I dont understand. There was no premine? Ftc and chn had same launches. It is not a premine just because you disnt find out about it right away and are bitter about that. Those that "premined" lts made like 100btc and at current prices so you point is mute.

I'm solo mining via pushpoold... getting decent returns (I'd think...if this is anything like mincoin... about 93 BTB over the past 30-45min...I have about 20,000 KH on it)...

Nice profit there, for "not premined" coin that should spit out no more than 1 BTB per 10 minutes. What a fail launch.

That is not a pre-mined currency. I was able to get 20 from the launch date until now by mining. And my hash rate is EXTREMELY lower than his.

I think it would have helped if they would have launched a modified p2pool/pushpool with it, like other coin launches have done. Solomining this coin has challenges after the first few hours, especially with lower hash rate.

We're trying to work through modifying p2pool ourselves but ran into a few issues.

Everyone just accuses pre-mining when they dont find out soon enough or cant mine fast enough or something. To be honest, I almost said that with FeatherCoins, but then I mined and was able to get a few tens of thousands (:

How do people have such high hash rates and be able to constantly point them to new alt currencies? Do they just build their own rig?

From your perspective, then, every coin released so far has been a premine.

That said BitBar has been one of the better launches since difficulty retargeted fairly quick.

20MH is just 10 rigs if you had the space and power requirement, I think it's not difficult. I constantly see people on LTC pool with 200MH mining farms under a single user.

Pointing them to new alt currency is very easy, just download new client and put the conf file. You can even share the folder and just do 1 copy for all 10 rigs.

The hard part is finding the space, and power to run your farm, I have the money to buy 100 rigs if I wanted, but I can't find a cheap place with cheap electricity, as I live in an area with very high electricity rates and real estate price.

I want to try and mine some using Reaper, but what conf do I use and how do I get the bitbars and send them to my wallet?

I was never successful with reaper, always crash. I use cgminer. You put the solo mining conf file (bitbar.conf) in your bitbar data folder (usually in %appdata% on windows). Look up a solo mining guide. You'll have to run the client and let it catch up the blocks, when you find a block, the BTB will auto appear in your wallet.

Where do you get these confs? You just make them yourself?

yes you just copy paste what you need to put in there, for example this is what my bitbar.conf looks like:
rpcuser=user
rpcpassword=x
server=1
daemon=1
rpcport=8106
rpcport=8108

Then you start your client with the "-server" flag, for example (bitbar-qt.exe -server), point your cgminer at -o 127.0.0.1:8106 -u user -p x

Because BTB is the first coin that has exactly what I want in a crypto-currency, I plan to divest 50% of my BTC holdings into BTB.
