Hey guys I am sort of new to mining and I need some help setting it up I have downloaded the wallet for windows from a link here a couple of posts ago and am now curious about it. Does the wallet automatically mine? there is a mining section with hash rates but I have yet to set anything up. also any help on setting it up would be greatly appreciated.
I have an amd fx-6300 cpu
and a radeon hd 7850 overclocked.
Thanks in advance.
p.s. Also should I mine in a pool and if so which one?

Hi, I've never GPU mined so I can't help you with that.
I CPU mine, and its really easy, try here

For pool try
http://p2pool.e-pool.net:8963/static/
but there are others listed in the ANN.

Hopefully someone will be able to help you with GPU mining.

Beyond my technical expertise unfortunately, someone will I'm sure, be along at some point to offer some advice.
Thanks

Sorry you're having issues, the source code is here
https://github.com/MonetaryUnit/MUE-Src/releases/tag/1.0.0.2
or you can point to a pool such as: http://www.exapool.com/ which has plenty of hash at the moment

edit: plus here too if you want http://p2pool.e-pool.net:8963/static/

Of course, leave this with us so our dev UpgradeAdvice can take a look.
In the intermin, you can pool mine at both exapool and e-pool ...thanks

I think the point being made is that we hope the option of solo mining will soon be redundant as the net hash means it will only be feasible to mine MUE through pools.
There are several pools to choose from, and if you have some decent hash rate please point to a pool with little or no hash rate which will attract more miners there.
Thanks

I am considering the option of changing some of the basic parameters of MonetaryUnit and was looking to hear your feedback.

The most obvious being the overall supply.
Technically it is set at about 31 million years of supply! lol which I intentionally did to put off the usual nefarious groups and individuals that like to manipulate and destroy coin projects.
Over a year on, and I think this is something we can possibly look at again.

What do you think the over all supply of MUE should be?
Happy to hear your thoughts.  I was thinking about 3,000,000,000 (about 100 years supply).

I still want MUE to be a low value coin per unit, however, this reduction in supply would potentially give a huge boost to the price and exposure of the project whilst maintaining the same principles and ethos.

Also, the current number of decimal places is 5.  To be in line with Bitcoin, this could also be increased to 8 maybe?

These sort of changes would be classed as "hard fork" type changes, so if we were to do this, are there any other fundamental aspects of the coin we could change at the same time?

IF we were to do changes of this nature, they would be well managed.  The new wallet would be released and only change many weeks in advance at a set block number etc etc

MonetaryUnit is over a year old, has some of the best services and infrastructure, is cheap, has payment processors etc etc, has a nice, friendly and committed team, and has huge potential that has yet to be realised.

So, any thoughts and suggestions, please let us know

Thanks

Ah, you should learn how to insert images



It works fine on my Win10 machines, I've never used MinGW before, but that's probably the issue, unless someone else has any other suggestions.

hmmm have you tried the obvious uninstalling, deleting roaming folder, and starting from fresh?
Sounds like something is corrupt somewhere, but like I say, I've installed several times with no issue, I'm thinking it's a local issue with your machine?

Oh..I'll have to try again myself when I get home from work...I'll let UpgradeAdvice know unless he is already aware...
