Price and volume starting to jump on Bittrex.  Just added like 1 hour ago. Hash rates for mining also going through the roof.

Could be signs (specifically from the mining jump) that this will see some action over the next few days. Mining difficulty has tripled in last few hours, meaning much more difficult to be awarded coins.

Time will tell but I'm getting some.

You mean before Coindesk did the story?  Perhaps...

I do however believe ISIS the organization existed before the story.

Lastly. See this:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isis_(disambiguation)

Anyone who googles "ISIS" would come up and find this Wikipedia article, which does in fact say:

Isis was a goddess in ancient Egyptian religion.

ISIS commonly refers to the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, a militant Jihadist organization active in Iraq and Syria.

Isis or ISIS may also refer to:.....

Anyways, the person who named the coin likely saw this - and was fine with it.

And seriously folks stop using this term "FUD" it sounds ridiculous. Way overused. Like a song that just won't die.

My post specified the exact number of coins. 5.5 Million.

All I was arguing is that if anyone decided to "try" to sell a decent amount they couldn't.

Here's fact:  You couldn't sell 200,000 coins if you tried. Its out of the order book, meaning price goes to zero. And that's only 3.5% of the the coins in circulation.

Lastly, the above wouldn't happen. Just saying it's thin. A 1% Sell Off crashes the price 25%.  Use the trade estimator on https://bitcoinwisdom.com/markets/mintpal/xcbtc

XC is going to fall hard. Way overinflated - there are no buy orders (perhaps $25,000-$30,000 worth of actual real buy orders). There are 5.5 million coins. I'd say anyone holding more than a 100000 XC would have a near impossible time selling them at anywhere near these prices.

Again there a millions XC in circulation.

Good experiences all around with Betarigs.com

Support takes about 12-24 hours but they respond and are helpful.

Never had any major issues and all small ones were resolved.

Also, I'll add that if you have small rigs, say under 25mhash on X11, definitely consider longer minimum rentals. Rentals that cost under .02 BTC would be, in my opinion, easy targets for trolls / people looking to earn free hash or tarnish honest rig owners' reputation.

Strato

Personally I haven't had any of the issues listed above in regards to negative feedback on my rigs. My personal policy, and perhaps this may help some, is if there is lower hash/downward spikes that really devalue the customer's rental to simply credit a fair amount of time to the renter. Secondly, the minimum rental period is usually 1 day, sometimes I allow 12 hours if the market is weak.  I also always give at least 1 freebie hour to all 2 day rentals. I factor these give away hours into what I price my rigs at. This way I end up getting the price I am looking for and the customer gets more than they paid for. A good deal for all parties.

The rigs in general take about 30 minutes to really get up to full hash, so in my opinion a 3 hour rental shouldn't be used or offered because 1/6th of that is going to show poor returns on most setups. That's basically 15%. On a 1 day rental, 30 minutes at the front end while the rig is winding up to speed on the renters pool really isn't noticed, and if they do ask/complain crediting 30 minutes or even 1 hour on a 24 or 48 hour rental is only a 2-4% loss on my side which I look at as a cost of doing business. Factoring 2-4% loss on 1 out of 3 rentals is really only a .75-1.25% margin for lost time.

I rent out about 200mhash worth of X11/13 on a few rigs, and I've never incurred a major complaint nor a no pay customer.

Hope this helps, as I view BetaRigs as a great service, both for when I want to rent out and for when I want to rent some hash myself.

Thanks.  I'm on the development team for 2 other coins at the moment. I don't think I am going to find the time to develop this one out as well, which is why I'm selling.  It was on our "it list".

Dubai is exploding... Hopefully someone can take it and run with it. Huge market - it's turning into the new Silicon Valley

I'm putting my R9 270X Cards Up for Sale.

These are the ASUS R9270X-DC2T-2GD5 which I purchased from Amazon - they can be viewed here:  http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FW4A5YU/ref=pe_385040_30332190_TE_M3T1_ST1_dp_1

6 Of the Cards were never used, unboxed but never placed into rigs. Zero Hours.

The other 10 Cards have been in use since February in a cold server room. Temps never above 75 degrees. Mining mostly X11 since May(ish).  All cards are running fine.

Willing to take offers on part or whole. In BTC or LTC, or whatever easilly exchangeable currency.

10 Day returns if there are any problems - no questions asked.

USA Bidders only please due to shipping.

PM Me.

Do any of the cuda miners available now have the ability to mine X11, X13, or X15 with the lower compute cards, like the GTX 570?

Just curious if I missed something.

Thanks,

Strato

Curious if this has been solved. Anyway to get more than 4 GPUs running on Win 8.1 with 14.6?

Thanks,

Strato

Personally I have access to large amounts of free AC. Roughly 300 Amps so 35,000 watts in addition to what I'm not using. If anyone is interested in selling rigs, preferably 280x (that's what I use in my farm) I'd be open to receiving offers.

My Free AC deal is locked in through next July. Lastly, it's completely legal if there are any concerns. My business took over a company that went bankrupt and part of the settlement included AC for the remainder of the lease.

I'd be interested in cards, but preferably turnkey rigs. OS not necessary.

Strato

If power wasn't a concern would GPU mining really be dead?  GPUs are still the only way to mine X11, X13 and X15, among others.

If you had access to unlimited free power (AC), what kind of mining setup would you build. (Provided you were planning on dropping serious cash on a setup).

280X Farm?
750ti Farm? (Less hash but better on power)
ASICs?

Again, if power was NOT a cost consideration, looking to the future... Thoughts?

Best Answer Wins .01 BTC . Closes Tomorrow 8PM EST.

Looks like all the pools are having issues.  Dedicated has warnings on it's site saying no coins will show, no coins can be withdrawn until issues fixed.

Is there even any point mining the first 30 minutes considering there is zero reward?

Nice!  Bittrex just added!  This coin may just shoot to the moon!

Nice logo design. Looks like coin is coming together. Just bought a bit more.

Good work to those developing,

Strato
