http://swmining.mine.nu/bot

This is a BottleCaps Pool.

Features :
* VARDIFF Support (Beta)
* PoW Scrypt with PoS Support (Beta)
* PPLNS payout system
* Dynamic PPLNS lastNshares calculation for correct payouts!
* PPLNS Status Display for 100% transparency (Very Cool!). You can see exactly where every coin goes.
* Stratum support.
* Support Ticket System for easy reporting of issues
* 1% Fee
* Detailed Stats

To Connect :
1. Register an account then login & setup your workers.

2. Connect your miners as follows :

url = http://swmining.mine.nu
port = 3336 (Stratum)
username = username.workername
password = workerpassword

3. Start Mining !



PLEASE NOTE: This pool has VARDIFF Support. This means that your share difficulty will automatically be matched to your hashrate!

This provides lower overall stales and better performance. When your miner first connects it will be started at the lowest possible difficulty of 5. Every 30 seconds the difficulty will be adjusted to better match your hash rate. After a few minutes it will stabilize at the optimal value for you.

Awesome Silverwolf.  I thought I saw some post a few days ago that mentioned you might open a Bottlecaps pool.  Looks like I either tried jumping on before you got the site up, or your missing a URL in your announcement.

Typo in the link.  Fixed now!  Thanks for letting me know.

FAIL..... damn newbs, why dont you throw hash power into something legit and be productive in the crypto community, LTC or BTC... wow

Well, that was an intelligent, thoughtful argument.

Thank You.

[IGNORE : B. Tazed]

its amazing how your last 20 post are all about hating and cursing others coins,

PLS

Do us a favor and get lost of  "Alternate cryptocurrencies" section of the forum...

BYE :'(



^^^^that

silverwolf  glad to see you have a bot pool running.  Good luck with it bro! i think the bots are pretty interesting, id start up a pool for them but and currently working on launching some others.

I already do throw most of my hash power towards LTC.  I just really like Bottlecaps, and the PoS part of the coin, making it more secure and more energy efficient in the future.  Sure it's a copy, but when you consider the other things in the mix, and the support behind it, Plus it's just a fun coin to have, makes it my fav alt coin, aside from whatever you consider LTC to be.  

Just add 2400 to it, see how it goes

It would be nice if you did like big vern and put a link to all your pools somewhere on your pages.

Glad to have you with us!

I've been thinking about how to add that without making it look stupid.  Suggestions ?

How is the VARDIFF working for you guys ?

It's been working really well for my rigs but I'd like to hear any thoughts you might have on the subject.

After it finishes adjusting for your hash rate, you should be getting 1 share about every 10 seconds or so if it's working right.

Plenty of open slots still.

Come get some BottleCaps !!

Silverwolf has the best pools !! Join now ;D

Seems to be working well.  Reacts as expected when my hashrate is lowered or increased. Averaging a share every 9-10s.

On low very diffs (i.e. 16) the average is much less due to short block times. Not much you can do there though.

edit: Re-read first post, min = 5, though mine never went below 16

The hash on the pool has dropped greatly!

Are you guys not liking the pool or is there a problem ?

I'm glad it's working well for you.  I haven't had any problems since I finished tweaking it.   Once I consider it stable, it'll be rolled out to all my pools!

http://swmining.mine.nu/bot and http://swmining.mine.nu/sbc
firefox browser accepts these pools as one website - http://swmining.mine.nu
so there is no option to save the password for each pool.
bad idea with the names of the pools.

the1silverwolf: I like your pool, but I do pool switching base on short term profitability... and right now BOT/CAP is falling hard on Cryptsy.
(I am the user "somew" in your pools).

Use LastPass.  https://lastpass.com

Moved VARDIFF and POW/POS support into Beta.

We still need more miners !

I apologize for my recent lack of response on the forums and the support tickets.  I've been in and out of the hospital this week.

I'll do my best to get caught up this weekend.

Thanks for your patience.

Opened up additional server slots!

Come get your account while they last !!!

Is this pool still in Beta? I have one miner on right now testing.

Everything looks stable. I've put some hashing power on it and it's finding blocks nicely. The coin value is falling right now, so 25% of the CAP network hashing power has disappeared instantly, but difficulty has also fallen dramatically.  I'll stay on it a bit and see what results I get. It would be nice if we could double the hashing power to 20MH.

Also, I've noticed a few blocks are being reported as: finder unknown. Why is that?

I've mined through 14 blocks including 1 orphan. I have 90% of the hashing power, no other are miners coming or going. Why am I getting only 56.78% of the round shares?

Current Round Shares
Your Valid: 2448
Pool Valid: 4312

Shouldn't I be receiving 90% of the shares?

Had to leave pool. Was only getting about 58 percent of the expected amount overnight. Wasn't finding enough blocks. Maybe variance. Pool luck.

What's up with this pool? I joined this morning and it was working fine, but now everything is dead.

currently there is a fork issue happening.silverwolfs pool has been listed as on right fork , so you should be ok, just stay patient until it gets resolved. for more information , there is another post mentioning bigverns cap pool.

I don't think Silverwolf's pool is on the right chain.  It says we're currently on 54025, but the correct chain has over 77350 blocks.

You're right. Another waste of time. Most miners have jumped ship. Thanks GoldBit89.

Pool is not paying out. BEWARE. No response to open tickets.

It can't pay out because it's on the wrong chain :D.

The BOT pool is now OFFLINE !!!

Due to issues with the fork.

Service will be restored once all issues have been resolved.

I wish you could have acted more quickly about this.  People have been mining for at least a day and a half on the wrong fork.

I wouldn't blame silverwolf for this as the issues have been pretty clear. It is very important to understand crypto especially if your making an investment in mining it. The pool showed 56000 as the current block for a day or so. Which was clearly way under the current block count. Yet it gathered 60MH's mining a block chain that was 30k short of the current chain blindly. The main issue that caps is having is folks not getting on the new versions with check points blindly mining for the profit. I highly encourage everyone to research and lean about these things and you wont have the problems your experiencing. Stay current on your wallets and stay up to date on the stock/commodity/currency/coin you are trading in. Whether its caps or something else.

Bottlecap block explorer

If your wallet or pool ever doesn't match the approved block explorer something is wrong its everyone invested in the currencies job to keep up to date on current events.

Is this pool working? I cant seem to connect
