1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Anonymous Masternode VPS Starting at $2.50/mo | Only Crypto Accepted on: November 14, 2018, 08:22:04 PM
Virtopia is now offering Masternode VPS servers. No personal information is needed or collected and Crypto is the only payment option, too start there are the following two plans:

MN512

Product Link: https://virtopia.ca/product/mn512/
$2.50/mo
Payment Methods: Crypto only
Hypervisor: KVM
CPU: 1 core
RAM: 512MB + 1GB Swap
Disk: 20GB
Transfer: 500GB
Port: 1gbit
IPv4: 1 (read below)
IPv6: No (read below)
Location: Montreal, QC, Canada
DDOS Protected: Yes`

MN1024

Product Link: https://virtopia.ca/product/mn1024/
$5.00/mo
Payment Methods: Crypto only
Hypervisor: KVM
CPU: 1 core
RAM: 1024MB + 2GB Swap
Disk: 45GB
Transfer: 1.5TB
Port: 1gbit
IPv4: 1 (read below) Additional IPv4 are available for $1/mo.
IPv6: No (read below)
Location: Montreal, QC, Canada
DDOS Protected: Yes

IPv6

I will not offer them at this time as they are not good for any network at this time, IPv4 at $1/mo I think is a fair alternative. When IPv6 has better adoption and use they will of course become available.

2  Economy / Services / Kickassd Pure SSD Webhosting Now Accepting Crypto on: October 04, 2018, 12:37:39 AM
Some of the fastest and most reliable hosting out there, Kickassd is now accepting Crypto as a payment. Kickassd has been open since January 2016 and quietly gained a reputation for excellent performance, stability, uptime, and awesome support. Even better each and every one of the staff is a crypto enthusiast.

A short post on it from me: https://virtopia.ca/kickassd-the-king-of-crypto-hosts/

Main Page: https://kickassd.com

Given how prevalent fraud is in the hosting industry I hope we will see greater adoption of crypto as a payment in 2019!

4  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / [ANN] Virtopia Launches New RVN Blockchain Explorer on: May 08, 2018, 09:48:43 PM
Seen quite a few RVN block explorers come and go since I have been a part of RVN, as well as many that are often not up to date. I wanted a reliable and always up to date explorer for our new pool to use, so I decided to use https://github.com/underdarkskies/ravencore which is a new and amazing project by Under (RVN Discord).

This uses Insight API and UI to give you a fast, light and easily extensible explorer.

So if you want an alternative explorer using something other then Iquidus take a look at https://exp.virtopia.ca and bookmark it Smiley

Given that our new pool will utilize this explorer it is a priority for us to keep it running, and up to date. Being a man of few words and having a dislike for large flashy announcements I will leave it there.

Proof is in the pudding so they say!

I could post some big fancy flashy thread and post how awesome the pool is. I will spare you and stay true to form which is minimalistic!


About Virtopias RavenCoin Mining Pool

The pool has been a closed work in progress for about 3 weeks and just opened to the public last night. It runs on a modded UNOMP (foxer666) and is located in Singapore. I mine on it from East Canada and average ping is 140 which is really quite good so it should be suitable for most people.

The server and its services are hosted in the Cloud with high availability and automatic failover. The servers and services are monitored both internally and externally. Issue at 3am, I know about it and am rudely awakened if needed to fix it. Though that should be rare as all services are self-healing.

Fees are 1%, payout hourly (over 0.001)

Hope to see some of you join us Smiley

6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Kawwwoin - Ravencoin Exchange LTC | RVN Pair on: February 21, 2018, 06:45:45 PM
Currently trading is mostly done freestyle in RVN Discord with a few people that Escrow as they can. I am working on a simple Shapeshift type exchange that will allow people to conduct trades safely with Escrow being automated.

How It Works

- "Start Trade" button -> select rvn to ltc or ltc to rvn -> enter amount in rvn and amount in ltc -> enter your receive and refund addresses for ltc and rvn .

- Link is displayed, you give this link to the partner you are trading with.

- Your partner clicks link and checks the trade parameters. Once satisfied all is good enters receiver and refund address.

- Both partners now receive notification to add funds. Once both funds reach the agreed upon amount and are confirmed they are paid out - our fee and any miner fee

- Once transaction is finalized and in progress the page essentially becomes a tracking page and shows progress.

- There is a timeout set on transaction and should there be a timeout pending funds are refunded (after confirmations)

Doing it in this way means we do not need to maintain a currency reserve and allows us to offer the service at a low fee (TBD). We may look at adding more pairs once the service is online if there is enough interest.

I would estimate 1-2 weeks before we are ready to open for the public, but it could be a little longer.

7  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Rx 470 Prices (4GB) on: December 27, 2017, 05:51:17 PM
What are RX 470 going for right now? I have a couple of Sapphire RX 470 Nitro (4GB) I want to get rid of. One with samsung, one with Hynix. One at asic of 74 and the other asic of 84.

Have a hard time finding current pricing info on them as I couldn't find any for sale. Both do 28-29 MH/s stable (ETH).
8  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Which RX470? on: March 25, 2017, 05:35:20 PM
Currently looking to put 2 x Rx 470 in my rig to mine Ethereum.

I am just not sure which one would be best to get, has been quite awhile since I looked into vid cards!

https://www.newegg.ca/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&DEPA=0&Order=BESTMATCH&Description=rx+470&N=-1&isNodeId=1

I will probably need a new PSU? I think my current is like 650W running a AMD Black FX-8350, 16GB OCZ, Samsung 840 Pro SSD, and some old crappy vid card.
