Can someone tell me why this coin is so valuable after 2 days? Or what purpose it serves besides making its creator rich really fast ?

The sheep effect.

[hamiltino]

iv'e been mining for a little over an hours with 2 7970's and i have made 3.6 maxcoins.

3.6 * 24 = 86 maxcoins a day. Thats about $300 a day.

[Olbhap]

My cgminer is working fine but I can't configure the gpu fan with the --gpu-fan, any advice?

[organizer]

Anyone having luck tweaking settings in the 1GH CGMiner? I feel like i've tried a number of things, but hash seems to be what it is...

fuckin shitcoin i will never buy a single one

This coin is a total failure:

• developers never heard about testnet, and launched coin in real net
• released untested binaries, that simply don't run, because developers haven't ever heard about static linking
• they don't know how to make releases using github release system, and just push zipped binaries
• they don't know how to prepare source code for compilation, and then push unprepared code to repository (figuring out how to compile that code took me about 15-30 minutes, and I'm one of those "skilled nerds")
• think about all other people who wanted to participate in launch, and don't know how to compile code
• official pool "max.rocketpool.co.uk" is stealing maxcoins http://www.reddit.com/r/maxcoinproject/comments/1xcfu2/maxrocketpoolcouk_are_currently_thieves/
• the only pool that really worked (for me at least) was max.1gh.com until it was DDoSed to oblivion, and official twitter response: https://twitter.com/maxcoinproject/status/431571916764483585  - that it is a scam. You call that a good communitation between developers upon launch??
• how hard would it be for maxcoin to reach out for people who wish to cooperate before launch. But no - it is better to find out live, who is interested in creating pools.
• majority of miners are botnet owners right now, I don't want to see the crash when they decide to cash out. I will not be here anyway.

I'm out. If I ever see any article about maxcoin in any major outlet, my response will be exactly what they deserved.

You can quote this whole post on every new page in this thread, and give an address. I will send you 1 MAX to first person on every new page that quotes this. But what's the point, these MAX are worthless anyway. I have about 50 MAX to spend on that.

EDIT: I don't attribute to malice that which can be equally well explained by stupidity. But effect is the same: maxcoin is a failure due to incompetence, not due to malice.

I don't think it made the creators rich at all.. the two guys who launched it didn't premine.. and max isnt a miner.

the people who got rich are the botnet operators and those mining farm owners who had the inside info on the CUDA miner..
the way I see it is.. if the guys who launched MAXCOIN had the CUDA miner there is no way they would have released it to the public so early.

This coin might have failed being CPU only be I made about £80 in 12 hours with 1 280x XD  

I made almost £200 with 1 280x and 1 7950 in about 10 hours if not less since the pools were down 50% of the time... haha

So tell us the story - what did you do right that everyone else did wrong.... ?

he ddos both and mined solo 

Nope he sucked off Keiser

where i can download normal windows wallet?

https://github.com/Max-Coin/clients/releases/download/v1.0-windows/wallet-windows.zip

this is the official but it crashes for me on Win 8

I had problems with the Windows wallet too, even deleted everything but the wallet & conf file.

The issue (for me) tured out that I still had the gen=1 option in the conf file. I also deleted the other server settings and just left the addnodes in my conf. Worked fine from that point on, no crashes.

thanks

Why are you all wasting our time and resources on this dud of a coin, plenty of other coins to mine, and make money from.

I'll let you know when my new 280x comes on Monday thanks to MaxCoin.

lol or not...
half electricity cost
double money from any other coin. 1x7950 = at least 0.1 BTC/day I don't see any reason to mine anything else

I might be wrong, but I don't think devs release it. Cudaminer was available for free almost a day before launch.

Ban this fool for violating TOS.

[LuxBitcoin]

MAX should be trading around 0.000005 BTC maximum but come on, let the early miners sells their coins to some really dumb people first !  
Still having these stupid buyers paying 0.005 BTC for 1 MAX is amazing !!  

I guess in 1 or 2 weeks we'll be there... at around 0.000005 BTC, if not lower... great ROI  








STUPID BUYERS.... YOU'LL KICK YOURSELVES IN 2 WEEKS TIME !!!!

[dcgirl]

If you strategically remove one letter from MaxCoin, you get a better idea of what this coin actually is all about.

Hello!
I have problem with cgminer with keccak support(https://github.com/Max-Coin/cgminer).
I install his on Xubuntu 13.04:
CFLAGS="-O2 -Wall -march=native"
./configure --enable-keccak

Configure Options Summary:
libcurl(CGT+getwork).: Enable: -lcurl
curses.TUI...........: NOT FOUND. TUI support DISABLED
OpenCL...............: NOT FOUND. GPU mining support DISABLED
configure: error: No mining configured in
Why is this happening?
Whether the finished manual for installation steps?

It's invalid cgminer. Use cgminer from 1gh - it's fixed by 1gh folks. http://max.1gh.com/

Also, there are problems.
CFLAGS="-O2 -Wall -march=native"
./configure --enable-keccak

-bash ./configure: No such file or directory

if I use:
sh ./autogen.sh , then:
litecoin@litecoin-desktop:~/cgminer_keccak-master$ sh ./autogen.sh
Can't exec "libtoolize": No such file or directory at /usr/bin/autoreconf line 195.

      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.

Configuring...
./autogen.sh: 10: ./autogen.sh: /home/litecoin/cgminer_keccak-master/configure: not found

All, problem solved.
I enter sudo apt-get install libtool, but another problem arises again gives:
