There has been massive amount of PoW/PoS coins launched lately. Majority of them have rapid PoW phase for few days or weeks and then continuing as pure PoS. Just like MINT and BC did first. I guess MINT and BC huge price jumps did nice job of pulling new clones out. There is at least one which shows some creativity. Digit looks rather interesting. 0.2% monthly PoS base interest. 0.4% on the second month 0.6% on third month and climbing by 0.2% until PoW mining ends after 3 years from launch. That makes month nr36 monthly interest of 7.2%. Interest rate will fall back down after mining is ended. Interest min payout time is 1 day. No maximum limit. PoW block reward is dependent on its falling multiplier and difficulty multiplier. time multiplier starts at 3.34 and falls to 0.1 by the month nr36. https://github.com/DigitSF/Digitunsigned int nStakeMinAge = 24 * 60 * 60; // 1 day
unsigned int nStakeMaxAge = -1; // unlimited static const int64_t MAX_MONEY = 90000000000 * COIN;
static const int64_t MAX_PROOF_OF_STAKE = 0.2 * CENT; // 0.2% const int MONTHLY_BLOCKCOUNT = 60000;
int64_t GetProofOfStakeReward(int64_t nCoinAge, int64_t nFees, int nHeight)
{
unsigned int MONTHLY_MULTIPLIER = 1;
for (int MONTH = 1; MONTH < 71; MONTH++)
{
if(nHeight < MONTH * MONTHLY_BLOCKCOUNT)
{
MONTHLY_MULTIPLIER = ((MONTH<36) ? MONTH : 36 - MONTH%36);
}
}
if (MONTHLY_MULTIPLIER < 1)
{
MONTHLY_MULTIPLIER = 1;
}
int64_t nSubsidy = nCoinAge * MAX_PROOF_OF_STAKE * MONTHLY_MULTIPLIER / 30; |

The recent flood of shitcoins and scams are bringing people back to honest, hard working coins like Mint.
Indeed. I have announcements notice enabled for altcoins and i get about 6-10 emails per day at the moment. 99% of them are just crap. Theres one or perhaps two coins which could become something, but thats it. I have always liked good coins, but last months is been shitstorm. Since i have small scrypt asic farm(gridseeds), i always look for something new to mine. Currently started mining Digit. It was launched today. Name is nice, OP is solid and perhaps it can become big. Myriad is another one which i do like and stockpiled a small amount of it too. And of course. Not selling a single cent off my Mintcoin.  |

any other pools?
Im soloing at the moment, since difficulty is still low. Hopefully can solo for few days at least, until it becomes lottery. |

Ill ignore the list and vote for Digit!
Just cause i like the name and want to see what will become of this coin.

Liking wallet a lot. And the name as well. Installer worked perfectly. Fast and easy. Going to DIG in this nice coin!  |

Yet another BC thread. Thats surprising. ...not. Obviously the most of you are kids with no purpose other than trolling. BC is fine coin, but theres other fine coins. And now you are already bashing eachother. Cant you all get along? Somehow? |

Creating one more idiotic topic here will grant you and the Whitecoin a lot of fame. Surely...

I agree, that not working minting only checkbox should be taken off from gui. Just to avoid confusion.
Regarding safety. I have to be totally honest with you. If you have RDP hack or or keylogger in your PC, then your wallet unlock checkbox is your smallest problem. Having or not having wallet unlocked for minting only doesnt keep you from getting robbed. In best case it keeps your little brother or sister away from sending your coins to strangers.

Trying to build QT on ubuntu, gives me several errors on this one. I really dont have time to start debugging all this.
Can someone link me to linux-qt please?
If you're referring to the error "SSE2 instruction set not enabled", the fix is to modify the myriadcoin-qt.pro to add the CXX flag -march=native and run qmake, then make, again. You can download the modified myriadcoin-qt.pro file from my dropbox. I can also upload the myriadcoin-qt built on a Lubuntu 13.10, but that would require trust on me (that I didn't put a trojan on the executable). It's preferable that you build the qt client yourself. To download the modified file (you have to copy this over the myriadcoin-qt.pro that came from the github source):wget http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/t0dy5o165qh9br3/myriadcoin-qt.pro
cat myriadcoin-qt.pro | grep -B3 -A3 march
Remember, you still have to run qmake, and make. Qmake will create a new Makefile with the flag instruction. If the error you're getting is not related to SSE2, then I can upload myriadcoin-qt, but only if you want it from someone other than the dev team. Big thanks! Added flag and it compiled with ease. Dev could add extra qt pro for linux. So it avoids problems for anyone new who wants to compile it. |

"Unlock for minting only" does not work.
This was said to be solved but i can still send coins without being prompted for password
I remember i told specifically that unlock for minting only does not work yet. Its not an error. Its just a feature which is not working yet. Perhaps someone could look in to that soon? |

I will say that I am also getting exactly jack and shit in terms of minting coins, since upgrading to 1.8 and then 1.9. Seriously I was consistently minting several times every single day then since upgrade I get maybe 1 minting of half the previous amount, every 1-2 days. Something is fucked up. I'm not the only one experiencing this.
I'm just rolling with the 1.8 wallet. 1.9.1 doesn't seem to mint like 1.8. I know, "it's the same code, ect...". This doesn't explain why people are having this issue though. Why is it that I had 1.9.1 open all day and nothing happened, but then I open up 1.8 and stake right away? I don't know, and I don't have time to understand this between school, work, and E.Cs. The answers I'm getting arn't helpful and dodge the question : why are people having a different experience staking with the 1.9.1 wallet? This isn't an isolated happening. Something is different. I'm still concerned about having staked less coins this time around. It's not logical I appreciate the work being done, I'm just offering my experience with the new wallet. I get the frustration of being the person who knows what's going on and trying to explain to people who don't have the same techincal skills. Again, if I had the time I could throw the concepts around in my head but I simply don't right now, but I'm at least going to offer feedback with how new software is working for me. Did you read our explanations about how minting/staking works? Until now, everyone who claimed having issues with minting with 1.9.1 are proven to be mistaken. Maybe you are the first one who honestly has an issue with 1.9.1 wallet minting. For this i will need to see your coin control window printout together with explanation, why you think its not working correctly. You could either put it here or send me a link to it by PM. I can verify from blockchain and see if theres a reason for concern. I quess i must repeat one more time that staked inputs often split. You can clearly follow see all that happening from coin control. For example. If you staked today for 30K coins, then next time you will get 2 x 15K coins. Amounts also depend on time. When you will get your stake and how it will scale with 20% yearly interest rate. All static coins end up with 20% yearly interes on first year. This does not mean that you will get equal amount on each payout period. |

The client doesn't mint according to a schedule, not does it mint an exactly specific amount. It finds blocks and you get a reward based on the transactions in the blocks you find.
There is an existing factor of variability that is inherent to the process.
Read and understand about PoS
I give up... Found another error in 1.9.1 today but i just skip saying what it is because you guys just "it works as intended, just read how pos works yada yada...." Keep ignoring the errors i move on... Heres exact change log. Could you point to the error please. I cant see anything wrong with changes. Im sure, everyone here would say big thank you to you and surely mintcointeam would pay you a bonus for your trouble. |

Not saying that there wasn't hostility on both sides or anything, but we should all keep in mind that not everyone on here is equally technical and if we want the community to grow that's going to require non-geeks to come to the table. Ergo we should probably not be assholes when someone asks a question that has already been answered, and we shouldn't get frustrated when saying RTFM doesn't help them because, they don't really understand the aforementioned manual.
Its been said many many times in last few pages, that 1.9.1 wallet minting is fine and works correctly. He didnt even care enought to provide details of hes problem or read just one-two page back to get hes answers. Instead he called us being hostile and dicks when i simply said that "please stop making up problems which dont exist". Did not insult him any way. Simply said that 1.9.1 is working just fine. This person doesnt give a rats ass about our explanations and help. Why should we care about him/her? |

You're not the only one experiencing this, I've had the same problem since upgrading. I decided to come here for help and was basically accused of being a troll and not knowing what I'm doing. No one is accusing you. You are just expecting everything to be handed to you on silver plate and you dont even care enough to provide simple screenshot of what i asked. I have explained all your questions just few pages ago. I even provided pictures for those who have trouble understanding. If you dont want to read this tread or my posts, then you can find aswers everywhere. Mintcoin has identical staking formula to most PoS coins. You can find literally book worth of material, if you google. Go and read please. |
