Fail, Windows wallet wont run on my Win8.1 PC.

It is going to take ages for for 6xx blocks to be solved.

Having said this, I am not in this coin for the short term profit. Of the meaningful alt coins out there I think this one has tremendous potential due to its inherent properties and is undervalued a lot. The current slow down is because of the profit chasers going after the other alt coins. Patience is a virtue and those with patience on this coin will be rewarded in the end once the growing pains have been sorted out. There are a lot of pump and dump opportunities out there with other alt coins, but this is the coin I would rather collect and point my miners at. Of course there are a various things that can kill it, but with overall maturity from everyone and support from the devs this coin can become big.

Thanks. PMed my address to you.

Ok thanks. Please help me with my maths. With about 1.5MH I get around 200EXE per day at a normal pool.  If my mean on P2Pool is around 2.5EXE, this means that the P2Pool has to solve around 80 blocks for me to earn 200EXE per day. Am I calculating correct? I just pointed my miners to the P2Pool again to do further testing.

In the P2Pool stats, what does the mean of lets say 2.5EXE mean? It is 2.5EXE per block or per hour, per megahash?

I see some payouts coming though after 6 hours, so perhaps I need to do the calculations again because it is not as fast than a normal pool. Comparison of profitability  of P2Pool vs Pool must to be done over longer periods.

you can add these numbers directly after your address

+0.00011641 for 100khs
+0.00023283 for 200khs
+0.00034924 for 300khs
etc

It's always +0.00011641 multiplied by your hashrate / 100. So if you have 2000 kHs you'll add

20 x 0.00011641 = 0.00232828

which gives you this:


also remember:

I tried it but I get a 25% stale share rate. It just seems that the payout is less than a normal pool with all those stale shares. I get <1% stales and rejects on a normal pool.

There is also EXEcoin that uses scrypt-n. A really cool coin that needs a few exchanges.

Thanks

What is the advantage of P2Pool over a normal pool?

How does payout work in a P2Pool?

When will EXE be added to other exchanges than NXT?

I don't think one would be mining EXE for its current price, but for its future price. Even though the price has gone up a lot since its launch, it would not be wise to sell now.

If you get 40-50% of normal scrypt hash rate you are on par. You can also use VertiKev's Vertminer and fine tune with -rawintensity instead of -I. It gives similar linear configurability than -xIntensity with sgminer.

Ok thanks. What happens to orphan blocks, are they gone or does it go to the devs?

What would the reason be for a solved Exe block not to appear in my wallet? I set up solo mining to try it out and my miners found 3 blocks. 2 x 50 coins appeared in my wallet but 1 x 50 coins are missing. Will it appear sometime or is it gone forever? Accepted is 3, rejected 0 and stale 0.

I wonder whether all the pool disconnects are DDoS attacks causing the stratum to become full and fall over. The switching to backup pools are causing a lot of lost shares.

As far as I understand the increase in processing speed will be offset by the increase in difficulty in order to maintain the block rate. In theory you can build super computers that will do super fast processing but at insanely high difficulty. In comparison drop the difficulty to almost zero and use a few CPUs like in the early days to process to achieve the same result.

ASICs put more power in an individuals hands to process much faster more efficiently. Due to the high cost only a select few that can afford it will have the processing power. The end result is that processing will be in the hands of a few people/farms because most people cannot afford it. Adaptive scrypt-n makes it difficult to develop and use ASICs and therefor mining coins based on this algorithm stays true to one of the core principles of cryptocurrency which is distributed processing/mining by many ordinary people on the street. This principle also helps with the distribution of new coins over a wide base which is good for acceptance of a digital currency as payment method. ASICs are therefore a tool to satisfy a greedy few.

@lazycoins How quick will deposits show in one's exchange account especially for Vertcoin and Execoin? Are we talking about minutes or will it be hours?

@execoin, do you have a rough ETA for adding to Cryptsy?
