If I got a multi-TB hard drive, connected it to a computer, formatted the drive, put the wallet and miner software info in a folder on that drive, and used that computer to plot the rest of the drive, then took that drive out and put it in a different computer...

It would mine with no problems, right?  I'd open the wallet file and start the miner and it'd be no different than if that drive were installed and plotted in that computer right from the start?

Mostly.

You still have to have the wallet software running (unless your pool mining)

8tb hdd's announced, maybe something to be watching out for.

They will be expensive regarding $/TB. At the moment 3/4TB drives are best.

Sure, you can mine there, too.

Yes, that is correct.

it would be worth it if more coin like this(but maybe based on c++ and not java) would be released

Having great luck today, hit 3 blocks: 6009, 6100 and 6118 so far. Only 50% done creating plots on 2.785 TB space and prior to that only 1 block in 5 days. Started 6 days ago creating plots for my recent setup change.

Glad to hear that! I just hit a block myself! 6114 Smiley

I was consider changing this setup for pool mining, would have gotten way less....lol

Cool you get a block too... Cool

I love it when you get two in a row  Grin
Looks like one of the big boys maybe offline  Grin

This happened before about a 2 days ago.

He probably has a hardware issue maybe, ie hard drive failure. Just a guess.

Does it matter how large your plots are?


Is there a common method of quantifying "hashrate" along with expected results?

In general, the larger the better and more hash rate. Not sure how to quantify the results, maybe ask the dev.

Well....the cmd window generating the block just crashed.  It was up about 1 minute.

Is there a way to see what error it hit?


This is what my run_generate.bat looks like right now:
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\java -Xmx1000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate acctnumber 1 3200000 1000 4


edit: set tje -Xmx1000m to 400 and it generated a plot.  Guess I am OK!

I can't seem to get the run_generate.bat to work.  It just flash up then goes away instantly.


C:\Windows\SysWOW64\java -Xmx1000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate *my account number is here* *1* *1600000* 1000 4

What should that be looking like?  Thanks!

C:\Windows\SysWOW64\java -Xmx1000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate ACCOUNT ID NUMBER 1 1600000 1000 4

Like-C:\Windows\SysWOW64\java -Xmx1000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate 4374896728976893465736 1 1600000 1000 4

Just PM'd the dev. I will keep you updated on his response.

Well that happened quick.

I am pretty sure that the pledges will easily hit 25,000 or higher.

All you guys out there with logo creating skills should start working on it  Wink

Hey can we seriously get a multipool?

We need that and coinmarketcap to add us.

Multi pool will add nice buy pressure. I can also use my mining rig for more BURST =D

The multipool isn't necessary at the moment, but coinmarketcap is. I sent them a tweet and will send them a suggestion/request on the forum.

Anyone have a url link for the logo? Need it for sending a request for coinmarketcap.

Speaking of logo. Is that the one we are going with?

I know the dev hasn't premined anything for bounties but I am thinking a community bounty for a logo contest is a great idea.

I will pledge the first 5,000

We need a logo that is voted on. (Even though I personally like the current one)



I'll throw 5k in on the bounty. Smiley

That's a good idea. Maybe pm the dev to put that on the OP or make a separate thread for it.
