[ANN] [MINT] Mintcoin (POS / 5%) [NO ICO] [Fair distro, community maintained]

Yeah I'm a little confused why or how the multipool will bring the price up?

You automatically mine the most profitable coin there is to mine -> its automatically converted btc which is then used to buy mint at market value -> when all of the offered mint is bought up then the pool automatically buys at the next available price.

Buy pressure.

Your mined coins get exchanged for Bitcoins. The operator uses the Bitcoins to buy Mintcoins on your behalf, then gives them to you. This increase buy pressure/demand, thereby pushing the price upwards. Very cool concept.

Since MINT is essentially a pure PoS stage going forward, the multi-pools will need to purchase large quantities of MINT in the open market to pay out miners. The increased buy volume should increase the price, though I would say with MINT's much higher total supply maybe not as concentrated an effect as with BC.

I updated the wishlist accordingly

That's what I thought. Ok makes sense. But what happens when it's not profitable to multipool for mint? The price drops again?

The multipool will switch automatically. This means if the multipool has your rig mining Litecoin and based on the mining difficulty and LTC/BTC exchange rate shows it's the most profitable, you will continue to mine Litecoin. Say for instance, Dogecoin prices keep rising like crazy because there is a lot of hype on Reddit, then the multipool will switch your miners to mine Dogecoin. It will automatically pick the most profitable coin to mine, profitable against Bitcoin. The mined coins will be exchanged for Bitcoins, then the Bitcoins are used to buy Mintcoin. There should always be an altcoin that is most profitable to mine, so that won't be an issue. It's now just a matter of people wanting to be paid out in Mintcoin which will keep the demand up. We need to get more people wanting to use a Mintcoin multipool versus some other altcoin multipool.

It's always profitable because you're multipooling other coins in order to get Mint. If you don't want Mint you wouldn't use the pool.

Very cool concept!

The Mint multi-pool doesn't have the slick user interface, but it works the same.

http://mintpool.us/mint/ is the multipool for mintcoin. The site isn't completely finished (obviously), but if you want to mine, stratum+tcp://mint.mintpool.us:4444 User: your mintcoin address, pass: X

Great, will point my miners on it

Hmm im not getting accepted shares.

Reject errors: 'Share is above target' or 'Duplicate share'

Edit: it is --scrypt algo, right?

[dogechode]

me too, getting only 'share above target' errors

[philipvdlinde]

I have bought back all my mint as soon as I heard this awesome news, this is the thing that mintcoin needs.

[rmoraos]

What altcoins are mined ? It would be nice more info about what happens when we point our miners (stats).

I am also having issues with the new pool. I switched over from the "other" multipool to this. Is anyone getting accepted shares?

I just got a few "Stratum connection to pool 0 interrupted." are they trying to fix it?

[philipvdlinde]

The most profitable altcoin will be mined constantly. I think that stats would come once the site becomes a little bit more complete.

This is the world of open source and cryptoanarchy. One can do as one pleases

and why bash MINT? I like both Mint and BC

Blackcoin trade volume and prices are steadily dropping. Mintcoin trade volume and prices are steadily rising.
