I'm really confused about ByteCoin (BCN). Half of the people here seem to despise it and tell me to stay far away from it. But it looks like it's doing alright. I only know a little bit about the story behind bytecoin too.

I mine XDN reliably on MinerGate. In fact I actually do merged mining on Minergate with XMR which means by mining XMR, that same hashrate also mines XDN at virtually no cost and I've racked up a fair amount of XDN to supplement the XMR. It's just a bonus basically. Minergate also has merged mining with XMR and FCN, but I honestly don't think FCN is that great. It's difficulty is somewhat high and you don't get much out of it.

I know people here also have mixed feelings about MinerGate so that's up to them to decide. My personal experience is that it's been fine for me but others have indeed had issues as well.

Yes, BCN had a bad reputation when it started out but their project isn't as bad as people think. In the end everything that counts is the people who trade it. I see it's about $6mil for the past 24h, that can't be bad, right?

I've also stared out mining with minergate but found out on my own that this isn't a good option. High fees for withdrawing the mined coins to a wallet, good hashes being stolen etc... I suggest moving away from minergate as soon as possible.

Although, I could not find a reliable XDN pool so that means you need keep searching on your own for one or switch to another coin...
