This is exactly what I think happens with this forum. Although the activity levels drop, I don't think the system will automatically demote users to lower ranks. However I'm sure an admin could manually change his rank to Member now, because he should be ranked as one with that activity.

Well most of these sites aren't actually mining, they're just ponzis disguised as cloud mining contracts. Take a look at this thread. As you can see, there are many suspected cloud mining ponzis, and even more that have already collapsed, such as PBMining.

As long as your miner takes less power than the battery, then you should be saving a little money on power, since the battery will fill up at cheap times of the day. But as Stargazer said, there's no way it would be worth it for a small mining operation with just a couple Antminers or similar. Why invest in a $3500 device to save maybe $5 per month?

He's probably talking about the 20MB block fork. I've heard that it's planned to happen in March 2016, and has been proposed by the main Bitcoin dev Gavin.

Here's a link if you want to read some more on it:

Looks like an interesting concept, but a really expensive wallet. Don't think many people will be interested in a wallet like that at the current price point. Plus, most people already have a phone and it would be cheaper to just buy a Trezor + OTG cable to use with an Android phone.

On the Electrum download page, there's a note saying that "Sources are signed by ThomasV. Executables are signed by Animazing". Since you downloaded the executable version of Electrum rather than just the source files, it was signed by Animazing. Here's a link to his PGP key: http://bitcoin-otc.com/viewgpg.php?nick=Animazing

If you import Animazing's key, and then try to verify the signature of the executable, it should check out fine. I just tried it myself, and it verified as it should.

All time is the pool's overall luck since it was opened. 100% luck basically means that if you go to a bitcoin mining calculator, it will say you should make x BTC per day with x hashrate on average. The 101% luck means that the pool makes 1% over this calculation on average, since the pool originally launched.

Yes, all Senior slots are currently full.

Denied. The majority of your posts look to be in the Off-topic section, and aside from that I see very few posts that would be considered constructive in other sections.

Unfortunately I'm going to have to deny you. This campaign wants the majority of user's posts to be in a bitcoin-related area, and I'm seeing most of your posts being made in the Politics and Society area.

Nobody has found a trick for fast mining, that's just good luck. Sometimes it can be an hour or two between blocks, other times it can just be seconds between them.

Post counts are updated every 24 hours or so.

They were last updated ~ 23 hours ago, so I haven't counted any posts you've made since then.

Replied to your PM, but we don't allow users with negative trust to join this campaign.

Do you by chance have a firewall blocking connections? It sounds like that might be the culprit here, especially if it seems to be running fine and you aren't getting any errors.

The -i command means that it will run a case insensitive search. So if you want it to generate a 1JTK wallet with the "-i" command, it might then generate 1JtK instead. It basically just speeds up the generation time, but you're giving up case sensitivity.

Do you have your Electrum seed written down somewhere? If you're having troubles sending a 2FA transaction through Electrum, it's recommended to just restore your wallet from your seed. That'll remove the 2FA and let you send your coins wherever you please.
