Does BlueFury work for mining this coin? Or I need to use Erupter?
yes, BlueFury should work as well; but you need the modified cgminer.

the idea is to use ASIC erupter (or similar small device) + CPU.
thus, CPU only is possible in theory but in practice not.
it would be possible to use a GPU + CPU, for that we need to patch bfgminer (which still supports GPU), while cgminer does not not support GPU anymore.
But still, an ASIC erupter is more convenient than a GPU.

need nodes to sync wallet and solo mining..
there are currently a few active nodes, but several people are syncing their block chains right now, so it could take a few minutes for a new wallet to be ready for mining.

Sorry im noob i don't understand who mine solo with my cpu or gpu if the wallet dosen't sync.. using windows

great idea, wish i had one
you can find cheap ASIC erupters on ebay. they cost 20-30$

January 03, 2014, 06:54:29 PM
does it work with cpu mining as well?
January 03, 2014, 06:53:55 PM
nice site, really full of detail and good explained, and great idea
too bad i don't have any asci erupter

Linux users: git checkout from https://github.com/mrtexaznl/bfgminer, switch to branch bfgminer and build as usual.
If you need help or want a binary for Ubuntu 12.04, drop a line in the forum.

https://github.com/mrtexaznl/bfgminer/releases/download/v3.9.0.3-med/win32-bfgminer-2.zip
New mcproxy (called mcproxy3) with improved multithreading support
mcproxy3 is needed with first generation of bfgminer/cgminer, which you can find here:
http://www.mediterraneancoin.org/downloads/win32-cgminer-mediterraneancoin.zip
https://github.com/mrtexaznl/bfgminer/releases/download/v3.9.0.1-med/win32-bfgminer-1.zip
Source code: https://github.com/mrtexaznl/mcproxy/tree/master/mcproxy3, you can find it in the same repo of mcproxy (https://github.com/mrtexaznl/mcproxy)
direct link for downloading the binaries: http://www.mediterraneancoin.org/downloads/mcproxy3-dist.zip
Use in this way (if you stay in the same directory containing mcproxy3.jar: )
java -jar mcproxy3.jar
additional parameters:
-t: min delta time is the starting value for the mininum time distance between two successive getwork requests to the wallet.
-m: mininum queue length is the minimum number of getworks, elaborated with stage 1 of PoW, which mcproxy tries to keep in the queue, so that they are ready to be sent to the miners requesting them.
The tutorial for solo mining Mediterraneancoin on Windows is here!
IMPORTANT NOTE: when mining (solo or pool), you will need:
1 - the wallet (or daemon)
2 - mcproxy (an intermediate application which implements a part of the PoW algorithm) [mcproxy in included in the wallet binaries archives]
3 - the modified miner (cgminer or bfgminer)

ATTENTION: when restarted, the daemon will do a rescan of the blockchain, which might take a few hours on slower machines.
Add a "rescan=0" option to your mediterraneancoin.conf configuration file to skip rescan.
instructions:
1 - stop the wallet (or the daemon) if is not running
2 - backup your wallet.dat file [this operation will not touch wallet.dat but it is always safe to make a backup of your wallet]
3 - inside .mediterraneancoin directory remove the previous blocks and chainstate directories

5 - restart the wallet (or the daemon)
6 - wait for the wallet/daemon to complete the block rescan (might take hours!)

Mediterraneancoin (MED) is a derivative of Bitcoin/Litecoin using a new proof-of-work algorithm called HybridScryptHash256.
The new Proof of Work algorithm HybridScryptHash256 is described in detail here: http://www.mediterraneancoin.org/hybridscrypthash256.pdf
The new Proof of Work algorithm HybridScryptHash256 is described in detail here: http://www.mediterraneancoin.org/hybridscrypthash256.pdf
HybridScryptHash256 integrates the best of Hash256 and Scrypt algorithms, allowing the reuse of the less powerful ASIC Block Erupter devices.
