Hi luksbit, good question.
In short, no KYC is not required for anyone holding Hanacoin. KYC rules differ between each country but tend to apply at the financial transaction level (exchange).
We are referring to not masking the transactions as outlined in this article: https://www.nasdaq.com/article/know-your-coins-public-vs-private-cryptocurrencies-cm849588
Basically, transactions can be seen in the block explorer and tied back to individual wallets numbers.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Kirk

Thanks, BiteByte, appreciate all the effort you have put into this one and the solo mining guide. Might be worthwhile posting this guide on the Discord chat also. I don't want to steal your thunder

Hi Dilbo,
The current difficulty on the coin is 495.846 which is still relatively low as its a new coin. This adjusts up and down automatically to try and restrict the flow of coins to 1 block per 1.5 minutes regardless of the number of miners. There is a separate difficulty applied at each pool level which should be restricting the level of packets you submit back to the pool to ensure the pool resources are sufficient.
The pool level diff can make it appear like you are submitting less due to the increased difficulty, however, there is generally a difficulty to share ratio which caters for miners submitting fewer packets but at a higher difficulty to ensure they are not disadvantaged over higher submissions but at a lower difficulty.
We have seen payouts on single gpu miners all the way to quite large miners which is a great balance to see.

If you are using the current hanapool mining pool, we have discussed above some issues we are experiencing and hope to have resolved shortly.

Thank you for supporting our coin in its early days and I hope you continue to believe in what we are trying to achieve. 

Hoping we can have the Discord channel up and running soon, just focusing on pool issues at the moment.

Regards,
Kirk

Hi Michael,

I can see these payments were made from hanapool to your account. I tried to PM, but you don't accept messages from Newbies

I will make sure we look into the block explorer asap.
Thanks,

Hey Michael,
We had several mining pool issues pop up since the ANN. All payments should have cleared and we have seen payments being made to accounts. Can you shoot me a message with your wallet address and I will double check there are no pending payments for you?

Thanks,

Sorry about the username, our Hanacoin user is currently offline and I want to get you an answer asap.

*edit*
Also, please keep in mind that payments have a 100 block confirmation. Based on our target time of 1 block per 1.5min, it should be taking around 2.5hours to clear the payments. So if you moved pools in this time, the payments would have come in after your pool move.

I second duolingo for learning the basics, but if you want to master a new language, nothing beats learning from a native speaker.

I think someone who is genuine and displays and acts that way consistently.

Money causes greed and greed brings out the worst in people. There is no money in rape or most murders and they are very evil. Greed is the root of all evil for me. Money is one part of greed, there are many more.

This wont stop me from trying

Social media is good and bad. I feel bad is more memorable and that's why we relate to social media being bad. The constant negative news and distraction on our lives social media can have is obviously bad, however, the information it can provide and the ability to keep families in touch is a big positive.
I guess it all depends on how you use it.

Just want to be fit and healthy and teach my kids respect and value.

Skiing. All my friends go there for skiing i hope to make it one day.

Usually sit down and play a couple games or watch some tv. Reading books is also a great relief.

I enjoy thew convenience of online shopping but only purchase known brands and researched products. I wouldn't buy clothes online for example as the sizes vary too much.

I love Korea.

I love the Wheel of Time series. Cant pick a favourite out if them.

10 deep breaths. In through the nose, out through the mouth.

I have never vaped, but have been around many people who vape in the office. I think it needs the same treatment as smoking. Don't vape where you wouldn't smoke. Just my opinion.
