Nice. Please remember to support the MemoryCoin Foundation by sending a small (voting) donation to

I've added information to the 1st page about how to vote for grant awards, and how to create your own address to receive grants.

Broken, missing scrypt files.

no blocksource... add nodes!

is this designed to be a low resource coin? i see you cant set more than 1 core to hash
theres really only 1 block every 6mins? what is it doing the rest of the time?

"This is a pre-release test build - use at your own risk - do not use for mining or merchant"

this isnt the final build for mining?

The scrypt files should be present, but the makefile for bitcoind.exe probably needs the references added. I've only compiled the QT client.

I'll look at this tomorrow.

The code is not thread safe, so it only uses one core at the moment. That would be a good optimization to make to the source, but I'm not in a particular hurry to do it, as it evens the field a little.

"This is a pre-release test build - use at your own risk - do not use for mining or merchant"

It's hashing the whole time - just on one core.

There's a disclaimer on it - this is very experimental. I don't know where it's going to go yet.

Thanks for taking part in the launch today. Thanks too for reporting the problems you had with connecting - your feedback was very helpful in identifying and resolving the problem. The problem was that I hadn't opened the port on my router or used uPnP. It was a schoolboy error and my bad. Sorry.

The problem caused an instamine of about 40 blocks which was unfair. I'd like to offer you each a block reward (24 MEGs) in compensation for the problematic start and as a thank you. Please priv message me your Memorycoin address within the next 48hrs to accept.

*Note: It'll be a few hours before I can send, the blocks are taking 6 hours to mature.

is this designed to be a low resource coin? i see you cant set more than 1 core to hash

if want more core to use
main.cpp
change line 4959

Code:

for (int i = 0; i < 1; i++)

to

Code:

for (int i = 0; i < nThreads; i++)

Yes - this will work, but it will crash occassionally. Usually when it reaches a grant allocation block. Wait for the grant allocation block to pass before restarting.

Is it normal that hashpersec is 0?

{
"blocks" : 73,
"currentblocksize" : 1000,
"currentblocktx" : 0,
"difficulty" : 0.00001070,
"errors" : "This is a pre-release test build - use at your own risk - do not use for mining or merchant applications",
"generate" : true,
"genproclimit" : -1,
"hashespersec" : 0,
"pooledtx" : 0,
"testnet" : false
}

The program seems to be using processor speed, i.e. about 15% - one thread out 8 on my i7.

found a block when starting the client but by the time it synced it was orphaned .

client shouldn't start mining when i have it set not to by default

ah so its one for the compilers instead of the masses

[FreeTrade]

Yes - not implemented. Anyway, you'd be shocked how low your hashpersec is. Have a look at the memory usage in your task manager, it should look like a little wave as memory is allocated and deallocated (another optimization available right there) . . time between crests is time per hash.

[Eli0t]

1 hash a second? damn no wonder the diff is so low

Seems the pre-announcement and the launch of the beta both occured overnight for me in Aus
