[ANN] CPUCoin - CPU mined currency (whirlpool based)

[eule]

Sifcoin: chain in sha-3 candidate-finalis-win function Blake=>BMW=>Groestl=>JH=>Keccak=>Skein
Quarkcoin: 9 rounds of hashing from 6 hashing functions (blake, bmw, groestl, jh, keccak, skein)
CPU-Coin: whirlpool based https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whirlpool_%28cryptography%29 (at least that's what the OP claims, wiki says nothing of the above hash functions)

Maybe someone can clear up if Quarkcoin is a direct clone of Sifcoin or had some changes in the algorithm, if CPU-Coin's algo is Whirlpool and if they are all the same or not...

If someone could post some nodes, that would be great too as I only have 1 connection and no blocks.

cpu miner from quarkcoin is compatible with this coin?

in source code i dont see any whirpool algo code (all source code is the same like in quarkcoin) may be i have problem with my eyesight?))

If you look at hashblock.h and main.h in CPUcoin's source you'll find it uses the same Hash9 function used in Quark. No sign of Whirlpool.

[eule]

That's quite the fail then.  
edit: If the hashrate of this coin grew close to 51% of Quarkcoin, could the blockchain take over?

[arlekyn13]

Noob here, but how do you mine with the qt in win? I created the .conf file and placed it appdata\cpucoin folder and finally, the qt client connected. My cpu is now staying at 100% but I see no results Am I doing something wrong?

[rumbitla]

Am I doing something wrong?

No, you are doing it totally correct.

You have to be patient, you will find some blocks soon.

No, Quarkcoin has been checkpointed.

[sumantso]

I am using the two nodes mentioned in OP and still getting 'No block source available'.

I find lots of blocks due to not getting any blocks downloaded from the two nodes OP posted...
Could have been nice if OP had not lied about the origin and algo of the coin but meh, back to QRK.  

No, Quarkcoin has been checkpointed.

Ofcourse, I'm such a noob. 

[rumbitla]

I am using the two nodes mentioned in OP and still getting 'No block source available'.

I figured here is a better blocksource:

addnode=92.73.213.186
addnode=192.241.186.105

[arlekyn13]

Does it matter what we use at rpcuser and rpcpassword?

Thanks. Working now.

no, can be anything.

ok, to sum it up:

-fucking addnodes don't connect although it's been released 2 days before being posted on this forum
-regional premine
-pretends to use a new algorithm while it's a copy of a copy

no thx kk

No, really ?

How to compile CPUcoin (CPC):

On Linux (I think you know):

1.Download CPUcoin and unpack it.
2. cd ./CPUcoin/src
3. make -f makefile.unix
4. ./.CPUcoind

How to mine CPU coins (CPC):

It's simple, it's all included =)

Edit ~/.CPUcoin/CPUcoin.conf (on linux) or %APPDATA%/CPUcoin/CPUcoin.conf:


rpcuser=someusername
rpcpassword=somepassword
rpcport=40667
daemon=1
gen=1
genproclimit=-1
server=1
maxconnections=80
addnode=92.73.213.186
addnode=192.241.186.105
listen=1


Also:

Nodes 92.73.213.186 and 192.241.186.105 are servers and they works 24x7. Connection port is 40666. Markets are comming soon, may be cryptsy, may be we will up our own: CPC/BTC CPC/LTC CPC/LTC.
