You'll need to download the new wallet and miner (or change the startT value in the .bat file for the old miner). You probably won't need a wallet or miner, since a pool will be set up so that you can start mining there from the start. I suggest using the pools from the start. It will be more secure for the entire network and you'll probably even get more from there than from solo mining.

Relaunch moved back to January 10th 17:00 (GMT) due to all the Coinye West hype.

Added pools to the OP and updated block rewards. Everything should be set for relaunch tomorrow. Website should be ready soon, too.

Relaunch date moved to January 9th and time specified as 17:00 (GMT)

Bounty for website claimed and relaunch is confirmed to have a website from launch. Thank you for all your offers.

We're looking into adding POS but it is not completely certain if we'll add it in the relaunch. We will add it at some point, though.

Yes. Even though the network seems to be working now, we can't allow one or two people to own such a big share of microCoins. There are other modifications that need to be done as well.

We are aiming at getting a pool completely working and setup for the relaunch so that everyone can mine there from the start. The block rewards will also be changed to be more fair and have less extreme changes. And most importantly the starting difficulty will be changed to higher so the same that happened today can't happen again. We are also looking at bringing POS but this is not certain. We are however going to implement POS later on. I'm certain that the relaunch will turn out much better, even more so since there is a week of time to make changes.

Well. I admit this went horribly. And I can guarantee that I am not the one getting all the blocks. Not that it matters. I'll have to restart the coin, because I don't want one or two people owning such a big chunk. As far as I am concerned, the current blockchain is not official anymore. microCoin will be relaunched with a higher difficulty and possibly changed block rewards and POS.
We deeply apologize for wasting your time. Hopefully you will still be interested when the coin is relaunched.

All of my blocks have been orphans too so far. If someone big is mining here then it is not me.

Wait for the difficulty to adjust. The difficulty is extremely low at the moment.

There should be no viruses or trojans in the miner/wallet. I'm sure these are the same "viruses" they would claim cgminer to have, too.

The qt wallet+miner and source are now available for download.

The microCoin miner comes in a download link with the wallet and is used almost exactly like cgminer.

Yes.

Yes, that's correct.

The miner is used almost exactly like cgminer so it shouldn't be hard to use if you know how to use cgminer.

I understand. And it's good that you tell people the truth. However you can see my stance on the matter a few posts above as I made a long reply to another person. microCoin doesn't really aim to be innovative, nor does it aim to be a quick buck. And as I said, POS can be implemented later when it is more relevant.

Well, my view is a bit different. First of all, no, the coin isn't meant for earning a quick buck. It can make quick money during the nfactor period for investors and miners but that's not all it's meant for. The way I see it there needs to be more cryptocurrencies that actually aim at what cryptocurrencies are good at and that is being a currency and trading instrument. I think it's not acceptable when cryptocurrencies are made with an idea that really is pointless, such as a currency that's meant for buying or trading specific things or to be used in a specific way. All of those can be done with something that just aims to be a currency in general. There is only a handful of cryptocurrencies that actually have their innovation within the coin (a new hashing algorithm with no point isn't useful innovation, either). And that's good. They aim to be something different than a virtual currency. This isn't what microCoin aims to be, though. microCoin aims to be what virtual currencies in general should be. And that is being a long-term investment than is inherently deflationary and a convenient way of storing and transferring wealth. We will create or have others create services that further help microCoin have real value and some of those services could even have innovation, even if microCoin itself isn't inherently innovative. Anyone can and has the right to choose if they leave microCoin to be a "quick buck" for them, but we will still keep developing services and helping microCoin grow.
