The  video part 2 stopped waiting for the results.  The end result was that yes indeed,  the block was mined by Cheetah and showed up in the wallet for 20,000 NENG reward in the 4-core CPU WIndows 10 PC shortly after the video recording ended.

Cheetah_Cpu version v1.1.3 released:
https://github.com/ShorelineCrypto/cheetah_cpuminer/releases

Support MacOS Mojave, fully tested.  Beatified the mining msg output. 
With the new testing on Mojave, it is highly likely that any macOS version between 10.11 and 10.14 would work with full node wallet and the solo CPU mining with Cheetah.

how many miners mine this coin?
I'm not sure there are many who are mining,
but in the features they have traded one of the markets and it is likely that it will be easy to get tokens by mining them.

new release v1.2.1.2.  This is mainly for supporting MacOS Mojave wallet with detailed guide and testing. There is no code change NENG core itself. https://github.com/ShorelineCrypto/NewEnglandCoin/releases/download/v1.2.1.2/newenglandcoin_v1.2.1.2_macOS_Mojave.tgz

The Mojave README file contains the guidelines for all other versions of macOS versions, OSX 10.11 or later.  This is mainly to address the issue that
downloaded dmg files would not run without proper installations of required libraries.  Several command line steps are required before the
NENG wallet can be run in macOS

Did another math calculation on the two public pools vs my own solo mining on  ASIC USB stick.  All three over past half hours have roughly same block per hashrate. This was proportional to the hashrate
mining NENG.  The explorer reported difficulty at 0.41 and total  network MH/s hashrate at 36.  

The base diffuclty has been going up and ASIC has regained dominance over GPU in this range.  This is back to typical scrypt coin that the reward is proportional to mining hash rate regardless of solo vs pool mining.  

In short, when the base difficulty is low,  the  solo or small pool mining are favored for ASIC/GPU.  When the base difficulty goes up to high enough level (at least > 0.4 diff ), the mining reward goes proportional to ASIC/GPU hashrate just like normal typical scrypt coin mining do.

CPU cheetah solo mining is excluded in this consideration because CPU cheetah mining tends to have constant performance at all range of base difficulties.

Just did a quick math on the latest  blocks on the two public pools there over past 1 hour.  The smaller pool outperforms  the big pool by 100%  on per hashrate yield over last 1 hour.  By looking at my solo mining setup for small ASIC USB stick (4MH/s) over past 1 hour, solo mining ASIC stick outperforms small pool by  100%, and outperforms big pool by 4x.

So be aware, the profit and yield from pool is not proportional to hashrate due to DynDiff algo on top of scrypts.  This is different from any other PoW mining coins we know of.
Our unique algo of NENG encourages solo mining or small public pools and decreases the impact of big pools. This itself decentralizes mining of NENG so that no single big pool is likely to be dominant in NENG mining and significantly decreases risk of 51% attack.  

It is obviously happening that ASIC/GPU miners moving rigs between the two public pools.  The miners tend to leave big pool and join smaller pool to get bigger profit and back and forth. This is sensible movement given the profitability of big vs small pool could be quite large.

Hi. I'm trying to miner and every wallet I put in the pools diz (NSD) coin

What  rigs are you using?  GPU or ASIC for pool mining?  What software are you using?

You can post config line here and someone here can help trouble shooting your mining config setup.  Scrypt mining is quite common and easy to setup for GPU or ASIC.

how many miners mine this coin?

  i'm doing OK with my 3 li'l moonlander2s   Wink

  solo from the wallet did OK too

There are lot more miners,  CPU solo miners or  ASIC/GPU  solo or pool miners now.  It is hard to know how many.
 
One anecdote was that my  cpu miner and explorer server was down yesterday for 6 hours.  But the NENG blockchain was operating normally.   NENG comes to a point that
one or two miners come or go won't affect blockchain movement at all now.   It used to be that my CPU solo miner was down, the blockchain quickly got stuck for couple of hours
because  ASIC/GPU can not churn through  without help of CPU solo miners.

i think if cpu can mine with pool, maybe miners can grow up up up!

At this moment, technically not feasible for a cpu only mining pool.

Cheetah solo mining should serve well for all the cpu miners.  Just checked my 24 hours running old linux (dual core, Ubuntu linux), it generated 380,000 NENG over last 24 hours. That is
pretty decent yield in that GPU  or ASIC miners would not mine NENG that easily.

NENG CPU solo mining on Cheetah software should work well even for very old single-CPU  desktop/laptop PC or Mac.  

For decentralization purpose,  the more solo miners, the better security for NENG blockchain.   Decentralization comes with responsibility.  At this moment,  GPU and ASIC miners can come and go without affecting normal operation of NENG blockchain because we have CPU miners.  However,  if there are no CPU miners solo mining NENG, NENG blockchain could get stuck there for hours with no blocks even if all GPU/ASIC miners are mining with high hashrate.  Therefore,  CPU miners are actually the mining backbone of NENG blockchain at current design.

Upon notification from Square, Inc, which provides Cash App,  the fiat project of buying NENG with USD cash for U.S. residents is discontinued.
