For soloing this coin, would it be the same way like every other coin?

Why there is such low volume on Bittrex ?

Because the coins that have high volume on Bittrex are usually former ICO or short POW coins, where whales and bigger investors can accumulate a huge stash and can fake/pump the volume.

We won't see really high volumes on VNL yet on Bittrex. We had 80 BTC vol during the last spike on Poloniex. I'm pretty sure we just rebound and will see the same accumulation pattern again as we have seen during the 2 weeks where we were around 4k and daily volumes ranged from 5 BTC to 15 BTC.

John is working hard to release the projects that are planned, and with the releases we will probably see higher volumes and a higher interest from investors. The coin didn't yet get the recognition it deserves with the codebase and features.

Is it possible to mine with this miner with just one GPU (od two in my PC)? How do I specify this?
No, not in this release

didn't work on 270
I know Smiley Started with hardware I have at hands

yes it is! in the .bat:
--device <0 or 1...> --remove-disabled     Smiley
you can then run a new instance of sg, cg or whatever miner on the other gpu

Can you upgrade to version where you can control intensity?
I'm affraid I'll burn my gpu with vrm1 temp at 100C

1) set lower core clock
2) move to Alaska

haha good one Smiley

if i lower core from 1070 to 1000, it goes back to default (1070) automaticaly when miner starts

Hey, nice work dev(s), just wanted to say your approach looks to be top tier. What's your plan for expansion?

Also, I just set up a new station - except this time I tried the latest AMD beta drivers, got some dynamic link library error. Should I just revert to 14.12?

According to the finished and planned features (can be viewed on the roamdap) the aim should be to become the perfect digital currency for merchant and mobile use. The staking and energy efficient wallets which will be released soon consume ~0% cpu while staking. This will reward the user and also strengthen the network. The true instant transactions coming later will also favour this concept.  The POW/POS hybrid design used here makes a 51% attack almost impossible.

Vanillacoin adresses several problems that the old Bitcoin/Peercoin codebase has and John is also working on the CoinPP project which will help Peercoin derivatives to adapt a new and better codebase for their projects.

Jump on IRC if you want to take part in the discussion.

On your second Issue I can't really help out, I'm using 14.12 currently.

Just unbelievable, real professionalism, great work dev and there will be android staking wallet also, i understand?
Yes, the Android GUI is close to completion and don't forget iOS has been completed for a few weeks now as well. The two will be deployed in tandem. Cool

Thank you for your support.

why price down?

My view on this:

Price went down to 3k after the first 8k peak, and after 2-3 weeks of accumulations now the price is around 9.6k after the peak of 22k (volume was only around 18-20k), imho this is a fine correction that will be probably followed by accumulation and higher peaks as we advance in the developments. Please consider that this is still a PoW coin meaning we have miner pressure, block rewards drop to 88 in ~1717 blocks. The roadmap and the future developments will be awesome and will transform this into a perfect crypto for the daily (mass) use.

That sounds reasonable. As milestones keep getting reached the peaks will get higher each time, so slightly lower prices is just a good time to buy more.

Great work!

I get 975mh/s with two 280x, but:
GPU temp - 85C
VRM temp 1 - 98C (?!) - how safe is that?
Probably too high, but I'm not the best person to ask such questions. Still have my old 6770 lying around and don't want to open the case, connect it and test multi-GPU config Smiley Space, power connectors and such things...
Anyway, try to lower memory clock, memory is almost not used in this algo.

BTW, the binary has kernel for 6770, I didn't test it at all, have no idea whether it works or not

If you look into the project enough you can see how big the vision is. One of the few coins that has me excited in some time!

If someone here has Windows, 280x and some taste to adventure, I released WhirlpoolX kernel wrapped in renewed host. Kernel is fast and stable, CPU host is rather ugly and not ready for real production use, whether you get extra hashpower or will waste your time is up to your luck Wink

EDIT: Warning, this release does not work with Nicehash, most probably other hash rental sites will not work too. Incompatibility is on Smelter side, Stratum implementation is too basic.

Great work!

There isn't much to be configured. User can play with worksize (64, 128 and 256) and number of threads. To flood the screen with tons of diagnostics use --debug. Before claiming that I violated GPL, take a look at 'smelter --copyrights' output. To exit, use control-C or type any letter and then ENTER.

Code:
Program options:
  -? [ --help ]           This help message
  --copyrights            Print libraries copyright message(s)
  -o [ --url ] arg        pool url (ex: -o http://pool:port )
  -u [ --user ] arg       Pool username
  -p [ --pass ] arg       Pool password
  -w [ --worksize ] arg   Worksize
  -g [ --gputhreads ] arg Threads per GPU
  -D [ --debug ]          Enable debug output

I am testing with 3 rigs of two, three, and four cards. Since you can't change any settings like intensity or see your graphics cards like in sgminer, all I can report is that it seems to work for a few minutes and then stop or start erroring low diff share.  It barely wants to run at 100% cpu on my single core rig, and my dual core rigs do better at 50% cpu use. But having to restart it all the time doesn't make it practical yet. I am in the low 80's C with default auto fan, so I assume that is acceptable.  Thanks Smolen, and if you can give us any tips or what settings we can use in the .bat, or a less buggy version in the future that would be great. Keep up the good work, see you past the Vanilla Sky.

Honestly, these bugs were the main reason to release Smiley Free version to give Smelter test run on various hardware, OS and drivers.
Stratum implementation is way too fresh, it doesn't handle corner cases well. At the beginning of session server sends low difficulty jobs, miner finds and puts into upstream queue a bunch of shares, then server rises the difficulty and refuses to accept old shares. Sometimes Smelter filters out invalid shares, sometimes not. Usually after minute or two it's clear is session failed or not.
Intensity is hardcoded in public release. If it is set too high driver hangs up entire PC and I have to turn off power supply, reset button not always works. Not a big pleasure to debug Smiley

1 x 280x, amd 15.3
512MH/s, smooth run ~1h, cpu load < 30%
all girlz around reduced their wardrobe to bikinis
(btw resets memclock to default, i can't prevent that)
Cool side effect!
Strange, miner has no code at all to mess with clocks and fans, I'll take a look at it.

Interested to see how this works out for those who own a 280x, told Jimlite on IRC to check in the miner, since he owns a few of them.
