Gold Coin

Looks like I'm going to have to wait for a decent pool to be created.

Even with my 7 Mhash/s I'm getting no where.

I have only like 3MH dedicated to this and I am getting a few blocks  every so often... you get any blocks yet?

Once, e.g. cgminer is well configured with good options (like. --queue| 0), and using the p2pool, that work. I've tested the pool a moment before, letting it be available on line and I get the expected block rate.

Just saw the difficulty increased a bit.  Still sub < 1 though.  Good thing at least is that the reward looks like it stays pretty high for a while.  Still getting a block here and there.

[Giskard]

The hash rate has reached 138 Mhs.

The hash rate has reached 138 Mhs.

Will wait for a PPLNS pool then. Night all and thanks again for the donation.

I've added a new p2pool.

Here are the parameters:

cgminer --scrypt -o next.afraid.org:8117 -u yourGLDaddress -p .

statistics available here: http://next.afraid.org:8117

2% fee.

----
This one is up, tested, and fully reliable.

Here's how to optimize for the fast block times we're having:

cgminer --scrypt -o next.afraid.org:8117 -u yourGLDaddress -p . --queue 0 --scan-time 1  <whatever gpu-tuning parameters you may have>

If you have already solomined you can add your solomining parameters as fallback:

cgminer --scrypt -o next.afraid.org:8117 -u yourGLDaddress -p . <solo mining host/user/pass parameters> --queue 0 --scan-time 1  <whatever gpu-tuning parameters you may have>

If you want something else to mine as fallback:

cgminer --fallback-only --scrypt -o next.afraid.org:8117 -u yourGLDaddress -p . <host/user/pass for fallback> --queue 0 --scan-time 1  <whatever gpu-tuning parameters you may have>

The --fallback-only is necessary if it's another coin than gldcoin, otherwise cgminer might assume it's different credentials for the same blockchain and tries to do some optimizations based on that

I'm running the linux-qt, and I noticed that my default receive address starts with an E:

ECPGG1zAcZB6GH799ne8aU9yZReaTCLPxT

but when I generated a new receiving address it started with a D:

DzgQyN6n5R4VGC6oJxSfiumhJNsPZNYmqX

Is this expected behavior?

[Magic8Ball]

Any tips into my can please?

It is normal.

Sent 100 to first and 111 to second so you can see whether both are legit.

[Oldie]

I put one of my meager 250k machines at this, so not expecting much.  I haven't been a big fan of scrypt mining, tried Litecoin but never really got the hang of it.

Humming along though, and by the looks of it there was no pre-mine that doomed other alts.  This may work out.

I should change my profile to "AndNMe":

I really like the way how all versions of p2pool seem to have trouble calculating the fees that go to operator correctly:

Expected after mining for 24 hours: 740 GLD per block.

So the miners have to pay 240 GLD according to their hash rates for each block they find? :-)

What is the diff retarget rate? How many blocks?

[Rannasha]

What is the diff retarget rate? How many blocks?

The value wasn't published afaik. I jumped in at around block 2000. Since then the difficulty has gone up 4 times (factor 4 each time, so 4^4 = 256) and we're now at block 10300. So I'd guess around 2000 blocks per retarget give or take a few hundred.

Check the source to be sure.

This is a buggy displayed value, not the real payout, the p2pool code is not fixed yet.

Doesn't say what the retarget-rate is.

Also, almost 100 MHash/s on the network, pretty cool.
