Bitfury found a credit card processor that will work with bitcoin companies. Doesn't appear PayPal wants to any longer though.

Terracoin client version 0.8.0.2 will be mandatory at block 192239 (estimated date: Oct 2nd 2013).

The pool is running 0.8.0.2.

Thanks for posting!

No coin value can survive indefinitely based on speculators alone. Eventually the coin needs some practical purpose/use/adoption to have lasting value (in the sense of fiat value).

Does the default bitcoin wallet support that?

Found myself on the list! Yay!

That's why the only MMORPG I play when I get the itch is Guild Wars 2.

These days mostly SolForge and League of Legends.

Yes sir! Why do you ask?

Edit: Pool and web site were running normally.

Yes the latest TRC client mirrors BTC's own adjustment algorithm. So it changes every 2160 blocks. There is a max change cap of x4 or /4, so what happened last change was it went down to /4 because of the long time it had been too slow. Then everyone piled in since TRC was so much more profitable than BTC. Forcing it back up by 4x.

As-is, TRC probably won't sort itself out using this algorithm until sometime after BTC's difficulty increase pushes TRC profitability up even at the higher difficulty level. If it does raise to 400K, then it should eventually settle around the point the profitability is similar to BTC's.

A shorter retarget window (with smaller max changes) is probably called for.

How much power does this new miner use?

An external computer isn't needed to connect the miner to. It runs a web server for configuration/etc and you just plug it into your network.

I'm a batch 3 person and just waiting it out. S&H shouldn't be paid in advance right? I will certainly pay whatever I'm supposed to for S&H once needed. Thanks.

Yeah it's so weird. I was in batch 3 which hasn't arrived yet. All of zefir's batches (8? 10?) were ordered within about a one week window. So we figured they'd all be delivered in about a one week window. Not that the two orders arrive and then no other orders ever arrive. It's just bizarre.

I power mine off a powered usb hub.

Someone who wants to resell unwanted Avalon chips should just ship them all to burnin and sell them to bitburner purchasers who didn't get their chips delivered yet.

Cointerra just announced a price drop, btw.

Hah nice video. Now we know where all the Avalon chips are. Sitting on some runaway.

Are you referring to this?

Isn't that the European style of dates?
