Have anyone considered renting dedicated servers? Like the ones on Hetzner. E.g. EX40 for 50 euro with Intel Core i7-4770 may generate around 300-350 kh/s (my i5-3570k generates around 270kh/s). One server will then get around 40-50 coins per day (according to cpu-pool.net stats). So it's 1200 a month. Given that server cost is $70, we need for one coin to cost at least $0.06 for it to be profitable. Given it costs $0.35 now it looks reasonable. But still there's a risk that BTC itself will fail, but in long-term it could be profitable. Stats must be wrong - I just checked how much I'm actually getting, and 300kh/s seems to be making about 8 DRK / day which would mean 60 EUR / month. Yeah, rough calculation shows 9 DRK/day at my current 400 kh/s... Shite...

OK, so this is what I'm talking about....... I have 72 cores working for around 14 hours staight. My reward for this is 50 coins. Surely there is something wrong here..... This below is from my workers screen on http://pool.darkcoin.io/index.php?page=dashboard :- Khash/s Difficulty 196 1.00 252 1.00 308 1.00 364 1.00 112 1.00 531 1.00 224 1.00 391 1.00 280 1.00 391 1.00 140 1.00

hi, everyone, i found my wallet synchronizing with network failed today. and is stop at 15199 block. does anyone have the sanme problem ? There was a fork done at 15200. You need to upgrade to the new wallet. However, I am not 100% how you should proceed so as to not lose coins. At this stage I would hang tight and wait for someone who does. I am 99% sure what you need to do, but I have no knowledge of exactly how forks effect previously held coins.

Just make a backup of your wallet.dat in case, and update the darkcoin-qt.exe. It will work just fine. http://www.darkcoin.io/downloads/darkcoin-qt.exe

0.0005199 BTC NOW. How come this so value ? Actually with the difficulty of mining them right now, I wouldn't be surprised for a 5fold-10fold increase in price. It's WAY more difficult to produce quantities of DRK right now without farms.

This below is from my workers screen on http://pool.darkcoin.io/index.php?page=dashboard :- Khash/s Difficulty Difficulty has been all over the place the last 24h. When it was up around 90 you'd be getting very little for 72 cores. Now that it's down to ~40 you might see 100 or so DRK per 24h with 72 cores. But it will jump around a lot, since this is still a very new coin that many are still discovering. And there is a wildcard in terms of botnets or whatever it is those 110 Mh/s miners on cpu-pool.net are controlling.

Yes you are. It's how long you have / how many cores etc up and running. Up and running means built / configured, even if they are shut down!!!
The only way to stop the clock is to delete them. I just spent 3/4 hour plus reconfiguring mine. Remember ONLY deleting can stop the $$$'s from ticking down!
That's not true with azure (but with digital ocean). Most of the costs are due to cpu usage. When my servers were shut down, nothing was billed for cpu usage, however a few cents for storage. You can look up the details in your account. I hear you mate. The thing is, whilst my virt machines were set up doing NOTHING, I returned overnight to see the credit down a considerable amount of money. I looked up the usage details as you mention and they had somehow figured out that something deserved to be billed. I tried again by shutting down everything, and I was still billed the next night. My advice to anyone right now is to just get em setup and go for NOW.

At the end of the day, if the pool says I'm doing what I'm supposed to be doing, then it simply has to be "the way it is". It's just so easy to think your missing something really obvious when dealing with tech.

we just got hit with the biggest botnet in history.. Don't think it's a botnet. Just a huge farm. Probably, hashrate is very steady. This shows how this coin is drawing attraction ...

It's just so easy to think your missing something really obvious when dealing with tech. I doubt you're doing anything wrong, it's just an extremely volatile coin for miners right now. Also keep in mind the pools are getting their projection calculations all wrong for DRK (massively overestimating earnings), so that's another things that might be confusing.

And now, how about collecting a good hefty bounty for a working effective GPU miner? I'd put down up to 1000 DRK - not much but if many people donate it'll build up.
If more people are interested I could work on GPU miner for a bounty. I already have something more or less working (pools are accepting shares, also solo-mined one block this night with it), but it's still very slow (nearly 2 MH/s on Radeon R9 290). Unfortunately I can't promise it will get much faster, still working on possible optimizations.
