given that the first 100 blocks are zero reward do you guys reckon i should bother pursuing solo mining to start with? my pc is 2x 12 core e5 xeons, dont sure if it will be worth solo, any advice much appreciated.
Thanks
Same resources here, i'll try by pool since the very beginning , my personal choice why are you going to try pool if you don#t mind me asking? |

Can Heavycoin be mined with minerd.exe, when mining other coins, I've used the following in my batch file:
minerd.exe -a scrypt -o stratum+tcp://stratum01.pool.com:3333 -u user -p password
Is it the same for Heavycoin, or will it require different switches?

3 main innovations: 1: new hashing thats designed to be anti asic and more secure (blends different encryption algo's) 2: miners vote on block rewards 3: improvement on the gravity well difficulty adjustment (you dont need a block solved to retarget difficulty). Now you can judge if you think the above is special - but IMO its better than most of the copy coins. Of course this all assumes it launches and delivers as promised. |

There are too much interest in this coin ,so much processing power out there ready to fire, to be honest my resources are not too big and , plus the first 100 empty blocks, everyone is going to be ready to mining when the first coins appear. |

Hashrapid is a SCAM POOL, please remove it from your launch.
+1 Hashrapid is a complete scam. They never paid out any of my MINT... They have taken 10's of thousands of MINT from me. Will never go back. |

Heavycoin has been added to The CPU Coin ListThe CPU Coin List is a sortable page of alternate cryptocurrencies that can be mined on your CPU. Here is the CPU Coin List thread on Bitcointalk. If you have any corrections or additions, just reply in the thread. |

Plus there is a solid initial value cause the IPO,Investors gonna try increase value and maybe limit the reward in the block |

I will be using CPUminer. Is this the right information for the Windows batch file?
minerd.exe -a scrypt -o stratum+tcp://stratum01.pool.com:3333 -u user -p password
or should it be:
minerd.exe -o stratum+tcp://stratum01.pool.com:3333 -u user -p password

In addition to mining (and voting) with the GUI wallets, you can use an external miner. For that, we've created a Heavycoin fork of cpuminer. Usage: minerd [OPTIONS]
Options:
-a, --algo=ALGO specify the algorithm to use
scrypt scrypt(1024, 1, 1) (default)
sha256d SHA-256d
heavy Heavycoin hash
-v, --vote=VOTE block reward vote
-m, --trust-pool trust the max block reward vote (maxvote) sent by the pool
More info: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=470391.msg5537068#msg5537068=> minerd.exe -a heavy -o stratum+tcp://stratum01.pool.com:3333 -u user -p password |

It will most likely be something like this: minerd.exe -a heavy -o stratum+tcp://stratum01.heavycoinpool.com:3333 -u user -p password Note the -a heavy ... Heavycoin does not use scrypt - rather it's own hashing function, and a SPECIAL CPU miner will be provided for this! Come join #HeavycoinPOOL chat if you got any further questions

Very true just think 1 block from solo mining may make it worth it. |
