[Announce] Fairbrix relaunched!

[coblee]

I just like the fact that there isnt 7.7 million pre-mined coins.. a lot!

However, is there support behind this Coin? Development?

Well, that's my worry too, that's why I am mining more of Solidcoin 2 as the earlier Solidcoin has shown a lot of good organization.

I will support it as much as I can. Unfortunately, you get what you pay for so to speak. With 7.7 premined coins, Lolcust has a lot of incentive to support Tenebrix. With 5% tax, CoinHunter has a lot of incentive to support SolidCoin. Whatever little fbx I have were orphaned by the attack. So I don't have that much incentive. The only reason why I spend time making it better or talking to pools and exchanges is because I feel responsible for it since I kicked off the relaunch.

So yeah, if you mine now when the difficulty is still low, you may get paid off handsomely if I manage to convince an exchange to support this coin. And if not, you would have wasted your time. Your choice! I will do the best I can.

So, no hint of an exchange yet?

Also, when a chain is small like this, checkpoint updates are a good idea.

Funny thing is. this could be a sleeping beast Maybe one day someone will take it over.. you never know

No, once again your "humor" shows utter lack of refinement

Thanks for the suggestion kano. I have already updated the source with a checkpoint at block 5000. Have not built another windows binary though. If an exchanges comes up, I will work on it.

I'm working on an exchange for GG and TBX, don't see why i couldn't add FBX. Will continue it after I get through with SC 2.0. Keep mining you FBX.

Is there any sense to devising some sort of standard 'coin API' to make it easy for new coins to be supported by existing exchanges?

That's what we need man. I can dump my new ShitCoins / ScamCoins faster than you can say "exchange" LOL !!!

I've updated first post with some new information on mining.

I think copying the .conf really is not necessary on windows. it will happily use the local file.

https://github.com/ArtForz/cpuminer - Fastest but experimental

How to run it as fastest.
There are 5 algos, which is the fastest to use in windows?

Code:

--algo XXX
(-a XXX) Specify sha256 implementation:
        c               Linux kernel sha256, implemented in C (default)
        4way            tcatm's 4-way SSE2 implementation
        via             VIA padlock implementation
        cryptopp        Crypto++ C/C++ implementation
        cryptopp_asm32  Crypto++ 32-bit assembler implementation

Make sure you downloaded the cpumine branch. It should default to scrypt algo.

i dont understand, which branch?
can u give link?

If you gitcloned github.com/ArtForz/cpuminer then just compile and run the miner without specifying algo. I guess these options are left from the original cpuminer. They are irrelevant for Tbrix/Fbrix mining.

I got 1.78 KH/s per thread with Artforz's miner instead of 1.44 KH/s with Tbrix miner on a Xeon E5320.

Windows 7, 64 bit.
I downloaded cpuminer from 1st post & created a batch file & run it with out algo & getting this.

How are you downloading it?
Are you doing "git clone git://github.com/ArtForz/cpuminer.git" ?

[dishwara]

oops....
I downloaded from here.

Is there any way to get precompiled windows client?

Try using the one compiled for Litecoin:

Let me know if that works.

zlib1.dll missing
libiconv-2.dll is missing.
libintl-8.dll is missing.
pthreadGC2.dll is missing

i copied every file from tenebrix & now i am getting,
