How many pools are down or otherwise not working?

[Galane]

Coinex pools have been out of action for the past 4 days or longer, no blocks found yet people are still mining there.

Mine DOGE? Not at Shibepool!

Looking for a hot place to mine CTM? ctm.coinpool.de was very good for me, for a day. Then nada the past couple of days and my withdrawal is going nowhere.

Cryptocurrency had better get some stability Real Soon Now or it's going to go down like the Dutch Tulip Market in 1637. Or perhaps the Golgafrinchans adopting the leaf as their currency, then burning down the forests to fight inflation.

I'm fed up with getting caught in the fires and having nothing to show for all the time I've put on my hardware mining.

I got into mining as a bit of a lark (after reading about how DOGE sent the Jamaican bobsled team to the Olympics), to see if I could accumulate One Bitcoin, likely could have had it by now if every #W%#@% pool I've mined at hadn't turned to a pool of quicksand.

So far I've mined and traded my way to 0.00910057 BTC, which is stuck at Coinex. I was mining CTM, trading to LTC then BTC. Their minimum for withdrawals is 0.01... almost there but currently no block finding, no trading and no withdrawals even if above the minimum. Looking like Coinex is going to be a longer drawn out exchange failure.

As long as there is electricity and internet, suprnova pools are up an running

scryptguild has been up and running fine

So is poolwarz and multipool.us I'd imagine.

Looks like multipool.us is stuck long term on BTC, haven't found a command line for setting up to just mine on their SHA256 pool, and nothing with using BFGminer. That's what works best on the two block erupters and one antminer u2 I have.

Poolwarz says "all" the coins, but they don't have CTM. I like CTM because on a good pool I can get a lot quickly, doesn't feel like a *complete* waste of time...
