[CHAN] ChanCoin - Meme-Powered Crypto for Imageboards

[cusslerfan]

-=ANNOUNCEMENT=-

So in a few hours (at Midnight on February 14th, UTC) Chancoin will switch to its new PoW algorithm, Cloverhash!

At present we have a cpuminer fork with cloverhash (aka nightcap) implemented available at https://github.com/chancoin-core/cpuminer-multi - branch 'linux'

At present, compiling for windows is left as an exercise to the reader - a windows binary is forthcoming, as is a stratum implementation and a GPU miner. Oh, and a whitepaper.

I know, I know, blah blah blah - the author of the algo, Name - yes his name is Name - is very busy right now and our policy is that our devs well-being comes first, so deal with it.

Anyhow, some instructions for how to solo mine chancoin with cloverhash follow:


How to mine Chancoin with cpuminer

Download cpuminer here: https://github.com/chancoin-core/cpuminer-multi (go to releases for prebuilt binary or build branch 'linux')
Download latest Chancoin wallet here:  https://github.com/chancoin-core/chancoin (again, go to releases)
Create an empty configuration file at ~/.chancoin/chancoin.conf
Edit the configuration file, here’s the template, fill accordingly:

rpcuser=yourusername
rpcpassword=yourpassword
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
server=1
addnode=fnord
addnode=blah
addnode=whatever
addnode=twinklehouse

Add as many nodes as you can, change user and password, save. See thread for nodes.

From bash, enter "./cpuminer -a cloverhash -o http://127.0.0.1:RPCPORT -O RPCUSER:RPCPASSWORD"

OK - lets see how this goes. If anyone has questions pop them in here or in our _actual_ discord at https://discord.me/chancoin

We'll do our best to address any issues as they arise.

Any idea of when the forthcoming Windows build will be released?

Fantastic Idea!!!! I made this post a while back, I'm thinking of making more informational posts later on after I catch up my work.

So is everyone stuck on block 25,237 now?   Is the new hashing algo not working correctly?

Cloverhash is Live!

Thanks to the hard work of several community contributors, we have finally got Cloverhash live on mainnet! Block times are now pretty damn fast. Our contributor MangoFusion is working on a GPU implementation, but for now use the instructions in the post above (thank u for posting that, btw) to get started mining, or pop on down to the chancoin discord - linked to in the first post of this thread - for help.

Now that the massive 0.15 update is FINALLY done and rolled out, we will be taking a few days to catch our breath before announcing next steps and priorities, but here's a sneak peak: new website design, updated roadmap, paying down technical debt on our codebase and finally getting down to work on some of the end-user applications we've envisioned for the coin, such as our own crypto-enabled image board.

Thanks for everyone's continued support,
Gossamer

[bestofbritish96]

p.s. as well as the core block-chain work, separate work on Android and IOS mobile wallets were started this week by a new member of the dev-team 'Jabo'.

[pwrLedge]

What is the next exchange Chancoin could be listed on? 

[AlgaeaFrampton]

HOPEFULLY JABO IS TENDING TO THE AESTHETIC QUALITY OF THE MOBILE WALLETS AS WELL?  BEFORE WE HASTE INTO MOBILE WALLETS HERE WE SHOULD AT LEAST THINK OF A DESIGN NO?  THE BACK END IS FINE, I JUST THINK WE NEED A LITTLE COSMETIC DETAIL ON THE WALLET TO MAKE IT STAND OUT FROM THE REST.  JUST A THOUGHT.

Keith Null is on standby, once the core dev work is completed the correct artwork will be added. There will then be a single beta release where people can comment and give the thumbs up (or not!).
