I mine PTS on my own PC, what's the benefit of using it on a Cloud server? What's the ROI on it as well?

lmao

ROI is decent but I have yet to test it out after the recent 4x difficulty increase, before that, it was amazing. The benefit of a cloud server is that you can mine on your PC while mining on the cloud server so you can get paid from both locations - this would allow you to make more money than what your making from just your PC.

Update: For a limited time if you sign up now, you'll get 0.40 PTS (next 24 hours). Just make sure to record & post here proof of you singing up!

[UPDATE]

#1 I have talked to one of the curecoin devs and when the coin is released I plan on working to create a cloud mining guide for it within the first few days. The reward for signing up under me will most likely be split: you will get roughly $2 in curecoin + $2 will also be sent to the red cross, or another popular charity.

#2 I am running a test on digital ocean for ~24 hours for 5 of the $80/month 4 CPU instances. I will let you know how it goes and whether or not it is profitable. The cost for this time will be $14.40, so I want to get 1.75 PTS to start making a profit.

I've been getting some questions about those using putty ssh to log in - with putty it appears if you close the session, it does stop mining - does anyone else have recommendations / info on this.

Guys, be on the look out for a guide to get free mining w/ Windows Azure free trial - free money for a month and then you can shut it down and take your earnings - no cost to you. Relatively newbie friendly (no entering code into a command console, its like setting up a new miner on Windows 7)

Cloud mining protoshare test completed: 15% profitability on 5x $80/month servers (probably higher now since Bitcoin's price has literally gone up 50% in the last 24 hours while protoshare's price has only gone down ~25%.

Be on the look out for a primecoin test and the new curecoin guide which hopefully will come out soon (if they ever release the coin... I'm very impatient.) Also remember to sign up for a cloud server under my referral link for profitable rewards + a bonus for signing up (increasing your profitability even more!)

Looks good man. How many PTS would just one droplet generate in around a day ?

Depends on the size of the droplet.

Depends on the size of the droplet.

However, don't be surprised if one droplet generates less than an equivalent core CPU - these things are slower than equivalent core CPU but they do work well for there purpose and are still profitable.

I've been getting some questions about those using putty ssh to log in - with putty it appears if you close the session, it does stop mining - does anyone else have recommendations / info on this.

They can send the process to background

Code:
nohup ./protoshared -daemon&
to check the log
Code:
tail -f nohup.out

same for the miner ..

You can also use screen.
Code:
screen ./ptsminer <address> <number of threads>

Thanks for all the wonderful code recommendations guys! Remember if you have any recommendations relating to the code, I would highly appreciate them - or guides for how to do it with different clients (SSH Putty ect.)
