Thanks to coinurl because made many faucet cant be used anymore :"(

This sentence doesn't make any sense.

He's saying most faucets use CoinURL, so as long as they have ads up they can not be visited due to the malware detection.

On that note, oddly enough I've been visiting them on Firefox and Chrome and have never had a warning or issue loading any CoinURL sites throughout this entire problem period.

BingoBoingo just put a bounty to slash a pineapple through half with my name written on it, and record it. Anyone want to add to the bounty of 150mBTC?

Since the pineapple would be domestic... would that make it domestic abuse? :p

Boooooooooo

Tough crowd, tough crowd... try this one:

Can anyone tell me their ratio of stale to rejected shares? I.e. The SS figure in cgminer, and the R figure. And over what time period.

Also, if anyone is using --no-submit-stales, can you tell me your address?

Off a 3MH/s rig:

A: 4109
R: 590
SS: 29

Time period: 15.5 hours

Update! Changed around the order slightly for now. I put the two highest paying faucets first (they both require an inputs.io account, but they are well worth doing!). I'm also planning a counter to add that will show how many faucets of each time frame are left (ex. showing that there are 5 more daily faucets, 1 more that has a 12h timer, etc.).

Would you guys like to have the order changed to be like this:

Highest paying -> lowest

or

Highest paying -> Longest Cooldown (24h) -> Shortest Cooldown (30m)

or

Highest paying -> Shortest Cooldown (30m) -> Longest Cooldown (24h)

??

Uhauuu!
Today someone has sold 50 million DVC on Vircurex. And I can see on the list 14, 44 and 35 million ready to be sold. Despite the dumping, the price is gone from 2 to 1.1 million DVC for 1 BTC. Not bad. Well, still bad, but not so bad.

Holy crap... I did NOT expect that big of a jump that fast. I'm pleasantly surprised and I'm very glad I didn't do a fear-dump like a lot of people did.

This is to be expected with such risk reward situations as these... they don't come very often.

Well, I do somewhat regret not buying out yesterday... I was thinking at 45sat or so it was going to be a great deal... but then figured it may go down a bit more first. Sad

Is something going on right now??

I have been periodically monitoring my Mh/h rate on the site from work.

Its been around 0.7-0.8 all day. Now its dwindling down all the way to 0.2. Naturally I assumed my rig crashed. But then I watched a couple other miners numbers who were near me in hash rate, and they went down too at about the same rate.

THEN my number jumped up (a very small amount)... Which can only mean my rig is still online and submitted at least one share.




As a side note, love the pool idea, everything is definitely in the infant stages but lots ok promise. I hope I can be useful in the growth process somehow.

For a while at least, it was dropping because of frequent pool changes. At one point my miner showed three pool changes in a period of under a minute. I can usually tell when there's a change because the fans stop for a few seconds while it tries to get reconnected and then they rev back up after.

What's up with chrome malware detection on sites that use coinurl?


Apparently they allowed an advertiser to upload an ad with malware on it, so it's now been flagged (the domain). They are going to have to deal with that through the proper channels to get it cleared up, and I seriously hope they have better protocols for the future; otherwise this is a massive security concern.

Is it only good for a month to month deal though? Ex. if we want a stable host, we would have to keep switching around at the end of each month to the new VPS (since the trials on Azure are only 30d)?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but based on my understanding, a pump is when people remove their buy orders and buy down a lot of the sell ones. For ex:

Buy orders are at: 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
Sell orders are at: 11, 12, 13, 14, 15

For the pump, those buying at 5-10 take their orders down and buy out all the 11, 12, 13, 14, leaving up 15. Then they re-list at 15, 16, 17, 18. This theoretically boosts the value because now the lowest sell price is much higher than it was before.

And the wall would be where they put in a massive buy order at 15 so no one can sell at a lower price for a while.

It would have to be a coordinated effort among all the people who want to buy.  And all those people have to be willing to buy at a higher price than they might otherwise be able to get.  So they would have to have a very good reason to drive the price up, enough that they'd be willing to buy some at the inflated price.  Maybe they do this in order to then dump at the higher price?  Would that be a pump and dump?  What other reasons might people have to be involved in a pump?

The general theory behind it is that when you pump, there is a slight permanence attached. For example, you may boost a coin from being worth (arbitrary numbers here for show) 1 up to being worth 10. While it is likely going to drop down again, it may only drop down to 2 this time, meaning that not only is the rest of your fortune worth more, but the future fortune you're still building is worth more as well. In some pumps, the change has been more drastic, such as going from 1 to 10 and settling back down at 5-6. In these cases, the small loss is easily made up for it in the massive gains there will be even over a short period.

Thanks, I used your site a bit.  It works pretty well.

One thing I found is that sometimes I would be brought to a site and I'd fill out the captcha and then it'd say 'you have to wait 0 minutes'.  Usually, by the time I entered a second captcha, the timer was up and I could get 'success'.

This tells me that maybe it'd be a good idea to pad your 30 minute timer for these sites by 1 minute.  It happened several times so maybe there's an 'off by 1' error in your code somewhere.

Okay, thanks again.

The timer's definitely right on, but the issue is that you're right... sometimes it takes a little longer to put in a captcha. For example, let's say you get one like "io0Oio" the first time and "check" the second time. It will take you slightly longer for the first, but the timer starts once the page starts loading.

I will pad it as requested, and thank you very much for your suggestion!
7876  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Pools (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - middlecoin.com on: July 26, 2013, 12:23:22 AM
Code:
block boundary (||)
(A) [64][64][64][64][64||][64][64][64][64][64][64][64][64][64]||[ ...
(B) [---------------512||[---------------512-------------][ ...

In this scenario, miner A would have 4 difficulty-64 shares submitted before the first block boundary, and one aborted.  The miner using 512 difficulty shares has not finished one share yet and so he loses the equivalent of ~4.5 difficulty 64 shares when he restarts work.

Miner A is expected to have 4 shares, but may get less or more, in some kind of distribution around that. Miner B is expected to get 0.5 shares on average. They work out to the same thing. The work isn't in discrete blocks like that. It's a probability.

So the payout amounts will just be more volatile/random for the lower hashrate miners is what you're saying.

I think something else to take into consideration... I am not 100% sure if this is how it works so someone please set me straight, but let's say you have 4 cards at 500KH/s.

GPU0, GPU1, GPU2, GPU3 would each be carrying their own workloads, therefore while you could have 50000 million hash rate due to tons of GPU's, each GPU is still a separate animal working on things independently.

This could be wrong, but it's what I infer from CGMiner's reports, especially being that it separates the work load of each GPU in its outputs.

You need to understand what moves price. That buy wall created some interest but it quickt fell when ppl realized there was no pump. As days went buy small sells broke into it. Like i said before when price sits on support for a while it will fall like a knife or be a long term bottom. As dvc the true value was lower because noone was willing to buy above market
not at market.

I said it before and wiser contradicted me but there is a science involved in creating interest in rising prices. You have to buy a bit above market a bit below as limits and a bit at market as you support a rise. Walls are only good from a distant price at it invokes fear greed.

That thing I never said keeps coming back up LOL.  The quote you are referring to where I contradicted you was wrongly attributed to me.  I actually would like to understand better how walls and pumps work.  You refer to a wall without a pump.  I get what a wall is--a very large order or group of orders to buy or sell at a particular price.  What is a pump?  Is that when someone keeps adding orders to the wall to keep it up?  Like for example, if I put an order to buy 20 million DVC at 65 sat, and then 1 million of them get sold, I then place another order to buy 1 million DVC at 65 sat so as to keep the wall right at 20 million?  Do I understand this correctly?  Or is a pump something else altogether?  If so, then what is it?

Would you be willing to write an article about the science involved in creating interest in rising prices and then send me the link?  I want to learn how that works.  Thanks Smiley

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but based on my understanding, a pump is when people remove their buy orders and buy down a lot of the sell ones. For ex:

Buy orders are at: 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

For the pump, those buying at 5-10 take their orders down and buy out all the 11, 12, 13, 14, leaving up 15. Then they re-list at 15, 16, 17, 18. This theoretically boosts the value because now the lowest sell price is much higher than it was before.

First of all, it hasn't been a month yet. Secondly, you have a Bit777 ad which means you are ineligible for payments.

I had the imput.io signature for a long time, at that time you didnt say anything about bit777, you changed the ruls in the halfway, thats not my fault. Had you ever send the people a MP to say that you had change the rules? Not, you dont...

Tell me exactly when you say that we are not ineligible for payments for having the bit777 signatura? When?



It's been a rule for at LEAST 2.5 months as that's how long ago I did my first period and the rule was clearly stated and as far as I know never changed...

Or you could just read through the thread. He's always been adamant about not taking 3rd party ads. Always.

Hey, checked it out.  Seems to work quite well, managed to score a bunch of coins. Just waiting for the payouts now.  Though, on a BTC/h rate, it's not really ideal, but it's something fun to do if you have some time to waste.

A whole bunch of the sites come up with malware ad notifications.  Is this normal?

Apparently CoinURL, one of the ad networks most faucets use... has been flagged as having malware. This started today as far as I know so hopefully it's resolved soon. Tons of sites are complaining about the problem.
7880  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [DVC]DevCoin - Official Thread - Moderated on: July 25, 2013, 04:03:53 PM
Why there hasn't been more buying pressure is an easy one to answer: there is no true value to DVC outside of converting it to BTC. At least as of now.

A market, while it would help with some of this, would lead to the same general issue: if I want to sell something for $100 each... I have to get the money somewhere. So I sell for DVC, then sell the DVC to get money so I can get more items to sell.

A game would be different, in that you don't necessarily need to keep converting to fiat to keep the ball rolling. For example, take Facebook's credits (or any F2P game for that matter). There are millions of dollars being poured into the fake currencies to be used in the game. This is what we really need -- something that gives the DVC true value without requiring us to keep cycling it straight back to fiat just to sustain the process.
I don't really agree (other projects in the works as you say, and stan's point about anyone's ability to fund anything of value in dvc) - I understood the 'true value' of dvc as supporting open-source work and what they may encompass.

But assuming that's correct, by saying there is no true value outside of converting to btc that implies that - at least as of now - the visible rewarded projects (primarily devtome) have no intrinsic value, because value is underwritten by rewarding or paying for those projects undertaken. And so if that's the case why are writers being paid in dvc when to realise any value they will convert it to btc?

DVC supports open source but... where is that value from? People aren't going out and saying "I have $100... I'll go buy some Devcoins so I can support open source stuff." You can give people billions of DVC's but if there is no outside reason to purchase into them, it has no value regardless.
