[ANN][POOL] ipoMiner - Profitable multipool targeting new coins + merged mining!

[ipominer]

The site uses shares submitted, which isn't really a reflection of your "hashrate" reported by your miner - it is what your miner calls work units. On my own Gridseeds, I've noticed that if I use higher difficulty I see a big variance in my shares submitted per 10 minutes. I use 128 for my 6MH and 10MH rigs of Gridseeds. For less than 16 of the 5-chip Gridseeds, I would use 64 for your difficulty.

Have we really been stuck on the last WC block for an hour?

Thanks for this info. I think it might be a good idea to update the difficulty section of the help page on the website, as of right now it suggests significantly higher levels of difficulty than what you gave here.

is something wrong with the pool?
first of all luck looks bad ? not sure about that
and also i notice that one of my pcs trying to solve previous block and not updating from stratum ? it does update but with a big lag

I have 20 GS grids each as one worker with your pool. Is there a place I can see shares submitted then instead of hash rate if it's not the most useful of number? If I increase my difficulty you're saying I'll see a hashrate closer reflecting what I see locally, but it sounds like that doesn't really matter, more of an appearance issue?

Hi!
@ipominer specially.

I am a noob...please do explain to me why profitability has plummeted and been stuck at .00767 Btc/Mh/Day ?
Is it because difficulty of WC has risen?
But the exchange rate has also risen QUITE A BIT @ 0.00001616 !?

SO why has profitability plummeted!!??

Please someone enlighten me!

Thanks a TON!

I've noticed that if I have my seeds clocked higher than 850, they look like they are running awesome on my end (no HW or anything), but the rate reported by the pool is always 2-3 Mh/s lower than what I'm seeing.

My assumption is that they actually aren't actually running that great, even at 855 I see this problem.  So I put them back to 850 and now what I'm seeing on my end, and what I'm seeing at the pool are just about the same (minor variance but nothing worth sweating over).

+1 i leave mine at 850 - very little variance, and completely stable at that frequency....

Anyone know how long WC will take to confirm?

@IPOminer can tell you exactly how the profitability is calculated, but if you check out your stats for WC (click the coin name in the profitability table, then change it to "your stats") you can see your avg hash rate and estimated coins per day. From that and the exchange rate for the coin you can work out your BTC/MH/day rate, which is basically how the site does it. The two variables are coins per day and exchange rate, and the main factor determining coins per day (your hash rate doesnt matter because its BTC per MH) is the difficulty. The "your stats" page for the coin also helpfully shows the difficulty graph, you'll see for WC its been increasing steadily as more and more people have been mining because the profitability is so good.

[ipominer]

Profitability ("btc/mh/day") is calculated from difficulty, block reward, and price. If any of those elements change, it changes. Of course the most commonly changing elements are difficulty and price.

0.00767 btc/mh/day is still MASSIVELY profitable in the current scrypt mining world, especially in comparison to what any pool other than ipoMiner has offered for more than a month. Check out http://poolpicker.eu/ for examples of profitability from the most common large multipools.

Look back a page or two.

Thanks for the response. I'm still seeing slower speeds reported by the pool. Is there another way to verify my gear is running efficiently with the pool besides hashrates? At 850mhz I'm seeing 26mh/s locally, but on the pool I see 19mh/s hashrate.

@TheFuneral If you want to get on IRC and chat that way it might be easier to discuss/troubleshoot -- we're on the Freenode IRC network, and our channel is ##ipominer

Cryptsy just added WhiteCoin -- sells have been going up to 2900 satoshis now. Great times on ipoMiner!

[Acrospore]

Okay, I just learnt my lesson. No more selling WC until the 10,000th block hits.
Honestly though a bird in the hand, blah blah blah.

i though the same...
so sold only half

i still get problems with the pool
seems like it is lagging on previous block not giving new work to c/s gminer

[Forexperiments]

daily payout doesn't work?

[goo38]

Looks like WC went past block 5000, we're half way complete before all the coins get mined.

[smfx_459]

good,I will continue to focus on it,Because I believe zhat there is a big space is waiting for it

[Ioqua]

Ipominer, A site I used to use called hash.so has a wonderful feature that by the touch of a button you could switch your workers to a different coin in their setup. Could something similar be setup here to switch between the auto switching and manual ports?
