DGM reward system in BTC pool ! We are changing our BTC payout algorithm to Meni Rosenfeld's Double Geometric Method. This method has been designed to limit reward variance and is hopping-proof. Details about DGM you can find here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=39497.0 We chose following values for DGM parameters: f = -1 c = 0.5 o = 0.25 For next 10 rounds BTC mining fees will be reduced to 0% Thanks for the notice! Now there are sooo many reasons to mine coinotron! Merged mining right?  Switched in mid round, right? Heh, DGM will be enabled in next round. Current round is proportional. And to clarify merged mining issue: we don't plan to introduce it. |

On 2012-01-20 we have experimentally introduced to our pool new coin - LQC.
After 1 day LQC subpool hashrate reached 1 Mh/s !
|
|
|
|
|
Due to low interest of miners we decided to close IXC and I0C sub-pools.
We will not offer merged mining for those coins.
Please withdraw your coins until 2012-01-31.

After 24 hour LQC pool reached 1.1 Mh/s ! It is more than 10% of LQC network |
|
|
|
|
During first 4 hours pool solved 16 blocks !!!
LQC payouts have been tested and are available now.

Today we have experimentally introduced to our pool new coin - LQC.
You can use the same miner program as for LTC.

Regarding ixc, i0c merged mining - There is a lot of work to do in pool engine to implement that. I was planning to implement Vinced's proxy functionality directly in pool. And current i0c exchange rates are not very promising. I think I will put mm on hold for one week or two.
Devcoin - probably yes, but not until we see more trading activity.

We refreshed calculations of profitability factors available on our website.
- added i0c and ixc.
- LTC profitability is now based on new pooler's miner

For example existing version of i0coin client has weired tendency to crash our pool every 2-3 days. I don't have time and resources to debug i0coind.exe.
Are you running any custom patches? What OS? The i0coind on my linux server running on my pool has never crashed or hung. Currently I'm using yours previous version. Windows Server 2008. Thought I had similar crashes when I used "original" i0coind version. ( without fixes). Also I redownloaded blockchain. So I see only 2 possible sources of problem pool's wallet and i0coind. I must add that I'm running on the same server ixcoind. It is version compiled on August 31. It has worked without any crashes since then. |

Looks like ixcoin is going to merge mine soon too. bitparking said they will merge mine. coinotron, said he would, but also said he would not if there was not interest. If they don't merge mine, I suppose the pool is going to merge mine anyways and take all the extra coins.
If we decide not to implement mm it will be because of instability of mm proxy or other performance related issues. For example existing version of i0coin client has weired tendency to crash our pool every 2-3 days. I don't have time and resources to debug i0coind.exe. If we find that there is too much problems with mm btc + i0c we simply won't introduce it. |

Is Coinotron going to offer merged-mining for I0Coin? Block 160K is coming up really fast...
I'm not sure yet. |
|
|
|
downtime?
Yes, there were issues with i0coin client. I took some measures to prevent it happening in the future |
|
|

I've done a bunch of reading here, but am having trouble seeing a clear winner...
If you are mining for profit take a look at Coinotron's profitability charts: www.coinotron.com . Solidcoin is clear winner at the moment. BTW, I wonder why no one mentioned it before. If you are looking for "strong" community support choose LTC or SC. If you are not sure - diversify: 50% LTC, 50% SC. You can mine both in Coinotron. PS If you want some fun try I0coin  |
