You are free to create your own alternative that behaves in the way suggested.
Why do you assume that you can predict how anything looks in 5 years, let alone 20?

Summary:

- about 1 Month after IPO and with 8000$ converted from BTC at under 10$ per BTC rate, the shareholders are left with their 0.0x BTC payout from the 2.x gh/s mining operation
- leaves Shareholder of "assumed previous 1 BTC aka now 16$ +" with zero BTC but a virtual stake in 0.0x something BTC payout and the hope to get back to a BTC, sounds like the investment has worked out really well

Where have i implied that Tux actually a) intends to do so b) has done so c) has any malicious intent? You assume that i have said or implied that, which is simply false. I am simply pointing out that, given the size of btc economy and the predominant role of mtgox, darkpool sizing could be employed as a tool of monetary policy since it has a rather strong impact on the global btc<->fiat exchange rate, either directly on mtgox or, via arbitrage, on other trading places.
Before ad hominem attacking me, maybe you should invest time to play along with my train of thought that is in no way judging on tux.
Given the infancy and size of the economy it surely cant hurt kicking ideas around on how things actually affect the btc-verse.

Indeed, which is kind of the point of my OP, to have a public debate on this. If one would be far fetched, it could be claimed that by setting darkpool size, Tux can directly influence the price of the publicly traded BTC, much like a Central Bank can use prime rate/federal funds rate to adjust the market indirectly.

darkpool means that orders over a certain size, previously 1k $, now 10k $, are secret from the public mtgox orderstream and do not affect the pricing.
to put it mildly: it allows large traders to game the market and effectively influence pricemovements to their advantage.
given that mtgox is the only, for bitcoin economy at least, large trading entity, the darkpool size effectively governs the size of orders that are not affecting the valueation of bitcoin.

this in effect allows professional traders to buy btc cheap in darkpool at market price with huge volume, then drive the price with a smaller, but for normal trade large order, then selling off to the normal market at now increased pricing, effectively gaming the system.

i think for the bitcoin community as a whole, not having darkpools would make the system alot fairer to the average joe user.

Many argue that Bitcoin is not being influenced or possible to game. Right now we are seeing quite the opposite: Tux increased the Darkpool size from 1k$ to 10k$ orders and with little delay, the BTC valueation skyrockets since the orders under 10k$ now affect the market and exchange rate. I believe that in a way or not, the exchanges to real economies are indeed able to game the market until there is enough competition in that area and vendors accept BTC straight, reducing the need to convert.
What do you think would happen to BTC if the "Darkpools" were fully removed?
Discuss!

Excellent service!

Hi Admins of Networks of PC's, Workstations and Servers around the world,

please do not use the resources of the networks, computers and servers to mine for bitcoin. You are damaging to the bitcoin community unless you either own the company or are allowed so p.p. and mine to a "company wallet".
If you are just someone with admin rights who decides to flip on a few hundret CPU to mine, keep in mind that you are not only wasting a shitton of electricity, you are endangering your job, you are stealing electricity but you also damage the bitcoin community as a whole by aiding those "malware naysayers" that start to emerge.
Classifying bitcoin as illegal and malware is one of the first attack vectors we are already starting to materialize by the paypal etc lobby, dont help them for the pathetic gains you get. Lets just visualize the whole gains for YOU for aforementioned issues:
If you administer say 1000 PC's of avg. .edu type, you will see around 3.5mh/s per machine. Lets assume that through load and on and offtimes only 65% are mining 100% 24/7, the rest giving 12h cpu time, we would get an avg daily capacity of 2.275gh/s for 24/7 with another 1.575 gh/s for 12h, giving us a daily avg hashrate of 3gh/s for 1000 PC's steaming away at full load with unefficient PSU etc.

You not find anyone administering a network of this size being pisspoor on payday, so please use your not so shitty income to just buy 3 triple 5850 rigs, thats the same hashing power for 3k $ and 1500w electricity usage.
If that price is too high for a) being an environmentally responsible person who b) doesnt steal from his employer who c) doesnt hurt the bitcoin community by associating it with resource theft then you are, simply put, an a dot hole.

You prove yourself that you are only interested in new investors and ignore the valueation for shareholder of any BTC already in your pocket. Its not a scam, its a mining ponzi scheme you are running to fund your mining operation.

simply put: dont use diablo miner, it is a very problematic miner vs the others, just launching it has bluescreened boxes that went without a hitch for weeks up to the second diablo was launched. speedgains seem to be more of a pr thing and not something that manifests itself in actual mining with independent verification.

It's a shame and a reason why lobbygroups are bad. They claim to be "We are the net", yet it should really mean "We like to tailor politics and policy towards our intestest of maximizing monetization out of the net".
This lobbygroup recently also rallied against a law that would make broadband access everywhere mandatory to providers, even in rural areas.

And people like you is why he is still posting, there is always someone on the block investing into a get rich quick "bad investment/scam".

tried alot of settings, am about 10-20 mh/s slower than phoenix with phatk kernel, sorry, too slow.

use eligius, its 0% tax and gives a payout via generated transaction, unlike other pools you can verify in blockexplorer that indeed everything was paid out.

Come on people, this is the only pool where you can independently verify that you are getting the real payout via blockexplorer, join up!

I had exactly the same issue. I set the fan manually to 100% since it seemed to work. The fan died 2 days later it seems, and with it the card. It is RMA'ed now. I assure you the card will not be able to throttle down in time when the fan suddenly dies while mining, so either replace the fan or RMA it. I chose to not RMA it initially due to prefering mining outcome, its all taking chances.

Den Satz kannst du noch präzisieren: 
"Bei Eligius hat man als Miner den Vorteil, dass quasi 100% der 50 BTC nachvollziehbar ausgeschüttet werden", dank Blockexplorer.

stop assuming that i have no numbers to compare to.
given that he claims to have 5 rigs with 5300mh/s, the sample size is sufficient to say that its simply can not be the truth. i have about half of his claimed 5.2gh myself on btcmine myself right now and can say that i have gotten over three times as much as he did in the timeframe his rigs are supposed to be mining.
it can be with great certainity be said that given the numbers btcmine puts out the current hashrate of this total of 4900$ rigs are producing less than 1gh, yet there has been zero communication why the investors money is not being put to work to produce the return of investment.

edit: it can actually be derived from the api that the miner currently active produces over 10% less than the advertised rate: ""hashrate": "959.21""
apparently the OP was using inflated hashrate numbers for triple 5850 that are hard to realize without ample experience, may i enquire what the specific issue is?

In context of 440k diff, whats the next step given the situation is not so "peachy": "total_payout": "0.34"
Note: i bought a share to ensure that i make my case as shareholder for the sake of it.
