Latest release will make for pool mining. The code had bug from PoS only coin that makes pool mining not work. I fixed it and will have pool after hard fork to new code. Hard fork will happen 25 Jan 2017 06:00:00 GMT. Look twice at fork time! That's not far away. Update right away. Anyone not on fork will get network IP ban and take 24 hr to get going again.
Strange PoS only source code requires also special pool. Pool will be live shortly after hard fork. I will post link to pool in this message as edit. Speaking of PoS, here is hint... For PoS bonus blocks
put ridethewhitepony=1 in config.

As for exchanges, the pool was most important or only miners can solo mine.
I will work on exchange now. There are a few more days of small blocks, and maybe price can be high for a few coins on exchange. This pool problem was really hard. This is all I have been working on, hitting head against wall. I know everyone want exchange. I get lots of PMs. I don't ignore them, but we have to have pool or coin is complete washout.
Soon we will all be riding high on the Pony express!

Getting Started http://ponycoin.com:4444/getting_started (use difficulty port correct for your miner)
Example./minerd -a scrypt -u 444bt3mfDu4CABAHqFY3DMy5xddUEBFT8Lu9 -p anything -o stratum+tcp://ponycoin.com:3056 -t 8
I think I will give it a try. I have been looking for something to use with my old scrypt asics.
