[ANN] CryptoSwitcher - Automatically mine the best coin.

[LittleDigger]

Could anyone help me with setting it up?
I can't find the dependencies and where to put them

If you do the first two steps (install python 2.7.4 and set the path), then, to install a module, you open up the command line, change to the modules directory ( the directory with the file setup.py in it), and type "python setup.py install"

Note in my last post I gave links to the modules that worked for me. The Numpy modules are executables.. you just run them. They are for Intel and Amd chips and 32 and 64 bit windows, so be sure to get the right one

Why would this be of interest to you? It has fewer coins than dustcoin or Coinchoose, no API and no additional information. Unless you think that both dustcoin and Coinchoose are calculating things incorrectly, I can't see a reason.

As a backup or to check proper values. Sometimes the diff values at these sites are lagging (minutes or even hours).

It is good as backup, but i noticed the pricing / difficulty lags in general on this new site.  It does look like the difficulty issue you reported on mine was fixed (and was based on a temporary outage of the blockexplorer).  I am added in a few additional redundacies to account for blockexplorer outages so I don't expect my stats to lag more than a minute or so.

Keep up the good work.  All these coins are making me dizzy!

Yeah, same here. I've tweaked how the config file is read now though, which will make it easier for me to add additional coins (thought it was hardly difficult as it was, just tedious. It's much harder for you

[sal002]

Well - not that hard if I have a blockexplorer, clear understanding on block reward, a pretty icon and an exchange

I've just starting using cryptoswitcher and I think it's awesome

One problem though, the moment when coinotron website went down, cryptoswitcher can't launch and this error pops up:

I see in error message that coinotron is mentioned, so I deleted this site from cryptoSwitcher.config but still same error occurs

A fix for this issue has been pushed by open5443 to the GitHub repository. If you git pull, then you will get the update.

thanks, just updated

would you explain to me why you are choose such fees values?

[Fees]
feebtc = -1
feeltc = 4
feeppc = 7
feenvc = 0
feetrc = 12
feebte = 0
feebqc = 0
feefrc = 0
feeftc = 4
feemnc = 0
feecnc = 0
feebtb = 0

No real reason as far as I'm aware, I'm afraid. You should alter them to appropriate values for you, based on the pools and exchanges you are using, as well as your opinion on different coins (e.g. If you don't trust BTB, give it a large fee).

Vircurex seems to be down, incidentally.

thanks for clarification

5 You need to install Numpy from the appropiate executable found only here : http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/

I was getting the below error when trying to launch, but subsequently realised I had installed the MTL version of Numpy. When I installed the correct version all worked well.

Many thanks for this software - it looks really great (although I'm just starting)

Actually, I spoke too soon - it turns out I get the error message:

In the API keys section of BTC-E, both "info" and "trade" are ticked for the relevant key

my "key" file contains:

100


Therefore I don't understand why it says "100 100" rather than just "100" in the error message (or why there is an error at all...)

Any thoughts as to what might be the cause?

Many thanks

Replace the '100' in your key file with '101'. Basically, you've already used the '100' nonce, which has to be a continually increasing number. If you use it twice, then you get this error.

It doesn't seem to take merged mining into account. Unless I'm missing something...

I have the following settings set:

mmNMC = True

but when it does the calculations it seems to ignore that NameCoin is at 6.5%. Shouldn't it add the merged mining coins to the value of BTC to get the base line? When it runs for me, BTC is at 100%, and any coin at 101% or greater gets selected.

Am I missing something?

Your missing the latest version.  It fixes that bug.
