[ANN] MinerFarm - Virtual Mining Game for Real Bitcoin

[ElscottHavoc]

On technicians that are leased for 60 minutes, the "hire out" button pops up but they can not be hired out of you don't actually own them.  Might consider removing the button.

so, for repair or get back my ghs which decreased, i need to hire technicians, but the technician is permanent right? so if my hardware have a damage and need to repair, the technician repair it automatically?

Technicians do not repair automatically, you have to chose when to repair your device. If you buy a tech it is permanent. But you can also rent from employee market for 1 hour, it's cheaper than buying.

Hmmm, but that means it could be profitable to purchase them as a type of investment. I wonder how often they're rented?

[ElscottHavoc]

Hard to tell how often they'll be rented, but assuming a large player base is never going to invest they'll be forced to lease them as their miners will require repairs before they have enough to outright purchase techs.

Yeah, wondering if people are already renting them, . It's basically a decision of opportunity cost... determining if it will pay back before the site goes down (even major corporations don't last forever).

[Dr Charles]

I think this is an interesting concept. Ill give it a shot

This is one of the first strategies that I'm currently looking at to further maximize my earnings. Though they aren't rented often, still there is a high possibility that they may be used by other users who need them, also because it is cheap, it sure is a hit to people who needs something to be repaired.

liked the design, it looks so professional. And since the developer is aliser, who has many coin related websites since long time, I am sure this new one is also trustworthy.

I'm testing at the begining of the game and you will see that every details are considiring by admin.

Yeah, just noticed that the health of systems goes down a little slowly, and the site is somewhat new. I think in a month or two we'll see the real effects and how many people are renting, but those that already have them will benefit the most. Somewhat high-risk, high-reward, but may be worth doing.

Noticed some people in chat were questioning why some pools hadn't "solved" a block in several hours.  Of course, I use the term "solve" liberally since this is virtual but I put together a little article about how I think the site works in releasing blocks and why blocks may not be released as often as you feel they ought to be.

Anyways, feel free to discuss.

There's no need to post blockchain TxID's here, since the payment is made automatically in the system. Your payment is very little by the way. How much did you invest here? As far as I remember you only had 20 Gh/s.

this is interesting, joined

This was a very nice read and really shed some light on how the system works. I figured as much already but was nice to see something backing it up.

Tons of automatic systems quit paying out, so seeing updated payments is always a good thing...

It's been said here and says on the site that if you're not online for 2 days, miners go inactive.

I heard about something for inactivity but I'm not sure about 2 days. I was out of town for holiday break and I didn't open the site for 5 or 6 days, but when I opened it my miners were still working. They didn't stop.
Somebody please let us know how many days after we don't login the miners stop, I couldn't find it in FAQ.

Says right on the site:

"My Miners Stop Automatically When I Do Not Login To MinerFarm For A While, Why ?

Miners should be under control of the player continuously, because of that if player does not login to the MinerFarm for 2 - 3 days, systems pause."

I need an official statement because when I didn't login to the site for more than 3 days my miners didn't stop. I wonder why.
