I like Dedicated Pools but think the way their PPLNS payouts is configured disadvantages small miners with less hash. The way it's setup when mining on their pool you only get paid a share of the block if you submit shares towards the block found. Since their vardiff will keep you from submitting shares too quickly, if their pool hash is very high you wind up only getting credit for the blocks found at a higher hight and not the easy blocks found by large hash miners. Other PPLNS pools give you a payout for all blocks found by the pool, even when no shares were submitted.

We are using prop so I'm not sure what you're talking about ?


Also, we have set vardiff to 128 so smaller miners can get shares submitted before the next block as well.

So I'm not sure what you're on about here.

I will leave this here though.

I was mining on your pool at launch and saw you posted a notice about limiting the vardiff to 128 in order to allow shares to be submitted more quickly before the next round. The problem is my miner can still go 1.5 minutes+ before submitting shares and with the very high pool hash, I don't get credit for many of the easy blocks found at a lower height. Most of your pools have PPLNS payouts and I have noticed the same issue I mentioned on those pools as well. When I registered for the UNV pool I could of sworn it was PPLNS payouts too.

Thanks Jolly, you've been extremely supportive and we couldn't be more appreciative!

We also sent MP an e-mail last night, and Poloniex has already been contacted.

Also, one of our community members "TrollBoxChamp" has been supporting us in the Poloniex Trollbox, as I was informed last night when I popped in. So TrollBoxChamp, we thank you as well! 

Also guys, we are looking for an experienced Android developer who can build us an Android Wallet that works with PoS. If anyone could please recommend someone, PM us!

Thanks guys!

Hey guys we really want to find an experienced android developer asap so that we can get prepared for the week following PoW. We would like to start contacting independent retailers around our University campuses and teach them about cryptocurrencies, Universitycoin, and why they matter. We will also be convincing them to accept UVC as a means of customer acquisition for their businesses.

This is just a taste of our long-term plans, however getting an experienced android developer to build our wallet is absolutely essential for this plan. If anyone knows of, or sees in other threads, any mention of an experienced android developer, please PM us immediately.

Thank you!

I can vouch for Dedicated pool - used them for lots of coins, including now, and they have alway been reliable.  No pool is perfect and able to protect 100% against attacks and problems, when there have been problems with Dedicated they always sort them ASAP and communication is also good.

Does anybody know if Bittrex support staking in their wallet? I know that Mintpal accept that thing.

What is this "unlock wallet" button in the wallet's front page? Can't press it.

When you encrypt you wallet it's locked, but when it's 'locked' it can't pos mine, so you need to 'unlock' it.

If you've never encrypted your wallet you don't need to 'unlock' it.

Can community come together and help find a solution to the Android POS wallet?  

I will start:

UniversityCoin POS Android Wallet:

Dogecoin Android Wallet on Github

Can we use this base to fork a repository and set it up and wait for developers?  This seems to be most full featured POW open source wallet I could find.  If anyone finds a better codebase to fork from, please reply to this post.  POS implementation is apparently non-trivial as at least three other communities have talked about it.  BlackCoin, MintCoin, and PeerCoin.  Maybe we should pool resources e.g. devs?  

https://github.com/langerhans/dogecoin-wallet-new

UniversityCoin Point of Sale Android QR-Code/UPC-Code Scanner/Wallet:

We will need to assure that if Colleges wish to label their items for sale that they can print out QR Code labels that the vendor can use his own phone to read, and then generate a QR code for the UniversityCoin's Wallet Software to send coins to.  Most will still likely just use their current labels and convert the current price of UniversityCoin to fiat and then charge based on that.    

So we could be the first UPC code scanning wallet for any altcoin (I think), and allowing easy integration into Point of Sale systems at University Campuses would be a major selling point.    



UPC Code Reader codebases.

http://zbar.sourceforge.net/
http://sourceforge.net/projects/zbar/?source=directory  -- Zbar Does QR Code and UPC as well as others.   //  Comes in tons of languages.  

IMHO, these two developments need to be linked and out of the door as soon as possible.

Stage 2: UniversityCoin Printed Ad Campaign on Campuses:

We have technical folks, we have aesthetic folks, we have doers, and we have supporters.  Let's make sure we use all four parts of the community.  

Aesthetic Folks, let's make some posters to raise awareness.  

After we have the posters, an Ad Campaign on University Campuses where we do not currently have ambassadors can be facilitated by existing advertising networks that spefically target colleges.

Stage 3:  Hardware package with a branded Android Compatible Wireless Scanner for UPC

This will allow any university to receive a Wireless scanner screenprinted with UniversityCoin's Logo all over it.  UniversityCoin can leverage this to raise brand awareness as well as being able to have a tactile object emblazoned with professional looking logos and a small list of instructions.  As well as a feeling from the college vendors that we are serious and here to stay.  A branded hardware device is a big step both in terms of the manufacturing/logistics and financial commitments but think about it this way.

UniversirtyCoin Wireless UPC scanners will create demand from brand awareness, and create market volume.

etc I will add more if you guys don't think I'm crazy.

Interesting I thought maybe some flyers might be a good idea. If some people are already on campuses that's 1 place for a few to get handed out.

Maybe we can make a version of the coin logo and have a fun competition posting a photo of it in different famous places. I PMed the coin boss to see what he thinks.
