**Due to MinCoin having one minute blocks, make sure you set your miners to request work at least every 30 seconds**

Pool Address: vircurpool.com
Port:8337

Example cgMiner command line:
cgminer --scrypt -o http://vircurpool.com:8337 -u worker.1 -p x --expiry 10

Hi, congrats with this.
I used the above instructions, but:
- CPU does not do anything, GPU is mining using CGminer. I want the CPU to mine for LTC it reaches 48kh/s (2600k I7)
- I have a 6950 card, and a hash rate of about 8-15kh/s, seems low?
- Half of the shares are rejected (time-too-old)

If I am doing something wrong, can you explain how to fix it?

And congrats on the pool working well vipah seems there are 50 people mining it atm with combined hash of 20MH/s . Payouts work as expected I donated some MNC to you.

BTW I would advise using Reaper instead of CGminer. I get about 25% faster hashing and much less stales. The hash rate matches the pool now and is much faster.

Anyone else not able to connect to server? My hash dropped from a few thousand to 300 and all my miners say cannot connect to server all of a sudden, but it looks like it's not really affecting anyone else according to the pool stats.


Not sure what might be going on there. I haven't had any connection problems with the pool.
Seems to be humming along and building up steam nicely  Grin
Might want to stop buy the IRC channel #mincoin next time and see if Vipah is around
and he can look into it for you Wink

I will let Vipah know when he comes online, if he does not find out before hand.

i was getting 300 when my cards was running on old motherboards, then i swapped to a new one and got 1700+
Almost seems it needs more bandwidth on the pci-express bus Smiley but haven't checked it out so close yet.

Hmmm I just changed it and they seem to have gone away. What's this option do exactly?

Since the blocks are only a minute long, this asks for work more often, so you turn in valid work for the current block.

Ah I see that makes sense. cgminer seems to have a long period between getting work for some reason.

Hi thanks for making the pool. In cgminer I get a couple of (time-too-old) messages when I'm mining at your pool, is there something I can do to fix this?

You need to play with the expiry flag.  If you using CgMiner...try --expiry 10

This ^^^

Also, make a batch file and put the expiry in it. I tried doing it directly once cgminer was running and it didn't work for me.

Vircurpool - 3% Fee - Stratum

What is MinCoin?

MinCoin (MNC) - a minimalist version of Bitcoin optimized for CPU mining using scrypt as a proof of work scheme.

MinCoin now produces 2MNC per block and will for about 10 years, producing ONLY 10 million coins total, half as much as Bitcoin and 8 times less than LiteCoin.
This makes each MinCoin much more rare than even Bitcoins.

  • Only 10 million coins total will be generated
  • 1 minute block targets for ultra fast transactions
  • To encourage early adoption block values for first 3 days are :- 500 MNC, 100 MNC, 50 MNC
  • After first 3 days block value will be 2 MNC per block until all coins mined which will take roughly 10 years
  • Retargets 2 times a day
