XDN has just made a hard fork at block 317950.
Since the hardfork, I get a regular payment of 10 XDN whenever the threshold is reached. Unlike before, Minergate pays out whenever the mined amount is confirmed. I don’t see any difference though. I can see if I get less XDN when my deposit has been unlocked. But before I go into that, here’s an update of my bad/good shares ratio from Minergat
The format is : Coin ticker – Bad shares / Good shares = ratio
- AEON – 20 / 7,969 = 0.0025
- BCN – 5,836 / 470,175 = 0.0124
- DSH – 118 / 19,332 = 0.0061
- ETC – 3,438 / 70,406 = 0.0488
- ETH – 4,513 / 196,052 = 0.0230
- FCN – 772 / 35,818 = 0.0215
- INF8 – 5 / 367 = 0.0136
- MCN – 35 / 2,494 = 0.0140
- QCN – 11 / 647 = 0.0170
- XDN – 366 / 101,927 = 0.00359 (updated)
- XMR – 532 / 37,980 = 0.0140
When I found out that they did a hard fork, it took me a day to figure out how to move my wallet from the 1.0.09 version I was using to the updated 1.0.10. I just had to delete the block dot dat file in the roaming folder then open the wallet file in the new wallet version.
But when I had it working, suddenly minergate’s software couldn’t connect to the network. So I was able to mine XDN just a few days ago, and all seems to be back to normal.
You’ll see that I have religiously deposited and saved 150 XDNs whenever I have them from minergate. And if things are better before the hardfork, I should be able to make a deposit at block 320406 twice the amount that I deposited in a month before. Does it make sense? I already have 30 XDN waiting as you can see from the photo here.
And based on my wallet stats here
My deposit of 153.9 XDN should be released and free to spend at block 320406. It would take about 5 to 10 blocks before I can get it in my wallet then send it back again with the combined amount of what I mined and saved.
I said before that I’ll stop mining XDN and switch to AEON, but the deposit feature is tempting and I have 2,500 XDNs after a month. That’s only 57,500 satoshis at the current rate, but let’s see how many I will have after another month of mining/saving. This should increase more than half because of my savings, interest and newly minted coins.
Would it be possible for XDN to go POS, have a deposit option and have tie ups with major exchanges to facilitate the use of the coin? There are so many coins but I only see bitcoin as a widely used crypto and is tangent in the real world. It even has it's own ATM now and many other exciting new things that just came from "solving algo with CPU power"
I always wondered if the creation of bitcoin was inspired by the SETI program, since it's the only project I know where the computing power is shared for "the greater good".
