# Bitnote uses a DNS seed to obtain node address. You should only need to enter these following nodes if you are solo mining, using the wallet as a server;

Mining
Download X11 mining software here:  

Code:

https://mega.co.nz/#!rN40yKiR!wkhSAxJ4ekranMhgKvvWRdRbreAmCRuzo4goJrVRmAg

This software may generate virus scan false positives so you will need to create a rule/exception to prevent it being intercepted by your antivirus software. Extract the minderd files and create a new file with Notepad. In this files, enter the following:

Solo mining through wallet

Code:

minerd -a X11 --url http://localhost:43661 -u your_user_name -p your_password

Or

Pool mining

Code:

minerd -a X11 --url=stratum+tcp://myminingpool.com:43661 --userpass=my.worker:password

The username and password should be the same as those entered in your bitnote.conf file. Save this .text file as bitnote.bat - making sure that you choose from the 'Save as type' drop down box 'All Files' otherwise it will be saved as a text file. Place bitnote.bat batch in the same folder as minerd.exe but don't open up the file yet!

Using a CMD window, navigate In the folder where you have saved the bitnote Wallet, hold down shift key and right click on an empty space. Select 'Open command window here' and in the CMD Prompt window, type:

Code:

bitnote-qt.exe -server

This will instruct your wallet to open with the -server switch and enable minerd to work its magic. Now go back to the folder where minerd was extracted and open up bitnote.bat and minerd should now start mining.


There is a 50,000 BNT premine which is 0.5% as percentage and 0.05 as a decimal of the total 10 million BNT that will ever be produced. This is for bounties, marketing and future development work.

I dunno what he's up to but whatever it is it is nothing good and to be proud of for sure.

[Sharrow]

My sincerest apologies for removing posts. In all honesty it was a moment of stupidity and should not have been done.

The release has been plagued by non-stop attacks to spike the difficulty up which causes the blockchain to hang completely. The native retarget for each block just isn't effective. I am working on a solution to fix the issue but it's causing all kinds of compilation errors so can't be released until it works.

That did lead you into changing the topic name into ".."?

I had deleted everything inside the thread including the announcement and title and have put back now.

Not Ninja ! first 1440 blocks reward is 1 Coin, normal reward is 50 coins... and Diff retargeting is bugged you are stuck after a few block.

nb: i am not invested in this coin but i tried it.

[djm34]

so that's it ? failed ?

[Sharrow]

The code has been rectified and the blockchain is now working.

The source code is here: https://github.com/BitNote/bitnote

Is this coin relaunching everyday or is it me ?  
what about the 1440 block already mined ?

It is same the blockchain from the re-release and it hasn't started again. The first 1440 blocks are the original ones and took several days to mine because of the difficulty spikes, which should hopefully now be fixed.
