Also, its in the Google store with no problems.
Maybe, I dunno, try the app before smearing it?
I didn't even try to bring it down, so please shut up. You are spreading more bullshit, then I do. OP and I are already done talking.
Also, Google doesn't scan it apps. It depends on the reports of users. You should know that.

I dont know or really care whats going on here....lol all i know is i am the only krichwins..... Good to be famous 😄 or at least im the original. All others are imposters....lol. Bitcoininformation u are to much of a computer whiz to be me.... U obviously know more then I
Of course I am not you. It was just trying to make a point and randomly picked someone from the OpenEx.pw staff list (which was you) to do so. The point that I was trying to make was that it is easy to say one is a know / famous person.

@milly6, have fun calling FUD on me. I am just trying to protect the community byasking the necessary questions. If I didn't ask how we could trust OP, then someone else would. Would you call FUD on that person too? Makes no sense man. Also 10 points for the posting that picture. Highly mature.

Like I said before, I wish OP all the best of luck and that he may earn a fair buck from his work.


Nope, you are just blowing this out of porportion and focusing quite a bit on it... I suggest you do a virus scan or analyze the actual program in one way or another before you try to cause hysteria.. Thats all. Fud= Fear, uncertainty and doubt for no particular reason.

Alright, sounds good to me..... Sometimes translation can get lost in words....i understand and get it!!!
Crypto is still new.... Nothing wrong with what u are doing for the community? Healthy debate is good!!!
I like everyone i come in contact with and wish i could endorse everyone.. I dont know anything really about anyone... Other then what is told to me and what i read in chat....I like to tell everyone to always use cation and to play it safe.. Dont risk more then u are willing to lose... Be careful with your personal information..
Blah blah blah matt seems to me like a hard working kid and if i had the need for his product i may even try it... But in no way am i endorsing anyone or anything i cant say that i personally know anyone in this commuity like that except maybe the very few hand picked personal friends ive invted to this community with me.....

Have a great day everyone and win win win

Stating to whom you talk, doesn't increase the trust I have towards you. I mean I could state that I had a huge conversation with theymos (I did talk to him once, but that is a different subject for a different time). Also, the openex.pw one doesn't proof anything to me. Because, I am Krichwins, but I don't use that name here (I hope you get the point of me saying that). I want to believe that you won't steal wallets, but, you know, trust is hard to find these days.

ou earn a fair buck from it Wink

always the student, never the master.
I vouch for Matt, and so will Dia and Mullick and many others. Also, that is not the real Krichwins, its an impostor.

And how can we, as a community, know for sure that you won't steal wallets or something like that?

I can read, thanks.

so take it up with him in pm, or get the app and check it. Why just blatantly accuse him of trying to steal wallets?
Can't you read?

Just to be clear, I don't say that you are a scammer nor that you won't scam. I just want people to be cautious, because that is needed these days. I do wish you good luck with your program and I hope that you earn a fair buck from it Wink
I didn't accuse him of anything nor was that my intention.

What is all this. How is he stealing a wallet with an app that controls cgminer. If you're worried about that kind of penetration, then any app could be stealing your data, and you aren't being careful enough.
Stealing a wallet isn't that hard to add inside your code. He only needs wireless permission to send it to itself and he needs that anyway. And yes, I know that any app could steal my data, that is why I always check an app if I don't trust it. Reverse engineer is awesome to do.

Well, I'd post the source however I would no longer have the ability to charge for the app which I plan to use to make a living on. I'm not so good at trading so I create services and products like this in order to survive. I'm fairly well known with quite a few of the high ups at Cryptsy, Vern (Chatted with him a a few times on skype about Cryptsy's api), Bit John, Mullick, Pr9me, I've worked on openex.pw (https://openex.pw/index.php?page=about, name is listed there). (I go by MattSmith most of the time.) I don't want to come across as a bad person, I'm trying to earn an honest living. Stealing wallets will not happen, I won't lose my credibility with the people I've come to gain trust from for something so silly and something that won't last.

I just picked someone from the staff list to get my point across). I want to believe that you won't steal wallets, but, you know, trust is hard to find these days.

"Knowing" OP for quite some time now in the community, I can say that'll never happen.  He's not some troll looking for a quick buck like many of those out there.

Also, if that ever were to happen Matt would be banned from selling in the android store so why risk it?
That doesn't say anything. TF was well known and trusted by many many people, but he still stole shitloads of BTC. He didn't look like a troll nor a scammer. See my point? Getting banned on the Google Play Store isn't a big problem if you ask me. You simply create a new account, pay 5 bucks and you can continue with the scam (which will earn you a lot more than those 5 bucks).

Just to be clear, I don't say that you are a scammer nor that you won't scam. I just want people to be cautious, because that is needed these days. I do wish you good luck with your program and I hope that you earn a fair buck from it Wink

Ok, that makes more sense, but how well can it handle dozens of different computers, restarts, errors, etc.
Most I've personally added to it is 2 rigs and 12 pools. Handled it just fine, as you'd expect you need the bandwidth to handle the more rigs however dozens of cgminer instances added should work just fine. I don't currently have the ability to add many different instances myself, which is one of the reasons why I've released it so early in development. I need to see how it handles these different use-cases and I expect someone out there is willing to risk $3 if they have that many rigs where they will make that back very quickly mining.

Where is the stratum proxy stored? Your servers?   I'm confused. You can change the settings on a proxy from the app, but the phone can't be the proxy itself.

Also, I've got iStuff, so I'll be waiting for now. It would be really convenient to have a nice interface for a stratum proxy.

Ah, I must have made the OP confusing, not a great language guy even though its ironic being a programmer.. anyways

There is no stratum proxy, the app connects to all your cgminer instances and moves them all independently. I was using a stratum proxy before I made the app, and it was a hassle.


Also, my day phone is an iPhone, so Im trying to get it on there asap. Its a bit pricier than google play store and I don't have an iOS machine myself so I have to borrow something from a buddy until I can afford to buy a machine myself. I'll figure it out Smiley

Interesting app, but I don't really like your choice of colour.  Tongue
Lol, to be honest, me neither. Was thrown together, still working on it! I plan to make it a lot sleeker.

CGMiner Monitor App



General Information
To check on my miners I've always had to visit the pool I'm connected too to make sure I'm hashing. It was annoying, especially when I'm not home. And to move my rigs between pools I had to be at home at my desk, connect to my stratum proxy pc and close the stratum proxy I had open then launch a separate batch to move them all.

I knew cgminer had an api, so I looked into it and this app is the result of that. I now no longer need a stratum proxy at all, and I can control my rigs from anywhere in the world I have 3g or 4g connection or wifi!

The app allows you to add miners and pools to a locally saved database. Once added you can move the miners independently to pools, or from the pools screen, you can move all your miners at once to a pool. Also, the app will display each miners current hashing rate.  

App Development Status
The app is currently in early alpha! There are lots of bugs, and still a TON of features I'd like to add! Currently it is at its bare minimum state of development. I wanted to get the app out in this early stage so that I can use YOUR INPUT on how I should continue development. What features I should add, how I should rework what I've already gotten written. I am looking for all of your good and bad words of advice for the app! Please however, don't rate the app low on the store listings while still in an alpha release.

The app has only been tested with cgminer version 3.2, as demand grows for other miners I will test and make sure it works on different platforms. Please post your miner information if it isn't working, theoretically the app works with bfminer as well.


App Publish Status
Currently I've only released the app on the android market as I don't (yet) have access to an iOS machine to build for the apple app store. Also, I'm using the android user base to further expand the works of the app.

Currently the cost of the app is $3, once released non-beta version the price will be $4 on both store listings.
NEW PRICE SET AT JUST $.99!


Store Listings
CGMiner Monitor - Android - PUBLISHED VERSION: 1.0.1
CGMiner Monitor - iPhone(Coming Soon)


This app is a work in progress and I will much appreciate the early support! I'm looking for all feedback, good and bad, to be posted in this thread so I can improve the quality of this product!
