What is the EU server address/port for mining?

On the website I only see "cgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://middlecoin.com:3333 -u <your bitcoin address> -p x" as an example and the FAQ page doesn't work atm (404)

Add eu in front the the US address to get the EU server... i.e. stratum+tcp://eu.middlecoin.com:3333

You are probably aware but there is a rogue sell order on coins-e that is throwing off the profitability on coinwarz, I presume you are using that site as we are still on doge but it's only the 10th most profitable coin at the correct rate.

What is a rogue sell order?

An order of small quantity significantly above or below the market price for the sole purpose of manipulating the reported price of a currency. If I had two accounts on an exchange, I could sell 1 DOGE for 0.001 BTC... it will bump the reported price up / many trigger some auto-sell bots (at higher price)...

Edit: In other news I'm glad to see we are back online :]  I had to manually restart 2 miners, the other currently pointed at the pool restarted automatically... probably a good time for my lazy butt to add backup pools haha.

coinGeek's graphs aren't working because of a change I made. Later tomorrow I'll modify it back to the way it was, so his graphs should start working again.

What are average earnings these days when mining on your pool with 4 MH/s? When I check that table, profits are so various, from 0.015 up to 1.5 BTC per day?

With 700~ KH/s i get 0.025~ per day.

I admire your optimism, however one thing 4MH/s won't get you is 1.5 BTC a day (as much as I wish it did). Right now we are in a period of high profitability, with 4 MH/s earning around 0.1-0.12 BTC a day. There was one day it reached 0.15BTC, however, that was certainly an exception. Over the past month or so, it averaged quite a bit lower, around 0.06BTC or so for that hashing power.

Yes, looks like there's no redirect on the middlecoin.com JSON URL. I put in the new (probably temporary middlecoin2.s3-...) URL in the data gathering program and it seems to be working again for now. There will be about 7 hours of lost data and, of course, it might break when h2odysee fixes things again.

In other news...

I fixed a bug in the graph code where a bunch of personal graphs weren't auto updating. If you're active, with a non-zero hash rate for the last hour or so, and your graph isn't updating, pm me. You can tell when you graph updated by looking at the line "Latest Values in BTC...". The UTC date and time should be in the last hour or so.

For those who are interested, it was one of those bugs where the program runs fine from the command line and not quite right as a cron job. Also, remember it ran fine from cron as long as there were under 2000 active users... If you know what I'm talking about than you know what a head scratcher those kind of bugs can be.

Just made a little rewrite of the code to show 2 addresses if anyone needs it..

**may need to change the address back to http://www.middlecoin.com/ after H20 will fix his stuff.

Code:

// ==UserScript==
// @name        Middlecoin
// @namespace   middlecoin
// @include     http://middlecoin.com/
// @include     http://middlecoin2.s3-website-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/
// @version     1
// @grant       none
// ==/UserScript==

var username1 = '<enter your bitcoin address here>';
var username2 = '<enter your bitcoin address here>';


    // get all rows excluding the first one and the one with your username
var rows = document.evaluate('//table/tbody/tr[position()>1 and (not(contains(., "' + username1 + '" )) and not(contains(., "' + username2 + '" )))]', document, null, 6, null), i;

for (i = 0; i < rows.snapshotLength; i += 1 ) {
    // hide all of them
    rows.snapshotItem(i).style.display = 'none';
}

source:

Hope this helps people.  Requires Safari and I think Chrome has a version now, but took the original poster here's GreaseMonkey script concept to the next level.  This will return just the header and your bitcoin address on the webpage.  Just replace <enter your bitcoin address here> with your own address between the quotes.

Code:

// ==UserScript==
// @name        Middlecoin
// @namespace   middlecoin
// @include     http://middlecoin.com/
// @include     http://www.middlecoin.com/
// @version     1
// @grant       none
// ==/UserScript==

var username = '<enter your bitcoin address here>';

    // get all rows excluding the first one and the one with your username
var rows = document.evaluate('//table/tbody/tr[position()>1 and not(contains(., "' + username + '"))]', document, null, 6, null), i;

for (i = 0; i < rows.snapshotLength; i += 1) {
    // hide all of them
    rows.snapshotItem(i).style.display = 'none';
}

Note can't take full credit for this.  Had some outside forum help.

pool down again

ETA: pool up again

[soilworker]

Im mining the whole day, the eu server is stable, my hashrate is updating, but my balance didn't move at all...

[IZON]

It seems interesting is it still worth a try?
Any current users that could give some feedback?

[Evilunclebill]

So I just jumped the wagon today and started mining here.
The past half an hour or so my miners suddenly goes to 0% load.
After restarting Cgminer (in one case reboot) all is fine again, anyone else had/have this issue?

Edit: switching to the EU server solved it.

[Firebug24k]

Summary:  profitibility still high, server is a bit unstable, set this as primary pool and have a backup.  Relax and enjoy.

Because of all the new miners joining this pool, they are having some problems. But they are actively working on it and it should be fixed soon.

[IZON]

So some says this is a good backup and other says its good.
No one that says otherwise?

I started mining several days ago...haven't received a payment at all. my balance shows 0.20277095

Can you please look into this?

How many days? and what hashing rate?

Hi, guys I modified Michwill's python script for myself but maybe it'll be useful for others.

- shows all available info,
- refreshes itself on configurable intervals,
- displays balances in full BTC or microBTC,
- can use average and last exchange rates from BTC-E and Mt.Gox for estimating your Middlecoin balances in USD,
- shows exchange rates for BTC-E and Mt.Gox,
EDIT:
- update with fix for people with no payments yet,
- added Bitstamp exchange rates,
- added option to toggle exchanges display,
EDIT2:
- added EUR support.

script dl:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/89lmek87a9a3oo2/mdc2.py

EDIT:
moved to github: https://github.com/michwill/mdc
To use this you need Python 2.7 ( http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.7/ )
To config edit values at the start of the script.
Run through terminal or just double click the script.

On the subject of the pool itself, I find it astounding. There are minor stability issues but considering the massive influx of new users it works suprisingly well while h2o manages to bring us high profit. Much respect to him. However the site could be updated with the missing info on the payment treshold change and EU server adress.
