Topic: [ANN] BETARIGS.COM - Cryptocurrency cloud mining - thousands of rigs available! - page 60. (Read 200998 times)

What is this whole Dedicated Pool thing you are talking about. Im not sure if it was you, but I read something similar few weeks back. The language was very similar (criminals at dedicated pool, etc). What is that shit? Is there a link to that story if its too long?

I used Betarigs a couple of times now, it work all smoothly.

All is very clear and you don't have to be a tech kids to understand how it works.

Keep it up!

Some feedback :

This afternoon (here in FR) i made a mistake with my wallet & the rent amount has been rounded (Sorry tdenchev  ).
I opened a ticket and a few hours later, amount was refunded.

Great !

I also have a feature request, an API would be very useful :

- As owner of rig to adjust price & durations

- As renter to rent a rig when an opportunity is found.

I'm currently coding a bot which aim is to associate a "good" price per Mh/h with a list of coin, if i could automatically rent rigs when a good compromise is found, it would be really great

Evenutually someone will come along and crush Betarigs that knows how to put a site together and actually takes our feedback of how to make it better.  Mux would rather work with the criminals over at Dedicated Pools than to put real innovation into this site.

All these suggestions are needed

Betarigs needs to seriously take a look at its features and limitations and get their shit straight. Take a few tips from ebay. It will do wonders.  I moved my rigs out of here because of the absolute lack of control the rig owners have. Here are a few suggestions that I found myself making a mental note of while I was nearing the tipping point.

1. Give the option to give feedback to renters. Its a two way street.

2. Why is the feedback column limited to so few characters? If I am a renter and I'm dissatisfied with a rig owner, I need to have enough headroom to explain myself, post screenshots, etc and warn other renters of possible unresponsive owner or inflated speeds, etc. It cant be done in 8 words. I see no purpose of limiting the characters to such a low number.

3. Give the owners the option to filter their clients... like ebay auctions you can filter people to stop people from bidding on your item if they are below a certain rating, from a country you don't ship to etc. Similarly, Rig owners need to be able to automatically filter out buyers below a certain feedback or have an ignore list or something of the sort. Might even go so far as to block people without any prior rentals from renting theirs. Sure the rental frequency will drop, but give them that option.

4. There is a desperate need to have a transparent system of showing the average speed it is hashing at any time. For that you will need to revamp the outdated method its currently running on and have the owners be able to update their backup pools on the website. You will be able to monitor speeds the rig is currently hashing on, and potential renters can see if the speeds are matching the advertized rates or not. MiningRigRentals is a very good example of this feature. Leaserigs, not so much.

5. Wallets. Period.

6. Give the renter the option to put in backup pools. Pools are getting DDoSed and falling like flies, going into maintenance mode all the time. Not to mention coins forking, not syncing, pools recompiling from new source, etc. It is all too common these days. The last thing anyone wants is a renter who did not get his money's worth of hashing. Have atleast the option for four backup pools and encourage the fourth to be a different older secured coin. All pools of a newly launched coin will be down if it forks or screws up somewhere. Its always good to have a last resort safety coin to mine while you are paying for it.

7. Some 5 minutes before a rental is done (and if the owner has not set to maintenance mode, and enabled a certain feature in his settings), open up an option to book the next slot and have the buyers bid for the highest BTC/MH/day rate that are willing to pay (higher than the rate the owner put of course). This will ensure fair competition when these hyped coins launch and there's always rigs available for those willing to pay a premium and not those lucky enough to land the next time slot because they were able to click at the exact micro second the rig comes back online.

8. Why on earth are Rigs not deletable?

That's all for the rant this time. I hope some of these suggestions can be implemented some day. Thanks for listening 

 

+1 CUDAminer user waiting for Betarigs supporting it.

Already used the service as renter and worked perfectly.

 

how is possible a user to rent a rig so fast? it was 1 sec left until can rent and i refreshed the page and is already rented by another user and waiting for payment. is same user who rent all the rigs i want )
i wait 40 minutes for the rig and then this user is ultra-hyper fast.
he use a "hack" or what?
i ' m frustrated 

wow, this is the best idea

I tried this tactic. Wrote in support of and that's what they said to me:
Hello! issue seems to be solved. from our side everything was ok, you don't have to give him extra hours. the mistake was made by the renter.
Thanks for using Betarigs Service!
Cheers!

But it did not scare him. Vice versa. Set even lower rating and wrote me:
This is my pool information pool: mona1.monapool.com:6666 user: kevin777.1 Password: 4365 add my time and i will change the rating and praise you till the lord here's me lol

So I decided to leave this invention. And do not communicate with this scammer anymore!

Could I rent a rig to mine for vanity addresses?

I had such a guy too. As soon i told im i wont let me get scammed and that i informed the support/mux about it, he got scared. so scared that he no longer wanted free hours and didnt leave any rating at all.
just in case you want to try such tactics

They basically do that in-house already. Rig owner's don't get the BTC until 24 hours after the completion of the rental period, assuming there are no tickets or flags raised. That's already plenty of delay to sort any issues out in my opinion.

Opened a ticked for an underperforming rig. Ticket #936554. Please look into it before processing payments. Thanks

Be careful!

User kevin777 (or kevin777.2 , kevin77.1 and other) - scammer.

He rents rigs on three hours, gives a bad rating and then requires extra hours... or not fix your rating!

May i make a suggestion, It would be best if your system included some sort of escrow that would guarantee its customers would indeed receive the service they paid for.

Tried renting 5 rigs today. 3 of the 5 said it didnt confirm before the half hour, yet on the blockchain they are saying at least 2 confirms with one of them confirming 3 times. Does this happen this often. A real pain as that BTC is tied up with BEtarigs until they sort their shit out.

It's a little frustrating, but better than having to deal with mining and exchanging all of these coins myself. Also better than dealing with leaserigs, they have a ton of hoops to jump through, deposit required and they also want you to rent someone else's rig before you can put your own up. Beta is still in beta after all, I think they'll get the kinks worked out.

I am glad, and sad at the same time when i hear that there are others that experience the same problems as i do with miners doing failover. I know that betarig stratum is up but for me it sometime takes five minutes and sometimes one hour until it goes back to pool 0. I dont feel that happy to be forced to give my renters expensive compensation time when my workers are up but cant hash the way needed.

I really like Betarigs and their idea and i know that things probably will work better further along. But it would be really appreciated if theese problems could be solved quickly.

I've had some problems with betarigs today myself. I restarted my rig and after 5 minutes or so it switched back to the renter's pool. Second time it's happened today though, for a total of about 30 minutes. I added an extra hour for the renter to hopefully prevent a dispute down the road.
