The only reason why I brought it up was from my previous post that no one answered. Maybe I'll just ask it again here.
If my hash rate according to my miner and cgminer us a 560Gh/s average, why does BTC Guild report back my speeds at 529-580 inconsistently?
Pools estimate your speed according to the shares your worker submits. Being that random chance AKA "Luck" is involved these share submissions shares are not always found at the same rate by your mining hardware. Therefore there will be variance in what the pool reports as the pools have no way to tell at what rate your hardware is really hashing. Your reported speed seems to be in the correct range. Sam |

Are you using 3.7.2 or earlier? That was the last version to support altcoins.

as we all hate fees.
This is NOT a true statement. If your not paying for a product then YOU are the product. |

I am having a problem adding my BTC-E namecoin address into my NMC payout field in the settings menus.
When I add the address in, and click "Change" it comes back with this error: "There wallet address you entered was not a valid Bitcoin address. Please try again."
And it will not change.
Any suggestions?
I don't want to insult you but I did the same thing, copied the wrong address, could always generate a new nmc address on btc-e and try that. Not insulting at all. I have triple checked that I am using the NMC field in BTC-E. I also triple checked that I am copying the correct address. However, I cannot generate a new address because I have never used this address. This is exactly what it says: Your address for deposit NMC: N6bU35BJdKxhD3ctU5FC7rtWRVLyzieMyy If I copy and paste that exactly into BTC Guild namecoin field it errors out. Maybe it's because NMC is disabled because of the hard fork problems? |

when using gpu-reorder what is the official slot order the program uses? It appears to be mixed up.
I'm pretty sure your at the whim of the OS as to how it assigns the order. |

I agree - that column is overdue for removal. Now I just need volunteers to collect that data ...  BTC Guild .001 Ozcoin .01 Deepbit .01 |

I am running 3 10-port Anker hubs and an old 4-port hub, all individually powered and plugged directly into the PC. No daisy-chaining. Interestingly I don't remember ever seeing one of the 4-port devices going zombie...
I had to plug my 9+1 Anker's into my 5/7 port Rosewill hubs to get them to work reliably. |

The price of Bitcoin have increased.
The difficulty of Bitcoin also increased.
All Bitcoin mining pools should lower their minimum withdraw limit to 0.00001
---------------------
I need about 10,000+ volunteers to email big pools, such as BTCguild.com, Triplemining, Slush Pool, ect... to let them know.
I agree! The transaction fees you are volunteering to pay to process these bags of pennies will be great for the Bitcoin economy. Thanks for your generosity. |

Have seen the tiny Block Erupter heat sinks sold on eBay - surely they are too small to be effective...
I use the heatsinks that come in pack of 20 from Amazon.com. I think they are .25" square. But I do have fans blowing on them too. Every little bit helps. |

OoC,
It seems there is a need to post the minimum withdrawal amount that pools will allow a miner to cash out with. Would it be possible to add that? Or would it be too much to add another column to the list? And would Pool Ops want that information published?
Thanks,
Sam
I think it's a great idea - especially with the increase in the BTC price. I'd have to remove one of the other columns though, and I'm not sure there's one I want to remove at this point. Any ideas about columns can be removed? My vote would be, of course, to get rid of the merged mining column. But I'm sure I would be the minority vote in that. So I would suggest getting rid of the ASIC ready column since it's virtually a moot point now and change the heading of the local work to protocol and explicitly state which pools that are getwork only. Nobody knows what local work means anyway. My 2 satoshi's worth anyway, Sam Edit: And the Variable Difficulty could have User Defined abbreviated? Which would narrow that column. |

CGMiner stopped CPU miner support well over a year ago. GPU and Alt Coin support was discontinued in the past month.
Maybe try the Ufasoft miner. That's what I used for CPU/GPU combo 2 or 3 years ago.

Or would the logic be the chip will burn out so quickly it is essential even to come close to recouping the total cost?
That is the logic I'm operating on. We don't know what the longevity of these things are so prolonging them as long as possible would seem like a good way to assure a profit. |

I put heat sinks and fans on all my BE's. Not because it may be a fire risk. But because I want them to last as long as possible. I don't think a $7 USB fan will break the bank.
Fire is probably unlikely but frying the thing is very likely I would think.

Yes, there was a default address there before i realized i had to put in the address from my wallet. I have it in my payout history. not sure if it belongs to anyone or is just a randomly generated address. Not sure how to get a hold of slush, the forums link points over here. Def. not trying to scam anyone, mined for about a month to get that 1 btc..
Well if slush doesn't have an email address I would try posting in his pool thread and send him a PM. |

Before i knew what i was doing i was paid out 1.0 btc to a default address that was not in my wallet.
OK, I'll bite. What the heck is a "default address"? im not sure but it might be slushes. That's what I was thinking too. So I think I would be asking him to transfer it into the correct wallet? Seems more productive than trying to brute force a private key anyway. maybe but depends if the OP can prove it went to slushes wallet. slush is a pretty decent guy so if theres the proof then theres a chance but if the OP is just trying to screw money out of slush then theres no chance slush is way way to smart for that I've just never heard of a "default address"! That's just seems like a bizarre concept. Why would a pool populate an account with a default address. I don't think they would. But hey, what do I know? |
