I mine VTC. Someone must do the hard work  Grin

lol, i'm mining also. and i quit some quite profitable multipools in order to mine for VERTCOIN.

same here Cheesy

also we jumped over few other coins on coinmarketcap, If I remember, yesterday VTC was on 50th place,
today it's on 43rd place, and demand on coinedup is 12 BTC, really nice numbers, keep it UP.

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.

When I clone and unzip the source, the uncompressed files are all executable (linux: chmod +x is applied to all files). Basically,  malicious executable programs could be hidden somewhere -- anywhere -- in the source. There is no reason for these files to be executable in the first place.

Ah, now I understand. Yes, I see that too now - sorry about this, I'll ask @vertcoin to fix this next time I talk to him (I don't have access to push to the official git)

with such low hashrates you may want to choose low difficulty coins, less liquid, with higher profitability than doge and ltc.

middlecoin and other pools may be forced to main only the high hashrate / diff altcoins.

Hi,

Just found out about this coin, looks interesting.

I seem to be making around $5/day pointing my 280x at middlecoin.com these days.

How much would I be making, using an exchange rate of 0.00045 BTC, with the modded cgminer for Vertcoin ?

I just want a ballpark figure here.

Thanks.


15 - 20 VTC per day, at curent diff. really ballpark figure. btw, middlecoin is not efficient for such low hashrates. They must mine doge and litecoin, there's no much choice for their huge numbers.


Real newbie here, please enlighten me as to why Middlecoin would be inefficient for me ?  Are you saying I should be using pools with lower total hashrates ?  If so, please explain why ?  I've looked at Multipool, Hashcows, Middlecoin, and frankly thought I should go with Middlecoin exactly because it had the highest pool hashrate, and so must be the one solving the most blocks ?  Then again, my contribution would be such a small fraction that for this reason I'd be better off elsewhere ?  Moving to vertcoin, but still I want to wrap my head around this :-)

Tks.

How come is everything in the wallet source code is given execution permission? Very fishy/unprofessionnal. Going to run this in a isolated VM untill this is cleared up.

What do you mean by "execution permission" - it's an executable???

I'm not talking about the precompiled binaires. I would never install such binaries unless the altcoin in question is very respected and established.
I'm talking about the source.

When I clone and unzip the source, the uncompressed files are all executable (linux: chmod +x is applied to all files). Basically,  malicious executable programs could be hidden somewhere -- anywhere -- in the source. There is no reason for these files to be executable in the first place.

You'll get about 20VTC/day at current difficulty, so about 0.009 BTC at 0.00045 BTC/VTC. Come and try out http://vtcpool.co.uk

triax - good point. Also, liquidity premium needs to be considered.

arent those graphs a bit silly? isnt 1mh on VTC is a lot more power than 1mh on DOGE?

Sorry about the terrible choice of colours :p


Here is the profitability in btc/day for 1 mhash of scrypt performance on doge and vertcoin (for vertcoin its roughly equivalent to 500khash).

Edit: fixed scaling
