Try other service: The newest with the most affordable mining contracts and highest payout is http://www.xxxx-mining.com/
I have been testing them since the start along with other cloud service. I am planning on posting a review on the cloud services.


LOL! These boys have SCAM written all over them, including the fact they've misspelled their own company name on their website.

I'm trying this with P2Pool and Armory, Linux Mint 17 64-bit. I'm seeing "Unable to resolve relay peer hostname" messages in the terminal window. Are these errors or normal operation?
Sounds like you mis-typed the relay node server (or your DNS is messed up)?

Yep. I missed the "relay" in the address string. Checked it a couple of times before I posted, but missed both times. Thank you!

I am not worried about if I am losing/ wasting money "Now".   The point of mining to me is to keep generating btc while I hold. I have made some ROI on my miners and also just broken even on some. At the end of the day I am mining for what btc is in 10 years not what it is now

+1.

If btc were only an improved currency and remittances system, that would be awesome enough. But there's so much more potential in the blockchain.

I'm a home miner with 3th. Not really making money but getting some BTC. I do it for interest in the whole process of digital currency. Also I try to buy as much BTC as I mine. Mine a coin... buy a coin. I think both ways make for a fulfilling hobby and support of community. I try not to think about the farms and PH/s that are being mined. It its what it is.
Have fun and remember to spend some BTC. That is the Purpose. Don't hoard it.

I'm with you. I've run bitcoind nodes on my computers for years. I've only recently bought my first coins, and have begun trading. I also have a couple of small Hashlets from GAW.

I just ordered a miner. Not much, a BTC Garden AM-V2 (610gh). I've configured a P2Pool node on my Linux server. I think those of us who value decentralization have to take some responsibility for the infrastructure, even if it's not "profitable." Hobby, experimentation, principles -- it's all good!

What were your achievements in running a bitcoind  these long years?

Just helping to maintain the blockchain. My PC's on 24/7 anyway, so no big deal. Running Bitcoin-Qt (and now Armory) doesn't tax my system to the detriment of my normal web surfing/streaming media/photo editing/office work. I tried CPU mining on Slush's Pool, but it bogged my system down too much for ordinary work. GPUs already had taken over by that time. I got some tiny, unpayable fraction there before I abandoned the idea.
