mac wallet, the ECC linux wallets updated automatically.
This is not a mandatory update but recommended. Because we have a new concept of green future. New wallet much fit to our goals. Also we included coin control for ecc holders for better controlling coin age. So coin control will allow you to send younger coins, so you can reduce stake loss.

"Green Future" Project has started - Domain has been registered, Hosting Set up. http://www.ECCProject.info (under development)The mining days of ECC are over.ECC is now purely a Proof of Stake Coin... However you can still mine on a
multipool and get ECC..read more...
New unofficial ECC multi poolhttp://hashco.ws All you need to choose ECC at profile
https://hashco.ws/profile/ Yeah!
Why should we Mine ECC with Multipools?
Because we are taking more time over our own mining pool development for better function, and meantime, having a fail-over or extra pool is always a good thing.
The most important factor behind mining ECC is to create stable buying pressure on ECC .. the multipool conversion from BTC is eating sell orders on exchanges.
Just a reminder again, ECC is not possible to mine directly in a multipool, you can mine other crypto coins and convert them
1st in BTC
2nd to ECC

http://www.eccoin.cc/ | About ECCoin
ECCoin is an energy saving coin generating most of its coins through PoS blocks. It distributes its initial coins through 45 days evenly distributed PoW mining, no halves during the initial distribution phase, thus ensures a fair distribution. After initial distribution, the PoW block will be stopped. The coin generation will be done entirely through the PoS generations.
ECCoin also adopts a variable PoS rate with the following annual interest rate: - Year 1: 25% - Year 2: 15% - Year 3-9: 10% - Starting Year 10, it will have an annual PoS interest of 1%
|
After this 9 Years schedule , the coin generation will be reduced to the baseline inflation of 1%, and the existing coins will be used for circulation.
Specifications:- ~18 Billion is the total of coins in the POW stage.. 50 Billion coins after 10 years
- Scrypt, PoW then PoS
- 45 sec block target
- difficulty retarget each block
- 4 confirmations for a transacaction
- 50 confirmations for PoS blocks to mature
- Low transaction fees
ECC the max coin age for PoS is 84 days (minimum being 42 days)
So, if you don't open the wallet for say, 100 days, only the 84 days age will be counted for your % stake . It is therefore desirable (but not essential) to open the wallet at least once in 84 days.'
PoS:- Tapering interest rates (PoS) over 9 years
- PoS starts after minimum 42 days holding coins.
PoW: - Random 100000 - 300000 coins per block for the first 45 days evenly distribution
- After 45 days, the PoW block will be stopped

FAQEcchouse? Scam does this pool in anyway related to pool666 why they redirected it?
- There are some fuds and trolls around this matter. ecchouse.com is no way related to ECC except he scammed miners of ECC and we removed his link from the OP. He attacked on us to create false picture like we are scammers.
ECC the max coinage?ECC the max coin age for PoS is 84 days (minimum being 42 days) So, if you don't open the wallet for say, 100 days, only the 84 days age will be counted for your % stake . It is therefore desirable (but not essential) to open the wallet at least once in 84 days.'
Question About How They are Kept and Paid Interest Upon If I have (hypothetically)10000 ECC coins and keep them for 45 days. What will the interest be paid?
- 10k ECC for 45 days will be paid:
10000 * 0.25 * 45 / 365 = 308 ECCs
Does it have to be in a local wallet to accumulate, or can it be stored in an exchange?- Only in local wallet, in exchange it will generate PoS too, but no exchange will pay you, they will take the free coins for themselves.
Does the wallet have to be unlocked to mint?- Yes The wallet has to be unlock in order to mint. Use console to do it. Open you wallet, if it's not synchronized go to the first page of this thread. If it is, then go to Help -> Debug window -> console write this :
I have 2,000 ECCoins stored in a paper wallet, will the interest be accumulated in the paper wallet ?- The pos will be generated once you put the wallet into a wallet client.
[/list][/list][/list][/list][/list][/list][/list][/list][/list][/list][/list][/list]
walletpassphrase <passphrase> 999999 true
where <passphrase> = your passphrase
For pos the coin-day is not affected because the wallet locked. Once unlocked the related coin days will be used for pos minting. Edit: (ECCoin 1.2 New version has a button)
Question: I noticed the new button for locking/unlocking the wallet. I haven't locked it, yet the button is labelled "Unlock" --- but is greyed out so I have no way to click it. Not sure if this means it is currently locked and so can't do POS, or if it hasn't been locked and the button is just mislabeled?- Only if your wallet is locked, then the "unlock wallet" button will be enabled. Otherwise don't worry, you will mine pos blocks automatically
Unlock wallet?- when you encrypt the wallet, you use the button to unlock it (so you can mint pos blocks).
Minting? I read the FAQs but still don't understand what it means by "minting". I don't know what my locked wallet is preventing the wallet from doing. Why does it need to be unlocked for "minting" to occur?- Yes you need to unlock your wallet in order to generate pos blocks locked wallet will not generate pos blocks, though your coin-day will still be accumulating.
If the coin shuts off after 9 years, will the transaction fee then be reduced to 0? How does the PoS confirms transactions?- The pos blocks will still be generating after 9 years, except that the rate is a low 1%. The pos blocks will confirm all the transactions and keep the network going. The tx fee will stay the same. tx fee will not be lost.
How many coins will be?- After 10 years 50 billions in total.
What is PoS?- Proof of Stake. Your cryptos produce interest in wallet as long as you keep them. So you don't have to mine and so nature protected.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof-of-stakeWhen will PoW halve?- The PoW will not halve, it will stay the same for 45 days after that shut off. So fair distribution will be more possible. Not only early birds.
Do i need to keep my wallet always on for PoS?- No
Permanently descrypty wallet?-See
hereWhat is the premine amount?- It's 0.99% to support bounties, giveaways, merchants, exchanges, dev team.
