The innovation in algo is notable, but I think this coin needs:
- a new, shorter name - a new, modern logo "coin like" - better marketing
Agreed. Also, is it MED or MDC ?? Shows MED in wallet client, official website says MDC :S

Agreed. Agreed and, just like majority around here, waiting for someone else to do it? The most newcomers to cryptos are missing the point of Open Source projects. They just want to get in for cheap and make a shitload of money doing nothing, preferably in a week or so. Only a few will get that, everyone else will most likely whine about investing money and losing it all because of all sort of reasons but not their own lazyness.

Kinda slow catching up to the chain ![Embarrassed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/embarrassed.gif) how many connections does your wallet have currently? some additional nodes could help: 162.243.18.169 95.85.43.185 162.243.224.22 162.243.222.173 Would it be hard or time consuming to temporaly add your peers.dat file to install archive and point MED wallet to check for that file at wallet's root? 1. Check if file exists at datadir, if yes use it, if not 2. check if file exists at wallet's root, if yes use it (and eventually copy to datadir), if not 3. create new file at datadir. Also, what always interested me but I never actualy asked or checked myself is if it would be possible to make freshly installed wallet ask for location of datadir, if user wants to run it as server and similar stuff? The whole .conf, .bat and command line idea, where user must have advanced knowledge of computers to perform some trivial actions, is so outdated and in many cases barrier to wallet usage and thus adoption. From dozens of persons I know that use computers like 1 person would know all it takes to have server running or datadir at for example drive D:

Been waiting for something like this to come along. Novel concept, waiting for my wallet to finish syncing then I'll be pointing my erupters at it ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Hopefully this coin does well, the hybrid algorithm is a great idea.

hi all, we are looking for a few volunteers to test the new p2pool source tree. It seems to work (meaning that we have already mined a few blocks with p2pool), but we would like to perform some more tests together with the volunteers; we would like to keep the testrun limited to a few people, so that we can manage easily possible problems with p2pool (we have added a new module for supporting the new PoW) and/or fine tune its configuration. Please pm me if you are interested to test p2pool. Anyway, all the source code for the p2pool fork is here: https://github.com/mrtexaznl/p2poolSo probably the more expert users can start testing p2pool right away (we have setup a bootstrap node called p2pool.mediterraneancoin.org, it's in the code so basically you just need to launch p2pool following the readme; also, you need to build the medcoin_hybrid python module, first of all). But please be warned that there could be some bug to be solved.

Will the mining work with GPUs instead of Asics?

yes, you should use the modified bfgminer.

really? what kind/number of devices are you using for mining? with four block erupters, I am finding more or less 1 block per hour (during the last 24 hours). if you need help, send me via pm the log output of mcproxy, miner etc to see if there is some kind of problem.

I must say IMHO this is very good idea of mixing scrypt and sha256. Might be more potential than LTC/ BTC in long run. In my opinoin ltc nor btc are future ready, they are 1st birds. This however looks much more promising to me.
greate work! you have my respect!

Sadly only have 1 erupter going lol. Bought it as a novelty a while back and I was hoping maybe it'd be able to find something here, but no luck so far. No errors that I can tell, it tells me there's no suitable long-polling available, but iirc that's normal and cgminer will just work without LP. I've got my queue set to 0, and scantime and expiry both lowered. Maybe I just have bad luck? ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) Hmm, come to think of it cgminer isn't notifying me of new blocks from the client, so maybe somethings up. What's the deal with mcproxy?

Well nevermind I guess, I just found a block. Must be ultra shitty luck haha. Did the later version of CGminer stop notifying you when new blocks are detected on the network or something?
I still have no idea what mcproxy is about, every time I run it nothing seems to happen but whatever I guess. My Java is up to date and whatnot as well. Computers be wack.

I have literally nothing. I click the .jar and the mouse spins like it is loading, javaw appears in the process explorer, but no gui or anything pops up. And when I try to run it from command prompt it tells me the file cannot be accessed. Now I'm curious as to how it's possible that I mined a block apparently without mcproxy which should be required, correct?

Copy the .jar file to a directory with java.exe (usually in c:\program files) and try to run from command line from that path. If your miner uses 8080 port then mcproxy should use a different one. I use this configuration: miner: bfgminer.exe -o localhost: 8090 -u adam -p pass --http-port 8080 -Q 0 mcproxy: java -jar mcproxy.jar -l 8090

Now I'm curious as to how it's possible that I mined a block apparently without mcproxy which should be required, correct? regarding the output from mcproxy.jar, if you double click on it, windows will use javaw for executing the program without a console, so you will not see any text/log output, but that's only needed if you need to debug something. in order to launch with java (not javaw), open an msdos (cmd), cd to the directory where mcproxy.jar and the lib directory is, and from there launch: "java -jar mcproxy.jar", and then you will see the output from mcproxy. Technical explanation of mcproxy: Mcproxy implements a necessary part of the new proof of work algorithm, we choose not to put the full algorithm in the miner for simpliticity (so it is easier to support more miners). In the future, we might put all the code inside one or more miners, it will depend on the success of the coin. In terms of performance, the Java JIT VM is pretty good, even compared to native code. So, you mined a block because mcproxy is working correctly (in the background, without seeing its output).
