merge mining a coin makes its value less just look at i0coin ixcoin devcoin namecoin and so on if its merge mined people will just mine bitcoin and dump the merge mined coin

[ahmed_bodi]

This is a subject which has been discussed at length in other threads and something I no longer wish to discuss. I'm going to create the client and release it with the agreement of being consistently up to date with the bitcoin base. The chain with 51% of the hash will win as expected. I will request doublc not to join until we have a consensus on the agreed fork. If the majority hash want merged mining to take place then that version will become the main chain. If the majority of people wantbytecoin to exist on the current path. Then everyone is free to do so. That is the fair way to do so

and in the evening open the pool for the bytecoin main net.

In side news only 1k blocks left of high diff,.

Ok, where is the pool, its night in eu

[ahmed_bodi]

yeah ive just got home now. Setting up the final touches

[ahmed_bodi]

pool is online at bte.crypto-expert.com but it needs a slight bit more testing

[Mapuo]

Not for me

[ahmed_bodi]

just made some changes it will be back on soon

[ahmed_bodi]

its back

[cshelswell]

there's something a bit funny with the login in safari and chrome. It doesn't actually direct you to the home page. If you refresh it seems to work though. I've put 3.3GH/s on it for now. I can maybe add some more later.

Nice work on the pool though it looks really good

Thanks!!

[ahmed_bodi]

thanks. its cause the web server is running on a non standard port and the submit button wants to connect to port 80 which causes the problems im working on getting hold of a second web server and using that one just as a backup incase the main gets a DDOS like last time. the hashrate stats are off imo but shouldnt be too hard to fix

[cshelswell]

so how long before the first block do you reckon

Guess it depends how many other folks join the party.

[ahmed_bodi]

yep it does hopefully from the responses ive seen there should be quite a bit joining the pool

edit: we found a block

[cshelswell]

yeah I saw that Awesome. I've put all my 11GH/s on it. It's great to finally have a pool!

[ahmed_bodi]

Definitly were on our third or forth block I think. At this rate well fly through these blocks and bring bytecoin back to profitability. I've had a rethink on the merged mining and changed my mind. Decided to wait for the diff derop see how the network goes and only implement merged mining if neccesary

[SR20DEN]

There is also bte.dsync.net which I am running on.  The pool is just over 300GH right now and climbing.

bte.dsync.net:4444

[cshelswell]

i'm all for leaving it not merge mined. I think the coin's got great potential like it is.

I take it the pool isn't showing correct hash rates at the moment? Mine definitely report much lower than they are.

Cheers

[ahmed_bodi]

yep hashrate isnt correct

[ahmed_bodi]

11 blocks found so far. i will have to warn you guys that the links on dsync are likely to be outdated with the official dev repo. so that is likely to be a reason as to why everyone cannot sync. ill post a link to my repo in a minute or so

[i3lome]

heres the config line.

cgminer.exe -o http://crypto-expert.com:6327 -u bytecoin address -p x

crypto-expert.com is broken
