When I purchased my most recent contract, I was attempting to buy two 10Mh/s contracts for 6 months, but I believe they have been combined into one worker. I believe this happened since my 3rd worker has an average of double the hashing rate as the first two workers/contracts I set up. Is this something I should worry about? I have 4 workers listed on my account but the 4th is 'inactive' and my OCD doesn't like that Wink

Also, should each contract be linked to an individual worker set up on the pool's website? I believe I read something along those lines on the website.

You would have to contact the support guys on this one Ill dig around and see what I can find out, or just buy a second contract myself. I owe you an answer for this.

As for setting the difficulty on a mining pool, I know it is dependent on your current hash rate, but with mine having a relatively wide range of fluctuation, I don't know what to set it to in order to get the best bang for my buck. I have been setting it to 64 as most pools mention over time that is the best value for all miners.

I use 64 so far so good.

Lastly, does a scrypt miner handle scrypt-n and jane?

No but there will be options for these in the future

So whatever happened to the $5k?

Also do you have a list of known working external pools? I'm seeing some widely varied results.

bump..

$5k probably went to Zhenya's $300k salary lol

But props to the Mintsy team the platform is looking good.

Also external pool redirections are probably being done via stratum's extranonce.subscription, this can be tricky if not implemented well.

I have gotten as much as 60 bonus MH/s with Mintsy.co off of 4 contracts for 10Mh/s each. Pretty amazing. Kinda sucks when it goes the opposite way like right now and only pulling about 6Mh/s per contract. There are a couple questions I have been meaning to e-mail but might as well fire em off here.

I have been mining the BTC Pool for 36 days now and to be honest, I am disappointed because despite contracts, the network doesn't solve enough blocks to get payouts. An example is this: In the last 2 weeks, there has been one solved block for one payout. Since I began 36 days ago, there has been a total of 13 payouts. While I do know this is beta, it does not seem to me that the contract is worth it. Now, I will tell you that they guarantee a refund on hashrate they missed, but that does little good if the network delivers on hashrate but cannot solve blocks. I am on pace to make $8.80 on a contract that cost $59.00.

You can mine external pools with more hashrate.

Not with a contract.

Yes you can mine external pools with a contract. Just setup the external pool and point your contract work at that pool. I am mining multipool as we speak.

Also I've got 33 hours worth of "pending" credits from rental income from one of our rigs. Can you tell me how long before we get paid?

There are no FAQ on site. FAQ is very important.
I have a question.
I bought contract 2 days ago, but I have no payouts (I have worker and pools).
While process of buying I read something about 5 days delay but don't remember exact what.
Could you describe payouts rules?

We have a full FAQ being draft and each page has a help popup associated. I have to dig into the contracts a bit it took mine a day to start working... Remember its still really early beta so expect some goofiness. I will get you the payout info soon and post it here.

It's looking good, are there any plans to add a mintsy multipool and/or get auto paid in any currency? If not, maybe there could be a way to add an external pool that is multi-algo.

Multipool coming soon and likely to the any currency.

As an enterprise miner I have the utmost confidence in digitalBTC they've been making lots a of smart moves since their inception. The Cryptsy team too, their exchange operations from verification to trading have been spot on for me.

But. I simply can't stand a typical sales/marketing ploy that involves advertising 6-10 months in advance, offering a cash price with no signs of payment and then dropping hints about beta tests when it all still seems very private, closed and probably still along way away.

It's nice to have read about the BetaRigs participation recently and I'm sure in the end Mintsy.co will be a great platform- provided the users don't accidently type .com every time. Tongue

Can you provide us any more information?

Is the preregistration already closed? Do not really see a way to register for beta.
