if my calcs are right, a block every 30min @ 500Mh/s would be ~.000332 BTC /Mh/s I believe that is a decent round, in comparison to our current crop of coins. Of course, it wouldn't take much bad luck to swing that quite a bit the wrong way.
I'm no statistical genius but if we mined the most profitable coin (even with a 30 min average block) in the medium/long term then we would still win out even if some rounds did not yield a coin? In other words if the BTC-per-minute-mined of a coin was the consistently the highest would it matter if the block was achieved in a number of shorter rounds some of which did not yield anything? Just throwing it out there for finer minds than mine to consider. You are absolutely correct, but most miners don't look at it over the long term. A few rounds with no reward will lead to a bad day and they will start filling up this forum complaining. Just read over the other multi coin pools' threads. And they would have a point. Miners are not supposed to have loyalty to a pool that does not have loyalty to a coin |

Guys,
everything is rebrand exept the R9 290X
HD7970 = 280X
HD7850 = 270X
HD7770 = 260X
The 260X is similar to a 7790 iirc, but with "true audio". It's not a rebranding. So, The R9 290 boasts 2,560 stream processors, the current top model, HD7970 has 2048.
Simple math tells us that the 290X should have around 20% better results than a 7970.
So lets say a HD7970 gets to 750Kh/s, a R9 290X should get around 900Kh/s. The 290 series have 512 bit bus and the 290X has 2816 stream processors. So, we'll be looking at 1Mh/s |

They are "better" because they provide higher Mh/$. The rest is configurable (clock speed, voltage, power consumption, heat, noise), even in the worst case of needing to hex edit and flash a bios.

Recent cgminer allows a quota per pool, so you can set that quota high for hashco.ws
Cool  Thanks for the tip. But I thought all recent versions of CGminer were crap for scrypt coins so I never updated again after 3.3.1 Can I assume from your post that this has been fixed? What version are you using? If I use the "quota" command with the pools, do I still have to set the strategy to load-balance? I'm using 3.4.3, and hashrate is fine. You need to use load-balance, yes. |

At the beginning of cgminer.conf, I have:
{
"pools" :
[
{
"quota" : "99;stratum+tcp://stratum01.hashco.ws:8888",
"user" : "Wipeout2097.1",
"pass" : "x"
},
{
"url" : "stratum+tcp://pool1.us.multipool.us:3342",
"user" : "Wipeout2097.1",
"pass" : "x"
}
]
,
"intensity" : "20,20",
...
That allocates 99% to hashcows and 1% elsewhere. When hashcows.ws is down, either for a while or switching coins, cgminer picks work from the other pool.
|

|

Whenever the stratum server goes down or sometimes on coin switches cgminer hangs and does not continue, it doesn't even respond to key presses. I tried using cgwatcher but that reduces the hash rate by 10-15%. Is there anyway of making cgminer more robust?
Sometimes I use load-balance between this pool and other. It's the only way I know to avoid that problem. Recent cgminer allows a quota per pool, so you can set that quota high for hashco.ws |

No doubt then you can point us to the charities he donated his profits from the site to? And he was the CEO of Good Wagon Books, a non-profit that picks up used books and other junk from your house and donates it to prison libraries and such. And? Bernie Madoff was a major philanthropist who stole money from thousands of people. Someone's good works in one part of life do not, in any way, excuse trying to murder people. You are the idiot with their head in the sand. A couple of lines that are a complete contradiction with everything he has stood for and you are ready to right him off as a murder. You are the one who asked for his charitable works Go fuck yourself statist. Wow, you are insane! You go as far as glorifying criminals for political or ideological reasons! Not even mentioning the way that Silkroad was dragging down the Bitcoin scene. |

Pool is down, I guess. So, what's a good failover for this one?
|

What pools/coins do you guys use or recommend as failover for this one?

I didn't buy anything from BFL, so I'm fine. But are you trying to say that people shouldn't sue BFL?
|
|
|
|

You guys should collectively sue BFL. Seriously. It's unbeliveable how much money they have scammed.
It is not unlawful to delay pre-orders, but when someone behaves unethically and with contempt, tends to cross other lines and commit accessory crimes.

So what if it was malware? Do you realize the kind of crap you get by visiting a website without a blocker like Ghostery?
For 0.06 BTC, just download and use the toolbar inside a virtual machine!

Quick question: can or cannot a powerful actor, like an opressive government compromise bitcoin? For example, run multiple rogue bitcoin full nodes and modifying source code according to their best interest. What is the worst that can happen?
Thanks.

Oh, this site is nice, regardless of the webmaster's age! I must whitelist it on my adblocker and will check your progress once in a while I wish I had a clue about php, or better said, that it didn't get on my nerves. |
