Must have a massive solominer moved in (or a private pool) - has anyone else noticed that the network hashrate is much more than the sum of the pools...

Network hashrate growing and price rising on CoinedUp, now around the 0.000085 BTC mark. Market depth looks set for further price rises too, lots of support on the buy-side and very little depth to the sells at these prices:

Who is the crazy guy that bought so much VTC he raised price for 6000 to 8700?  Grin

Oh, and I am running vertcoind at 207.255.42.202:5889 with 30 incoming connections.  I suppose that must be the maximum.  How to increase it?

I think vertcoin.conf can take a maxconnections=N option. As I understood it, the default in bitcoind was 125 connections in total, and 8 outbound, so you should probably be getting more than 30 unless @vertcoin has changed the default inbound connection limit. Thanks for running a node.

... i think the CPU part should be clarified. It induces people with cpu's to think they can actually mine Vertcoin at this point, when that's really not the case.  If it is a strategy to bring more people into the coin, it will only backfire when disgruntled CPU folks realize its not working for them. ...

Well, I still have this file on my system:

-rw-rw-r--. 1 zeta11 zeta11 11183317 Jun 26  2011 /home/zeta11/Downloads/bitcoin-0.3.23-linux.tar.gz

and I greatly regret that I never actually unpacked and used it.  So I am taking my 4.07 vertcoins after one day happily and just wish I did that in 2011.

OP UPDATED WITH NEW WALLET BUILD

Please can everyone update their wallet using either the links in the OP, or at http://www.vertcoin.org to help out with making sure new users wallets can sync quickly, and smooth the process as the VTC network grows.

Just a reminder. Please update your wallet, as the seed nodes are getting overloaded.

ok good enought for me Q2 : why cant i increase TC? or what is max tc this miner supports?

TC should be about 70% of whatever you use for normal scrypt coins. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/the-big-vtc-vertcoin-settings-thread-416572 has a lot of information, please contribute there with your GPU type, working settings and hashrate achieved once you're up and running.

Websense ThreatSeeker   Malicious site??

just downloaded the zip.. but wtf..

It's a false positive. Why I don't know - if you look at the virustotal links, you'll see that 50 out of 51 "site analysis" came back clean, and if you click the "go to downloaded file analysis" to look at vertcoin-setup.exe itself, it will show that all 47 of 47 scans came back clean.

Interesting coin.
Does this coin have the feature proof-of-stake Huh or only proof-of-work?

http://www.followthecoin.com/interview-creator-vertcoin/

We have our latest interview up, with the creator of Vertcoin!

Should anyone wish to donate to someone who mines ~20 a day on a laptop, our site's donation address for VTC is Vh8kGTjVwjQaBHu5qLy15o7vu7hhFHsAdf

 Cool

Its a nice interview, but i think the CPU part should be clarified.
It induces people with cpu's to think they can actually mine Vertcoin at this point, when that's really not the case.
If it is a strategy to bring more people into the coin, it will only backfire when disgruntled CPU folks realize its not working for them.

Seems like there are other valid things to talk about, and i for sure would feel a lot better if that CPU talk went away. From my point it will do more harm then good.

Or just write the passwords down on a piece of paper  Grin

Yes I'd advise everyone to start using either roboform (paid) or dashlane (free) and use a different password everwhere.  Cool

Or, if you're not a fan of having things installed on different machines and want to remember the login when you're on the road, coming up with a simple FORMULA for a password is much more efficient than using the same password on every site. It doesn't have to be rocket science, either. The key is that using the same password on multiple sites won't work, and almost anyone trying to steal it will stop at that point, and not examine it to see if they can crack the code.

Even at the simplest method of doing it, it's MUCH better than using the same password on every site.

For example, pick a word/phrase you'll remember, like the city you were born. (From this point all this info is made up for me =P.)

Atlanta

Then pick a date that you'll remember. Maybe a birthday, or an anniversary. Add those numbers together. Let's pretend the birthday is January 1, 1980. (1-1-1980). You'd come up with

Atlanta1982.

Then take the URL of the site you're making the password on. Let's say ESPM.com. Take the first and last letter of the URL (E + M) and assign their numeric value. E = 5, M=13. Multiply those two numbers (65). Take that, and multiply it by the original number. 128830. So now, your password for this site might be

Atlanta128830

The same formula for Luckyminers, and it would be

Atlanta618384

It doesn't even need to be that difficult. The key is, come up with something YOU can remember, that you can use on multiple pools in place of re-using a throwaway password.

Hi vertcoin community Cheesy

Hoping to get the most out of my 7970 towards vert. I've tried searching the forums to no avail. Can anyone suggest a good config? I get 730kh/s using cgminer on normal scrypt coins using

Quote
cgminer --scrypt --gpu-memclock 1500 --gpu-engine 1050 --thread-concurrency 8192 --intensity 13 --worksize 256 -g 2 -v 1 --lookup-gap 2 --auto-fan -o stratum+tcp://pool:1234 -u Crackmacs.x -p x


This only gives a 100-300

thanks!!
