What kind of speeds are you guys getting cpu mining? I'm getting 498-502 kh/s with my i5-4670k @ 4.5 GHz.

About the same with a i7-2600k @ 4.0 GHz

Can more people please come join us at LotteryPool?  We have a weekly lottery from half the pool fees, which are only 1% so effectively 0.5% pool fees with the fun of a lottery to look forward to.

The owner has upgraded to a faster/more reliable server and I haven't seen any down time yet!  It's working smooth as silk ATM, so come join us!!!  The more people we have, the larger the lotto pool/winning and the funner it is to mine!!!!

The pool is great, however people are most likely hesitant of any sort of lottery. They see it akin to snake oil - one is more likely to die in a plane crash than hit the jackpot.

Not to say that the pool in question isn't fair, but perhaps if it were explained in a more pragmatic manner I would consider joining.

Thanks.

How the lottery works:

When you mine there, the system takes a snapshot several times a day, to find active miners, the system allows a 35 % variance in activity, so that all miners are accounted for, the way it has been running so far is that everyone mining gets 1 lotteryticket per day, so, for example

a b and c are mining at the pool

a mines at 2 MH/s with 1 worker
b mines at 20 MH/s with 5 workers
c mines at 200 KH/s with 2 workers

so a,b and c gets each 1 lottery ticket.

and the end of the period a list is compiled with all the names in it, like following

a mined for 4 days
b mined for 1 day
c mined for 3 days

the list would look like this:

a
a
a
a
b
c
c
c

then this list is taken to random.org's list randomizer and run through X number of times (determined by random.org's random number generator
with a number from 1 to 100)

then we do a random number generator with the number of lines in that list, in this case 8

that number coming out, is the winner

After todays lottery, we are changing the way the lottery goes about, instead of once per week, we are going to do it EVERY day instead
and for the next 7 days, im going to add 28.5 DRK on top of the lottery pool which consists of 50% of all fees collected

edit: And for those wondering, nope, my name is never on that list, so i can never win.

You battled the tooth fairy - you are already a winner

Has it already been mentioned somewhere in this thread about how much less power it takes to mine Dark? I know the thread title says it runs cooler which is great and all, but I think a pretty cool selling point is how much less electricity you use to mine it. My experience:

3x 280x rig mining Scrypt - 900W as measured with kill a watt meter
Same rig mining Dark - 490W

If you pay high electric rates that's a huge savings!

+1 Voted for all three, wish I could vote again.  Now all I can do is spread the word!

It may have been mentioned already but how about getting the faucet up and running. There's a link to it on the website and it would seem more professional if it were working. I could probably donate a few coins and the higher the price gets, the lower the number of coins I would be willing to give - I imagine it's the same for many people.

you are more than welcome to add funds to the faucet, ive allready used 1000 darkcoins on it, and think its time for others to dip in as well, the donation address is at the faucet...

This is all I see when I go to the faucet:


Clicking "Request Free Darkcoins" does nothing and I can't see any address to make a deposit.

Aside from potential and how awesome this coin is, for me this is by far the best coin to mine because power is expensive where I live...

Mining with 4x280x GPUs undervolted.
Scyrpt: 970W
Dark X11: 520W

That's almost half the cost in power!!! Let alone the GPUs stay around 30 degree's cooler and less noise from fans!

Looking into this. thanks

[rygamble]

So I was just running the calculations... seems like this is horribly unprofitable to mine directly. Did I calculate something wrong?

[maddi]

yeah. its look like not porfitable now but wait to add the other exchager site to add darkcoin on their list. after that you will be happy...

Eh looks like I'll just mine something else and add some buy support for this coin.

[blajde]

we are growing, come and help mine darkcoin, and get a chance of winning the lottery pool.

Pool Pays Witdrawal fee: 0.0

Please spread your hashing power, we dont want 1 pool to have >50%

DDOS Protected pool

Come over to the new server, its blasting fast compared to the old server
old miners, your miners have been port forwarded to the new server,
when you get the time, change it to stratum+tcp://lotterymining.com:4444

the following 6 days there will be a draw EACH day, for 50% of the fees + 28.5 DRK

I started mining here - It's nice to be able to get some reasonable shares with little hash power... Come on Lottery!

Also, I'm going to have to start learning German soon anyway

I don't know how German is related here but anyways..


More people to lotterymining!! Come on people! It's Golden!

Also, I have one powercolor and one gigabyte 280x on the way. Does anyone have settings for 2.2mh/s+ ??

[kadrek]

Is there a site where I can calculate how many coins I can get per day?

[Del137]

http://pool.darkcoin.io/  validity hanging at 119 for 20 hours, is it normal?

[tifozi]

Looks like network hash has increased and some miners are gone from p2pool, so p2pool has not been doing well come back on guys.

[tifozi]

Is there a site where I can calculate how many coins I can get per day?

CoinsPerDay/ Mh = Block Reward / (Difficulty*0.0497102696)

On the IRC #darkcoin channel, you can run a command like this to get an idea as well

Code:

<tifozi> !calc 1000
<Dark-Bot> tifozi: DarkCoin [DRK] estimated income for 1000 KH/s @ current difficulty of 265.4120 = 0.07 DRK per hour (0.00010399 BTC/$0.07 USD), 1 BTC in 400.68 days

It's fine, there's a cron that's stuck atm. looking into it
