Thanks.... just asked Yobit to add MOON.

Happy New Year 2016. I want ask when i made mooncoin.conf and than started wallet as server i get error message. How can i start wallet as server and mine solo mooncoin ? Thanks. In config file i added name, password, rpc port and others. Name is mooncoin.conf

It's not recommended to mine solo, unless you have big hashing power. Otherwise you'll never find a block and thus get no coins. Try https://hash-to-coins.com, as a pool that has no fees added to mining Mooncoins - far as I know.

And please delete the mooncoin.conf, unless you really know what you are doing with RPC and ports on your computer. The best will be, to delete that wallet also (after previously transferring the coins to a new one, of course), as there could have been exposed sensitive data like private keys to possible hackers via RPC, especially when using default passwords of some standard *coin.conf while you experimented with solo-mining. Don't forget to encrypt/lock your new wallet with a password, BEFORE you generate a new address to transfer coins to it. Only back up encrypted wallets.

If you'd like to mine on a pool without registering first, try P2Pool.

Here's the current list of pools:
P2Pool - Multipool.us - AikaPool - iSpace - H2C

Edit:
And a happy new year to you also, of course.
And to all other Moonies. Mooncoin is 2 years old from today, btw.

Thank you so far. I will try over the pool . I tried the Ethereum a few hours I had 2 blocks 10 eth coin . I have two HD 7970 ASUS top. How much is now block reward for mooncoin ?

[placebo]

Are people not considering taking over MOON and decrease the number of coins, they can leave the structure how it is now but decrease it so that it can be traded against BTC.?

29531 MOON (fixed) since a few months. That's based on the number of days, the moon needs to orbit the earth: 29.531 days on average.

Edit: Plus possible fees for the transactions of course (e.g. when combining many "dust transactions" to one big amount).

The advantage of mining on a pool is to minimize the deviation. That means, you'll get less coins per block, because the reward is splitted, but over time the time-based-randomness evens out better and the risk of not finding a block is reduced, hence the resulting amount of coins most probably is higher.

Consider donating some 0.x-percent of your shares to the pool-owner to value his work, even if he offers free mining basically. Most pools have that setting in the admin-interface. Happy mining.

I have mined many coins as a solo . And here at Mooncoin still writes as if I hadn't mooncoin.conf . So therefore i inform . Can you write me an example of mooncoin.conf ? Thanks.

Have you checked this: https://litecoin.info/Litecoin.conf ?

That basically has all necessary information to create a configuration file for Mooncoin also.
See here for the source code of Mooncoin, in order to build your own wallet: https://github.com/realmooncoin/mooncoin

On the bottom of that page you'll also find the necessary port-settings.
Again, only solo-mine into the wallet, if you know what you're doing, regarding open ports and RPC-settings on your computer. See this, taken from the litecoin.conf-sample:

 # You must set rpcuser and rpcpassword to secure the JSON-RPC api
 #rpcuser=Ulysseys
 #rpcpassword=YourSuperGreatPasswordNumber_DO_NOT_USE_THIS_OR_YOU_WILL_GET_ROBBED_385593

# By default, only RPC connections from localhost are allowed.  Specify
 # as many rpcallowip= settings as you like to allow connections from
 # other hosts (and you may use * as a wildcard character).
# NOTE: opening up the RPC port to hosts outside your local
 # trusted network is NOT RECOMMENDED, because the rpcpassword
 # is transmitted over the network unencrypted.
 #rpcallowip=10.1.1.34
 #rpcallowip=192.168.1.*

Info: the rpcpassword/username-combination can be used to remote control your wallet (dump private keys, send coins to other addresses etc.). That makes it crucial to prevent anyone from getting this info or access to your machine (either over the local or remote network/internet), especially when using an unencrypted wallet.

If you use a wallet for solo-mining, it's a good advice to send the coins to another wallet as soon as possible. Many pools of all coins have been emptied in the past, because the admin was not able to properly secure the underlying wallet and the miners did not send their coins from the pool's account to their own wallets as soon as possible. That's basically one of the biggest advantage of P2Pool, which does not keep the mined coins in the pool's wallet, but the mined share of coins is sent directly to the miner's own wallet/address immediately, as soon as the block is found by the P2Pool-network. That's the main reason, why you don't need to register on a P2Pool-node and can easily change the P2Pool-node without losing a single share, btw. The contributed hashrate is saved/remembered by the P2Pool-network as a whole. And regardless on what node you mine, it is added to that "sharechain". Hopefully some more P2Pool-nodes will be added in the future again to Mooncoins assortment of pools. If so and the pool-operator makes them public, you can find them via the Mooncoin-P2Pool-scanner (it finds and adds those nodes automagically): http://5.45.105.66
For mining on a P2Pool-node, you only need to enter your Mooncoin-address as the username into your miner's config and can use anything (like x or y) as a password.

Thank you. You helped me. I'll try and inform you. :-)

[coinflow]

Thank you. You helped me. I'll try and inform you. :-)

You're welcome.

Maybe this might help you, to get a deeper insight: https://asktom.cf/index.php?topic=83371.0
The discussion below the informative first posting is enlightening, too.

The block_nTime- and block_nNonce- settings from the sample over there can be omitted.
And once again: never use default username- and password-settings from sample-config-files.

Edit:
The port for connecting the miner to the wallet should be 9664 for Mooncoin. So a command line to start cgminer (for example) could look like this, if the miner and the wallet are on the same computer:

Code:

cgminer --scrypt -o localhost:9664 ... and the rest of cgminer-options

I was able to solo mine with the below mooncoin.conf.  It worked fine, but I never got any coins as I never did solve any blocks.  Difficulty was too high for me, so I started mining on a pool.  I did have another computer pointing to it so that's why the 192.168.0.* is in there.  You can remove that line if you're just going to use one computer.  Also you need to use a super long password or the wallet will complain upon startup.  Hope it helps you.

I am most of the time solo mining in my own pool, works great!

I think that about 80 billions on  cryptsy are blocked, and only 10 billions available on bleutrade. if cryptsy closes I hope to release the private key...

Why don't people do a swap? MOON2? with the coins that are available on bluetrade.

Too much coins... people are trading against LTC... reduce the number of coins, let it trade against BTC.. Get it listed on Poloniex or so, update the algorithm, make it all more interesting.

Lets not forget MOON is proven only one of a hand full of coins that let you deposit on Crypsy.  Moon is the only one that can handle larger output of coins.
I expect a run on moon, people want to save there cash from Crapsy and look a way out.

Those are among the few things that I have been thinking to make Mooncoin better. I know that it has a good community but it lacks development (if I'm correct) I mean is the dev really active or is Mooncoin being actively developed and maintained by its community? In my opinion, I think it is not bad to make Mooncoin a PoS coin. I would be staking them a lot (since they are easier to get due to their extreme cheapness)
