P2Pool (recommended) and traditional pool available for VTC

P2Pool: http://vtcpool.co.uk:9171
Traditional MPOS pool: https://vtcpool.co.uk

P2Pool setup guide and FAQ

Why use p2pool?

Mined coins are deposited directly in your wallet in the generation payment for the block,
they are never held by a pool wallet and can't be lost due to failures or hacking/thefts
Even if the node you connect to fails, you don't lose the coins you mined - your shares are distributed on the network
Distributed (less vulnerable to DoS attacks, less chance of big pools having enough hashrate to be capable of a 51% attack)
Private (you are paid with coinbase transactions and your public key is never seen on the network until you spend the funds)

Feel free to use https://vtcpool.co.uk if you prefer a traditional pool. Especially, users with lower hashrates may find earnings
are better on the traditional pool. There is room for a mixture of pool types, but please help further strengthen the decentralisation
of Vertcoin by using p2pool if it works well for you.

To mine on p2pool, use your VTC address as username, and any password, so your command line should be like:

vertminer -o stratum+tcp://vtcpool.co.uk:9171 -u Vw44xQPqgwbqZVpRzPoHe6M4jAGYceiZZP -p x

Please follow the advice in the P2Pool setup guide and FAQ about setting your minimum
share difficulty - this will prevent HW errors and stales and improve your mining income.

Do you and other devs have the plan to build wallets for portable devices?

No plans right now. I will ask around and see what everyone in the dev team knows about developing for Android/iOS.

see my profile

Is there a wish for a German translation?

I could write it IF there is a similiar bounty. Who wants to contribute?

German is more frequent here than Chinese, second language after Russian.

Check me out:

If a translation to spanish is needed i'm able to help, native speaker.

Minero, that would be great.

For anyone translating materials, I think the most important things to emphasise are:

- Vertcoin is not premined at all
- It is innovative and different and is not just another scrypt clone
- We are second in volume behind DOGE on CoinedUp
- We are listed at two exchanges already

The main materials to translate are the website (vertcoin.org), the OP and the paper linked to on the website by David Mueller that covers some of the reasons why Vertcoin is different and special.

I'd appreciate any input from other users in the thread regarding what other points they feel should be particularly emphasised in translated materials.

I can help with Russian translate and HOSTING
Got a own cloud solution and have a strong hosting. (URL http://hhdd.me ) not AD just proof ;-)
That we can use for VTC pool in Russia ... Roll Eyes

KRStwo - yes, that would be great. If you'd like to host a Russian pool, we can help you with setup - come to #vertcoin on IRC, several pool owners are there regularly, we can help you with setup for both p2pool (preferred) and MPOS (traditional) pools.

I have received two payments of 15 VTC (so whoever you were please let me know).

This was my payment: http://explorer.vertcoin.org/tx/f6ad81beee1fae3d9076a1112d021cb15f74f3fc9f88dab23a5cf5870a159ef9

I'll pass the address onto othe (who pledged 200 VTC).

TK808 has agreed to the translation, I forwarded him to Boris, figure y'all can handle it from there (I am merely a speculator)

edit- if you want me to escrow the bounty I'm fine with that too,

VsYscT2fL4J7cwLE7G4ppgPGVLZY6sHvet

or tell me where to ship my 15 I'm also fine with that.

jballs - if you are prepared to escrow, that would be great - thanks for organising this - I'm just about to check PM now and get back to TK808. I have sent my 15 VTC to the address you posted. http://explorer.vertcoin.org/tx/f6ad81beee1fae3d9076a1112d021cb15f74f3fc9f88dab23a5cf5870a159ef9

Hi Boris,

I have received two payments of 15 VTC (so whoever you were please let me know). I will round up the others momentarily. The 200 VTC pledge from your IRC is not on my map, so drop them my address if you would.

However I have discrepancy as to who is doing the work at this point, as there were multiple responses. Please check with Vertcoin (the member by that name) and make sure we're all on the same page with the work order. I have no input on that decision (as I am merely a speculator... though a heavily invested one at this point).

Thanks!

Nice. Will post shortly... Also french might be a good idea, being the vert coin and all they might like it.

Do you still need a french translation?

The new wallet with Kimotos Gravity Well and updated N-factor scheduling is now available.

THIS IS A MANDATORY UPDATE - PLEASE UPDATE YOUR WALLET NOW

We have chosen a fork height of block 26754 which should occur on or around Saturday 1st February 2014 (5 days from wallet release). Difficulty will retarget every block after this block height.

We have also backported all the fixes from Litecoin 0.8.6.2, so this release is Vertcoin 0.8.6.2

Please use the following links rather than using vertcoin.org to download the new wallet, the links on vertcoin.org
are to the new updated wallet, but it would be appreciated if you would please use the links below instead to spread
the server load.

0.8.6.2 changes

Fork to Kimoto Gravity Well difficulty adjustment at block 26754 (Around midday UTC on 1st February 2014)
Implement new N-factor schedule
Update to boost 1.55 to fix Windows connectivity issue
Fix custom build on MacOS X 10.9
Fix QT5 custom build
Update Debian build instructions
Update homebrew build
DNS seeds updated to include vtc.kilovolt.co.uk and vtcpool.co.uk
Checkpoint at block 24200

Windows installer: https://www.amazon.co.uk/clouddrive/share?s=uLJdNjcnQN4n9VbuUuZbVk

Windows QT (non installer): https://www.amazon.co.uk/clouddrive/share?s=EICOyiLjSWks3W-ZJBDaBw

Mac OS X: https://www.amazon.co.uk/clouddrive/share?s=0cyjLd8fRvIjZLFf6Y3ZWg

Source: https://github.com/vertcoin/vertcoin

Pool operators, please note that to make MPOS display the correct interval between difficulty adjustments, you will want to update /var/www/MPOS/public/include/config/global.inc.php to set

$config['coindiffchangetarget'] = 1;

please do this on fork day, at or as near to block 26754 as you can.
