[ANNOUNCEMENT] Hawaiicoin - A Slice of Paradise

[worth]

Why I can't withdraw my coins from http://pool.privanon.com/hic/ ?
I can just change my account or change the pass, I can't do a manual payout and I set the auto-payout ... but I was not triggered after 2h

Are they confirmed? The coins are slow to confirm right now but I've spoken with the dev and confirmation should be speeding up soon.

This coin has been flying under the radar so people haven't started mining it much yet, which causes the whole network to be a little slow.
Things will speed up the more people mine, and there's an update coming as well which should further improve things.

Worth, thanks for your updating everyone.  Just to confirm, Privanon Pool just moved confirmations down to a more appropriate level considering the low hash rate on the network at diff=4.  You should see coins being confirmed soon.

Happy to help out.  Confirmation is definitely happening now and I've had the majority of what I've mined over the last few days successfully sent to my wallet with the rest paying out normally.

the network is down ?

Wallet don't sync, and my miners are idle because of a lack of pool.

And my coins on the pools are confirmed but never sent to the wallet even if the autopayout rule is set

my problem exactly,,seriously fix the wallet, fix the official pool payout, and fix cashing out it don't work,,

i smell and feel scam , but ill be open minded today and give the benefit of the doubt if an explanation is made. it's like the dev(s) are oblivious to these issues.

The main pool, privanon, had a memcached problem and had to be rebooted.  It is up now, and the stratum is working.  Because it is the main pool processing most of the hash rate on the network it being down was the cause of the wallet delays.  Pool still has a problem with the login/web interface for the pool and they are working on it.

For now, recommend miners switch to another pool (incubus; iminecoins) while privanon sorts out the issues (they have already set confirms down to 10 and payouts are working; stratum working but you won't be able to log into web to check/manual cash out.  Auto payouts ok).

And in response to the notion of a "scam"... we have been throwing 6 MHs at the network the past few days when the total hash rate was only 8MHs (thanks to those who threw another 2MHs) so our team has been instrumental in keeping the network up while diff remains at 4.  Please be cognizant of those who pay the bills to keep this thing going as other "opportunists" flash mine only when diff is low.  Even with that in mind, we are rolling out a wallet update soon to readjust diff to 1 block, thus attracting the flash miners.  And our team who has been keeping this net up will have been forgotten...so I'm happy to ink their commitment on this board with this posting.

Nevertheless, we push forward!

Block processed on network.  Transactions went through.  View block here: pool.privanon.com:8080/block/bc8e4fae00a8b33b5704d29c4c7f53c21109156272dbc64075dffa509fa410e2

Again, the lower diff rollout will help with synch issues and delayed transaction processing and we will also help other pool operators in gaining miner share...all part of a heart-healthy breakfast!

Let's try, I switch on the p2pool for the night.
4.4Mh/s for 8 hours ... let's see if the coin survive and the wallet resync or if  I loose some electricity and time

Show me some support I you can

FYI, the Privanon website is down, but the pool is still accepting work and I have been receiving payouts to my wallet.

[hawaiicoin]

yeah that pool seems always to have problems,even after they announced block explorer is online ,when i checked it didnt work.

when u wanna mine come to my p2pool node

noone is gonna hold ur coins nothing unconfirmed as soon as we found a block u get paid

http://5.45.108.127

just klick hawaiicoin stats

to connect ur miner address is http://5.45.108.127:7743

worker name is ur hawaiicoinaddress and password u can choose anything u like ,it doesnt matter

i have 1% fee

Nice work LtPaxIV!!!  See some MHs on your pool.  Now this is the community I knew was out there.  You folks pulled it together like this.  As worth said Privanon is still working on stratum and payout crons still good, just issue with PHP it seems...perhaps a bad php library update overnight.  Nevertheless there should always be more than one pool option anyways.

Everyone,

According to Privanon, the problem was found.  The pool brought down the #confirmations for quicker payout to users (from 120 to 10) but the HIC daemon is set at 120.  So Privanon was using its own funds to pay out users quickly.  Because of this, we will work on an update to the wallet to change confirmations on the daemon and wallet to 10 vs. 120 confirmations.  This will be required so that pools can continue to thrive while users get paid quickly.  Please continue to use the P2Pool for now...it seems to be doing well.

Privanon pool is starting back up.

All,

The privanon pool is back online again, but the confirmations has been set back to 120 to avoid diluting the pool's wallet by paying out users in advance.  In summary, if the pool pays out in less than 120 confirms, it's similar to the pool giving the miners a loan/advance payment and the pool has to wait the 120 blocks to get the coins back to "spendable" status.

Great job!  Hey Lt.  The diff level and other numbers look off.  Do you need the magic # and things for this coin?  Here they are (These are required for the blockchain explorer to work right too).


Address Version:  x00

Magic Numbers:  x7cx1fx91x84

Also, can you post the IP/Port of the pool again for everyone else.  If it's still the 5.x.x.x IP then that's the one I sent to p2pools.org web admin to add to the main list for HIC p2pools.

As a side note:  Everyone should be aware of the differences of mining with a pool and p2pool.  Pros and Cons on each.  No matter what, someone will have to take the hit of waiting 120 confirmations (blocks) before the coins MATURE and can be used.  In a pool, the pool can "front" you the coins with less confirmations and take the burden on (as Privanon did) and you'll see coins come into your wallet matured.  With a P2Pool you will get the coins sent directly to your wallet after finding a block with others, and it will show it as being mined and you'll have to wait the 120 blocks (your wallet will provide you a status in the TRANSACTIONS area).  Like I said, pros and cons to each.  I was confused at first when switching between a P2Pool and Regular Pool, and wanted to make sure everyone understood the mechanics behind the two.

Quick lesson on waiting to mature the blocks:  This is so that if there ever is a problem with the coin's blockchain (this is serious by the way), pools and exchanges have time to consult with each other and remediate the issues before the new blocks are matured and used on the network.  If a fork occurred, the correct chain can be decided on and the hope is that this is done before the 120th block after the fork occurred.

I got more than 15% reject on p2pool node. So I switch on privanon but the pool is not reliable, my miner get disconnected.

I continue the test for 2-3h, but I'm considering to leave this coin because of lack of support and reliable pool

[LtPaxIV]

my node is on p2pools.org 1-2 weeks already

 p2pool node

as soon as we found a block u get paid,but as hawaiicoin said u have to wait till u can actually spend the coins

just klick hawaiicoin stats

to connect ur miner address is http://5.45.108.127:7743

worker name is ur hawaiicoinaddress and password u can choose anything u like ,it doesnt matter

if someone wants to setup a own node(as im located in germany) just hit me up and i´ll give the networks.py settings,as i still havent figured how to use the github thingy

yeah i saw that,u know that u have to use other settings for mining p2pool? for me i cant put my gpu´s on full speed because then i get lots rejects,also depends where u located in relation to the node because of the ping,in cgminer i also changed stuff like scan time,queue,so im running at 1-3% rejects
