[ ~250 GH/s ] Mainframe MC - 8 decimal, SSL, API, LP, MT

[AnnihilaT]

Hi!

Mainframe is a mining pool founded with the goal of giving something back to the developers who help make bitcoin what it is and continue to improve it.

The Mainframe Mining Cooperative is an open registration charity mining pool which gives 50% of its earnings in user set donations to open source bitcoin developers and writers. (https://github.com/Unthinkingbit/charity/blob/master/bitcoindonationinformation.html)

!!! NEW !!!
The charity features are optional! If you want to help support developers, just set a donation percentage in your "Account Details" page. You control if you want to donate and how much you want to donate.

If you just want to mine with us and not worry about the whole charity thing, just leave your donation percentage set at zero to opt-out of the charity features of this pool.
----

(If you are a bitcoin open source developer or writer, you can post your information on the bitcoin donation thread (https://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=18498) to request addition to the list of developers we donate to.)

We currently have an administration fee of 0.5% and utilize a PPLNS (Pay Per Last N Shares) scoring system for a fair payout to our committed miners. This is no longer a "pool-hopper friendly" pool.

You can use the following URL to mine with us:

Hi there,

I've joined your pool as well with my humble hashing efforts. 
I was wondering if I got the payout system figured out right.
So when a block "N" is found, you wait until "N+120" blocks found until the earnings are distributed to the people mining?

I'll try to find some more hashing power in the next few days/weeks, as long as it's worthwhile :-)

[AnnihilaT]

yes that's correct   I have some mining equipment for sale if you are in holland pm if you need more ... cheers!

[wimpie007]

So if I assume a rate of 6 blocks found per hour, I should see my balance increase when about 20 hours have passed?

Yes thats exactly how it works (and pretty standard practice btw because the pool doesnt actually receive the coins until 120 confirms are made so unless it bankrolls the payouts itself it doesnt have the funds to pay you until it gets paid).  Welcome to the pool, btw!

[wimpie007]

Thank you 

Just a small heads up: I noticed that the 1 BTC for the blockfinder promo isn't longer active, but it's still visible as a ticker in you opening post in this thread.

Thanks for all the efforts in getting this pool going!

[AnnihilaT]

oh yes thanks for that... i have two threads to maintain and sometimes forget about this one when i update the main one.

Can charities donate some hash power for a day to help people with experiments,maybe? Just curious :-)

err nevermind .I guess this isn't really the place to discuss such matters.Sorry for any confusion caused by my query.I've dropped the idea as this isn't the proper place to ask.I can't find anywhere to help that I know of so I just assumed that a charity could somehow help (thats whats made me ask the question in the first place).
