I've scanned the i7 version of ypool's miner, as well as the generic version, and both come up virus positive.  

Only avast is triggered for the i7 version, but many of the scanners go off for the generic version of the miner (looks like many bitcoin related hits).

http://virusscan.jotti.org/en

Is there an optimized version of qt that I might run solo, other than the original (slow) version?  Or am I worrying about nothing and just getting false positives?

Thanks for any help...



Any coin that can be mined traditionally on CPU (ie. SHA based coins including bitcoin) but now days in particular XPM and PTS will be flagged by AV companies (for whatever various reasons we here shall tend to disagree with). The short of the matter is that some clueless victims get miner clients installed on their PCs without their knowledge.

You should upload the official bitcoin or primecoin client to www.virustotal.com as an example, but more importantly read about how to identify and when to expect false positives. Users can also vote on virustotal to indicate whether they think the file is OK or not (such a system is open to malicious abuse though, so always be skeptical).

Is it worth it to solo mine? The price is .02. Should've kept mining when it was released  Undecided

I've fired up the ypool miner once again based on this Smiley

Lots of people have been having issues building from here:
https://github.com/thbaumbach/ptsminer.git

I gave it a crack and have things building within this repository:
https://github.com/ppearcy/ptsminer

I made updates that are likely Mac OS X specific. I will request they get merged into the mainline, but for now, here you go and enjoy!

Feel free to throw me a bone if this was helpful.

Instead old node 168.63.12.227 please use cryptoseed.cloudapp.net
cryptoseed.cloudapp.net it's an DNS name for old 168.63.12.227 node.

I'm running ProtoShares-Qt-0.2.0 on mac OSX. If I chose to mine directly from the app, am I going to mine solo ?

I'm also interested in TheP1000 solution, but I'm not to sure what I have to do to get it working.

The whole point of protoshares is that at least one other DAC is going to be released, and when it is you get parts of that in accordance with how many protoshares you hold.

So the more profitable the new ones being released, the more valuable protoshares are since if you have protoshares you will get some of each of the new ones.

So no matter how profitable they turn out to be, presumably protoshares are even more profitable.

Been mining crypto since early 2011. Some advice: Do not ever rely on a future event occurring or a future development actually proceeding. Consider if it's really wise to mine and hold with the unproven expectation of a potential future event. If it doesn't happen, what will you be left with? If the project tanks, and PTS follows, what are you left with? I know this may be hard to hear, and I know this is BCT forums: inhabited by some of the most positive-thinking and endearing true believers of any technology of recent times, but you should always have a backup plan / eggs in multiple baskets to mitigate your risk. Just my BTC0.02

It's always wise to take your precautions, no matter what. That being said, it isn't wise to be skeptical of every endeavor just because there were scums in the past. I agree that the whole ideas of DACs is pretty ambitious but I see no reason for every single one of them to fail. There's nothing wrong in having a realistic development cycle for these ideas; after all, they are not like the copy-paste altcoins and genuinely need a lot of development and testing.

Also, just FYI, PTS holders got a share of MemoryCoin 2.0 at 10% (1 MMC for 10 PTS held) although that isn't a DAC. The expected schedule for Bitshares is sometime next year. That is probably the most awaited project for PTS holders.

Well admittedly the cost/benefits is different for you lot now than it was for me the first day when the thing was launched.

Once it got difficult I stopped mining it. So for me the cost of the protoshares I have was negligible, some of those fancy coffee-shops probably have foreign-sounding coffee-like drinks that cost more than one day of electricity usage.

So I guess I have been using an opposite tactic: instead of cashing in fast because it cost a lot of money to mine it that I might not make back, I mined it fast so it would hardly cost anything so I can afford to hold it long.
