661  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][YAC] YACoin ongoing development on: June 01, 2013, 12:01:09 AM
I was doing some digging, and saw that there were commits to scrypt-jane a couple weeks ago labelled as "fixes so it will compile and run under mingw" - if you pulled that, could we get updated Windows binaries and get them posted?

https://github.com/floodyberry/scrypt-jane


Only one way to find out! I will add the changes to my repo and you (or someone with Windows) can test from there - if everything looks good I will send a pull request to WM to request that it's added.

Keep me updated on what happens there.  If you're working on it, I'll work on other things.  I had blocked out some time during the weekend to look at the updated commits to scrypt-jane and see about cranking out a full Windows installer package.  If you check on the scrypt-jane update and whether it fixes Windows builds, I'll concentrate on the other things that need to get wrapped up.

OK, all of floodyberry's changes have been merged to  https://github.com/joebauers/yacoin.git   I compiled in Debian and everything still works great.

*** Someone with windows will need to see if they can get everything compiled from my changes. ***

Note: That https://github.com/yacoin/yacoin is what everyone will want to use for Production builds - https://github.com/joebauers/yacoin.git is just to test the changes from floodyberry.

NOTE: No binaries are posted at this point.  You'll need to build from source from my GitHub repository during these early stages of development.  Windows client build is still problematic, as the scrypt-jane library does not compile cleanly with mingw.

So - did you get everything working? I don't care about the bounty.

I gave up. I do not have times nor nerves to mess with GNU/Linux, every damn shit I want to do means dealing with retarded command lines and even more retarded error messages.

There are GUI's for everything you need to do above - synaptic and there is one for git too I believe.... But ya - if you want a point/click/shoot solution, Debian might not be the place to start.  Wink  You would have really enjoyed installing it from floppies back in the day methinks.

What I think we need next TBH is a proper mining program with stratum support. That way we can capitalize on the hashrate we still have left and get better feedback and less stale shares.

I looked at this very briefly a few days ago and it looks like it could be adapted to YACoin if someone has time to spend a few hours on it    https://github.com/CryptoManiac/stratum-mining
666  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][YAC] YACoin ongoing development on: May 30, 2013, 08:04:46 PM
 I wouldn't be surprised if eventually an implementation for GPUs came along that was optimized and destroyed CPUs for efficiency and speed.

+1

There's no way to [proof] proof anything forever... Unless WM wants to spend the time/effort to constantly try to stay ahead of GPU implementations...

Personally, I don't see a reason why eventual mass GPU YACoin mining would do anything but strengthen YAC as it did for LTC. Besides, there are going to be "lots" of vid cards sitting around looking for something to do once ASIC's completely take over Bitcoin. 
667  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][YAC] yacoin: yet another altcoin. START is now. on: May 30, 2013, 07:47:16 PM
how exactly do you mine this coin with the wallet, I am 28 pages through and I am yet to find anything remotely close to an explanation.

I have yacoin-qt up and running but there i no mining tab as there is with litecoin for example.

or does it only appear once i have downloaded the blockchain>?

No - the mining icon (like Litecoin) is not available in the client. If you have everything up and running and have your config file setup, just add gen=1 and you should be good.  

The config file should be

rpcuser=username  <--- change this
rpcpassword=password  <--- change this
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
gen=1

Also: Don't encrypt your wallet if you're going to solomine.
668  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][YAC] YACoin ongoing development on: May 30, 2013, 06:02:16 PM
is this development still going? any response from pocopoco? Where is yacoin going?

WindMaster has taken the lead on development, and I have contributed a tiny bit as well. If any of you are devs, or can contribute in other ways, please get involved! Let's make YACoin as good and stable as Bitcoin.
669  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [BOUNTY] Running YACoin wallet and minerd on Debian 7.0.0 amd64 on: May 30, 2013, 03:35:41 PM
What part isn't working?

Just follow the instructions in the initial YACoin thread or here http://novacoin.org/install/  and replace
libdb4.8++-dev in the apt-get statement with libdb++-dev

apt-get git

git clone https://github.com/yacoin/yacoin.git

cd yacoin

qmake

make


Remember: Don't encrypt your wallet if you're going to solomine.

If you want to use minerd

git clone https://github.com/ali1234/cpuminer.git

cd cpuminer

./autogen.sh

./configure CFLAGS="-O3"

make

My initial idea for ScienceCoin was PreScienceCoin - with -5 second blocks. It sounds like Fastcoin will be almost as slow.
671  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Alt Coin Dev Required For New Coin (An Ethical, Original, Non-Scam Coin) on: May 29, 2013, 02:01:57 PM
I'm hoping a dev in here is interested in helping create a coin which has the purpose of helping people achieve amazing things for humanity all over the world both online and in Real Life. (Think non-profits, innovative inventions, works of art, etc)

Keep bumping the thread for me thanks guys!

 Good luck Wink  Also ^^^

You're giving away Novacoins???
673  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: An idea on how to give true meaning to mining on: May 24, 2013, 05:17:01 PM
Now mining is sort of waste of energy. All this GPU and CPU power has no other meaning but solving blocks which have no true life meaning.

What if mining would, beside solving blocks and getting coins, also help in some scientific research projects? For instance SETI@Home
I've already wrote them about this
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=71623

Or any other projects, medical, scientific etc
http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/10-ways-to-donate-your-cpu-time-to-science/

What do you think?

There's a few of us working on this currently. I'm at the initial planning stages with ScienceCoin, and it looks like Curecoin is farther along...

are you going to succeed? because coinlab said they would try this with some high performance computing software client, never became anything else than some announcement

I'm not going to pull a "Satoshi" and do it all myself if that's what you're asking... At least not in the near future.
I really need some folks on the level of the main Bitcoin devs to help. Of course, everyone has their own thing going on.   
674  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Yacoin Price about to Jump on: May 23, 2013, 10:35:50 PM
over all I like how the price been holding up Smiley  

Lets see how it holds up over 1 year




Here's hoping it is at the current level of Novacoin 0.03 BTC
675  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Call for The Linux Foundation to Accept Bitcoin on: May 23, 2013, 05:57:24 PM
I'm under the impression that it's better to donate to the distro(s) that you like, rather than the foundation. The foundation gets all that big corporate money and a lot of the distros don't get very much.

Is this thinking flawed?

In my opinion, donating to the foundation is like donating to a 'save the Earth' fund as opposed to donating to a distro's 'save the Whales' fund. i.e. there are no whales if there is no Earth.  Though if Debian starts accepting BTC I will be sending them as much as I can afford Wink

Now that the FSF accepts BTC donations again, this has become much more likely. This is the last bump I will do - let's see if we can get to 100 before 6/1!

Let's hope mtrlt either holds on to his GPU kernel like it appears he has to this point, or if released, it's released to all. Anything else risks the stability of the YaCoin network.

This is indeed my plan.

680  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Bug Bounty Program? on: May 23, 2013, 02:21:11 PM
Though it seems Bitcoin has a thriving community of coders and testers (as can be seen in the issues tracker), has there been any consideration made toward implementing a bounty program similar to http://www.google.com/about/appsecurity/reward-program/ - while paying in BTC of course.
