To the author : How would you guarantee this project of yours will not be abandoned?  As it was with Lottoshares.

Is that even a good thing? If the coin is really popular and successful then I doubt he will abandon it (and if he does someone else will take over). But if a coin doesn't really get anywhere in terms of adoption, does it really make sense for the developer to stick with it forever? Why not learn from the experiment and move on to something else that might succeed?

In fact a good test of merit for a coin is whether others take over when the original developer leaves, as happened with Bitcoin. Apparently that didn't happen with Lottoshares (not really familiar with it).

Well it's not just Freetrades responsibility to keep up with HOdlcoin.. It's all of ours..

loving this pool I can make some HODL on my 2 year old laptop lol.  How do you get a higher hashrate with this algo like what do you need a larger hard drive or a graphics card, there aren't any asics obviously right?

Only thing now is a faster cpu.

Wow this is the first time that a CPU miner is slower than the wallet miner.  Grin

was 100h/s became 140h/s

LOL and I call myself a sysadmin...  Grin

Cheers, hashrate went from 100H/s to 120H/s.

Code:
./autogen.sh
./configure
make

If you are just compiling for yourself I would recommend a small change
./configure CFLAGS="-O3 -march=native" CXXFLAGS="-O3 -march=native"

This will optimize the binary as much as possible for your particular processor.

If the miner uses openssl for sha and aes, like the wallet miner, it doesn't make a difference.
BTW -Ofast usually brings a little improvement over -O3.

Yep, that can be worth trying, though it can create problems as well as it breaks standards compliance.  In this case I did not see any noticeable performance difference so I did not bother. 

I have uploaded a new Windows binary for the poor souls still stuck with it, https://hodl.blockquarry.com/downloads/hodlminer.zip

It should be much faster, though we welcome other people optimizing things.  Make sure you compile with some sort of optimization otherwise your miner will be slower than the wallet.


miner.bat:
Code:
hodlminer.exe -a hodl -o http://172.0.0.1:8332 -u xxx -p xxx 

Should work, right? Maybe it is because when I installed I set the data directory to a different hard disk?

It is 127, not 172.  Something like this is what you are looking for:
Code:
hodlminer.exe -a hodl -o http://127.0.0.1:8332 -u xxx -p xxx --no-getwork --coinbase-addr=HM8kWC4G3q5dy3UjffAgTbJkJPFigEM53Z

What name does the conf file need? I tried hodl.conf, hodlcoin.conf and HOdlcoin.conf but can't get the miner to connect to the wallet...  Huh

hodlcoin.conf:
Code:
server=1
rpcuser=xxx
rpcpassword=xxx
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=8332

miner.bat:
Code:
hodlminer.exe -a hodl -o http://172.0.0.1:8332 -u xxx -p xxx 

Should work, right? Maybe it is because when I installed I set the data directory to a different hard disk?

Cheeto02 has a pool set up for this coin for anyone interested.  While he has more work to do it is far enough along to let others use it.  For example the hashrates do not look quite right in the pool, do not have something right about that calculation yet between stratum and mpos. 

Register here to use it: https://hodl.blockquarry.com

The source has been posted here for now: https://hodl.blockquarry.com/downloads/hodlminer.tar.gz

A Windows binary has been built but we are more Linux people than Windows so it needs optimization, give this a try: https://hodl.blockquarry.com/downloads/hodlminer.zip

Good luck

What are the instructions for compiling on linux?

Code:
./autogen.sh
./configure
make

I have just the file Hodl coin-1.0.0-win64-setup.exe downloaded. My Norton AntiVirus has deleted and claiming it was malware. Is there an explanation?  Huh

So, I have finally got my virtual hands on some HODL and I am HODLing away  Grin

Do I need to keep the wallet running to HODL?

nope

Is it safe to use on Windows ?
I ran avast on it and it came back ok

If you're ok sacrificing ~25% of your hashrate..go for it.
