[ANN] Mjollnircoin - MNR - Ultra-secure, Fast Transactions & ASIC resistant

[reorder]

Well we could only assume we might have a working pool without the actual source code and/or a miner beforehand
but curious and smart folks could probably find what they are looking for now. 

But the code is published for review several posts ago, isn't it? I have a confirmation that parts important for mining won't change before release

Reading that back, our own post sounds confusing  , we have already looked at the code and intend to support Mjollnircoin with a pool but would rather not advertize such until we are certain that it's functional (the assume part) the pool is already prepared and waiting for launch.

We will have a link once it's "officially" open but folks could easily find it now if they looked for it 

[cayars]

Yes, that's much clearer in intention.

It would be nice for mjollnircoin to be able to update the op message under the pool section.  Would it be ok to add?

Then once up and running the "planned" could be removed or changed to "operational" or similar.

But this way anyone following MNR can see progress being made.  Lots of people don't like to solo mine so having at least one pool on the list is good stuff.

I'd rather suggest focusing on a webwallet now. To avoid 5-10 pages of 'my wallet won't sync' messages in this thread on the start.

Hmm, without a local wallet you can't solo mine. If you can't solo mine then you need a pool(s).

Chicken and Egg, or am I missing something?

Yes, pools will be there of course (and yes, I have everything ready at this moment). Just it is not mining that brings value to a coin.

I really haven't followed online web wallets to much as the thought of my coins being in someone else's control doesn't sit well with me.  IE Mt Gox, etc.
Even when using exchanges, I usually quickly move any coins back to my own local wallets after the transactions are complete.

Not to derail the thread, but are a lot of people still using web wallets (I'm pretty ignorant on this subject)?

In most cases web/lightweight wallets do not host your coin, rather they provide access to the blockchain. Quite a lot of people are using them, in Bitcoin it is even the majority of users.

In order to actually take possession or to spend/trade coins do you still have to have a local wallet?

Any good example web wallets for BTC or any other coins you could point me to? Love to check it out.

You only need private keys for your addresses (or a unique secrets they are generated from) stored/remembered locally. The most prominent example is blockchain.info . There are also electrum/armory/mobile wallets etc.

Edit: I have posted a site for another coin initially

It is not started yet, the launch is on May 3rd

Coin is launching in 3 Days, 3 Hours from right now.  See http://brokkir.github.io/mjollnircoin/index.html for the countdown timer.

The pools aren't mentioned in the OP message but it appears these will be ready at launch.  This was just discussed a few messages up from this one.  There are pool operators active in this thread so we are in good shape.

The wallets are going to be available prior to launch for you to download and have on hand.  You will just need a password to unlock/unzip the the file.  This password won't be given out until launch time.

Everything seems to going pretty smoothly so far leading up to the launch.

I thought you were talking about something closer to this: https://blockchain.info/wallet

The name seems unpronouncable. Anyway, good luck with your project!

From earlier in the thread:

I dunno what you're talking about!  Here's a guide:

Great news even if it is unofficial at this time. It would be nice to know if ccminer will be tweaked for MNR and ready for launch but still no word....

It would be safe to add, we have tested the pool with the provided cpu-miner and don't anticipate any issues.

Excellent job everyone and Thanks! So far, it seems to be looking good in preparing for the release,
Let me know if there could be anything wrong, otherwise I'd like to add you (Reorder and Nonce) to the Pool list in the OP.

The building of the binaries for the various platforms is nearly finished, they will be released (later today) protected by a password; I'll be using gpg and 7zip to encrypt the files and you will be able to decrypt them using Mjollnir's Genesis Block hash

Also, the cpu miner was modified to mine exactly one block; This block will be mined shortly before the release so the release of MNR funds can start as soon as possible

More later!

mjollnircoin, Next time you edit the OP message could you change
"None available" to "Coming Soon" in sections like the Exchanges?

Essentially means the same thing but has a better "tone". It won't take long after the coin launches that we'll get some exchanges on board.
