ZEC only PPLNS?

Currently yes.
We plan to add RBPPS and maybe PPS when we have 300 solved blocks.

Thanks for the  SSL/TLS secure support.

We are experiencing some issues with FTC pool wallet.
We stopped pool and re-syncing pool's wallet .

[molitar]

Your wallet sync is so messed up that my 10.03 eth got paid out to somebody else's wallet!  The wallet shows correct address when I log in but my coins are gone!   I want to know what happened that is almost 2 weeks of mining for me and to lose it all in one go because your system paid it to someone elses wallet I can not afford.  I am not sure how I am going to make my payment when I have lost so much money!

I replied to you in email with details of our investigation.
 
I checked all server logs and it seems that attacker had access to your email account, your Coinotron account and additionally performed change of payout address and unlock payout address operations from the same ip that you are using! Please check out your emails. You will find four December's emails with unlock codes automatically sent by our system. All codes have been used. Payout address was changed 4 times

You must be victim of some kind of spyware/malware or someone just accessed your computer without your knowledge.

FYI.

FTC pool is up and running.

Can you please freeze my wallet address from being changed?  Also do not let my password recovery be done.  I have lost over 50 coins now so far from this professional hacker. I expect he is using a method like this because I never received your email reply to me or emails from your system currently.

Man-in-the-middle attack: Imagine two hosts participating in normal transmissions between each other. In a man-in-the-middle attack, a malicious machine intercepts the packets sent between these machines, alters the packets and then sends them on to the intended destination, with the originating and receiving machines unaware their communications have been tampered with; this is where the spoofing element enters the equation.

Typically, this type of attack is used to get targets to reveal secure information and continue such transmissions for a period of time, all the while unaware that the machine in the middle of the transmission is eavesdropping the whole time.

I am seriously going to go broke at this rate.  Please figure out a way to implement a two factor method as it is too easy for these hackers to hack ones information anymore and cyber currency crimes are at an all time high   Emails are too insecure for such security measures.

We have 2FA, we support Google Authenticator.

I'm really sorry for this. Lets switch to PM on bitcointalk.

[coinotron]

ZCash: 0% True PPS mining. Just change worker type to PPS and enjoy no fee PPS.



( until 2017-01-15 or pool's hashrate > 3 MH/s )

ZCash pool:

We added support for EWBF's CUDA miner: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1707546.0

Hey coinotron, quick question on zec mining.  can you withdraw to an exchange with payment id ?  In any case, keep up the good work !

Hi

I'm not sure what do you mean by payment id.
You can withdraw to t-address on exchange. Currently you cannot withdraw to z-address

[fr4nkthetank]

Oh Its too early for me.  I got confused with xmr.  I need a coffee.   

[toptek]

hey once again thank you for PPS for Zec mining.

After the 13 th will it stay PPS mining for Zcash or go back to PPLNS for Zec mining, I don't care about the fee as log as it is reason able . ant-pool Zec PPS is now fee free but i don't trust them much for others reasons. I know you won't comment much on that, i don't want you to  . so i don't trust there fee free PPS mining, it is never to clear with them, just what they mean .
 

The guy that asked about ID payout was talking about XMR, you all don't do yet .


Thanks top.

The plan is to encourage miners to mine ZEC in our pool by 0% fee mining. We intent to keep it as long as it is safe. As you probably know in a along run 0% PPS pool almost always gets bankrupt. So it is a matter of hashrate vs our resources
We are constantly monitoring PPS stats, pool's luck etc. After this promotional period we plan to keep PPS mode and introduce exactly the same fees as in LTC pool, unless ZEC mining turns out to have higher risk level.

[toptek]

I do expect to pay a fee for PPS mining at some point ,I do wish it could remain fee less for ever
and
when you do it i won't get mad .!!!' it won't be if you do, it will be a matter of when . ...!!

Later top .

Well I have mined two days zec and got value as one day mining ... so I am not encouraged to mine this currency and maybe never will be back even with negative fee.

did you select PPS for your worker ?  So far my results are very good, better than any other pool I can see.  PPLNS might be why, smaller hashrates get more variance.

[pehoko]

No, there was no such option, only pplns and all mined zec comes to account after few days. As coinotron says pps pool need much more hash power or will be waste of resources.
