This hard-fork will have significant impacts on pool mining. If mined blocks are not built paying out the 50 HOdl reward to each miners address as is done in p2pool, then each miner will have to rely on the pool to make the necessary payout transaction after the blocks mature. Who is to say the pool operator is going to do the right thing and payout 50 HOdl + all interest? What happens if the pool discontinues operating for whatever reason? Miners will have to wait a whole year to find out if they are going to get paid.
Suprnova is running more for than 2+ years now, you won't have to worry. However you can still solo mine, nothing bad about that. Or - you can vote against this decision and it'll be another fork at some point where this crazy change is reversed  |

The 2.0 release has been finalized on GitHub, please make sure your nodes are using version 2.0 or better of HOdlcoin.
New binaries are being prepared and will shortly be released.
I've updated Suprnova to the latest version, quite funny thing, it'll be the first pool which pays out 1 year after you've mined the block It'll surely be fun explaining this to the miners, i'll just link to the thread here. My job is to look after the interests of HOdlers. Yeah, I had a look at the poll and the reddit  |

BTW: IMHO this was the most funny hard fork ever, decided within 2 days over a "nutocracy" vote nice |

Maybe you want to post this into the thread itself ? Dev is aleady deleting my posts Shouldn't be a big deal, just let them fork, I doubt much would change. |

Thanks for the quick reply. So a miner would not receive any coins until a year after the pool finds a block?
Pools could mine direct to users addresses in a round robin style - however I think administration would be more complex. We'd likely be back to solo mining and I think that might be an improvement too. I don't understand the problem with pools, people still withdraw their coins from pools as soon as they are mature. Pools help very little miners to also be able to mine and get their rewards, pools attract more miners etc.. IMHO you are looking for a problem on the wrong place, do some innovative stuff for the coin, a game, a mixer, or something similar... Give the coin a use and you will see people will actually start to hodl instead of dump How many pools will stick around for a year though? If the pools were forced to HODL for a year I think we would see many lost (stolen) coins from pools shutting down with lots of coins still HODLed. I'm sticking around for more than a year already, so I don't think that's a problem, the question is which miner would mine now if they get their rewards in one year ? |

hi ocminer ... decided to try this out again - now that you have opened it ... but the miner is a binary for cuda6.5 - not 7.5 or 8.0 ... where is your sourcecode mate? ... id like to try and compile the miner ... i have fedora 23 x64 - cuda7.5 - gcc5.3 ... tanx mate ... #crysx I didn't update the binaries for quite some time, will do so now and let you know once i've got them updated |

good morning,
looks like there is an error on the chain ?!
I see this error on my daemon for the pool :
ERROR: CheckProofOfWork() : nBits below minimum work
This happens if a supposedly valid block is submited. Maybe an error in the wallet code ?!
Cookie
Not good for a new coin is it? We are working on this issue as we speak. update soon.. Ask walletbuilders for help |

Where is pool? A ninja launch without pool is not fair
Old (shit) coin everything is shit to you if they not affiliated with you it is shit fixed that for you Yes. |

Lol guys..
Yeah, block all public pools so only private pools will be available.
Pools, public or private, cannot be blocked. Wherever are miners, are pools, pools are not the problem, you earn more coins by hodling and staking than mining
Spreadcoin had an interesting innovation related to preventing pools - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=715435.0I think what we observed when the first pools came online was that we saw a large increase in the hashrate, but without an increase in users or activity. We provided a bounty for the first pool because it was such a heavily requested feature, but it may have been a mistake . . . maybe we would do better if we make pooling impossible a la Spreadcoin. Anyway I think we have a few credible options following some good suggestions - 1. Reduce block reward 2. Increase memory required 3. Try to block pools Spreads try to block pools did not work : https://spr.suprnova.cc Blocking pools in general just make coins more interesting to botnet owners as they can easily build own pools and then focus all the bots there. So one person gets a lot while the others fight to find a block |

2. Block pools so only solo mining possible - this would cause inconvenience for botnets, they really seem to like pools.
3. Change PoW so only mining from wallet is possible - miners less likely to be dumpers.
Changing this is good idea, I think so. I was miner on hodl and I was mining 24/7 with 2 pc, one with 8 core and one with 12 core. Then I didnīt found blocks anymore, like one block within 5 days, so I stop mining. If we block pools and allow mining only with wallet the real miners who will not sell those Hodls will come back in game, so the network is still secure and runs well and I think there is many Hodlers like me, who stopped mining, when pools and bots came. If we allow pools and bots, then price is dropping too low and the real miners will not start mining again, so the network will be unsecure and stuck and so on termdeposits never came back and game is over. Still in game and have term deposit all my hodls. Me too - term deposit all my HOdl's :-) Lol guys.. Yeah, block all public pools so only private pools will be available. Pools, public or private, cannot be blocked. Wherever are miners, are pools, pools are not the problem, you earn more coins by hodling and staking than mining |

I can also give some bounties for fixes.
I like to propose also that block target time could be some faster than current ~100sec, something like 60 seconds would IMHO be better.
If the block target time should be 90sec (looking OP) it seems to be in reality ~100sec, so it definetely needs some fixing too, and for me i dont mind making it more close to 60sec.
Also would like to see more PoS targeted than PoW, as we dont have any good GPU miner software, think none for AMD cards.
Maybe shorten PoW phase or PoW blocks could give smaller rewards? Any ideas?
I disagree with PoW mods |
