[ANN][ZET] Zetacoin - SHA256 - Upgrade to 0.13.2 (Segwit)

[MethMatician]

Funny to see ZetaCoin being developed again. SkeinCoin is forked from ZetaCoin and development has been restarted too (v12.1.1 was released a week ago) Link to their thread

Is there a whitepaper or road map available for ZetaCoin?

Is there a way to opt out of Tor?

Code:

listenonion=0

should do it

Hello, do we have a bootstrap?

[vihang200200]

I'm holding 75%. I think this coin will go further, and the dev isn't shady. A refreshing change

[xuxunini]

Cool so... someone with an eruptor could mine about 4700 ZET between now and the next difficulty increase (21 days?)
and then a further 3122 ZET in the next 28 days after that, and then 1561 ZET in the 28 days after that?

Hi!  I'm wondering what is the best CPU miner to use for mining Zetacoin?  I'm on a Windows 7 machine with 2 threads, would love to get started mining!

cpu mining will not make sense for zetacoin... it is asiq mining

Hi everybody. Wellcome to our mining pool.
http://gigablock.mine.nu has a lot of coins including Zetacoin sha256d.
fee 1%
Good luck.

You want to make code changes to a mostly dead coin because you have newer libraries* in your beta OS flavor?   Really?  


*(read as: you don't actually have "all dependencies installed" since you have a different version of boost than the actual dependency)

[dragonus]

nope, I've ver 1.62
and my mistake, ubuntu is 18.04 (not 18.10)
maybe for you coin is dead... not for me

[ComputerGenie]

nope, I've ver 1.62...

As I said:

...you have a different version of boost than the actual dependency

https://github.com/zetacoin/zetacoin/blob/master/depends/packages/boost.mk#L1-L2

[dragonus]

previous version worked (and compiled) with boost 1.62,
you suggest newer zetacoind requires even older version?

I'm not sure why you can't grasp the concept that code which was mostly written in 2015 needs 2015 libraries.
You seem to be lacking in understanding of what Zetacoin is, how libraries work, and/or what was released when.

The "newer" Zetacoin is updated to the Bitcoin Core version 0.12.1.

• Boost version 1.59.0 was released August 13th, 2015.
• Bitcoin Core version 0.12.1 was released April 15th, 2016.
• Boost version 1.62.0 was released September 28th, 2016.

While you might have gotten lucky with the older base working, the fact remains that much was changed from the Boost 1.59.0 to the Boost 1.62.0 library 13 months later (and also Boost 1.62.0 was 5 months after the Bitcoin Core 0.12.1 code release).

What you're doing is akin to trying to use a 2009 Ferrari engine in a 1987 Pinto.

I am trying to setup a pool, any blockchain snapshot I can download? The normal syncing is taking too much time

[alforro]

anyone knows where can I find a snapshot of the blockchain? I am trying to setup a mining pool for this coin and that would help me to get it up and running asap.

I wish I had bought and sold.  I've seen it happen quiteten, looks like there is a ZET/BTC whale with a bot pointed at all the major exchanges.
