It happens from time to time but you're still receiving full shares. Once the backend issues are fixed all the coins mined during that period will hit almost instantly. One time suprnova was freaking out about me doing a withdrawal because about 50+ coins hit almost instantly and the maximum recommended held in pool is 20.

If you refresh the KR pool page at suprnova, you'll notice their message in the upper right of your screen.

Suprnova is investigating backend issues. Your shares are safe. This happens occasionally.

I have PMed ocminer to reset it.

No one's receiving any shares or KR

Nope. Removing this line entirely.

Per @pltrdy: "The GPU 64bits is useless in our case.
That would be to force GPU to use 64bits addresses. Its usefull to use more than 4G RAM (as 32bits can only addresse 4G RAM), in our case the DAG is <2G, i dont rlly understand what a 64bits pointer could change"

I think you're right... changing this:   setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 1

Was working fine until I added the setx commands.

Good Morning, Krypton!

I'd like to talk to you today about solo mining Krypton, since I've just learned how to myself.

I am miner.     (noob miner, so bear with me)

First of all, let me briefly explain my gear and what I had to do to get up and running.

The gpu I'm running is an NVIDIA GTX970M on an MSI GT72 laptop, with added cooling protection. I wouldn't recommend running a gpu on a laptop without cooling.

image h/t @ecco in slack

I'm not only new to mining, I'm also new to this laptop (3rd day) so, at first, I did not have the 'extra primo badass cooling system' turned on. After 1 hour of mining, I began to smell 'circuits' and immediately ceased. The system fan alone was not keeping up. So, I had some coffee (it was *early) and re-evaluated my situation. After the 2nd cup, I remembered to turn on the cooling system. (Note to self: don't ever do anything dangerous with your laptop before coffee.)

After restarting the mining with the cooling system, everything appears to be running fine.

Now, let me tell you how I got here...

1. I went to Krypton's website, http://Krypton.Rocks/mining/ and downloaded the ETH-miner.

2. I extracted the ETH-miner into my GKR directory.

This was no easy task on this new laptop with Norton antivirus pre-installed. Ugg! It kept telling me that there was a Trojan2 virus and kept preventing me from extracting the files, at first.

I spoke with RagingBull about this and he told me that, in addition to Norton, Chrome also does not play well with ETH-miner. :\

Only after disabling Norton, was I able to successfully extract and run ETH-miner, without it getting deleted each time I attempted to run it!  

When I ran ETH-miner the first time, it returned the error, "missing MSVCP120.dll" and quit.

Lucky for me @pltrdy from slack was wide awake in a later time zone than me and was able to point me to the fix. "Download Microsoft Visual c++ 2013 library, aka vcredist," he said. I found it from Microsoft here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784

3. Next, I went to slack's #mining_discussions room where @cakes has left some excellent .bat files for running the 2 programs needed to mine KR, GKR and ETH-miner. Here they are the .bat files:


Save this as Start_GKR_RPC.bat and place it in your GKR folder.


Save this as Start_mining.bat and place it in your GKR folder. (Be sure to click 'all files' as the file type before saving, instead of .txt)

After testing Start_mining.bat with these new setx settings, I will update these .bat files the Krypton.Rocks mining page.

4. If you have not synced your KR QT wallet, do so now. *** Any KR mined before the wallet is fully synced are invalid and not spendable. ***

5. Now, from the GKR folder, click on the first .bat file, Start_GKR_RPC.bat . This will start GKR for mining. (You can also start this file from the command prompt.)



6. Next, from the GKR folder, click on the second .bat file,  Start_mining.bat . This will start your ETH-miner. (You can also start this file from the command prompt.)



ETH-miner will begin creating a DAG file. When this finishes, it will automatically begin mining.

wweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee   I'm mining! (Just like Bill Murray in 'What About Bob?"... saying, "I'm sailing!" lol)

So there you have it, my noob mining tale and how I got it all running.

It is entirely possible that I've misspoken the lingo since I've never mined before. If so, please forgive me and correct me. I don't mind.

This tale of success is meant to help other noobs get up and running solo-mining KR.

Good luck, noobs!  

If you get stuck, come to Krypton's slack and ask @cakes or @pltrdy for mining help.

Happy Mining!

covertress, noob miner  

P.S. You can follow my progress on Krypon's Richlist. I'm #5.  http://gaiaplatform.com/kr/richlist.php

Yobit is sooooo boring, can we have Bittrex

 

Hi how it gonna be the coin going to be only POW? POW + POS or 100% POS or DPOS?

Krypton is now testing Slack / irc integration from Sameroom.

Come to either room, irc #Kryptoncoin or Krypton's slack.

Whatever you say in irc now gets relayed to Krypton's slack and whatever is said in Krypton's slack #general channel gets relayed to irc #Kryptoncoin.

If you'd like an invite to Krypton's slack, click here >> slackinc955.azurewebsites.net/

A simple irc client is webchat, found here >> https://webchat.freenode.net/

Please come help us test this. We have two weeks to decide, before purchase, if it's what the community wants / needs.

Thanks.



edit: all systems, go

Due to the limited supply of Krypton, I would say that the smart choice to make would be to hold onto your coins for long term. The rarity of KR will make it valuable at least, due to this factor and as long as there is enough interest in it. The amount of KR you earn now may seem small, but it may prove to be worth holding it in the near future.

As for me, I am just buying a little amount of KR each day and growing my stack for the future. 

Don't worry about him. Unfortunately natural selection won't be doing anything with him. I apologize for his genes. He goes to every thread and does something like this:

Using slutty behavior to pump coins? I guess it's kind of refreshing.

I love this avatar campaign. Has anyone tried to scan the QR code yet?  

Since the amount is so low i would suggest just holding on to them. Not really worth to sell at this point. Im guessing the price will be going up at some point (be it for a pump or steady growth).

I would hold them and see what happens. No point in selling them now.

Do you guys think that it's better to hold on to KR? I'm gonna be earning 5KR per 3 days in this avatar campaign. I thought of selling them at the instant I get them. But it will only give me. 0.00025+. Should I hold on to this or nah?

Had no idea ETH-based block explorers were so complicated but I agree, accomplishing this would be a great opportunity for this coin and to show at Consensus.
