[ANN] [MAGA] Magacoin - Build the Wall! -- NO PREMINE | NO ICO/CROWDFUND

[StealthDad]

Anyone willing to compile minerd on windows and give us a link?

Happy to announce that a compiled version of magaminer for Windows 64-bit is now available at the following link:
https://github.com/magacoin/magaminer/releases

Please note that I do not have immediate access to a Windows machine and will need someone to help test/evaluate the build. Thanks!


MAGA

TY! TESTING NOW!

Seems to be working.

[magatoshi]

pool pls

Building and/or operating a mining pool is not in my immediate goals. If anyone else wants to take on this, they are most welcome.

Seems to be working.

Thanks for testing, I really appreciate it!

when plan listing to exchanger

We are building out the network right now.

Np, np!

Took me a while to figure out, but I finally did.
I have a few computers at home and at my Mom's house.

I port forwarded correctly and all... but for some reason none of the computers at my Mom's house (remote location) were finding blocks.
I fixed this by adding  (--no-longpoll --no-redirect --no-stratum) to the miner batch file... without the ( ) of course.
And then I also did this to my magacoin.conf:

server=1
rpcuser=test
rpcpassword=test
rpcallowip=0.0.0.0/0
rpcworkqueue=64
maxreceivebuffer=300000
maxsendbuffer=60000
rpcthreads=240


Not sure which of these things fixed it, but something did.
Before I did these changes, if I would go to my wallet's 127.0.0.1:5332 it would say that the work queue was full... now it never says that and all the remote location computers produce mined blocks!

And it is working great over my dynamic dns if anyone was wondering about that.

Still waiting for pools.

Why is there a copy coin of Magacoin posted the day after this one?

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2006933

I don't like that.
How can there be two coins with the same name?

Hi all, I'm new to mining and have magaminer running smoothly on a mac using the following magacoin.conf:

rpcuser=u
rpcpassword=p
rpcport=5332
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
listen=1
server=1
daemon=1

How do I change rpcallowip to allow more than one connection on port 5332 so I can add another mac to mine? Thanks and MAGA

rpcallowip=0.0.0.0/0

that will allow all IPs

[magangster]

rpcallowip=0.0.0.0/0

that will allow all IPs

Thanks StealthDad, I figured it out by plugging in the individual subnet ips and adjusting my magacoin.conf accordingly. Now I have a different problem: I'm getting periodic "json_rpc_call failed, retry after 30 seconds" errors. It'll hash fairly well for a few minutes, then give me the error, then hash again, error, and so on.

Any thoughts?

EDIT: fixed!
I had the wrong final digit in the subnet; all is working well now.

Mine was doing that until I added this to the conf:

rpcworkqueue=64
maxreceivebuffer=300000
maxsendbuffer=60000
rpcthreads=240

AND this to the batch file:
--no-longpoll --no-redirect --no-stratum

Let me know if that fixes it.
Of course restart the wallet after saving the conf

That doesn't look good, it seems like they may be trying to scam users out of BTC by impersonating this project. I don't know. I'd recommend everyone to stay clear of that.

Win-64 Release of the miner crashes upon opening for myself.

Are there any logs? Please report them to Github.

rpcallowip=0.0.0.0/0

that will allow all IPs

Please do not use 0.0.0.0/0 as that allows everyone on the global internet (assuming you are NAT/port forwarding) to execute RPC calls against your client which is a very big security risk. Instead, I'd recommend that you hardcode all other IPs individually; if not on your private network, use their public IP, ie.

rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcallowip=8.8.8.8
rpcallowip=192.168.1.0/24

So, whats the road-map for magacoin? Any plans to expand to exchanges?

thx

[gliridian]

hi, is there a tutorial on how to mine magacoins? That would be very helpful since I'm a newbie. thanks!

[gliridian]

Hi everyone, I would really like to mine this one. But I don't know what to do. I'm not a programmer or a developer... I'm just an Art teacher who happens to like cryptos. I'm also new to this... May I ask someone to make a step by step dumb down tutorial on how to mine Magacoin?

Here's the info for my PC:

OS: Windows 8.1
processor: Intel Core i5-4460 CPU @ 3.20GHz
Ram: 16 GB
System type: 64-bit Operating System, x64-based processor

I would really appreciate if someone help me how to mine this... thank you very much!

WTB some pools to mine this

[burebizta]

is scrypt for asic?

1. Download the windows wallet. Run it and let it sync. Shut it down.
2. Make a new configuration file or change the one that is already in the file folder C:/local disk/Users/(your user name/AppData/Roaming/Magacoin. Use the examples in this thread.
3. Download the miner. Now, you can either run it from the windows command line using the code from earlier in this thread or make a batch file, like earlier in this thread, in the same folder as where you unzipped the miner files.

My conf file:

server=1
rpcuser=******
rpcpassword=******
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1

My bat file:

minerd.exe -o http://127.0.0.1:5332 -u ****** -p ****** --coinbase-addr=(your wallet address here)


4. Start the wallet and let it sync again with the new conf file. Shut it down and restart once more.
5. Start the miner. It should show you the hashes per thread now. If you get some error messages, go back and check your batch and configuration files and make sure the information matches in each file.
