I just sent the following message to pooler, admin of litecoinpool.org. Asking him for help identifying the pool that used to mine on this coin...

Hi pooler / [ANN][USC] readers ('open letter'),

I'm the creator of UnitedScryptCoin, a scrypt coin that can be merge mined with LTC for free.

Our difficulty has been racked up to 225, probably by a pool. This pool seems to have stopped mining our coin, leaving the blockchain dead in the water.

I would like to know which pool it is/was.

Since you have a nice hashrate breakout on your pool's website, I'd like to ask you to help me with this.

Said pool mines to LajyQBeZaBA1NkZDeY8YT5RYYVRkXMvb2T, LTC block 473042 was mined by this pool.

Can you help me identifying pool?

On a side note: would you be interested to merged mine this coin alongside USCLTC?

Unfortunately, pooler was unable to help us. Anyone know which pool generated this block? If you are with a pool, please check the statistics page to see if block 473042 was mined by your pool.

Wow the difficulty is high, we are currently at about 80% the speed we should be. Any chance you might consider changing the difficulty algo? Also have you contact any exchanges to try and get your coin listed?

Also I just noticed I am having trouble syncing my wallet and it has been stuck at block 22313 for about half a day now, I even deleted the blockchain and tried to download it again and still it gets stuck on the same block  Cry

i just tried, same with me

curious as to what the issue is, maybe the giant pool stopped mining?
Hmm I forced it to rebuild the block data base and now I am synced up and at block 22330 atm

As can be seen on the block explorer: there were no new blocks for a time. Probably because the large pool (10% of LTC) stopped mining USC for a couple of hours.

This coin definitely needs to become more integrated, but that will only happen once an exchange picks it up that way pool ops will want to have an extra source of income + will be a reason to attract miners so we need to get this on an exchange in order to get people to pay attention to this or else it won't be worth their time.

Is anyone trusted willing to run a Giveaway thread? I would donate 150 USC. I cant right now due to lack of time.

Also im interested in a public pool for merge mining this! Of cause merged with one or even some of the mayor crypto currencies ( should be listed at http://coinmarketcap.com/ ).
Maybe we should start a bounty for that?  I would be willing to throw in some USC...



my offer is still valid  Wink


OP please update the first post with some data like blocktime, blockreward over time, total blocks...  (Data is already known, but new people with interest should have it easier.)

Any plans on getting this on an exchange? It must be extremely popular because the difficulty is already at 195 but no one here is really talking about it and I don't see anyone really trading it.

The coin is still very young, and most >95% of the blocks are generated by the same entity. The parent coinbase almost always pays to
Code:
OP_DUP OP_HASH160 aa3750aa18b8a0f3f0590731e1fab934856680cf OP_EQUALVERIFY OP_CHECKSIG
,
which is Litecoin address LajyQBeZaBA1NkZDeY8YT5RYYVRkXMvb2T. Probably a pool, which pool is it? We should probably ask this pool to advertise they are mining USC and share it with their users.... (for example litecoin block 1cbe5cf12497add684aeab2be976695a531b238476412ae992b627f4c2bbb51c is used to mine USC block da40a636f943ab8c9254a99fbd3509e2f2b44f3db4a6f494925971c1ccef25bf, see the output of unitedscryptcoind getblock da40a636....)

Yesterday, this large miner stopped mining for some time, and the blockrate of USC dropped to 1 block per hour (while 24 blocks are the normal amount).

We need more distribution of hashrate, and large pools that advertise they are mining USC and share it with users.

I expect this coin to be on an exchange within 6 months, if not, I will probably build an exchange myself.

I did notice that the difficulty seemed to hang for a while so that would explain it. Thanks for the response.

It's funny, most junkcoins get a ton of attention right after an ANN thread and USC seems more like Fight Club... the first rule of USC is you don't talk about USC. I think you've really built something amazingly innovative for scrypt, a lot more than most coins. I imagine once it hits an exchange, it will be quite valuable. Just look at Namecoin.

Sorry if these questions have already been asked and answered:

How hard is it to apply the merged mining patch to other scryptcoins and to coins using other algos like YAC and QRK and their clones, would those builds be valid to the network and how many people are doing this already?

If you apply the merged mining patch to some coin, you create a hard fork in the network. One fork that accepts merge mined blocks and one fork that doesn't. Merged mined blocks are only valid if the maintainer says so and the community of the corresponding coin agrees.

Thats great  Smiley Bounty paid (adc07eb25f27b6006ad5edeb62f03bebfc08c0cb4bd969bae973450e044c8802). I will add your proof to the announcement.

thanks, received!

btw, what is the block time target?

2.5 min, just like LTC.

Feel free to find other parent chains. The is no 1 per person limit. (only 1 per blockchain and 10 in total).

ill just run the client in my pools and any merged coins ill use to do a giveaway that we can keep an always running giveaway

That would be okay, IF you inform your users. It would be bad to use their hashingpower to generate coins they can't get.

Maybe you can make USC optional. Every user that does not supply an address, loses his/her coins to you.

Interesting, I was thinking few days ago is this possible to make. Glad to see it could, and hope it will work good.
