I started a pool poll over at spreadcointalk. http://spreadcointalk.org/index.php?topic=99.0Let's vote if we should continue this old thread or the new self-moderated one. I have changed my mind (after seeing how the new thread has been going the last few days) and I think that it would be much better to continue with this old thread, and delete the new one. Please vote.

I love that this thread is still active and going strong. You are quite right! The facts have been greatly manipulated by a handful of people in that fake thread. When will you tire yourself out, kid? Isn't it time for you to go to bed, or to school, or something?

BCT is deleting posts like crazy, even in this moderated thread.
I got a "Voted" post deleted, and even the post where I created the meme with mr.t was deleted. Crazy.
So everybody who thinks that this is part of the self-moderating, it is NOT.
Only obvious copy-paste trolls will get deleted, but if you have been deleted for another reason, it was probably a BCT moderator.
So you are saying even though this is a self moderated thread that the BCT moderators can still delete whatever they want? Then what is the point? LOL I mean it is starting to come across as some sort of conspiracy theory if you ask me LOL like we aren't safe here lol but seriously can they still delete posts off this thread as well? If so then what would be the point of having the two threads? Just curious and asking questions The point is to delete the constant troll posts, you know the constant copy paste quote walls with big red letters etc? You don't see them here anymore, right? That's because of our self-moderation process. But BCT has their own rules, and ofcourse they have total control over everything posted here. But they will only delete posts they deem spam. They don't go after trolls, as they explain here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=787308.0

That's also the reason they don't allow "coin giveaway threads" because they create a lot of these "spammy" posts. It probably helps keep their servers stable. And they delete those posts to discourage users from acting like that.

Why the 2 threads?
Fudders took over. It was Hard for us to actually come up with ideas and work with the constant spam. Who is the "US' to work on this coin? Who does SpreadCoin consist of in the team? I was under the understanding that Mr. Spread created this coin by himself? There is an actual team behind this coin now? I would love to hear who the other people involved with this are There is a whole "gang" forming around Mr. Spread over at spreadcointalk. It's a decentralized gang, also known as "dang"!

Soon there will be only one again (and the other locked forever). This is just a short transformation phase.

Looks like we are going to have a little overshoot: If we overshoot that could potentially support the idea of profit switching scripts triggering in mass. Depends on the difficulty retarget I guess. It happened! We passed 60. That's strong!

So for me it was a win/win situation.
Excellent! Keep hunting for win/win situations.

I'll just add my $0.02 about the drop. I know like the two cents my advice isn't worth much.
But for me I mined DGB a long while ago and racked up a bunch. The price was at a perfect selling point. Also the difficulty in it made it worth while for me to completely stop mining SPR and switch back to DGB for now to rack some more up and hold for the future. I can say at the pool there is a miner with 712 Mh/s, one with 442 Mh/s and others that are high. Now are these the people who stopped mining SPR? Probably not, but there is a lot more hash on DGB right now than it was yesterday when I started mining it.
So even though myself and some others might be a big believer in SPR if another opportunity approaches somewhere else people might take advantage of quick profits.
Ofcourse, you don't owe SPR anything. It's your decision ONLY where you want to point your hashing power. And it's SPRs job to offer something valuable, so that it attracts miners. The customer is king. Or quoting the biggest capitalist I have ever known:

When people switch over to another coin that is being pumped, do they actually earn more or they are just chasing the profit while their blocks are being matured and their coins being exchanged?
I guess it depends on how savvy you are, and if you listen to someone else or do your own research. It's all about the lag, and how fast you react. IMHO switching to a coin after it is clear that it is being pumped is NEVER profitable, and is like trying to catch a falling knife, because when everybody and his mother realizes that something is a pump, it's not a pump anymore, that's when it has turned into a DUMP.

As an investor in SpreadCoin it kind of worries me to see it has become such a mess, or am I seeing things the wrong way? And what's all the fuss about private pools, is it actually true?
Just wondering... Because what I'm reading in the various SpreadCoin topics doesn't really make me confident, unless it's nothing but FUD ofcourse.
Your first source for spreadcoin news and topics should be http://spreadcointalk.orgThis way, you have a guarantee that no FUD is going to influence you. Critical minds are welcome there, so come join us.

d. Multiple medium size farms switching to more profitable alts for awhile that are being pumped.
Exactly. This seems the most plausible explanation. The lesson here is clear: Keep solo-mining, even if it seems unprofitable. Because when the difficulty drops like this again, you are going to be happy about the extra SPR!

But If I was to have a slick GPU miner in that wallet that could light a fire under the 2 new smoking hot AMD or Nvidia crossfire cards in my "gaming rig"... That would be a wallet I'd be interested in installing because I could mine some change when I wasn't gaming, AND get benchmark and tweaking incentives that I could share and compare with my friends.
I'd want something like that... easy Bundling the mining software into spreadcoin shouldn't be much of a problem. We can make the wallet communicate with sgminer running in the background without the need for any commandline tweaking. The only problem might be that people will need to update to the newest catalyst driver versions etc... Not sure we could or should control the installation and update of GPU drivers over the wallet. Other than that, an in-wallet-GPU-miner is very possible, and I would love to see one.

I can't vote ? Do i need more posts to be able to see the vote button or sth ? Anyways, i just noticed something... WE ARE NOT ON WIKIPEDIA ! YET ! Bitcoin / Litecoin / Darkcoin are there, so are other major coins theres, even POTcoin is there . Its time to get started and list it there. I mentioned in IRC before to others, but i'm just a guy from the construction industry so my IT knowledge is very very limited, but i really do suggest that someone more knowledgeable write up a spreadcoin article there, because basically nowadays everyone google-fu for somethings first, then wikipedia it the next when the information offered isn't enough, else wikipedia links would also be at the first page of that google search, next thing they'd youtube it. So since we have people working on the video, who is up to do some simple tech writing ? Wikipedia has a guideline called the genereal notability guideline: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability#General_notability_guidelineOver the past two years I have seen many altcoins starting a wikipedia site only to have it deleted a few weeks/months later. Or look at darkcoin, they still have the general notability warning on their wiki site, threatening a deletion at some point in the future: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DarkcoinOTOH, Mazacoin has reached all the notability it needs: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MazaCoinI guess that's because of the Max Keiser and Mashable interviews etc... that can be considered big press I guess... I guess this is not the right time to create a spreadcoin wikipedia site yet. We need to first be more spread out over the internet: More press, more blogs, more discussion, more services, more interviews... and then we will have all the necessary notability. Spreadcoin is also very much "work in progress" and "under construction", so better wait until we have a finished product Don't get me wrong, I think spreadcoin is very notable as it is, but I am sure that wikipedia will not agree. But still: if someone wants to start a wikipedia site, I say go for it, we might keep it alive like darkcoin does. But it'll be a gamble.

Wow - did anyone notice the hash rate drop below 3gh? I woke up this morning to a hell of a lot more SPR... I love those little SPRs Yeah, noticed that too. Maybe the FUD got in the head of some big mining farmer. Or he found another coin to rape. Well, anyway.... this is a good time to enter the solo-mining-business.

If HunterMinerCrafter (see his posts) was here, i'm sure he'd create a pool. But he disappeared 3 months ago. I've always wondered if he was Satoshi. Maybe he was.
It is reassuring that only the disappeared crazies with supposed satoshi level would try to create a pool. It somehow proves my point. He was trying to prove spreadcoin wrong with the "no pools" but he said he'd need to wait until some technology is invented for it to work. Ah now I see... that's the reason he disappeared... he is on a quest to find some alien artefacts in some desert.
