addnode=seed1.vivuscoin.com and
addnode=seed2.vivuscoin.com to vivuscoin.conf.
Mining (solo stratum)Any SHA-256d stratum miner works. Your VVC address is the username; the block reward pays that address directly. No account, no pool balance, no fee, nothing to withdraw.
URL: stratum+tcp://pool.vivuscoin.com:3333
Username: your VVC address (A…)
Password: x
cpuminer -a sha256d -o stratum+tcp://pool.vivuscoin.com:3333 -u <YOUR_VVC_ADDRESS> -p x
cgminer -o stratum+tcp://pool.vivuscoin.com:3333 -u <YOUR_VVC_ADDRESS> -p x
bfgminer -o stratum+tcp://pool.vivuscoin.com:3333 -u <YOUR_VVC_ADDRESS> -p x
A CPU tests the connection; a single GPU (1–3 GH/s) is a meaningful share of the network; an ASIC is far more than the network needs and difficulty rises to meet it within blocks. Rewards mature after 100 blocks (about 6 h 40 min). Full guide:
vivuscoin.com/mining/Airdrop — phase 1Register a VVC address at
vivuscoin.com/airdrop/. 500 VVC for each of the first 1,000 registered addresses, then 50 VVC. Phase 1 is 2,000,000 VVC, one claim per address, at most 200 claims a day, paid in daily batches. Every batch is listed on that page by transaction id.
No tasks, no referrals, no KYC. Claims happen on the website only — please do not post addresses in this thread. Node runners (1,000 VVC per month of verified uptime) and merged contributions (500–5,000 VVC) are paid from the same programme; details on the airdrop page.
