The pool is working? Im confused, can you post the link?

Pool is working great

cgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://fpool1.zapto.org:19327 -u YourFCAddress -p x -s 1 --expiry 1 --queue 0 --expiry 1 -I 13

Stats you can check out here http://fpool1.zapto.org:19327/static/

Hopefully siteowner will share his p2pool mod with the rest of us

Confirmed... pool is working just fine!

how often do we get paid on this ?

When block is solved, it should be on every 10-20 min i think

Hi

I try to mine at http://fpool1.zapto.org:19327/static/
Yesterday it worked well, but today I get this error and my adress (6vE5FMTFffsjwD39EudWsNtMZN2aWTFCpW) doesn't get in the pool list:

Stratum from pool 0 requested work restart

Is there a solution for this problem?
I use gui scrypt miner.

[bogidu]

Anybody have an idea if/when one of the exchanges will pick this up?

Maybe in a week or two? Mincoin came out 2 weeks ago but it still doesn't have an exchange. Then again FC seems to be a lot more popular so hopefully sooner than later.

Cool, thanks.

I'm almost always pro alt coins, but mincoin was a disaster.  Terrible launch idea.  I see no adoption future for it at all.  The only people that have any interest in it now, are those that mined it the first day.

Feathercoin's launch was better, although I still would prefer an "announcement" period before the official launch.

I'd like to solo-mine FeatherCoins, but my hashrate is very low. So I thought, if it's possible, I'd try to solo-pool mine it - I mean to create my own pool of clients to add their hashrates. Is there a simple way to do it? If so, how? Can I use pooler's CPU miner?

Seriously guys, how can I create my own mini-pool? Not sure if worth to bother after the difficulty jump, though...

I'm not entirely sure what you are asking, but you can run the FC client on one machine, and then point all of your CPU/GPUs to that local computer, connecting with cgminer or something to 192.168.*.* (whatever your IP is), and mine that way. Is that what you mean? You'd be solo-"pool" mining yourself?

Exactly. What I tried, that I started feathercoin-qt like this:

./feathercoin-qt -listen -rpcuser=faszom -rpcpassword=faszom -rpcallowip=127.0.0.1

I'm really not sure if I really need all these parameters, I just kept trying and added more parameters as I was trying without success.

Then I started CPUminer like this:

minerd --userpass faszom:faszom --url http://127.0.0.1:9336

Then I get this output from minerd:

Code:

[2013-04-18 20:59:22] 2 miner threads started, using 'scrypt' algorithm.
[2013-04-18 20:59:22] Binding thread 1 to cpu 1

[2013-04-18 21:00:52] json_rpc_call failed, retry after 30 seconds

Simultenously, this appears in the debug.log of feathercoin-qt:

Code:

accepted connection 127.0.0.1:56132


PROCESSMESSAGE MESSAGESTART NOT FOUND

First I was trying to connect different machines, but when it didn't work, I thought to experiment on localhost first to shoot out possible network or IP blacklisting problems.

It must be something obvious... It looks like if they weren't talking the same protocol - but then how do I point a miner to my client?

You get paid after the block gets 120 confirmations. And with the difficulty increase that just happened, blocks will be coming a bit slower as some people drop back to litecoin/other alt coins.

[Limie]

Is there any way to do mine.altpool with poolers miner?

[237]

I think this will (and should) hit an exchange like vircurex sooner or later, since it is the first "scrypt alt"
with proper start (no premining, secret start for a small group and so on).

I will definatly keep an eye on this one and hope we can start trading it soon (since i am not mining it)

So, what price in BTC, would you place on Feathercoins?  how should we refer to them FC or FTC?

They Are Called Fc, FtC Is Another Coin  :-)

Ild Say 1000 Fc For 0.8 To 1 Btc

[Cheshyr]

The diff is up to 230k.  For a script coin, this is difficult.  It's right up with litecoin now.

It's so far away in terms of difficulty from litecoin at this time.

Isn't Litecoin only at 337k?  Doesn't seem that far away given the rate FC reached 230k.

Is this drastic difficulty increase in response to a drastic increase in miners?  Or is the difficulty scaling more nuanced?

FC is not at 230k and LTC not at 337k
LTC is at 364.36 (not k)
FC is at 3.5

Derp.  I completely misread dustcoin; my apologies.

Re: FC difficulty...  am I misreading cgminer then? 

• The Feather wallet says difficulty 3.5
• The connection line in cgminer says "Connected to mine.altpool.com diff 16" which I assumed is the difficulty of work assigned.
• The next line in cgminer says Diff:230k, which I assumed was the network difficulty, but now it sounds like that the specific difficulty of this block?

Someone explained it in an earlier post how cgminer is based on bitcoin difficulty or something. Anyways, just pultiply the wallet difficulyt by 65k and you'll roughly get the cgminer diff.
