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

[Karma.ITM]

Is this -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=55038.0 the right miner for this coin? (because it's complains of a json error)

No, Slimcoin uses the Dcrypt algorithm which is different, here is the CPU miner for Slimcoin: https://github.com/slimcoin/slimminer

Thanks for the reply Slimcoin, is there is binary release I can grab? I don't see one on the release tab at GitHub.

POB  300  no block  24h    Broken egg

i've been mining this with 2 computers for 24 hours now to no avail,guess you're out of this unless you own a botnet

What exactly do you mean?

[chiguireitor]

What hashrates are you guys getting while mining PoW? Just curious.

2.7 KH/s with an AMD APU 3850 with Ubuntu Linux 64 Bit... 500 H/s with the same computer with Windows 7 64 bits.

EDIT: Removed the stupid "K" on the windows hashrate

Haha, it is a joke, right?

Patience... solo mining is unforgiving and makes oneself nervous because you don't see the constant stream of coins. I've been mining with just 1 computer and have hit a nice lot of PoW blocks already. Keep mining.

Thanks for the info anyways. Btw could you share some peer info. I have added the nodes from the OP but after 30min my wallet still can't connect
"WARNING: Checkpoint is too old. Wait for block chain to download, or notify developers of the issue."

Perfect. It begins to sync already after I add 2 nodes from Germany.
Thanks.

PS: Btw could you tell at which block are we now? One of my client stops to sync at block 2028 and another at block 1600.

I have 3 comps and I want to mine from all computers to one wallet. Is that possible with https://github.com/slimcoin/slimminer?

Yes it is, you have to edit the config file to look something like:

The url is the local ip address of the computer you want to mine to. And on the wallet you have to start it up with -rpcallowip="*", or type the ip addresses allowable instead of the star.

Code:

{
	"url" : "192.168.xxx.xxx:41683",
	"user" : "user",
	"pass" : "pass",

	"algo" : "dcrypt",
	"threads" : "8"
}

again my question: Do all miners pointed to that wallet have a chance of finding the PoB block? Or is it essential that the wallet does the mining in order to find a PoB block? (setgenerate true)?

[glop]

  I want to mine only with POB, how to do that?

  Do I have to turn setgenerate to true because if I do that I am still POW mining and I do not want to spend CPU power on that one......

sempron (not sure on model but old laptop) ubuntu 12.04 - ~450hps

I'm having some problems. I downloaded the linux wallet, and I doesn't open. I don't know why. So I tried downloading the source and compiling. I added the 6 nodes in slimcoin.conf, and this time the wallet opens, but it only gets the first 624 blocks. Then it doens't sync anymore :/. What can I do?

Those German nodes were sorely needed.  Thanks!

p2pool is working on testnet now but it requires some changes to slimcoin and a hardfork is needed.

1. The last coinbase transaction in p2pool is always a 0 value transaction. Minimum transaction value in slimcoin is currently 0.01 SLM.

2. Do not the check signature for PoW blocks in CBlock::CheckBlock().

This has already been fixed in Novacoin.

Can we tell which PoB block we are on ? PoB block height

[SlientBit]

Didn't felt so noob in a long time  

Where can I get a compiled/binary windows x64 version of a working miner for this coin?

Why does the wallet say the checkpoint is to old? Is there an updated wallet that's not in the OP?

Thanks in advance

}

SlimMIner working ok, I have cca 1khs per computer,but in wallet i get:
{
"blocks" : 2666,
"currentblocksize" : 1000,
"currentblocktx" : 0,
"difficulty" : 0.06898813,
"errors" : "",
"generate" : false,
"genproclimit" : -1,
"hashespersec" : 0,
"networkghps" : 0.00237041,
"pooledtx" : 0,
"testnet" : false
}

is that normal that my hashespersec is zero?
