Nice one, nonnakip!

It's such a pleasure to see people behaving decently and honestly in this Bitcoin world.

Thank you.

Hello Bitcoin Mining Enthusiasts,

It has not been very long since our last newsletter, but we are certain that ‘bothering’ you with the news that we have reached tape out of the GoldStrike1™ ASIC chip is something you will forgive.

The tape out means that the GoldStrike1 chip now is well under way to production and the last piece of our TerraMiner puzzle is now in place.

You can read the official press release regarding the tape out here.

Aside from the news of the tape out we will also be launching our CoinTerra Forums to the public in the next few days. The forums will be a place where the Bitcoin community, Bitcoin miners and CoinTerra customers can ask questions, post ideas and take part in discussions on everything Bitcoin related.

As always, you can reach us with any questions or comments at info@cointerra.com or 512-270-6050.

Best Regards,

CoinTerra Team

Happy Friday to us! First I wake up and see BTC is just about to cross over the $350 mark (GOX) and now this!  Later today donations!  It's good to be alive!

Thanks OGNasty and Nonnakip!

The first donation from our 1g coin sales has been made to NastyFans.  3.37 BTC for 337 coin sales.  I've lowered pricing of these coins and the donation amount going forward due to a high BTC rate.

What's going on with the hashrate?

According to the charts on your p2pool node, the past week day looks kinda "not right"


Edited: oops, I was looking at the "day" chart and thought it was the week one

(... and fixed some bad grammar)

The logs show many network connection errors last day. I now restart p2pool software in case python/application in strange state.

nonnakip, check your pm re:p2pool settings

Thank you for your PM. It is correct that NastyPool charges no fees. We are using alt-coin profits from merged mining to support P2Pool development and pay server costs and donate to nastyfans. I work on nastyfans web interface to report these data.

Very cool. We should promote this more widely (like on the mining pool list?). A lot of people would like a nice 0% pool.

I really don't understand why the share of this are still dropping so rapidly. Weird considering I bought my first shares for 4BTC back in the day but I guess people oly see how many btc they get out.

I agree.  I've tried to promote it, but 1) the interface isn't ready yet & 2) I'm obviously far from a good promoter.  I have a feeling once the nastyfans pool interface is ready, nonnakip's hard work will be the best promotion.  In the meantime, join us in the pool and help spread the word!  There are only 4 or 5 fans currently mining on the pool.  I know our club member count is above 100 so we're getting a pretty poor participation rate.  I say if you are reading this, switch to our pool and give it a shot!

I think it is mostly due to the BitFunder & BTCT closings (aside from dwindling BTC distributions).  There were funds that held several hundred seats that are still trying to dump them.  Add in the panic of people who just got burned on BitFunder & BTCT and you have a mad rush for the exits.  The timing isn't so bad, because once the pool's interface is ready, our silver physical seat coins are ready, & we have our next generation of miners, I have a feeling this could be an attractive entry point that could open the club up to new fans.

Awesome.

Well I sold you my miner...But if I see any good deals quieter ones I'll surely point it there!

I think it had a fee for a while of 3%, no?

It was at 3% before the server upgrade and implementation of merged mining.  Now it is 0%.

I totally forgot you had a public node ... I don't know if I'm doing something wrong but I can't get any of my Mining clients to point to your url and work.

It's working.  Are you sure you are pointing them at nastyfans.org:9332 ?

[Zillions]

Yes I currently have BTCguild and slush working fine with BFGminer in "Load balanced" tried adding yours but keeps saying pool is dead.
