Yeah, that's what a bunch of Bitcoin miners said back in 2010....

Is the port going to be re-enabled for it as far as mining?

I was expecting fireworks or something... 

I see a few paid FUD's showed up already..  

Quick suggestion... on the old thread on post #1 at the very top before anything put a notice and link to the new thread, that way any new folks don't have to read through all that to find the new one.

I'm using it with 12 of the cupcake gridseeds on Syscoin.me.. the only problem I had was the vardiff, I put them on the 256 port and it's been working great for almost a week now.

I starting mining with IPOMiner as I've used them before but then they disabled everything and locked the funds.. while there was some issues, it was for a very short time...and then no updates from them,  and no release of the SYS that was already mined...  since they disabled their port and literally a few minutes after the announced  fork I've been mining on Syscoin.me (almost a week now) with not a single issue and received every coin from them without issue..so mining is working.. also great support from them, very active with the community via IRC.. while it would be great for SYS if IPOMiner could update and it would bring a large amount of hashpower if they put it in the rotation and direct port, at this point I am sticking with Syscoin.me for my mining.

Can we remove inactive pools from the list?  IPOminer has not been active since the first few hours, never updated, still has the port disabled and is not even releasing sys mined during those times.

Any updates?  I had to pull my miners for the Syscoin launch, but it looks like a few others are still around..

FYI you don't need to keep the wallet open to receive anything, it will sync back up next time you run it.

Anybody having issues with their wallets not working and unable to import their coins, and thinks their computers are working perfectly fine, you can send your private keys to me and I'll test it out for you and even send it to an exchange..    I mean that's totally legit right, nothing to worry about if there is no working wallets and SYS does not work...  

Oh and I'll even do it with my 64bit system...

Ok, I'm good for now.. I was able to download and install the wallet, get it to sync, and import my keys (more than one as I'd purchased multiple times) with no problems..yeah Moolah!! also was able to fully encrypt my wallet. (do this ASAP and backup you wallet.dat!!!!)   As a test I was also able to transfer some to an exchange after encrypting and it all worked.  Can't vouch for the promised features yet as I've not tried them.

As far as mining, IPOMiner (which I had an existing account from before) had some issues at first it looked like, but then added the direct port and I've been working fine since then. +1 Since they have been around for so long, and only took a bit for them to be up and fully running.

With the basics done I'm happy for tonight, can't wait to see where this all goes in the next few months.

Maybe have an "early adopter" window where the fees are set lower for a limited amount of time at the start to encourage use and development at the beginning?

As far as the miner goes, is it going to be built into the wallet (mine direct from it while the wallet is open), a new stand alone cpu miner, or a plug in for an existing miner program?

$4.27?  That it! I'm firing up all my other miners, and buying an KNC Titan.. to the moon!   

I'm actually surprised it had any volume over there, no matter how small it was.

Cool looks like it's back up as of a bit ago, along with the blockchain explorer... 

Looks like n00bsys0p's P2P pool went down, so the only one up and working right now is 0x0a's...

Happy Birthday, here have some Funk... 

Just going to toss this out there, don't know if it's possible without tons of work but..

Lately I'm seeing loss of interest in coins that don't do anything but be coins, or just have a new hash format or avoid scrypt, and/or don't have any purpose beyond tipping.  The newest trends are towards alt coins that can actually do something or provide some sort of service.. the newest of these being ones like SysCoin and Ethereum - applying the blockchain technology to decentralize other services.

Now I have not checked out all the altcoins out there, so don't know if any have started this - but how about a decentralized "itunes"?  A decentralized store front were musicians can sell their works directly to the consumers, bypassing record labels, publishers, Apple, etc.  Coins paid/tipped go direct to the artist, with no fees to anybody else.  Tack on a tipping and reputation system and you get even better... all based off the block chain to keep it decentralized and cut out all the middle men so the artist get max returns.

Downside is that would require a lot of programing and some infrastructure to pull off (mainly building the storefront (The AKA ITunes) side).  Some of these newer coins are coming out with full fledged development teams behind them, the largest being Ethereum.  And this type of system could actually probable be built using these coins/systems. But one dedicated just to music and artists would be awesome.  It's going to be one of those first to market with the most hype behind it things though for it to take off.

Of course somebody could just setup a storefront using Moolah and sell works and then accept any number of coins automatically.. but I'd like to see the whole built in tipping, feedback, etc and interactive community side built in.

Or maybe I'm just thinking too much. 

huh.. I'm an happy supportive investor and I"m fine with it... and I don't know what fears you are talking about..?    If you don't like it, don't invest..
