[ANN] MemoryCoin

[Entz]

This should work also:

git clone -b mcinit https://github.com/memorycoin/memorycoin.git

Good to know!

Doing a getinfo or gegenerate takes 1-3 seconds to display the results. Event though it's pretty much idle on the cpu and not mining (gen=0, getgenerate returns false). I've got 106 blocks and timeoffset 0.
I don't recall seeing lag like this with any other coin. Wonder what that's about.

[Entz]

When I go to add the code to line 170, do I paste it above "obj/build.h: FORCE"?

yes. Make sure it is seperate (i.e. line below -include obj-test/*.P) and above obj/build.h
Also make the gcc line is tabbed in not spaces

[shazbits]

Since gethashespersec returns 0, is there a way to verify it's mining properly? (other than watch 'memorycoind listtransactions')
What's a typical blocks/hour expected with an 8core for the current diff of 0.00001525?

the current official windows wallet is hardcoded to 1 core, you can tell its mining from the CPU use
i got 1 block in about 3 hours at this diff on my i5 (2 if you include orphans)

Okay the first coin blocks are maturing - I've got some coins to play around with.

Send me a priv message with your MemoryCoin address (it should be an address that has already mined a block) if you'd like some coins to try out the voting.

Is it still Beta Test Build?  Is all coins generated will be '0' once it release?  Any useful information welcome on this matter.

It's an experiment - there's a lot of variables and I don't know how the experiment will turn out. If the coin needs to be restarted or tweaked for whatever reason, I'll take reasonable steps to maintain balances where possible. Keep any wallets you create, they may be valid in the next blockchain if this one doesn't work out.

Here is mine

[turtle83]

Github source here - currently in a tree mcinit
https://github.com/memorycoin/memorycoin/tree/mcinit

Building the deamon gives me bitcoind .
is https://github.com/memorycoin/memorycoin/commits/0.8.3.july16 the main branch? That looks like bitcoin clone with nothing else in it.

getaccountaddress ""  <-- gives me address starting with 1

//Nevermind, it seems mcinit is the master not the default one...  Cant seem to connect to any of the addnodes... anyone got fresh ips?

[FreeTrade]

Second, When we create a Private Key \ MVTE address, what do we do with it?  I tried to import the private key, but get that it is invalid.

Okay, thanks again for the bug report - I've got a new exe that fixes the problem - remember to backup your wallet before using the new version.

https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B-5Ax5kejTpMTHZnUF80cGlFU1k/edit?usp=sharing


For those of you working with source, fix will be on github soon, in the meantime chainparams.cpp :line 235 should be change to

base58Prefixes[SECRET_KEY] = 178; //50+128

[stas]

no found blocks for more then 20 minutes.. is it OK?

[stas]

after I upgraded the exe file

[stas]

is it only me or the network is stack on the 151 block for about 30 minutes ?

[FreeTrade]

is it only me or the network is stack on the 151 block for about 30 minutes ?

Yes it was taking a while - but just saw 2 blocks in a row. Up to 153 now.

[stas]

why would it get more then 6 minutes to generate a block while someone is mining?

[barwizi]

this is interfering with my bitcoin client, i use linux, a compilation of your coin give me bitcoin-qt, further it then messes with my block data and the addy shown in your client is my btc addy. this coin is dead unless that is the intended effect.

makefile.unix needs tweaking too build memorycoind, so here's a patch off my working copy.

this is interfering with my bitcoin client, i use linux, a compilation of your coin give me bitcoin-qt, further it then messes with my block data and the addy shown in your client is my btc addy. this coin is dead unless that is the intended effect.

strange, when I qmake/make it on mine here it builds memorycoin-qt and works off .memorycoin not .bitcoin
