[ANN] INTENSE COIN - Blockchain backed decentralized VPN - Hybrid PoW

[vince-zheng]

The project looks very popular，I'll mine it

[Mikanoshi]

Im sorry if it seemed negative, I was actually just asking a question, why would you release if everything is not in place... I wasnt trying to be rude

There is no decent open source block explorer for cryptonote-based coins. For bitcoind clones - no problem, but not for this.
I wanted to try to make one but couldn't even compile node under FreeBSD Cryptonote is a lot less common, so it requires a real development, not just forking some ready-to-use products.
But you have a right to question why they didn't do it before the launch. Develop first, release afterwards.
So we all are playing an early access game now with a lot of bugs and missing features

DEVELOPMENT UPDATE

Valiant has developed a working Block Explorer. Check it at the following page: http://intensecoin.com/explorer/

If you haven't tested the new alpha version Wallet yet then feel free to do so.

Check out the following blog post for more information: https://intensecoin.com/2017/08/31/mandatory-wallet-update-ticker-change/


We have also updated linux x86_64 binaries for GUI wallet + miner and posted to Github releases at the following links...

Miner: https://github.com/valiant1x/intensecoin/releases

Is there any other mining pools besides http://intensecoin.com/pool/ ?

Network hash rate is 1.28 MH/sec, but http://intensecoin.com/pool/ have only 230 KH/sec

May be there is another pool with more hash rate?

Network hash rate includes those that are solo mining.. I don't think there is a pool with more hashing power than the original one so far.

I guess there is something wrong.
Blocktime is arround 15 minutes but the difficulty is still growing.That's probably due to the today's hashrate peak between 02 and 03 GMT (over 5Mh/s), but the algo should adapt and adjust the diff faster.

I am hearing a lot of questions about block difficulty mentioned here and in Slack. I'll try to clarify.

CryptoNote derived coins adjust difficulty based on the time it took to hash the last day's worth of blocks (720 blocks in our case), minus 8.3% of outliers on each end (~17% total). It will take time for the network to re-adjust after someone pointed a lot of hashing power at the pool. The coin is always attempting to target a block time of 120 seconds based upon those last 720 blocks.

This scenario will become increasingly less common and probable as the network grows. It is vulnerable to an influence like this due to the immaturity of the blockchain and the lack of hashing power, especially as most hashing power is concentrated in a single pool. For now, this is our reality.

The difficulty adjustment algorithm works quite well. It will work better once the coin is more established. For now, we will have periods of fluctuation due to the factors described above. Network hash rate as displayed on the pool is calculated as a function of the last X blocks, just like difficulty. It's not necessarily representative of the true hash rate if people only momentarily direct TONS of hashing power at the network for a short period of time (which is what happened yesterday).

To address the questions about 'why no block explorer at launch' - I'm not sure it's really necessary with a young network. The vast majority of transactions are just mined coins, especially before the coin is on an exchange and has more value associated with it. We had our hands full with other matters and wanted to offer the community an opportunity to engage and receive a handsome bounty. Nobody was able to fulfill the bounty so we took care of the task. Regardless, it's done now

Thanks for the update and explanations as per usual valiant,

This coin has a solid foundation to do great things

[Elbart0]

Thanks for the clarification and the block explorer. Good job !

Hey gang, been reading up here. Liking what I see so far  

But lots more to check out yet 

[e6ug]

mined all night http://intensecoin.com/pool/#   shows blocks found still 0 coins received..   what a waste of energy

I take it back, it just took a long time for my coins to show    mining again,  my bad

[e6ug]

now i am getting "DNS address could not be found"  is the pool down?

it takes a while due to the block mature status & payment distribution.

now i am getting "DNS address could not be found"  is the pool down?

looking into it.

Hey gang, been reading up here. Liking what I see so far 

But lots more to check out yet 

Thanks! There is a lot that needs to be done from our side as well. Enjoy exploring the project

[mv1986]

so what exactly is new that this blockchain brings to the table that others don't offer?

[hualei_hb]

 http://intensecoin.com/pool/ is down?

[Dr.Lecter]

Hey guys,
i am wirting to inform you that our pool working again.   and still have miners who do not get their coin by error "coin unconfirmed".   we are deeply sorry, because now we will fix it..  
http://104.197.58.119/#
Please check your balance in our pool, if you still have coin unconfirmed. feel free contact to me (dr.lecter) or erdanis about it. we will send manually.  
Finally, i would like to say that: happy mining and good luck for this project!!!  
thank you so much!

Very good question ?!
let them give the address of this pool? or pools !?

Is it possible to set up a solo ?!
I read on the branch that this is not possible!
write how to do it,
if this is true!

[alexius89-2]

http://intensecoin.com/pool/ is down?

It is working again at http://intensecoin.com/pool/


@Dr. Lecter, please ensure to make the outstanding payments first before advertising again. Thanks

[hualei_hb]

our pool can see Unconfirmed Balance!

http://itns.globalpool.cc 0 % fee to the 10. September
Minimum payment threshold: 10itns

Nvidia card guide：
1、download wallet( https://github.com/valiant1x/intensecoinwallet/releases/ ),get you wallet address.
2、download ccminer(https://github.com/tpruvot/ccminer/releases or http://111.231.72.116:8091/int_ccminer-x64-2.2.rar)
3、create .bat file,Example:
ccminer-x64.exe -a cryptonight -o stratum+tcp://111.231.72.116:2235 -u YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS -p x
4、run .bat
Amd card miner:
Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v10.0
https://mega.nz/#F!e4JVEAIJ!l1iF4z10fMyJzY5-LnyC2A
    edit your config.txt
      -o stratum+tcp://111.231.72.116:2235
      -u YourAddress
      -p x
      -allpools 1
    run NsGpuCNMiner.exe

our pool is working!

Could this be the reason the pool was up and down yesterday? very poor mining yesterday my payments didn't start until 7.44pm and only 8 payments have been made compared to all the other days were I get between 15-20 payments total starting round 12pm nothing changed in regards to my mining time etc
