[ANN] Expanse (EXP) - 1st Stable fork of Ethereum (New Algo + PirlGuard)

[Hazcat]

We need a pool up so its fair atleast to a point for those noobs like me

ocminer will hopefully have the pool up in 5-7 hours from now at https://exp.suprnova.cc .

If he wants to bring the pool up sooner that would be nice, but it is his pool and up to him. (Although you can pre register and get ready)

Would be awesome if he did. He makes a few from everyone so he gets something from it

[SpeedDemon13]

Difficulty 2.6 G now. Started at 1.0 G

That's why the blocks are still coming fast.

I could understand from his perspective, he wants the pool to run smooth. Letting the network settle before staring it would minimize the issues.

I give up i have 1 computer  R9 380 getting like 100 coins i min is now up to over 700
another compurer 2 x R9 290x getting coins slowly and is up to 288
and a 3rd computer R9 270x getting coins same speed as the 2 x 290x

all running the same details so im assuming i have 3 different accounts?

How do i know if im connect to the right chain or blocks or even bloody coin?

Win 10 btw

ho wmuch hashrate you have with 1x R9 380?

[SpeedDemon13]

So without peers solo mining is worthless...

Without peers, you can not update to the latest block/chain, which in turn you can not solo mine and/or send or receive EXP.

[TheGift73]

Are there any clear and concise instruction on how to mine using Windows? (x64) I have tried following the instructions for Windows and it just doesn't work.

In the updated instructions, it starts with:

Doubleclick Setup_Step2_genesis.bat

Then:

Doubleclick Start_Expanse.bat

and finally:

Doubleclick Start_Mining.bat

I do all the above in sequence and nothing happens. If I run any of them as administrator, it just flashed up the cmd window and then disappears.

Also, and this may not have anything to do with it at all, but if I run Setup_Step_1_new_account.bat (which aren't in the instructions) It will allow me to type y/n for the terms etc, but when it asks me to type in a passphrase, it won't let me type anything?

380 = ~19
270x = ~ 17.9
2 x 290x = ~ 51

From what I'm seeing

[andyatcrux]

Dang, I missed the launch  . Well, mining now.

[Xdragon]

YES, you get coins, but they are worthless. Many users mining on test net , and think they have a lot of coins. Launch was not so smooth after all, but everything looks smooth

[reb0rn21]

Who lost peer`s just restart expanse

I still have two from the start

pool is not advised in first 12h or more, get used! if fork ppl will just blame pool and everthing

You have to make sure to close the genesis bat after you run it. Also, make sure no other instances of the wallet is running.

So how do i know i'm correctly connected and not mining on my own chain?

I took the other user's nodes and put them into the proper format for copypasta

I get ~74 to 76~ off of 3x HD 7970, that's about 24~25 each gpu. 7970 is the same like the 280x
