Hi, guys!
It's two weeks since I've started mining Bytecoin (BCN).
Now I mine on my PC (Intel Core  i7-920 Processor) that gives me 9H/s solo mining.
Current diff is ~526 000.
I mean Bytecoin diff - an "integer value, which informally represents an average amount of work (number of hashes calculated)
one needs to perform in order to create the current block." https://wiki.bytecoin.org/wiki/Difficulty

Exchange rate is 0.2 uBTC (according to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=531925.0)
So my solo-mining revenue is 0.258 BTC in a week.
I should say it's pretty good result!

I also mine via VPS (2.13 H/s) that gives me 2 blocks -> 0.05 BTC per week. Yes, now it doesn't cover my VPS expences, but I hope one day I will do twice current BTC.

What's your mining power and revenue?

0.258 BTC/week is like Litecoin GPU farm giving 8800kh/s (i.e. 10-14 high-end GPU).



The only difference is that no GPU is required. Cool story, bro.

Interesting, maybe I could try get GPU and CPU mining going at the same time. Is there a list of CPU speeds etc?

You're not able to start Bytecoin mining with GPU... or did you meant you're currently mining something with GPU and just going to load your PC with CPU mining as well?

When I started mining a few weeks ago I was averaging about 100k/day (4.5 H/s). Right now I'm getting around 35k/day.

It is CPU Only

Can you give a break down of how you were able to get it functional on VPS. I was plagued with error after error on Ubunut. Tried multiple images and ram packages.

it's time to film a movie "Difficulty rises" bytecoin version. 800k+ atm.

with difficulty recalculating every 2 minutes it's easy to assemble a gambling site with "Guess the difficulty" game. Smiley

tired of identical bitcoin forks? try out BCN - no ASICs, no transaction tracking https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=512747.0

That's actually a valuable idea. I remember a Bitcoin game "Guess the exchange rate" based on the same concept.

hm. then this type of gambling won't take long to establish. maybe there are some good-to-go website decision.
