To IPO Admin:

Hello, I have been using IPO for about 7 weeks and would now like to try and get more coins other than ECC (which I have by far the most of) I would like to hedge my bets a little more. I would like to gamble my mining time a little more and bet that (at the very least) one other coin, other than ECC will be as profitable or more Profitable. So.... Could you please, pretty please, with sugar on top: Publish the Ports for Direct mining of a single coin. I already have the direct port for ECC, but I have noticed that at least KARMA & SURGE is being Direct Mined by some people. At the very least could you publish the Direct ports for those you are allowing to be Directly mined in the one post.
I think IPO is a wonderful idea, and has great administration. However my only complaint is that it often spends way more time than I like on one coin. I think we would find this especially tru for many new users who have not been mining on IPO when other coins wher mined. I think there would also be a few that are like minded with me, as well as some who for other reason would want a direct port. In other words I am sure I am not alone. I am finding it tempting to go to multipool 12 hours per day, just so I have a few different eggs in my basket, so to speak.

I realize that the IPO Multiport does change, but from what I have observed, it is not often and not for long before going back to ECC. I understand why that is, but to me just because someone has forecast "Prospective Profitability" (you can have that one) doesn't (to me) mean it will turn out that way. Great Scientists still fail to Forecast weather with 100% Accuracy, I dont see why the Prospective Profitability of any Particular coin should be any Different. So yeah, I want to hedge my bets a little more. The best way to do this, is some direct mining. Yet I hate signing up to many different pools etc. Again please, pretty please with sugar on top Begin allowing for and then publishing Direct mining. Also Could you please release the Port numbers for any & All coins you are allowing this for at Present.

Loyally yous & MP's

Idk, usually the sudden loss of supply causes a spike.

What change? If you mean ending of POW distribution stage, usually prices go up Smiley difficulty normally at mid 40's, so yeah no Tongue

Yes, I meant the cease of POW. I was curious why the price is expected to go up. Will the reward/difficulty change, making them "harder" to mine? Or is a coin with POW just more attractive than a POS?

Maybe going back to ECC would be a good choice as POW will finish in 2 weeks.

Noob question: what exactly is supposed to happen with ECC (reward and prices) when this change takes place?

Yeah, we've definitely given up on it from a mining perspective. Just a question of staying up to date on it to make sure people can withdraw their WATER coins, assuming the wallet code and network health allow for even that.

IMO just give up on WATER, too many problems, me thinks any trust/rep/hype lost.

Not that it affects our mining now, but just to keep everyone up to date on the latest WATER news -- apparently their developers screwed up again. Block rewards from 7000-8000 were 500x what they should have been, and now, their "fix" which took effect at block 8000 has turned into another mistake. Now it is paying *zero* block rewards because of rounding an int instead of a double, it seems. Now they are talking about another update/fork on a future block, possibly @ block 8500.

The WATER network is a huge mess right now, with multiple different bugs in the wallet code, multiple versions released in the past 24 hours, and at least several different forks currently. It also seems like there are official nodes broadcasting incorrect checkpoints or using older versions. On top of all that, the developers haven't been responsive at all on IRC, github, or in their announcement thread.

We'll do what we can in terms of processing withdrawals, even if it involves manually rebroadcasting them, but we're going to wait at least a day to do that because of the condition of the coin's network currently. Send us an email tomorrow if you're still having issues with withdrawals and we'll look into it then.

There have been multiple updates to their github source, which we've followed in updating, but the network is in a terrible state at the moment. We've been closely working with suchpool, the other large pool that has been mining WATER, to resolve them. We've sync'd our blockchains, established direct peer connections between our pools, sync'd up our node lists, etc., but it hasn't helped. We're getting checkpoint errors indicating a fork, which would seems to indicate that there must be an official node/checkpoint server that is broken somewhere.

The wallet has been showing a total network hashrate of 1.1GH/s, when suchpool had 1.4GH/s and we had 1GH/s on it...

Hopefully things will eventually get back to normal with the WATER network, but there isn't anything more we can do at the moment. We've rerouted the WATER direct port (3426) internally to the multiport, and won't be switching the multiport back to it.

The coin will likely be dead in terms of mining in <100 blocks at block 8000 anyway when block rewards go back to the normal 1000, unfortunately. Hopefully we'll be able to get transactions processed at least -- we've stopped mining it both on the multiport and direct 3426 port now though. Port 3426 now reroutes internally to the multiport which is mining ECC now.

Its like you read my mind, barean Smiley We are back on ECC on the multiport, as the price of NLG has been falling today. We've also redirected the WATER direct port (3426) to the multiport as we haven't been able to resolve the issues with it.

You'll probably see problems with withdrawing WATER due to the poor condition of the network and the developers' buggy wallet code -- hopefully the network will stabilize and improve post-block 8000 as everyone upgrades and things calm down. If withdrawals/transactions aren't processed in the next 24 hours or so, we'll look into processing them manually, but doing that now isn't likely going to help.

The profitability for WATER is through the roof right now because of the "bugged" block rewards being 450x higher than normal (~450k per block instead of 1000), and the devs seem to be decided on letting the blocks stand but are patching the reward back to 1000 at block 8000. Although that isn't guaranteed yet, blocks have been being mined and sold on exchanges so it has been very profitable if you have been able to mine/sell.

There have been major problems with their network though -- the other largest pool is suchpool, but they were on an outdated version and have been causing our blocks to be orphaned because they have more than 51% of the network. I was working with their pool admins to get direct node connections between us setup and get them onto the right version of the wallet code, but there still seem to be issues and we/they keep forking from each other.

We're working on it... you'll see the main multiport and the direct WATER port switching as we try to fix it.

Thanks for the feedback. On the other hand it could be good to switch multiport to any other coin when we´ll arrive at 8k on WATER as NGL profitability seems low. Maybe going back to ECC would be a good choice as POW will finish in 2 weeks.
