Would you consider implementing the BTC-E API into your site? That would allow us to directly or automatically sell our altcoins at the market value, or set our own prices and sell them at those prices as they are generated. Could be done if you implement a limit of 1 coin of whatever currency before your sell order goes live, and sell order can only be increased by 1 coin intervals.

That'd be a rather large project that I don't have time for at the moment..  If someone is willing to implement it in PHP I would consider adding it.

I'm about 75% done the back-end of a stand-alone auto-sell service. In Ruby. The only obstacle I'm facing is transaction fees. Transfer 1 brand-new LTC and it takes a 10% fee! I'd probably just set a 10 coin threshold, otherwise it'd take a ton of confirms to eliminate the transfer fee. I hope at the pool, the transaction fees for those taking low-threshold payouts is applied to them alone and not shared across the pool...

The fact the exchanges don't (from what I can see) offer a withdraw API (for the sold BTC) adds a bit extra risk to the equation too. I'd be giving out my local BTC, and manually refilling from the account.

Maybe the simplest would be to just let have users enter their API and private keys (of a new account only used for this), and they send their mining payouts directly to the exchange, and the service just executes the auto-sells. They can then withdraw their BTC at their leisure.

LTC fees are going to be reduced soon, once the new client is released.  Might want to wait until after that.

out of curiosity how would being on the multipool that picks the currency help unless you're selling your coins when you mine them? This would also be difficulty with it being PPNS right? What am I missing?

Coin profitability fluctuations are mostly due to difficulty changes.  Price fluctuation plays a small part.  Unless a coin crashes in value you should be able to sell it for close to what it was when we were mining it.  Most of our coins pay out after 20 confirms or less.

I'm planning to implement an "actual profitability" for last 24h but there are some challenges involved.

Ahh I supposed that makes sense in theory. I haven't done any practical testing to verify it, but thanks for your input! I'll look for the actual profit in the future. What are the challenges you're hitting?

Why does coinchoose and coinwarz disagree with your predictions of profit?

I dock WDC by 25% and DGC by 20% to account for stales and orphan blocks.

Other than that, they should be pretty close.

As far as the challenges, most is just deciding how I want to implement it, adding new columns to db, etc.

Will it be included into the multiport?

Eventually.  I'd like for us to to find a block first and make sure all that's working properly (rewards etc), but it's going to be hard to do that at the current difficulty.

(hopefully) Last minor change to the API structure!

http://multipool.in/api3.php

round_shares would be a nice add, I have been using the app all day and a lot of times things look stale as the payouts are waiting for confirms

[emunebtk]

just started joining in to mine FTC but would love the option to also mine LTC when the profitably is higher. Is there a way to set up your miner to swicth back and forth between just the two instead of setting it to mine all the coins with the highest profit in port 7777? Thanks for offering a great MultiPool!

That's pretty much what happens, other than switching to MNC when the difficulty drops.  We haven't spent any appreciable time on WDC or DGC for about a week now.

I could look into adding a "conservative" multiport that only switches between the "established" altcoins, if people want that.

I added round_shares and block_shares (shares submitted since found block)

The app looks great btw, thanks so much for creating it!

np, just push up with round and block shares for ltc, do the others tomorrow!

Est. Time To Find Block   26 Hours 38 Minutes

Had to turn 1 machine off due to room heat buildup (AC shuts itself off), but at least the time frame is an order of magnitude smaller now! Let's find that share

Great thanks for looking into that! Just something I was thinking about but in the end love what you have going on..thanks!

I added round_shares and block_shares (shares submitted since found block)

possible to set to "0" for no data vs false?

Also I think estimated_rewards 0 for ltc does not have quotes but all the others do, is that possible?

Looking into it, the estimated rewards should all be fixed.

Logo / favicon looks good

Is TRC pool ok? We seems to have unusual long block, over 6hrs and still mining.

Everything looks OK, shares are being inserted in the db and no errors in the logs.. Just bad luck.
