So, I have hopped onto mining it, and seems to be doing well... although this recent change to the Yen irks in having to do another transaction from XCN to CNY to BTC. I have been to Nova Exchange as well, but the volume is very low.
So with that said/typed, with the mining, seems only Suprnova is the only open mining pool available and as such, I am getting a number of disconnects. Seems the efficiency as mining there is about 80%, sometimes, as low as 60% if I don't check my computer often.
As such, I am attempting at creating a mining pool for XCN, and looks fine, but my problem is trying to compile the XCN Wallet in Linux via CLI. I think I got it installed correctly, but I cannot verify it. And given some of the documentation has not been updated with the newer Linux versions, adds some difficulty.
If there is some recommendation or steps of compiling the wallet, via Linux with command line, that would be helpful. I haven't read all of the 67 pages, but if there is mentioning it of how to, would be great.
Once getting that wallet installed, the rest seems rather straightforward (for the most part). I think with the current server build I am using, I should be able to support 15 miners at household size (ie: mining from the house and not data centers), assuming my calculations are correct. If I do get this running (if, if, if...), I will share the process of a "How To" pool for XCN in this thread.
Hello,
There are some issues with making a pool. The getblocktemplate method is different than the current standard.
Nevertheless, compiling the wallet on linux is pretty straightforward, there is no magic, just do it as with any other coin.
