How high do you guys think the difficulty will go?

Obviously, to the moon!

to the bottom

it is not profitable to mine now
whole concept is broken

1/4 coins mined in 5 days

Why not profitable if exchange rate ~0.0065 BTC?

Something is wrong with your setup.

Low volume. Most orders are still below that. The new difficulty might make that price sustainable, we'll see.

Low volume?!

Pool comparison time.

PTSPool: http://54.238.185.113/

First one I tried two days ago, lots of rejects and hpm was low


Alpha Miner: http://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=236.0

Currently on here.  Brill thus far.  Has bugs that cause the pool to go down.


beeeeer: http://ptsweb.beeeeer.org

Tried it for about an hour.  Seemed very very slow.


Your thoughts and experience?

[testz]

+1 to Alpha pool

testz, you've been here since the begining.

have you tied the first pool again?  I have an urge to try it again.  Anyone have any feedback?

Nice one. This was needed.

alpha miner pool seems to be offline, im liking the user view on beeeeer but the miner crashes on ctrl+c

Are you serious?

yes, 500.000 coins are mined already so it is 25% coin supply

i  mean 25% coin supply is distributed already.

my setup is fine, 75hpm total
but now i get tiny fractions of coins every block...

[Lauda]

yes, 500.000 coins are mined already so it is 25% coin supply

can someone confirm this?

[bbxx]

yes, 500.000 coins are mined already so it is 25% coin supply

can someone confirm this?

12k blocks, 50 reward at start, now about 35
do the math

Give me the formula for this?

[FreeTrade]

I'm with new version, solo - no block
What "collisionspermin"  means?

{
"collisionspermin" : 12.79795233,

}

is this not the replacement for HPM (HashPerMinute) ?

Yes - collisions per minute is a more accurate reflection of your performance. A single hash might contain zero collisions or many, i've seen up to about 8. Some algorithms are better at finding them. More info here -

My back of the envelope calculations for solo mining on personal hardwarde -

i7 3700 - 100watts
Estimate 8 days to find a block
Electric $2.31
Current value 36coins x $1.92 = $69.12

If I had a room full of i7s, I'd switch them all on. Nice heating effect in the winter too.

Not sure about the economics of cloud or vps mining.

What's the estimate on an i5?
How many colisionspersec do you get?

...and hoping it isnt throwing any steel blocks...
