Topic: [ANN][POOL] ipoMiner - Profitable multipool targeting new coins + merged mining! - page 5. (Read 366235 times)

Inception (INCP) has been added to the X11 multiport as a new coin override and to direct port 3651.

SysCoin (SYS) has been updated to the new version 2.0 wallet and withdrawals have been re-enabled. Withdrawal addresses have been removed to avoid sending to v1 wallets, please double check when entering your address for SYS withdrawals.

Bittrex has added an auto-sell feature - it can be used by miners to automatically sell mined coins to BTC.

I don't find the pool disappointing. It is actually quite reliable and profitable. Anyway, it is good to try out something new once in a while.

Peercoin (PPC) has been showing increased profitability this month, and has been added as an option to profitability-based switching for the SHA256 multiport.

By request, we've added new worker difficulty settings of 65536, 81920, and 131072 for use if you need them.

I recently purchased a PinIdea X11 ASIC to evaluate it, and can confirm that it works well on the pool. I would suggest using fixed difficulty of 4096 for best results to keep your reject rate low.

Ok cool. Just couldn't find an exchange to send the coins to.
Cheers

I show 7 connections to the ULTC wallet, and the blockchain works. It was being traded on Cryptsy, so it did have value until Cryptsy became insolvent recently. I don't know of another exchange for it so it could be removed, but the wallet doesn't cause any problems and merged mined coins are freely gained I just haven't been in a rush to get rid of it.

Thanks, those seemed to be good answers
I will definitely get a hold of you after I move to a new place with better electric prices I do like how you guys make it very easy to mine.
Until then it will be small scale. I understand why you have the 3% price now. I still don't understand about ULTC.. Isn't that a dead coin ?
Kind of odd

That's great, thanks!

The 3% fee is due to the active management of mining new coins that ipoMiner does. There are no other multipools that operate the way we do. You may be able to replicate it on your own, with a lot of time and effort, by using multiple pools and copying our selections of new coins to mine... but only you can decide if that's worth saving 1-2% in fees.

That said, one critical thing to note is that the timing of starting to mine on new coins is crucial to success. The biggest advantage you get at ipoMiner is that we do profit-based switching most of the time, and then when a new coin seems promising we enable an override to move the multiport to mine it. If you mine a coin early, the difficulty can be extremely low -- resulting in the potential for much larger than average earnings. So, could you do the same thing on your own? Of course. You just have to be good at 1) researching and choosing new coins to mine; 2) very, very fast at switching your miners onto them. It's not as easy as it might seem

HashX has been discontinued - it's simply there for historical information currently. It was an initiative we started to manage cloud mining on LTCGear; unfortunately they stopped providing mining.

Some Scrypt coins work based on "merged mining", which means you find blocks of them when you are mining another coin with higher difficulty. So when you mine any Scrypt coin at ipoMiner, you're also effectively freely gaining several other Scrypt coins which are able to be merged mined: DogeCoin (DOGE), ViaCoin (VIA), SysCoin (SYS), PesetaCoin (PTC), and UmbrellaCoin (ULTC).

If you're interested in scaling up significantly, feel free to get in touch by email and we can discuss options.

Yes, any coins from March 25-April 3 are not on the current blockchain, as I said.

There was an announcement, sure -- but no communication to us about it though. It's impossible to constantly monitor every thread for the >34 coins we mine.

The simple fact is that it was very irresponsible of Florincoin to force a hard forking update with <12 hours notice, and not notify pools/exchanges anyway. The proper way to do a hard fork is to provide a minimum of several days notice AND contact pools + exchanges, which is how most coins do this type of update.

Hey just wanted to let you know that I have been mining the last week on ipo and enjoying it alot.
I would like to know however how you arrived at 3% ? It's easy enough to look at your website, see what you are mining and mine it elsewhere at a pool with 1%.
I am about to scale up very largely in a few months and am weighing my options.

Also I don't understand for the life of me what that https://www.ipominer.com/hashx is...
It's terribly unclear. You guys are in the US right ? Where at ? Just curious about that is all.

Also when mining scypt why am I getting coins like ULTC ?
I can't even figure out what that is.. It's Umbrella right ? A defunct coin ?

I think you guys ought to drop down to 2% and you would gain alot more people.. Just my opinion is all..
Otherwise the site works great and the mining is good!

So, this means exactly what? that I lost my FLO coins? Because they are not in my balance....

Btw, there was an announcement regarding this hard fork since March, 25th at https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.14314984

That's true -- as indicated, all FLO mined or withdrawn from March 25-April 3 is not present on the current blockchain. Therefore, withdrawals during that time were removed and added back to balances. Mined blocks from that time which are now orphaned on the current blockchain were also removed.

All my FLO coins simply disappeared, there was an withdrawal request since some days ago, but they are not in the withdrawal history, neither in the coin recent payouts list.

FLO should be working again now. I removed transactions that were only on the forked blockchain, which affected both withdrawals and mined blocks which occurred after block 1678894. Withdrawals that were never confirmed on the current blockchain were added back into balances, and mined blocks that were orphaned on the current blockchain were removed.

Well not really but anomolies do happen when you are not around. Like right now feather is real high compared to any of the x11 ones..
It's not too important, as I am using your multipool over the one that lets me switch automatically lol. So not really a big deal.
Run some giveaways.. hype it! lol

At the moment it's not possible; if we add support for multi-algorithm switching in the future it would function that way. Do you find much need for switching algorithms often? For my own mining, it seems profitability for GPUs on one algorithm tends to be (and stay) much higher than others for long periods.

I use this on another site,


Was wondering if I could do something like this...
