How's the MyJam section coming along?
Viewing statistics, I have 2 high traffic sites I wanna test out
It's almost ready, a basic version should be up later tonight.
Any plans on lowering the 1BTC withdraw minimum?
isnt 1 BTC too high as minimal payment? 0.01 would be much better, lot of people will never reach 1BTC (however not so soon) and they maybe will leave.. BTC generated will remain to you.. i could uderstand with 0.01 payment (like others do) but not with 1 BTC minimal payment..
Yes. It's still being worked out right now. Minimum withdrawal should be coming down very soon. Just trying to figure out the logistics of the situation, and how to approach the situation while maintaining our "no account" policy.
Can we have:
- Either the ability to reduce the payout threshold OR;
- The ability to use this on other mining pools?
Also, does the BitJAM pool charge any fees?
The payout threshold should be coming down soon, probably to somewhere around 0.01 btc. Allowing people to set custom thresholds under 0.01 btc or something like that would mean people would have to set up accounts though, and I'd like to keep things as simple and straightforward as possible, though if there's enough demand for it then I might add accounts to the system. If you run the source yourself, you can use any mining pool you want. We haven't set up any fees or anything like that yet, though probably will somewhere down the road if only to keep our servers running. The payout is still being adjusted, and will be updated very soon..
if i go to a website and suddenly my pc starts to load i would leave. just my 2 cents...
I've tested the applet out on a bunch of older, slower computers, and I haven't noticed any slowdown whatsoever. There's no "lag" or anything like that. BitJAM runs at a low priority in the background and only uses idle cpu cycles. See the my previous posts up the page for a better explanation.
this is a very grat development!!! i gottaa talk to you later !!
thanks for this!
No problem, I'm glad people find it useful

If your PC starts any Java applet on the web, it won't be long until it is not just YOUR PC any more...
This isn't Javascript!
Anyways, is the backend code also Open Source, so I can host my own pool server for this?
Yeah, the backend is open source, so you could do that. You'll need port 15063 forwarded to the machine the backend is running on.
When will the user stats area be finished? I'd like to see how it's working.
Basic stats should be available later tonight.
I'm pretty sure I'm running arguments in the correct way but when I start the server script:
arguments are possibly invalid. starting up anyway
Starting up. Use ctrl+c to exit.
