I tossed two CPUs on it for the entire day and got 0 on the second day from my recollection. This has been my experience for virtually every CPU coin ever launched. Can just go and read the Cryptonite thread right now and see the same thing repeating itself. People with 30 CPUs getting 0 coins.

Sorry, I forgot to specify I was referring to Monero, not cryptonite (are we both talking about Monero here?). Cryptonite I didn't even bother mining, been busy Sad

. If I ever want that one I guess I'll have to just buy it, unless something funky comes up. It looks like it has some interest from a lot of people here. I think I'm going to try it out today to see how it works, but it looks like the solo-mining window is out of reach now (for me), plus I'm still undecided if I like it. It has had a lot of recognition from the first block. It's crazy that 30 CPU's dont even get one block though, do you think someone's already made a GPU miner for it?

I might have some logs that can help me remember on at least the celeron/pentium HDD's for what I mined with Monero.

My sweet 6 core/12 thread i7 cracked several XMR blocks solo, and has got one XCN block too.

XCN diff rose much more quickly, because it was obvious to those in the know that its mini-blockchains are the perfect complement to XMR's ring sig bloated maxi-blockchain. Everyone who missed out on (or thoroughly enjoyed) the XMR moon rocket jumped in the XCN pool with both feet.

Speaking of pools, I would be happy to provide a few beefy VPS to anyone wishing to take a crack at getting the XCN pool code running (for public benefit):

Very simple pool software has been developed for anyone wanting to start a pool.

https://github.com/MiniblockchainProject/SimplePool

Requires the latest minerd and wallet code. Pool has a hard limit of about 8000 core connection in current implementation, corresponding to 16k getwork request/second. Updates to minerd would change this 8000 machine connections. Pool just writes share info out to a log file. Parsing thing for payments is up to you. The hard part of that is checking for orphans. Tested insofar that shares are being generated and checked inside of wallet. Have not managed to mine a block with it yet.
