Why don't you do research before investing your money?
I knew that they are always late, but this is something else...
They are simply being unfair, which is different than being incompetent.

NimbusMining is using their old hardware. The mine per GHS product, instead, uses the new Monarchs and it will be offered as soon as Monarchs are ready. I find all this BFL discussions pretty superficial. If you check on their forum, you'll see that they try hard to make their users happy. For example, if you ordered the Monarch and you are tired to wait, they will reimburse everything to you. Or they will upgrade you to the faster Monarch. Same thing with the Mine per GHS, they are doubling the GHS to some users, etc.
I'll check the forums...
The support person replied something similar to the first part of the answer, that the mine by GH is using the new products and nimbus is using the old ones.
Frankly, who gives a F___? I paid for mining by GH, I don't give a damn if they use 65nm, 28nm or 10,000,000 people doing calculations by hand...

Hello,
I and many others have ordered months ago the $10.83 per hash hosted mining contract.
I didn't receive it yet (waiting for more than 4 months, some are waiting far more).

Now I see that they unfairly offer a new product called "NIMBUS MINING" where they actually use what they were supposed to give the preorderers as extra profit.
This is absolutely unfair and I would stay away from a company that fools their customers this way to maximize profit.

Here's a mail I've sent them:

Hello,
It's been 4 months since I ordered and I see that you've been offering "NIMBUS MINING" for over a month now...
That's extremely unfair as you're using what you should've given your preorderers as extra profit...
I'd expect you first fill the preorders and then use leftovers for this new service you're offering... That's what a fair company would do...

Any comment?

Did anyone actually receive their preorder for this product (my assumption is no...)?

FreeTrade: are you still updating this?
How you consider the MMC value going down? I've mined for months them because my considerations about that coin was the very same as yours Smiley
Only one negative point you've not listed: the pools are not at all distributed. 1GH.com and mmcpool.com represent mote than 95% hashpower between pools. I don't believe there are many solo miners so this is a problem now. This is due to the fact, I believe, that the only GPU miner is not open source, it's compiled and owned by 1GH.com. This must be solved for the future of the coin.
My only fear is that MMC could go in oblivion like many other alt coin  Embarrassed

The GPU miner is really not a factor since GPU mining is very bad with this coin (it was good for about a week or two until yvg1900 released his Yam Miner for MMC which eliminated this advantage).
I think it is safe to say that MMC is the most (or one of very few) GPU resistant coin existing today.

As for the pools - The coin's CNO is working on a (already in beta) p2pool to solve this issue...
This should hopefully move many people to use the official pool with far lower fees (1%) and will create a better hash power distribution.

Heavycoin cgminer is now released on http://hvc.1gh.com. All beta users are advised to upgrade, release version has improved stability and performance. Beta will not be supported.
Thanks!
Beta gave me 8.5 MH/s (R290) and the new version with the same settings give me 3.7 MH/s
Any idea why?

Intensity 10, Engine 1100, Memory stuck at 150 and can't be changed (not on keccak, current version or beta so I guess it's fine).

I can see that the card isn't really having a hard time Smiley It's temp is on less than 70 while on the previous version it was always above 70.
Oh well, back to mining SocialCoin Smiley

Thanks
467  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: SocialCoin - The Most Profitable Scrypt Coin to Mine Today! on: March 19, 2014, 09:35:52 AM
Fact 1: Block halving is coming up on Block 50,000.
Fact 2: According to CoinWarz.com, the most profitable scrypt coin generates a Bitcoin in 92 days per 1MH/s. SocialCoin generates more than that even with the current low value of 5 satoshis! 1 MH/s mining SocialCoin generates 280,000 SOC per day which are 0.014 BTC (71 days per BTC) at 5 satoshis (even more if you keep them until after the halving!) so - Mine SOC and keep it for major revenues.

Where are you getting this 280,000 per mh from? Average diff over 7 days is 1.9 and it's at 1.8 now. That gives 110,000 if you're lucky at 1 mh. BS post.

At the time of writing the post, the diff was between 0.78 and 1.1
Nevertheless, as the person above wrote, the value went up to 7/8 satoshis at night which kept the calculation intact.

I'm happy to see the increased interest in the coin which caused the diff to go up from 1 to 1.7 (currently it's on 1.26 - which means it's even more profitable than what I initially wrote).



According to Hotpoolz, last 24 hours avg diff was 1.2432 which means this post isn't BS... Smiley
I'm mining on Hotpoolz.
Thanks for the tip!

Reg. HVC GPU Miner, all I'm getting is:
Rejected 0e6a7392 Diff 0/0 GPU 0 Pool 0 (high-hash)
(100% reject rate)

Although I did see a line saying "FOUND BLOCK FOR POOL 0" which makes me believe the pool uses the share but doesn't accept it...
Any idea?

Please make sure heavy kernel is used and you pass parameters correctly. FOUND BLOCK message only means cgminer has found a share it thinks to be good for block, not that pool has accepted it.

reorder - Always on the mark!
Awesome job as always Smiley
(My problem was stupid - I forgot to delete the cgminer.conf file and used command line args so it got mixed up).

Thanks

The new miner can destroy the coin

Just remember memorycoin... Now is dead..!


just remember Michael Jackson, now he's dead, what's your point.

MMC was pretty stable, then they released the GPU miner, and the coin went down hill

That's a very wrong claim...
MMC is the most GPU resistant coin out there... It was a 1 week advantage for the GPU miner but ever since yvg1900 released the new CPU miner the GPU doesn't have any advantage on CPU mining AT ALL.

And MMC is far from being dead Smiley
Very much alive and well.

Update

Here's an update from the Heavycoin developers.

Stratum-mining

We have released the stratum-mining software today.  It has been made compatible with 1GH's private closed source stratum-server, so you should be able to switch your external miners between the different pools.  Although 1GH is easy to set up, we strongly recommend you to spread your mining among many pools in order to improve decentralization.


GPU mining

It looks like GPU developers have overcome hefty1, giving GPUs an advantage for mining Heavycoin.  We tried some new ideas with hefty1, but much to our disappointment it was not enough.  So, we must take our hats off to the GPU mining developers.

On the one hand, this is disappointing to us because we worked hard to try to make Heavycoin CPU-only forever.  On the other hand, this could actually be good thing because it means Heavycoin is now opened up to a new crowd of stakeholders and interests.  The amount of GPU mining interest Heavycoin is receiving is a very positive sign.

We would like to dispel the myth that GPU mining means an increased or faster increase in the supply of Heavycoin.  This is simply not true because the Heavycoin retargeting algorithm is working well to maintain the desired mint rate of 1 block (approximately) every two minutes.

We are happy that Heavycoin was (at least) able to give CPU-miners the first week of mining, which is often the most profitable window to mine (as the difficulty has much to adjust).  At this point we would like to ascertain to what degree Heavycoin is GPU-resistant (eg. how much CPU does it still require in order to GPU mine) before updating our website.

Our plan going forward to is to continue to support the core Heavycoin software, assist mining pools wherever possible and support the Heavycoin community with the bounties and future development fund.

In 3.8 days.

1gh notified about lowering vote - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=392322.msg5690982#msg5690982
They can only change the instructions (which they won't Smiley ).
People need to change the -v param (from 1024 to 1) and vote from their wallets as well.

I noticed that a lot of people's votes are still 1024. Why wouldn't you want to increase your profit and vote lower? I don't get it...
It's the pools... They want big rewards to make more from fees.
People, open your wallets:

479  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [VIDEO] MemoryCoin - one minute explanation video on: March 10, 2014, 11:50:09 AM
I'm confused, what are the unique features? Saying "we have a development team" means a lot less than "here's what we've developed" -- you aren't saying anything in this video.
Since this video's purpose is to be a short introductory one, we didn't want to overload it with too many details.
You can join our forum or go on our website to see "what we've developed".

As for the unique features, just as the video says in the first 10 seconds:
MemoryCoin is a CPU coin with a paid development team and a limited supply.

Where are the profitable Asic resistant coins?  Huh
Now that you have "ASIC" for Scrypt as well, the only good resistant coins are the CPU coins.
Try MemoryCoin. It has a bright future in my opinion and it's price right now is at the lowest point it would be on.
