make sure to set -allpools 1 in the config file!Before you choose what pool to mine on, make sure to check the hashrates of each pool and try to spread hashing power evenly between each pool to keep blocks decentralized.Pools:https://mine77.net/ - 0% fee!
http://irdpool .tk (remove the space between the . and the tk) - 0% fee!
http://ird.globalpool.cc/ - 0% fee until September 30th!
Any suggestions for improvement will be taken on board, and any development done by someone other than myself will be rewarded with a bounty. I want this currency to be as open-source as possible to maintain decentralized development.
I will also update this all to be nice and pretty when I am allowed to post images, so don't worry about the lack of anything good looking at the moment. Feel free to ask any questions below, whether it be you'd like to help with the development of the coin, or have some suggestions or criticisms below.
