It will provide only a webpage of pool status like this:

other information can be retrieved by exploring the blockchain.

I'm interested to see exactly what you're going to do with these coins....

An alpha version of my PoB Pool coming soon. Looking for testers.

Cant wait to see how many dumb suckers send coins your way Smiley

Is there a way to join the PoB pool without trusting coins to some random internet stranger? Like a trustless solution?

If there is, I not found it.

I want to be clear and honest from now.
  • I will not release the source code of pool because it is write from scratch by me and I do not want clones of my work. If someone is curious and want see parts of code, he can contact me by PM.
  • The pool's fee will be 2%:
    • 1% regular fee
    • 1% will be burned
  • It will provide only a webpage of pool status like this:

    other information can be retrieved by exploring the blockchain.

I think slimcoin went on vacation for a week or maybe two, he doesn't even know about the current forks.

And perhaps his nodes went down as well..

I think too. I am working on PoB pool and he stop reply to my questions from 8th August. Anyway, the code is almost done, I am looking for testers  Grin

Anyone minting with POB? I did not mint any since 25/7/2014. I have tried several times to redownload the blockchain deleting everything but the wallet from slimcoindev with the maxconnections=1 but i wonder why i am not mining anymore. I used to get consistently 4-5 pob mints every day, and not a single in two days?

0 PoB also here. I am waiting for new wallet Smiley

The reason why I have delayed this update is because I am currently working on a static cross-compiling environment that will compile 100% static binaries for Linux and windows. So far I got the windows binaries to work, I am currently working on Linux.
When Linux one is ready I will try cross-compile to ARM in order tu rum the deamon on my mobile  Wink

Io giro sotto Archlinux, OpenCL funzionante con driver ATI open. (Reference: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1392795)
Miner: Bfgminer, AFAIK l'unico che supporta i driver open sources. Gli altri miner non riescono a creare il kernel OpenGL perchč manca il supporto ad alcune funzioni OpenGL.
Esito: Lo schermo sfarfalla 2 o 3 volte poi si spegne e non so pił nulla.

I am burning coins but no resoults. How may coins are you burning? How many coins you gain and how often?

@slimcoin
If I understand right, higher is the number of burned coin, higher is the probability that your burn hash is accepted by the network. In my case, I do not have much computational power -> my mine gains are low -> I can not burn many coins -> My burn hases will be never accepted -> I lost my coins. This is not true for big miners where PoB amplify their gains. Finally also if is possible mine burn hash with low end computers, is not possible gain if you not have high end hardware for mining.
I think that your fondamental idea with slimcoin is fairness, but currently look like be some bugs on your design. What about change the way to calculate the multiplier ?  A raw formula can be:

                   this help small miners                            this help PoB investors                     this adjust gain
                                V                                                           V                                              V
1 - ((num of burned coin / total received coin) * (num of burned coin / current balance) * some magic constant < 1 )

95A31: Could you convert those patches to pull requests on Github.
Done  Wink. The IRC channel is on FreeNode?

What are some ways of gaining popularity and have more people know of this coin that have worked. I would love to make this a community effort to make this coin gain speed.
Hi,
I like Slimcoin and the fact that the developer use Linux as main OS.

About your question:
1) Make easier Slimcoin access by keeping in mind that most of the users have not developer' skills:
1.1) Provide full static version of wallet and miner, both Windows and Linux (VirtualBox is your friend). I have updated current git wallet to QT5: 0001-Add-compatibility-with-QT5.patch, it compile fine on Arch Linux.
1.2) Provide FAQ/Monkey-proof guide for explain why and how (timing, rates, ...) the "I burned X SLC" -> "I gained X+Y SLC" step is done. This allow to users to find out their personal max profit burned_coin/time rate.

2) Add SlimCoin on specialized sites (e.g. http://cpucoinlist.com/)

3) Bcz CoOL is b377er:
3.1) Improve site by more specific sections (e.g. Home, Info, Documentation, Downloads, Pools, Exchanges)
3.2) Adjust wallet layout to fit in 1366x768 screens: 0002-Adjust-layout-to-fin-in-1366x768-screens.patch
