i5 2500k on all night got 2 blocks 100 hdol ftw? whats the hashrate?

Huge hasherate... We must hodl this coins...

Depends, farmers will most definitely dump once its on the exchange, leaving usual miners with nothing. Anyone of you guys remember any coin with hashrate restriction?

Figured I'd jump in to see if I was lucky enough to get some blocks and seeing as the specs are an interesting experiment.
In-wallet miner is bugged, and/or so is validation or difficulty, at least for folks on Windows (no clue about Linux)
 - The wallet reports 1GB memory usage regardless of how many miner threads one selects.
 - Debug log shows that the wallet is finding blocks just about every minute, with every single one being rejected.

There's not gonna be rockets launching until these issues are fixed and people can mine.

can u make a standalone miner for it?

Heck no. I would try to help if I had a clue, but I don't speak code.

to bad.
*dev we need a standalone miner asap.. make this coin good distributed and you will have a lot of HODLers   maybe pool as next also. help us to help you!

Some of the variation that people are seeing might be down to the AES-NI instruction set.

The PoW relies heavily on the AES-NI instruction set - if your chip has AES-NI it's going to be a lot more efficient than if it doesn't. Maybe by a factor of 10. If your chip doesn't have AES-NI instructions, it's probably not worth bothering trying to mine.

any way to see how many coins are locked up?

So the search space is 1GB - if you have 8 threads running, all 8 run on the same 1GB. It completes the search faster if there are more threads. I recommend running the maximum number of threads on a single 1GB space to reduce the possibility of orphans.

The debug log message is a bit misleading - it says it's finding a block, but you'll notice the hash isn't low enough. It's not really finding a block, but rather just completing a search space.

The miner is fine - there's just a lot of miners at the moment. I'm seeing about 70 connections to the main nodes . . . with about 23 blocks an hour, you should expect a block every 3 hours with an average computer - it's difficult to know what the average computing power of each of the connections is.

I'm expecting improved miners will be created - both CPU and GPU (maybe 2X or 3X more effective) - but my focus will be on the core technology and usability.

We got a rich list here -
http://hodl.explorer.ssdpool.com:9167/richlist

balances ending in '89' are probably locked. This won't be a reliable way to identify locked balances going forward as 89 is purely a secret code in GUI but for now it's probably a good indication.

it's something, but not very reliable. I locked mine up in multiple transactions as they were maturing all to the same address so the total won't end in 89. I guess I'll miss the first pump  if there ever is one....

My windows defender is finding the "spursint.a" trojan in the zipped wallet and insta-deleting it after the download.
I guess it's just a false positive but can someone confirm?

Most qt wallet packages seem to give me the same message. This is why I always use a VM

I've added a few things to the development roadmap - let me know if there's anything else I should add -

Development Roadmap

Mac Wallet
GUI Interface to make term deposits
Fix Crash on Exit

New windows wallet miner -

This miner fixes a bug with randomization to ensure no search spaces are always fresh. It may improve performance depending on your setup.

To calculate your hashrate:

Have a look at your debug.log file - find some lines like this . . . .

2016-02-03 04:17:29 HOdlcoinMiner:
2016-02-03 04:17:29 search finished - best hash 
  hash: 000f00a8eb9fde09dcfb398de5418c7fbbcbeb4d782dfbff396cf282c339e2dd collisions:1039 gethash:000f00a8eb9fde09dcfb398de5418c7fbbcbeb4d782dfbff396cf282c339e2dd ba:31773 bb:766922187 nonce:8861
target: 00000760a6000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
2016-02-03 04:17:36 HOdlcoinMiner:
2016-02-03 04:17:36 search finished - best hash 
  hash: 001d781dccb23ed017c6b805ac596f190124c4754b60ae091cd6621563bc64d2 collisions:989 gethash:001d781dccb23ed017c6b805ac596f190124c4754b60ae091cd6621563bc64d2 ba:253952 bb:2993905001 nonce:9325

You'll see in this example that the searches are about 7 seconds apart . . . each completed search counts as approximately 1000 hashes (collisions) . . . so here there are 1000 per 7 seconds . . a rate of about 143 hash/sec. This is an i7 4770 and the overall network rate at the moment is 8417 hash/sec . . so the whole network is about as strong as 60 i7 4770's . . . . and if you're mining with an i7 4770, you would expect 1 in every 60 blocks. That's about 1 every 3 hours.

great, thanks for new update. mining

can u use same address for multiply term deposits or will that result with some kind of conflict?

Is there an IRC or Slack channel?

You can use the same address - no problem.

Not yet. I think a Slack channel would be a good idea.
