I'm still waiting for an answer to the question...

WHY? Huh

??
Imitation is the highest form of flattery however
this is a naked attempt at usurpation.

For the lulz?

Ixcoin also help me understand better how Bitcoin started, I guess

i just use phoenix miner and point it to the ixcoind (setup the same way bitcoind is setup.)

When a block is found it shows "generated" and then once maturity is reached it adds 96 to my balance.

I can't get it to work. I'm using GUIminer and simply copied over my bitcoin.conf file then renamed it to ixcoin.conf, which contains:

rpcuser=username
rpcpassword=password
server=1
rpcport=8338

But when I start the solo miner in GUIminer I see this in the console:

2011-08-10 19:46:47: Listener for "IxcoinPHX" started
2011-08-10 19:46:49: Listener for "IxcoinPHX": [10/08/2011 19:46:49] Phoenix 1.50 starting...

I've tried 8337 as well in both the .conf file and in GUIminer. What gives? Sad

Here's what I did:

Use this guide -> http://www.newslobster.com/random/how-to-get-started-using-your-gpu-to-mine-for-bitcoins-on-windows

When it asks for the bitcoin.exe simply rename the ixcoin.exe to "bitcoin.exe" and just follow the instructions.

It will start mine, but I actually have no idea if I will receive any coins this way xD

Edit:

Yep, it works!

Well... I still got 0 credits, but at least it's showing something

Am I supposed to run the ixcoind.exe file when mining and the ixcoin.exe file when I want to see my holdings?

Cause' I mine, but I see nothing.

Well sending ixcoins to a bitcoin address = fail. There goes 116 ixc into the ether.

You should be able to claim the ixcoins so long as you still have the private key that corresponds to that bitcoin address.

LOL I do .... hehe didn't think of that.

Someone tell me why you can't spoof the blockchain while it's still small with not many nodes?

How much do you think the coins are worth, that makes spoofing the blockchain seem to you a profitable thing to do?

Not lor profit... for the lolz... duh

I can't make it work properly.

Sure it starts mining, but I can't open the Ixcoin client, so how do I receive the coins? lol

I fail... :/

There are currently ~7M (as of August 2011) in existence and it is expected that all 21 million Bitcoins will have been generated by 2033. Whereas there are currently ~580K Ixcoins (as of 10th August 2011) in existence and it is expected that all 21 million Ixcoins will have been generated by 2015. Ixcoin maturity will be reached ~18 years before Bitcoin's.

why 2015? why not make it 2012? let's get rich QUICKER.

Is it still feasible to CPU mine these solo? I only have access to my laptop right now

I'm pretty sure that the block rate on ixcoin is currently limited by latency and churn, rather than hashing power, and it will stay that way until everyone gets bored or the difficulty catches up. Could be a day or two.

To really mess with it, you'd need a lot of hashing power (but less than you'd think), and a hacked client that ignores reorgs.
