[ANN][SHC] ShinyCoin █First ever RAMHOG algo Pow/Pos █NO ASIC/GPU | Whitepaper

How do I join pool?  Had wallet open for more than a day now, no blocks.

Before primer propagandizes you into not wanting to mine just download standalone miner (link at top) and ask sandor111 how to point your hash power there.  The hash power on network is climbing so its getting tough.

[Bleeckerpub]

i had mined for two days, get nothing just cost my money

That's why a pool would be nice, but I don't think all the bugs have been worked out yet.

[utrecht]

YAY Do you share my opinion about this being the new 'bitcoin' monero ? expecting monero like price once it hits polo or mint !

Partly! Promising enough because it eliminates botnet mining and it has a proper algo, but the codebase is still Bitcoin.

Monero is a different story (with enough bugs to get fixed)

Anyway, this coin is far far away of being another shitclone

Still have to read all background info before i can have a real opinion but so far no complaining

What was special about monero?

Although it's not displayed, the pool has found a total of 7 blocks to date. Payouts for these blocks will be processed ASAP (after they're confirmed) as I'm working on repairing the pool database.

who will get them?

I point my several miners to your pool for 1-2days... but get nothing.
the address is SYPu*************.

Blocks have been added, you will get paid if they are confirmed.

how come the diff is still so low?

[trand]

no pool that supports this coin? Why the front page only information but no promo and how mining it? or the use of solo mining?

You are joking right ? I have not hit a single block in hours (690 hashes/m)

Theres a pool but couldnt figure out how to use it.  I finally got a block mining solo so it is possible.

Download the standalone miner (link in OP).
Start the miner: ./shinyminer -o stratum+tcp://106.3.225.46:6666 -O SHINYADDRESS:x -t 1

Everyone should understand now that anything primer types in this thread is designed to discourage others from mining.  I'd bet my left testicle he's lying about not getting a block in however long.  I don't have too much hash power (nothing close to 690h/m) and it hasn't been bad.  Primer is a greedy mother f***er and doesn't understand that if you have all the coins its not worth anything, and that its better for as many people as possible to mine.

what's wrong?

I used win wallet and can't sync. It stunck at block 0.

Dont use uni servers for coin mining!!

so that diff "0.00003282" is high? or maybe you are the one that is joking...

That's not good, bro.
I don't as I used vpn address to connect.

It is high... the hardware requirements are high, and even with 32 cores and 244 GB of RAM you get only 1.8 hashes/second. Not kilohashes or megahashes, just hashes.

Shinyminer source: https://github.com/siklon/shinyminer

Code:

git clone https://github.com/siklon/shinyminer
cd shinyminer
./autogen.sh
./configure CFLAGS="-Ofast -funroll-loops"
make
./minerd -o stratum+tcp://106.3.225.46:6666 -O SWVcv2ByWmriwD4X97bEUhnooHww6qR2at:x -t 1

That's cool! Have you tested it or is this a call for testing?

If you mine to a wallet instance instead of that IP, does it work?

No its not working. He is working with the dev to fix it.

Compiled the source with: "-Ofast -funroll-loops"

On an EC2 r3.8xlarge instance (32 cpu vcores, 244GB ram), mines with 15 ramhog threads at ~110 hashes/min (7.3 hashes/min/thread):

Code:

[2014-06-26 16:03:31] accepted: 1/1 (100.00%), 109.20 hash/m (yay!!!)

Is it good or bad hashrate compared to the boxes you have tried?

I have been doing some testing on the EC2 and I found that the smaller Memory optimized instances are more efficient than the larger ones.

The r3.8xlarge gives between 107-110 hash/m and costs around 0.256$
The r3.4xlarge gives between 62-65 hash/m and costs around 0.128$
The r3.2xlarge gives between 36-40 hash/m and costs around 0.064$

I didn't check the r3.xlarge as you are limited to 5 instances in each region when you are using spot instances but my guess is that it is even more efficient. You would just need a lot of them to match the larger servers.

So clearly 4 x r3.2xlarge would be a better option than 1 x r3.8xlarge in relation to hash per $ as for the same cost you would get 144-160 hash/m while the single r3.8xlarge would only give you 107-110 hash/m

Hope this helps

We need moooooooore amazon cloud suckers mining this coin so once it hits an exchange they dont dump for peanuts! 

[Skarfur]

Another thing I have noticed is that even if you lower down the amout of threads running on the EC2's you still keep the same amount of hashrate. You just get more hash/m on each thread instead.

Like on the r3.8xlarge. I got the same amount of hash/m if I was using 8 or 10 threads as when I was using 15 threads.

CPU power... I am maxing out 8 core i7 4770 with only two threads.
