Swift Mint Ming Pools

Swift Mint's first pool was launched on September 30th, 2013 with the goal of becoming a site that offers many different types of alt coin mining pools with competitive pool fees. To start out I decided for the first pool I would set up would be for the coin that has been my main focus of mining at the time which was HoboNickels (HBN). The pool has been running smooth and I just finished officially launching a a new pool which can be used to mine BBQCoin (BQC). There are also a couple others which are open to the public with no fee which still need testing but should be setup properly that no issues should be experienced if someone were to mine on them. These pools are detailed on http://www.swiftmint.com but will not be announced here until I am sure they are functioning properly.

The Swift Mint website is located at:

http://www.swiftmint.com

More detailed news will be added to the home page shortly for now news specific to each pool is located on the pool's homepage. This thread will also be updated as announcements regarding the pools are made available.

A little information on the servers and network:

    Pools are running on dedicated servers not a VPS or cloud server.
    Servers are located within true data center and not hosted out of an office or home.
    The network on which the servers are hosted offers protection from DDoS attacks as well.
