Hello miners. I would like to encourage you to mine VoteCoin, to get some free coins.
It is using equihash algo (like ZCASH, Komodo, Hush, etc.)

There is currently network hashrate of only 300Ksol/s

Currently VoteCoin is listed at tradesatoshi.com exchange

Download Windows wallet here:

My miner has very low memory and i don't have time to switch to linux. If a windows release comes available ill be in.

[tharrison159]

If you can provide me with some info as to how to solo mine this coin i'll be happy to start mining it and a windows wallet would be nice also

To involve more miners in the project you need a public pool and windows miner

I don't wish to participate in ICO without any proper Mugshots and Linkedin!
There's no demo just concept of a coin.

You wouldn't have fared very well in the early cryptocurrency days then. This launch is about as old school as it gets, no working (Windows) wallets, no pools, it reminds me of early the Litecoin (scrypt) mining days when it was standard for new coins to launch similar to this.

New to mining and most definitely new to mining on Linux, but a coin at this low of a sat (not even having any technical value at the moment) has really perked my ears.

Is there any material I could read in regards to mining Votecoin? I'm a bit sick of one of my miner's Windows 7 OS and this would be, if anything, an educational experience.

Thanks in advance, y'all.

How to solo mine this with existing GPU miners?

[joshuaj]

First time read post from dev to recruit for miner, lol... Any premined, if yes how many %?

[votecoin.site]

I can see there are already new miners of VoteCoin, thank you very much for participating!

Regarding premine, yes there is official premine of 4.54%, this is already described on the website. This premine is sold to ICO participants for 0.00002 BTC per VOT. Everybody is welcome to participate, if you like.

Regarding mining instructions, officially supported is currently only the Linux CLI version, with CPU mining, I am sorry.

We plan lots of things, including public pool, windows wallet, etc, but that is a subject of funding - if sufficient funding is received through the ICO, everything will be implemented according to the roadmap (you can see milestones at the website).

I am sure there are miners out there already solo-mining with GPU, since one of the current miners has 800sol/s power on his own, so I believe it is somehow possible even without our official support, this guy probably has some custom software for that, which we are not aware of, but this is just my pure speculation.

In order to download and run the Linux client for CPU mining, you can follow these instructions:
https://github.com/Tomas-M/VoteCoin/blob/master/README.md

I hope the ICO campaign will go well and I hope we will be able to collect sufficient funging for our next milestone soon - public pool with 0% fee.

Well waiting for a pool and I might just mine this anyways
I cant seem to find the wallet , How can u mine without a wallet?

[votecoin.site]

For VoteCoin wallet, you have to compile the software on Linux:
Github repo: https://github.com/Tomas-M/VoteCoin
We can provide precompiled binaries, if you prefer.
I'll also look into cross-compiling for Windows, but do not promise anything yet.

I have cards ready to go if you're going to do windows, i don't really like running linux with the driver pains

[PaulusDixit]

I've set it all up, but the deamon is not connecting to mainnet.votecoin.site.

It's waiting for connections...whats wrong?
