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

[unhooked]

Does anyone know of a pool for SHA-256 like Middlecoin?

I know there is Multipool and Bitmark but they don't see to have many SHA-256 alt coins. Tompool is not taking new members at the moment but he does seem to have all the right coins.

Is it just me or is anyone else getting low accepted rates for the last 48 hours, has the graphs/stats changed maybe its not updating as fast as it used to?

I've come to the conclusion that It's not even worth mining until the switching algorithm is fixed. It's like finding a penny every day. It's been two days, surely it could have been fixed :/

I have a question about Middlecoin. I have been trying the pool for about two days now, but I seem to get much lower hashrates than with other pools.

I have a dual 5870 rig, when I point it to, for example, the give me coins pool I get a low hashrate of about 600kh/s, a high of about 1100kh/s, and an average of about 750kh/s. This is about right, my cgminer tells me the average is about 765kh/s.

Now, with Middlecoin I have seen lows of ~300kh/s, and highs of max 860kh/s. Middlecoin does not give an average, but when I look at my stats, it looks like it's lower than ~750kh/s.

I also notice the fans on my GPU's constantly spinning up/down, whereas with other pools they are at max speed all the time. So it seems that with the Middlecoin pool my GPU's are not working at 100% all the time. I understand there ar some short periods of no activity when the pool switches coins, but I really get the feeling it is not working optimal?

Can anyone tell me if there is anything I can do about this? Or is this just the way this pool works?

I have two payments on Dec 22nd that show up on my middlecoin account and paid and appear on blockchain.info but neither payment is showing up in my coinbase account.

https://blockchain.info/address/1278USLSVEgbm9NKjjD3ukt9him5pjnbHi#

my addresses are:

19svTW8kV8kGfQyUGn8k4AKGhoooGrH4PG


But when i check coinbase these amounts are not there (was suppose to be paid yesterday). if it shows up on the ledger, doesn't it have to be in the account? why am I missing these payments for both addresses on this date?

+1. We all contribute to the pool and this should be the forum to voice feedback, etc. No one should be banned unless they are breaking forum rules.

There were some disconnect issues yesterday, however, since then I haven't had any issues. Payout today is already up to 0.1 for me, with 0.22BTC looking like where I'll end up... My hashrate is around 0.5-0.75MH/s under where it should, however, this could just be due to stales / pool variability.

I would message Coinbase support about this - If the payment was sent to the correct address and shows up in the blockchain then the pool/you did everything right.

Ok, I will do that. So, just to be clear, if it's in the blockchain ledger, the payment happened? Makes me very nervous that coinbase might have not seen/received my payment...

Yeah, as long as the blockchain shows the transfer, and the address the BTC was sent to matches the Coinbase one (have you received payments to these addresses before through middlecoin?), then unless there was a fork (which we would know about) you should have received your payment. I also receive payments from middlecoin to Coinbase, and last nights came through fine. If you message support and reference the blockchain transaction id then they should be able to look into it / resolve it fairly quickly.

does anyone know why I'm getting these dips in temperature?
They seem to be for only short periods of time and I've only caught it in the act once but the voltages drop, the clock/memory cores drop and therefore the temperature of each card as well.

any ideas?

Most likely this is due to work temporarily not being available from the pool. The dips usually last until the next block is detected, then the cards heat back up :]  The problem is if the machine gets "stuck" idling and doesn't restart work automatically. Having multiple pools should in theory fix this, however, yesterday was still a little rough, with miners needing to be manually restarted.

yes, I have been paid before on both of the addresses I used...but both did not come through yesterday. thanks for the info, I reached out to coinbase and they are looking into it. very concerning though...

It seems like Dogecoin has climbed up again to 1:th place on cryptsy again. +29.48 % up from last day. We are still mining it.

op making good profit thanks to all miners, i think there should be room for suggestions and improvement and not just following blindly.

The OP is making good profits because he's good at what he does. There is no "simple" algorithm for predicting what a coin will be worth after mining it for a day, or even an hour... especially if it's not being moved at the exchanges. Also, the coin being mined by the pool is not made public, and h2o has indicated several times that he will not reveal it - that's pretty much "following blindly" and judging by the 200% growth in the last week, plenty of miners are willing to do just that.

If you don't believe the operator knows what he's doing after the last week or so there is probably nothing that can convince you that he does, and you can go mine somewhere else. I'm all for suggestions and improvement, but complaining that the pool isn't mining the right coin is pretty stupid after last week.

[RickJamesBTC]

It doesn't matter if he says what the coin is in public, you just have to compare the working difficulty to the list.

I never said it was hard to figure out what the pool is mining, just that the coin isn't published. More to the point, his algorithm for switching isn't published.
