*** Make absolutely sure you use the correct Bitcoin address, currently payments are automatically sent as each block is split up.***


We are currently implementing a system that will allow for user control of payments as well as automatic payouts at set thresholds.
What happens if no payout address is specified?

By the way, the 3.5 BTC bonus for the finder of the first block comes out of my pocket, not out of the block rewards.
If I am the finder of the first block, the bonus will get bumped over to the second block.


So basically it's the first block found by our users, If it happens to be me that finds it we will roll the bonus over.

Thanks guys!

I just tested the signup form, had no problems signing up.

Maybe try a different browser?


what browser are you using?

It probably would help if you didnt close the signup page when users type in the "@" character for email during registration.

Right now whenver I type my email and get to "@" it closes registration page and asks me to login lol

Interesting... That form is just a simple HTML form. Nothing fancy about it. The only "fancy" thing about it is you have to click the button to make it submit. Pressing enter, or any other key, doesn't trigger anything. Do you by chance have an add-on that might be getting in the way?

And just keep in mind everyone, I am working on a very much improved code base for the pool. We will have many new features implemented very soon, and it will improve the way the site works immensely.

We are testing our new pool out while we implement exciting new features.

During our entire public beta period we will be running with no fees.

http://bitfarms.ca is currently under active development and testing!

You can come mine with us for no fee at the moment and check out our exciting new features as we add them.

Right now we are running a straight proportional payout method, but we will be implementing new options in the coming days.

If you would like to join us feel free to sign up, we will be implementing new features everyday for the next few weeks.

If you have any suggestions or comments, come join us on irc.freenode.net in #bitfarms


Currently we are running around 3Ghash/sec and are hoping to see our first block soon! Come give us a hand!

Features:
Long Polling.
AJAX share counters. (update automatically)
Proportional Payout.
Friendly Dev/Staff team.
No fees while under development/public beta.
Willing to listen to, and implement some of our client's ideas if we feel they would be appropriate.
Canadian Based.
Periodic bonus rounds.

How to get started:

First sign up at the site, once you have done that you will be able to create workers for your miners.
Usually it is best to create one worker for each miner you wish to connect to the pool, it is much better this way for stats tracking purposes.
Once you have created your workers, you can point your miners to: pool.bitfarms.ca port 8332 or http://pool.bitfarms.ca:8332 depending on your miner version.
You can use any of the current miner software available

If you have not mined before or are new to mining and using windows, the easiest way to get started is to download the latest version of GUIMiner
and use that.


Hope to see you all mining with us soon!

Feel free to contact me if you need helping getting started at our mining pool!
