i would like to state that we actually happen to have a block explorer linked a few pages back provided by our good friend CTGiant, as to the pool. we believe that pools are an alright alternative at best for mining in the wallet. we designed Espers so that it would be fair to everyone mining by making it CPU only so everyone has a chance at mining. however with a pool that is only for Linux users it pushes the fairness out the window. if there was a pool for all platforms this would be another story. however OCminer has removed the files to make the miner available for other platforms. we would prefer and encourage all users to use the built in miner, it would make for a fair experience all around.

Actually, there is a block explorer, sorry that we haven't linked it yet are we also not allowed sleep?
Supporting our coin? ONE pool, Linux only? Let's think about this...

We are aiming for a fair experience, one pool is not very decentralized or fair, add the Linux only aspect of it when the in-wallet miner hashes very effectively and now we have complete favoritism.

so as he as a pool, supporting your coin, he is not allowed too sleep or have a life anymore?
you guys weren't able to come up with a block explorer, that needs about 30minutes to be done?

well, started promisingly here and i hope this post was because of too less sleep...


my actual nodes on win 7
"addr" : "198.245.50.213:22447",

         "addr" : "159.203.24.196:22447",
    

We are on it, give us up to 30 minutes, 3 more nodes will be up. Let us know if we can do anything to assist We are here for our community!

argh down to only one connection.....where those nodes at OP?!

In the meantime, I'll look into setting up that node 

We will re-engage the external miner, right now though, three more nodes and the auto-updater is what is about to be released.
To be perfectly honest it's pretty crappy to release a linux only miner and then go hop on a pool... Idk why anyone would be fine with paying a fee when they could solo. Again, we don't specialize in external miners, as such this is where we draw this view from.




Thank you we are doing our best, although slower than we'd like.



well considering ocminer left out entire directories and has no intention of supplying or informing anyone on how to create a windows external miner you might be waiting for a little until our team has time to re-engage the external mining aspect.
Solo mining is still perfectly feasible and is currently our recommended method.
We don't support favoritism and that's exactly what is happening with supernova pool... linux only? C'mond guys....



Besides horribly inaccurate hashrates, requested this be addressed and received no response...
The rate vs payout is also horrible inaccurate.



Couldn't even get our project name correct:
"Suprnova's ESPCoin Pool // Algo: HMQ1725 // Pre-Reg now ! "

Since when are we ESPCoin? Does is state that anywhere in our thread? No....

Waiting cpu miner also.

Same here. This coin looks more promising everytime I stop by.

Good job Devs. and growing community!

Difficulty is fast rising and getting hard to solo mine now, I hope there is an available cpu miner for windows soon that can connect to a pool.

About to release 3 more nodes, hardcode everything and bring you guys a bangin update. Stand by for awesome!






Thanks ctgiant for providing that info! I believe this actually might be the only custom algorithm coin that is mineable on a Mac (very well could be wrong but will wait for someone to show me lol).

SoloMining is definitely getting more difficult now that OCminer's pool is up and running, but I just thought I would show that even the Mac wallet has been able to hit a few blocks.  Not too bad considering that there have been few chances to do so with a mac when a new algo comes out.  This has definitely been a fun few days.

If you want to run a "master" node this is what you need to do:

Open up port "22447" in your System's firewall, then head over to your router and setup port forwarding to your spare PCs IP address so that outside connections are forwarded to the spare machine that has the 22447 port opened up.

By doing so the router will redirect outside connections to your spare PC, (If you provide us your model of Router and the OS of your system we can give you a detailed instruction set)

I know we sound like a broken record but, this community is amazing! Thank you all!

Wow thank you! You're efforts are seriously appreciated and we will save that addy





Awesome! Glad to hear that you are able to mine and enjoy the project. Fair, fun and community driven is our goal!
We still need to update the list again, just been busy working haha




That's what we hope as well, the more people the better!





@EVERYONE:

Excuse our period of silence. We were bashing our heads against a wall with the external miner provided by ocminer and finally we are moving on instead of trudging through the mud.

It is regrettable but here is the error we are receiving in case anyone has an idea:

We had to add in directories THAT WERE MISSING FROM THE OCMINER SOURCE and STILL had that error....


ANYWAY, Auto updater is currently being configured for the Client, new nodes are also compiling the client, we burnt a good 1.5 hours on that external miner and decided that it's simply not worth wasting the time right now especially if there are a lot of users still receiving blocks solo mining.
Pools are not something we really enjoy anyway. Excuse the biased view but our definition of "fair" is not everyone hopping on a single client...
Could also just be the fact that we got annoyed and are venting out here lol.

Anyway, we aren't letting anything stop us. Moving on! (we will continue our development on the external miner but as time is of the essence we will have to come back to this).

Good enough for me!

Regarding the nodes - is it possible for the average user to set up something dedicated to help out this project?  For example, could I run a dedicated ESP node if I have a spare device running 24/7?

I applied for the Giveaway on BitcoinGarden, hopefully more people jump on-board this community driven coin.

the giveaway thread seems to be getting a bit of attention. A few names need to be added to the list again. 

Still finding blocks on a crappy CPU

I will upload to my site last blockchain (15-04-2016) and will be updated every 5 days, and now I'm making a paper wallet generator based on WalletBuilders heheh

Address: EXaB9ijJPFNXejbmZt982D6KD8vaSR69b2

Cheers!

don't worry our next wallet update will have more hard-coded nodes, however we will only hardcode the ones that personally launch for safety reasons. we do not want to be responsible for other nodes turning out to be attack nodes. however we are looking into an easier method of adding third-party nodes.


We are working on getting Espers onto exchanges but our top priority is making sure there are enough nodes, and we make a few more updates. but don't worry we will have it listed. i hope that isn't to vague of a answer for you

Hi again ESPers 

Does the team have ANY plans for getting listed on exchanges?

Any (general) date set for when we could start trading this?  Just curious - no pressure or anything hehe

as I do to mining of its currency?
