LOTTOCOIN OLD THREAD, [CLOSED]

[YoyodyneSystems]

According to explorer :
LottoCoin Block Explorer (ABE) for for LottoCoin is available here:

 http://23.20.189.121/

1,825,841,966 coins. Shouldn't it be half that? Even with the Lotto bonus. Unless my math is wrong.
Anyone?

Figured about 80 million per day originally. I guess it's more like 100 million per day total? +2% premine. 360mil

14 days out = 1400 million + 360 pre = 1760mil

I guess that is about right. 1/6 the size of DOGE which is nice for rarity. And then 1/8 the coins per day of DOGE generated.
DOGE makes 720 million coins per day. So 100 million for LOT is pretty sweet in terms of keeping mining dumps down.

Looks like I have now encountered a problem on coinbomb.

I managed to get in on one I can afford - got the green message to deposit 410262 coins.  Sent the deposit, but when the page refreshed it says the spot is reserved for somebody else (the same person that is spamming it all the time and reserving before anyone else).

So now it looks like ive sent the deposit for somebody else!!!  WTF?!?!?!   410,262 coinc may not be a lot to some, its more than half what I have now!!   

I'll PM redcoin and see what happens..

Did your transaction confirm? If it wasn't broadcasted then it shouldn't matter.

Well it clearly didn't go through. Price is still the same.

I had the same problem earlier, bought a lot, but my internet dropped. my transaction was never confirmed and I had to manually remove it (it never even appeared on the blockchain). Took me 1 hour with pywallet and then -rescan with lottocoin-qt.exe

Someone else had this problem recently and he was refunded already. Don't worry about your coins the guy running coinbomb seems to be honest.

Yes, server was down for a little while due to me being an idiot.

Anyway, thanks for the donations. Keep em coming ))

Here is the diff against bitcoin-abe:

Its not a gamble if the game just takes your coins and puts somebody else at the table.  It would be like me handing the $100 bill to the cashier, and them giving my chips to the next guy in line.  I didn't even get to play!

I've sent a PM to redcoin, and hopefully he will fix the issue.   When I try to buy again, it says "you already have one pending purchase" - but Im not listed in the reserved spot.   Game broke on me.

The luck isn't at our side today, again more than 100% average.
normally i would mine 300K at this  swining difficulty.
But on 11hours only 70K with 1500 kh/s

well you did a lot better than I did, I've been back to solo mining since the diff is low again.. and I got like 20k for the past 10 hours with roughly the same hashing speed as yours.. I keep getting these stupid <1000 blocks (

why don't you mine in a pool ?

Looks like I got the coins refunded - thanks to redcoin, first class service.

just unlucky, keep with solo, you will get many coin soon
at the end the return is the same with solo or pool, but in solo there are not fee

Yep - the transaction confirmed.  but the website did not put me in the reserved spot, even though I got the green message asking for the deposit.  All is refunded now.

Though of course it will probably be next month before I manage to get another chance to buy in as everyone is having to compete against those that are cheating to get in first.

because solo mining this coin is a lot more fun, yeah you may get a lot of lemons, but hey you never know when you hit one of them bonus blocks

Nut2pool is 0% fee throughout the year.

IMHO, given that this coin has its own "luck" integrated into the values of blocks found, then pool mining is the only sensible way forward unless you have like 40/50 MHash/s.

Pool mining irons out the inbuilt luck of the coin itself and returns it back to a normal mining average.  If it was a standard payout coin like others, then I would agree that based over a long time solo and pool mining should return the same average.

However, given that this coin has these nice "mega blocks" etc, these are much more likely to be found in a pool, so better to have a share of those than hope you may get one of them solo mining.  Anything below crazy high hash rate now that the difficulty is no longer the 0.6 it used to be in early days, its just not as profitable solo mining on this coin, im absolutely convinced of it.

That's the idea of lotto games, also one of the unique features of this coin

very low price of lottocoin , even not worth of mining !

[C3ALL]

True,  but if there were a syndicate for the lottery that had more than half the tickets, would you fancy your chances of winning on your own, or getting a smaller jackpot as part of a group.

If you like the risk/thrill of solo mining and dont actually want to be guaranteed a return from your mining rig, then solo away.  If you want to make a more guaranteed return from your rig, thenn pool.

All imho of course and individual results may vary lol.

A merry Christmas and a propserous new year to all
