I guess for now you should use TWO wallets. One for mining, the other one for managing your PPC cash flow. Only leave those coins in the STAKE wallet which you intend to use as stake?

That would probably be too much trouble for users. I will look into this matter if it's a trivial change I would provide it sooner.

Having two different wallets is an easy concept for the user to grasp and you can be sure to have no interference. It would be great if you had that functionality within one wallet. But it may take a while to get this right. Till then, I think it's safest to employ a dedicated STAKE wallet.

Just a quick question Sunny, as my eyes are getting kinda blurry looking at hash.

For PPC what officially is the:

Chain Name

Code 3

Address_version

I have been experimenting with a block explorer for PPC.

Thank you

Chain Name: ppcoin
Code 3: PPC (if this is what I guess what it is)
Address_version: 55 (address starts with 'P')

We have started a PPCoin pool! at Coinotron.com

2. On our website choose worker type PPC. Point worker to coinotron.com, port 8322 or 9322.
3. Depending on worker type you can have Proportional (2% fee) or PPS (3% fee) rewards

Hey all,

Just wanted to say gratz to sunny king and PPCoin as it seems to be happily being adopted by people especially in the last few days with a sudden rush of new pools, wallet gui's, exchanges and even video tutorials

ty doublec, Darktongue and all those involved.

Did just want to highlight the sudden jump in difficulty .... been around 3600ish for a while... now up to 8800 ... and by looking at http://ppcpool.bitparking.com/blockstats i see that there are some hefty hashers out there in the pool already!!

i'm updating a few posts for pool mining and websites for PPCoins on http://www.ppcointalk.org and feel free to add ur own sites etc

enjoy ur PPCoins!!

If you hold the coins for long enough to qualify for a PoS, but, you're constantly sending/receiving will it automatically select addresses with lowest coin age? Or, do we need to somehow do this ourselves?

But if you do lots of spends I am not yet sure. This is an action item that will be followed up likely for v0.3.

Thanks,

I am not aware that you can select which coins to send, unless you modify the code yourself. We haven't changed the coin selection logic so it's still the same as Bitcoin. The minter will gradually split your large coins to reasonable sizes so you don't end up consuming all your coinage in one small spend. But if you do lots of spends I am not yet sure. This is an action item that will be followed up likely for v0.3.

Thanks,

stupid question really but can you mine with mutiple gpus on multiple rigs to one ppcoin address?

also how do i point two gpus to mine ppcoin when using pheonix... currently when trying to get second gpu mining the phoenix client crashes.

Sad

Forget about trying to build cgminer. Just download the latest from the link I sent. It should auto detect your cards. The program will be in a zipped folder that you will unzip in whatever location you prefer. No building required.
You'll be able to use both cards on one worker account at your pool.
You should use the same settings that you do when mining bitcoins. Ppcoin mining is the same as bitcoin.
One pool may be different from another but you'll probably get your coins after 520 blocks. At that time the coins will be "mature".

Good luck.

If you mine @ http://ppcpool.bitparking.com/pool you can withdraw your coins as soon as they're mined without waiting for confirmation

CGminer works fine

I cant seem to install it... the instructions packaged with it i followed to a T but then as soon as it came to compiling cgminer within the mingw shell it throws errors about certain files not being present etc. Are there no setup installers for it?

I've done a couple of PPCoin mining contracts over the past day or two, if anyone wants some serious mining horsepower pointed their way send me a PM.
You can see a contract I currently have going over at http://ppcpool.us.to/ - address PHb9BwyLyzaCQqc3wWPey6oaGGFHzGnJby

FYI, with the difficulty increase to 8300 and the reward dropping to 1000PPC the equivalent "price" of ppcoin now rose to 0.00015 BTC/PPC or 6500 PPC/BTC:

(2700000/8300)*(1000 PPC/50 BTC) = 325 * 20 PPC/BTC =6500 PPC/BTC
[relative chance to find a block in PPC * relative proportion of the reward in PPC]

I hope someone can help me. When I use guiminer (phoenix) or cgminer and one vid card is hashing say at 350mh/s, when I start minining the next video mine, the 1st video slows to like 300mh/s and the 2nd vid card is not getting the full speed either, missing about 50mh/s. I am selecting different devices, for example, 0-1 cypress and 0-2 cypress.

Is this a driver issue?

The transaction was sent through the PPCoin Gui (qt), and I just used the regular send action. If you want I can dig up the txID, but I doubt it's on the network as a restore to my old wallet backup showed my old coins...

Do you remember the exact time you sent it? 18:00 UTC was the network switch time, I want to know if this may have something to do with it. You said the gui prompt an error message about coin already spent? Since I don't use gui I'd like to at least keep a record of what exactly occurred with this incident.
