I was thinking Stay Puft, but Gozer said Grover
Eh Bytecoin.

I like my idea for a new coin much better.  Of course I would it's my idea.

The new coin is called KingCoinTM, Copyright 2013, (R).  Proof of work is complete a level of Donkey Kong that has a many floors as there are in the Empire State Building.  plus 15% of the coins value is indexed against all other digi-coins that have over $100mil market cap.

The Donkey Kong will have captchas to make sure people are playing and not bots.

Also this is KingCoin RC2 since RC1 had guess a number between 0 and 99 as proof of work.  So we have a major step forward with this release.

The Donkey Kong game has a built in AI that varies difficulty based on the player's ability, and the payouts have a funky cool algo to make sure that more experienced players cannot game the system and take over the network.

This coin will be as truly Democratic as a coin can be and be digital.  There will be none of this I have 50k to drop on ASICs or GPUs for LTC and can mine more cons than most people so I get to make more coin.  Anyone with access to the net can play King Coin, and the game saves in progress any time.

I am using GUIMiner.  I can connect to Slush or BTCGuild with bitcoin and mine ok.  I have not been able to connect to radon, pool8, or http://pool.bytecoin.in
Has anyone had success with GUIMiner and Bytecoin?

GUIMiner is incompatible with p2pool.

I know that at least radon and pool8 are p2pool, and bytecoin.in could be too.

This has been discussed already, the best solution is to just use another miner, if you can.

I remember reading that.  I could not find the posting it in several minutes of searching. 

Assuming that we want more users, and more miners, it would be good to post a summary of known working miners, pools, and sample configurations.

Is there a consensus of whether p2pool or GUIMiner is broken? 


This is a good start, add to this https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bte-the-bytecoin-information-thread-169559

Ive tried everything to get solo mining.
Any suggestions, Im using windows
my bitcoin.conf is as follows

server=1
rpcuser=username
rpcpassword=password
rpcport=4466

What should I do?




Got it handled,

The conf file needs to go in the %APPDATA% for bytecoin (it says %appdir% in the walkthrough in the beginning of this thread), and not in the directory were it unzips. Hope this helps a few people.

*Edit
New problem, Computer turns off after mining for a few minutes...
I dont think it is overheating (pretty sure its not that)
Im using guiminer opencl.
Its not just bytecoin, it was happening when i mined bitcoins too.
Any thoughts?

can someone fill me in, I heard that byte coin might be fairly invulnerable to 51% attacks with the BTC retargeting

is this true, can someone give me the rundown?  I just lost alot of faith in alternate coins from seeing my investment in terracoin cut in half with the system froze.  it was whacker than whack, but I have heard bte isn't as affected by 51% attacks is this true, can someone explain this to me real quick?

much appreciated

bte is a perfect clone of bitcoin. It has all of bitcoins strengths and weaknesses. Bitcoin can be 51% attacked so can bytecoin.

so... what's stopping asics from doing to bytecoin what they did to terracoin?  anything? 

we are the bytecoin community, you and me and a hand full of other people. So long as we understand that a 51% attack can only do very limited damage than we wont be shaken out of our position because of it. Its important to understand that a 51% attack doesnt destroy the network, it just puts it on hold for a little while. and all the time that a person is 51% attacking is costing them lots of money, so eventually the attack will end and things will return to normal.

BBQcoin had a 51% attack early in its history.  It's now ancient history.  BBQcoin is a perfectly viable coin at this point in time.

As you say, a 51% attack does not destroy the network, and can really only do limited damage.

In the future, as alt-coin supporters have more hashing power, this will be much less of an issue.
