Excellent. I've bookmarked it and will give it a try sometime soon when I have a little time.  Thanks!

You can get a faucet, paper wallet, and one type of game at http://coinok.pw/

Just learned about them recently - hope that helps!

Oh, OK. That's what I'm looking for. I'll see if I can get it set up on one of my Linux miners or the Windows one if that doesn't work. Looks fairly straightforward.  Thanks.

Not sure what hardware you're using, but I'm using an Antminer I just got. Solo mining is straightforward with a computer, but I was looking for instructions late last night on how to set a standalone device like the Antminer to solo mine, but didn't have a lot of luck. 

 Thought I'd figured it out last night (running the wallet on a PC in server mode then connecting to the IP address of the PC) but it didn't connect. It was kind of late when I tried it, so maybe I missed something obvious because I was pretty tired.

If you have a link to a good solo mining guide for a standalone device like an Antminer, I'd appreciate it.

I just switched over to eminer.pl and I'm barely getting any discards at all, so the problem seems to be with your site specifically. Maybe the overload issue?

Got to avoid thinking about how many millions I must've lost as a result.  Not blaming you, just...

Oh, OK. For some reason I was thinking the orphans showed as rejects.  Thanks.  I'm still very happy with the results so far.  Definitely going to keep mining at least through the first day. 

Very interested to see how the price adjusts once it gets on exchanges as the blocks halve so very rapidly. Hope this coin does well!

I've been mining on your pool since a few minutes after you opened it last night. Any idea why I've been getting 2-3 times as many discarded as accepted? 

I've still mined a lot, but it makes me wonder how much more I would have if not for the high discard rate. Been getting very few rejects as usual, but have never seen so many discards.

Not all alts will succeed necessarily, but far more will enjoy a degree of success than most people think.  Check out Coinpayments.net for an example of what we'll see in the near future -- merchants able to accept basically any altcoin they want.  It's up to the community to talk to Coinpayments and other similar services that are still in development to get them to accept Moon.

As for promotions, I am sending a sequence of lessons to my 25,000+ person newsletter about crypto right now.

Last week I introduced them to the basic concepts with the video you can see linked in my sig, and this week I'll be sending them video lessons showing how to download the Mooncoin wallet and how to receive funds. Any of them who share my lessons on Facebook, Twitter, etc. and send me their Moon address will be sent some Mooncoin, and they'll be entered into a drawing to win more. 
 
I'd planned to do this all sooner, but ran into some unrelated technical issues that held it up -- but I think the timing is better now anyway, with the updated wallets & difficulty settings. 

People seem to forget that Mooncoin and others are measured in Satoshi.  Satoshi is a fraction of Bitcoin.

So when Bitcoin rises in price, and it will do significantly later this year, then Mooncoin goes up in value even if it stays at the same number of Satoshi.  So you can still make a profit selling it for the same number of Satoshi when a Satoshi is worth more.

And as more companies start accepting a wide variety of altcoins, which they will, Moon and other alts will be able to be used to buy things directly and their value will rise.

So, to quote Douglas Adams... "Don't panic!"

Deaconboogie,  is there anything you have to do to notify sites like altexplorer.net, hypecoins.com, etc.  for them to register the correct difficulty?

The former still shows a difficulty of 346 and the latter shows as "22 hours behind", so they don't seem to be synced up right for some reason.  Just wondering.

I've switched three machines to mining Moon on Multipool to help move things along.

Compiled a copy in a Windows 7 VM. Pretty straightforward. Thanks.

Good to hear. 

Update to a post I made a while back -- I'm still planning to email my 25K+ person newsletter with lessons showing them how to get & use the Mooncoin wallet, I've been waiting for the update before proceeding.  So maybe next week if the updated wallet is available. Fingers crossed.

I'd still appreciate some details on how this currency is "stable" and "pinned to the dollar".  The white paper is really vague on these points and my earlier question wasn't answered. 

Seems like cryptocurrency value is generally set by the market, and this has no market as yet so some kind of answer to these questions would be helpful and would inspire more confidence in your project.

Thank you for your time.

Mine seems to have stabilized with 1 active connection and suddenly caught up while I was looking at the forum. 
Good enough for now...

Coin definitely needs more nodes.  I have all the ones listed in this thread added but the wallet app doesn't do more than get 1 connection for a second then drops it and back to 0 so I can't get any of the coins I've mined.  Guess I'll leave it running and see if any come back online...

I kind of would like something about halfway between. Maybe with most of the gold color in the outside ring only...?

1) Get Coinpayments.net to add Mooncoin to their merchant services platform
2) Sign up the shop and get them an account on Cryptsy
3) Set up Coinpayments to deposit Moon to Cryptsy with autosell
4) From there they could use Coinbase to convert to USD

Takes a little setup, but wouldn't be difficult for the merchant after that I don't think.

Could you explain how the Hashdollar is "stable"?  It's supposed to be pinned to the US $ in some way...?  

I find some of the details about this currency to be, well, vague.  

Not trying to pick a fight; just want to understand. Thanks.
