Here is some feedback after some testing. When I downloaded the zip version a week ago win miner was working nicely except that fan control and monitoring of my cards didn't work (Radeon HD 7790, HD 7950 & HD 7660D). I had to edit the eclipse pools, as the stratum versions weren't provided (also the eu and pacrim server are also missing btw). After mining for some hours I stopped using Win Miner and went on mining PPCoin with BFGminer. Yesterday I just wanted to give it another try but the first surprise was when I started it, it didn't automaticaly load the last configuration. So I had to open the config file manualy. Next surprise was that only GPU2 was configured, all other GPUs where unconfigured. So I thought that reconfiguring wouldn't take long, but the next surprise was that the pool list only contained bitpaking stratum and the edited us1.eclipsemc stratum that I was both using. All other pools where deleted. After I got it finaly working again, the next surprise was it was hashing like it should, but it looks like it wasn't communicating with the pools correctly: http://www.bilder-space.de/bild-gpu_nosharespng-7422.htmWas it just a bad luck day for me, or had someone else experienced the same yet?

it looks like you are mining on CPU or the Intel HD 4000, not the AMD GPU

Ok, Alter könnte ja interessieren, wenn ich jetzt auch nicht genau weiss wozu. Aber die wirklich wichtige Frage lautet doch: Wie reich sind die deutschen User?
kannst du mir 1 BTC schenken ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) So geht das: Haste ma nen Bitcoin? ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Thanks a lot for the 0.001 BTC ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) All the best to you

add Ybcoin!!!! ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) +1

I'm open for a good new POS Coin. What algorithm (SHA256, scrypt, scrypt-jane, keccak) will you use? If it's ASIC proof (scrypt or better scrypt-jane), them I'm interrested.

You can't transfer very small amounts of bitcoin anymore, because of the dust limit of 0.000005430 bitcoin ![Cry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cry.gif) Either collect shares until they are more than dust, or use something like http://www.coinbox.me/.

-Also, of these units are there any that are compatible with mining other currencies as this is what I would be mainly using it for, not mining bitcoin as the difficulty is so high.
You can only mine SHA256 coins like Bitcoin, Namecoin, Devcoin, Ixcoin, PPCoin, Terracoin, Geist Geld, i0coin, Freicoin, Liquidcoin, Bytecoin, Tonal Bitcoin or Coiledcoin with them. You can't use them for cryptocoins that use an other hashing algorythm, like Litecoin.

Wow, that is very kind of you.

YACoin - probably the most ASIC proof coin. This means you can mine it on CPU or GPU for a very long time. I guess it will be mined by lots of people in the future (because of the rising difficulty of Litecoin and all SHA256 coins), which means it will become interresting for shops and exchanges.
Why should it be interesting for shops, when a lot of people mine it? Those want to get rid of the coins for money, but you need people that want the coin. Because people spend their mined coins in cryptocoin shops. I buy stuff from bitcoinpride or bitmit with my mined bitcoins, but when the difficulty gets to high I can't mine a useable amount anymore without buying ASICS (which I won't do, as I never could reach ROI). That's why lots of people are now mining Litecoins instead. But it is too much trouble to mine Litecoins, transfer it to an exchange, trade them for bitcoins, pay a fee for transactions, transfer it back to your wallet just to buy a shirt at bitcoinpride. With the reducing number of bitcoin miners, the number of customers in the shops will go down. That's why more and more shops also accept Litecoins now. And if you are a smart trader then you add Yacoin too, as it will always be mineable on CPU for everyone (GPU mining is a bit nerdish for Yacoin, you have to try a lot to find the right parameters).

Copper Lark - there is a big chance of becoming one of the major coins.
Could you provide some details why you belive that ... I've looked around, but there wasn't much english info aviable. It uses a new hash algo, but that's all I found out and just a different algorithm wouldn't make it worth mentioning at all. There is much progression (from CPU solomining to GPU poolmining in a short time, traded on two exchanges after a very short time) and it's a very profitable coin ATM.

Any chance you would consider LTC(scrypt) pool with as much merged mining(no idea if there is any) as possible? I need to move my GPUs to scrypt since BTC is on limit of profitability for me now...
PPC or TRC with merged mining is possible. there's no scrypt merged mining coin atm. No, that's not possible. PPC & TRC use different blockchains than BTC. http://cryptocur.com/ppcoin-ppc/http://cryptocur.com/terracoin-trc/

I only can currently think of four coins that might become big, but I guess none will steal the crown of bitcoin: - Litecoin - Currently the most popoular altcoin, with now lots of GPU miners because the ASICs drove difficulty to an insane level for bitcoin. Also looks promising because Mt.Gox will trade it and more shops will accept it soon too.
- PPCoin - nice coin with a combination of Proof of Work and Proof of Stake. Proof of Work is suffering because of the ASICs (it's also a SHA256 coin like Bitcoin) but Proof of Stake (holding coins for a longer time) makes it a wanted coin. Just mine whatever altcoin is most profitable, sell it for PPCoins and those PPCoins will generate you extra PPCoins when you hold them for a longer time.
- YACoin - probably the most ASIC proof coin. This means you can mine it on CPU or GPU for a very long time. I guess it will be mined by lots of people in the future (because of the rising difficulty of Litecoin and all SHA256 coins), which means it will become interresting for shops and exchanges.
- Copper Lark - A new coin using only Keccak 512 (SHA 3). Mining is very profitable ATM, and economy is building quickly. Sadly lots of stuff is currently in russian language only, but when this changes there is a big chance of becoming one of the major coins.

From all the altcoins, Yacoin is one of the good ones. Scrypt-chacha (instead of Scrypt-salsa like most Litecoin clones) and keccak512 (instead of SHA256 like most all other coins) makes it nearly ASIC proof even in the future. This means it will only be mined on CPU and GPU. This is the coin of the poor man miner that can't afford ASICs.
