I too have been wondering about this, I get diverted I think.  api2.bitcoin.cz:8332 is my server? When I open new other miner in GUIminer it asks for an .exe I don't seem to have...

Don't create new "other miner", use the opencl one (prolly there is one open by default).
from the Pools dropdown menu pick "other"
enter stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333
fill username and password for the worker

Thank you! That bumped my hash up a bit.
I separated the host and port into there respective entrees.
Host : stratum.bitcoin.cz      Port: 3333
I just updated my currant workers with these, no downtime at all. Thanks again.

I have a question about ASIC mining on slush's pool. what software should i use? will the guiminer work? I haven't received delivery of my ASIC yet because; BFL, but I want to be ready to go as soon as I get it.(in 2 weeks apparently)
anyways, what is the recommended software to hook up my ASIC to the pool?

Pretty much the only option for ASIC mining is cgminer or bfgminer.

I like cgminer myself.

Not sure if guiminer will handle ASICs, but I couldn't get it to work with my FPGAs.  I use it on one gpu rig and cgminer on the other.  I've had trouble with cgminer staying connected for FPGAs so for them I use bfgminer.  Since bfgminer also handles Avalon rigs, I imagine it will run BFL ASICs, too.

cool guys. all info duly noted. mebby some programmer out there will invent a noob friendly asic mining software. be veddy profitable, no?

Another long block... 5 hours and counting...

Another long block... 5 hours and counting...

and it is a nice 5hour INVALID block 241420 EclipseMC got this block not us

241420 is an orphaned as well.....

Somebody is yanking our pool with brute force of 1TH/s!

well i've got to say thanks for the intro and help and such but after this statement ---->


"The average time to generate a block at 250.0 Mhps, given difficulty of 15605632.6813, is 8 years, 26 weeks, 1 day, 2 hours, 6 minutes, and 58 seconds"



what with my lonely 1 gpu 6870 (250-300MH) sett-up that runs at approx. 288W on an elec rate of 14.43KW/h and a standing charge of 18pence a day......i'm out.

i'll be back next year when i have a Pi and a BFL Jal'

so long and thnx for all the fish.

sob.
Have fun, dont break anything whilst i'm gone.

Just because you won't find a block, doesn't mean you still can't make $25+ a month mining with that single card.  I don't know if it's worth it for you, but that's the beauty of mining pools.  You don't have to find a block to make btc...

If everyone wasn't aware, slush is a little busy with trezor which I just preordered. Check it out, I got to finally see a picture of him. Hope it works with blockchain.

i'd love to, but it would cost me 60 a month or so in power bills to make that ...

Great initiative ! But really far too expensive for the limited amount of btc I own....

[DryMartini]

Great initiative! Hope it doesn't require the "admin" to manually fix anomalies every ten transactions though ;-)

[STT]

So long as it does the job routinely for people in the real world, buying a car or just doing the monthly shopping then its good.    I wonder how the card companies would cast their eye over it with all their chip and wf technology

The guy with low mh/s that is quiting was talking about finding a block on the pool.
Are there any bonus reward for the one that finds a block ?
