[ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - www.middlecoin.com

[CrimsonPermanentAssurance]

I've added two new beta servers, so we now have:

uswest.middlecoin.com:3333 in Oregon (same as middlecoin.com currently)
useast.middlecoin.com:3333 in N. Virginia beta
eu.middlecoin.com:3333 in Ireland beta
asia.middlecoin.com:3333 in Singapore beta

They all switch coins, just like the original US server. After beta ends, middlecoin.com will point to the server with the lowest latency to you. So you don't need to mess with your miner config at all if you don't want to participate in the beta.

If you use a beta server, be sure to have a failover server because I might need to take them offline if they have issues.

Also, don't use --no-submit-stale. On any server. When we coin switch with the new non-disconnecting tech, cgminer thinks some shares are stale when they are not.

h20, a quick question…

Is there any difference between using simply "middlecoin.com:3333," as opposed to "uswest.middlecoin.com:3333"?

Currently US - West and middlecoin.com both point to the same IP address so there is no difference.

Im using middlecoin.com:8080,
do i need to change to 3333??  

No, 8080 will still work.

So we mined longer than normal and got a lower payout than normal. Usually my balance+unexchanged+immature = around .12BTC per day, today... .078.  I currently have .03 still unexchanged and I got paid .048.

I understand low pay days, but mining LTC would have made me $53.80 today, and .048 BTC is worth $44.50. We should *never* be below what we would get mining LTC straight. Even if we were mining LTC (one of the least profitable scrypts) we should still break even. There are currently 24 scrypt coins that are more profitable than LTC.

I really wish I knew how to create my own multi coin pool

Payouts are out. Sorry for the delay.

I noticed some problems today (and fixed them) with the EU server, so it's still considered beta.

Great news on the Singapore server H2O thanks, I'm in australia so I can start using that server for now to test it out. Actually though, the west coast server has a very slightly less Ping (westcoast 173, Singapore 184) but i'll use singapore for testing

No, 8080 will still work.

Thanks!!  

I do sum pinging tomorow, and im hoping to test sum beta's  

[kingimg]

50% lower than LTC today!shit.

[Biggen]

Yeah today was a horrible day as far as payouts go. I hope it was because H2o was doing some work under the hood because if this happens again tomorrow im out to mine myself.

[sykal]

Very bad payday tonight...

[Shaban]

Maybe you people will start listening to me when I say that H2O is either

1) Stealing which is evidenced from his taking 90 bitcoins out of the pool and paying it to himself
2) Incompetent and has no idea what he's doing

You're in for more bad pay days guys. Any good pay day I would consider H2O is just trying to trick you into thinking everything is ok, then it will quickly go bad again.

I was questioning the 90+ BTC. So I did my research and saw that the 90+ BTC was paid back to the pool. You can check the transaction a few pages back... I got $73 out of it

How are people hashing that much? Are these generally companies? I can't even imagine an individual with 500+ GPUs

This address is a bit suspect for me, each time visit middlecoins www he have more Mh

What if its another pool owner pointing his Pool to Middlecoin using everyones hasing power to gain the profits and then sharing it with the pool?

You got $73? What do you mean? how come I didn't get anything ?

[gtraah]

I love mining during winter ... keeps the house cozy and warm

Any suggestions on the best hash capable card currently on newegg.com that is below $500 USD (ideally closer to the $400 mark) and best for khash/$? Too many decisions and options ... can't make my mind up ....

R9 280x. Just picked up a third last week. ~$400 and I get between 680-730 khash/s per card

I spent $450 on the R9 280x (TOXIC- OC) and without a doubt I get 750Kh STABLE nothing less unless the pool goes wacko then the hash drops but thats got nothing to do with the card. I have mined in other pools and constant 750KH all the way, They DO reach 815KH but then it starts to become abit unstable

I got $73 worth of BTC for that payout. I'm sure you got some too. Check the transaction and look up your address

[ellave]

Anyone else think that h20 is actually tealover?  He is trying to force people to leave the pool and reduce his work load 

Thanks for the Singapore server week give it a whirl, hopefully better then the others for us in Australia.

What the hell?!

New servers to handle the incoming load since hashcows?!?

Shouldn't you be busy stealing our BTC, h20?!

Man... I'm so confused.

[gtraah]

Funny I added an extra 800KH of Power yesterdat and received the lowest payout...

Look at the graph the red line is already up past half way of yesterdays payout and we are only a few hours into the day.. Thats how bad yesterday was. LOL,

Hopefully tonight makes up for it

[BombaUcigasa]

Today's payout is 19% LOWER than mining in a Litecoin pool would have been. And that's even comparing 25 hours middlecoin vs 24 hours Litecoin. Another wonderful day on middlecoin. /sarcasm

Today's payout on 1400khash: 0.012 BTC
LTC comparative pay on 1400khash: 0.462 LTC * 0.0298 BTC/LTC = 0.0138 BTC

Looks like 13% for me. Also because of the fee (3%), it's more like 10% lower than Litecoin. Right?

From Australia I'm getting
Singapore: 222

Thanks for this tip, a see that with your new code stales are successfully submited. h20, keep up the good work and show as some more programming masterpieces!
