The old ones I already have, my intention to download the new one it's because it said that have instructions on how to configure the solo mining xP

Note: This MEGA isn't working as well, it says "Temporary Unavailable"

Mega seems fine to me just now, maybe you have a bad/old browser, try Chrome or Opera. Mining tutorial: http://forum.bbqcoin.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5

That link seems to be down for the moment.

You can use one of these:

CaptChadd's https://mega.co.nz/#!ucIx3RAS!LpDLKjCLbn8ey4GJTQg5l2R8oeM5lVkXZ15vWB2XUe8  (new version with latest cosmetics)
FuzzyBear's http://95.138.187.100/bbq.zip  (older version without latest cosmetics)

Well, BQC is using scrypt which is FPGA and ASIC resistant atleast for the foreseeable future. So incase some company really delivers massive amounts of ASIC miners to people, and Bitcoin's difficulty skyrockets you can still mine these new, less popular chains with your old GPU's and even with CPU.

I still don't understand, even after looking at through the website. Why is it called BBQ? Is it because there is so much heat generated by the inefficient use of CPU resources that you can cook meat on it?

I'm pretty sure it was originally called that as a joke.  Nothing more.  Nothing less.  No real reason behind it.

Will someone please explain how these coins are different from Bitcoin, and why they are called "BBQ" coins?

Thanks!


All that I can say is that is 99% a LTC clone, and actually there is no reason to they be called BQC/BBQCoin, probably because Cubox loves BBQ with some bacon.
