Cool! Found a couple blocks already.  When someone has an address, let me know and I'll send ya some!

try to this address: 265-75

Is there built-in mining functionality for some quick testing?

Sadly the only GPU miner that does solo mining won't work on my 6950. ;(

No that was removed a few builds ago.

can anyone give me a small guide on how to mine, i want to help/test Grin

Refer to the main PascalCoin thread, it has links to the miners

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-pasc-pascalcoin-true-deletable-blockchain-v3-hardfork-on-block-210000-1583719

and where to get the miner and bat file?

Runs great!  Can we test mining with it?  If so, do the miner programs that work with Pascal work with PascalLite?
Yes please mine away and yes the same miners work just like in PascalCoin

I had to make the diff start at 24XXXXXX because the original diff of 19XXXXXX was re-targetting too slowly and someone could of easily mined 1000s blocks before it evened out at 300 seconds.


24XXXXXX is basically equivalent of 250MH/s per 300 seconds.


If your blocks mature do a test send to someone.

Will any of the pool version work as well?  Nano or Suprnova

EDIT: Got v.01 to work!

how about Pcash? PascalCash

cpu only mining this will make my gpu rigs mine pascal coin..and cpu mine Pcash

I like that name.  Cool but sounds so close to vcash and zcash. Don't know if that's good or bad.

TEST VERSION IS READY! (Windows Only)

https://mega.nz/#!m99QEbrZ!frsr7jlO2rz0Yk_1PtB8DVJrzVS4dQMyaB7rZgOI5sU

PLEASE HELP ME DEBUG ANY ERRORS!

If all goes well the MAIN LAUNCH will be VERY SOON!

No Source Code yet because I am still making changes. Source Code will be released during offcial Main Launch.

You have to trust me that there are no viruses, run on VirtualBox/VMWare if you don't trust me.

Alright, I still have no idea how to generate the genesis block so I will leave that till later, maybe some other dev can figure it out.

So basically I crossed off that line in the source code that checks the genesis block, no idea what the dangers of doing this is. There are no checkpoints in the source code that I can find.

Basically the genesis block is "0x01"



Here is a preview of the wallet.

Basically I had to reduce the block reward to 50 since besides the name/logos everything else was identical to Pascalcoin.

I'm excited about this! Wish I could contribute in some way. I've got a buddy that's a really successful graphics designer. He may be able to put something together for coin branding. I'm a sysadmin/project manager, so I'm not much help on the development side. Sad I could run a node though! As soon as something is available to test, let me know!

EDIT: One thing I would like to add is I think there has been some craziness with the diff re-targeting on Pascal. Don't know if that could be improved or not.

how about pascal cash as a project name?

so basically the inovation here will be the word "lite", ok?

which brings us...

Now this is strange... still no shit clone...



Alright I had some free time to play around with the source code and such and basically I will leave the algorithm exactly as is because its very difficult to make it CPU only. I can make some small changes to the algo so you could only wallet cpu mine, but anyone with some basic programming knowledge could easily port the change into the current Pascalminers and GPU mine the coin.

Only way to make it CPU mine only is to use some CPU Prime algo computations that GPUs do poorly like HODLCoin however that's way too advanced for my level of programming because most of the entire coins code would need to be re-written.

As for the name I like "Delphi Coin" and "PascalCoin Lite" so I decided the perfect name would be "PASCAL LITE".

Here is a preview of the wallet.

Also if there are any devs here that understand the Pascal code, how do you create a new genesis block? I tried creating the new block but I keep getting the zero block error when trying to mine the Block 1. Only thing that works is using Pascalcoin Genesis block and continuing on from Block 2.

Another issue is that the daemon doesn't seem to do anything. Seems you can only host a node using the wallet. I got a AWS I can use to host the node however if the coin gets a little larger it would be nice if someone could also host a node or two.

Also for the graphics. I don't have Adobe Photoshop or anything like that. I created the logo in Paint. If someone could hack up a logo it would be nice.

A few messages me asking about Bounties, unfortunately there are none because there is no premine. If you want I can mine 100 block or so before launch and use those to pay for bounties in Pascal Lite coins. Let me know what you think.

so when is the launch date??

hes trying to figure out how to mine the genesis and 1st block

Yeah I am stuck here because if I set a hash as the genesis, then I compile, the header changes and I can't generate the same genesis hash.
The process is slightly different than the regular Bitcoin/Litecoin wallets.

I can always take a shortcut and just use the original Pascalcoin blockchain until block 2 and then fork it to Pascal lite, however I rather do it the correct way.

Looks interesting.
Better start with ready GPU miner and working pool.
