If you are going to mine Bitcoin, why wouldn't you choose a merge pool? They can either afford to have lower fees or higher payouts. It makes sense. I am having fun mining at mmpool right now, enjoying my Uno dust. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Exactly! It would be nice to get BTC Guild and Slush's Pool on the $UNO train too!

@ Krypto Superdog: welcome. Feel free to vent; your cause is just. We gotta bust our humps to market ourselves to 'The 99%'
@ Escrowin' the Chinese translations? Whatever makes sense.
@ Community providing tech support: I lack these skills. The fact that I can get help here is greatly appreciated, and I will work hard otherwise to make us all cashmere-helicopter rich us all better people in the eyes of our mums.
@ The A-Team photo: if you ever find yourself within 1100 metres of a cigar-chomper whose gloved trigger-finger is inside the trigger guard of a cocked assault rifle, move swiftly behind the nearest large concrete object, and remain there.

i don't know. probably?
okay, so now i know where unobtanium.conf file goes, but i still don't know what it is. do i just make a blank text file and save it as unobtanium.conf? if so, what exactly do i need put as text? is there something i can copy paste?
can you see how terrible this all is for an "average" user of crypto? I mean, I grew up with computers, I work for a leading tech company, on the internet all day every day...muggles think i'm some tech whiz just for using crypto, so if someone like me is having a hard time figuring this out, then we're completely fucked for "mass" adoption. People are always like "we need to tell our friends and family to get in on this" but this whole shit show is a perfect example of why I am not "spreading the good word," so to speak.
please don't anyone take offense from my ranting, i am just extremely frustrated and need to vent.
I agree with you wholeheartedly. Crypto generally is in no way ready for prime time use or adoption. Yes, you can make it work, but for the "average Joe" right now I just don't see it. Realistically android/i device and other mobile wallets are much easier to understand and adopt. Providing a .conf file ready to download with short explanation where to put it on the website maybe no problem? I grabbed 0.10 client peers from the Chainz explorer and put them into a sample Unobtanium.conf file. You can download the Unobtanium.conf file from Unobtanium.uno. Choose whether you want the .conf (text) or .zip file, and download it to your desktop. http://unobtanium.uno/download/Unobtanium.confhttp://unobtanium.uno/download/Unobtanium.conf.zipEdit this file with any text editor, taking care that it is saved as a .conf file, and not renamed to a .txt file. Change the Username and Password. The rest you can leave as it is. Before proceeding, close your Uno wallet client. Now we have to put the Unobtanium.conf file in the Unobtanium roaming data folder, where the wallet will find it. Here's how to do that: In MS Windows, press Windows+R to bring up the Run menu. Type in %AppData% and then click/press Ok. Like This.... ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FHeQpMOk.png&t=665&c=HWRXVB-lD6wDoA) A file folder will open. Scroll down until you see the Unobanium folder, and then click on it. You should now see the contents of this folder, including your wallet.dat file. Don't delete anything in this folder. Now find your Unobtanium.conf file on your desktop, and drag it into this folder. Restart your wallet. You're good to go. ---- This is for Windows. Sadly, I can't tell you how to do this on Mac or Linuxs. Perhaps someone else will step up and write it. You can use the same Unobtanium.conf file for Win/Mac/Linux. thank you so much for the detailed response. do i just make up anything for username and password? when is this used and for what?

I had a quick wallet question.
When we download the new Beta Windows wallet, it is in zip format.
I unzip it and there is only the QT.exe file.
Do I need to copy the QT.exe file into the directory of the "old" wallet to over-write the former QT.exe? Or, just leave it in it's own directory by itself?
Thanks!
When I downloaded it some days ago, the zip file contained only one file "unobtanium-qt_0.10beta.exe". Since it had a different name than the old executable ("unobtanium-qt.exe"), I just dropped it in the same folder. I then updated the shortcut which used to point to the old one. To do this, right-click on the shortcut, Properties, and put this in the "Target" text box: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Unobtanium\unobtanium-qt_0.10beta.exe"
Worked like a charm (the first time, it did an automatic reindex). Everything else is still the way it was, same folders same everything. It just has that new beta wallet executable in it, which is what I run. No uninstalling, no anything.

I downloaded the mac wallet. its works, but is taking FOREVER to d/l the blockchain with only 1 active connection to the Unobtanium network.
I know blah blah blah addnodes unobtanium.conf file.....i have no idea what any of this means or how to do what you were going to tell me to do. can someone tell me exactly how to make this happen?
where the hell is bryce? did he totally just bail on creating wallets for us? I understand that he doesn't necessarily "owe" us anything but why would he make a fork happen, tell us new wallets are coming, and then just flake? at least if he said "i'm not going to make any wallets" we could have figured this out on time ourselves. meanwhile he's flapping his gums to anyone who'll listen about how Unobtanium is "his" coin and implying its so great because of him.
Bryce, I think i'd rather have Bill Buckner on my team in a clutch moment than you.
I'll try to put in some hardcode node for the OSX build next time. BTW, we might have 2 flavor of UNO android wallet, there is one I have been working on since months ago, Unobtaniumj need some rework for MM but it seems HashEngineering's version should do it https://github.com/HashEngineering/unobtaniumj/commits?author=HashEngineeringI am quite busy with work and everything so don't count on me release it anytime soon. Cheers!

If you are going to mine Bitcoin, why wouldn't you choose a merge pool? They can either afford to have lower fees or higher payouts. It makes sense. I am having fun mining at mmpool right now, enjoying my Uno dust. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Exactly! It would be nice to get BTC Guild and Slush's Pool on the $UNO train too! Sure, more pools would be great. We'll get there. Lets try to help Xpool get up and running first, though. Uno is about to lose it's support from Xpool because of a crashing daemon. I'm not able to resolve it. They compile the daemon but after a few hours it crashes. Bryce thought maybe they needed to update pre-reqs to bitcoin 0.1, but that answer didn't sem to help. If you can help, please head over to Cryptocointalk and assist Cracker. https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/1418-unobtanium-uno-information/?p=182706Thanks,

@MMpoolTime for an update: D=500 worked very well for 2 and 3 S5. D=750 worked very well for 2 and 3 S5. D=1000 worked very well for 2, 3, and 4 S5. Tried D=1250 and D=1500 for 5 S5, but it was back to reject problems. This is a huge improvement over what I saw before. Think we can get to 5 or even 6 S5? @MMpool
Is there any prospect for my being able to connect more than one Antminer S5 to your pool? I've had to shut down four of the six S3 (getting too warm in here) and would really like to redirect another three S5. What is necessary in order to accomplish this? If you need to observe server behavior with them, then let's arrange for that!
Thanks -- Trevor
PS. After over two days of uninterrupted mining on MMpool, the single S5 reports an A/R ratio of 612, so it's not an inherent miner problem. Why do the A/R ratios collapse with more than one S5 connected to your pool? Would really like to solve this problem! How about you?
I don't know why this problem is happening for you and yes, I would like to work out what the issue is. Here's some things to look at or try: 1) Are you using ipv4 or ipv6? 2) what is the exact command line you are using for the miner? 3) Are all the miners mining under the same account? 4) if (3) is true, are the set to the difficulty level for the combined value of all the miners, or just for each individual miner output. 5) if they are set to the difficulty level of the individual miners, try setting the difficulty level for all the miners such that it is right for the combined hash total of all the miners. ie. if the total hash rate for all miners is 10 Th/s then set the difficulty for all the miners to "d=2500". Hi, sorry I missed your post, would love to work with you on this. 1) I'm using ipv4 for everything still. 2) The S3 and S5 miners include CGminer internal to them (have their own controllers), so all I do is enter configuration parameters into the provided fields via a PC browser. The current configuration parameters are identical for both types of miner except for the difficulty parameter: S3: url: stratum+tcp://mmpool.org:3333 usr:<pool user ID> psw: d=256 S5: url: stratum+tcp://mmpool.org:3333 usr: <pool user ID> psw: d=512 3) All miners (S3 and S5) are under the same account. 4) Difficulty value is set for the individual miner. (2,4,6 S3; 1-4 S5) S3s don't exhibit this problem, only the S5s. 5) OK, so if I shut down the last two S3, then two S5 should be ~2TH which I gather would be "d=500". I can tell you that my previous tries with two S5 and "d=512" didn't work, but I'll try 500. EDIT: Test is underway with two S5 and "d=500". Thanks again! ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Am I to understand that it is now safe for a Mac fanboy non-techie like myself to download this new Mac wallet? I have an uncomfortable amount of UNO sitting on Cryptsy (>1 ton).
China Update:
I have heard from Daniel Hu. He is NOT overly excited about our project, saying he has too much work in his day-job now.
PRIMARY TRANSLATION He said he can translate our webpage and Bitcoin Talk page. He mentioned 1-3 hours for the Bitcointalk page and since the webpage is probably much the same size, twice that. So well within the primary (60 UNO) budget. I believe he will probably want to be paid in BTC at .1 BTC an hour, which is higher than his $15/hour stated rate on upwork.com. To be negotiated if we decide to move forward.
PROMOTION and LISTING He is not too hot about following up, running social media, and states that it's "really hard to get things listed on btc38".
So we can get good translations done. Possibly SEO enhancement. But we still need to identify someone who can:
1. Translate our Twitter feed and post to Weibo on the fly 2. Take self starter initiative to explore and exploit other Chinese crypto social media and press to get people to our Chinese language info...and hopefully start chattering on BTCTalk in Chinese... 3. Have the faith and courage to shoot for a listing on btc38 and others.
What say we?
Can I have some comments at this point?
A. Shall I proceed to engage Daniel for the translation and continue the search for a marketer? B. Shall I leave Daniel in peace and seek out someone who will take the whole job a-z? C. Shall we cancel the whole effort and save our UNO?
Please vote for Plan A, B or C over the next 24 hours. Everyone gets one vote.
These people, who pledged to the primary translation fund, gets one ADDITIONAL vote for every 5 UNO pledged, because it is their UNO we will be spending:
Pledges to China Invasion Fund COMPLETE. 60 Kilos of UNO

Is there an address to send the pledges to? And bravo for cragv protesting the championing of prostitution on this thread! I'm ashamed I didn't do it immediately. Me back in 12 hours. Hi IMZ, These are pledges for the moment. No need to send funds anywhere until expenses have been incurred. Falling Knife or you can collect the funds when it is time. The Primary Translation fund, the money to be used to pay an actual invoice from the Translator was 60 UNOs, or about $150. Since that is the money we are talking about spending now, thought it fair to give the guys who's money that is a stronger voice in this decision. The 157 UNOs is the BOUNTY to be paid to a Chinese translator/marketer who undertakes to promote UNO in China and get us listed on 1 or two exchanges there. This fund is a success fee only, payable upon the day trading of UNO begins on an exchange in China. Half on the first exchange. Second half on listing day on second exchange. The Tramslation fund is a sunk cost, whether we get listed or not. A lot of risk there because we may pay that money out, and never get listed. Those guys stepped up and funded. They, in my mind, get a proportionally larger voice in the decision. The second, larger fund is only payable upon success--you will get what you paid for. 100% certainty of return on your pledge. Is that clear now? Cheers, Gekko
