From my standpoint the cpu and ram usage of mintcoin are too high, i have a sub-average computer however.

30-50% cpu usage of a dual core and 700 MB on a 3 GB physical ram system (while regularly using up to 1.5 GB virtual ram, which gives massive lag when it is being assigned).

If it did, that would be stupid, as even with all (smart)phones of the world you wouldnt be able to mine even a single bitcoin in less than over 10k years, from what a study found out.

According to MyBitMine (Michael the admin) not even cpu-mining via browser (the said St. Bernard Lake feature of MBM), yields anything to compensate the expenses given with 18 satoshis per hour. You can see this for yourself by going to minergate and trying web-mining there (needs an account to accumulate any crypto coins), its the same as the api used on MyBitMine.

It does indeed gulp down a lot of cpu/ram while running the syncing process. But my experience lies with the wallet not daemon.

*not fixed
*not using that
*seems like it...
*yep

lag issue was made worse tho...
not just for him.

The current balance would support this theory: "Mintcoin Faucet balance: -828.5 MINT"

Mintcoin faucet on
http://www.multifaucet.tk/index.php?referral=3509
ran dry, if anyone cares to donate some mintcoins.

Seeing from what happened with HYPER, it will be removed if no donations are received...

It certainly runs the correct version from hardfork, made sure to give GrinZ (the owner) the post about it prior to hardfork and was successfully claiming from it the past days too.

Probably ready to mint by now... seeing as 20 days have passed since first claim.

Thanks for mentioning that, if everyone would stop quoting & replying to ozycash now, we can go back to having an enjoyable discussion thread.

Was hit by lagging issues all day on my Nexus 4 device, yesterday.

Trying to login via website... doesn't work today.

Pretty sure missed the payout of yesterday as well and website keeps saying NaN or none BTC amount as reward since yesterday.

Project already dying so soon? Oo

Edit: App still accepts logins...  and shows the continued balance from yesterday (on a side-note: it did correctly reset my balance day before yesterday to yesterday), seems like we doing 2 days in a row without reset this time. Rank displayed in app is still incorrect too.

noticed the same weirdness, app constantly tells me: 4 or 5, while web says 10+ rank.

You could always open your task manager (at least thats what it was called in WinXP) and assign only 1 cpu core to your browser, that way it won't slow down your computer due to st. bernard lake: con is that your browser is probably lagging while saint bernard lake is running (and might even lag if its not running, due to insufficient cpu resources available).

It would inflate bitcoins so much that they would be worth less than they were when first introduced. xD

Since you can ~possibly~ get better rates exchanging with shapeshift by sending them the exact amounts, i would say: fix the 6 decimals to become 8 or tell shapeshift to only use 6.... tho that poses completely different problems (since their other coins will rely on these two decimals too and can't just be removed from one currency).

Sorry for late reply, had some virus troubles.

The first reset it left me with all my balance from the previous day (the one i talked about in quote), the next reset i had about 10,000th of the previous balance (some 190 million on the day before, 19k after reset), didn't see what today reset brought yet (and can't remember my balance from yesterday anyway).

Just to be sure: what is supposed to happen with balance upon daily reset? If nothing carries over from the previous day, we would constantly be stuck with the same 24/7 active tapping people to win first 3 ranks.

Can we have a banner to advertise with?

Could i also know how the reset of ingame balance works? Does it ever reset and at what time (like only when you received the rank 1 reward)? I did notice that i got both my (low) reward prize paid out AND kept my ingame balance (but lost all ugprades as should happen).

Seems like any idle miner so far... except that the scoreboard seemms jumbled up a lot (hence the "secret" algorythm being used to determine ranking).

Windows Wallet download in OP is broken (returns a 404 page), probably due to HYPER website having been hacked/off and remade. Can we have a new link or is the wallet linked on GP's website still up-to-date?

Well, not that i didn't see something like this coming starting from the point HYIP (High Yield Investment Plan, for those not accustomed to it) were added to the site, but really - anyone believe the story with a hacker? Probably have to be blind, deaf and dumb to believe that.

#1 eMail address hack will only give access to the eMail addresses login and from then on you can do password resets on every account YOU KNOW about, so unless he has a nice and tidy list of all his accounts in one of his mails... or alternatively a mail corresponds with his username of every site he uses, this is pretty much useless - except for the known sites where everyone knows him by the usual name (xPooky).

#2 15 BTC ransom is nothing short of stupid. Just imagine how much people have put into the game alone (hundreds of bitcoins... if not more), if he really had so many domains and other websites, you can imagine that the ransom-person would set some proper amount (as "he" says to have access to so-and-so many accounts). - And that as well:
#3 With over half a million results found on google, Thomas Holzer is more likely just taken from the internet, rather than being his real name.

#4 The HIYP feature Is/was obviously a ponzi, it can't run forever and still pay the admin enough without shutting it down after a while (in the usual manner: site was "hacked", user accounts were "hacked", admin account was "hacked", wallet was "hacked", payment API suddenly broken, site suddenly gone, et cetera and so on ... while "hacked" of course, means nothing else than admin fooling people into thinking that he really was hacked to "lose the money to himself", so to speak).

#5 Why he wasn't hacked the moment he had all CryptoSpots in the site's wallet is simple: if you got all coins of a cryptocurrency, you can't trade them with anyone (to make profit), therefore making this scheme not work out. It's also entirely possible that he wanted to seperate website & CS coins to execute the above explained "hack".


But in the end they always come back...

Summary of my post haha:

Now at 63.88%, most recent block downloaded is 1,126,493.

Edit: and the problem persists with this percentage.
Edit2: No wait! it went 1k blocks further now (then stuck again), guess this part will take a whole lot of time (just like syncing HunterCoin from scratch manually...)

Not sure why but my wallet stays at exactly 63.86% sync rate, then gets stuck there and synchronises again to that % point when shut down and started again.

Is there any known fix for this?
Using Mintcoin qt v2.0.0.1 for win32.

Other than the described issue, it has been syncing fine so far.

It did yesterday, but stopped working just on time when i came back checking today. -_-' (if you go by my local time that is: day before yesterday and yesterday respectively at time of post)

Edit: typo fixed
