[ANN][0.8.6] Hirocoin - X11 - NGW - Secured Blockchain - Time Warp Limitation

[sammy007]

For everyone bothering about instamine, I almost mined from the start and mined 12K HIC with 15xR290 290 GPUs, not a big problem. Now I mining @ parsonal 2,4MH and I am happy, I believe there is no dumping again, people just dumped because of loss of faith in an altcoin. I believe this is new BC actually. And yeah, dev why not add PoS? I don't call it's instamine actually, just a wrong word I posted.

I have started mining HIRO for 2 days now.
I have to say that it is magical compared to scrypt.
Temps have gone down by 15C.
Electricity consumption is about half.
Hashrate is more than x3.
I use an Asus R9 290X 4GD5 and get 2.732 Mh/s with rejects between 0.6% and 0.9%.
X11 is most definitely the current best option.
Good luck to all.

Hey, what settings are you using? I have an r9 and can only get 2.35 out of it so far

Welcome, and thanks for the feedback !

Strange to see droping so heavily..
Probably problem is, that crowds cant set up their cards accordingly and mining gurus, who can only look after daily profitability.. and if at HIC is lower, then they just move away, sell their coins and drop the price.. and regular ppl who would like to mine dont know how to mine so price remains low..

X11 is most definitely the current best option.

True, but only for mining for minings sake.

I joined a few days ago when it was 3000+ satoshi. Profitable, and 50% the power. A miracle.

But now its 1500 satoshi and only pays for the power it consumes! So why mine? This is a great coin, but what's the point if there's no profit? Magic internet points?

I guess this is the problem across all coins at the moment. People are turning off their rigs. How to put a stop to this??

Until the price of coins goes back up, more and more miners will stop. The miners that do leave their rigs on will benefit though as the diffs will come down. I Don't rally turn my miners off and have been mining this coin for 3 days now, loving it!

[gloryninja]

The price will go up soon, you can count on it.

Not sure if it's true, but it is good to hear nonetheless

I understand now what people are saying about a botnet. Must read properly. It is not a botnet but due to a stratum exploit it is possible to submit lots more shares than possible by setting the difficulty low localy. Pools can patch against this so these shares are not paid out. Until we get confirmation that ForkPool has closed the exploit people should not mine on there. I removed ForkPool from the list of pool on the front page a couple of days ago.

[ocminer]

Suprnova Pool here:

https://hiro.suprnova.cc

Currently no fee with Vdiff + Stratum
Idle Worker Notifs, DDoS protected/Load balanced and all the goodies you need.

Get your Hiro's !


Folks please dont forget to withdraw your coins.. A pool is not a bank Thanks !

Stupidly sent some Hirocoin to a f***ing Huntercoin address by mistake.

Can I create a new Hirocoin address of my choosing or are they always random?

Id like to create a new Hirocoin address with the same address as the Huntercoin address I accidentally sent to.

It is not wise to get in Mintpal, it is a shit dumping exchange website.

The answer is basically no. For bitcoin, the chances of generating an address that has a balance is 1-e**(-((21*10**14)**2)/(2*(2**256))), which is such an infinitesimally small chance that there's really no point trying. Hirocoin has a much higher max coin limit too as I understand so the chance would be even less...

The security issue here is if you can generate an address that's the same as one that you've sent to, you could basically hijack absolutely anybody's account - that was taken into consideration before even the initial release of Bitcoin.

This really is something that should be dealt with by devs - they can't all use the same 26 address sets, by just changing the PUBKEY_ADDRESS in the code... They need to validate the address hash against more than just that in the wallet.

Either that or they have to say screw anyone who pastes the wrong address in there. Something has to give sooner or later - the number of coins out there is at critical mass, and with scrypt ASICs coming out I see many of them dying a quick, but nevertheless extremely painful death.

Apparently warrens understanding of algorithms is not necessarily up there.

"A mere mishmash of 11 algorithms". Scrypt is also an algorithm. One.

It would be extremely costly to build a x11 ASIC.  Absolutely and definitely possible, but costly. So hirocoin would need to have a lot of success before a x11 ASIC is being developed. And quite honesrly, if we reach the point of ASIC being worth it for hirocoin, I would call that a total success.

The only part that seems true is the fact that when ASICs would be built, it would (obviously) not be bottlenecked like GPUs currently are (the reason why you see so much less power draw). But it's hard to say at this point how efficient they would be nonetheless. Maybe even using the maximum resources it would be slow for an ASIC.

Other than that, I totally agree that it would be so bad for litecoin to fork for a new algorithm. It would be so so bad. So that is good news for us. I just didn't really find the uninformed bashing of other algorithm to be worth much.
