it's nearly like pool mining

istead the pool you connect to the localhost-wallet and you get the block-reward alone instead of all pool-workers
And in terms of coin profit, what's more profitable? Or is the difference minimal?

If you have high hash power than solo mining is better if you can compete with others.

But if you are average or slow, defiantly go into a pool, because solo mining would be like winning the lottery trying to find a block.

Is there an IRC? how will we know the second its open?

There is a countdown on the first page, I have it open. When it hits 0 I'll post the password above the download links & pushing the github source out 1 minute before launch.

I have 2 rigs. #1 2.82 Mhs #2 1.28Mhs. You think they both have enough hash for solo or should I hit up a pool. I was thinking #1 solo #2 on a pool. Figure I got my bases covered if pools have problems.

The only issue with solo mining is there is no longpoll support unless your miner program supports it (I know cgminer does not) so that means you won't be able to mine as fast as others that do have longpoll support, I know there is a way to point your miner locally, but also add the pool's address to get longpoll support with cgminer, so that's always an option, I can't go into detail as I normally just mine in pools, try googling it Smiley


Yeah Im not smart enough for that  Embarrassed .. and besides I'm mining remotely from work in a parking booth Smiley Thanks for the heads up about cgminer not supporting longpoll. Lets hope the pools are good to go. I need some more failovers but only one pool open for registration. I generally stay away from copyright infringed coins but I think this one has some chance.
