YBCoin is no longer going to be a scrypt chacha coin so expect some of the miners to come either to yac or utc.
http://www.ybcoin.com/wp-content/files/New_YBCoin_Whitepater_V2.72_en.pdf

Ahhh, there is the whitepaper. Can someone much smarter than me explain a couple things... it isn't a fork right? It is a new YBCoin that can be exchanged with the old YBCoins, but people can still mine the old blockchain, right?

Is the entire switch supposed to occur by the 24th of November? Some of this info is lost in translation http://www.btc38.com/altcoin/ybc/4909.html

Virtual PoW just means a multipool with subsidies paid out to miners? People will always try to come up with schemes that they swear are win-win situations, creating value out of nothing. I like multipools, but they should be viewed for what they are: a marketing gimmick. What has fascinated me recently is the trend now toward centralization, to a single point of failure in the crypto-world.

Either way, I'd say this is incredible news for the future price of YAC. More miners equals higher difficulty equals lower PoW block reward. UTC isn't really comparable since it is at a different NFactor and the way the pools are setup, you are guaranteed to lose at least 3% of mining rewards.

This is interesting news.   btw - did we ever make a whitepaper for YAC?  I know there was some discussion about it before.

Should we start one in GitHub?

Yes, Github would probably be a good start. As far as I've seen, no one has started one yet.

Try with older drivers(13.12).

This.  very much this.  If the config from the ultracoin site launches on your card, you will not get HW errors unless you're using drivers beyond 13.12. 

Best GPU for the money for mining YAC is still the R7 240 4GB sapphire card.  $70 card nets 365 -370 Hash/sec, and works perfectly fine with 1x risers.

As for how much one is making in a day, right now is _not_ a good time to determine that - the difficulty is still adjusting to the new network hashrate and hasn't hit its equilibrium value yet - look for it to hit ~90-100. 

Anybody tested r7 240 2gb? it's difficult to get the 4gb versions around here lately...

It seems coins got to the destination address:

http://explore.grokonet.com/?address=Y6VGzRr3c7HKkQT2kcGc3oYZPmvrj6Nypj
http://explorer.yacoin.net/address/Y6VGzRr3c7HKkQT2kcGc3oYZPmvrj6Nypj

Perhaps transaction wasn't accepted in the block right away.

Anyway you should contact bter if transfered funds aren't listed in your balance.

I couple of questions....

*bump*  Anyone else having problems?  I switched to yac.m-s-t.org because I was having problem with the other pools.  Now I'm down to about 2% of my usual earnings....  I'm thinking about trying to find another pool in the morning....


Yea, I was having the same issue, but it seems to be working now?

The hashrate has skyrocketed the past few hours. Over 200 khash/s is crazy considering what the best one graphics card can get. I'm wondering if there is a multipool out there that is on YAC? I say it's definitely a good thing if that is the case...

Has anyone else been having connection issues with yac.m-s-t.org?  I looked at my 'unconfirmed balance' (ie coins mined in the last 520 blocks) and it was much lower then normal.  I looked at a few of the miners, and they all have some kind timeout/connection error.

Code:
[2014-11-05 13:17:10] Stratum connection timed out
[2014-11-05 13:17:10] Stratum connection interrupted

[2014-11-05 13:21:16] stratum_subscribe timed out
[2014-11-05 13:21:16] ...retry after 30 seconds


And any chance of getting this fixed?


It looks like the faucet on the website is down.... https://faucet.yacoin.org/

And I think I'm overly excited, but any NEW updates on the next wallet version?  Its been a few weeks...


I'm hoping to have a testing version of 0.4.5 out in the next week. This will only be going out to the dev team initially though, but it should be ready for overall testing within the next month.

Just wondering how this is going.   And what features it may include.  Smiley

Going well. I've been a bit short on free time for the past two weeks, but for the most part everything is ready. I don't want to mention any features yet though until testing is complete.

More updates soon Wink

I love the suspense. I love the vibe of YACoin: like a lion lying in the weeds, ready to pounce Smiley

PoW has always been so steadily profitable, especially relative to other coins, and PoS is already starting to be a worthy endeavor. I admire the balance--long-term!

Free Publicity For Your Biz, Coin, Product, or Svc

When it's from someone who offers it to every single alt-coin, I would personally pass on it. 
Now, if someone who really believed in YAC offered free publicity - that would be a whole different story. 

There are 1100+ coins, we targeted 50 coins to make a direct offer to, of that amount we have only reached out to 30 coins so far --
that means YAC was one of our top 30 favorite coins. 

While you personally question our intentions the offer is ticking away.


My hope is, if or when your coin has any such offer that you/they would feel comfortable enough to come to EMC2 to share it with us
because we certainly would not pass it up.

If you have a press release about YACoin and want us to publish it, we will.
If you have an article about YACoin and you want us to publish it, we will.

If you want to have a small size banner advertising YACoin in our publication we could do that too.


ALL OF THE ABOVE ABSOLUTELY FREE!!!   well at least for the month of NOVEMBER -- who passes up on free publicity?
