Launch Questions
When will MainNet be available
The details are being worked on.
Mining
Is miner CPU or GPU
Right now it is CPU only.
What algorithm do you use?
vBlake, which is a custom version of BLAKE2b we created.
Is it ASIC resistant?
Is is intentionally not ASIC resistant (although there are not any ASICs yet since it's a new algorithm).
How to get started
Where to get software
Download the software on github: https://github.com/VeriBlock/nodecore-releases (this has a readme)
Can I mine the coin now?
Yes, but it is for testnet only. Mainnet will have a new genesis block. The coins on testnet are for testing purposes only, and will not transfer to mainnet.
General
How long does it take to get a block?
About 2 minutes
Is VeriBlock a fork of some other similar-sounding coin (Veri___)
No. VeriBlock is a brand new coin.
Troubleshooting when running software
NodeCore.bat is doing nothing
Ensure that Java is installed (Requires Java 1.8, the code used lambda functions)
Set the environmental variables.
Can I upload my log file somewhere?
Yes, create a new issue on https://github.com/VeriBlock/nodecore-releases/issues. There is a file-size limit enforced by github, but you should be able to attach log files.
