Seemingly a stupid question: but what miner can we use to mine for this coin? Can we use our BitCoin hardware miners for this?
Check here:

Another issue:

Seems nothing is working on port 5057?

Dude, the coin isn't launched yet...  Grin

Also, for sgminer, there are more than one editions. Most of them working with the argument "-k bitblock" or "-algorithm bitblock"

Yes, I use -k bitblock. Or "alogrithm" : "bitblock" when I'm using a conf file.
