Greetings all! I got in this idea. I am interested to watch how the founders implement the plan.

after how many hours or days i should expect to earn something ?

Depends on your hashrate and luck.

hi，all. 

I forgot to update the client V0.3.11 from one vps, I can't complete the sync when I use the latest client today, and the  coins  previously before can't be displayed also. Has this .bat file been scrapped?

Or, with some measures, can keep coins before a certain time?

WE'VE JUST RELEASED A NEW CRITICAL UPDATE WITH SOME NICE FEATURES AS WELL, V0.3.11 - UPDATE REQUIRED THIS WEEK BEFORE BLOCK 96480 / NEXT HALVING
1. This release fixes the infamous segfault issue that sometimes stops a miner with a segfault and core dump at random times.
2. This release fixes an issue with the PoS algorithm that could allow someone to improve their odds in an unintended way. To the best of our knowledge, our discovery on this has never been exploited, and will not be an issue after block 96480. This is a change to the PoS algorithm, which is why it is a mandatory update. If you do not update by the next halving at block 96480, you will not be able to get to the chain until you do.
3. This  release also integrates the latest core Agama changes, including the fixes for the breaking changes that were made to Electrum servers for other Komodo family coins that support SPV/lite mode. The core Agama changes also include a feature to hide sensitive data on the screen for screen shots.
4. Finally, this release enables easy adding of an encrypted memo to private transactions from Agama with Verus. This feature works to send, but we don't consider it complete, because while you can add the memo, you can't yet easily read memos sent to you. You can send messages with a zero amount, but you will still be charged a fee of 0.0001 VRSC. The ability to retrieve memos sent to you currently requires the command line use of "z_listaddresses", "z_listreceivedbyaddress", and hex conversion, or you can wait for a later update, knowing that the memos are there to see at that time.
You can download the latest builds at https://veruscoin.io.

Please make sure to back up your wallet.dat before updating, just as a standard precaution that is likely unnecessary, delete the existing  App install folder, not the VRSC folder and  no other folders, then install and run the update.

Stop by our discord for the latest: Discord: https://discord.gg/VRKMP2S

What's the most efficient way to get notified about client updates asap, especially mandatory ones ? My client did not inform me.

Thanks and all the best for the project!

Congrats most with first "Transparent Balance" 
I noticed that many starting trade VRSC, its fine for volume.
But keep in mind , most coins are still permanent locked period up to 2 years.
So that, not so many coins are freely available.
Do not hurry to sell, after you will regret.

Thank you! I will see if we can get a notification in and working for a non-critical update in the near future.

hello i'm "mining" with the agama wallet since 2 days but no reward ? is this normal ?

thank's for your replay

Assuming you are on the latest Agama, then it all depends on how much hash you have and your ultimate luck. The hashrate is still near all-time highs so unless you are over a GH, expect days between rewards.

[tamara163]

hi guys! joined the mining. good luck to all of us!

[jk7ue]

I have been mining with 600MH/S and the last block was found three days ago. I guess difficult has been raised to new level used to at least one block per day.

600MS/s - What are you mining with? Config?

That's only like two Ryzen 1700 cpus...

I am using AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X 16-Cores and 30 threads 3.4GHz. But, I am only using 25 threads ar the moment. It can go higher with the max 30 threads.

When will the pool be ready? Needs to be better distributed since only larger miners can currently mine efficiently.

Working on a stratum miner. I'm hoping by this week.

Thanks for the reply. Keep up the good work.

Does anyone with a working stratum pool for Verus want to help test a new miner?

Miketout just completed coding on a VerusHash stratum miner, which we are looking to run against a pool. The easiest way would be with a pool that actually works or is thought to. The miner is complete from a code perspective and when it works, should be as fast as the wallet miner, which is currently the fastest crypto hash in the world on CPUs. We haven't tested this yet, as we'd prefer to run against a pool that is thought to work. Try at your own risk of crashing for now. If someone else doesn't organically bring up a pool this week, we'll probably do that as a community pool.

If anyone wants to look at the source code and changes over nheqminer, it's in miketout's personal github right now. All the equihash CUDA support is still there in addition to the new VerusHash support: https://github.com/miketout/nheqminer

[kissmarx]

Pardon my ignorance. But I would just like to know this: is it worthy to mine Verus (VRSC) in CPU nowadays?

If it isn't anymore worthy to mine by CPU, what is the best recommendation to mine this?

[BTC-BTC-BTC]

Is there any pool available to mine at the moment? Since there is no more timelock I would assume there should be a pool already somewhere.

Can I get any rewards for my testing procedures?
Please let me know about payment rates for testing work (if available), then I will join the testing phase.
