Really??    

CCE getnetworkhash API  which has parameters for interval blocks and total number of blocks back from current. In THREE selectable output types.

Soon with the ability to to use time instead of blocks and accurately calculate POS/POW chains.

hashrate doesnt work for PoS networks . It eliminates PoS blocks from security and health estimation.
PPC has +80% of PoS blocks. it would be super secure on  0 hashrate.  

My fault, I should have been clearer.

I was just stating my concerns about a site that would put up a network hash rate that cannot be accurate.

Just to take caution with the rest of their numbers...


Anyway, I am basically going to get around the POS/POW problem by setting up an extra database that will contain the POW difficulty for every block since its implementation. The explorers on CCE update every block when the daemon trips the blocknotify script. I will add the process of getting the POW difficulty for the block currently being mined, along with a couple of other bits of information. This should allow for an accurate hash rate calculation.

The extra information is  to allow the users of the getnetworkhash API to use time or blocks when defining how they want the network hash calculated.As of now the API only allows for blocks.

A few things:

1. Would it be possible to show current network hashrate for each of the coins? That info would be AWESOME for judging overall coin health but may be a bit out of scope to coinchoose (if you do it, a graph like you have of the prices would be the cat's meow).

2. What about total market voume trade (in BTC) for each of the coins over the past 24 hours? Another crucial bit of info in deciding which coin to mine.

3. Total coin marketcap would be a valuable one to see too... not as crucial as the first too.

The FTC fiasco fallout and cleanup should be fun. I'm mining DGC myself.

FTC is showing 220% profit when it is actually broken and gives 0%  - FTC forked into multiple chains and every big pool is on a different chain, [ftcpool, coinotron, give-me-ftc, wemineftc]

Bitbar is showing 0 reward, while giving 0.16 BTB

i am so happy that coinchoose is down

Hi!!

I see you properly read diff of bitbar, but completely lost block reward.
you can make and easy workaround:

Calculate reward = 1/(diff/0,000244140625)^(1/6) ; and your problems will go forever.
Also, You can set default sort to adjusted diff, because it is awesome!


Thank You for this great site.
 

I think I remember seeing it listed once very shortly and the profitability was like 300% but maybe I was just seeing things.

pump and dump is market manipulation on exchanges, it has almost nothing to do with switching from coin to coin based on profitability.
Miners by definition sell coins, they don't pump (buy) then dump (sell).

If you believe people waited for coinchoose to switch from coin to coin based on profitability you are sorely mistaken.

To give you an example, I only have one command to launch and 3 config files to edit for adding a new coin to my setup.
This includes automatically compiling the coin daemon from the git repository, adding an init script for it and launching it. My setup then distributes the configuration to the rigs needed to solo-mine and adapts to the new coin. It parses the exchanges rates, uses the local daemon to find out the actual mean reward including fees, computes an estimation of the orphan rate and fine-tune it from the rate of orphan my rigs mine. When the data is in it starts to switch rigs to the coin if it is the most profitable for a rig (it uses the sha256d and scrypt efficiency of each rig to make this decision).

I'm even warned when:

• the coin becomes popular enough that solo-mining becomes gambling so that I configure P2Pool for this coin or create a pool account,
  
• the original git repo is updated
• the coin is dying and may be removed from my configuration

I don't use coinchoose anymore (I did briefly as a source for exchange rates but I prefer to develop more elaborate decision algorithms) so if you think DoSing coinchoose will prevent people from switching from coin to coin, it's only true for the less serious miners that don't/can't code a dynamic setup like mine. Linking coinchoose to pump and dump is simply ridiculous.

Right $200 for a month.

If we get the $200, will you throw it behind that tier for a month.

imagine all the babies crying right now because of this
