Is there a way to turn the ledger on? Payout's on Hashcows do not coincide with the days in my timezone, which makes it impossible to track payouts for me. I can't sit around all day refreshing the balance page, to see when and what has been awarded that day.

yes i would like to see an itemized ledger for block vs payout under userinfo.
even if it was in the native coins vs btc..
something like

round# maturedcoins %ofroundshares %coinsearned btcamount

that way we can figure btc/hr and see our profits.

My account says its been pending for 9.5 hours now.. A previous statement said they had been pushed through, but not in this case.. What do I need to do now?

If your cashout was for > 0.0005 you should have this by now.   We ran into further issues with the daemon and had to do a full downgrade.

Hi, I'm new to the pool, I just set up my account and started mining yesterday. It has been over 24 hours and I haven't seen a payout yet - I'm a little confused as to how this works. I put in both my btc and mint addresses under coin settings and I have payout set to mint not btc. It says I have about 0.0015 "confirmed exchanged" and about 0.0011 "unexchanged" (I am assuming these figures are in terms of btc.)

When I go to balances and cashout, it shows these same figures in the top section, but under "altcoin balances" and "currently pending cashouts" I don't see anything.

Shouldn't my btc have already been converted to mint and sent to me, or is that not how it works? Sorry to be a bother, I just want to make sure I don't have something set up incorrectly.

When you get 'paid out in mint' your mint balance on the alt-coin balances section should increase once daily at around 03:30 UTC, at which point you can then cash it out or set a threshold to have it automatically sent.

The estimated and confirmed exchanged figures are currently in BTC only.  We'll work to get them displaying in the cashed out currency in the coming days.

By around midnight EST a batch of mintcoins showed up and I was able to cash them out. So it does work it's just not super clear what's going on at first. I get that it's new and they are still tweaking it.

Hi there,

I know you had problems with BTC payouts, but before that happened, I looked at my balance and it was around 0.08 in current balance and 0.09 in confirmed exchanged. After that it went to 0.02 in confirmed exchanged and and 0 current balance. So I was expecting to get around 0.15 BTC but when I finally received the payment today, it was only 0.105

Could you please look into this?

[Zels]

Quick question.

What's the point to mine coin that u can't exchange once they're done and wait 3 - 4 days to exchange them.

We mine coin at day1 with a value of x btc , you wait 3 days and coin value decrease, not really like that an auto-profit switch pool should work 
Trade them every day, or if u can't, just don't mine them.

I'm excited about the getting paid out in mint feature I just pointed my rig that way :-D !!!

i had a balance over this minimum balance of 0.0005 and only a balance lower then that at this current moment with no payouts recorded on the blockchain since 3/2/2014. not even zero confirmation transactions. so what happened to this payment?

Hashcows has been mining the wrong fork of SMC every since block 120,000.  Also Dedicated pool is on the wrong fork as well as Cryptsy.  Cryptsy has no idea and is still trading the coin.  The payout per block since block 120,000 is only 16 coins NOT 64 coins.  According to the dev hash.so is on the correct fork however they have withdrawals disabled and haven't paid out a block in days.

The coin forked on March 24th:

This doesn't surprise me at all. Since Christmas the pool seems to have had a lobotomy; whatever seems to have happened, there's a massive difference between Hashcows 2013 and Hashcows 2014.

With a bit of luck we'll turn the corner soon and see a return to the glory days. When operating normally, this is a superb high performance pool and I'm probably not alone wanting to see the professional edge return.

Good luck with it all.

Is it possible to see the hashrate of just the people "mining mint" ? I couldn't find this info anywhere. Thanks in advance.

Honestly all the good multipools are struggling right now. I have had a lot of issues with Wafflepool lately and they are usually awesome.

being paid out in EAC would be wonderful

Auto payout of 0.01 is too low.
Please increase this to 0.05 or at least 0.02.

I understand that HashCows is not a bank, but if low auto payments are needed then lower the transaction charge.
A transaction charge of 0.0001 and 0.01 auto payout will mean we loose up to another 1% a day.

Other suggestions are to stop mining very low value coins like LOT which exchanges for 3 satoshi at the time of this post.
We may end up with lots of coins we cannot exchange like what happened with FLAP.
I suggest a minimum value of 10 satoshi per coin.

Does Hashcows evaluate market depth when determining whether to mine a coin, and/or how extensively to mine it?

Yes, every poll of profitability takes market depth into account, including taking our own current un-traded coin balances into account.

i think the biggest issue with this pool is you cant tell how much you are getting per hour.
some of the coins seem to take so long to get exchanged that you might not make much one day then the next you get a huge payout.

also there is no ledger on past coins.. i know i have some that haven't been exchanged for weeks.
i stopping mining this pool for a whole week and still showed an unexchanged balance when i came back.
those ones just seem to be stuck in the system.


it would be nice to have a history on coins that have been matured and exchanged based on your part of the share.. so you can estimate btc/hr

im torn between this pool and mining ltc for the best profit.

Yes, overall I like the pool but the inability to easily tell how much I earned per hour/day/etc is a little frustrating. The numbers keep changing and it is very hard to see how much I am actually making.

Same..  I tried it for a day and just not informative enough (now I can't even get what I did earn out - tried 3 manual cashouts in 3 days, coins still stuck, even though I'm above the minimum).

Back to coin specific pools for me...

+1 => I'm disappointed
The site announce 0.00678 BTC\MHs\24h and  i'm mining with 2,8Mh/s 20 hours - what is my balance? Let me show you:
 Confirmed Exchanged     Current Balance   
 0.00193698             0.00392053

Shall i continue mining here - NO, thanks! Big waste of time!
