Flound, I see that the estimated block time on all currencies are 0 minutes, was this because of the DOS attack?

So there was an attack on the pool?

Hey flound, any plans for an iOS app to monitor my worker's status on multipool?

Auto exchange to BTC yet?
Not yet, but MY WALLET IS READY FOR SOME SERIOUS BITCOIN ACTION!!! |
|

If it was up to me I'd remove LKY and ARG as well as LTC. Those three have low or no hashrates, and litecoin is difficult to mine with only 10MHs in a single pool, even when the multipool switches and gets a few blocks solved and then moves on again the LTC pool is just sitting basically.

The important questions are how much BTC do you expect it to mine, and do you care if that is less than you paid for it?
I'm hoping to make back $20 of my investment before difficult of bitcoin goes completely through the roof and you're making absolutely nothing, like you're just barely covering power costs with your mining. Like I'm definitely not expecting to recoup all of my investment with this, but keep in mind I have another miner running making me around $3 a day, which I'm trying to use to buy me the parts needed for this low powered miner. Why would you spend $50 to make $20? Why not just buy ~0.5BTC? Even if difficulty stayed perfectly level, it would take 124 days for you to break even on it. If you want to get one for fun then that makes sense. But getting one for potential profit is just throwing money away. I'm wanting to get one just for the fun of it, to make a low powered miner. And if it can pay back part of it's cost that would be great, but I'm definitely not expecting it to recoup all of my investment, even if I mine alt-SHA-256 currencies on it and trade them for BTC. |

Well I do have a contact in the USA that could possibly ship them to me once it arrives at their place. Then it would cost 0.38 BTC for a single erupter from SBB's group buy, or 0.7 BTC for two miners from him as well + the shipping costs from the contact to me, which is probably $30 or so just from looking at the price to re-ship a package from northern USA to Southern Canada. I'm leaning towards buying the miner for $50 cash from Canada - there is no shipping fee or anything else, it's $50 flat rate per miner, just because I find it less of a pain then to gather $40 worth of bitcoins from all my wallets, ship it to my contact and then pay another $30 to get it actually shipped to me in Canada. Oh - and I have a $10 Amazon gift card, so when/if I buy a USB powered hub and USB fan I'll get $10 off it.  |

Hi, I'm thinking about purchasing a single block erupter to mine with my Raspberry Pi for a low cost miner. The things I'd need to buy would be these:
-USB Block Erupter ($50 - I'm in Canada and this is the cheapest I can get them)
-Powered USB hub (~$10)
What do you guys think about this? Power draw would be around 7W max on load I figure, so nothing really goes to pay for power. Do you think it would be worth it, even just to run it for fun? Also, any ideas on alt-coins to mine with an erupter that would be more profitable than BTC?
I currently have a 1.06MH/s alt-coin mining rig bringing in around $3 a day after power (450W @ 0.12$ per kW/hr.) and I'm kind of using the money generated from that to pay for these things.
But yeah, what do you guys think about this? Buy now? Wait until a lower price drop? Don't buy?

SSB, does #9 group buy end at any specific time?
Like, an ETA for #10?

I've had a huge unconfirmed balance for around 12 or 14 hours now at least, in DGC. Any idea on how long it will take to be confirmed?

So, the pool had a shitty night. The PXC client crashed about half hour after I went to bed and took the pool down for most of the night. The multiport was stuck on MNC for about 7 hours.
So, payouts are going to suck today. Sorry.
I did find the last of the places in the code that depended on every coin daemon being up, and added try/catch statements, so I guess the silver lining is that this should not happen again. I've tested, and the site no longer goes down if a coin daemon is unavailable.
Sorry for not posting this in the AM, but I only had enough time to get everything up and running before going out for the day.
just out of curiosity, why isn't DGC showing a profitability ratio like the other currencies? It doesn't really matter but I'm just wondering, is the server down that calculates the DGC value or difficulty or something? |

Are there no other international shipping options available?
These are the only options at this time. Did you need faster/more expensive delivery or slower/cheaper delivery? cheaper It would be nice. I just don't trust them getting delivered or making it there in one undamaged piece. Maybe try a local group buy or reseller if possible. Thanks for the question. I'm in the same boat, cheaper shipping would be nice and honestly this is only like a $30 investment and I'd be ok risking it being damaged while shipping and pay around $5 for a padded envelope compared to $35 for an insured more secure package. Any chance of this? |

How exactly do you pay your server costs with no fees...?
Donations barely cover server costs I read earlier. Anyone know what's up with the current LKY boom? 7x as profitable as BTC! |

Who wants to mine Litecoins, it's a waste of time because there's nowhere to spend them. I tried it and most of the blocks don't even contain a single transaction. Litecoin is as dead as a dodo.
You can trade them for bitcoins, and they're hitting Gox soon as well, which is quite a large trading site. It obviously shows they have their support behind litecoins. Basically if 1 GH/s makes you 70 cents a day after power mining bitcoins, 1MH/s will make you around $3 after power costs mining litecoins. |

Ummmm, site is down! Any reason as to why?
Hope this isn't another LTC-Wallet scam, but if it is I would have only lost 50 DGC.
not a scam. even the online wallet we are supposed to close is still working to allow people to move their funds out of it. we care alot about quality of our services and our reputation at coinex, so we're sorry for this downtime to happen even though that wasn't our fault. while we see a point when a customer doesn't care who's fault it was which made the service offline, we kindly ask for your understanding. we'll make our best to prevent any further downtimes. Oh don't worry about it. I guess I'm just paranoid that I lost a few dollars (like $3 lol) in the LTC-Wallet scam, but that was still like a week of mining for me. But glad it's back up again, thanks for the status updates.  |

When is auto-exchange to BTC support coming??
soon(tm) I can't wait for that, then it'll make the multipool feature more useful IMO. |

Just a quick question, is there a block solver's reward on multipool? I've mined there for a few months but haven't bothered to ask before.
There is no block solver's reward, other than getting paid for the shares you submitted. Hmmm, hmmmm. A block solver's reward would be nice. A block solver's reward is generally something new pools do as a promotion to get people to use their pool. It's not really something I'd consider at this point as a) we already have a substantial user base and b) this is a free pool and other than donations (which go mostly to pay for the servers) I have no funds to pay block solver's rewards, which would mean they would have to come out of everyone else's mining profits. Ah ok, fair enough. Thanks for the speedy replies though! |
