MP just keeps dropping DogE doo on Vern's lawn and cryspy just keeps automatically turning turds into bitcoins.
I don't understand what all the caterwallin's about, cryspy's been working great for me lately.

Sometimes cryptsy works fine.
But when it goes bad... it's awful.

But you don't even use cryspy and you're doing half the caterwallin' 

I was screwed over by cryptsy more than once.  Doing my due diligence to warn people away from it.

YMMV.

I watched this utube video last night of a guy showing how he builds a 5xR9-290 scrypt miner. He goes to the store and buys 6 brands of cards: Sapphire, Asus, MSI, Diamond, etc. He had a new Hercules 1600 PSU and a Gigabyte 990-UD3 or 5 motherboard and a nice metal tube frame he says he makes and sells for $140. I'm guessing this cost over $3,000 to build. Got me to thinking. I just finished building a 6x5970s, a pair of Corsair PSUs (AX1200 + TX850), homemade frame, 32 GB SSD, risers and 3 fans. Cost me about $2,000.

What if it were possible to buy a BFL Monarch 600 GH/s card today (hypothetically speaking, of course) for $2,200 or spend the cash on a 4 MH/s scrypt miner. The Monarch 600 would mine 0.1686 BTC per day and recoup its cost in 17 days. In a year from now when your Monarch finally arrives in the mail it's anybody's guess. The scrypt miner would immediately start minting 1.0053 LTC and recoup its capital cost in about 100 days. One could scale the case up to compare to a CoinTerra 2 TH/s and it would be 24% better than a Monarch 600.

Where should I send my cash     I know which choice is more fun

Only so much room in the sig.. I have them listed in order of priority that I recommend.

If I had room I'd say "use Vircurex for everything you can, cryptsy for everything else, and use coins-e if desperate but use with caution!"

(I'll see if I can get that in there..)

All the Dogecoin payouts are completely blank when in block detail. Last 12 or so blocks are completely devoid of value. Needs to be looked at. Not talking about the stupid Cryptsy thing.

Avoid BFL.  Don't trust a word they say.  Expect your order to be significantly delayed.  Expect their customer service to be non existant.  Expect history to repeat itself.

I'd recommend the GPUs and scrypt mining ... like old BTC days, they are resellable.  There are enough alt coins out there, and more appearing every day it seems.  If you're focusing on LTC you might not do so hot, but alt coins you should do great.

Something seems awry:

I've been mining doge at Multipool with 6.4 MH/s from 13:30 to 19:55 GMT+1 (almost 6.5 hours) and the reward amount for that period was 9876 coins. That's obviously wrong so I'd like to know where is the rest of my money.

While I think that is low too.. it's not THAT low, as DOGE difficulty is significantly higher than it used to be.

Yep, payout for the past 7 or so hours has been a LOT lower than usual.

Looks like the site is down again also.

Site back up.

[gszabi]

Any news? Site down from here, im in Ukraine. Ive stopped mining because payouts are throttling.

[dittie]

Site back up.

Not for me...

[gszabi]

I saw a news about DDoS attack after this the site went down.

Jan 21 7:15 PM The EU server is under DDOS attack.  We will be making high hashrate EU and US servers available with a minimum share difficulty of 256.  Please contact us via email to request access.

They mentioned EU servers but looks like they got some DDoS gift to the US server too.

Join in Coinex. It is much better and clearer site. There is also a switching to the most profitable coin. Welcome

Im confused about the difficulty chart at multipool. I started a relevant thread on this subject here and would really appreciate any input.

[Ntrain2k]

Site back up.

Not for me...

Yep, back down again.

Pray you never need Coinex support because they pretty much do not exist.  I had a simple issue that took nearly 5 weeks to resolve, all because they don't know what they're doing.  Now I'm stuck waiting on a ticket to resolve an authenticator issue, that's already going on for one week and I can't do anything with my account.

This isn't me being alarmist or exaggerating, this is normal for their support.  The last 10-15 pages of their own ANN thread are people complaining about it.

i switched to dogechain pool. what do you think? reliable pool? considering to move until the attacks end on multipool.

Vircurex is the only one I've always had someone respond to fairly quickly.  CoinsE is lost (took 2 weeks to "solve" their DOGE problem, and I still show items pending from 2 weeks ago).  Cryptsy is overwhelmed I guess, the same problems they had a month ago are still going on.  I looked at other "exchanges", and I didn't like any of them.
