Is this sha or scrypt?

"Super secure hashing: 9 rounds of hashing from 6 hashing functions (blake, bmw, groestl, jh, keccak, skein). 3 rounds apply a random hashing function."

So neither it is like Quark.

How one becomes a node? What are the hardware/network requirements?

This one is the most interesting:

Infinity coins

I expect big dump.

Remember guys to mine this coin, you need to mine with a QUARK alogorythms.
A good miner for this can be found: https://github.com/Neisklar/quarkcoin-cpuminer

Code:


apt-get update && apt-get install git autotools-dev automake build-essential libcurl4-openssl-dev -y 
git clone https://github.com/Neisklar/quarkcoin-cpuminer.git 
cd q* && ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make

To run:
/minerd -a quark -t 8 -o URL -u RPC/POOL USER -p PASSWORD

P.S. If anyone is selling SEC, jump onto IRC, freenode #secondscoin to find me, im currently buying.

For those who are having problems with their wallets:

Go to help -> Debug window -> Press tab: Console and add the following nodes:

addnode sec.mine-pool.net add
addnode 54.201.35.239 add

You should have more than one connection after a few minutes. I currently have 7.

The Pool might be a bit easier.

Any pools where you create workers and all that?

The wallet is not syncing 'no blocks source available'.

Tried editing the .config file but not working.

CPU only, I like it.

let's try those pools

How i can mine with Linux Ubuntu?

How i can mine with Linux Ubuntu?

You will need a CPUminer, its recommended for best hash rate to use one with quark algorithms.
Such a miner can be found here:
https://github.com/Neisklar/quarkcoin-cpuminer

Ubuntu:

Code:

apt-get install build-essential libcurl4-openssl-dev git autotools-dev automake -y && git clone https://github.com/Neisklar/quarkcoin-cpuminer.git 
cd q* && ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make

Unlimited coin I think there is no market.

总币量无限，不推荐!

Quote from: skwinx on December 23, 2013, 10:13:21 AM

Unlimited coin I think there is no market.

总币量无限，不推荐!

...now consider block halving and difficulty increase.
If coded correctly a unlimited coin can work, it just means the reward would be so small latter on its not worth it to mine other then for transaction fees.

If someone is interested in buying SEC, please PM me with your offer.

Estoy intentando minar pero no lo consigo, alguien me puede ayudar en español?

Selling SEC, please PM me with your offer

Ok, I think it is really 60seconds for one block. The start was weird, when I alone (notebook) made a few blocks per minute alone^^

selling 100k SEC pm for offers

Selling 100sec, pm me offers

I think you should make a giveaway or something to promote this coin. It can't be on a 4th page Tongue

its easy to mine because of 60 secs. wish it wasnt unlimited.

Cant find block sources
help pls Huh

Selling 500 SEC PM me with your bid.

Another Quark algorithm clone coin... Cool

Selling 2-3k SEC pm offers.

One thing I always install together is htop
to monitor the use of VPS (Memory, files, open processes...)

apt-get install -y build-essential git screen htop

Then to see the use
$ htop

I always use the supervisor to start the miners, but can not Minerd, if one could, would like to post?

2100 SEC, anyone interested?

ill buy 2100, if the price is right?

I sell 100 SEC, PM me.

Anyone else noticed huge difficulty increase in last hour or so?

My wallet don't want to synchronize

actually yes I did notice an increase in difficulty

it might be getting popular even though it has the disadvantage to be unlimited. (wouldnt that cause some kind of inflation in the future)

fingers crossed.

because http://sec.forkpool.com:6030/static/ has a 5% fee (wtf) and the other one is 1% , there now exists darkhosis.nogleg.com:1911 with a 0% fee

for the "Secondscoin"

zvs,
darkhosis.nogleg.com:1911 it is your pool?
the foorkpool stopped paying ... has more than 2 hours and I'm mining for'm no longer receiving payments...

I have 1,2k SEC to sell, PM if you are interested.

VOILA

not that i think any of these alt currencies have much value, but that's pretty low to be touting some 5% fee pool

1% or 2%, sure

shit is ridiculous

i think this needs to be 51%'ed

They do not report having fee.
Tomorrow I'll put a 32cores amazon if you have time to test the pool.
Thank you for warning.

http://sec.forkpool.com:6030/fee

the other one has it hidden and/or removed, supposedly it's 1%, but i'm not positive about that

i'm at 80mhash but i'm out of servers now

heh, the difficulty is up a lot.. going to move back to pts

i'll reset my p2pool if anyone wants to use it, i'm going to set it to just 3 block retention

zvs, I'm using...

Wallet: BNuP11...

If you leave off, let me know please.

hello. So, secondscoin, is there any news? )

WTB BTC0.5 worth. PM your offer.

Selling 550 SEC PM me with your bid pls

0% 1% fee. It's bullshit.
I need to pay for server, for online chat, for my time. And you think it`s all for free?
Do you see how much pools closed? Do you think why?
And you can see how much fee on all my pools. It's not secret.

SEC should be worth around... 120@BTC0.0035

That sound about right to anyone?

I have no clue of it's value, but I would love for this to hit an exchange and see what happens. Haven't seen much Activity lately... Was thinking of solo-mining, but dunno.

I have a few thousand. PM me for sale

Hi,

Since not all users of this coin are as active as you are, may I ask for a feature in a future wallet version?

Please implement one of the following features:
1) an autoupdate feature which automatically keeps the QT updated without the user doing anything (or with the user just clicking an "update" button which only appears when new updates are available - but where the entire update process is done automatically)
2) a notification feature where the user can enter his eMail address into the wallet and the wallet sends him an eMail when a new version is available? That requires - of course - that the wallet has a way to check for updates. But since Microsoft/Apple/Adobe/andalltheothers can do it, so can you :-)
3) (for those who don't even run their QT all the time) a notification feature where the user can enter his eMail address into the wallet and the wallet sends that eMail address plus its own version information to a central server of yours which then sends out an eMail when a new software version is available. And which sends a warning eMail when a mantatory update has to be performed.

Naturally, as of today, the Cryptocurrency-community has been very active but with the price explosion of the Bitcoin last month, more and more "normal users" will enter the market.
They will not keep their wallet running all the time.
They will not check the forum all the time.
But they might spend hard cash on buying this coin at an exchange and then send it over to their wallet. As a community, we even need that kind of passive user - and we need their money buying this coin.
And when they find ways to spend or donate the coin, they will. And for that purpose they will open their wallets - but not in between.

Having said this, I personally prefer feature (3) because it has a few advantage over the other 2:

It keeps even those "passive" users in the loop that do not run their wallet regularily.
That way, if a really important change has to be made (e.g. a new blockchain), even those users won't lose their money because they get a notification. Think of the bad publicity when "normal users" start losing their money because they simply ignored their wallets for months only to find them not working anymore because weeks before, a new blockchain or equally invasive measure was introduced without them knowing.
That feature can be extended for marketing purposes: add a checkmark "the makers of this coin are allowed to send me exciting news about this coin yaddayaddaya" - and voila you get yourself a free marketing database with tons of eMail addresses that you can use to keep engaging your users. Notify them of new shops where they can pay with this currency. Notify them of faucets. Notify them of exchanges that trade this coin. Notify them of the rise in value of that coin. And so on. Just keep engaging even the passive users - because to make a currency successful, you need every hand and every dollar you can get.

You guys and all the other professionals or those that have privacy concerns won't use that feature - and should never be required to do so. But the regular passive user will get that fuzzy feeling that he will be informed of important stuff without him spending much time checking bitcointalk or their wallets. And that will give him extra confidence when it comes to him spending the coin or buying the coin with his FIAT.

Just a few additional remarks:

Naturally, the best possible combination would be (3) with (1) where the users gets a "move your ass and update your wallet or else..." eMail (friendly version, of course) - and then he opens the wallet and clicks on the "update" button and that's it for him.
May be the required serverside portion (the thing that collects all version information and the eMail addresses and which also allows for sending out mass eMails to all users in that database) could be written in a generic way so that other virtual currencies can implement that feature, too?
May be, future wallets should have a default setting that causes them to run in the background as a service whenever the computer starts. That way, even many passive users will contribute to the P2P network without them even knowing. But that was just a sideline remark and describes a completely different feature request. But then again, while you are at it... :-)

Don't know. What do you guys think about that feature request?
Does anyone second that request?
Does anyone have a better idea how to solve the above mentioned challenges that this new species of regular, passive users will introduce in the weeks and months to come?

Thanks
Matt

P.S. Just a full disclosure: I have posted this same feature request to the thread of some other cryptocurrencies as well.

Has something strange in the pool http://darkhosis.nogleg.com:1911
Yesterday I put mine for a dedicated server that I use to have PTS: AMD FX 8350 with 30gb of ram and 8 core 16 vcore.
And my payment dropped and the other being that the increased speed of the pool when I tripled it. 250kh / s.

Here is the warning, even 0% fee is not worth it!

Looking at your sig, it is a good thing that some QRK clone coins are dying off. Not exactly a surprise either. About 6 more could go and there'd still be enough choice!

I accept to give up on the project continued. At least to put in an exchange.

Someone more experienced agrees also to continue with the coin?

This's not a clone. It's a derivative. This has different economic model.

I'm guessing this coin is three quarters dead. Thinking of deleting my coins
