Would you ever consider adding a 'solo' pool to litecoinpool.org? Nothing fancy, just a simple pool where people could solo mine and basically play a lottery. ckpool.org has one for Bitcoin at solo.ckpool.org and I thought you could do similar.
Thanks for your input. I'm personally open to the idea, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of demand (only a couple of people have asked for it over the past few years), and I'm not sure it would be high enough to justify the effort. I'll think about it. If anybody else would like such a service, please let me know (either on here or via email) so that I can gauge interest. Any more consideration on this? We haven't received feedback from many interested miners since your post. We might still go ahead with this, but it's certainly not taking priority at the moment. So far I have spent some time thinking about how to best implement this, but I haven't written any actual code yet. I understand. While stuck at home due to the virus, I was cleaning up the garage and came across another old Scrypt ASIC - thats what made me think of this again. I likely wouldnt run them right now anyway due to summer coming, but wintertime would just add extra heat to the house and be easier to justify the cost. |

Have you read what the Tritium release brings to the Nexus block-chain? A completely new code base, written from the ground up. Not a fork of an existing coin like 99% of the other crypto projects out there. Signature chains, which essentially removes the need for a wallet.dat or long keys to remember/copy and paste. Simply log in via a username, password and pin from anywhere. Just like an online banking app. Create namespaces so you can send/receive funds to meaningful and easy to remember addresses such as JoeBlogs:Savings, or JoeBlogs:Holidayfund A register based contract engine that can process between 2k and 25k contracts per second. API's built in for token creation/distribution, asset tracking and finance. These are just a few of the things that are designed to help mass adoption, and this is stage 1 of 3. Plenty more to come in the future Anime, and Obsidian updates. Just because the price has dropped like the rest of the market since 2017, doesn't mean there is nothing going on in the background. Nexus is alive, and offering some leading edge technology for block-chain development. Good things happening!  |

I'll think about it. If anybody else would like such a service, please let me know (either on here or via email) so that I can gauge interest. Honestly, my reason for reaching out is trust. Most people who choose a solo pool will either have MASSIVE hashrate or such a tiny amount they will never ever hit a block. Of those two, a majority will fall into the second group. With a tiny amount of hashrate, the odds of hitting a block are minimal and it would be easy for a pool operator to keep the rewards themselves and claim bad luck for the miner. I trust that you wouldnt do this so your pool would be one, if not the only that I would actually use. Looking back, my first payout from litecoinpool was almost 7 years ago and over that time you have earned my trust. Thanks for your consideration and your work for this community! |

Pooler, thanks for maintaining this pool for so long. Glad to see it still running strong.

I wonder what Feathercoin is working on right now, i havent seen a lot of them recently. hopefully they're keeping their heads down during this bear market and bring out something new when it picks back up
I agree on that. I think it still has a fan-base. As soon as they bring out something new, I think the value will increase again quite fast. Untill then, we know what to do v0.17 was just released. The dev team is active and working. Dont count Feathercoin out, good things are coming. |

Two things seem to be happening here.
Either we have a general interest with a lot of new users asking some very stupid and obvious questions...
or we have an army of spammers just posting shit for the sake of it...or maybe it's to up their ranking on bitcoin talk.
If you require help or assistance with Feathercoin Core, please give as much information as possible.
For example:
---
Feathercoin Core version: 0.16.1
OS Version: Windows 10
Problem: I need help using another disk as my Feathercoin Blockchain datadir.
Im going to vote for option #2. Go away spammers. Ha ha and just like that.. they went. Damn... I should have told them to send me a million Feathercoin too!! |

Pooler, how is the state of litecoinpool in terms of financial stability? I am hoping that it is making a nice profit to help keep the lights on and you interested in continuing its development!
Our profits may not be as big as our competitors', but we are fully aware that financial sustainability is of the utmost importance for a PPS pool. We try to maintain a reasonable "buffer" at all times, so that we can sustain relatively long periods of bad luck. Also I'd like to mention that, even though litecoinpool.org was never profit-oriented, it's always been one of my favorite projects. I've never given up on it just because there was a lack of profitability (and in over 6 years that happened quite a few times), and I still don't intend to. This is one of the reasons Ive been here so long. Everyone likes profit but sometimes youre able to come across someone who isnt profit driven and will work a project just because they want to see it through. Thanks again, pooler, for being there for us over the many years! |

For FTC, nothing unusual. Bots are lowering the price, probably until 700-800 sat, even less, than pump it up to 2.5k, than between 3-4k sat. The same happen many times. It is just the time for the new round. Easy money for certain group of the people, so FTC will never succeed, as it is known well as pump and dump coin, and can not attract any one serious to invest in it. It is a shame because FTC deserve better
Its a temporary shame, its like that with most projects right now, its so easy to pump them if you have a few 100K or even a million, so why not take advantage of that and pump a coin right before a new release or update? You could probably make a few 1000 bucks a minute Bought my first feathercoins ever, given the halving is in over a month are you guys stacking up? What you think? The halving is way over a month away... like 36 months. |

Hello All. Sorry if this was already covered in one of the other 59 pages but I have an issue that I am hoping someone can help me with.
We use Awesome Miner and it is reporting us hashing at around 39k MH/S. However, we are only reporting at 36 - 37k MH/S on Litecoinpool.
Is this degree of difference pretty normal?
Thanks so much
Yes. You will almost always see slightly less hash rate as reported by the pool vs what your miner says. This is true on all pools, not just this one. |
