Hoping a trusted dev could vet the Mac wallet. Has anyone been using it?
I'm in the process of getting my hands on a Mac to use ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I am for finding a way to open CureCoin folding rewards to members of ANY team. People need to understand, some of these teams are very old, very passionate, and very dedicated to their teams and about *volunteering* their *donations* to the fold at home project. Please understand that FAH has been going for 14 years. [H]ardOCP has been doing it since 2000. The EVGA team has been doing it for 7 years. We've been doing it for one week.
We're the bull in the china shop right now, and when you talk about recruiting from other teams, you're talking about destroying other teams that have had to work a thousand times harder than us to accomplish what they have accomplished. That's wrong, and believe it or not - it will drive people in the FAH community away, because we've killed it for them.
Now suppose the value of CureCoin does fall. Will you still be folding? Because that's what many of them are talking about when they talk about us. Cheating. Dropping units in the hunt for higher payouts. That we'll just move on to something else three months from now. The best thing about us, to them, is that we're introducing new people to the Folding@Home program that might just stick around after the tide of CureCoin miners leave.
The reactions to us haven't exactly been brilliant. They're floored, for sure, about the hash-power we've managed to drum up. But we're hurting the huge communities that have been built up by dividing them and forcing them to break ranks and join our team if they want to take part in our coin. If everyone joins our team, what's the point of having teams in the first place. Eh?
No. No recruiting from other teams. And until the devs find a way to include members from *any* team, I would encourage people in other teams to KEEP donating what they can afford to their teams, and to utilize the CureCoin program to facilitate their ability to donate more.

Maybe. If you put a massive amount of power on folding in the last day or so, it's quite possible that all that got recorded for the daily snapshot was enough points to earn you 2 coins. You'll make up the difference in the next payout, since it does a delta between "today" and "yesterday" to figure out your daily points. That's all assuming that you're folding for the right team (224497) with all your rigs/bots, and that the username you used on CryptoBullion matches what you use to fold.

Do you have 6 million points total or 6 million ppd (points per day). Those 2 are different things.. What is your username?

stratum+tcp://pool.terahashers.com:5008 -u <yourwalletaddress> -p <anypassword>
It really means something to me to participate in such a GOOD endeavor.
To the miners: Tell me if you have any problem with my pool so that I can improve it. The starting difficulty of the VARDIFF if '1024'. You you think it is too low for most sha256 mining equipment I can make it higher.
Thanks for the miner that joined with some serious hashing power ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Please let me know if you have any problem with my pool. I will try to please you as soon as possible! There is only one miner in this pool. Please join so that the hashing power is shared between pools.

any1 knows why i get this kind of error
3:36:30:ERROR:WU02:FS00:Exception: Could not get an assignment 23:40:23:WARNING:WU02:FS00:Failed to get assignment from '171.66.104.200:8080': Failed to connect to 171.66.104.200:8080: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.
Check your internet connection - evidently your computer failed to get the assignment from Stanford. evrything works well , the gpu's... but i can see i got a new ID in work queue from CPU, i just pause my CPU and the error stoped to.... strange, very strange interesting. - at least its fixed now though ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

The investor ipo is off putting IMO. It is just way too many coins given out for the amount of btc. I know there is no way to fix it now, but it is a big issue for me. Why not change the halfing to every year and increase the amount of coins distributed the first couple years. Currently at around 950000 points a day, it will take me nine months to get 10,000 coins, with this decreasing as the diff rises. I agree that initial investors should be able to reap some reward, but that is ridiculous. It was handled poorly and is the elephant in the room for this coin.

This may be off putting to you but what would be more off putting would be if the devs would have promised the initial investors an amount when they invested and then changed the agreement closer to launch after they had the investors BTC for the development stage. I think how it was handled is the correct way, even if it suits you and I both poorly. It was a great investment for those individuals, but wasn't it open to the public?

Also keep in mind the value of the IPO BTC, at least double what it's worth now, if the IPO was six months ago. ROI isn't quite so huge as it seems, if you take that into consideration. Also, just imagine the opportunity cost of having your BTC tied up in a project that took six months to get off the ground. Lots of great crypto investment opportunities have risen (and fallen) in that time period.

How many Curecoins could someone expect to get off mining with, say a 7950?

We did some calculations earlier in IRC, I'll repeat them here. If the team makes, say, 230M PPD tomorrow, and your 7950 gets 95K PPD, then you would get 0.04% of the 7488 CUR payout, which would be around 3 CUR. At an exchange price of 0.002, that's around $2.70.

Reading up on it more, though, I think it is a good idea.

I'm currently running my 7950 at around 110k PPD but I have $2.16 in electricity costs/day. Still I was doing folding@home before this for free so might as well continue ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) .

My electric is $1.20 or so per day so that means this should be a profitable project for me.

First give it some time to update. Second my first 2 concerns you have 5 280x are your OS and bottlenecking. To run the above without CPU bottlenecking you need at least a 6 core CPU. That and you need a Windows based OS, FAH isn't supported with AMD on Linux. Are all your other GPUs running and if so at what rate.

Can anyone here confirm lower power usage and heat with F@H as well? I was just reading through the docs. If anyone has like a 7950/7970 that they can compare it to (Scrypt vs F@H) that'd be awesome.

Over at http://curecoinfolding.com/ I did one for a Sapphire Toxic 280x, which is very similar to a 7970. Currently, my rigs run cooler when protein folding, with lower power consumption. I'll benchmark a 7950 and 7970 for you tomorrow.
