Was looking at 8gb system ram, so hopefully that will be enough? have heard people running 16 with the 290's?

12GB minimum for 270/290, 16GB is optimal. 4GB is all you need for 280X.

Where did you get this info on the 270s? I have 3 systems, containing 4/8/16GB of RAM. The systems with 8/16 use the same TC, but the 4 doesn't. Actually right before I wrote this post I took 8 out of the 16 and threw it into the box that had 4 and all my TCs are the same now. I would say its 8GB for the 270 from personal experience, don't know about other cards.

I'm curious what makes Bitcrush so popular? 1450 miners and 1.4Ghash, even with registrations closed.

Was wondering the same thing. They even charge higher fees

Screw the pooch.  I dumped them all today and picked up more VTC for .005

Doge was ok for a quick buck, but the coin had no chance to be a real contender.  The only good long term coins will be ones that are taken seriously.

getting about .06 coins per block on p2p with 6870 @163Kh/s and 290x @ 461Kh/s - total of 624Kh/s.  is this normal?  is anyone getting more with similar speeds?

What pool and what miner are you using?  I can't get the miner running on my 6850.  I've been mining the hell out of WorldCoin, and would love to switch to something else.

I asked the IRC bot.

<VertBot17> roy7: At 624KH/s (equivalent to 1248KH/s with regular scrypt), you should make 4.06 VTC per day at current diff.

So you should make about 4/day on average if diff remains the same. The coins you get per block will vary based on the # of shares you have in the share chain and the number of blocks p2pool finds. But over time it will average out properly.

Vertcoin P2Pool Hashrate: 467MH/s, P2Pool Share Diff: 0.062 (4k), P2Pool User: 138, P2Pool Luck: 77.2% (79 blocks in 24h).

So the network is unlucky past 24 hours. (Maybe the luck % is thrown off by the skyrocketing diff earlier today, I'm not sure.) If you had .06 in the share chain all day long, you'd have made 4.7 VTC today.

Vertcoin TROLL guide

Species of Trolls that can be found in the Vertcoin Thread.

- Trolls that own LTC and are scared people will sell LTC and buy VTC
- Trolls that own DOGE and are scared people will sell DOGE and buy VTC
- Trolls that own any type of scrypt coin that is not ASIC proof with N-factor
- Trolls that are pissed they sold at $0.50 per coin three days ago
- Trolls that are pissed they sold today at 0.004 today during the dump
- Trolls that want cheap VTC and will speak the usual FUD to try to drink cheap coins
- Trolls that are mad they have to do a little extra work to mine a coin that will make them 10x more than other coins in the long run

And the biggest is :

--->> Trolls that are currently waiting months for their new Scrypt ASIC rig to show up in the mail.

Expect them to be posting here constantly.
VTC > LTC > BTC

My personal favorite was the guys saying that vertcoin isn't ASIC resistant right now, but will be in 2 years.  
Or the guy that said vertminer was going to kill his GPU.  
Or the guys saying that VTC is a pump and dump.  

These guys are class acts, great post!

PPLNS or p2pool? Can you post your settings?

Pplns, I20, TC 24550, engine 1070, mem 1500. powertune +50, You're welcome

my powertune maxes out at 20, or at least i think so, how did you get 50?

I did pt 20 and my board smelled like it was cooking, and also ruined 1 psu, on another the wires cought fire, don't use +pt  or mess with voltage unless u want to fry ur equip

[roy7]

Powertune +20 just turns off the power saving features that lower gpu performance when the drivers don't think it is needed. Voltage I never ever touch.

It's too early to tell, but at least it isn't based off a meme.  The Doge community is fun, but it's a joke.  It's hard to bring skeptics into crypto when things like the Doge are popular.

hey Basnoff, thanks for asking on this. it's quite concerning to me as i traded cold hard cash this afternoon for that trade. Far as i can see there's no way to see what's going on. just feels worse than walkin in the bronx waving $100 bills...
Suggestions are appreciated.

New Vertcoin P2Pool 0% Fee

http://vertcoin.fairuse.org:9171/

Operated on the west coast in the US. Enjoy!

could you point me to some place that has a thorough guide on how to setup a p2pool for vertcoin?  i had compiled vertcoin-qt and vertcoind on my linux virtualbox, also compiled the vertcoin_scrypt stuff for the p2p, but when running the p2p itself, it couldn't connect and kept giving me authentication errors, even though vertcoin.conf was setup correctly.  any help would be awesome.

Here's my vertcoin.conf:

Code:

rpcuser=user
rpcpassword=put pass here
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1

addnode=88.191.185.113
addnode=192.241.125.215
addnode=192.241.125.216
addnode=192.241.125.217
addnode=192.241.125.218
addnode=192.241.125.219
addnode=192.241.125.220
server=1
daemon=1

I also used this version of P2Pool - not sure if it matters:
https://github.com/donSchoe/p2pool-vtc

Hope this helps!

Edit: Rereading your post, you need to compile the daemon, not the GUI client. See the instructions at the Github link.

thanks a bunch, i will try to battle this thing later tonight.

No problem, good luck!

I changed my config to the above and raised my kh/s to 482kh/s per card. I use 2 radeon 290 r9. so thanks for that!  
cards running on 84c & 77c.

What miner are you guys using for ATI and Windows?  I can't get the VTCminer to stay open.

[jballs]

Poloniex works great. I can't stant lag on coinedup and cryptsy

Just want to add I used poloniex quite a bit the first couple days they listed VTC. The site works great and fast deposis and withdrawals.

So how about move your money there if you dont like cryptsy. Start a thread and all move at once and instant liquidity. I have never traded on cryptsy but poloniex site loads a lot fater and their charts are as good if not better as well.

Just sayin move or shut up already its your own damn fault.

Perhaps because of the us server ? better ping = better efficacy ? I am wondering...

kilovolt.co.uk  pool seems the owner run away with our coins!

There are many USA p2pool nodes though, beyond just the first two I launched. Hmm.
