that is my pool and it is not logging test blocks it is on the main chain


I was referring to your past blocks. You clearly did prior to block 47467, since it contradicts monerochain.info. It's better to remove them.

Can someone explain the HUGE increase in difficulty since the coin was added to Poloniex.  The difficulty went from 275 to 108,019,043 in a little over a day!!  How is that possible?  The normal excuse is, "ooh well interest was sparked and we added new miners".  You added 392,796 times more miners in a little over a day?!? This coins isn't the easiest to mine and you're average miner is running crap CPUs because they are focused on GPU mining.  This is the type of growth you see with GPU.

I'm really interested in the coin but this explosive growth is really bothersome.  I'd like to get some feedback.

That pool site is probably logging test network blocks, which would correspond to a separate chain, not the main Monero chain.

Anyone else think it's weird that the OP only has 8 posts?  

Is he/she the main developer?

Thats cause he post with his main account

Which account is that?

OP is just a shared account with the password known by multiple people so that any of them can update it as necessary. The main developers are tacotime, smooth, NoodleDoodle. Some needs are being contracted out, including zone117x, LucasJones, and archit for the pool, another person for a Qt GUI, and another person independently looking at the code for bugs.

Does each core from one CPU collaborate together on hashing or each core work on their own for solo mining?

Each thread/core works on its own. For example, it is fine to use multiple instances of simpleminer (a single threaded application), up to one for each hardware thread.

ohh Sh#$# i have 24 phisical cores an runing only a simpleminer instance


You might want to get on that, My 24 is pushing about 400h/s

Oh crap. And I thought my 20h/s over six cpus was nice. Guess i am only running off 1 thread each chip. Sacrebleu.

Error: failed to load wallet: invalid password

I can't remember setting a password for the wallet, tried all my pws. It is an "old"
bitmonero wallet with 100 coins (last updated on 2014-04-29), perhaps not compatible with monero? Or did I just lose my password?

Bumping this cause I had (have) the same problem. I'm absolutely positive I did not set a password for my wallet but it will not reopen. I mentioned it earlier in this thread but there was no reply, but now I'm thinking maybe I'm not alone. Really not sure what's happening and it's not a big deal for me personally since I didn't have many coins in my wallet, but still it is pretty frustrating.

The wallet is as good as gone. Sorry guys.

Just started mining this, liking it so far, my rigs gpus have been mining for a longtime and now my cpus can get in on the action. Not a single wasted computing cycle, because ain't nobody got time for that.

Good approach. CPU coins and GPU coins can be very complimentary.

When doing this it is usually best to reduce the priority on your CPU coin BTW (using nice or the Windows equivalent) and/or reduce threads by one or two.




Thank you for the tip. not really sure what i'm doing, pointed 7 cpus to extremepool.org using that easyminer program. all Fx-6300 cpus.. they arent beasts by any measure of the imagination but it's better than nothing. extremepool says my hash rate is 19.27 H/s is that any good?

I don't know. We need a volunteer to maintain a mining hardware comparison, but I don't think anyone has stepped up to do it yet.


We just need a public google doc like this: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hTOUdJZrKqrNDXTIbXgNvJtj_fnpECREcs-eHxaGrZc/edit?pli=1#gid=256771159
being linked in the official website help

As long as it doesn't get vandalized, sure.
