0.04 BTC for 2400 kh/s - mined for three days, that's the third day -- so a full cycle of daily coins.  LTC would have been .043 -- ~7% more

Glad to have you, sorry you're experience with hashcows hasn't been great so far, LTC currently is pretty damn profitable and the alt coin market prices are pretty low. Once we get a few more tweaks/changes under our belts, I assure you the cows will return even better profits than we are seeing now.

We are bouncing around some ideas and we should have some ways in the future to resolve the stale issues people are having.

I threw almost 8mh/s at this last night, it's still going, and i'm still getting crazy amounts of stales, 6-10%, doesn't look like it's worth it compared to just straight mining LTC, but i'll see tonight after it's been a full 24hrs.

440 KH/s, payout yesterday was BTC0.0080

Hope that answers your question.

Please anybody can provide us a BTC/MHash/Day estimate?

Simply tell us what is your hashrate , and what was your earnings in past 24hours?

tnx.

GDC still keeps coming up a fair bit, again with very minimal returns ... any chance you could handicap it further or remove it for now? It seriously earns less than half the second lowest earning coins from what I've seen. 

These rounds are all roughly 10 mins long,


As you can see both times GDC came up it earned next to nothing ... this is at approx 440KH/s.

Other than that pretty happy with the pool ... keep up the good work.

actual the beauty (and i know is close to impossible) would be to sell the immature coins out of the pool purse and beating everyone else :-)

Your talking about wanting your BTC paid hourly as opposed to once per 24hrs?

One IMPORTANT issue that needs to be addressed soon:

- Hourly payouts.  Need to pay out the confirmed hourly batches ASAP.  Cause in 24 hours, it could be 50% lower.  Need to do it within the hour to maximize the profits.

You have a similar level hashrate to me,  I run between 400 and 450 depending on if Im using my cpu to mine too.  I tried middlecoin ... and found it frustrating for a few reasons at my hashrate. The main one being that with middlecoin's difficulty setting I couldn't get a share in edgewise, and according to their stats I never got over the .2 MH/s recognised traffic ... where here on hashcows I am pretty damn sure I am getting my lower hashrate properly tracked, yes sometimes it is under, but just as often it is over, most of the time its pretty damn close to what my miners say they are doing.

I also did not like that for middlcoin you had to get to BTC0.01 before getting an kind of cashout, no cashout now option or otherwise,  I've still got mined income sitting on middlecoin ... doubt I will mine enough on it to ever get my first payout. On hashcows you can set your payout threshold as low as BTC0.001,  means pretty much a guarunteed daily payout at lower hashrates, had payouts 3 days running, each higher than the last.

Plus I like that it is a new pool, the admins are happy to take ideas to improve the pool for everyone,  yah it does have its growing pains, but overall I am far more confident in this pool than I was with middlecoin ... far more option of control, and tracking of your own stats than what middlecoin allows.

I can't give you any hard numbers as to time mined on middlecoin but I did mine for over 24 hrs there, and have a balance of BTC0.0041. I've made almost double that on my best day mining here, and even the first day I started mining here without a full 24 hrs of mining I had a payout of BTC0.0044.

awesome work DeckardLain, looks great!

Can you tell me (or pm if you prefer) your username on the pool?


Thanks

you have to raise the diff. I'm mining with Q=0,S=1,E=2 and still getting a 13% stale that is worse then yesterday 7%. It's really a waste. I really love your pool and the choice of keeping the coins i want, but not this way

Absolutely.  Didn't actually take your previous comments as a hit against the pool perse. More just meant, naturally, someone can customize a system to their liking that will perform much better for them! (If they have the skills).

* The profitability factor is something that is always a work in progress.  It changes with hashrate, it changes with outstanding pool balances, there are a lot of factors.  What may be profitable for an individual miner may not be for the pool ect.

* The auto-trade of coins is for sure never going to be as effective as day trading, or just a human in general doing the occaisonal trade, which we post on the site a bunch of times as well.  This was a strongly motivating factor that lead to building the auto-trading aspect as optional on a per coin basis.  A human will generally always be able to come out ahead in short term trades (trade-bots aside). And as you said, a pool such as this has to move coins in a fairly expedient manner to get BTC back to miners, surely less efficient than being able to hold coins as long as needed!

* I had a response to your last point as well, but didn't feel it was coming across quite right.  Needless to say, I've felt similar towards pools like ours over my time in crypto, but also have an appreciation for active dev's who are coming up with clever new adjustments to handle large sudden hashrate spikes.

These aren't meant to be rebuttals or anything, just wanted to say that I share some of your viewpoints, and above is how the pool handles them (for anyone coming along reading this later)

Oh, I'm not even trying to diss the service that I'm using! Your pool and system is excellent. There are however 3 issues with multipools, where the operators must be careful:
- Non-accurate profitability calculations when choosing coins, or perhaps it's very variable according to one's personal mining setup. I'm not sure that others have similar amount of rejects on some coins.
- Don't blindly dump a lot of mined coins on an exchange at "any" or unfavourable price. It hurts the miner, the pool, the miners that come later and the viability of the coin. I can wait for days or weeks for a coin to be sold, that's if I actually want to sell.
- Multipools should be careful with the massive amount of hash rate they have at the disposal. What will it do to alt-coins, medium-term? Some coins are honestly copy/paste let alone scamcoins (which are way worse at damaging the scene than anything else combined), others bring decent innovation. Most don't resist being thrown spikes of megahashes at them, either due to technical details, being too new or because people stop trading a coin frequently dumped. I actually care about these efforts and the future viability of those coins, besides the obvious self-interest of profit.

I hope it's clear what I'm trying to say and my concerns 

Indeed, I'm sure that will work much better for you (obviously). For those who can't or don't want to create their own, Hashcows is here, with at least a bit of choice on keeping coins or trading them

Or manage what and when I mine and trade with my own script, which is work in progress

could you also add the average profitability for a round in the statistics table?
