[NEW CURRENCY] Maria 2.0 was banned, here is her proof. The birth of Bytecoin!

I was solo mining overnight and have 11 accepted shares, but hours later I haven't received anything? I've been using GUI miner.

When you solo mine there is no definite reward, at least for a while. Solo Mining differs from Pool Mining in that you are trying to generate a block on your own, so instead of being paid for each share you generate (As in Pool Mining - Generally the reward of a block is split up between many miners based on the amount of shares they have submitted), you are only paid when you generate a valid block, and the difficulty has risen a lot since yesterday on the bytecoin network, so this would be quite a feat without a lot of hashing power (e.g. a few GH/s).

TL;DR You would probably be better off pool mining (If you don't have vast amounts of hashing power)

Ok, thanks. This is my first time mining without a pool, and I didn't expect shares to be accepted unless they were new blocks. I'll probably just keep solo mining then until a reliable pool pops up.

Started for fun and to be possibly the first physical sale of an item ever for Bytecoins:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=166110.0

It is an auction for a 1 oz .999 silver 2010 Canadian Maple leaf!

I would bid, but I only have 11 BTE on my personal account

EDIT: It now seems that someone has put my personal address into the faucet, so I not have 11.1 BTE
I'm going to add a filter to block my addresses from being paid, as the faucet isn't to make me bytecoins

That was me testing to see if the faucet really works

bytecoin is back ?  I remember seeing this way back

Wow, those are bills with style!

Yeah, I saw those a while ago too
It's not the same currency though, that was meant to be a completely physical currency, although afiler does compare them to bitcoins

[LucasJones]

Just finished a batch of 51 faucet transactions, you will be receiving your free bytecoins soon!
I really need to work on a new payment system, I had to send all of those transactions by hand -.-

EDIT: I've sent to over 207 separate addresses so far, all by hand :/

With 290 Mhash/s, should I solo or pool mine?

[LucasJones]

With 290 Mhash/s, should I solo or pool mine?

Well, it would probably take about 4~5 hours on average to generate a block solo mining if the difficulty stays the same, if you want to stay on the safer side you should probably pool mine. I can't really say what would be better for you, neither is definitely more profitable, a pool generally gives you a much more reliable payout, but finding a block makes you feel like you've struck gold

I would probably recommend mining in a pool, just because it's more reliable, but if you feel like solo mining, or doing both, it can sometimes be more profitable, it's your call

[Mogumodz]

Try solo mining for 24 hours then just Pool mine, I was getting blocks every few seconds when the coin launched  

Now every few hours.

Nearly have 10,000 of these things, I shall put the wallet somewhere safe and forget about it till the coin dies or makes money.

I've tried this and it seems quite nice

[frga13]

Will give BTC-E CODE with 0.057 BTC for 570 BTE

[ThePanCakeKid95]

I'd love to buy some pm me

[legend]

I'm buying BTE FOR LTC, I HAVE TWO LTC. POST OR PM ME YOUR OFFERS. I will not go first unless you have 150+ posts or I deem you "trusted".
Thanks.

[FJBourne]

Want to buy 10,000 BYTECoins. Willing to pay 1 Bitcoin or equivalent in TRC or PPC. pm me

If anyone wants to run their own pool node, here is the source code:
https://github.com/gerco/p2pool

The p2p aspects of this code have been largely disabled in the network definition so you'll have to provide seed servers and/or an irc # for the nodes to find each other. I didn't bother to do either so my pool doesn't participate in a network until someone sets that up

Thanks, I was thinking of creating a mining pool which supports the Bytecoin Faucet

I'm giving it ago...

Created a P2Pool (modified by Gerco) mining server for the faucet

5% fee on pool, half of it goes to the faucet's funds.
