Yes, if your hashrate is above 10k you are probably solving Yescrypt, this coin uses YescryptR16. It's a new algorithm so you have to either use the minerd version provided by the dev or mine through the wallet.

Been mining for like 20 hours and still no block.. { "blocks" : 1330, "currentblocksize" : 1000, "currentblocktx" : 0, "difficulty" : 0.00392710, "errors" : "", "genproclimit" : 4, "networkhashps" : 130638, "pooledtx" : 0, "testnet" : false, "generate" : true, "hashespersec" : 336 } How much hashrate do u have? Network hashrate is now 130k. Same here, 5920k and a 2500k, nothing in about the same time. Blocks are not so easy to find now, I haven't found any for about 20 hours since now the difficulty is twice as high. Keep trying though and you will eventually get one.

Wow, I can't believe this has value already. I think the sell order for 2.22 BTC will sit there a while though...

how to start mining with this algo? are we still able to do solo mining on our computers? I am very interested to try it
Download the Yenten release from here: https://github.com/conan-equal-newone/yenten/releasesCreate file yenten.conf in the folder where the yentend is located and enter this information: daemon=1 server=1 port=9981 rpcport=9982 rpcuser=username rpcpassword=password addnode=133.130.66.167 addnode=52.3.229.122 Start the yenten-qt and navigate to Help > Debug window > Console Type "setgenerate true" in the console which will start the mining Check your hashrate with the command "getmininginfo" I've found 6 blocks mining solo with 5 year old computers.

Any tips on running in Linux? I'm on Ubuntu 17.10 64bit. I compiled and ran ./yentend @LinuxBeast:~/yenten/yenten/src$ ./yentend Error: To use the "-server" option, you must set a rpcpassword in the configuration file: /home/me/.yenten/yenten.conf It is recommended you use the following random password: rpcuser=xxxxxxxx rpcpassword=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (you do not need to remember this password) The username and password MUST NOT be the same. If the file does not exist, create it with owner-readable-only file permissions. It is also recommended to set alertnotify so you are notified of problems; for example: alertnotify=echo %s | mail -s "Yenten Alert" admin@foo.comSo I created a yenten.conf file in /home/me/.yenten/ using tips earlier in this thread. daemon=1 server=1 gen=1 port=9981 rpcport=9982 rpcuser=xxxxxxxxxx rpcpassword=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Addnode=133.130.66.167:9981 Addnode=52.3.229.122:9981 And the ran ./yentend again. And get this output "Yenten server starting" but it runs all cores at %100 immediately so i'm assuming something went wrong since I have not tried to mine yet, or is it mining and using the "rpcpassword=" as the mining username. Been up since early this am and i'm getting sleepy and cant think straight and I know i'm missing something simple. So i'm stuck and going to bed and will dive in again tomorrow after work. You've set gen=1 which automatically starts mining when you run the daemon, so delete that line and you should be good.

Question. How do you unlock your wallet since there is no unlock option?
Are you using yenten-qt? If so, go to Help > Debug window > Console and enter walletpassphrase [YOUR PASSWORD] [TIME IN SECONDS YOU WANT TO UNLOCK FOR] There's really no reason to unlock though unless you are trying to export your private keys or send many separate transactions at once.

How many threads is best for mining this coin? Im using ryzen 1700.
All of them.

Nice to see a coin where it is worthwhile to mine with a cpu. What are the blockrewards after the first block? Still 50 YTN?
50 YTN until halving at block 800,000. Current block is 888 and difficulty is 0.0035.

I think the pool is not working correctly right now, if it was you would see yay!! after each share. Instead just mine solo and stop running minerd, if you are doing both at the same time it explains why your solo hashrate is so low.

Hello Amd fx 8320e 8 cores I have not resolved blocks
I would just solo mine with your setup, you should easily be able to find blocks. Now I'm mining with the wallet getmininginfo 17:27:18  { "blocks" : 763, "currentblocksize" : 1000, "currentblocktx" : 0, "difficulty" : 0.00302854, "errors" : "", "genproclimit" : -6, "networkhashps" : 86587, "pooledtx" : 0, "testnet" : false, "generate" : true, "hashespersec" : 241 } It's strange that your proclimit is showing -6, it should be -1 for all processors or a positive number for anything less. If you just type "setgenerate true" it should automatically use all 6 threads. This appears to me setgenerate true  getmininginfo 17:40:34  { "blocks" : 772, "currentblocksize" : 1000, "currentblocktx" : 0, "difficulty" : 0.00264232, "errors" : "", "genproclimit" : -1, "networkhashps" : 92049, "pooledtx" : 0, "testnet" : false, "generate" : true, "hashespersec" : 304 } That's right, -1 means all threads are being used, but your hashrate seems low still since you were getting 2500 h/s with minerd.

I found 3 blocks total at the beginning across two laptops (i3 and i5) but haven't found any for about 10 hours. The difficulty has doubled, it might not be so easy now...I started at block 150.

I'm glad I saw this chart. Sometimes I get caught up in the day-to-day market and worry about missed opportunities to buy/sell when I should just HODL long-term. The crypto market is a long-term investment over many years.

It has to have a website, whitepaper, and devs interacting with the community for me to even consider spending my time with it. Too many joke coins appearing now with none of these things and poor spelling, grammar, etc. Sometimes they can't even spell their own coin correctly Don't waste your time with these.

It's great because even old computers can potentially find blocks. Dust them off and give it a try
|
|

I would never even consider investing in a coin unless it has a whitepaper, website, actual use case, and active/transparent dev team. So many worthless coins will continue to appear but if you do your research it should be easy to determine which coins are legit.

I like these CPU-only coins because they keep the decentralized philosophy of crypto by allowing anyone to mine instead of only a few big mining operations. I think we will see many more coins like this to counteract the ASICs and GPU farms.

I doubt there will ever be an official BTG wallet, just a bunch of shady wallets trying to steal your Bitcoin. If you find one that seems legit just be sure to remove all of your Bitcoin from your wallet or sweep the keys into a new Bitcoin wallet before sweeping into the BCG wallet. I would also install the BCG wallet on a separate computer that doesn't have any of your wallets. This way your funds will be safe.

I don't trust any online services so I keep all of my altcoins in their dev-approved personal wallets. You should only keep your coins in an exchange if you are planning to make a trade, otherwise get them out of there. Research past history of exchanges such as Mt. Gox and you will see why you can't trust exchanges. Even Bittrex is banning accounts with no warning recently. You don't actually own your coins unless you are in control of their private keys.
Yes, it's a pain to keep track of all the individual wallets but you won't regret it when some BS happens at the exchanges.
