Bitcoin was already re-launched twice, once as Terracoin and again as Bytecoin.

True. I'll add details and stop assuming people can read my mind. I mean, is the CPU mining only thing still a relevant advantage or have people figured out how to get a lot more juice out of their GPU's with it yet? In which case wouldn't that make a re-launch not as good... That's exactly why a relaunch wouldn't work. Though I've seen no evidence, there's already conspiracy theorists claiming that several have adapted the new scrypt algo to GPUs in private. These people will still complain regardless. It is non-trivial to port the code to GPUs and while it is *possible* someone has already done it, it's really unlikely. |

I've always thought vircurex admin were noobs, looks like I might be right. There's a reason that exchange never gained popularity.
I agree, the site was always extremely buggy, needless to say I never trusted it and didn't leave my coins on there for long. |

The pool is setup to wait for 540 confirms before paying Lol. The fail is strong with this one. Why's that? You have to wait for 540 confirms before a block is accepted, that's how YACoin works. |

Same thing happened when Litecoin was released. Some people will have more of an advantage than you. Not much you can do other than deal with it.

The client tells you:

219.42059696 FTC? No deal.
I'll do it for 219.42059697 FTC
(just kidding, not even interested but had to make fun of that).

Didn't come with the games? It should, AMD said so in the product announcement, maybe contact the retailer you bought from.
Thanks for the impressions. I too am curious how it performs mining scrypt, and what the temps are like.
These cards are selling out fast, never see them in stock on Newegg...

I am not sure if it was just me or my computer running Ubuntu 12.10, but this is the route I took thanks to all of the support I received here. Below is the instructions step by step that I used. # sudo apt-get install qt4-qmake libqt4-dev build-essential libboost-dev libboost-system-dev libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-thread-dev libssl-dev libdb5.3++- dev # sudo apt-get install git # sudo apt-get install bitcoind # sudo git clone https://github.com/pocopoco/yacoin# cd yacoin/src # Edit net.cpp in yacoin/src on line 28 and change static const int MAX_OUTBOUND_CONNECTIONS = 8; to static const int MAX_OUTBOUND_CONNECTIONS = 1000; <--- or whatever you want 200 is probably a bit more conservative # sudo apt-get install libminiupnpc-dev # make -f makefile.unix # Then run the client in daemon mode. ./yacoind -daemon -gen -addnode=82.211.30.212 # Once compiled run the client and set the yacoin.conf # to do that run editor /home/"YOURUSERNAME"/.yacoin/yacoin.conf and copy the rpcuser and pass that is generated on the screen # Then run the client in daemon mode. ./yacoind -daemon -gen -addnode=82.211.30.212 Then you can run the commands from here https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Original_Bitcoin_client/API_calls_listto check the state. The only one you really need is ./yacoind getstatus P.S. since 82.211.30.212 is in the EU, it would help to run a VPN etc that is in or near Germany... If you found this useful YJoLsK17Z78C5dndqhh5os1mKnXcnUR2qM I got stuck at the makefile: "me@ubuntu:~/yacoin/src$ make -f makefile.unix g++ -c -O2 -msse2 -pthread -Wall -Wextra -Wformat -Wformat-security -Wno-unused-parameter -g -DBOOST_SPIRIT_THREADSAFE -I/home/harry/yacoin/src -I/home/me/yacoin/src/obj -DUSE_UPNP=0 -DUSE_IPV6=1 -DSCRYPT_KECCAK512 -DSCRYPT_CHACHA -DSCRYPT_CHOOSE_COMPILETIME -DHAVE_BUILD_INFO -fno-stack-protector -fstack-protector-all -Wstack-protector -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -MMD -MF obj/alert.d -o obj/alert.o alert.cpp In file included from alert.h:13:0, from alert.cpp:8: util.h:27:25: fatal error: openssl/sha.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated. make: *** [obj/alert.o] Error 1" How would a Linux noob like me continue?

The hashrate will drop quick as BTB is now less profitable to mine than BTC.
I'll continue mining it even if it's slightly less profitable. But right now at this stage of the game that's not even a big deal. It's actually a good thing as it gets BitBar out of the pump and dump spotlight. As pointed out earlier, that sort of stuff kills a coin early on. |

JKC I can't see hitting an exchange, and RYC JUST launched yesterday... give it some time.

Completely false, I started mining around block 100 and the rate was 1 block was found on the network per 3 seconds roughly.
And the 5x block reward is NOTHING compared to 70% of all bitbars being mined within 30 ins. That coin is a joke and a half.
Taking block rewards into account at least 375000 RYC were mined during the first 30 mins actually, and how many are in circulation now? At ~5700 network blocks at least 50% of current circulation were mined within the first hour, and block rate has gone down massively since due to quick difficulty adjustments. Bitbar is premined garbage, 70% of all bitbars were created in the first 30 mins. Scam scam scam. RYC network hash rate was over 2gh then someone decided to ddos the pools. They just can't handle the explosive growth  Umm... RYC had a block reward 5x the normal rate for the first 500, and that likely went to 1 or 2 miners, as a GPU can chew through 100s of blocks per second at such a low difficulty. We will see when a block explorer shows up. So it's also premined garbage by your logic. Beyond that there's nothing unique about RYC, it's CHNCoin 2.0. It's even attracting similar DDOS attacks. BitBar and YACoin are the only two emerging alts that have potential right now. Only reason you're hyping this coin is because you got in on it early. So, you are telling me that BitBar's block reward and start diff was not a massive scam? Oh, ok.. No, I don't really care about the premine. I happen to like BitBar because it's more than just a copycat. just pointing out the stupidity of calling BitBar a premine but not RYC. Be consistent... |

Big deal... royalcoin hit 2GH already  BitBar hash rate has been growing steadily over the past week. Let's see where Royalcoin is a week from now. IMO it's the next CHN and not doing even half as well. Look at the buy orders for it, bunch of people are offering 1-5 LTC for 1K RYC. That's JunkCoin territory lol. |

I mined around 400 on win 7 with i5 3570k oc'ed to 4.5Ghz
I was even late to party and running it in a sandbox for a few hours
So windows mining was differently possible
I think the biggest problem was/is network latency.
You can have a SUPER fast computer, but if your net is slow with high latency you will never get those solved blocks accepted since someone with better network latency already got their block accepted before you..
This. Latency is the biggest factor, at low difficulty it doesn't matter whether you're putting out a couple hundred kH/s faster than the other guy if he's on a better network as his shares will get accepted before yours. |

Try: make clean -f makefile.unix
make -f makefile.unix |
|

I got it too build doing this: put build.h into src and src/obj comment out the line "/bin/sh ../share/genbuild.sh ..." in makefile.unix make -f makefile.unix #define BUILD_DESC "v0.6.3.0-g3aaa7ba-beta"
#define BUILD_DATE "2013-05-09 02:02:57 +0400"
also works well with a litecoin pushpool so far 1 accepted out of 200(started around block 83), with 74 connections (i opened the port router side) Works, thanks! |
