but mining ixcoin is still more profitable than mining bitcoin - exchange price 0.0060 is higher than difficulty price = 16384/1890000*50/96 = 0.0045
Yep! My calculations are based on what the price should look like with an "instant" difficulty calculation as opposed to actual difficulty. As with NMC it's more profitable to mine right now because the difficulty is "incorrectly low" relative to actual interest in the currency. Instantaneous difficulty calculations are basically just a measure of interest and interest drives the price. Difficulty and price are both driven by the same underlying force: how many people are interested in this currency? Difficulty lags price because price change in realtime while difficulty only changes every 2k blocks or so. The more interest, the higher the difficulty AND the higher the price.
Shouldnt the client have rejected the bitcoin address ? and where were the coins sent ? And can they be recovered ?
