1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Scrypt.CC | Scrypt Cloud Mining on: August 30, 2015, 11:51:29 PM
After cutting my losses the other day, after the whole KHS to MHS fiasco, selling all my newly minted MHS and withdrawing what I had left, I've been patiently waiting these last few days for my withdrawel to hit my wallet.

I logged in today to check on things and magically my withdrawal has been cancelled and all money re-invested in MHS, as a much higher price! WTF?!?

It goes without saying that Auto Invest was turned back on.

What a joke.

Yep, 37k KHS missing and Trade History deleted. Withdrawals stuck since August 13th.

I kind of wasn't convinced one way or the other, and thought maybe Marcelo is just a bit incompetent.

With the missing KHS and deleted Trade History, I'm now firmly of the opinion that this is a big fat scam.

Try this thread, from the bottom of Page 44 onwards:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1000860.860

It's an existing poker site, with a very nice interface in my opinion, which allows play through a web browser. I believe they've struggled to attract players and the owner now wants to sell.

I bought a code last night and it all worked fine. No problems.

Feldenthorne correctly answers the first Magi Trivial Pursuit question.

Here's the thread to read his answer:

http://m-talk.org/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=92

10 Magi to Feldenthorne, but there's still the opportunity to win 15 Magi if you can post something interesting concerning the answer to this question.

I've got 4 in Google Cloud as well:
Machine type   
n1-highcpu-2 (2 vCPU, 1.8 GB memory)
CPU platform   
Intel Ivy Bridge

Each VM is only putting out ~9kH/s though...what am I doing wrong?  I'm using m7magi-cpuminer-v2 as my miner; is there a better one out there?


I'm using Wolf's M7M miner:

It looks like Azure changed their free trial rules and their pricing.  The 20 CPU limit seems to be gone, but pricing wise it seems like you get the best bang for your buck if you have lots of little A0 VMs instead of a few big ones (the cheapest is ~$14/month, which goes pretty far against the free $200 you get).

So far, I'm seeing over 2kH/s on each worker, which by itself sucks Smiley, but multiplied out might make a difference.  I'll let you know how it goes...

Nice update.

I'm mining using some instances on Google Cloud compute.

I have four n1-standard-2 instances, which are the largest that can be used during the free trial. The hash rate is a bit variable, but in general I'm seeing somewhere between 12-17kH/s for each core (I run each on a separate worker). At times I've seen them as high as 23-24kH/s.

In 13 days I've burned $42 of my $300 trial credit. It all has to be used in 60 days.

I also had $25 credit at AWS. I've been running a c4.large EC2 spot instance over there, which usually has a slightly higher hash rate than the Google instances.

Building on the great idea of Lightsplasher and his mountain in disguise (I hope he doesn't mind), I've started a game of Magi Trivial Pursuit over on the m-talk.org forum.

Further details are available on this thread:

http://m-talk.org/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=92

Answers may only be posted on that forum, and therefore you will need to register there.

There will be 10 questions. The first correct answer receives a 10 Magi reward, but the best answer receives a 15 Magi reward. More details at the above link. I hope a few people decided to play and it turns out to be a bit of fun.

Awesome Joe.
Registration for the Proof of Mining is open.
Well done!
One thing there must be adjusted.
Thats rule number 3.
I know thats in there for security reasons but let me work something out for this.

I 2nd this.

I agree as well.

I've not posted on this forum very much, because I don't have a lot to contribute to the discussion yet. However, I have posted in the Magi topic on Reddit, I have asked CoinGecko to fix their broken link to the Magi website and I'm actively buying Magi across three exchanges.

I'd love to be part of the PoM, but I'm not going to post another 40 responses on here just to do so.

Code:
Debian GNU/Linux 6.0 \n \l


Maybe try installing libgmp3-dev.

Details of libgmp in Squeeze:

I do like the fact that more power doesn't necessarily mean more coins. However, I think any hard limit on mining power needs to be thought through carefully. If a hard limit was applied to specific mining users, then they may just register under a different name or wallet, multiple times, and keep hashing thousands of KHs.

The idea of a limit for the PoM is a good idea, but again, how does one prevent people splitting their hashing power across multiple wallet and users? I don't know the answers, but something to think about.

People could do that, fully in the knowledge that it would be equally as futile as hashing away with 5000 K/hs Sad


I guess my point was that if people want to over-mine, for whatever reason, hard limits for individual users in pools or the PoM won't actually solve the problem. I don't know what will, but a simple hard limit might not achieve the desired result.

Thanks for the additional links on the Sweet Spot miner and the PoS too.

My first post here now that I've paid the bitcointalk.org extortion fee (apparently connecting with the ZenMate browser privacy plugin active results in a block on posting. B0.00081322 to be paid before allowed to post.).

I was very interested to find Magi earlier this week, and posted some feedback on GitHub regarding building the wallet on Linux. I've been mining on xmgpool.org since then.

Spexx, any thoughts of a Linux version of your sweet spot miner?

Where can I find more information on Proof of Staking? Or is it really just as easy as keeping my wallet open and sending all my coins to another of my addresses?

Why does everyone talk here and not over on m-talk.org? I understand the need for visibility here on BTC, but the last post on Magi's own dedicated forum was March 2nd. Perhaps things like the Proof of Mining could also be announced over on that location?

Same with Reddit, although I've just reposted the Coinsource story (a few posts earlier).

Shapeshift.io is advertising quite a bit lately, but Magi is not listed there. Can someone from the core team approach them about adding it? I was pleased to see Magi on Bleutrade.

The enthusiasm here is great and hopefully Magi is a coin for the future.
