I am currently working on getting a pool for Slimcoin.
Just an update.

Is it riskfull running two or three wallets with the same wallet.dat ?
Unless you really know what you are doing, yes. I imported a private key from one of my wallets to another, then tried to move 100 SLIMs into that new wallet, and poof... they were gone into the ether. It may be possible to recover them, but hell if I know how. May 31, 2014, 03:27:18 PM

Has anyone compiled a x64 version of the miner for an i7 / AVX on windows yet ? I'm thinking I'll try compiling it to see if its much faster.
Pleeeease, do! And share! That's what I've been trying to find ...
Or, maybe with a little help, I might do that:
get code from https://github.com/slimcoin/slimminer ?
compile with what? and with what flags
Complete null on any kind of development/coding activities

If the wallet is encrypted does PoB minting function without walletpassphrase ? i.e. is it only necessary to unlock the wallet for PoS minting ?
I believe so
OK. Thanks slimcoin. Will review the code base and put that into practice.
Can anyone else confirm if they found a PoB block with a 'locked' / encrypted wallet perhaps ?
The PoS button used in Mintcoin and a few other coins would be a useful feature in Slimcoin I think.

Burnt 250 coins yesterday, already 24 hours, still no luck finding PoB. 
Guess it is not profitable for PoB?

Was your client unlocked, synced and running ?
Yes, it is unlocked, synced and running. I got 1 PoW few hours ago.
Maybe I have very bad luck..
Wondering if I can get ROI through PoB

Ok I keep seeing
when i go to debug log
does that mean something worked? or?
this whole mining for myself is new to me, i have no idea what i'm doing.
Code:
CTxMemPool::accept() : accepted e49540cd60

Well i know wallet wont mine PoW when encrypted. So take devs 'believe so' with a grain of salt.

Does slimcoind.exe with the -gen parameter not work?
It should work, run that with -printtoconsole and see if you see mining hashes.

Nope, nothing there leads to a compiled windows miner. website is the same.
Does slimcoind.exe with the -gen parameter not work?Don't want to mine with wallet ... or in the machine where the wallet is running, for that matter.
Isn't this a minerd fork/adaptation to mine slimcoin? https://github.com/slimcoin/slimminer That's the one I want/need, to use on other machines I have on the network ... that run windows
wft am I missing here? feel really dumb on this one

Dev is purposely avoiding serious questions, what a loser.I've had one out of 3 wallets compromised due to inability to mine PoW when encrypted. Why would you not allow a wallet to mine when encrypted, so stupid.
About PoB i don't know, but for PoS a wallet has to be unlocked to mine. I would think it's the same for PoB, but i can't say for sure.

You do not need to run setgenerate true to mine PoB. In order to mine PoB, just burn coins and the client will start automatically. If you turn off and then turn on the client, the client will automatically start PoB mining on the old coins. If your client is off, it will not be mining PoB, the client has to be on.
Does the wallet have to be unlocked for this?
Would it work on linux with slimcoind?
Thanks!

First post?
( It's not 64-bit specific, but 32-bit will run just fine. )

Do I really have to find a way to compile from source? the only place where this miner seems to exist is the source code in github
Thanks for the help, anyway.
Try adding all the nodes mentioned in this thread, you probably just need to sync up.
Thanks, the german nodes did the trick

again my question: Do all miners pointed to that wallet have a chance of finding the PoB block? Or is it essential that the wallet does the mining in order to find a PoB block? (setgenerate true)?
You do not need to run setgenerate true to mine PoB. In order to mine PoB, just burn coins and the client will start automatically. If you turn off and then turn on the client, the client will automatically start PoB mining on the old coins. If your client is off, it will not be mining PoB, the client has to be on.
ok, so that does mean, I should not mine on the same system where the wallet is? Because the CPU is already @ 100% because of the slimminer.
No, PoB mining is so un-intensive that there will be no problems.
alright, thanks a lot for clarification!
