I love SHA3 coins because they use so much less energy, your rig generates less heat and it places so much less wear on the mining hardware. I just wish one of the SHA3 coins would add PoS, that coin could be huge in my opinion.
How do you know what coins use less energy. Is there any table out there to know it?

That's a good question, I would be interested in such a chart/table myself.

I know SHA3 uses less energy than SHA256 and Scrypt because I have mined Bitcoin, Litecoin and MANY of their clones over the past 5+ years and when mining those coins at max intensity my GPU goes under full load, the fans work at 100%, video gets jittery and it generates so much heat that I have to actively cool my room by dropping the thermostat a few degrees which causes the rest of my house to freeze.

However, when I mine an SHA3 coin at maximum intensity my GPU seems to barely notice. The fans only kick up to 40%, the video still works fine (aside from gaming, I can continue using my computer, including watching videos on the internet) and I don't have to drop the thermostat to keep my room at a comfortable temperature. I can DEFINITELY tell that there is less energy being used and far less strain being placed on my hardware.

It's life Jim, but not as we know it...
Im having trouble downloading a wallet to store my tokens..

I left them in cryptopia but they appear to be closing your market now.

And since I can't get a wallet....

Are they lost forever or what?


Cryptopia seems unable to handle Doge and LTC markets for now. Therefore they put them on hold and asked their members to remove their outstanding orders on those base markets.

Quote
Market Closing

Due to being unable to provide any kind of realistic or accurate ETA on both the DOGE/LTC markets being resumed, we have decided it best to close these base markets at this time. Please close any open orders, and we apologize for the inconvenience


The SLOTHcoin wallet is still supported at Cryptopia though, and so your SLOTH are safe for the time being, like many others though trade has been frozen. But that is a choice Cryptopia made due to extreme demand and trying to fix their capacity needed to be able to handle all markets again. Unfortunately that means Slotcoin can not be traded against LTC and Doge at the moment.

If you want to use the Slothcoin wallet you can download them at:

http://slick.cf/coin/sloth/download/

or through the revived Slothcoin dot Org website:

http://slothcoin.org

Please be aware that it will take a while before the total blockchain is synced. There are close to 680000 blocks to be downloaded.

Hi. I put yesterday 10 dollars at 3 litoshis on Crytopia now is a 6 so 100% ROI. I put 10 dollars cause was really cheap and who knows maybe a pump could happen, now I want to know about the project is it dead?, I read a new project is doing but can I use the slothcoin to staking or something like that or should I just sell and got my %ROI
Thanks.


Well, as long as I'm here...

Slothcoin is quite alive, the project was picked up by the community around 2014/15 to move it to 2021, at least. There are many nodes connected to the network, way more than then there were 2.3 years ago when the new version 1.3(.1b3) came online. (My own node currently has between 22 and 24 connections.)

There may be Slothcoin community members that want to develope it even further, as I think I read somewhere, there is the idea to do that. The current version has POW mining only, at 4321 SLOTH reward per found block.

About selling or/and buying that is your choice to make. If it is as high as 6 lite-satoshi than that is really good news for those who hold SLOTH. Now I get why there is so much activity on the network!  Cool

Good luck, may the Sloth be with you.
Thanks for your answer

It's life Jim, but not as we know it...

At some point I decided to throw the towel in the ring. This was after I suggested to move Slothcoin to a blockchain like Bitshares. It was a suggestion, but due to some negative responses I decided to stop putting my precious time and energy into it.


If this works people will praise you in good times, and damn you in bad times. If you let the praise enlighten your ego or the damn hurt your hearth, both you and I, my friend, are in trouble

Negative responses there are going to be. Natural and unavoidable it Is. The harsher they are the more successful you were: only when it has gone really down people will go mad, and that means it has gone up at some point. Ups and downs are the way of both life and economy and, at a faster rate, coins. But happiness and sadness and anger had to be under a fierce control to be able to handle any of them.

Sloth could be stagnant for years. Most of the coins had been like that just to awake recently. It doesn’t make them good or bad choices. Most of the people want a fast, effortless fortune: is a modern fairy tale for adults. Fortune may come, but discipline, patience, time and effort have to be there first.

Find a good place/exchange were the coin could endure bad times, make it safe and alive from time to time. Keep working when business fails and friends turn back on you: it happens. When business succeeds old friends will come back and new friends will appear, even love will be at every corner. Enjoy but don’t trust, the few that remain when shadows come, those you can trust, even if you hate them sometimes.

Defeat is a good teacher if you endure it, and success could be a treachery friend, but neither is permanent, unless we decide so.


Those are very wise and true words, my friend, thank you very much.

It will happen everywhere, in every situation, I know. And sometimes it is a signal to move on, take the good memories and dear friends along. At a certain point I decided to change my direction. So far it was bumpy, new, full of challenges and with a lot to learn again but also a great time, mostly.

Thank you for your kind reply, have a good day and a nice weekend.

All the best to you and those dear to you.

Hi Slothcoin fan,

Sometimes it might be good to take the time and to actually read a thread, or two, for some members, before spreading FUD. Or share misinformation.

First of all, about the reborn Slothcoin dot org. It was only recently registered again and it is not at all looking like something that Timo made years ago.

The original Slothcoin creator Timo moved to a new project a couple of years ago. It is all in the thread for you to read. In the one Timo made and the one I made for the announcement of the community fork.

Version 1.3.1.3 is a fork of version 1.3.0.0 and has some changes. Like a lower amount of Slothcoin to be released. About 92 billion instead of a 100 billion. So, more rare, SLOTH maybe even could cripple ripple, you never know.

Also the difficulty adjustment was changed to get our beloved Slothie out off high diff more easily. As it did get stuck in the past, but after the update Slothcoin was moving Sloth and steady.

And the block reward inflation was changed in such a way that Slothcoin can be POW mined for a 4321 SLOTH reward until the year 2021. More or less.

Currently it is at block 670xxx and moving on nicely as a lot of nodes are connected. And the market price is going up. Now who would have expected that?

Now, me and other Slothies have been putting a lot of time and effort to get it on a Faucet and to promote it. Also I wanted to create a webadres to have a landing spot for the long term. As many Crypto forks have a site that works for a year and then disappears. Slick dot CF is already online for years. And I will update some info there too.

While Slotchoin dot org was dead for years, only revived apparantly since 28th of november 2017, the Slothcoin fork got a new home.

Not only did the Slothies community put time and effort in, we also gave away millions in SLOTH to spread the wealth. And there were handouts of millions of SLOTH at SteemIt dot com.

It took a lot of time and effort to get it to where it is now. That was started by Timo and moved on by the Slothies community.

At some point I decided to throw the towel in the ring. This was after I suggested to move Slothcoin to a blockchain like Bitshares. It was a suggestion, but due to some negative responses I decided to stop putting my precious time and energy into it.

But, I just can not stand it when people just spread Fear, Uncertanty and Doubt. All they have to do is take some time to read the thread(s). It is all there, also me announcing stepping back!

And the invite to the Slothies to pick it up. Looking at how it is getting mined right now tells me that it is going places. Therefore I am happy, even though I gave away most of the SLOTH I mined myself.

All those nodes connected are in consensus by the way over the right version. And that is 1.3.1.3 as is the actuall Windows executable that is shared at the renewed Slothcoin dot Org. And it is a x86 version, 32 bit and for your information, I share this about it:

File Version Information

Copyright   2009-2015 The Bitcoin developers, 2014-2015 The Slothcoin developers
Product   Slothcoin-Qt
Description   Slothcoin-Qt (OSS GUI client for Slothcoin)
Original Name   Slothcoin-qt.exe
Internal Name   Slothcoin-qt
File Version   1.3.1.3

There is no new version coming up, as far as I know. Chances are you have been using version 1.3(.1 build 3) all this time already. As it this is the third year ongoing since the fork got consensus by the Slothcoin network.

Really did not want to respond actually, but I just am very allergic to misinformation and FUD.

Who ever recently registered Slothcoin dot org again I do not know, but it does actually offer the right version for Windows: Slothcoin 1.3.1.3. and the right links.

Wish you a great new year, and may the Sloth be with you!

With kind regards,

Oldambster

You made a new thread and a new site for a coin that already has an active thread and site...? Smells fishy to me...

It's not even like that thread has a new version (Still 1.3) yet for some reason you're hosting the wallet on an entirely new website AND github (when the downloads for the ORIGINAL site and github are intact and working)...?

No thanks... My version from the official site is working just fine with Cryptopia, no need to fix what ain't broke...

TradeSatoshi seems to be about 5,000 blocks behind and Cryptopia seems to be having trouble as well since my deposit from the 18th still hasn't shown up...
