[ANN] [ASIC-RESISTANT] UltraCoin (UTC) - Ultrafast 6 second transactions!!

[xwebnetwork]

Got the live news feed working!

http://ultracoin.net/feed/demo.php

Now to stylize and integrate into the news page instead of the static text.

will you be able to offer that as rss? I could make use of that.

RSS is actually built into Facebook already. Just need to find the right codes.

As I had mentioned yesterday, I am going around posting a MINIMUM of 5 times on news articles and content regarding UTC. I have been shooting for articles revolving around Scrypt ASICs and what not. Anyways, with that being said, do your part too and make some posts. Here are five that you can copy and post if you want. Makes it that much easier. And onward!

Code:

With Scrypt ASICS already here, and getting more powerful by the day, what are you to do with your GPU mining equipment? How about mine UTC. Its ASIC resistance is a key factor in maintaining a fair balance for all. Couple that with the fastest transaction times of ANY coin and you've got yourself something special. Furthermore, due to the NFACTOR integration, far less power is required to mine at an effective rate.

If you already have GPU miners set up, have a look at Ultracoin. Similar to VTC but more power efficient, larger community, and MUCH quicker transactions. Most global transactions are confirmed in sub 30 seconds which is a massive improvement over other alts. http://ultracoin.net

If you already have GPU miners set up, have a look at Ultracoin. It is being proclaimed as one of the most power efficient, quickest transacting coins ever built. It is also ASIC-Resistant. Most global transactions are confirmed in sub 30 seconds which is a massive improvement over other alts, especially considering E-Commerce and movement of capital. http://ultracoin.net

Consider this your notice in advance. Scrypt coins, like SHA256 before them, will be dominated by ASICs very soon. If you already have GPU miners set up, have a look at Ultracoin. It is being proclaimed as one of the most power efficient, quickest transacting coins ever developed. It is ASIC resistant and most global transactions are confirmed in sub 30 seconds, which is a massive improvement over other alts, especially considering E-Commerce and movement of capital. http://ultracoin.net

Well, that about does it for Scrypt mining, at least for the layman. Moving on to the next best thing. In fact, that actually seems to be Ultracoin, a Scrypt-Jane derivative. If you already have GPU miners set up, you owe it to yourself to have a look. It is being proclaimed as one of the most power efficient, quickest transacting coins ever built. It is also ASIC-Resistant. Most global transactions are confirmed in sub 30 seconds which is a massive improvement over other alts, especially considering E-Commerce and movement of capital. http://ultracoin.net

Contact form on the website has been fixed. A few more things to address for the night and then I'm calling it until tomorrow.

Looks like pump really happened on cryptsy, until someone dumped 1500 utc, now its at same price about

1500 UTC wouldnt be enough to kill a pump, thats only 0.3-0.4 BTC

Hey guys, just installed the patch on CGminer.  It seems to have worked but when I run it I get this error

I don't think my solution will work for you... I fixed it by removing the 5450 from my system lol  ... you don't have any other video cards connected? Possibly your MOBO has a built in video card? If thats the case you'd have to disable it using windows device manager

 That is not the case, I use this for mining all the time   Maybe I have a setting set weird.  I will check the config.

[xwebnetwork]

What's your config look like?

[phaddie]

What's your config look like?

It is like this

I like this Nitro2 pool! Rejects are lowest I have seen. 0.002% after 30 hrs mining. Great Job guys.

[xwebnetwork]

@phaddie

Try running it with the following config (pulled from Nitro2). This has been noted as a very successful configuration for most miners using 290's. And seeing that its only 1 card, RAM should not be an issue.

Code:

{
"pools" : [
        {
                "name" : "UTC (Name does not matter)",
                "url" : "stratum+tcp://pickaxe.pool.pm:3306",
                "user" : "phadcoin.1",
                "pass" : "1234"
        }
],
"api-port" : "4028",
"expiry" : "10",
"kernel" : "scrypt-jane",
"kernel-path" : "/usr/local/bin",
"log" : "5",
"queue" : "0",
"scrypt-jane" : true,
"sj-nfmin" : "4",
"sj-nfmax" : "30",
"sj-time" : "1388361600",
"gpu-threads" : "1",
"auto-fan" : true,
"gpu-engine" : "1040",
"gpu-memclock" : "1400",
"gpu-powertune" : "20",
"scan-time" : "30",
"intensity" : "18",
"temp-target" : "88",
"temp-overheat" : "90",
"temp-cutoff" : "95",
"temp-hysteresis" : "2",
"vectors" : "1",
"worksize" : "64",
"lookup-gap" : "2",
"thread-concurrency" : "42000"
}

Also make sure to run:

setx GPUMAXALLOCPERCENT 100
setx GPUUSESYNCOBJECTS 1

From the command prompt as admin.

Trying it right now

exactly the same problem.  I am wondering if the problem is that I patched a version of Kalroth and not an original cgminer?

[jjj0923]

could use some help  downloaded cgminer from link in post #1

unzipped ADL_SDH_6

un tarred source
there's a .patch.gz in the but it won't untar with -zxvf


any ideas?

root@myserv:/etc/cudaminer/cgminer-build# tar -zxvf cgminer-3.7.2-sj-0.02.patch.gz
tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
root@myserv:/etc/cudaminer/cgminer-build#

in addition I'm running 5 MSI R9 280X boards - any guidance setting parameters for these boards for Ultracoin?

thanks

[xwebnetwork]

@Phaddie, yeah, that could be it. Have you tried downloading the miner from here? http://ultracoin.net/mining.html

[phaddie]

@Phaddie, yeah, that could be it. Have you tried downloading the miner from here? http://ultracoin.net/mining.html

  Yip, I just downloaded a standard cgminer version and it is working (I think) now.  I need to play with settings a bit methinks.  I should be seeing approx 150 k/h on each of my r9 290 right?

  Phad.
