I want to compile FoxCoin from souces on Windows, but Im having really hard time with it.

Can you tell me what versions of mingw/opnessl/berkeleydb/boost/qt are you using, and if those are not the newest versions where did you get them from? (f.e. downgrading MinGW to 4.6.2 through mingw-get, that I tried, creates issues too :/)

EDIT: This is the error I am currently getting:

Great dev. I hope this crypto stays strong forever.

Thanks! Please show your support by taking on the promotion bounty and following some of the reddit links on the OP. It really helps us out and gives the coin a great chance of a strong, long future.

Hey guys,

Just to let you know http://fox.united-miners.com still going strong

We've got a good userbase still, so if you want a reliable pool then choose us!

Cheers,

Oh please. Let's not fork the chain over a few FOX.

Why do people want Craptsy? It's one of the worst exchanges out there.

Unfortunately "Craptsy", as "crappy" as you might think it is has a huge userbase and a strong following.

I think its odd that this is the only coin that has this mining structure. Reason is once mining is over you have to hope miners stay to mine fees but nothing guarantees this will happen. By doing what Fox does it ensure you will have miners for the next 200+ years minting new coins not relying HOPE that miners will stay to secure the network.

This is what I was also thinking about. Very unlikely that miners will stay and support the coin if it pays only transaction fees. Fox guarantees that miner will get paid for what they're doing.
Wasn't sure that FOX is the only coin with such a structure though. Really?

The FOX doesn't just want to go to the core and back, it plans to set up a nice den there and propagate throughout the resource-rich core Tongue

In other news, FINALLY found an OSX compiler, sorry for the wait!
