[ANN] Catcoin - Scrypt meow!

[Kungfucheez]

Agreed, I'm just going to stick with the authors pool since he was nice enough to add it and not premine. But he should release a wallet soon if he actually wants people to mine it. It's getting close to the deadline he set and haven't heard anything from him

I believe he has said that the wallet itself won't be available until the official 23:00 UTC launch. I think people need to calm down and just be patient. Unless he delays again, which, would be kinda hilarious and sad at the same time.

lol that would be hilarious

I think its kind of crappy that the author was doing us a favor by setting up a pool first only to get undercut by someone else. Especially when the author isn't pre-mining. Then again I'm guessing his pool will start first so we will see.

Well, 4% is not a favor. It's gouging. Had he gone with 1-2% I would support his pool in principle. But 4% is almost unheard of. Also, a diversity of pools is useful when some will inevitably go down.

I agree with this if it was at 2% I would donate 1% just to help out...but forcing 4% is out of my comfort zone. I would rather donate to the op via address than mine on that pool.

HOLY SHIT IT WAS RELEASED ON GITHUB 30 MINUTES AGO , PEOPLE HAVE ALREADY STARTED MINING AND THE DIFFICULTY HAS GONE UP ALREADY!!!  HURRY UP GET ON IT PEOPLE

All of the changes on github are labelled as "Not ready to mine yet" - I think everyone is mining the wrong blockchain.

[toTOW]

OP should make a donation adress, so he can get some funds to promote the coin, also big miners should help with promotion

That will probably be funded by the official pool (https://www.catcoinpool.org/) which has 4% fee ...

Speaking about this, can we get the pool parameters (protocol/url/port) so that we could get our miner launch scripts ready ?

Then if that is what you want to do, then do it. Just naggin about the pool fee is crazy, don't want a fee, then solo mine. It just blows me away how some act when talking about the pools. Those people are doing you a service, and a small fee is nothing compared to compiling, running, maintaining, and paying the bills for those servers. I have no problem with 4% to 5% at all.

[toTOW]

Fee have just been reduced to 2% on the official pool !

I hope it will be able to handle the load fine ...

[Last1212]

Too slow coin isnt it?

[incorrect]

Great another coin for the megahashers to take over and raise the difficulty to 100 before the days end.

If it gets stuck, a hardfork can fix it

No, it's not. Nothing has been released yet

Without the windows wallet the launch will be anything but fair.

I am fine with 2-3% thanks.

He promised one.

But You don´t need a wallet to start mining, - at least for pool mining.

[lulutis2000]

i want to start minning solo as well, so please put the wallet before launch the coin.

Yeah it's good to have a pool to start with but since it's a launch solo mining it's another option to take in consideration...at least on the first hours

But is it worth solo mining if you don't have high k/hash or m/hash?

Get ready to mine yourself some Catcoin! MEOW!

Only 2% FEE

If you love cats and coins, or even just one or the other, you'll want to sign up for our Catcoin pool right meow--before the coin launches this evening.

http://cat.poolofpools.com/

stratum+tcp://cat.poolofpools.com:3341

We'll be mining Cinnamon Coin (CIN) until then (and you can see your progress until CAT launches, including hashrate, etc. at our CIN pool page, cin.poolofpools.com), but as soon as the coin is live, we'll switch the pool over automatically (you might notice a minute or two of downtime as stratum restarts) and you'll be meowing in the Catcoins.

The dashboard at our Catcoin pool will also go live when the pool switches to actually mining Catcoins as soon as the coin is launched.

Our server has 12 cores, 32 GB ram, SSD hard drives in RAID, a gigabit internet connection, and more Blue Wilderness Duck than any kitty could ever want.

As a bonus, with a Catcoin account at Pool of Pools, you can also mine any of our other coins with the same login information. We currently offer Doge Coin, Fast Coin, Galaxy Coin, and Cinnamon Coin, with Stable Coin coming in the very near future.
