Bitcoin QT addnode
A new altcoin was released yesterday. I have not been impressed with the last 2 coins that were released (CHNCoin and JunkCoin).Here are the stats:
Block each: 60 seconds.
Block reward: 100 coins and depends on difficulty.
Hash: scrypt(N, 1, 1) + chacha instaed of salsa and keccak512 instead of sha256 (scrypt-jane implementation).
N depends on: block.nTime and increases. Starting value is 32 (4 Kbs).
Port: 7688
This coin is really interesting. You don't have to do anything to mine it at all. It is fully automated through the client. As long as you start the client correctly and you leave the client open, it will use your CPU to mine for YaCoin! Although it is tricky to start this client correctly. Follow these steps.
1. Get the wallet file and download it.
Create it in the same folder as your wallet files. Name it start.txt or something. Open the text file and copy this into it. Replace "Your local IP" with... your local IP addess.
yacoin-qt.exe -server -gen -addnode=82.211.30.212 -addnode=76.115.8.101 -addnode="Your Local IP" -addnode=54.217.249.235 -addnode=54.217.249.230 -addnode=54.217.249.229 -addnode=54.217.249.139
Save the file, then close it. Click on the file and change it to start.bat and hit enter.
3. Run the start.bat
This will open the wallet file and configure it to mine correctly. You can close the Command box that opens.
4. Find out if the wallet file is mining
- Go to Help
- Type gethashespersec
This will tell you how many hashes per second your CPU is mining!
