Unitus (UIS) - Superior Blockchain Technology: 1st Multi-Algo Merge-Mined

[Conqueror]

X11, Lyra2re, Skein, Qubit, Yescrypt pool operators can merge mine for UIS.
Here is tutorial how to do it (Lyra2re example):

Install prerequisites:
sudo apt-get install build-essential git -y
sudo apt-get install python2.7-dev -y
sudo apt-get install python-zope.interface python-twisted python-twisted-web -y

Download & Compile required hash function:
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/metalicjames/lyra2re-hash-python.git
cd ~/lyra2re-hash-python
sudo python setup.py install
cd ~
sudo rm -rf lyra2re-hash-python

Download P2Pool and modern interface:
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/metalicjames/p2pool-Lyra2RE.git
cd ~/p2pool-Lyra2RE
mv web-static{,.old}
git clone https://github.com/justino/p2pool-ui-punchy web-static

Start P2Pool:

First, replace the following with your details -
{unitus-username} = RPC Username set in your unitus.conf file
{unitus-password} = RPC Password set in your unitus.conf file
{ip-address-of-unitus-wallet} = IP address of the computer running the Unitus wallet, or 127.0.0.1 if on same computer as P2Pool
{vertcoin-username} = RPC Username set in your vertcoin.conf file
{vertcoin-password} = RPC Password set in your vertcoin.conf file
{ip-address-of-vertcoin-wallet} = IP address of the computer running the Vertcoin wallet, or 127.0.0.1 if on same computer as P2Pool

If Vertcoin is running on the same machine -
./run_p2pool.py --net vertcoin --merged http://{unitus-username}:{unitus-password}@{ip-address-of-unitus-wallet}:50604 {vertcoin-username} {vertcoin-password}

Otherwise -
./run_p2pool.py --net vertcoin --merged http://{unitus-username}:{unitus-password}@{ip-address-of-unitus-wallet}:50604 --bitcoind-address {ip-address-of-vertcoin-wallet} {vertcoin-username} {vertcoin-password}

As an example:

./run_p2pool.py --net vertcoin --merged http://unitus:P@ssw0rd123@127.0.0.1:50604 vertcoin P@ssw0rd123

Apparently jwinterm figured out how to solo mine UIS, so here is his solomining tutorial!

OK. Here goes the shortish version:

1) Sync daemons for both Myriadcoin and Unitus, and set up conf files for both of them specifying rpcuser, rpcpassword, rpcport, algo=qubit, and server=1.


2) Install Python 2.7 and get:
Linux:

Code:

sudo apt-get install python-zope.interface python-twisted python-twisted-web
sudo apt-get install python-argparse # if on Python 2.6

Windows:
Install Python 2.7: http://www.python.org/getit/
Install Twisted: http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/Downloads
Install Zope.Interface: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/zope.interface/3.8.0
Install python win32 api: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32/Build%20218/
Install python win32 api wmi wrapper: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/WMI/#downloads


3) Download and unzip this repo somewhere, like /home/youruser/p2pool-myrQubit or c:\p2pool-myrQubit - https://github.com/birdonwheels5/p2pool-myrQubit


4) Build qubit.c hash
Linux:
Go to directory where you unzipped repo and go to qubitcoin-hash subfolder and run:

Code:

sudo python setup.py install

Windows:
Install MinGW.
Create the following file 'C:\Python27\Lib\distutils.cfg' (or wherever you installed python)
Add the following lines to distutils.cfg:

Code:

[build]
compiler=mingw32

Open MinGW and go to the directory where qubitcoin-hash is:

Code:

cd /c/p2pool-myrQubit/qubitcoin-hash

Then run:

Code:

/c/Python27/python.exe setup.py install

(or wherever you installed python)


5) Create a script to launch p2pool
Linux:
Create a file called launch_p2pool.sh or something with contents like:

Code:

python /path/to/p2pool/p2pool-myrQubit-master/run_p2pool.py --net myriadcoin --bitcoind-rpc-port 50554 --merged http://unitusRPCuser:unitusRPCpassword@127.0.0.1:50550 -a YourMyriadcoinAddress myriadRPCuser myriadRPCpassword

Windows:
Create a file called launch_p2pool.bat or something with contents like:

Code:

c:\python27\python.exe c:\path\to\p2pool-myrQubit-master\run_p2pool.py --net myriadcoin --bitcoind-rpc-port 50554 --merged http://unitusRPCuser:unitusRPCpassword@127.0.0.1:50550 -a YourMyriadcoinAddress myriadRPCuser myriadRPCpassword

6) Download sgminer from here if you're on windows: http://cryptomining-blog.com/4819-new-sgminer-with-optimized-quark-and-qubit-kernels/
Otherwise just download latest release from nicehash or build from github. By default you will mine on port 5567, so stratum+tcp://127.0.0.1:5567, and you can set your username to be a myr address (or whatever I think), and don't forget to add "no-extranonce": true in the pool fields.



Let me know if you have any problems or anything.

Messing around with logo:



None of them scale to low res well at all. It's really not easy to make something simple that is attractive that scales well to low-res. Starting to appreciate nzsquirrell's logo much more

Hello 
i want to ask something does mining a specific algorithm rise the diff of the another algorithms within the same range of the first one

No each algorithm adjusts its difficulty independently.

Why was the coin delisted from Poloniex? Lack of volume or technical problems?

It would be close impossible now to get it back on Polo.

yeah its impossible to to get back there ... even hard to go to shittrex

Well there is always Yobit and their 0.5 BTC add fee. They seam to be getting a lot of volume lately.

I might pay for Yobit addition after we establish new price above 500 sat.

Lack of volume as poloniex does periodical cleanups

Make sure to buy some cheap coins before the end of May.

Wouldn't it save a lot of time getting to 500 if we just go to Yobit without waiting?

May be set up a BTC deposit address for Yobit donations. If 10 people donate 0.05 BTC and we are GG.

P.s. Don't set UIS donations, it's pointless at these prices and we will just dump the price.

Good idea

EDIT: today I filled request for addition on Yobit (free version)
they also offer 0.1BTC variant

lot of solid development going on in the background

Unitus wallet for Raspbian!

Download:
http://unitus.nutty.one/files/unitus-0.9.6.2-armhf-debian.tar.xz

Instructions:

Install dependances for the daemon and cli tool :
sudo apt-get install libboost-chrono1.55.0 libboost-filesystem1.55.0 libboost-program-options1.55.0 libboost-thread1.55.0 libboost-system1.55.0

Install extra dependances for the QT wallet - requires those for the daemon as well -
sudo apt-get install libqtgui4 libqtcore4 libqtdbus4 qrencode libprotobuf9 libqt4-xml libqt4-network

then extract the files in the archive:
sudo tar xf unitus-0.9.6.2-armhf-debian.tar.xz -C /usr/bin

and you are ready to go!

I personally tested this wallet on rPI3 and works fine. Big thanks to unitus developer nzsquirrell for doing this!

EDIT:
As headless rPI can run comfortably from 5V cell phone charger, it seems to be ideal for staking or running full node 24/7.
Well as unitus is not stakeable (yet?) running full node is great option to support network for very little cost.
p2p port for UIS is 50603
You need to forward this port on your home router(s) to run full node
