[RIC] Riecoin status update 2014/03/13

[gatra]

Hi!

News from past week:
- btc38.com added RIC trading http://www.btc38.com/trade.html?btc38_trade_coin_name=ric
- there is a nice block crawler that shows the prime 6-tuples of each block and offers links to verify their primality! http://darmstadt.goxadidi.dk/cgi-bin/block/block_crawler.py/


News for today:
- open source stratum-mining available here: https://github.com/gatra/stratum-mining
I couldn't get a pool online yet for other reasons, but mpos is showing valid shares accepted. The miner that supports solo mining and stratum mining is here:
https://github.com/gatra/cpuminer-rminerd
You'll also need an updated client in order to operate a pool, compile from here: http://github.com/riecoin/riecoin.git
The updated client is only because the "bits" field was missing from the "getblocktemplate" response.
I still have to make an official release with binaries for the miner and the daemon/client.
You'll also need a pool front-end, like mpos.
Once people start testing this, I guess we'll be able to announce that we are the first coin with scientific proof of work that has open source pool software!


Thank you all!

Thanks!  
I'm working on setting up my pool now... It will probably be ready in <10 hours.

Great news !
Please someone can post a windows binarie of the rminer ?

Sweet, I'll look into seeing if I can get the code working for a P2Pool node, if so, I'll post it up on my github so we can have a working P2Pool network.

Thanks again for the hard work Gatra!

looks like a problem in curl and not in the miner, my guess is that you have a mingw installation problem
