[ANN] Slimcoin : Proof of Burn NEW BLOCK GEN, Mineable by low power computer!

[TheRealSteve]

tried this and w'ont work:

Might want to edit out your address there - but uhm... no error message?  try opening a console window and just running "minerd.exe".. see if it complains about not wanting to run at all, about something missing, or... anything else.

pool working great, good job! just tested mining with an old raspberry pi 512MB: 0.07khash

PoB "blows you a Raspberry" in celebration ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3dqxZo_myyA

I know I have an odd sense of humor.  

wow...that vid was weired Oo

I dont have error message,
If I run minerd.exe i get minerd: no URL supplied

Oh good.. then at least it does run at its most basic.
Try just entering:

Code:

minerd.exe -a dcrypt -o stratum+tcp://63.141.232.170:3333 -u Syouraddress -p x

[Stormbringer]

tried, still the same. I am on win 8.1x64,
I mined with previous slimminer couple of days ago, it worked fine on the same machine

Yeah, weird.  Should have started out something like:

Code:

Your Slimcoin address? (S....) : Sxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
How many threads should we use? (1 .. number of cores) : 8
[2014-06-05 02:07:31] Starting Stratum on stratum+tcp://63.141.232.170:3333
[2014-06-05 02:07:31] Binding thread 0 to cpu 0
[2014-06-05 02:07:31] Binding thread 1 to cpu 1
etc.

Oh well, wait for an alternate build

Pool is up - http://63.141.232.170 (stratum+tcp://63.141.232.170:3333)
I am working on setting up the domain name, slimcoinpool.com
Make sure that you have compiled from the latest commit, or you will get low difficulty rejects.
Shares from the temp pool are carried over, the stats are not displayed until you start mining however.
Payments are automatically processed every minute, it may take a long time to receive block reward because it needs a high number of confirmations.

need your help . i use the miner download from https://mega.co.nz/#!PJUFQT7Q!vWj165czV6LnIUZiD9OIZuKoEGcVSZ_OMQ0Bc8SDUKQ
win8.1 .it dispeared in your pool as all invalid shares.is there  someting wrong with the miner.

Has anyone tried to implement the rpcthreads option? I think the pool is really in need of that, the daemon lags like hell on dual e5-2670v2

Don't think so yet. Will this prevent the pool from finding blocks ? Have you found a block with the pool in testing ?

[MartinF]

Finally I was able to compile slimminer, but I downloaded the source from the link slimcoin provided. Now, it's working great with the pool. Already ~100 shares. How can I know if I have any balance? And when do I get paid? Thanks!

could you please upload .exe for win?

[MartinF]

could you please upload .exe for win?

Here it is: http://www37.zippyshare.com/v/42180814/file.html

Remember to create a .bat file with the pool address and your wallet address.

[fudge]

thanks!

[yang5034]

Anyone have a binary for win7 or windows? I'd really like to give this a try. I'd be forever grateful and I don't have the space to get all that cygwin business.

You'll have to trust that I didn't do anything funky with it:

Alternative build: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=613213.msg7138442#msg7138442

Inside the ZIP are the executable and the dependencies.  It was originally built for Core i7 with AVX2 extensions, but I think none of the code actually gets optimized for that.. at least a build for Core 2 Duo ended up with the same binary.  Might have missed something though - parallel cygwin installations is a PITA.  It will, however, probably fail on 32bit systems.

There's also a batch file - it only asks you for two things: 1. your Slimcoin address (basically where the pool's payouts should go), and 2. the number of threads to use (considering you may have older hardware, you might want to try limiting CPU use that way).  If unsure, just use the number of cores your CPU has, and it should be all good.

There are other things that you can tweak with the minerd parameters, but this should be good to get you started.  Once up and running, you should see a bunch of output about threads hashing away and the occasional "yay!!!".  If you get a lot of "booooo" instead, something's amiss

Mining at the pool is working OK on Digital Ocean cloud droplets.

Use Promotional Code: SSD2014 or OMGSSD10 and get $10 free for cloud mining !

That's 2 months worth of Slimcoin mining on a single CPU digital ocean cloud droplet.

- Create your first droplet as: 512MB / 1 CPU 20GB SSD Disk 1TB Transfer Monthly 5.00 Hourly 0.007

- The Hostname can be whatever you want. The recommended region is New York, as its closest to the mining pool.

- It's very important to Select Image - Ubuntu 12.04.4 x64 as other versions won't work with this guide.

This is an LTS (Long Term Support) release and so its the best available working option.

- Digital Ocean will then email you your cloud servers IP address, username and password. You can then SSH login using PuTTY on windows.

See: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html

Once logged into your cloud droplet:

Code:

sudo apt-get update

Code:

sudo apt-get install -y build-essential m4 libssl-dev libdb++-dev libboost-all-dev libminiupnpc-dev git automake libcurl4-openssl-dev

Code:

git clone https://github.com/siklon/slimminer

Code:

cd slimminer

Code:

chmod +x autogen.sh

Code:

./autogen.sh

Code:

./configure

Code:

make

Code:

apt-get install screen

Code:

screen

In screen mode hit the Space Bar twice to return to the command prompt.

Now copy and paste this line of text to start cpu mining Slimcoin adding YOUR SLIMCOIN WALLET ADDRESS

Code:

./minerd -a dcrypt -o stratum+tcp://63.141.232.170:3333 -u YOURSLIMCOINWALLETADDRESS -p x --scantime 15 --retries -1 -t 1

DONE - (yay !!!) - your now mining Slimcoin's !


You must use (press and hold) CTRL + A + D to get out of the screen session. Then type exit and press enter to close the terminal, although continue mining Slimcoin's.

...

If you log back in to the terminal type: screen -r and enter to check that your still mining Slimcoin's.

If you need to stop mining Slimcoin's type: sudo killall minerd and press enter.

To restart mining type / repeat only steps:

Code:

cd slimminer

Code:

screen

Code:

./minerd -a dcrypt -o stratum+tcp://63.141.232.170:3333 -u YOURSLIMCOINWALLETADDRESS -p x --scantime 15 --retries -1 -t 1

...

Thanks!

Go figure.  Did you try both builds? (the striked out one, and MartinF's build)  If so, I guess different compiler flags are needed somehow.. but since mine always builds the same binary (or refuses to build in the case of 'Pentium M'), somebody else would have to give that a shot.

Or follow the instructions given by BitcoinFX - installing cygwin and getting it up and running only takes a few minutes.

Edit: Oh, or go cloud mining ^^^^^

it works on Debian also

Pool down! What happened?

[sandor111]

There is an issue with the pool and proof of burn blocks, hereby taking the pool down until I fix this. Sorry for inconvenience.
