Hello everyone.

We are proud to be part of a new MintRace on Bitminter.com.
Thanks to DrHaribo the bitminter operator, we have prepared 10 BCC cards for winner in the upcoming MintRace.
The winner will choose the currency of the card that he wants, and DrHaribo prepared Bitcoins for the podium winners.


Here is the original post made by DrHaribo:

Bitcurex is kindly offering their BCC cards as prizes for a second Mint Race on BitMinter. It will be similar to the first mint race. The finest quality minting work (lowest hash value) will win.

Start: friday 31.08.2012 at 20:00 UTC
Finish: sunday 02.09.2012 at 20:00 UTC

Prizes:
1st place: Bitcurex BCC card + 5 BTC
2nd place: Bitcurex BCC card + 3 BTC
3rd place: Bitcurex BCC card + 2 BTC
4th through 10th place: Bitcurex BCC card

Total value is about 38.7 BTC (price, as of this writing, is 2.87 BTC per BCC card)

If you win a Bitcurex card you can choose the currency (USD, EUR or GBP). If you don't win you can of course still buy a card from https://shop.bitcurex.com. You can sell bitcoins on Bitcurex and withdraw your money (USD, EUR or GBP) through the BCC card. Thanks to Bitcurex for sponsoring the Mint Race. You can read more about them at https://bitcurex.com and https://shop.bitcurex.com.

Win conditions:
Just like your hash must beat the difficulty to produce a block, it must beat the other miners to win. The best (lowest) hashes during the race will win.
As long as your work is accepted by the server it is valid for the race, even if it ends up "stale" or "orphaned" in the block list.
Each person can only compete with one (their best) hash.

Verifiability:
Hopefully your mining software will show if you have created a block (BitMinter client does). Your block will show with your user name in the block list at http://bitminter.com/blocks. You can click the height number for the block (leftmost column) to see details. There is a link there to blockchain.info where you can see the hash value of the block both on the page and in the URL. The lowest hash value wins. Hash values are shown in hexadecimal. 0-9 is lower than A-F. A is lower than B. Pretty simple.

Current standings will be updated here regularly once the race has started.

Now finish building that new mining rig, check that your equipment is properly cooled and get some spare fuses, just in case. The competition will be fierce.



Best Regards

Let the best machine wins.
