Are there any pool details yet?  I've not gone through every post in this thread yet but wondered if I missed something.

I'm sure everyone will LOVE this coin.

someone mentioned they'll open a pool once the coin is live

Its better to be prepared for an opportunity and not have one than to have an opportunity and not be prepared

What is going on with all the people pushing cloud cpu mining? It is not profitable at all.

Taken right from your guide:

Costs: 5 x 8 CPUs = 40 CPUs (aprox 250 khash/s) = $20 per day

$20 a day for 250kh/s. There is NO coin that you can mine at this rate that would make you more than $20 a day. If there was, people would be pointing their large mining rigs at it.

Do the math guys, this isn't worth it.

This only works for when coins are first released, I think that's what he's getting at. In the first 24 hours its possible to get so many coins that you can recoup the losses for running it for one day.

Yeah! DO THE MATH! Using 250khash/s in day one of dogecoin I mined six zeros qty. Paid $20 sold 1 000 000 dogs for 1 BTC on doges.org - Yeah do the math it's not worth it!

Even on the first day, I don't think you could compete. But you would be gambling that the coin would be successful anyways.

If you truly think you can make profit with 250kh/s at $20 then why not just buy a rig that can get you 3-6 times (or more) the kh/s?

Well with just hours left to launch the source cannot be built.. this is moving to become flopcoin..

I think I figured it out. I had to install automake.

Thanks!

So you want to compile wallet by yourself and start mining before release? It will be unfair.
Hope that developer will announce qt-wallet just in 23:00 and only after that will update the whole code on github.
