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

[Not_WEB]

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"
}

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?

My slimcoin.conf is:
addnode=76.127.202.17
addnode=96.237.174.192
addnode=107.181.250.216
addnode=107.181.250.217
server=1
gen=0
listen=1
daemon=1
rpcuser=xxx
rpcpassword=xxx
rpcallowip=*
rpcport=41683

  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......

   Anybody ?

[TheRealSteve]

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

First post?
( It's not 64-bit specific, but 32-bit will run just fine. )

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

Try adding all the nodes mentioned in this thread, you probably just need to sync up.

[TheRealSteve]

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

I don't think it works that way.

[slimcoin]

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)?

You do not need to run setgenerate true to mine PoB. In order to mine PoB, just burn coins and the client will start automatically. If you turn off and then turn on the client, the client will automatically start PoB mining on the old coins. If your client is off, it will not be mining PoB, the client has to be on.

Well how many are created (at current diff) in 24h ?

ok, so that does mean, I should not mine on the same system where the wallet is? Because the CPU is already @ 100% because of the slimminer.

[slimcoin]

Yes, that is fine, the hashespersec is the counter for the internal miner in the client.

No, PoB mining is so un-intensive that there will be no problems.

If the wallet is encrypted does PoB minting function without walletpassphrase ? i.e. is it only necessary to unlock the wallet for PoS minting ?

alright, thanks a lot for clarification!

Nope, nothing there leads to a compiled windows miner. website is the same.
Do I really have to find a way to compile from source? the only place where this miner seems to exist is the source code in github 

Thanks for the help, anyway.

Thanks, the german nodes did the trick

Does the wallet have to be unlocked for this?

Would it work on linux with slimcoind?

Thanks!

Dev is purposely avoiding serious questions, what a loser.

I've had one out of 3 wallets compromised due to inability to mine PoW when encrypted. Why would you not allow a wallet to mine when encrypted, so stupid.

Does slimcoind.exe with the -gen parameter not work?

About PoB i don't know, but for PoS a wallet has to be unlocked to mine. I would think it's the same for PoB, but i can't say for sure.

Don't want to mine with wallet ... or in the machine where the wallet is running, for that matter.
Isn't this a minerd fork/adaptation to mine slimcoin? https://github.com/slimcoin/slimminer That's the one I want/need, to use on other machines I have on the network ... that run windows

wft am I missing here? feel really dumb on this one

[qiuxiang]

Burnt 250 coins yesterday, already 24 hours, still no luck finding PoB.
Guess it is not profitable for PoB?

Was your client unlocked, synced and running ?

I believe so
