The truth is Dwarfpool has been a lot more stable than any of the other pools in my experience. If the other pools can keep the same uptime and offer similar features as Dwarf, then you might see more people spread out. Also I thought the risk of any kind of 51% attack was mitigated by POS? They would require a significant amount of the available coins (stake weight) in addition to controlling 51% of the network. Am I wrong?
I don't think only Dwarfpool has been "a lot more stable". I have used MiningPoolHub since several months ago, and never experienced any significant downtime or communication issues at all. Also other pools managed them quite well except the period of that pos bug and forking issue, but it was not their fault. Dwarf's no registration "feature" seems good, but other pool's registration also has some advantages too. I am monitoring all pools' status every 2 min now. I will post it on jpcpal.com soon. Luckily JackpotCoin is pow/pos hybrid, so it may be less risky to have 51% control either on PoW or PoS, but it does not justify that we can ignore it. For better stability and security, it is always better to distribute hash power. |

POS blocks are not always found between POW blocks. Consider the consecutive series of blocks 571032, 571033, and 571034. All three were found a few seconds apart and by the same address (dwarfpool's JdaWQx5PCseQUB96FUZ4vALkfPYFUzVG6U). That event 10 minutes ago all by itself is already flirting with the possibility of a fork. Looks like miners who care about the coin should be aware of this. |

The reason why coinwarz didnt add us cause our "Algorithm" so different from the others I dont know if the took the easy way out, or if ViaCoin bought 2000 votes with a BTC. If they did purchase votes, it would have to have been in the last hour of voting. There are about 20 algos now in use for mined coins, and another few for coins that cannot be mined. CoinWars only shows profitabllity for 8. They need to get on the stick and add many other algos if they want to remain relevant: |

GOSH..... that makes me feel good. I have been voting for three weeks now, about 10-14 votes a day and posting here asking you guys to vote as well.
It was a great effort, and hopefully it will generate some buying interest in the coin.

Coinwarz seems to need to have better data. On the their algo comparison setting, the default hash power for X11 is 9000 KH /sec while for Jackpotcoin, it is only 3000 kH/sec. This is completely inaccurate. For AMD R9 series, JackpotCoin generates about 10% more hash power than X11. For 750ti, Jackpot does a lot more. |

I just went there and it defaulted to 9k for x11 and 14k for JHA, but they don't have jpc listed anywhere in the results or coin list yet. |

Off topic a little.
Bter exchange was hacked for 45million NXT and 112BTC. All hell has broken loose in the past few hours there as the herd mentality took over and a massive SELL ALL COINS AT ANY COST attitude took over the account holders.
Bter even paid the hacker 100BTC more to return the NXT. He failed to return the NXT. More panic selling........
Then cooler heads prevailed with the NXT devs, who agreed to erase the transaction from the blockchain. This was not a rollback, but an erasure of one transaction, requiring a download of the new editted blockchain by all NXT wallets.

Probably they will have hard time to find out the total net hash which is very important to calculate the profitability estimate. Also they need to plug in 10% reward reduction every week, and jackpot reward etc.. I don't think they can make an accurate estimate without api support from our community. |
