[ANN][YAC] Ubuntu PPA Stable releases

ppa:yacoin/yacoin

Code:
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:yacoin/yacoin
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install yacoin-qt
sudo apt-get install yacoind

** Warning to all current Ubuntu Yacoin users
This repository uses LibDB 4.8 from the Bitcoin PPA to compile the binaries and uses it to open the wallet database.

Your own github source compiled yacoin-qt might have created a wallet with libDB 5.1. In that case the wallet will not open with this version.

If you migrate to using this PPA Yacoin client, you need to create a new wallet and use the old client to send your YACs to the new wallet.
(or you can dumpprivkey and importprivkey if you know how)

Backup your wallet.dat before trying any new software
Code:
cp ~/.yacoin/wallet.dat ~/.yacoin/wallet.dat.bak

Current things under development:

1. Update yacoin.org with latest builds for all platforms
  • Windows
    • 32bit
    • 64bit
  • Mac
  • Linux
    • Binary.tar.gz
    • Ubuntu PPA
  • Source

- I would hope Windmaster would call his source official.
- I'd like to see updated Windows builds from mikaelh or hanzac and call them official.
- crendore built the latest known Mac build. I'd like to see a new one.
- I'm trying to provide a Ubuntu PPA. If it fails someone with more skills can join in.
- I guess someone should research gitian.org for the bitcoin way to build stuff.

2. Run a poll on the official name for YAC
  • Yet Another Coin
  • Your Alternative Coin
  • Your Alternative Currency
  • ...

3. Run a design contest for Logo, Coin, Icon, Favicon
  • Y theme
  • YAK theme
  • Coin theme

Oh Cool. Thanks for update   Cheesy

Is there a YAC miner for nVidia GPUs (or cudaminer for YAC)?

Not at the moment.

Hm.. is it just me or is the difficulty not adjusting high enough for the current hash rate?

If you go back to N value of 1 it's something like 83 Ghash on the network right now and we're only at a diff of 0.933. That's an insane amount of hash rate for a scrypt based coin.


But YAC's N  has never been 1.

wow. hashrate went from 40 to 80 Mh/s in 48 hours. it's good to see difficulty is going back above 1. One thing I hope is that coinbase transaction amount decreases over time like it has for PPcoin because that gives investors confidence I think. but with the N changes of YAC and difficulty crashes we have seen the opposite.

Yacoin just passed Digitalcoin in market cap. =3


Yep, and fairly stable at just over $100k market cap as well. Two big milestones for YACoin. Smiley

Yacoin had already achieved both of these milestones before... but still all good things right now!

Can anyone provide a list of peers that accept inbound connections? I'm having a hell of a time finding any. Also, my client doesn't seem to be able to connect to the IRC server when it starts up. (I have the p2p port allowed through on my firewall).

since the ori dev disappeared, why not this ongoing development team, especially Windmaster start a new coin with well maintenance?

Opinion is directly proportional to how much of other coins they hold.

I have been tipping a few people on reddit but got responses like "yacoin is just a stupid worthless altcoin" and was downvoted a bit. Looks like the public opinion of YAC is not so great. :c

Whats your opinion on creating and distributing Ubuntu debs for Yacoin? Does the unofficial "official" ubuntu package need libdb-4.8 or can I compile it with latest libraries?
