They can't count but they're on Facebook?  Stonehedge hopelessly futile bitcoin solo mining update: Diff:41.3G(295.4Ph) BS:277k (!!!) AMU 0: | 2.13/ 2.12/ 2.22Gh/s AMU 1: | 2.13/ 2.12/ 2.19Gh/s Everybody pray to the hashing gods for me. If I mine a block before 7th Feb (1 in x million chance) we're going to have an extra special honeymoon (and a few extra DRK. Fuck you megafarms! I'm coming after your blocks with my antminers! |

This is a little insulting to Evan (lead dev at Darkcoin). He posts an update and next steps report after each version bump and I can see nothing in this update that deviates from his roadmap from three months ago. Congrats on the seemingly successful testnet launch all. |

what.... what else are you programmed to do... ; )
Feed me coins and find out.  |

Where?
Quiet day on Cryptsy apart from a bite at Otoh's wall.
It's probably a bot posting that. I am Stonehedgebot. What are your instructions? Buy more DRK. Donate BTC to Stonehedgebot and Stonehedgebot will buy more DRK. Don't give me orders bot.  I am programmed simply to please. |

had to un-shit my pants - realized posts originally from 2013. because someone asked how long would it take, someone pointed 1ths or so, and had a block in no time. i was... excited and confused.
someone recently lucked one with nominal hashing considering the task. just luck.
there's a difference between hashing and catching.
Lottery sells hope, solo mining sells loss. There is no way around using a pool now, then the luck turns the other way: tiny revenue in comparison to ruffled looking raffle tickets. Isn't mining only for companies that can construct ASIC's now, and even then most of them fail. And for desperately hopeful romantics feeling lucky... |

Their info is outdated. I believe this potential vulnerability has been identified and fixed. Any devs able to confirm this? |

I've mined for ages at 3.4mh/s and still nothing, yet the only way is to solo mine  Even your 3.4 mh/s help the decentralization process very much. I plan to mine with this amount of Hash too soon. Not because I expect to find many blocks, but because it will help the SPR I bought to keep their value, and it will help the decentralization process. So you have 0.1% of the total hashrate in your control, look at it this way. Keep that up, and buy SPR while they are cheap. EDIT: if you have an account with a legacy bank you need to pay a monthly fee. With cryptos you have to pay this fee too, in the form of hashing equipment and electricity. That's how I look at it. I neglected to mention that the act of mining itself helps secure the network even if you aren't making many SPR out of it. Apologies. |

price approaching to otoh's walking wall. its a strong wall be careful  hm, wall is not so big... Price try to go at 0.006 again? lol, not on my shift, that wall is an iceberg, there's at least 2/3 more of it invisible under the water, ie that I'll add if it starts to show any serious signs of melt at all. Otoh , People are pressing price down at risk, If you would buy all up towards 0.0070 I think there would be panic of those who lost their DRK. Still big respect for all you do at the moment. Yeah, I would like to see those dumpers panicking and buying at loss . Well I'm going to sleep now, I doubt anyone will take too much out of the wall, but whatever they do then I'll put it back to 100 BTC again in about 8 hours time np. Edit, yep someone/s took approx 33 BTC worth of the 100 BTC wall out, thanks for the DRK, I'm too tired and jet lagged to top it back up atm, will put it back to 100 BTC worth or more after sleeping. The always hungry & the dumpers   You forget the always hungry who have too many bills and other commitments to afford to join the feast |

I've mined for ages at 3.4mh/s and still nothing, yet the only way is to solo mine Its a solo mining arms race. You either need to set up a private pool as some people have done (with escrow, mutlisig or other arrangements to prevent theft of mining) or get yourself a bigger rig. The network hash rate is very high for the likes of your or I with one or two GPUs to burn. |

is this underground?
No. Lots of concrete in this building, very good for heat dissipation. If your cooling fails you will find that the concrete might work against you for a few days afterwards. I design data centres for a living, or at least that is one of the things that my company does. We've been called into DCs with completely failed cooling to provide advice and found that concrete walls can take up to 4 days to cool down from peak ambient temperature. This puts huge load on your cooling when it comes back online again. One medium sized concrete DC I remember had a total cooling failure for 24 hours (the customers didn't power down for whatever reason) and the walls stayed at 40 degrees celsius for over 48 hours. Assume that thick concrete walls will act as storage heaters if something goes wrong and factor that into your cooling calculations. As for high ceilings, I'm not sure what to think. I've always been schooled to minimise the volume of the area to be cooled but maybe there is something to be said for a convective tower effect. It seems a little non standard to me though as airflow is king. Might you consider putting in a false ceiling? |

Maybe I should switch my two antminers off then. Hope dies hard EDIT: Maybe I'll keep them running for a couple more weeks. We're off on honeymoon 9 months late due to work commitments and a solo mined block would be a hugely fortuitous way to pimp our break You've got to be in it to win it! |

Come on mighty antminers....solo mine me a block. Daddy needs a new pair of shoes |
|
|

Hold the ranks boys/girls... I was able to get 2600 now. Not too shabby.
Come on, just 6BTC will bring you back up to today's highest price! Surely somebody has 6BTC worth of faith to invest? |

I bet there are one or two IRC and Skype chat logs that would make good reading from the last hour or two. Sadly my Russian isn't up to much.
We all knew pools were possible so why this dump? This doesn't hang together for me.

Of course...private pool. Invitation only. Possibly using multi sig or similar to prevent somebody running off with the funds. Nice thinking.
yeah,private pool,but it means pool works,solo-minig was cracked,not any no solo-pool any longerSpeaking as a Spreadcoin sceptic with a large vested interest in Darkcoin, I'm putting this chump or chumpette on ignore. Don't rise to it Mr Spread. |

As Bitcoin prices in the new US exchange, the rise is now showing up as a breakout on the 1-Week chart. Lets see how far it goes...next all time high should be around $6,000 per bitcoin which would put DRK at $30...(masternode valuation = $30,000).  If this turns out to be true I'll be a very happy man. |
