Source updated on GitHub + updated Windows and Mac OS X wallets released. Although not required, we do suggest updating at your earliest convenience.

• OctoCoin GitHub
• OctoCoin v1.0.0.1b Windows
• OctoCoin v1.0.0.1b Mac OS X

Is there a requirement for the version of Mac OSX. I noticed most OSX wallets I download do not work including this one.

I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.

It's no biggie. I'm running the Windows wallet already. Just curious if you have to have Mavericks or Lion/Mountain Lion versions of OSX.

Keep voting on Crytorush.in, 888 is rising quickly!  You can vote every hour and traders with a lot of volume can vote 16 times per hour, we should be able to push it up fast!

I believe he's just now really getting started, remember, he's gotta run wallets for every coin he supports plus all his web scripts and backend stuff. He's likely trying to save money on server costs while he builds his little empire. If people support his exchange he'll get it up to speed.

I'll vouch for Xnigma.  The guy who runs the site is super nice and friendly and has done a lot since the exchange launched less than a month ago.  It's still coming along.  Good little chat box with a lot of active members.  Hard getting volume on the exchange when everyone comes on there and just wants their new coin added!  Yes, there have been some hiccups here and there, but it's a good place to start!

Who Are We?
CharityMiningPools was created to allow miners the ability to mine coins while still knowing that their hashing power is going towards something good.  Our goal is to provide a positive and reliable service while delivering a small portion of the proceeds to a deserving recipient.  Plans are in the works to allow individual miners to choose where they would like to donate to based on a pool of available recipients.

How Does This Work?
All coins minded at CharityMiningPools will require a mandatory 0.5% Donation fee.  This donation fee will be collected and donated to the designated charitable recipient for that given month.  Though we only require a minimum 0.5% Donation fee, we welcome and encourage our miners to raise the stakes and donate more to a good cause.

Cheers!

While checking things out this morning I noticed a major oversight on my part. When things got moved around for added stability, I forgot to point octostratum2 to the new wallet location, so it's been sitting there doing a lot of nothing! If anyone's wondering why they couldn't mine on it, it's because of sysop stupidity! It's fixed now, so anyone mining in Europe or that side of the globe, if you notice rejected shares, please use octostratum2.tk:3333.

Meanwhile, the pool at octocoinpool.tk is chugging along nicely, staying steady at 85MH, but we could definitely use more miners! Saturday is our first 25% giveaway and it's not too late to come mine with us for your chance to win! I have added a live webchat link to the site as well, if you have any issues or just want to say hi, you can reach me in there, unless I'm at work or sleeping.

If things keep going the way they've been going, I may get to quit my lousy job at Dollar General soon and be a full time sysop, wouldn't that be nice? The only good thing about that job is hiding the 90% off items so we can buy them for ourselves, haha!

Good luck with that! I always cheer for anyone that can quit a grind job like that to do something they like or love to do. Keep up the good work! When I add my next rig i'm gonna check out your pool.

Interesting - we have confirmed that it runs on Mountain Lion and Mavericks. We built it with support for older versions of OS X but have not tested them. What happens when you attempt to install it?
