i have over 72 GPUs sitting idle, i would love to use it for folding and earn FLDC, but running those GPUs isn't that cheap, so whats the purpose of FLDC if it doesn't have value, we can't sell it to btc so i can't pay for electricity costs, and holding FLDC doesn't even earn dividend payment

it would be great if folding or any scienitific calculation process is profitable, researcher should pay miner for their computing power so if researcher earn financial benefit from their research they should pay dividend to miners
We would love to have you as part of the team, that would be a great increase in our credits per day Smiley I understand that it costs electricity, we are currently working hard to make an economy around FoldingCoin. Currently we are advocating its use as a Meetup.com currency and it is going pretty well. We also are working on making this an in game currency for video games. The benifit there is when folders are not playing their video games, they could be earning tokens for their game while they are not playing. This is a work in progress though. Many cryptocoins do not have value in their early stages, and many of them never get the volume, but you can sell them at https://masterxchange.com/market.php?currency=xcpfldc

actually too profitable at the moment. (not big volume but still)
I made today almost 30k FLDC with 2 * 280X
there is (at the time of writing) a buy order in masterxchange for 57 satoshis.
its more than 0.016 BTC in one day...

so very profitable for a relatively small miner like me

Here's an easy guide to get started if you have no Counterwallet and never folded before.

FAH just finished doing its maintenance on the WU uploading and credits are once again uploading to the FAH server. Hopefully this fixed all the credit issues that have been going on.

Just received more notifications from stanford directly, they are still having issues and hopefully will be resolved soon. Some teams are suffering bad while others are actually skyrocketing

Thank you FBSoulMan. I'm happy to contribute. The team is ranked 174 according to http://fah-web2.stanford.edu/teamstats/team226728.html.

How does that compare to some point in the past? Any idea how that compares to folks who are folding for FLDC but aren't in the team?

When I started 2 months ago, the team was at 387....so that should give you and Idea how fast we are accelerating, this past week has hurt us with all the complications that have been going on with F@H.

Some are suffering more than others, I think the teams that based on CPU folders are fine, not much credit variance, but the teams that are designed around GPU folders seem to be tanking HARD!

Yup, mostly. Reason: CPU still include the BA-style of WU which were not that much impacted. Main issue was that for GPU based system the assignment server handed out lots "old" core 15 (nV) and core 16 (AMD) instead of the desired core 17 and 18. People  don't like those because no quick return bonus and less PPD.

Plus the modern cards/driver seems to have trouble with the older cores. As a rough summary.

Patience ... And as soon we fold away all old cores they will not come back.

Did anybody elses 750ti take a dump in the last 24 hours and error out or is it just mine?

First off, sorry to everyone about me being a ghost for the past 2 days, work got in the way big time!

And Cristian- That sounds like it would be correct, as we are still getting old WU. Do you by chance have alink you can share about this as I have been pulling out my hair trying to find something

I have been researching the credit issue a lot and i am very confused. If you look at the teams that have been at the top like FLDC, EVGA, Curecoin, Russia, our points are absolutely plummeting.

The guys at Stanford told me everything should be back to normal soon but im not sure it will fix itself. Im going to pull apart my operation tonight and figure out whats going on.

Please everyone post here with thoughts/solutions here http://letstalkbitcoin.com/forum/post/folding-points-variance, this thread is important right now Smiley

Also sorry havent been as active, work has been slammed these past two days. I will respond to all posts tonight and pay all bounties

imagine if all GPU miners will fold..... could we find a cure quick ?
get a cure quick scheme Smiley

It would help, but keep in mind FAH mainly focus on basic research. Bringing a drug to market and patients takes much more after the basic research.

That said: keep folding !

is it possible to download a few WUs in advance and to have a big queue ?
I want to shut down my Internet today and don't want folding to stop.

i want to find the cure already !!

Not possible to queue WU, at least I don't know a supported / standard way

I'm also getting a lot of 16 WUs... Maybe they have some problem with network?
Any updates with exchange?

Thanks for joinging to all the newcomers!

I think the new server just needs a day or two to get all the new assignments worked out. I will be watching closely today and make sure that we are rising on the list again. Its wierd, because most teams have lost 30-50% production (we are sitting at 40%) but a few teams have seen a double in their credits, not many teams though. I am looking into this, but does anyone have thoughts as to why this is? I know I am still receiving A LOT of core 16 WU

980... i need to update my birthday wish-list  Grin

for linux i need NVidia ... ?
maybe its time to get upgraded Smiley

nV and Ubuntu is what I have running with two GTX 780, happy camper. Would be more happy with two GTX 980  Grin

I don't follow AMD news too much but I think they meanwhile also run under linux for folding; others might can confirm.

because of mining useless bitcoin clones i forgot how fun it is to fold
and foldingcoin is smart in a way. using counterparty which is 'ridding' on the most secure blockchain in existence ...
