It's just a warning, not an error. And importing a library twice shouldn't hurt anything.

Someone should take a concept like Huntercoin and use an existing opensource game as the game portion, such as http://crossfire.real-time.com/

I put an buying GoxBTC order for more than 12 hours and nothing is happening. Weird ...

I guess it never traded as low as you were looking for then? If someone ever agrees to sell at your price it should trigger instantly.

Is there a way to be sure that this is really his name?
It'd be easy to grab someone's name and linkedin and do something around it no?

He was interviewed at the tail end of this CNN story:

286  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [Setup & Troubleshoot] Bitmain AntMiner S1 180GH/S miner on: February 22, 2014, 01:53:08 AM
Has anyone had luck with Antminers on coinex's switchpool? When the coin changes, it kicked me to a backup pool and shows the pool Dead. Also there are messages in system log that look like the blade crashed. (The asci disconnects and is rediscovered.)

edit 3
Something tells me cgminer hates coinex's switchpool. I took a pic and first I saw btcguild found a block then coinex kept looking for a block till I got a no error and then no device error for my drillbit thumb. I hope that doesn't mean bad things for my drillbit thumb.

I find that on coinex's switchpool, when the coin changes it will crash my antminer blades, in fact. system log shows the asic going down and then being re-discovered. It didn't occur to me maybe it was cgminer related, but you have a similar problem on a different device apparently?

My ant runs 3.8.5-1, but I think a newer update is available I could try. (Antminer image that is.)

I have an Antminer S1 mining on coinex switching pool.  It seems that every once in a while when coinex switches coins, my miner goes to the backup pool for a bit.  The pool hashrate always plummets as well so I don't seem to be the only one having this problem.  Does anyone know of a way to fix it?  Or is there a better profit switching pool available for SHA?

I have the exact same problem with Coinex. Did you ever try multipool or middlecoin or someone else? The system log on my antminer also shows what looks like the blade crashing when Coinex changes coins.

Roy, as a trusted Bitcoin community member do you feel like you would trust Josh with all of your personal data?

I sent in my verification docs for whatever that is worth. Maybe I'm too trusting. Smiley People need to decide for themselves what they are comfortable doing.

I think this little mini exchange is a good idea, it's something I want to use although in a far smaller volume than it seems some people are, and Josh has been around the forums for over 2 years.

FINCEN has no jurisdiction for Cryptocurrency to Cryptocurrency transfers.  Maybe they would like to; but in reality anywhere outside of US it would be absurd.  If FINCEN pursues this then all innovation will move overseas. 

I have no problem with CoinBase's non invasive process.  NO PHOTO ID.  NO Social Security number.  Plus they deal with MY fiat. 

Well of course FINCEN doesn't have jurisdiction out side of the USA, it is a USA regulatory agency. However I assume bitcoinbuilder is based in the USA so I appreciate they fact they take legal compliance seriously.

I use Coinbase also. Maybe the reason they don't need a photo ID is because they validate your identity via a direct transaction to your bank account.
291  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] "GOX" BTC <=> "Real" BTC exchange at bitcoinbuilder.com! on: February 21, 2014, 05:29:00 AM
I see people that have 100,000 bitcoins on the exchange. Is that for real? Someone actually trusting this site with that many BTC??


I see no such orders. Are you forgetting to multiply the # of coins by the price? For example:

90000.00000000    GOX for   0.00011

Is only a cost of 9.9 real BTC to place that bid.
292  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] "GOX" BTC <=> "Real" BTC exchange at bitcoinbuilder.com! on: February 21, 2014, 03:56:25 AM
Required identity is misinterpretation of FINCEN rules.  No fiat is involved whatsoever.  What's going on here?

FINCEN has specific guidance on cryptocurrency transfers and requires exchanges like this to register as money transmitters. Virtual currency exchanges ("transmitters") follow the same guidelines as fiat money transmitters.

this "exchange" lost all credibility seeing it is hosted @dreamhost
Couldn't be worse choice.

The guy who runs this was the co-founder of Dreamhost, so it makes sense he'd host it at his own business.
294  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Could this be the true (and legal) scam Mt.Gox is performing? on: February 20, 2014, 06:56:20 PM
"hackers" (if you can call someone asking you to pay them again a "hacker").

The word would be thieves. People who tried to double withdrawal the same coins taking advantage of the technical problems are crooks, plain and simple.
295  Economy / Currency exchange / Re: MTGOX <-> BTC BID/ASK on: February 20, 2014, 06:54:28 PM
What's the easier or right way to gamble perhaps a small amout of money and see what happens? Isn't that true that even if you have a gox account but if is not yet verified you will never receive any credit coins?if that's true what else can I go or do to gamble a bit?

Buy them on bitcoinbuilder.com and if MtGox starts allowing withdrawals again, you can put in a withdrawal address to your local wallet not your Gox account when doing the withdrawal.
296  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Pools (Altcoins) / Re: A Complete Guide to P2Pool - Merged Mining (BTC/NMC/DVC/IXC/I0C) plus LTC, Linux on: February 20, 2014, 02:42:56 PM
The idea is really good and that is what I would like to do is create a sub pool and manage the payouts. There must be some sort of calculation that p2pool uses to determine which miner gets paid what. I just need that same information from p2pool.

p2pool pays using PPLNS, but unlike a normal pool where you submit small bits of work many times per minute and those shares are all stored and added up, p2pool uses a "sharechain" which is the same thing as bitcoin's block chain but at a much lower difficulty. To get paid in p2pool, you need to find a new valid block for the sharechain. Payouts are based on the work you have stored in the sharechain. This way you don't have to trust the other nodes people are running, there is no way for them to cheat the system, since they have to find valid sharechain blocks to get paid at all and that is just as reliable as bitcoint's blockchain itself.

For example, a normal pool might give you diff 128 work and you find 10 shares per minute on average. So every minute you are earning 1280 diff-1 shares of value for the PPLNS window to base your payouts on. But p2pool might have a minimum share difficulty of 128000. So you'd find 1 valid share every 100 minutes on average. Until you find that share, you do not get any payouts because your value in the PPLNS window is 0. Once you get a share, you get paid on all blocks found while your share is still in the window.

What you want to do requires the proxy system I linked before or some custom solution you come up with. The closest you could get using p2pool's own info would be to look at the pseudo share difficulty graphs for the miners (ie: their hash rate history) and try to do payments based off that somehow, if you don't want the proxy to store all of the tiny shares directly.

**Update**
You can configure P2pool with a specific address, payouts will be made to the address directly. I realize that then the number of shares or amount of work is not relevant. However, I want to use a single address for all payments, then payout to each of the miners. How would I figure out what to give each miner.

p2pool isn't intended to operate that way. Remember it is designed around the concept your node is the "miner" and the pool is all of the other nodes combined with yours.

However, the p2pool proxy might help you with what you need. More information is here:

http://proxypool.doge.st/

It operates like a normal real pool, but forwards all work to/from p2pool to benefit from the lower variance.

Well, not that realistic, but I ended up paying 0.51 which is fine with me. Bitcoin arrived on my Mt Gox account nicely so everything went well Smiley
When did you manage to get that rate? I've only been looking at the site for a couple of days, but it looks like I missed my shot. 0.62+ now.

My history graph might help you out.

How fast are the OKPay transfers? I've heard that it might be hit and miss, and sometimes it takes a long time?

One issue is that OKpay won't work with customers from the USA.

I see the web site has a chart now (copy of mine) but it isn't working for me. In the mean time everyone is still welcome to use
