As stated.. this is new technology.
Yes, the fees are a little high.
Yes, I have to wait a little while for transactions to confirm.

That being said, I FULLY support this kind of tech! 

Since I am blessed to be close to one of the two machines in the USA, yes, I am going to use the machine.
I want to support it's operation... I want to see more of them -- in every store and on every (other) corner!

Fees will drop... wait times will improve... but only if there is interest in the technology!

The confirmation wait was low this time... less than 5 minutes.

More updates!

So I went back for more 'processing' fun today!
In the middle of a transaction, the machine completely froze up.... not responding at all.

Luckily I saw a contact@ email address on the bottom of the screen.
Now mind you, it was Sunday at like 5pm -- who is gonna be on call, right?

I sent an email to the address listed stating I needed help with the machine in Chicago (Yes, Cassava Bread).
Within minutes I was contacted back and was on the phone with a support person for Midwest Bitcoin.

In 10 minutes they had fixed the problem, reset the machine, and I was able to complete my transaction.
Now THAT is customer service!!

 


Note:  I had previously not mentioned Cassava because I didn't stop to eat the first time.  Today, we did stop to eat.
Yes, the food was excellent!!

Sorry for the confusion.   When entering the amount you want to withdraw you enter that amount in USD.  It then showed me a qr code asking for me to send 1.xx coins in.  It calculated my btc value to spend based on how much I wanted in USD.

Yeah, the 10 minute delay on transactions over $100 was a little bit of a put off... but its all still new, right!

Wouldn't it be possible to mine on multiple v2 pools at once... by listing your local address followed by each pool link like this:

java -cp pocminer_pool.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer_pool.POCMiner mine myhost:port pool1:port pool2:port

Let em dump... it'll be a good time to buy!

Nah... we all know those volume charts are a load of c$%p !   

+1

Lol... matters not... this is the fun part of the crypto world.
'Figuring' out how to do it!

It's a nice change of pace from the X11-X17 fires!

Yeah, I wasn't too happy about that... but I am still in the 'try it out' phase... so it's all good!

You can't use your numeric address from your wallet... I entered my BURST- address and was assigned a new numerical address.
From there, I created plots based on that address and started mining on the pool.

Ok, ty... while I am scaling up I just wanted to make sure everything was ok.

I didn't ... I followed the instructions.
Put in my Burst ID, created a new numeric address and created my plots based on that address.

I have a mining question!

I am currently mining on the Simple Burst Pool:
http://198.199.103.145:8121/

I have been mining for a couple hours now with about 150GB in plots.
It it normal to not have a share submitted in that time frame?

Thank you.

10 Paid back to the faucet!

Hey everyone,

I received two coins from the faucet which is what helped me get started.
I don't have much, but I would like to re-pay ten Burst to the faucet.

Before I do, I see there is a Deadline (24 Hours) field.
Should I make any adjustments to this field before sending to the faucet?

How much memory do you have in your GPU?
The most I can gen @ is 3000 on a higher end card.

The lower end ones with 1GB constantly fail with the error posted above.

What do these stats mean on http://burst-pool.cryptoport.io
Under All Round Shares?

Yes, rack mounted PES....It's a processing monster!

My 2950 is AWESOME (ty mr. Barrientos!) at dropping 2GB plot files left and right.
I move them off to other machines in my network and start chewing up disks!

I actually found a LOT of answers here:
