stil nothing with my i7, but i'm using only 3 core otherwise i will not be able to do anything else
how long does it take for 1 block?
This is odd.. I have a i7-3820 running 8 cores 100% and I have a lot open.. 2 windows of chrome open with 50+ tabs open in them.. 1 firefox window open with 20 tabs open.. Adobe PS open with 8 windows open inside 8 windows of Putty open excel open.. 4 other wallets open 23 windows of Paint open.. all on 3 monitors Sidenote 3 threads will round up to 4.. Threads must be powers of 2 (2,4,8...) |

Ok we are added a BTC donation address to the CPU miner bounty... Some of you may not have HOdl to donate and this will give you a way to get your PC's mining HODlcoin in a pool.. Both freetrade and I will hodl the private Key in case something bad happens to one of us.. at time of post we have 0.103944 BTC https://blockchain.info/address/1BountyELvhYAqKFPr6aFCBKyAJTjywoqW |

This is interesting the other wallet that I have that can mine on wallet with built in mining is bytecoin I'm glad there is another one like Bytecoin I will get the wallet and start mining this coin one of the thing that also attracted me to this coin is the POS intererest It's important to know that HOdlcoin is 100% PoW.. we are not PoS.. interest is a new function added to the blockchian.. everyone earns interest evenly and you dont have to have a wallet open on your PC.. |

Is it possible to change the RAM usage on a windows wallet, if so how?
If you missed it and don't feel like reading through the thread to use -miningaddress="address" and or optimize your miner see below 1. Make sure your wallet is closed 2. Make sure your Hodlcoin-qt.exe is on your Desktop 3. Bring up Run (Press [Window] + [R] on your keyboard) 4. Paste below in Run %userprofile%\Desktop\HOdlcoin-qt.exe -gen=1 -minermemory=2 -genproclimit=4 -miningaddress="address" *Note put your address in place of "address" like this "HEX8QLWqQ7p7MFNiN8CMrMjC2CYAy8pwi9" **Note minermemory should be "1" or "2" on windows any higher and you ger a Runtime error ***Note minermemory is the amount of Ram your using and must be multiplied by genproclimit to equal totale Threads you would like to use example (-minermemory=2 -genproclimit=4 is 8 Threads) I see now, thanks!  If you don't want to type it out every time you start the wallet you can just make a batch file in the same location as your wallet that says the same thing and just click the batch file to start your miner. If you don't know how, just make a .txt file with notepad and once you save it, change the file extension type to .bat In note pad type this rpcuser=username
rpcpassword=password
rpcport=11989
gen=1
minermemory=2
genproclimit=4
miningaddress=yourwalletaddresshere
Then Save like this 1. In the Save as type dropdown box Select: All Files2. File name: hodlcoin.conf3. Save it to hodlcoin folder Note: if you need help finding the folder just save it to the Desktop, then Search for %appdata%\hodlcoin Drag/Drop new hodlcoin.conf from Desktop to hodlcoin folder |

I'm interested in mining HODL on a VPS, does vultr or digitalocean care about the constant 100% CPU usage?
Has any of you gotten a dispute over it? if not, how has the mining been going in terms of hashrate? I have $20 lying around to spend on a VPS.
I haven't seen too much back lash from mining on these services.. but you should read all the terms.. that out of the way.. your best bet would be Vultr.. Hash is subjective.. so I cant give you a nice chart but on avg. we are seeing ~15h/s per vCPU/core Ah, so it'd be similar to mining HODL on my i5-4590. I get around 80 h/sec with 1GB assigned, I have tried running with 2GB, I did not see an improvement even after adding up the halved hashrate. So far I've found two blocks within a day and that was two weeks ago (CPU was running at 80C)  Since then I've ordered a heatsink and it's been running at 40C at full load, I could keep my PC running all day long mining HODL, I'm interested what are the chances of finding a block with such hardware, I've read that you guys were sometimes really lucky to find 6 blocks in a day with a VPS. Though it's fun being part of a fair mining competition, compared to an altcoin launch that uses a SHA256/SCRYPT POW. Adding up all the costs, I'd say mining HODL is profitable in the long run, though I'm really new to all of this. If anyone is mining on a laptop or desktop, a high CPU temperature is what you should be worried about, get a cheap heatsink for your PC, if you're on a laptop, clean the dust out and make sure it has a good airflow so it doesn't overheat. Well 6 blocks per day right now is running many servers.. like 56 vCPU Edit: sry I was a way off.. 56 vCPU is more like 13 blocks per day |

Sorry to interrupt OP but I just want to know if this alt mining can work with a laptop? is this profitable or not? I wanted to try this but First I want an honest opinion with you or with someone who already dealing with is, btc mining with my laptop is no longer profitable so I'm looking forward to try mining alt if possible, thanks for the reply OP.
We have seen guys with as little as 8h/s get blocks.. luck plays a part with that hashrate.. but if you cruse through the main thread.. you will see ppl mining with laptops.. For anyone who thinks Mining a block is too hard the 5 year old crappy laptop hit 2 block last night. My desktop 2x times faster 2 x the threads nothing. old hp lappy hits 2 overnight this shit should go in the newspapers. Anyway Miners keep your chin up it happens. Happy day.

I'm on the debug log thing but there is no hashes per second,
All I see is a bunch of roots and hashes and Blokc:Cblockindex, etc.
PM me in slack |

It has been a while since i last mined some alts, but i'm actually compiling your daemon on a test server right now Nice!! pop in Slack if you need any help |

I found an old laptop and waited for it to sync, and I set mining to "solo mining on".
How do I know if it's mining in the background? Also, sorry for all the questions but I have one more :-)
How do I find my HODL address?
Thank you for all the help!
To know your mining see this guide https://github.com/HOdlcoin/HOdlcoin/blob/HODLCoin0.11.3/doc/README.mdin that guide you will see this info Once you have have started mining in the lower right corner, you will see the  switch to the Pickaxe  From this  To this  To find your hash First push this button  Then scroll to the bottom  |

Are there any mining tutorials for someone on Ubuntu? I've never had any experience with it and can't go back to Windows.. Would be really nice to try and mine this coin seeing as it has a very interesting concept. I'd be very grateful if someone could help me understand how to mine on my old PC  Please use the above guides I'm working on a better guide right now.. also we have an active Slack community at Slack use this link to join the chat http://slack.hodlcoin.com |
