[GB] USB ASIC miner - closed and completed

[BeeCoin]

Mein Mac-Mini verbaucht im idle Zustand (bedient nut Ztex Devices) weniger als 8W. Das ist immer noch mehr als so
ein Pi, aber dafür kann man auch mehr mit dem Mac machen (ok, er ist ja auch deutlich teurer).
Wenn man dann noch die USB ASICs über den Mac Mini mit Strom versorgt, spart man sich auch den HUB mit Netzteil.

Danke, Trepex. Spannend zu hören.

I wish friedcat would give our group some more units, the US/Canada buy was all shipped in 2 days.

another 150 are on their way.
The rest is ready for pick up.
But we wait until the problems with the first package are resolved.
just relax a little

I wonder why they are sent in 3! parcels?

probably insurance limits by DHL ?!
or just packaging (& testing) load factor.

ideas about what mining pool to choose ?

ideas about what mining pool to choose ?

preferably p2pool/similar or one that is not in the top5 .. and which is stable and well administered.. e.g. ozcoin .

*edit.. also important: identify and setup (2 or more) backup pools to have a strategy for unforeseeable circumstances

[yxt]

+1 p2pool and ozcoin

Clearance processing complete at LEIPZIG - GERMANY
rest is picked up tomorrow. We unfortunately missed the DHL window for one hour

That's great! Ty for the update.

+1 p2pool and ozcoin

I have tried a lot of pools since 2011 and slush's pool https://mining.bitcoin.cz seems to be one of the fairest.
- stratum support
- transaction fees which are added to the found block are paid out too. Not the 25 BTCs only.
- namecoin mining

Yes thats true - slush just got a bit too big since stratum (he's the 'leading' developer behind it). The first both are also fitting for ozcoin, namecoin at least is not supported any more . So if that one is a criteria, the pools to choose from are quite few.
But: "Instant payout, pay invalids for 2%+ donors" is a plus of ozcoin vs. slush and most others.

If merged mining is important then also bitparking is interesting, but I had serious problems regarding its stability. And MtRed sadly is closing its service - as if it needed proof that 0 fee doesn't work out on long term.

Sadly namecoin seems to be dead, or how many bitcoin-sites are reachable via .bit-addresses? and do you have a dns/nmc-gateway activated on your systems/routers?

[CumpsD]

I use bitminter, biggish share because ASICminer has a piece there.

1% fee
Stratum
Nmc (more active than slush)
