The plan is currently to simply add a Mine button into the Wallet-qt which will allow users to easily pool mine without doing lots of complicated steps. 

We're going to start working on bridging the gap between the wallet and pool mining. Now that mining in pools is the best way to accrue coins, we want to create a more user-friendly experience. Currently, Veggie miners need thrid party mining pool software, as with many other altcoins - sometimes challenging to install. This is OK for the initial adopters of the coin, because we're all coin nerds from bitcoin talk, who know what we're doing

As the community grows into the general population, the Veggiecoin mining software must become easier to use. The general population is not as clued in on mining as we might be.

We will be discussing our ideas further on the discord https://discordapp.com/channels/390073260861292545/394459401097838604

I think this would be a really great idea. The more movement we have as a community the faster we will be able to list on exchanges

It will be good if we can all get together and lobby exchanges because those guys are swamped and they will need to see interest from the community. Does anyone know any exchange people?

Are you using the correct wallet.dat from Veggie? You may accidentally be using a different blockchains wallet

I installed the new wallet, i.e version 1.2.
Getting below error, each time I start my wallet -

"Error reading wallet.dat! All keys read correctly but transaction dataor address book entries might be missing or incorrect.

Anyone facing similar issue and how to fix this permanent ?

Version 1.2 of the Veggie-qt is now available at veggiecoin.io ! Please download the newest version .

It certainly is - the retarget difficulty time rules will take effect at block 17500, then we will focus on listing on exchanges as our next priority. In the meantime you can download the new software wallet directly form the website veggiecoin.io 

So the project is moving forward  ?

Our next priority will be listing on exchanges, but before we do we have decided to change the retarget time of Veggie to make the coin more robust against attacks by users with huge hashing power. Changing the re-target time for blocks will mean that if someone with a lot of hashing power (50MH/s+) comes in and strips out a section of the chain, the difficulty can increase and decrease rapidly to compensate for this huge change in hashing power on the network, reducing the amount the strip miner can mine, and then increasing the amount normal miners can mine when he has left.

This change will be implemented this week, and once it is implemented, users will need to download the new version of the code from our website veggiecoin.io

For any information please check out the discord channel in the top post  thanks.

We have found a fix for the bug which has been causing the Veggie fund to not receive it's bonus from pool mining.  

There was a small logic error in the validation rules which was allowing the pools to lose this bonus along the way. The fund bonus wasn't going somewhere new, it was simply not being created in the first place due to this error.

We will be implementing the fix for this over the weekend, and the new validation rules will be enforced by the network after block 17000, at which time pool owners will have to send 20% of the block reward to the Veggie fund, or the network will reject the block. At the time of writing this post, the block height is 16889 - so a couple days until the change is enforced.


Those of you who are running mining pools will only have to change one parameter in your configuration after you pull from github and recompile - so it won't take more than two minutes to switch over.

In coin settings, you must change the following:

Charity Percent -> 20
Charity Address -> KFDc3DLyymMkZajpksc5HLtNw5GBUWmtTh

We will be providing support in the discord if you get stuck

As soon as the changeover is successful, listing on exchanges will be top priority.

Thank you

A big thank you to the community devs who have helped us with this fix, you have been instrumental in the success of this fix:

This is great and got my GF's interest 

Nice to see, I think will be demand for this

I´m planning a altruistic coin too, I think the world need more good coins with good intentions

and less scammers trying to get rich with poor projects.

I think your Team is rather lean and streamlined. The team should be diversified - Sales/ marketing, dev etc. If you are getting advisors then it should be fast now that the project is gathering momentum as these would boost confidence in your project. Goodluck in your peoject.

problem solved
reinstalled everyting!!

peerlist??

Hey all. It's very good to see all the excitement for this coin to hit exchanges, both on this thread and in the discord. As many of you know the development team on this coin is super small. Only 2 of us, and we both work full time.

We have recently found a bug in the software that causes the mining pools to not pay the correct amount of coins to the veggie fund, and only reward the miner of the block.

We did not foresee this error because the coin mines perfectly in the QT software, and both the pool mining and the QT mining access the same function, which is where we made the changes.

We figured we could fix this bug ourselves over time, in our spare time between working our full-time jobs - but we don't want to make the community wait for our coin to be released on exchanges, if this bug could be fixed quickly by someone in the community with knowledge of the bitcoin source code.

So we are offering 10,000 Veggie for anyone who can fix this bug before we can. That way we can reward a member of our community and fix up this bug more quickly. Then we can get on exchanges more quickly, and help the animals sooner.

Anyone who is interested in giving this bug a crack can find the details here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2674784.new#new

Thank you to all who attempt - your efforts are helping many animals in need

Try reinstalling the dependencies, I think you have missed or misspelled one
Follow up in the discord if this does not fix the issue and I will help debug
