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

Despite the asinine comments, I did upgrade the wallet. Now it's synching at an acceptable rate. We'll see where it goes. Thanks to The Real Steve for being nice, and trying to be helpful

Of course you upgraded it but you need to learn to give credit and respect to people who helped you regardless of the way they have chosen to help you.

You're right.

Proper credit. Having now upgraded, and watched the fucking thing crash again and again and AGAIN and still not be up to the current block, or even close.

Thanks. Thanks a lot. I don't know why or how this coin trades. Perhaps it requires running linux, or a cloud service, or OSX, but it is fucking BROKEN for windows. I'll not ever get the few coins I've supposedly got in the pipeline, and your welcoming attitude has made the desire fade below zero. I just made your coin more valuable, as I've destroyed the private keys.

You're welcome.

Only one pool is finding blocks, and the wallet moves slower than a glacier.

Well, that's not true - there's 4 major pools, with 1gh clearly being the biggest;
(click for large)

Were you going to mine with the client, though?  I'd imagine the external miners would be more efficient - and you wouldn't have to worry about how far the client has synced.

I mined at 1GH. Tried several others. I was using a rental. I generated an address with the client for payout. I shut it off after about 9 hours of it jacking up my bandwidth to download something like 100 blocks.

If there isn't a blockchain download, then I'm just out 27 coins. If the client is this slow to sync, after just a few months, then I can't see any reason why I would mine it again. It's profitablity is highly variable. It could easily become valueless before the client syncs. I should have known when the official website was not available, and I had to search the internet like crazy to find a viable download.

Lesson learned.

The truth is you are the one of many who are jacking up others' bandwidth with your outdated Maxcoin wallets. Fucking morons. How
about bookmarking Maxcoin GitHub and then occassionaly do a check to see if there is a new, updated wallet posted there?

Blacklisted on firewall, you ain't gonna drain my bandwidth anymore, irresponsible dumbasses. Now f-off!  

Why the dev doesn't write code to disconnect with older wallets?
Is there anyone can provide it?

First thing to try is run client with -reindex option. If client still crashes then it is Windows fucked up somewhere, reinstall it or create virtual machine with
https://www.virtualbox.org and then fresh install Windows and client on it. If all previous steps fail then check your hardware, especially cooling system,
RAM and HDD.

did all of the above, two machines, two versions of windows (7 and , and one VM under VMware player, also running 7. Tried copying the blockchain to the point that it was at, tried synching from zero. Hell, I even tried starting over with a fresh wallet. The machine I'm typing on is less than a month old, and has a completely fresh install of 8 on it. I got sick of it. As I said in my last post, I burned it. Deleted the whole mess.

I'm stressed enough without my hobbies biting me. I do apologize for the snark, it was uncalled for and not my usual style. I play with a fair number of cryptos, and only SHA gave me this much trouble previously. Generally, the wallets work whether the coin has any merit or not.

I suppose I should learn Linux. It's an interesting system, but it's vastly different from Windows, and I don't learn new things as easily as I did in my youth

When syncing, Maxcoin normaly uses all CPU cores to 100% and with cooling not properly set that can cause major problems. You can use par=X
command in maxcoin.conf file to limit number of cores used to X where par=0 means all cores, par=1 means 1 core, par=2 means 2 cores and so on.

Note that each individual core would still be subject to ~100% load.  If limiting CPU load is a goal, see: http://mion.faireal.net/BES/

so far it is the only "celeb" coin endorsed by the actual person.

When MAX starts to move, DOGE coin will seem like a joke ....

I wouldn't put too much thought in the opinions of random people on forums.  I am new to the crypto scene, but I understand that relentlessly attacking an investment to scare people out works well to lower the price so you can buy up more at a cheaper price.

Do some due diligence on your own and see how it feels to you.  Maybe keep an eye on https://coinmarketcap.com/ and the like to see if you like how it plays out over time.

When I found out someone like Karl Grey (who has amassed a 100million dollar fortune off of bitcoin and litecoin) was upping his position in Maxcoin, I started paying attention.  I, personally, would rather listen to people who have a track record of successfully investing early. 

In fact, if Karl Grey farted and it kind of sounded like the name of a coin, I would put more stock in that than the banter around the web.
