Here is a new link for an updated bootset:
https://mega.nz/#!aUNnzSKI!YRKaNzclISx77HrFgRWL_-U2XCGyyHOIiUUSWhy8CCI. The other link was 4 months behind.
With the old bootset, it took me about 30 hours to sync with an i5. It's definitely something that needs to be addressed in the near future. The issue is that it takes too long to perform the scrypt-chacha hashes, especially for lower end CPUs. I think a clever trick can be made to verify previous blocks without doing a chacha hash of each one.
I don't think NFactor19 favors 1080tis at all. From what I've gathered, it favors CPU processing much more than any GPU. You can also mine YAC with a 1050ti, and the 1050ti has a low price point. Also, the power usage on GPUs are extremely low compared to other algos, which has a good value proposition for miners who want to roll back their power usage but still mine a coin profitably.
Hi,
No idea where you got those ideas from, but last time i checked, the price was 14 sats, or $ 0.001 a coin. Now a 1800x maxed out generates 1 block (1 coins) about every 1-3 days, so you make $0.01 every 1-3 days...a 1060 6gn pulls double the hash of the 1800x, for a similar power draw, so i stand by my comment. This coin is at NF19 is only for 1080ti guys who have very cheap power.....but actually, unless you pay zero for your power, its not even worth it to them.
Don't get me wrong, i would love for this coin to succeed, but since it seems to be relying on only miners who dont pay for their power, then its already dead....
I have been looking for its total mineable coins, and i can't find that figure, at least if say it was limited to X 1000's of coins, it might be "rare" (like 42 coin, etc) but if this exact format i really dont see how it has a chance above the other 2300 crpyto coins out there.
As i said i will keep throwing a little hash at it, but without a lowering of diff or a pool, it really is a dead cause....but, lets hear from the rest of the community, cos i have no idea whats right or wrong, so come on community, what suggestions do you have?
Mine is randon NF factors from NF12 to NF17. (at least at NF12, cpu miners might get a block or 2)
BTW, if you are mining more that 1 block a day on a regular basis, please tell me how, cos i maybe, its just me (i'm in the UK, and sometimes lag over here kills solomining and even with 2-3 times the entire nethash, you still dont win blocks)....but ideally i dont see any point in mining any coin that generates less that $0.1 a day, when my power costs to do that are generally $2-5 a day (depends on algo, etc), it makes far more sense to simply buy the coins....i know thats not popular, buts its a simple truth.
As for the chain, well, it literally needs 1 seednode and 1 miner on a celeron, so long as "someone" mines it, with even the lowest possible hash, the chain will be absolutely fine.
As for listing it, have you tried Yobit? I know their rep sometimes isnt the greatest, but i use them a lot, and if you take the rough with the smooth, overall, especially for "older" coins like this, they can be very useful....just an idea.
