People using the web wallet please retrieve your funds as the guy maintaining the service is going to close it soon.

I would like to start experimenting with new difficulty retarget algorithms. Do you have any preference? Classic choice is DGW3 but we are free to try anything, even something new. I have some ideas for a custom algo. Might also be good for marketing.

I think it is better to move service somewhere. Otherwise later you can get very angry people who were on vacations, or elsewhere and lost their coins.

Bitcore has good difficulty retarget algo lowering nicehash threat.

Have you looked at BCH? They had pretty wild network hashrate fluctuations too. No idea if it is a good solution but worth a look at least. More info here: https://www.bitcoinabc.org/november

What is the retarget algo of cryptonite and why do you want to change it? I prefer Kimoto Gravity Well, because I like coins with the retarget on every block. I don't like the calculation of diff on every x blocks because someone might use a lot of hash power and leave the diff at a hight level.

Cryptonite diff retarget is already on every block and of course we will only consider such algos for the future.

I downloaded the mining program, but it doesn't do anything. There's no instructions and it just flashes up a command window that disappears just as quick! I also tried messaging the "Contact Us" on the website, but seems it either doesn't work, or I'm just being ignored ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) I own a lot of XCN, I'd like to mine too, but everything feels like pulling teeth at the moment!

Hey, depending on the miner you need different parameters to start it. I usually build a custom .bat to start them. Have a read around which parameters you need.

Please use this thread or slack for support. If you make a bat file with "pause" command at the end, you can see the error message which is printed before the window closes.

To the dev(s): I have tried to fix the OpenSSL problem myself applying patches from Bitcoin and Peercoin (unfortunately there were a lot more files that needed to be changed) that eliminate the need for the "CBigNum" class defined in bignum.h. I managed to compile the client now, but I unfortunately run into a Segmentation Fault after the first block. So I very likely did something wrong. I have only a basic understanding of C++ (or programming in general, I know a little bit of Python but only for basic scripting with a minuscule bit of OOP), so that wasn't totally unexpected ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) However, if you want, I can upload the changed files to Github into an own fork. Anyway, I installed the client on another Linux distro where I still had a 1.0.2 OpenSSL version - and I must say I am positively impressed. The blockchain (proof chain/headers) synced in less than an hour, that's awesome for a three-year-old coin, even if it isn't still used much. Good work!

Yes please, make a fork so I can have a look at the changes and help fixing the remaining issue. Three-year-old: well, now it's almost four :-)

The error is saying it expects a URL.... Is there not normally a batch file supplied with a miner with all the required parameters? There's nothing in the zip file I downloaded....
