Hello,  

I have created http://allchains.info which contains  block information taken from all fork chains,  current bid/ask prices taken from exchanges, profit/break-even points of forks compared to mining bitcoin at current difficulties, total speed of each chain, and what the next difficulty will be (and when it will change).

Let me know if you think of something else you would like to see there.  I hope that it is useful.  I will be on top of any new forks that come out and have their information up on day one.

News
2013-04-06 : Fixed the chain size data.

Please provide feedback here or in irc if you have comments on my current work in progress or other ideas.

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

SolidCoin difficulty is incorrect.

Your website shows 8336 and says that the next update is in 0d 1hr 49m 59s and should be approximately 4547 at that time.

Currently SolidCoin.exe getdifficulty returns 4730.80785762

Up to now I've not noticed any inaccuracies and think that this one page has tons of useful info.  Smiley

"We are currently aware of an issue with the host that your Linode resides on. This issue requires a reboot to resolve. We do apologize for any inconvenience this issue may cause. Your patience and understanding is greatly appreciated. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns."

Apparently they had to reboot last night.  Today I will create the watchdog scripts and save/restore state so this wont affect things in the future.  If there is a problem like that, always check the update time at the top to make sure the information is current.

Looks like it's back up!

Edit: I didn't see the TINY red message at the top.  The site looks like it was built for 640x480 or mobile devices.  I recommend building it for modern equipment, ie. 1024 wide at the minimum, with larger fonts.  That tiny red text gets lost on 1920 wide screens Smiley

Thank you sir.  They are greatly appreciated.

Please post any ideas you have.  I will be expanding.  So far the ideas on the table are: create a profit trend graph for each fork to see how it stacks up to btc over time... and  create an aggregated small font market that shows buy/sell data for all forks on one page.

The difficulty was lagging behind because of one accidentally deleted line in my script.  I consolidated all 5 chain's difficulty scripts into one to make it easier to manage.  Sorry, its fixed now and should work properly.  If you let me know if something is off in irc I will immediately check into it.

After reading about GeistGeld,  I definitely do not want to run that on my main server.  I can look into running it in a vm at home and auto uploading stats.  I will read about it more first.  Thanks for the heads up.  Typically I only want to track coins that have an exchange available but maybe I can make a second page to give stats on this type of fork.

Hello,  

I have created http://allchains.info which contains  block information taken from the 5 clients (btc, nmc, ixc, i0c, sc), current bid/ask prices taken from exchanges, profit/break-even points of forks compared to mining bitcoin at current difficulties, total speed of each chain, and what the next difficulty will be (and when it will change).

Let me know if you think of something else you would like to see there.  I hope that it is useful.  I will be on top of any new forks that come out and have their information up on day one.


Current Work in Progress - Updated 9-11-2011
1. Provide an RSS feed to push out changes when a fork becomes the most profitable. (Created, determining what information will be most useful to push.)
2. Start logging data for future graphs (fork profit compared to btc over time..)
3. Determine what types of graphs will be useful to each audience.
4. Create a 'mobile' version for each fork that gives the data in a concise list for people who have cheap crappy cell phones (like me) that have no resolution.

Please provide feedback here or in irc if you have comments on my current work in progress or other ideas.

Very helpful site.

Cool cool, glad it gets some use.  Do you have any suggestions for more info you would like to see?   I am thinking about adding total chain speed over the last "n" blocks instead of the current which is the total speed for the cycle.

I'm totally happy with current version Smiley

I know. Charts. I can't find good charts for alternate coins. And for bitcoin as well.

Well I don't touch java, but I will look into using R or graphviz to create some charts.  Smiley

Love the site!  I do believe that Ixcoin is readjusting difficulty at 144 blocks now.  https://ixcoin.org/wiki/index.php?title=Difficulty
