Don't leave your Microcash in an exchange account over night! Trade trade trade or it will disappear!!  Cheesy
Already cashed out the BTC Wink

Everybody's search results vary, if your logged into a Google account (Gmail, Youtube) it will try to personalize your results get a complete profile of you and put sites you click on frequently at the top. If your not signed in, it will use what people in your area like to help personalize your results squeeze more advertising dollars from your visit.
Fixed for you. http://dontbubble.us/ Wink

Anyway, although I agree that MicroCash is at best an awful pseudo-cryptocurrency, and at worst a "scam", this report seems quite full of BS and isn't really helping. It probably just gives bad publicity to the cryptocurrency community as a whole...
144  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Litecoins--Dead or Alive? on: May 10, 2012, 11:06:34 AM
if I rent a VPS to mine the litecoin, will the VPS service provider ban my account?  It's using KVM.
I good provider shouldn't ban you maybe if you was taking up too many resource's on the VPS?  Anyway it probably makes a lot more sense to use the money you would spend on the VPS to buy litecoin at an exchange.  You'd probably get more LTC at the moment.
A good VPS provider doesn't sell more CPU power than he has... In my country, at least, that's what VPS providers do (I saw offers in other countries where it wasn't the case at all indeed) - so a VPS is really just like a tiny dedicated server. No crappy random burstable RAM and CPU, you just get what you pay for.

As for the original question, yeah I think it's quite dormant. Steadily losing value and no recent news as far as I know. Also, hashrate has dropped quite a bit despite the release of a GPU miner.

This guy is clearly being paid minimal wage because he can't spare less a cent a dayCheesy
It's a matter of principle. Evaporating cryptocurrency isn't a match for non-evaporating real cash imo. I mean, in a system advertising itself as free from a central authority, having someone removing stuff from your wallet like the government directly debiting taxes from your account, or like e-gold slowing draining accounts when they went rogue, it's fairly discrediting I think...
146  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: SolidCoin 3.0 (aka MicroCash) will have a daily fee for each address you have. on: May 09, 2012, 06:45:23 PM
Transactions done up to today are only the beginning. Are we really going to drag around 2, 3, 4... years of transactions? WHY?

Because my coins are there, and I really want to keep them. I don't want my coins to evaporate because you can't spare a little hard drive space. What sort of crap system do you have? Even my phone can run a Bitcoin client just fine.
It's not a matter of crappy hardware, it's a matter of not wasting hardware. Some people like to overuse their hardware, which results in their computer - no matter how powerful - is always cluttered and slow as hell (I've got a close friend who's like that, he's very computer aware yet has a system as optimized as the worst computer illiterate, only not with the same kind of junk). I'm not one of them. I like my hardware being as underused as possible, so I can run whatever I do need to run at the highest possible speed. Which make me not like very much some I/O hungry application which also happens to use a non-negligible amount of HD.
Granted it's not a big deal at the current level, but again, I can only foresee big trouble with 100 times the amount of users and transactions. Nothing urgent there, and I surely don't want my coins to evaporate either, but a solution will have to be found at some point. Denying the issue can only make things worse, delaying the research of solutions. Just because there are many things wrong about ScamCoin doesn't mean all ScamKing says is rubbish: resource usage is a real potential issue, even though it's not a dramatic problem at this very moment or (hopefully) in the near future.

I do not have access to the e-mails. I will get them all in 2 weeks. All I do is deal with the public and pay money.
I hope we'll have a little time then to resubmit if some e-mails happen to have been lost...

Who, where?  Please show me one single post on the forums here about somebody complaining about the Satoshi client's resource usage or performance.
Not trying to defend the ScamCoin there, but actually a whopping 1GiB wasted in a not too easily configurable folder/partition is actually a bit of a PITA, not to mention the trashing of the HD when downloading the blockchain or making a large transaction. I've asked several times how this would scale to, say, 100 times the current amount of users, and I have to say I never got any really convincing answer to that...
149  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: [102% TESTING] I want your hashing power! "Project #2" on: May 03, 2012, 12:30:47 PM
I don't really know how much I had pending... all I know is I was mining continuously at around 650-700MH/s (more in the 700 - 2x 5870). So, this, times the time between latest payout and server outage. Probably 0.5 to 1 BTC. If I take nyana's figures for 10 GH/s and convert for 700MH/s I get 0.89 BTC.

I'm waiting to see what he thinks is a fair way to make it right with all of us. The initial proposal you had mentioned (135% or something like that) sounded good to me but if you can't get ANY of the data back how will we prove to you what we had pending? I know a good minimum approximation for myself and I stated it right in the beginning. I hope you can extrapolate some statistics that back that up.
My guess is looking at some previous stats and extrapolating to the missing day. Hoppers were tagged, and it seems reasonable to assume most other people had a steady hashrate. Apart from connection issues which prevented me from mining from time to time, I've been mining quite constantly around 650-700MH/s.

Too late. Transaction fees are in place, so you will lose a little in order to sell them (excluding exchange fees).
Yeah, but that's still better than just letting them all evaporate into ScamKing's wallet.
On a side note, do you really donate to ReactOS? Pretty cool, I don't see it mentioned often  Cool
152  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: SolidCoin 3.0 (aka MicroCash) will have a daily fee for each address you have. on: April 27, 2012, 11:22:21 AM
RealSolid is also planning to introduce exponentially increasing fees for accounts that haven't been touched in over 6 months in order to quickly redistribute the funds to active users
Wow. He's coming after my savings from Scamcoin 1.0. This is pure thievery. I guess I'll have to sell them before getting robbed then...
153  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: [102% TESTING] I want your hashing power! "Project #2" on: April 27, 2012, 06:11:43 AM
Seems like this is the case now, but remove the RG part as he should be the 'some server provider' if I ain't wrong:
Well, I'm not too sure about that:
We are also dealing with our own issues with the DC as they have given us the royal screw job.

1. Chaang is not listed on the account, he did not sign up, his name is not listed anywhere.
*I am unable to discuss any specifics with him*
Sure, it's not as if you were both posting in the same thread at a few posts interval...

Unfortunately its not that simple. This will all be fixed in due time. I'm just waiting for the person who actually pays for the server to talk to me. BitVPS is going to do what we can to fix this and attempt to make every happy, as per the usual.

So, let me get this straight:

Am I right?
Seems pretty inefficient compared to what I usually do:
155  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: [102% TESTING] I want your hashing power! "Project #2" on: April 26, 2012, 02:18:10 PM
12 to 13 BTC times the 135% will suit me fine. Could use it now though. Hoping you can get that worked out soon.
Seriously, you make 12 BTC a day, so you probably have like $6000 worth of GPUs, and you can't wait a few days for a $60 payout?   Roll Eyes
I'm not too happy either about the delay, but I sure can sustain a delayed 1-day worth of BTCs...
156  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: [102% TESTING] I want your hashing power! "Project #2" on: April 24, 2012, 09:29:07 AM
Stales/rejects getting out of hand (4.72%). I'll be moving to my backup pool before this is solved...  Undecided
That's weird, seems like most people are getting their worst reject rates at the moment, while on the contrary I'm getting the best I remember: 1.35%.
157  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The 0.4.0 encrypted wallet has been exploited - for sure on: April 20, 2012, 01:20:50 PM
Wuala is a major pain in the ass to use.  I wanted to like it, but it's a) Java based, so it's a piece of shit from the start, b) A resource hog, C) kind of flakey, D) Slow as dirt.
Definitely agreed for a), but otherwise I find it rather convenient to use. And, notably (and surprisingly) not slow on my below average computer.
158  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Is rig building still profitable? on: April 12, 2012, 09:43:50 AM
I actually spent $3000 on a desktop computer that I use for mining.  While it only pulls 1.35 G/Hash, I'll be able to sell this thing in 3-4 years for around $1500 easily.  It's one badass mofo machine, and all the parts are covered under warranty for 4 years.
You'll have to find someone crazy enough to by second-hand power-hungry hardware at the same (or maybe even lower) perf/price ratio as brand new power-savvy hardware. Good luck with that, although I guess it can be found...
159  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: [105% TESTING] I want your hashing power! "Project #2" on: April 02, 2012, 08:22:56 PM
is it just me that hasn't had my payments sent out in a couple of days? normally they are sent out every 24 hours but since a couple of days back I haven't gotten any payments :8
I can't tell for the week-end, as I didn't mine from Friday evening to today morning, but I did get pay for Friday.
160  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: [105% TESTING] I want your hashing power! "Project #2" on: March 30, 2012, 10:43:48 AM
If you notice any 'hopping' from me, it's because my backup pool has kicked in  Undecided
Same here, but yeah good thing you deal with hoppers. I hope that it's okay to mine "only" ~16 straight hours a day, though (like, turning off the bedroom laptop so I can sleep Cheesy).
