Yea well, I'm not fighting anyone. I was just posting some facts for you to try and understand.

As far as I'm concerned this "fight" is over. I tried to explain things to you but apparently my efforts were wasted. Therefore I will not waste any more of my time on this. Good luck to you on your endeavours, whatever they may be.

Actually it looks like there were several people among ADZbuzz members interested in my reply, you should know that since you already read those comments at ADZbuzz chat and invited me back here to read your reply.

So you are one of the few early investors. So what? So am I. You mentioned earlied today (in ADZbuzz chat) that you have around 200k ADZcoins. Big deal. That amount is pocket change compared to the amount that some ADZbuzz members have and we don't see them complaining about the price of ADZcoin. This is not a 100m dash, it's a marathon. Consider Facebook, it took them like 5 years to make it big. ADZbuzz has been around for 2-3 years.

ADZbuzz have changed their goals severals times during the past two (or so) years (you know, sh!t happens, new ideas come to fruition, plans change, etc), but they have been delivering what they have promised (earning-wise). I've no major complaints.

You say:
1) They are cheating: I call this, well FUD (and I'm being polite here).
2) Where is buyback program: Well, it's right here, alive and well.
3) Unlimited income. Where did you learn about this? I would also like to know about that.

And please, don't talk to me about the whitepaper, I'm pretty sure I know it better than you do. No offense meant of course.

Personally I'm tempted to call this utter horse manure, but since I'm a polite guy, I'll just call it FUD.

1) Maybe you don't understand how this offer works and what it means? Or maybe you're just being selfish and/or short sighted?

2) ADZbuzz is a company. How are you going to force any company to do you bidding I wonder?

3) At first I was also hoping that I could buy the ad spots with my ADZcoins. But that method would only increase demand for ADZcoins among those that don't yet own ADZcoins. The current method increases demand among all the people who want to buy an ad spot. And because ADZbuzz buys the coins from open market, it will create an upward pressure on ADZcoin's price.

4) The 10% fee ADZbuzz charges for buying the ADZcoins for you is not a big deal.
4.1) It's there to cover any upward fluctuations on ADZcoin's price, this is mentioned in the FAQ section for buying an ad spot (SAS).
4.2) ADZbuzz personnel has to make the buys on various exchanges (looking for the lowest prices) and that takes some doing. Sure, we could do this ourselves, but for many people it is easier to just make one payment in BTC than to hunt down ADZcoins for the best price on several exchanges. In other words ADZbuzz provides a service and they deserve to get paid for it.
4.3) ADZbuzz is a company. A company has employees who work for money (they need to feed their families right?). So every cent (if any) ADZbuzz earns from those sales (from that 10% fee) helps ADZbuzz to grow. More resources means more power for further development (hiring more developers, promotions etc), which would benefit the whole ADZbuzz community (not just ADZbuzz as a company).
4.4) Even if ADZbuzz were to use their own ADZcoins to fulfill the purchases for those ad spots (which AFAIK they are not), so what? Revisit point 4.3.
4.5) When you buy those 10k ADZcoins with BTC, you get an ad spot AND 10k ADZcoins. So basically you pay around 1000 ADZcoins for that ad spot. Which at current market price of ADZcoin is about 18 USD. And that ad spot is yours for as long as you keep the 10k ADZcoins in the ad spot wallet. And if you don't want to use that spot for advertising your ADZbuzz communities any more, you can just withdraw the 10k ADZcoins and sell them or whatever.

And don't forget that those free tokens will also generate more income and it adds up over time

And DCR has been mined with ASIC's for a while now, at least the Baikal Giant B can mine DCR (I have a few of those mining DCR atm).

Are you seriously mining Onix with a CPU? 

That is a very bad idea. Mining Onix (or any other X11 algorithm coin) even with GPU's is a very bad idea. X11 coins are in the domain of ASIC miners and mining X11 coins with CPU/GPU is horrendously unprofitable, you'll just waste your time, electricity and money.

If you want to use your CPU(s) to mine, mine a coin that can be mined with CPU's only.

Hello Ajay.

Like nid125 said, do NOT mine ADZ with GPU's, you will earn almost no ADZ and you will just lose money in the form of higher electricity bills. If you want to use your GPU to earn ADZcoins, it's better to use it to mine some other (ASIC-resistant) coin like Ethereum and then sell the ETH you earn for Bitcoins and then buy ADZ with those Bitcoins. That is how I'm using my GPU's. I'm mining ETH with 15 R9 Nano's (their combined total hashrate is about 399 MH/s) and they make me about 28 USD per day. My electricity cost is about 0.1 USD per KWh, so after electricity costs those GPU's make me about 20 USD profit per day at the moment. And with the current prices of eth/btc/adz that earns me around 465 ADZ per day.

I hope this gives you some idea on how to use (or not) your GPU to earn ADZ.

You didn't specify the exact model of the Radeon GPU you have, so I can't give you exact numbers. There is a web page somewhere that has ETH mining performance info on many different GPU's, but I could not at this time find it, but try googling it, it's out there somewhere

Thanks JensS for you answer. Friday seemed to be an all around bad day, in addition to ADZbuzz I had trouble getting to the forums and I also had trouble getting here (got "site is busy ..." on severall occasions). But it's all good now.

Thanks JenS et al for informing us about this problem. Tbh you could have informed us about it earlier, since it's been bugging us all day.

But it is good to know that this problem is not with ADZbuzz, although I was kinda hoping that this was caused by a sudden increase of traffic to ADZbuzz

Yes.


Been busy, but I tried to register with yet another username & e-mail, but got the same result: "The page you requested was not found.".

So, the registration must be broken, I can't believe that I'm so unlucky that my *every* attempt fails regardless of the time of the attempt (even if the problem is an intermittent one I should have succeeded at some point).

It doesn't make any sense to try again and again since it clearly doesn't work. I'm out of e-mail adresses and I won't be creating more just to test this, you can do that quite well yourself.


I get it, but this method has a couple of problems for me:
1) I hate Skype
2) Time zone difference: I work long days and when I get home from work it's already way past midnight in Australia.

Anyway, I hope you get thefarm fixed asap and as I said before I'm in no hurry, I'll be back mining at CWI pools as soon as I can.

And as a disclaimer:
I am an old fart, I've been making my living as a software developer for the past 30 years or so, so I'm not a complete noob in these things.

Thanks mate

And thanks for taking the time to post such a long and detailed reply. However, I already knew all those things. Trust me, I have read (pretty much) all you posts here (BCT) since June 2015, including the posts on your temporary account "crysx" that you used before getting this one re-activated.

I know you're busy with thefarm and I'm in no particular hurry, so I'm not going to bother you directly, instead I'll just post this here so you can read it at your convenience.


Oops, I forgot to mention my GB mining, I did that also for a while at your GB-pool 


I think you misunderstood my previous post a bit. My point was that the registration *still* doesn't work. Just to make sure I just now tried to register again (different account name & e-mail of course) and after clicking the link in the confirmation e-mail I got this:


You seem to have some hashpower at the GRN-pool atm, and statistics show that a couple of other miners have also found a couple of blocks at the pool this March. So, I don't understand how they managed to register and I can't.

Anyways, I'll be back mining at the CWI-pools as soon as I can, after all your GRN-pool (and GB also) used to be my "home pool" for a long time.

And I hope you get thefarm up and running as soon as possible also, I'm sorry to hear about the disaster that hit it.

Who knows, he might have been lurking here for years without registering  

I appreciate your concern for my disappearance, so I decided to finally register on BCT and explain what happened.

First a few historical facts so you know I'm the same guy and not some troll who decided to bust your balls.

I mined GRN on the old pool more or less continuously starting at June 2015, first with some old GPUs and later with one or two ASICs after I got my hands on some Baikals, which happened at June 2016 iirc. A while back (November/December 2016 before the old GRN-pool was decomissioned) you mentioned me mining at the old pool continuously hashing at 200MH, but that was actually just one Baikal mini (unless of course some of my other Baikals jumped to the GRN-pool for a bit due to disconnects on other pools or whatever). Oh, and my donation percentage at the old GRN-pool was set at 2% for a long time, not right from the beginning though.

My "getting lost" happened like this:

When the old GRN-pool was about to be decomissioned I tried to move to the new one (December 2016 iirc). Problem was, the registration did not work. Clicking the link in the confirmation e-mail resulted in a "Page not found" on the pool site. So, the account was locked. I then tried to use the Unlock-function that was supposed to send me an e-mail with instructions on how to unlock the account (Yes, an attempt born out of desperation, I know). That e-mail never arrived. I tried to register with 3 different e-mail addresses before I gave up. Then I tried the Contact-function (to report the problem) but that resulted in an error (can't remember the exact error message). So I gave up on the new pool and moved on to Aikapool to mine GRN.

After the newest pool system with SSO came online I tried to return to CWI to mine GRN, but the same problem persisted. The registration did not work, again the "Page not found" error after clicking the link in the confirmation e-mail. This time however the Contact-function seemed to work. I was able to submit my error report, but I never received any answer to that so I have no idea if that message was actually delivered. So I stayed at Aikapool's GRN-pool.

10 days (ish) ago the current MUE/DASH boom began and I moved all my capable ASICs to mine those. After this boom winds down I'm going to put some hashpower into GRN once again. Assuming of course that I can find a working GRN-pool That being said, Aikapool's GRN-pool has been out of commission for the last few days, for some reason their pool says "Wallet not sync! 0 work nodes found! Try later..". Perhaps they should add some nodes to their wallet conf or upgrade the wallet ...

Being a long time supporter of GRN (mining, buying) it's a shame that I can't mine at CWI pools, I hope I can do that in the future. And come to think of it, I also tried to mine OZC at the old OZC-pool but iirc it also had the registration problem (wayyy back in 2016) and I ended up mining OZC at Aikapool.

P.S.
I don't think that the registration problem is on my end since I've had no such problems on numerous other pool sites using the same software.
