Mine new coin: VoteCoin - equihash, very low difficulty now

[Moondoggie]

Do we know if there has been any applications to exchanges / which ones if so?

So far we've send applications to these exchanges:

Poloniex - applied for enhanced account verification, which is needed to submit new coin for consideration. Still no reply from support
Bittrex - applied for enhanced account verification, which is needed to submit new coin for consideration. Still no reply from support
Coinexchange.io - there is 1 BTC listing fee and 7 days waiting time -> acceptable fee, but very low volume on this exchange
cryptopia.co.nz - listing fee as of now is 5000000 DOT (approx. 5 BTC) -> too expensive
hitbtc.com - 6 months listing - fee 6 BTC /per market -> too expensive
yobit.com - 0.1 BTC listing fee and a few days waiting time -> good terms, but very low volume on this exchange

Our top priority is to get listed on Poloniex or Bittrex. If we are not able to get listed on these exchanges in reasonable time, we will consider listing VOT on some smaller exchanges. So if you guys have any favourite exchanges, send us your tips and we will get in touch with them.

My fav - BitBay.net

That's impressive!
Poliniex and bittrex of course are the preferred option, but good to see yobit on there as a backup as you can still do a reasonable volume for a starter.
Agreed that the others are too expensive for what they offer.

provide us the windows wallet and miners and definitely we will be in..

John1010, we've just released Official VoteCoin wallet for Windows (850MB):

https://github.com/Tomas-M/VoteCoin/releases/download/v1.0.11-win32/VoteCoin.standalone.Win32.zip

Why is the wallet 853MB?

Cause there is included the proving key in the download. I think votecoin is working on a nice wallet which is illustraded on the website.

is it normal that hashes are so rarely on my rig 8x1060? (On ZCash practically all my log about accepter shares)

Yeah that's normal. Ideally we'll get a way to set the difficulty in the pool. As of now I don't think that's an option.

Network hash 392.58k, feels like its being doubled every few days.

Is the individual worker page functional on the votecoin mining pool? Entering the address shows no sols, shares, etc even after mining a few hours and submitting hundreds of shares.

For the official pool (pool.votecoin.site), everything is working as it should. Make sure you are checking your stats on correct pool's website. Make sure your address is a T address generated using votecoin-cli getnewaddress.

Hi guys,

Quick question, at the beginning, votecoin provide a temporary pool, waiting to have their own,

http://votecoin.homepool.xyz/

As many of us, I start on it but when votecoin introduce the http://pool.votecoin.site/ we all switch on it,
So far, I'm quite sad 'cause I have several coin blocked as immature on the 1st pool :

Just a note, that pool was not managed by votecoin team.
The owner of that pool either has troubles sending the payments, or he decided to keep the coins.
@PaulusDixit: if you need help fixing the payouts, feel free to contact us, we should be able to help you so users can get their payments.

[PaulusDixit]

There are some issues, due to migration of the coinserver.

After rescanning unshielding still didn't work. So balances are kinda locked.

I'd like to transfer all the funds, that are pending to be paid. But some balances keep being immature for some reason. (And I really don't want to transfer everything manually, as you might imagine.)

Could someone confirm if the pool still works if an amount is just unshielded without the pool administering it?

Totally !
My request was quite clusmy and it wasn't my attention to offend you
I totally know the Beta version of this pool when it came up.
It was just an 'innocent/newbie' question

Thanks both for your feedback !

If votecoin will be listed in any exchange, you can apply to coinmarketcap.
One more step forward.

Why not list Votecoin at kraken.com exchange?
Is listing price too high?

What is the synchronization error in my wallet?

Hey, guys? what happening with pool? i turned on some workers.. about 320ksol, and cant see my statistic :-)

[Cryptopriest]

I think the official pool still works, but statistic site have some trouble or just take ages to load.

----- Noob Alert -----

Preface: I'm new to mining, have never used anything other than NiceHash which is just meh

Question: I have a CPU which is just lying around with free electricity so I thought I'll give VoteCoin a try - the idea looks interesting I've downloaded the wallet, unzipped it, generated wallet address and so on. Also kept running votecoind in the background.

Now my question is Can I even mine with a CPU? How do I actually start mining? Do I need to download any other miner software and point it to some pool?

Thanks in advance.

I will try this on Windows 7 x64. When will you release GUI wallet for x64?

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 100Ksol/s
Currently VoteCoin is not listed at any exchange yet. So it is unclear what the price will be.
But we're running ICO and there are already some users who buy VOT for 0.00002 BTC.
