Q: Can I mine MaxCoin? How?
A: We'll provide config files for the wallet client upon release to allow anybody to CPU mine from day one
but we wont provide a working client for you. There will be mining pools available from launch, too
.....or not.Q: I am on Windows... can I mine?
A: Yep
( you can try
), there will be a client for all major OS.
Q: So is it CPU only? Will I be able to use my Butterfly Labs ASIC when it arrives (... any day now...)?
A: Using Keccak as a hashing function renders current Bitcoin ASICs and the upcoming Scrypt ASICs useless on the coin. GPU parallelization of Keccak is possible but currently does
not exist for mining with our implementation of SHA-3,
but we will not release it because we are greedy and we want to scam you Your full of crap, there were windows miners, even a GPU one for nVidia cards, and working pool on day 1.
