Can we do this?


While we wait for the press release, there is one thing that needs to be fixed to maximize our ROI.

When visiting BlackCoin.co I immediately notice that the "Buy BlackCoin" section is way below the fold. The Buy BlackCoin section should be above the fold and should be one of the first elements the visitor sees when visiting the homepage. When people read our press release they are going to visit BlackCoin.co, and they might want to buy a few BlackCoins. We have to make it easy as possible for them to get their hands on BlackCoin.

Unfortunately for the average person not familiar with crypto-currencies, using an exchange to buy coins is a daunting task. First you have to convert Fiat to BTC or some other crypto-currency, and then send that currency to an exchange, and then trade that currency for BlackCoin. The average person will never be able to do that. We need a service like CoinBase that will make it easy for the "grandma" investor to be able to buy BlackCoins without the extra steps. We as a community need to come up with a solution for that in the near future.

Whilst it would be amazing I think realistically a Coinbase type service coming on board this early is unlikely. Remember the big problem with running a fiat exchange is regulation (compliance on a day to day basis and then the cost of having the relevant licenses). So I can't see someone here setting up a service like this for Blackcoin from scratch either.

Instead I think we should focus on the simple easy things, such as making blackcoin.co as user friendly as possible and also as you say prominently directing visitors towards an exchange.

The best route into Blackcoin is probably still by buying Bitcoins. Perhaps we could even have on blackcoin.co the steps eg buy 1 bitcoin at coinbase at this link, then sign up for free at mintpal and place a buy order for 1btc worth of blackcoins.

I removed the .conf file from the folder and restarted the .bat file and got this message:

I don't have the ckolivas.cl or ./kernal/ckolivas.cl files in the sgminer folder?

Yes try cgminer 3.7.2.
Or find version with those missing files

Hi, about a week ago, I had some help via a couple (JamesR1 and XbladeX) of members here with some issues I was having setting up my config files. I know that this will probable seem very simple to most of you, but I am having a nightmare getting my head around it. With BlackFriday looming around the corner, I would like to get myself up and running if possible.

Original enquiry:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.5896117

I have entered my BC Address via My Miner over at Blackcoin Pool.com

Here is my sgminer.conf file text:

Code:
{
"pools" : [
{
"url" : "stratum+tcp://blackcoinpool.com:3333",
"user" : "MyBCAddress",
"pass" : "xxxxxxxxxxx"

}
]
,

"worksize" : "256",
"kernel" : "ckolivas",
"lookup-gap" : "2",
"thread-concurrency" : "24000",

}

Here is the text contained within the Launch - Scrypt.bat file:

Code:
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
del *.bin
Color 0A
sgminer

I then double click on Launch - Scrypt.bat that is in the sgminer-4.1.153-v2 that I downloaded from sgminerwindows.com, but always get this error message?

https://i.imgur.com/isH2xXF.jpg

All the files that are contained within the sgminer that I downloaded are these:

https://i.imgur.com/ZRpHa23.jpg

My card is a AMD Radeon Sapphire HD 7870

Can someone let me know what or where I am going wrong as I have been trying many different settings this evening, but nothing seems to work.
Check config for errors like missing  ","  "}" last time that was my foult i just forgot "," and wasted 3h...
try bat like that:

setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
del *.bin
sgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://blackcoinpool.com:4444 -u BCADDRESS -p PASSWORD

then save config and change parameters inside
if still problems try cgminer 3.7.2 on that bat rest is optimization

IMPORTANT move /rename conf files, miners like force conf paramiters even you have deleted bins



Thank you for the reply XbladeX

I edited the Launch - Scrypt.bat to:

Code:
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
del *.bin
sgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://blackcoinpool.com:4444 -u BDb6rUjx4hF3SwVhgyEZhZF1rfnxjsX7zv -p xxxxxxxx
pause

added pause so I could catch the error window that flashes up, which is as below:

So 365 BC should more or less give another 1 coin per day per wallet

No, it's 1/365% per day so 365 coins = 365*0.000027397 = 0.01 coin per day

If you're a miner, you can mine with us at blackcoinpool.com. Pays out daily at Midnight EST.

How can you mine if its PoS?

Jusdt mine any coin, ex: dogecoin, sell it to BTC and then buy some BC (BlackCoin). That is the way the blackcoin multipool do.

The best way to mine blackcoins is with the official pool. Blackcoinpool.com

In order to create new coins you simply need to hold them in your wallet for some time and allow them to stake.

In the case of BlackCoin, it will start to stake after about 24 hours in the wallet and will generate 1%/year or 1/365% per day

are you sure, I thought it was only 8 hours?

Minimum 8 hours. It depends on how many coins you have as well.

Steam money for blackcoins is amazing. Also, would be an easy way to convince gamers to mine on the multipool.

I'm definitely in a Titan group buy if we can somehow materialize that. What a simple way to reinvest back into the coin.
