[QCN] QuazarCoin | Full anonymity | Privacy&Data protection | Egalitarian PoW

[OracionSeis]

I apologize for the delay in responses to the forum, I was very busy developing.

I'll try to answer everybody today.

[OracionSeis]

nethash is high now.i can barely mine a couple of blocks per day.
is QCN gonna take off soon?

New binaries were supposed to help you.

[drkman]

Maybe thats the wrong place to ask, but whats the difference between Monero, Fantom and Quazar? Pls be a little self critical if I may ask that of you. I know its the early stages for all of those new chains but maybe some differences may exist already, like dev team, community, vision, etc.
Thx

What is the advantage of QCN, compared to BCN and MRO?

QuazarCoin requires 60 confirmations per transaction which enhances the protection against double-spending.
Emission curve is more flutter, 50% QCN will be emitted in 6 years.
Also QCN was launched without premine and instamine.

What is the emission curve of MRO?  What % of MRO is issued in 6 years?

How to know the difficulty / network hashrate ?

Use 'set_log 1' and 'print_bc <begin height block> [<end height block>]' command in the daemon window. For example,

Code:

set_log 1
print_bc 4566

or

Code:

set_log 1
print_bc 1000 1005

I am trying to find out how Quazar crypto coin works and I tried to download Mac OS X wallet, but it did not work for me.

It returns: "./quazarcoind: Operation not permitted".

And if I try to compile wallet from source codes, I get this message:
"-- Build files have been written to: /Users/pavel/Documents/Dev/quazarcoin/build/release cd build/release && /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/make Scanning dependencies of target version fatal: No names found, cannot describe anything.

About your problem:

./quazarcoind: Operation not permitted

This means that you don't have permission to start the daemon.

Before starting the daemon, you must enter the following command in the panel:

chmod +x quazarcoin.d

and then you can launch 'quazarcoind'.

[OracionSeis]

Did you update the link on the first page with the latest binaries?  Because that's what i am using.

Also, "start_mining"  then what?

Can you give a more detailed guide on how you start mining?  Solo or on a pool?  Any examples?

Anyone have the differences/negatives of just using minergate on all your cpus vs solo mining each and pool mining on each one?
Trying to get a feel for how each method is different and the pros and cons.

Yes, all binaries were updated and include a guide file which is named 'Read me'.

You enter the 'start_mining' command in your wallet (in a daemon you must enter 'start_mining <address> [threads=n]') and wait. For example,

Code:

start_mining 1VW5rGPuXkDYVxNvwJd3HdXFK79zMQ2Vsf3rBqYTrRNyjD8MDAtNuG91VSnyjn1D6HVXCs2LPERNMJTGmyNQyytDG7y6mer 5

CPU or pool

You can always produce a block via CPU-mining irrespective of h/r network or difficulty - and you'll receive a lot of QCN, but rarely.

You completely exclude variance if you mine via pools - and you'll receive a little QCN, but constantly. Usually pool takes a percentage.

So this choice is yours.

Which Crypto Note coin would you recommend me to buy and why, please? Thanks.

QuazarCoin is the latest CryptoNote-based currency. QCN was launched without premine and instamine. I'm the QCN dev and I very actively work on usability optimization. + QCN has a flatter emission curve.

[OracionSeis]

Do not use
wallet ?? How to mining

What OS do you use? What problems do you have?

More info, please. All binaries include a guide file which is named 'Read me'.

I dont get it. 60 confirms per transaction?? That sounds like a huge disadvantage. That means I gotta wait 60x2mins= 2hours!! before I can spend my Quazars? I know this has been broad up before but I still dont fully understand. Pls explain. thx

I already answered on these questions - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=615732.msg6853775;topicseen#msg6853775. Allow me to quote myself:

So, we need 2 hours to get coins from transactions? 
And I want to ask you have another plan to distinguish this coin from other cytonote coins

No, you aren't right. The time depends on a size of a transaction. For example, yesterday I received 10,000 QCN for 1 hour.

The main concern is usability optimization, I'm actively working on it.

How to get the wallet private key?

Files .bin & .address.txt & .keys are in the same folder as the binaries.

No, it's a problem with the coding (a language) your OS. This doesn't affect the finding of blocks.

I'm a dev so I understand but I see this message only since today, I'm on quazar since one week that's why I'm a little surprise, perhaps new version ?
In my own computer, compter's brother and school (yeah I'm a kind of bad guy) I saw this message too.

But if it does'nt affect anything, not a big deal !

[Xdragon]

Nice coin, fair distribution, 120 sec block time... Good parts of BCN + good parts of MRO = QCN
I am glad I discovered this coin.

[trankil]

yes i like this coin !

[33zer0w0lf]

Just wanted to remind everyone we have a working pool for QCN up at http://qcn.extremepool.org

Payouts are working we need more hash!
 

come join us on the pool on IRC, Server Freenode channel #extremepool

[polecrab]

how can you tell when a block is found? will it state one has been found? I can clearly tell im mining but beyond that cant tell much. how do we see what difficulty is also?

A notification that you found a block has green color and looks like: 'Found block for height: xxxxxx'.

About difficulty: use 'print_bc <begin height block> [<end height block>]' command in the daemon window. For example,

Code:

print_bc 4566

or

Code:

print_bc 1000 1005

Where does it print to (Windows 7)?

print_bc 11533
end block index should be greater than starter block index
unknown command: print_bc 11533
print_bc 11532

I tried mining with this pool, using the cryptonote-easy-miner as instructed.

Despite my reluctance to run untrusted windows binaries, I gave the binaries release a try but immediately there are problems.
1) It started trying to use a monero version of simpleminer, that it installed itself.  I have no idea which version that is, if if it really is simpleminer. If it optimised or what else it could be doing.
2) It created a monero wallet to use, and tried to mine with the monero key.

After some messing around, I found I could replace the automatically created wallet with my own, had to rename it to be the same names as expected. It is mining now, but the hashrate reported by the mining pool check is way lower than it should be.

I am wondering if maybe that cryptonote-easy-miner is conning me, I have no way of knowing from the simpleminer window if it is simply sending my hashes to some other pool with another key, maybe one thread goes to the configured pool/key and the rest is skimmed off. Or is there some other explanation why the hash rate is reported so low.  I should be getting around 140 H/s with 7 threads, but I get around 6 H/s reported.

I tried another pool, with same results.  I have another server running linux and not using cryptonote-easy-miner, but cpuminer-multi compiled by myself, and that reports the correct hash rate from the pool.

the pool is going to be updated to stratum shortly.  there will also be a new miner.
