Haha, a lot of articles are coming out it's great!


What a dream! I can now mine a QuébeCoin and return my money to Hydro-Québec with an efficient algorithm that won't trigger my breakerbox while watching the NHL Playoffs.
Thank you JP you made my day  Cool

Sorry Jesus, but Vendredi Saint is now Québecoin day  Roll Eyes

Bon long week-end à tous!

 
That's the most Québécois thing I've read all week.



First 100 block will have 0 coin ?

Huh

im just a small miner im not mining this for 3 hours for free...

who will?

It's actually to keep it from being instamined, which you probably know is constantly being voiced as an issue with most launches, plus it takes pools at least 20 minutes to get everything set up.

other than that, it also allow the difficulties to build up. Meaning those who are early for mining got zero advantage. By the time its 101 block, difficulties will be quite high due to hype mining of launch coin. difficulties usually drop after a day or 2 after launch.


Exactly, no instamine, and difficulty adjustment can kick in correctly. The current set up is 0 QBC Reward block 1 to 72, 1 QBC reward block 73 to 144 , 13 QBC from block 145 to 216 and then 26 QBC from there. The first blocks might go by a bit faster then it's on!




I've got the Windows and Linux wallets ready but I'm currently fighting against my friends Macbook Pro on Mavericks 10.9.2. I'll try to get at least the Quebecoind client if not the Quebecoin-QT but it's giving me a hard time. I'll try a clean virtual machine if I can because this computer is filled to the brim with crap.

If it continues giving me trouble I'll give out a reward (BTC or QBC however you prefer) for the quickest compilation after launch. Anyone have their Mac environment set up already for compiling?


I'll give 0.05 BTC for the Mac clients tomorrow morning if I don't get them to compile correctly by then. The first 72 blocks don't give a reward so it's not a disadvantage for Mac miners.
