[ANN][MAX] MAXcoin - PoW, ASIC Resistance, Keccak GPU Mining

[paulthetafy]

I can't download the wallet either, and others are already mining. Fair launch my ass.

You can't mine yet - this is tesing and benchmarking the algorithm only.  so yes this is fair.

Learn to read, nobody is mining MaXcoin yet.

I apologize I must be in some form of temporal vortex or something because what I read said. Tl;dr - SHA-3 coin. Launches 7.30PM GMT on Wednesday 5th February 2014. More info to be seeded out via @MaxCoinProject. Not a fork of dogecoin which has past. I have found the twitter now though and seen about the relaunch.

The relaunch is mentioned dozens of times in this thread today, with reprints of the official announcements that were found on twitter and reddit.

You would see they are no longer using bitcontalk.org for the release info.

are we there yet.....are we nearly there? this drive is taken ages

[Vargpost]

We're postponing the launch of MaxCoin by 24 hours after today's events. The new launch time will be 7.30PM GMT Thursday, 24 hours after original launch.
To keep you guys in the loop, here's our thought process for this decision.
After we prepped our ANN for [Suspicious link removed] 7.30PM GMT launch the site crashed under heavy load for around 10 minutes. The MaxCoin site crashed simultaneously for a similar time. This happened a few more times before it came to our attention that a stable launch from BitcoinTalk would not be possible.
While preparing alternative options for launch (the launch channels will now be via Reddit, Twitter and MaxCoin.co.uk) one of our prepared pool operators withdrew their support claiming they were uncertain they would be able to support the load of miners.
We are uncomfortable launching without two stable pools, not to mention doing so in the midst of confusion between a last minute launch location switch and large traffic spikes. With these three issues combined, we have made the decision to delay the launch until this infrastructure is better established and the news is able to spread about the new sites to participate in the launch from.
Our apologies to everyone that this inconveniences, we're as disappointed as you, but feel this is the correct way to proceed under the circumstances. It is our hope that by postponing and making sure this is done properly we will achieve a more stable debut than by gritting our teeth and crossing our fingers through an already chaotic launch.
To avoid similar issues, we will be distributing the software from tomorrow morning (GMT) under password protected archives so it is possible to download these throughout the day, both via official site download and torrents, assuring everybody has access to the files in time for the launch. All guides will be available in advance and mining will begin upon password announcement.
The screenshots and claims of advance mining are of course fake, one reason we must move to more stable announce channels is to ensure everybody is able to have a fair chance to mine from the commence of the network.
Thanks for your patience, and sorry once again.

Will it worth mining Maxcoin with a cpu ? Will ASICS flood this coin until cpu unminability, total usefulness, irrefutable non-profitability ?

RealSolid has announced MaxCoin is going to be added to mcxNOW! [ref link] (just next to MinCoin for ultimate lol )

Nice fake to get people to click on your referral link for mcxBUX.

It is a ref, but of course it's not a fake. He announced it on the chat.

You shouldn't mine it, leave it for us to mine.

Asics can not mine it.. do not worry about that at all.
But do worry about massive botnets hoping on this fast.. and i would not be surprised if Max himself did not have one ready to go
he'd be stupid not to lol
And i know this because i have watched how botnets have taken over on Quark and Securecoin from day / block 1
Now a days on the SRC (Securecoin) pool i am on i see RIGHT NOW this in the stats..

So what that means is it will not take very long for those guys and many many MANY more big players to hop on this new coin fast !!!
I have watched how Botnet op's hit CPU minable coins like vultures.. what you see above is them doing light mining when the diff  and value is bad..
you should see when the diff is low and value is up.. they come out of the wood work fast and hard lol
And that is a small sample of the power that will be unleashed very soon.. many of these guys are on all sorts of other CPU minable coins
..and will hope over asap guaranteed

I have already built my Max Keiser coin miner mod and tested it and i think i am ready for release
Was not hard.. the paid dev (coin cloner) simply took Neisklar's Quark CPU miner code and cut out the other algos not needed
and then changed the SHA3 algo to 256 instead of 512 and changed like 3 strings and compiled lol
Hope he didn't pay em much money for all that hard work ahahaha

There will be some bot nets configured and waiting to mine right now. They will not doubt cause a few coin forks early on whilst the diff is low, so watch out for that. Make sure you have lots of confirms before trying to transfer any coins.

[CHebur]

When will be release or it was?

No, it's the source code.  One can compile it for any platform including Ubuntu or Windows.

Exact same file is still available, you may find it in the cloud mining guide: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=450539.0
