Hi, when slush was ddos'd about five days ago I mined on your pool for about ten hours, but never received a payout.  I'm hashing at 1,200 Mhash/sec.  How long do you have to mine on HHTT before you are eligible for a payout?

I used stratum.hhtt.1209k.com port 3333 and my bitcoin address as the username.  Password doesn't matter right?

During the last ddos I mined for about ten hours on HHTT's pool, but never got a payout.  Anyone know how long you have to mine with them before you are eligible for a payout?

Does the summer months have an effect on the difficulty?  If you spend most of your time in the same room as GPU's mining 24/7, it's gotta get pretty uncomfortable.

What did you sell?

I have a lot of experience on Ebay.  Certain things like iPhones, in demand video cards and coins sell for 30% more there then they do here.  Over a 100 auctions done right you will almost certainly have 1 or 2 that have crooked buyers. With the system about 3/4 of the time the crooked buyer will win and get both the item and the money back.  Despite that even with the 10% fees in the long term you still come out ahead on eBay. 

I tend to put items here for 20% less then I sell them for on ebay, and they sell about 1/3 of the time.  After that it is off to ebay for more money.  I prefer to sell them to the community, both making BTC more valuable and keeping money inside the Bitcoin community (vs ebay and paypal) but it does not usually work.  I will still try.

When you say "here" you mean the marketplace forum on bitcointalk?

571  Economy / Invites & Accounts / [WTS] Usenet Account - Astraweb 1,000 GB! [SOLD ON BITMIT] on: April 19, 2013, 06:37:43 PM
I am selling my pay-by-download Astraweb account.  This account never expires, is fully paid for, and has 997.5 GB remaining

I paid for this account several months ago and have no intention of using it.

The sale is for bitcoins, whatever the equivalent of $40 is at the time of sale.  If we made the sale right now, the cost would be .3328 bitcoins.

Send me a message on bitcointalk if you're interested, I check my inbox at least twice a day.

Hey this sounds really bad.

This is exactly why I'm building my site flibbr.com.
Please go right ahead and create an account ~ I'll email you on the next release when something worth while is looking at.

A cryptocurrency alternative to ebay.

I was thinking about making a site just like that, but I don't have much experience in web design.

I hope your site takes off, these cocksuckers at ebay need to be put in their place.

I've been an ebay member since 1999 and I don't remember ebay sucking this much years ago.

I recently sold a bunch of stuff and had one guy claim he didn't receive the item.  Since there was no delivery confirmation or tracking # ebay (paypal) by default just goes ahead and refunds him in full, with funds from my account.  What boils my blood is it's clear as day by reading his feedback that he's scammed countless others.  Yet ebay still fucks honest sellers like myself in the ass.

Scammers aside, in the early days of eBay you knew EXACTLY what your fees were for listing and selling items.  Now these crooks have deliberately made it difficult to see the fees so you get the illusion that your sale is pure profit.  Not even close to being true. 

Starting off with your final value fee at 10%, ebay's cut on a $100 sale is $10.  Then these crooks "double dip" on your sale because everybody uses paypal, to the tune of 4 or 5%.  So your $100 sale now becomes $85 profit for you.

But wait, there's more.

You need to ship your item, and the post office needs to make money too, right?  They charge their outrageous prices to ship your item, which seems to be increasing each year at an astronomical rate. 

So when all is said and done your profit goes down the toilet, assuming you were lucky enough to not have a scammer win your auction.


So what are our options?  Amazon?  Place your trust in somebody you don't know for a bitcoin sale?  Deal with idiots on craigslist who just want to waste your time with low-ball offers?

Slush you are the man I was able to get in and I've started hashing again. Thank you for your continued hard work!!!

Actually the server's down again, and you'll eventually get DC'd anyway.

Let's not forget slush charges a fee to use his pool, this isn't some charity case.  Why all the ass-kissing?

I'm still getting shares from stratum3 on miner1, but miner2 connected too late apparently. 

Mining on HHTT from miner2

Are these new servers DoS-proof now?  What's stopping the kid from attacking these servers?

It's not a crime to use another pool while you wait for a fix. HHTT allows you to mine without having to register an account or I'm currently quite liking p2pool.

Thanks, using HHTT now.  How soon do you think i'll get a payout if I'm mining at 1200 Mhash/s?

Slush, any estimate on when you can have a new address for us?
