I opened a coin-base pool account. Started the minerd program, and the kilo-hashes were indicating on the command console (indicating hashing and "yays!"), but no activity reflected in the pool. Does anyone here know why this might likely happen? Also, is CPU mining the only option now for Stablecoin? What software is the best for mining? As indicated, I was using minerd. How about a stable or reliable pool?

Mining for Stablecoin is scrypt mining. Use CGMiner 3.7.2 or lower if you want to use a GPU for mining (the only realistic way to mine).

As for you coins not showing up yet, I'm not certain. I mined with the coin-base team for a while, but when I switched to the SBC CryptoCult pool, (http://sbc.cryptoculture.net/index.php) my KHs/sec went up and, more importantly, the stability of my connection improved substantially (no more waking up in the morning to discover my connection had failed).

Sorry if i come off as a noob, but I've taken 5 months off as well. I've forgotten how to setup the mining software properly as a result. I was following this tutorial (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=260049.0) but changing the parameters for stablecoin and trying to connect to this pool [http://sbc.cryptoculture.net/] but to no avail so far. I remember following a similar procedure and just creating the .conf & .bat file containing " yacoin-qt -gen -genproclimit=8 (the number of your cores 8 in my case) -addnode=82.211.30.212" when I solo mined YAC. I know there's some small error I'm making. Any insight would be greatly appreciated, or step by step directions to getting started pool mining again haha, as I'm very interested in SBC and think it has a bright future.

Need to know what video card you have . . . how many shaders you have.

The script is:

cgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://sbc.cryptoculture.net:3402 -u worker.name (usually something like astrophysical.1, or whatever username you use and the worker designation (.1) -p password (for your account at cryptoculture) -I 13

so it would look like this: cgminer.exe ---scrypt -o stratum+tcp://sbc.cryptoculture.net:3402 -u worker.name -p password -I 13

there are other switches such as -m (number of shaders), -w (usually set at 256), -g (can be 0,1,2--number of threads, usually 2), etc.

Others here can help you more.
