[ANN] NXTMultiPool - hashrate.org

[FreeSocrates!]

Just switched some miners over... can't wait to see how it does. 

[punkrock]

Update on yesterdays mining on hashrate.org:
I got 517 Nxt in 20h or 620 Nxt per day. At current prices (BTER,
NXT/BTC= 0.0000725) this equals 0.045 BTC.
Profitability:
hashrate.org  0.00694 BTC/MH per day
comparing with other multipools:
clevermining: 0.00549 BTC/MH per day
wafflepool:   0.00482 BTC/MH per day

After 2.5 days of mining rejected share ratio is 0.25%. No shares were
submitted to the backup pool, meaning that hashrate.org was up and
running the whole time.

[paradigmflux]

SHA256 round stats and hash rates have been added to the site.
The first payout to the SHA256 miners will be tonight, as they got their first blocks finally.
Over 70 MH currently and over 700 GH of SHA mining power.

Also, today the pool has more than made up for it's poor luck over the last couple days (yet still paying out more than other multipools!) - today the pool has had a few incredibly lucky streaks.

When do you plan to do exchange/payout automatically? You can't do that manually forever, right? Also it would be nice to know what we mine at the moment.
So far good job.

[paradigmflux]

Hey!  I already have most of the exchanging stuff automated, mostly the manually intensive pay of the payouts is just the posting he HTML table and then sending out the actual outgoing TXNs.
I am working on getting the NXT transactions to go automatically (there isn't a traditional <coin>d daemon with NXT) and should have that identified fairly soon.
I am also talking to two web developers about getting their assistance in getting a better page working that would include predis (to be able to report directly on the back end Redis instance)
I should hopefully be able to update further tomorrow on the status of that.

By the way, i'll be starting today's payouts at 5PM PST.  Today so far is looking like it should pay out much better than the last two days (we're mining coins with variable block rewards and the last couple days we have been generally unlucky whereas today we have been quite fortunate).

Today will be the first payout to the SHA256 miners, too!

Thank you to everyone who is mining with me, thank you all for tolerating the terrible website and reporting deficiencies.

[paradigmflux]

Today's payments have all gone out with the exception of 3192160192846930517.

I am waiting on a poloniex withdraw so that I can send you the nearly 600 NXT I owe you still, 3192160192846930517

Everyone else, check the site for the info! Over 6000 NXT earned by you all today!

I just moved my BFL Jalapeno to hashrate.org sha-256, but I have a 70% reject rate.
Is that normal?

[dodododi]

I put all 1400 kilohash on this pool to see how it would work. So far I am quite impressed.  It is a novel idea and I wish you luck. I love the rate of innovation in the crypto coin world. Thanks for your hard work.

[rramires]

I believe it is the same error, put the "ASICMiner Block Erupter" to help test:

In other pools does not happen only in hashrate.org

[paradigmflux]

Hey all,

I have heard that BFGMiner has issues with duplicate ntime values.  I am looking into that, if you could try using cgminer in the meantime that would be great.  I did implement what might be a fix tonight, so please let me know if it's still happening for you.

The entire site is also undergoing a massive facelift to include some reporting and stuff, tomorrow may be a manual payout one last time but after that things should all be automatic.
Check the main page for the link to check out what v2.0 is going to look like!

ATTN MINERS
please if you are mining the SHA-256 port

Please verify that you are using this address:
stratum+tcp://hashrate.org:5008

There are several miners that are hammering the port with getwork requests causing trouble for everyone.
You need to have the stratum+tcp at the start of the address please.

[NxtSwag]

Sorted mine. Im sure it said http://hashrate.org:5008. Oh it still does on your 2.0 site. Top stuff keep up the good work

[pandaisftw]

Hi pf,

I'm not entirely sure if it's my hardware or not, but recently (in the last ~24 hours) I have been getting a *ton* of freezes, then a ton of invalid nonces. From what I have heard, this is common from multipools when they switch coins. However, this is literally happening almost every 2-5 minutes and reduces my hash rate to almost half of the norm at times. Is there any way to avoid this?

Pandaisftw

PS: Love the new site look!

[paradigmflux]

hey all.

Sorry, I was restarting the stratum proxy a few times tonight as I worked on a few things.
I only got half of today's payouts out today - i will send the rest early tomorow morning.
I'd buy as much NXT as possible in the next 24 hours because tomorrow NXT is going to the moon.

ps, V2.0 of the site is up.
PS, SHA256 miners - please make sure you're not using getwork
mine with stratum+tcp://hashrate.org:5008 for SHA256 mining - i know that the page previously had the wrong address up, I apologize for that.

[Gxname]

which diff is better for 2.8Mh/s rig?

stratum+tcp://hashrate.org:3008 (for vardiff)
or
stratum+tcp://hashrate.org:3032 (for fixed difficulty 32 shares)

Hey Guys!

 I am seriously impressed by this procect paradigmflux has put together there and I want to participate.

My issue is a lack of time. I have two options: Install an old setup from parts I have, mainboard, cpu, two NVIDIA 7900GTO,

or go to www.betarigs.com/faq or to leaserigs or so.

Can you throw out some numbers regarding hashing power? I know there is a litecoin wiki that gives an overview over GPUs,

but maybe one of you can bounce some numbers, esp. in connection with leasing ascis to contribute to the pool!

Great Project, let's finance Nxt with the PoWs!

Best,
l8orre

ps: when it says on the project page 80 Miners and 832002011 KH/s that there are in fact 832002.011MegaHash/s = 832.002011GigaHash/s in the pool from the 80 miners?
- the nomenclature is a bit dense, I would actually expect a 'k' for kilo, not a 'K', and anyway those numbers look a bit high to me ...

Hey all

I have been hard at work getting some of the automated payments working properly.  I question whether it will be technically possible to ever fully automate this thing, when the exchanges are taking up to 24 hours to process withdrawals.

I am waiting on a just over 6800 withdrawal from BTER to go through to do more manual payouts, that payout period will cover everything through up until this morning at about 6:30 AM PST.
SHA miners will also have the same.

On the bright side, i have automated the calculations of the payouts.  Again, I question if it's technically possible to be able to script actually sending the txns what with the huge lag time on the exchanges and the rapid rate at which the NXT exchange fluctuates.  I am still working on that some more.
By the way, the stats page should show you the coins unexchanged, coins exchanged and coins unconfirmed statistics sometime today (I am just working on that stuff in a dev environment)

Hashrates are also on the pool stats page again (scroll down) - they update every 10 minutes.

[paradigmflux]

Over 10,000 NXT are stuck in withdrawal on BTER currently.
Payouts will be going out as soon as the amounts get recieved by the pool.
Further reporting will be available on the site later tonight (including historical and current payout information)


Given the poor performance of the exchanges I think it would be a good idea for the pool to try and keep enough coins available for it to borrow for up to a full day or two worth of payouts... Any original NXT investors around?  Obviously the pool can pay back once BTER fixes whatever is jamming up the withdrawals.

Does Bter.com respond to communication on contact channels given on English version of their site?

Few months ago, I personally found out that they communicate and respond promptly only via contacts given on the Chinese version of their site (click on the PRC flag in the upper right part of bter.com to get it). I had to use QQ IM (it has English-Chinese translation built-in) software to communicate with them in Beijing morning time. You could also try to contact them with other means listed at https://bter.com/news/contacts (visible only when the language is set to Chinese) in case English contact channels don't work out.
