Indeed, I've been around since June 2014 and suchpool has always been an example of what-to-do. It sucks but current Bitcoin prices make most crypto business unprofitable, at least the smaller guys like us.

That's what my argument has been these past two weeks, btc is heavily manipulated and under control by well, the usual suspects. Just in the last month or so, these businesses have closed or paused operations:

- TradeMyBit
- BecausePool
- SuchPool
- ZeusMiners
- Ccex.io (cloud mining)

And that's off the top of my head, without even mentioning stuff like egopay, cointerra cloud mining, etc, etc, etc.

These are very hard times and this site (Bitcointalk) has only done damage to the altcoin world where suchpool, becausepool, trademybit and of course my own pool do business.
- Paid fudster teams (bct mods know but they don't care as long as no one touches their scamcoin btc, biggest shitcoin there is).
- Constant persecution and banning for "spam" No altcoin based business is allowed to even post a one liner announcing services for a specific coin, if the mod feels like it, they will ban your ass, most of the times they just delete the posts anyway.
- Scam devs which actually post constant viruses, sometimes with the same account and guess what, they can do it over and over gain. Some of these devs aren't using tor which means the ip is recorded...

But hey what can we expect if some of the big boys on BCT have actually said "all altcoins are scam and i hope they die already".

Solution isn't easy, but first thing, is: Move away from BCT, I'm not a fan of GAW, at all, but at least hashtalk is an option with decent traffic.

Trust me, you don't want to be another bitcoin, it turned out to be what it wasn't supposed to be.

I'll have to withdraw from this one, although I do have support for qubit, there's no place to rent from and i won't use my cpus testing this. Success of a coin isn't tied to the algo, but promotion itself.

That being said, testing the algo would require time and effort that I'm not willing to invest, good luck with it ocminer.

EDIT: There's no such thing as x11/x13 FPGAs, nor will there  ever be one (not profitable to build one). Those hashrate spikes are rentals

Wow 161TH, not bad at all

Dev: Please add to the OP, thanks!

Wow, that's very, very cool! I completely see what you mean there man, and it's 100% true.

Yeah, bitcoin is the biggest shitcoin scam ever, too big for people to notice

No worries, It's just a "new" pool, suchpool asked me to host one after they shut down.
BCT rules are meaningless to me, once they stop banning real services and stop protecting scammers and fud groups, they might get my respect again. In tne meantime...

You sir, deserve a medal +100000000

Bitcoin is the biggest shitcoin/scamcoin there is, if it were launched today it would go nowhere because it's technologically behind every single one of the altcoins, even the bad ones.
only thing keeping it up really is the amount of money that jumped into it at the beginning and the fact that newcomers always hear first of bitcoin and then someone speaks of any other coin as an "altcoin" or a "clone" which makes them look bad even before anyone takes a look at how they are.

Viacoin for example is 10000 times better than btc for any real usage that may come from it, but, this is also everyone's fault, the exchanges for only listing btc as the "big" coin which converts to fiat and pretty much only listing that one and litecoin (who?).

True, most alts are crap, but some of them, around 1-2% (which is a lot considering the amount of alts in existance) are actually quite good and comparing them to btc is like comparing an aston martin to an old crappy ass buick.

I've honestly lost a lot more money holding BTC than holding alts, a LOT more.

use --salvagewallet for if that doesn't work try with --repairwallet (Backup your wallet.dat before you try anything)

Seriously, did you guys expect something different?

Dat instamine, and dat pool launch 20 secs flat after OP posted :/

Exactly, every software is based off of another previous one, that's part of what open source is about, improving and making use of it.

Ever heard of linux? There's like 300 distros out there, several actually are for niche markets, while some are some of the strongest OS in existence.

EDIT: Like my pool, it's based from MPOS, pretty much like every other pool, only difference is some of us had some mods made to it, but it's nothing original, you won't really get software developed from scratch in weeks and much less without cash.

Remember all those ICO's requesting lots of funds for coins that promised stuff and never delivered?. I cheerlead for this coin because it's the type of coin I like, they deliver without nonsense.
