Hi all, I am testing a new bitcoin lottery. For now you can win 0.1 0.2 0.3 BTC every week. I know it's not much but it's totally free to participate - just leave your bitcoin address in comments.

Every draw is visible to public to make it clear and fair - powered by RandomPicker service.

No, they don't count CPUs nor instances but HOURS. You have 750 hours per month. 1 instace 24/7 = 24*30 = 720 hours per month - it's free. 2 instances = 2 * 24*30 = 1440 - 750 = 690 hours to pay etc.

Here is a nice calculator for this:
http://calculator.s3.amazonaws.com/calc5.html

And about a micro instance:
Quote
Micro Instances - Instances of this family provide a small amount of consistent CPU resources and allow you to burst CPU capacity when additional cycles are available. They are well suited for lower throughput applications and web sites that consume significant compute cycles periodically. Micro Instance 613 MB of memory, up to 2 ECUs (for short periodic bursts), EBS storage only, 32-bit or 64-bit platform.

Free tier has 750 hours of EC2 running Linux/Unix Micro instance usage per month. So if you have one micro instance you can use it all month 24/7 for free.

no longer profitable. 
But you can try it for free mining CPU coins:

What about mining tenebrix with the cpu in this baby ?

Maybe that makes it profitable ?

Not really now, but you can mine CPU coins (Litecoin, Tenebrix) for free:

Here is a quick guide. You need basic+ linux skills. You will get from 0.2 to 1.5 khash/sec completely free.

1. Join Amazon EC2. They offer free tier for new users for 12 months:

Quote
As part of AWS’s Free Usage Tier, new AWS customers can get started with Amazon EC2 for free. Upon sign-up, new AWS customers receive the following EC2 services each month for one year:

    750 hours of EC2 running Linux/Unix Micro instance usage
    750 hours of Elastic Load Balancing plus 15 GB data processing
    10 GB of Amazon Elastic Block Storage (EBS) plus 1 million IOs and 1 GB snapshot storage
    15 GB of bandwidth out aggregated across all AWS services
    1 GB of Regional Data Transfer

So as a new user you will get 750 hours of EC2 running Linux/Unix Micro instance usage.
And what is a micro linux instance?

Quote
Micro Instance 613 MB of memory, up to 2 ECUs (for short periodic bursts), EBS storage only, 32-bit or 64-bit platform

Not much, it will mine with 0.2 to 1.5 khash/sec. But you'll get it for free.

2. Launch a new micro linux instance, donwload and run cpuminer. Mine for free. This might be useful for step 2:

Code:
sudo yum -y groupinstall "Development Tools"
sudo yum -y install git libcurl-devel python-devel screen rsync

git clone https://github.com/ArtForz/cpuminer.git
cd cpuminer
./autogen.sh
./configure
make -j
nohup ./minerd --algo scrypt -s 6 --threads 2 --url http://yourpool --userpass user:pass

Enjoy.

There are almost 1,000,000 LTC now.
What do you think - how many LTC will there be by the end of the year ?
Is this an opinionated question of some kind? The generation over time is more or less completely predictable.
But still it depends on how many people use LTC now and how many will be in next months.

796  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which altcoin will succeed ? on: October 13, 2011, 08:01:49 PM
I think the Alt Cryptocurrencies subforum here is obviously a little more open minded to all coins, I wonder how the results would look if Bitcoin was a choice.
I created this poll for alternate coins only because I'm totally sure that Bitcoin will remain #1 digital coin. Despite this I think there's enough space for another coin which will become a real alternative to BTC. Not competition but an alternative. Something like gold and silver.
797  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which altcoin will succeed ? on: October 13, 2011, 07:20:31 PM
absolutely none of them.
but what about newbies & CPU miners, people who don't want to invest in fast GPUs, they started too late for getting a decent amount of bitcoins so CPU currencies are their chance now
798  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Which altcoin will succeed ? on: October 13, 2011, 07:02:41 PM
I am just curious. For which coin it's worth to invest your pc power, what do you think ?
799  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Litecoin - a lite version of Bitcoin. Launched! on: October 13, 2011, 06:18:38 PM

Typo on the worker page, it's _1 and password 1, not letters sorry.
Still something wrong with stats - I've been mining for 10 mins but no stats (still 0 active workers), then it logged me out

Litecoin pool. Consider it experimental right now , and toss a core on it and register real quick. It worked perfectly on the testnet. Now it's giving me a longpool every minute exactly, and I haven't had a share in 15 minutes from one computer. Stats are all reset and it is pointed to the production server.

Give me some feedback and I'll go from there.

I think the worker user/pass is not <LTC_address>_a:a, <LTC_address>_b:b but <LTC_address>_1:1, <LTC_address>_2:2 and so on
