You used 1B49qTqGUm6ukgNhzv7YNEdnj3h5k4JKoj instead of 1B49qTqGUm6ukgNhZv7YNEdnj3h5k4JKoj when connected for the first time and this is how your username was created. This was an invalid BTC address so payouts weren't made. I just renamed it and you should expect payout today.
This seems to happen a lot. Maybe the "Start" instructions should indicate that BTC addresses are case sensitive. People should just copy and paste their BTC addresses anyway. Since they're complex and associated with money I don't know why anyone would try to type them by hand. Why not have the pool validate addresses when a miner connects, and refuse connection to invalid addresses? That way someone would know immediately that there was a problem, rather than finding out days later, and the pool op having to make manual fixes?

And it's been proven that programmers tend to produce better code with good documentation, and pay more attention to details without derails(work around and hacks). Because people are watching what you've done, you will go back to your work for typos and grammars.
As you don't have access to the source code to non-open-source projects to compare, that is really more of an article of faith than actually proven, isn't it?

No wonder many critical bugs are still unpatched and being exploited in the wild.
How does that make sense? The NSA discovering a bug but not publicising it leaves the world no different to if the NSA had never found it, or if there had been no NSA. The NSA knew about this 2 years ago... the bug popped up 2 years ago... I don't think it takes a tin foil hat to put them together here That the NSA is much better at finding software vulnerabilities than the open source community? Plus: You don't know that the NSA knew about it two years ago. You know that a reporter says that two unnamed sources say that the NSA knew about it about two years ago.

LOL, someone dumped into 195 to 190 4.5 btc,
Why is the MazaCoin website saying. MazaCoin is an all new fork of the ZetaCoin project that branched from BitCoin. MazaCoin is the Official National Currency of the Traditional Lakota Nation. damnnnnnn that sucks it's now Official and still dropping wtf!!
Please tell me when it became Official? Any news about Payu's speech at the bitcoin convention which happened 2 days ago? It has always claimed to be the official currency, and that has always been false.

We won't be giving away 5k or 10k SPA per person, more like 1k, 2k. But it will depend on the value at the time of the airdrop. And less in later stages.
That isn't what your plan says: Premined coins distribution:
It will be done in 5 stages, starting on April 16: Stage Coins/person Coins: People: 1 100 5M 50k 2 50 2.5M 50k 3 25 2.5M 100k 4 10 8M 800k 5 1 7M 7M Total: 25M coins for max 8M people. We assume not every Spaniard will claim their coins. Each stage will last 2 moths, any coins remaining will be either rolled over to the following stage or destroyed. We will watch the coin supply and try not to flood the market giving away coins (we'll probably place daily quotas in the first few days of giving out coins, so that at least no more coins are being given away than being mined).

Pretty obvious from the start that this was going to be a scam.

I don't understand why are people angry. While i was pissed at the refund thing, i don't see anything bad with the latest news. Will someone enlighten me why is everyone pissed? You paid for a 3TH/s miner with announced delivery on Q1/Q2. So the deadline is 30 June 2014. You will get the promised 3TH/s in June!(either as a free-hosted cloud hashing power either as a physical miner) It's very close to the deadline, but they respect their word. How many companies respect their pre-order deadlines? As long as they respect their own deadline i don't see a problem. Yes i am aware that they already have the cloud hashing power, but why should they give it to the customers right now? They gain nothing and the customers agreed to the Q2 deadline. If you don't like the Q2 deadline then you shouldn't have bought Neptunes! Easy as that. It's amaizing that people are complaining that this company already has a back up 2-3 months before their deadline, while other companies missed their deadline by a lot. I bet that customers that bought from TH, VMC, BFL, Bitmine, BA, HashFail(am i right cedivad?) wished their company had a back up plan as cloud hashing Edit: Forgot HashFail! "Q1/Q2" MEANS--- March or April.. End of Q2 = June.. misleading at Best!! Only if you are an idiot. Q1/Q2 means any time in Q1 or Q2 Not an Idiot, but surely a fool as are many who bought CA, mislead by the Q1/Q2 Delivery. June would be more like Q2/Q3, NO? NO. "/" means or. Q1/Q2 means Q1 or Q2. It doesn't mean somewhere on the boundary between Q1 and Q2. Which means it isn't late until 1st July. I assume you aren't a native English speaker? Perhaps the convention is different in your language?

No it doesn't. It was clear that it didn't when it was first announced, and several people loudly said so.

Following what I said above, I think it should be possible to use only one event per bit. Just check whether an interval is shorter or longer than the median of the exponential distribution, which is ln2 divided by the rate parameter (which can be estimated given the half-life).
This will create independent bits but there will be a bias towards 1 or 0, depending on the details of your particular setup. You need to compare two intervals created by the same process within the same system, instead of replacing one of them with an external constant. I agree the later is a better solution but using a Von Neumann filter, the bias of independent bits can be removed. For example in the setup proposed say the system was biased toward producing 0s over 1s. Since a 00 sequence (or 11 sequence) is discarded and a 01 and 10 sequence are equally likely the bias can be easily removed (01 = 1 and 10 = 0). Still you end up using at least 2 counts per bit after filtering. The actual number of counts required will depend on the amount of bias. The more biased the source the more counts it will take to produce the "rare" 1 needed to complete the sequence. For example if a system was biased 70%/30% in favor of zeroes then it will require on average 2.38 counts for each bit that passes out of the filter. Uhm, I don't think there will be a bias. That's exactly why I suggested the median. It's not an external constant, it's a parameter of the distribution of the measured variable. By definition, 50% of the intervals will be longer than the median and 50% will be shorter (a few may be exactly equal to the median, but you will discard them). Therefore, I don't think you'd need a von Neumann filter, nor do you need more than one count per bit. But you suggested estimating the median from a known constant, not calculating it from the actual sample. That introduces the possibility of bias.

Nice project! Is this the first time anyone had this idea?
Ernie 1-4 have been running monthly premium bond draws for 57 years, so not quite, no

Size has nothing to do with Luck. If someone is having bad Luck, it does not imply that someone else is having good Luck. Luck does not balance out, it just averages out over time. Luck is just that, Luck.
I'm confused. If two people flip a coin six times an hour, and each time the winner gets 25 bitcoins - doesn't ones person's luck affect the other persons luck? In this analogy, I understand the "size of the player" doesn't matter because they have the same change of winning (the exact same pool size), but one player's luck seems to affect the other player. Mining is more like continually flipping coins until you get X in a row. Both players can be unlucky and take much longer than expected. You aren't competing directly against each other, but both racing to be the first to hit a random target. Me being slow doesn't make you any faster. There is not a fixed rate of Bitcoin generation, on average it should be 25 every 10 minutes, but it could be 25 in 10 seconds or 25 in 2 hours.

yea paypal should add a wallet address to the invoice.. then the sender when he send the bitcoin he can add the paypal transaction number to the blockchain in a notice.. that way we can trade easily..
This. If they wanted to do it properly: a) Purchaser regisiter a bitcoin address with eBay. b) Seller adds eBay item number to payment. c) eBay can then watch for transactions to the purchaser's address, and see that one for the correct item and amount is made. (Alternatively, eBay provide the seller a unique bitcoin address, the seller sends to that, and eBay sends onwards to the purchaser.)

Next time you try and sell BTC for Paypal, sell it in the form of a paper wallet that will only be sent to a verified address linked to the eBay / Paypal account. That way they can't then turn around and say, "hey, I didn't buy this". They can say that you didn't deliver what you sent, just as with any eBay sale. Even if you send registered post, they can say that you sent them an empty envelope.

Am I paranoid or are government around the world are conspiring to kill bitcoin as an alternate currency? You are paranoid.

So, Im loving the scrypt guild, but i have one problem, my miners keep "dropping" to ZERO hashrate for a littlewihle, and then they get back to hashing, they never mine for more than 2minutes ata time, they keep "dropping" off and on
Anyideas?
Anybody? There was an issue with some particular versions of cgminer which would cause a 5 minute failover to a backup pool whenever a multipool switched coins. What mining software are you usnig? "MultiMiner" Im gonna try and replace the CGminer folder with an updated version You must be running an old version of MultiMiner? I think it stopped support for cgminer a while ago, and uses bgminer only now.

So the question is: why has the population been so stupid to keep faith in their currency and stave off hyperinflation so far? Maybe it's because they know of no alternative. Maybe because, in general, people really are that stupid. I've been studying this since 2007 and never thought we'd make it this far. Everyday I am amazed at the stupidity of the common man and, at the same time, thankful for every day of this "normal" life that we have left. So for the last 7 years, the 'stupid' people have been right, and you've been wrong? Perhaps they aren't so stupid after all?
