BTCD is no more

[IceColdTommy]

Here's my experience for those of you who may also be "small" BTCD miners.
Running 2x 60GH/s BFL miners
Sat on CryptoSkills for 2 days and got almost nothing. Plus I'm not thrilled with the tone of his communications here so decided to switch.

Tried some of the others I saw here:
mining.securepayment.cc
Pool Hashrate: 169.29 TH/s
Don't think I can pull my weight, never got any traction there.

btcd.poolto.be
Pool Hashrate 20,045.38 GH/s
Small pool. No fee. But the real problem for me was the efficiency for my miners. It never got above 50%. Way too many invalid shares.

btcd.pool.mn
Pool Hashrate: 193.67 TH/s
Bigger pool. 1% Fee
This was the one I stuck with.  For my miners at least this is working best.  YMMV.
My efficiency jumped from 50% to 94% here. Share rate and earnings are 6x higher.

No affiliated with any of these.. just a crypto noob trying to make may way.

It is very strange, i have less than 3% rejects on poolto be, less than 5 on pool mn so would say both good for me but i stick with poolto be as there are less miners so when we hit a blok i get more than 0.0some amount

Lin0spice, I have it on www.hasher.ca. I know you've used my pool lots in the past. Hop on over, would love to see you back again.

So how many days of POW left? I missed the boat mining but I got 120 coins very safe..I holding for dear life. What will happen after POW?

It's looking like Saturday morning.  The running theory is that there will be a price bump but not sure how high...

finally got a workaround that avoids the crash, so I could proceed to code and fix the tradematching, but it really annoys me to have such bug. I will try to isolate it some more, seems to be some sort of system conflict as it works on Mac, not linux.

when everybody expects something, the opposite usually happens.
my guess is that the miners are holding back on some coins and so unless there is magical big burst in buying, they will be forced to sell to pay for the 3+ petahash(!!). I sure am hoping for a pullback so I can get more BTCD.

You have 2 types of miners.

One who believe in the coin or the one who just dumps the coin to get his profit asap.

The ones who believe in the coin will not dump it if it doesn't get a big price jump in a few days.

The miners that want their profits asap are constantly dumping small amounts

I don't think we will see a big dump.

Think it will go to 40k +- then it will go up again

[twistelaar]

why is this coin rising??

[lin0sspice]

Before POS start always a real hype or a dip dump.
So we will see.

Think the small dump has already started

[slavo]

could you help us mine some more blocks on that pool : http://btcd.poolto.be ?

0% fees and perfect connection/payouts.

thanks  

*edit : there's a bug with cashout on poolto but i swear that he's a nice guy; he is sleeping atm and will resolve that as soon as he woke up (i just pm'd him)

(i'm mining most of the time on his pool since 1 year now and i never had any problem with hashrate or lost coins; that's why i'm promoting his work; sorry if i sound bad But nice and reliable guys are gold in cryptos so i'm fine helping him having some more fellow pool users. I'm even tempted to pay for an interface / server upgrade / rebranding because he deserve to earn something instead of nothing )

CHEERS

Base on the chart i want to see 40k floor
Before hype up strong.

I have watched the charts and i agree it will be hard to push down past 40k

pool owners have taken as many coins from me as i have mined i get ripped when the coin goes to moon alot
i guess thats part of the game but its a part i could do without ...

not saying because is gonna rob us  just saying ive seen things happen like this before and it often starts like this.

40 is coming.
