So, I've spent the past few days sort of observing Teracoin, and whenever difficulty is below about 18k, I switch over and mine, until it goes back above that mark. Doing so manually isn't really practical, and with network difficulty fluctuating between 9k, and 60k throughout the day, it's impossible to keep on top of it.

Is there such a program that can use API calls to monitor network difficulty, and switch to a different pool (and therefore network) any time difficulty meets a set parameter?
(EG:
Code:
if Teracoin network difficulty <18k, switch to pool 1
Else switch to pool 0

??

I know of one project, However it monitors based on report from dust coin, which I've found to have significant reporting lag from actual difficulty... Not sure who knows enough to mod it to keep on top of difficulty.

Yeah, it would need to monitor the network itself, or parse a service that updates more frequently (every 30 seconds would be ideal) because dustcoin is HIGHLY inaccurate and laggy.

Modifying such code shouldn't be too hard, if there is another website such as dustcoin which has a more accurate and frequent update time.

I'm looking for this too, I don't like the profit switching service from multipool, I just want a difficulty switching pool for long term holding, not pump & dump, anyone working on something like this?
