Where is current hashrate Suprnova or MN? Can not choose which info is real..
cpu-pool is current hashrate real.

Where is current hashrate Suprnova or MN? Can not choose which info is real..

Both are accurate; nethashrate (equivalent to networkhashps via getmininginfo) is quite irrelevant, as it is based on calculations derived from the rate that blocks are being solved, its not actually derived from network conditions.
Suprnova is 1,600kh/s and Pool.mn is around 240kh/s.

If you were to take the same share rate/size as currently being submitted (as scrypt), you'd divide the results by 128 for Lyra2.

Additionally, i got quite sick of xzc.pool.mn; as the stratum appeared to continuously fail and reappear last night (no doubt due to traffic).
This may actually be an implementation problem with Zerocoin and not pool.mn itself.
Ok, that is good to know. But statistics page on both pool show total different results.

MTP algo CPU friendly ?
ASIC resistant?

According the the whitepaper, yes.  It's memory hard.

I drew the fib levels for our market on tradingview (because you can't anywhere for nova).

We are currently at the .382 retracement level.  It's usually a good spot to buy, we will see...  Cheesy

are there any Mac wallets available ?

Why is this coin only available on these 'weird and shitty ' exchanges ?
does not seem/feel good !

Because it's a weird and shitty coin that is going to be superceded in the "weird and shitty and premined and trusted setup" niche by zcash in about 10 days.

The only weird thing here is the persistence of those who can only blame their own ignorance for missing the ZCoin train in spreading lies and FUD.

Myth: "Weird and shitty"
Fact: Based upon the very advanced ZCoin protocol proposed by academic researchers (See http://spar.isi.jhu.edu/~mgreen/ZerocoinOakland.pdf)

Myth: "Premined"
Fact: There was no premine whatsoever.

Myth: "Trusted setup is insecure"
Fact: The inability to perform prime factorization in a reasonable amount of time (where 'reasonable' means CPU-years) is the basis of modern cryptography. If you can easily compromise a trusted setup then congratulations, the entire world is yours to take.

I'm seriously wondering how some people are even able to breathe.



easy there
i am asking a general question here
and your answer does NOT help at all !
so .... ?

any news of a GPU miner on the horizon?
seems a modified version of lyra2 with additional rows and block height as a parameter is definitely in the realm of doable..

i'd say it most likely already exists but someone is holding it close to their chest..

If zcoin is switching algos soon i dont think we'll ever see one

Where did you read about algo change? Sure you don't mean zcash?

It's under development milestones on github.  They are switching to MTP.

Wow just wow. Another big miner. He found 17 blocks today. $2.5k in a day.
 
https://zcoin.rocks/address/aPfRPrp1JNSxM4ibQhcbKfR1b5Ai6iW9YJ

Suprnova found 109 valid blocks. He has 16% of ocminer pool's hashrate. How are they doing it?

It's pool.mn's wallet. Not that big, it's okay. U could reach its power with 1000 machines, easy. Tongue

Ok good. I thought it was one of those superminers.

Unless Zcoin get this business about coins not being confirmed sorted, I very much doubt they will be added on Bittrex even though Bittrex seems interested.

what about all these positives when scanning the binaries?
https://www.virustotal.com/pt/file/a6676f1059ea41e00f670527866e78329061d7212c662a63a48ee82797219149/analysis/1476636016/

ps: i did install at a virtual machine and all i'm getting is 0.00 kh/s.... what should i do?

WTF
nobody have seen this? is there any clean miner?

Well.. It's a miner.. So the virusscanners report it's a miner when you check the results Smiley

if you want to be sure just compile it yourself, i have added a small tutorial on this on my blog (im sure you'll find it with "blog felixbrucker" in google)

also you can upload the resulting cpuminer binary to virustotal and see, that many anti virus programs flag it as false positive or straight "miner", which it actually is, just like ocminer said

cheers
