I got a question, is bitHopper only meant to have 1 miner connected to it per instance of bitHopper? Like say if I wanted to use bitHopper with all my miners would I have to make accounts for each one and have separate instances of bitHopper for each or can I just point all my miners to bitHopper?
I have two computers and only one instance of bithopper running and its flawless. Just use the local ip of the machine running bithopper instead of "localhost". |

Its back up but the polish and american polmine are giving different numbers...
Polish claims it just found a block though.
There's an American polmine? Ive been translating through google translate. An english version would be awesome. |

Also, would it be possible to make the poolnames in the stat page into http links to the pool login pages? Bitclockers is permanently "lagging" for some reason.
Its called beeing poolhopped not lagged  No I mean that it never ever connects for me anymore. I think I may have been IP banned. |

Has anyone taken a look at Deepbits statistics for the last 24 hours? They are solving a block every 15 minutes. It would be awesome if there could be some sort of trigger to switch to deepbit as a backup when they are getting lucky like this. They publish their "luck" on their stats page in the form of a percent of difficulty for solved blocks over the prior 24 hours. They are at -49% right now, which is INSANE luck.
They are basically giving 150% efficiency, which is amazing as a backup.

bitclockers has been awesome for the last few days. Just gotta find which of these is the best for you:
pool.bitclockers.com
pool1.bitclockers.com
pool2.bitclockers.com
pool3.bitclockers.com
pool4.bitclockers.com

Not that it matters, I think. I don't know about y'all, but I have all of 4 pools that are hopable, and of those, only mtred cycles with any regularity
Polmine bitclockers ozcoin triple nofee bitcoins.lc mtred rfc A lot more than 4 pools to use. ozcoin, nofee, triple, mtred and bitclockers are the backbone of making a ton of BTC. bclc is good on short rounds. rfc and polmine solve like one block a century, but if they get lucky and get a short block you score massively. |

MtRed just had a 4 minute round. I hope you guys didn't miss out on it.

But the question is: rewrite of api system or bitcoind integration?
On the note about api failures, I think there should be something to keep from switching between the optimal pool that is lagging and the second option. Maybe a configurable countdown timer or X successful api polls before returning to a lagging pool. I too have noticed the constant switching back and forth. THIS!!! Whenever I mine some of the smaller pools I get a few shares in and then there is a connection issue and bithopper immediately switches to the backup pool for 2 minutes. It would be awesome if we could have it keep mining for the pool having the connection issues and only switch if the connection is truly lost over a certain period of time like 30 seconds. |

It will definitely be sorted once the new infrastructure is up
Man, that can't come soon enough. I keep having connection issues and its extra annoying because each time my card goes idle my screen flickers. Also payments are being slaughtered by being idle so often. |

I'm still not sure how you would tell - if stats are delayed by an hour, then you'd still get a full amount of shares because bitHopper would still hop off at the point that it thought was correct. It sounds like what you're talking about is more like delaying an update to let everyone know a block has started?
Either way, is the website total shares the same as or different to the json total shares?
What happens is this. Say a round is six hours and 30 minutes long. Well the website will report the round as 7 hours long, and then suddenly report that round as six hours and 30 minutes long and report the new round as starting 30 minutes ago. So then the hopper switches usually because its only like 170k shares but you have essentially missed out on the most valuable mining that there is. You still make money over Ars on short to normal length rounds, but on long rounds your shares are essentially worthless. |

How are you noticing this - is it a difference between json and website? I'm at work and can't check, sorry.
I have been mining bitcoins.lc for a while and have been monitoring it. For the last few days I have only been able to jump to bitcoins.lc 30 minutes into a block which is like 177k shares. I asked Jine straight up what was going on and he replied that he is randomly delaying stats 0-3600 seconds. |

Mmmhhh, sorry Mister triplemining op. But at least u had some hashrate while i was away. Lesson 1: never leave your hopper longer than 4 hours  And now I am wondering: Did mtred find a block or also gone rogue?h 32minute block. Was awesome. |

I find that my bank's ATM is broken. When I press 4-7-2-1-0 it gives me 200$ in cash, no card needed. Now the error is in the ATM hardware, so to fix it my bank has to fix each and every ATM. It decides that letting me steal money off of the bank (and therefore the other customers) is cheaper than fixing all those ATMs. Now these are my options: I can ask the bank nicely to reconsider.I can just use it for my own benefit.I can stop withdrawing money using the ATM bug. Others will still do it, but I don't. I am just being robbed, while the bank doesn't care.- I can tell the media / as many people as I can to do it until the bank has to fix the bug or loose customers.
You are breaking a law by stealing money that you know is not yours. Not a SINGLE pool has a posted rule against pool hopping, so not only isn't it illegal, but it doesn't violate a SINGLE pool's terms of service. |

Are you delaying stats for 30 minutes?

Wow, today and yesterday have been AWESOME. Literally made 5 days worth in 2 days, and there is still 6 hours left to go in day 2.

Is your pool now PPLNS? You tweeted that you were going to switch it over, but you didn't post anything here. Your site still says proportional . . .

Yea, should be mining at triple right now but for some reason their stats are reporting way too high.

Pretty sure bitcoins.lc is delaying stats by 30 minutes. By the time I switch over they usually already have 180k shares. Is it still profitable to mine there when you miss the first 200k shares? I see no real reason why it wouldn't be . . .
Edit: Looks like it really effects payouts for smaller rounds. I should be getting per round payouts in the .077 range for rounds under 700k shares if I was to jump in immediately, but I am seeing payouts in the .03 range instead. Also missed a block entirely because it was less than 30 mins.
Still more profitable than mining at Arsbitcoin with those same number of shares, but payouts are drastically reduced.

Why is there a problem with delayed stats? Pool hopping is just that. You request work, send a share, switch, send a share, switch and so on....this is not how i imagine pool hopping to be.
What would be the use of doing that? Do you know how inefficient that would be? Request work from pool 1, send a share, disconnect from pool 1, connect to pool 2, request work, send a share, etc, etc, etc. . . If that was what pool hopping was, why wouldn't you just open up multiple workers, one per pool and let them mine away sharing your GPU? Just to make it clear, your concept of pool hopping is not remotely correct. |
