now, just need a stratum pool to lower the stale rates...

Register at http://tagbond.com and post your ID number here, with an address to send 1 TAG. In a couple of days time I will enable the referral system so that anytime you post your referral link (eg: http://tagbond.com/1 is mine, as my ID is 1), then you will receive 1 TAG for every person that signs up via that link automatically after email confirmation. This will be credited to your TagCash Web Wallet in our system, and when our TagCash Exchange Server is up and running later towards the end of the week, you can transfer out to your own TagCoin client. You might want to update the OP, add the mining info for both solo mining and pool mining. Just a suggestion. Also, start pushing for this to go to as many trade markets as possible, Cryptsy is a good early adopter of new coins.

Since most market use 3-letter for tickers, why not BT2, BC2 or BTS for it's ticker?

HD5850 default stock clocks: 890 Mhash/s HD5850 litecoin optimized: 1205 Mhash/s
Intensity caps at 16. If you put 17+ it displays 23 but the speed will be less than half.
Maybe I should switch to CGminer, I'm getting 1.105 GH/s on Reaper with a HD 5870, OC'd core=900 and mem=1300. the coin exchanges where that?
Send a support ticket to Cryptsy to vote for them to put it on the market. Also, vote on the Cryptsy poll they have on this forum to vote it in. Just bug Cryptsy in general, as they usually adopt more coins than any other market. Great work on porting cgminer ! I confirm it is working : already found 2 blocks with it.
Are you getting less stales with CGminer than Reaper?

Seems like it's down at the moment. Are you trying to match Cryptsy? LOL...J/K

still not working here with those settings on both my 5 and 6 series cards on both win 7 x64 and x86 no idea why its not working have both cgminer and bfgminer on the same systems I need some sleep before I do anymore testing its been a very long day edit: ok I used the cgminer.conf and used some of the bits from blake256.conf and it is now up and is working still not sure why the commands did not work from before via command line anyways on website cgminer for Blakecoin http://blakecoin.org/cgminer-blake256.7zcgminer for Blakecoin source code http://blakecoin.org/cgminer-blake256-src.7zcgminer.conf: { "pools" : [ { "url" : " http://127.0.0.1:8772", "user" : "username", "pass" : "password" } ], "intensity" : "16", "auto-gpu" : true, "expiry" : "10", "failover-only" : true, "gpu-threads" : "1", "log" : "5", "no-restart" : true, "queue" : "5", "scan-time" : "1", "worksize" : "128", "temp-hysteresis" : "4", "blake256" : true, "vectors" : "1", "kernel-path" : "/" } So does CGMiner stratum proxy work well with the pool? Do you suggest cgminer over reaper?

You should make an announcement for people to send support tickets to Cryptsy to put in on their trade market. As they usually adopt newer coin first than other markets.
I will continue to work on pool stuff for the moment, BLC has been voted for in the Cryptsy poll https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=309704.0you are most welcome to vote on the poll and put in a support ticket to Cryptsy asking for BLC to be added I voted it since day one. But support tickets help out too to push it.

I have been working on and have finished the Blakecoin wallet and Cpu miner. http://www.blakecoin.orgReleased yesterday but due the site being down I was not able to post on here until now: https://forum.litecoin.net/index.php/topic,6280.0.html Forked from Bitcoin reference wallet 0.8.5 Blakecoin Wallet is on Github https://github.com/BlueDragon747/BlakecoinBlake-256(optimized) faster than Scrypt and faster than SHA-256 in Sphlib C code The algorithm was written as a candidate for SHA-3, Based on round one candidate code from the Sphlib 2.1 library and reduced the round function to 8 rounds. Tweaks: Removed some of the double hashing from the wallet relating to proof of work, No changes to the wallet ecdsa public/private key function that has proven to be secure for Bitcoin. Block reward is 25 coin + inflation (square root of (difficulty + block height)) No halfing of reward after x blocks Cap in place to reduce the difficulty jumps upwards Block target time is 3 minutes and retargets every hour 7 Billion coins Block maturity 120 The Cpu miner is on Github https://github.com/BlueDragon747/cpuminerBenchmarks performance: - 11000 khash/s on a Intel i7 2600k Cpu

Cryptsy.com Exchange Fee Shares (CRYPTSY) has paid a dividend of 0.00082695 BTC per share. You own 2.0 shares and have received a total dividend payment of 0.0016539 BTC well, it's not looking bad so far, we'll see in the coming weeks I own 2 shares too...lol

Got 2 shares so far, just to try it out. Looks promising and hope they succeed.

Ok I am going to give this a try...... I have listed coins that I have on the list in the poll you can vote for one. Keep in mind I will use feedback in the thread to decide if a coin really should make it regardless of votes. I will also delete any non productive messages in the thread to attempt to make this productive. I may not attempt to evaluate coins this way in the future. Feedback posts I am interested in current network hashrate and reliability of the wallet network etc. I am interested in the premine or any other shenanigans involved with the coin. If your post says simply shit coin Ill delete it if it says shit coin and this is why your good, but use facts that I can use to validate votes and credibility of the coin. Why isnt your coin in the list? Its 100% premined. It doesn't have a known github are two big reasons. Things not to put....- "I want my coin its not in this list!" I will delete these
- "I hate new coins!" I will delete these
- "Whats the weather going to be tomorrow?" I don't know
- "Why isn't shitcoin in the list?" Refer to bullet #1
Edited: Changed it to vote for one coin. Is my assumption right, that possibly more than just one coin could get on the market?

nothing seems to be going right recently, very annoying
Very very annoying. They are losing business with people if things keep up like this. Upgrades should not equal more issues.

Is the servers down again? Or is maintenance being done at the moment?

did you install amd app sdk and did you run the setx commands?
As captainfuture said, make sure you have the AMD APP SDK and the latest AMD GPU Driver. Ok so I'm used to Bitcoin mining, where I just click Bitminter and tada! I'm mining
but FTC mining has got all this crazy overcomplicated stuff
This is what my .bat file looks like
cgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://stratum.wemineftc.com:4444 -u username -p password -I 13
When I click it, it shows some stuff, then it goes blank, but I can hear stuff going on in my computer, and my hashrate once showed as 134 KH/s then went back to 0
and hasn't moved since
is this normal?
Did you make a cgminer.conf file? Nope, why was I supposed to have one? Yes, it searches for a cgminer.conf file to run off of bat file. Otherwise, you can run cgminer in the cmd line. Can you please help me figure out if I'm actually mining FTC? { "pools" : [ { "url" : "http://www.ulr.com:port", "user" : "username", "pass" : "password" } ],
"intensity" : "13, 17", "gpu-engine" : "0-800, 0-850", "gpu-thread" : "2, 2", "scrypt" : true, "api-listen" : true, "shaders" : "800, 960", "thread-concurrency" : "1600, 2400", "lookup-gap" : "2, 2" }
That's an example of a conf file for two gpu cards.

Thank you for the quick response! And if i join a pool for primecoins with this speed what will be the profit in primecoins( i know it depends a lot) if i will be mining with my cpu intel i5 ? 10x
Don't know exactly. But if you did solo mine, the difficulty would be too high and finding a block would take a very long time. With a pool, you get constant shares and XPM payout. Try it for two days and see if you like the payout for each day. I get about 2 XPM a day from my AMD Phenom II x4 820 Quad Core CPU.
