330 wont earn 0.01 in a day, if you had double that it might just make it as a daily amount. As said it needs to be left a few days to average out but my estimate is you will get pay every other day at best

Yea I dont get why a guy with bitcoins needs another coin though.  He may swap for dollars to pay his taxes or whatever but what products are served here particularly Im not sure.   It may work like a gold standard had copper pennies for the smallest items, this would relate to greatest security with btc ie. its not going to be replaced


Im thinking I will had to have mined LTC 4 hours prior of a block being found.  As its 'off peak' now the blocks take a long time hence many shifts will not yield a share of any coin.  The other easier coins may be alot easier to pick up and put down, I dont run a farm so I need that

Is the silver like perth mint, under a cert program.    I think this was how Dollar started, with backing on demand by silver and I presume its one way; you wont be accepting jewellery sent in
good luck anyhow, I think a fixed link to anything is hard to maintain

Im amazed how quick the situation changed since May, just looking at the payments section the pps figure probably shows it easiest.
 I have no asic here but I think its good for the entire network anyway because the bigger question has always been will BTC continue to exist.   So if its becoming more professional, more capable of taking on massive amounts of transactions then I suppose its for the good no matter what size section you are on the network.
  The price is fairly stable, not sure if volatility is measured like they do with more mainstream marketplaces but it might be BTC is becoming more reliable, which can help bring down bulk transactional costs but also raise business done in BTC which is what is really needed to make it all viable

Thats an interesting complaint because its what happens in a normal market.  People who profit are seen as negative and destructive.
   The basis for plain capitalism is open competition and sometimes people lose money but the idea is society benefits overall even from the failure.
  Look up Adam smith and luddism, its why the Fed is doing the opposite, avoiding pain, losses, flooding markets with money and then in turn we are here with virtual coins, are we to copy the Fed creating free money ?   Im slightly clueless why are these coins even worth anything, it has to be we are not money printers but worth more somehow


Im newly testing out your LTC port trying to figure out how my cgminer's reported 1000+ shares comes out the sausage machine as an actual coin at some point.     I used to mine on Slush pool and so long as its not going to return zero if I have to log off, I'll figure it out.  I guess as the pool bulk is elsewhere the ltc coin is taking forever to mine, hence I'll get paid eventually even if I have to stop cg now

You can view the time cutoff for each coin on the Pool Stats pages.
That would be the 4 hour round time for 1 'shift' a bit like the guild layout?

This is correct. Pooled mining works by everyone proving they are working on the problem. They don't submit all their shares, the difficulty is set so that you only submit some of your shares. That way you can prove you are working on the puzzle and you can proportion the effort by working out the percentage of everyone's submissions. The problem with a high difficulty for a fast coin is that some people might be working on the puzzle, but never get to submit any shares, therefor they never get to prove they were working on the puzzles - so for some blocks, they will actually miss out on a piece of the pie for that block.

But then the reverse is true because when you do have submitted shares, they will represent a much greater % of the pie than they should be, so in the end although it may appear that high diff is hurting it may not be.

My gut further up this thread was that low diff for the fast coins would help, but now I'm not so sure.
If the block is being solved in minutes or less and the miner has not submitted a share they get nothing and that work or coins are gone forever, its a closed block now.    However the miner has still spent the electricity for a block they worked on but recorded no share for

I see your saying but what if everyone lost shares but that assumes all miners are equally submitting shares at the same rate.   Some are fast, some are on slow links, bad pings or whatever so its not equal and the system favours whoever is sitting closest to the server with the highest hash rate.

  So its very unequal.     It is what it is, people can always leave but its obviously a biased system.  Im just looking at two LTC pools and one has a worse ping or something because its accepting 50% less shares per hour, middle is just the same except exaggerated by this 512diff so it can record absolute zero shares for some or extremely low

620kh, 4 shares in 14 mins which is comparatively better today  [R:5  Reject ratio 56%  discarded due to new blocks 144]

I think if there was two ports and each varied work slightly you would find miners themselves would switch to whichever gave the fastest hash without a need to manage further on your end
12133  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Pools (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - middlecoin.com on: August 01, 2013, 04:50:57 PM
You should make the difficulty 2048 since it has no affect on profit Cheesy

Ironically that might help level the playing field     Set it to diff 10k


I got 3 pools on rotate, fast coin with diff 16 has raised accepted shares by 100 just since I started typing this.
LTC is on diff 32 switched to 128  and in a few mins its done +13 shares.  
Middlecoin is 512 diff of course and in 5 minutes, it raises accepted shares by 1 share.  That's it, near to a complete failure


[set cgwatcher to restart miner if theres no accepted shares, which will also take it to another pool till some time later]

...but for what purpose would they need the coins if they wanted it dead?


My point exactly, they don't want it dead.

Keep in mind this is all just tin foil hat speculation

I did a reboot, just a quick look now and its showing 77% efficiency which is relatively good and Im in EU  
22.6m coin diff ? I think I prefer the harder ones as they don't solve faster then my ping

and just now 165k diff which means the cg screen fills with new block detected and efficiency is dropping as I type.   Think I'll log off  Embarrassed
12138  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Pools (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - middlecoin.com on: July 28, 2013, 08:59:55 AM
What period of time will that wastage mostly affect the score, looks like the hours just previous to your post but also mixed over several days

My miner is still not able to keep up.  cgwatcher says 8% efficiency, Ive gone elsewhere now and its up to 77% in 50 mins

Rova it wont be worth the effort doing.  Powerful for a sound card but not for dealing with 256 bit encryption.   Maybe a penny or two a day, what makes you think otherwise
12140  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Pools (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - middlecoin.com on: July 27, 2013, 01:59:24 AM
If I put CG on load balance it skips middlecoin mostly.  I get about 10% rejects, I think the fastest coins leave it doing nothing much


Less then 1 share a minute, is really bad?
