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

[nunoclix]

When will there be a normal exchange? This shit does not work "Stocks.Excellent" f//g s//t

Calm down friend, read the news from stocks https://twitter.com/StocksExchangeR/status/950312522640494592

[smoolae]

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

[E5]

Still able to mine but no website

[yakavetta]

So first off
I've noticed https://intense.hashvault.pro using a new laylout/site setup.

Secondly I have a question. With some cpus...erm lying around doing nothing I get 1.8 khs mining monero xmr-stak-win64
since this algo isnt cryptonite lite algo...or some other version.  
With intense friendly cpu mining software i get a bit less. ~1400

What would be the best CPU miner for intel and intense out there?

Im also using GPU so don't say anything about not using cpu....it's 1.8 khs lying around doing nothing

For CPU mining there's xmr-stak and claymore's miner. There are some others, but I think these two are the best. Try both, they don't really take too much time to set up. In my experience they're usually quite close in terms of hashrate, but this might depend on the CPU you're using.

I noticed that their payouts have been on hold since like 15 hours ago. I have some 60 ITNS pending. Right now the website looks weird so I am hoping that they may be doing some kind of update.

I am using xmrig, with donations set to 1% instead of the default 5%. I find this pretty easy to use and am getting 400 hash/s on i7-3770k@4.9 Ghz(4 threads - HT-off) and 455 hash/s on i7-3930k@4.7Ghz(6 threads - ht-off)

Though the website looks weird, my miners are still submitting shares... fingers crossed ;-)

it seems that hashvault just went nanopool style theme. Old pool is available here: https://oldintense.hashvault.pro/

I will reconfigure my miners to the new one ASAP :-)

Thank you very much I already tried the xmr-stak but forgot about claymore :facepalm:  not really new to this.



For the other post as well ...the ones above

Is claymore working faster for you? I was under the impression that xmr-stak and xmrig were the fastest for CPU. But must admit that I haven't tried claymore yet. Should I maybe make the shift

Stupid question... how do you do this?

What is this "worker_id" (MinerIdentifier) they require now (usually I left the password field empty)

instead of -p x in your *.bat file. replace the x with "anynameofminer:youremail@youremailprovider.something" ;-)

EDIT: this way you can tell your miners status from each other. And get notifications on email if a miner stops hashing. plus you can determine payout threshold

Example:

Code:

xmrig  -a cryptonight -o stratum+tcp://pool.intense.hashvault.pro:3333 -u "your-ITNS-address" -p "nameofworker":"youremail" -t 6 --donate-level=1 --cpu-priority 3

Ah... I see. So it's something I just randomly can choose myself. I thought I have to register on the pool website now to get some kind of account. This was a bit confusing (the account registration form itself wasn't really helping either

Thanks for clearing it up!

Glad to be of help. Was as confused myself when I did it the first time a couple of days back. And yes you can pick whatever name you want for your miners. I actually don't even think you need to provide a real email address. As long as it fits the format of an email address and as long as you can remember, it for it is your password in order to view your stats and change your settings.

One small question: To make a backup of my wallet I would normally save the wallet.dat but it seems to be different with this coin?

When I "backup wallet" from the GUI wallet it saves one "filename".wallet file. Is this simply due to a somewhat different design than other coins?

Intense is a CryptoNote coin, similar to Monero, Bytecoin, Electroneum etc. They all work with .wallet files, that's the one you normally back up. I'm not sure why the backup feature makes smaller .wallet files though, interested in this as well.

Oh. Well that makes sense!

I have been mining a bit of SUMOKOIN and Electroneum as well but haven't been able to make actual file backup of wallet. Paper-wallet for ETN and mnemonic seed for SUMO. I didn't know that wallet files for CryptoNight differed in that way. thx for the info :-)

Almost every coin uses a .wallet file.  It really has nothing to do with the algorithm.  ETN is kind of weird in the sense that they didn't really come out publically with a wallet (but there is one on their github that works).  In the case of Sumokoin it sounds like you might be using https://wallet.sumokoin.com/ instead of the wallet installed on your computer.

[wacko]

Not true, most coins use wallet.dat files. It's only CryptoNote coins that use .wallet files. Not that much of a difference, but still enough to confuse some users.

It is kind of confusing I think.

I had an old bitcoin wallet and was stupid enough to only backup the *.wallet file, later to learn that it was useless without wallet.dat. Stupid me 

In the case of SUMOkoin I still cannot find any wallet.dat or "filename".wallet for that matter.. The current GUIwallet does include a passphrase to be able to load. But I loaded it up with my mnemonic seed initially.

Heya guys, been lurking for some time, but finally time to start writing I guess

The project looks quite good and I am willing to put some hashes in it, plus the price of the coin seems to have a great potential to rise quite a bit once in a few other exchanges, hoping for news on this soon

On to the point - been mining the coin for couple of days in official pool and switched today to hashvault but seem to have some stability issues and the interface switch today also bugged me up a bit, can anyone recommend a decent populated EU pool, I have about 4-7KH to put in good use.

[longestday3030]

I for one haven't tried the other Intense pools. I always mined in the dev's pool. http://intensecoin.com/pool/
I like that it has a big portion of the network hash rate, which means it always find blocks and the payouts are consistent. I know many Intense pools are being setup right now so you may also want to check those.

The project of VPN is more and more popular and has a great market.

[wacko]

I'll be waiting for the distribution of the signature campaign, some generous people will sell at any price.

Same. Not much of a HODLer myself, but this is basically a no-brainer, up to 200k ITNS hit the (small) market within a day or two, just gotta figure out where the bottom is and get some of those cheap coins.
