I'll leave the critiquing to you guys and tips are always welcome .

Sorry, I meant to say 0.125 BTC.

Would also be willing to take 4.2 LTC in exchange for the 0.1 BTB (just updated the subject to reflect this).

Will also take 4.2 LTC (just updated subject)...

I know you were joking, but I did say reasonable offer.

The subject says it all. If you need some fractional BTBs to get to a full bar, this is a good opportunity.

I am selling some bitbar "dust". 0.1 BTB to be exact in exchange for 0.125 BTC a reasonable amount of LTC. Please make me a reasonable offer via reply or PM if interested.

Wow, we're some 48 hours behind in getting 520 confirms. The BTB network is really really slow...

Wow, you raised the last blocks found list to show the last 500, thanks!!

OK, I think it's actually 0.0001 BTB per transaction, I wish someone could confirm though.

Hey sido, why does the pool site say at the bottom:

Last block value: 0.164687 BTB

It's been at that value for more than 24 hours, is that really the last block value? I would have thought that it went down from that due to difficulty increases.

Still down for me...

Maybe that's the right question to ask, does BTB have transaction fees?

I am wondering if I should cash out my pool balance in 0.1 BTB or 0.01 BTB. What are the pros and cons? I know with LTC/BTC many small amounts can cause you to have to pay a surcharge for transactions later. Is this true with BTB as well?

You must have mine for much more than 24 hours to see a balance already. It is taking close to 40 hours at this point for it to go non-zero.

Thanks, and I just "rewarded" the pool by finding the last two blocks  .

I don't know, I'm still waiting for BRB... (after I am done premining)...

Sido, I think I have figured out why I am getting so many prevhash-stales. My network difficulty is >1M. So I guess quite often, by the time I solve a piece, the pool has already moved on to the next block. Then I have opportunity lost at the start of the next block, since I am still solving stuff for the previous block.

Suggestion: Can you please put a maximum cap on the difficulty of something reasonable like say 250k or something or is this not within your control or do we need stratum to be able to do something like this?

I wish others with powerful rigs (i.e., >1.4 MH) would let me know if they are having the same problem with prevhash-stales with cgminer.

It currently takes a minimum of 36 hours to get 520 confirms, keep on waiting... I'm at about 35 hours right now since the first block I worked on with a zero balance despite being in the top three contributors to the pool for most of the last 35 hours, so if I can be patient, you can too...

It think Sido's done an awesome job putting up a pool so quickly and fixing issues as they arose. Some people have already written about being paid out. I will post a message when my account goes non-zero as well. I hope others do the same to add credibility to the pool.

My pool id: mg128364

Sido, awesome job!

Can you please tell me why I get so many prevhash-stale blocks in cgminer?

Thanks
