Stratum is now fixed up! No more 1-2 mintue rounds.

He said "officially" as in from Nearmiss or aTriz. The admins? You know, the moo guys? Do you work for them
No, but I am pretty official.

In your opinion, how does one capital letter in a password raise the security?
Honestly, switch that off. It doesnt make a real difference.
Honestly, switch that off. It doesnt make a real difference.
It does a lot.
For example: any way of increasing the size of the char set used to make passwords lowers the risk of successful brute force attacks.
if N = all possible characters, there exists:
N^8 8-chars completely free password, and
26+N^7 8-chars passwords with one capital letter
The problem is that if you don't enforce users to use capital letters, numbers and punctuation, they will use just lowercase chars, for lazyness.
Thus, if a hacker brute-forces with lowercase chars, he will be successful on most users.
Actually, brute force attacks works very well with dictionaries, so the real benefit would be not allowing common words, instead of enforcing capitals or numbers.
I have experience of this because I did security audits on unix machines back in the nineties: you could easily find most passwords by using a dictionary + some numbers and mixed caps.

What's with all the red rounds admins? That's a lot of wasted work.
it's not wasted, give a read to the FAQ to understand how hashcows works Thank you.

If it forces you to use a different password than usual, then yes, it's effective. Use a password manager, don't wait for one of the hundreds of sites you're registered to have a leak and them have crackers trying your logins on several famous sites AND being able to login because you use the same password everywhere.
I'm not in the boat of using the same passwords everywhere. Security where security is due, ofc. I just dont think its a usefull "feature". And I've just been asking the hashcows staff about their intentions.

i think it dude to all the canges they are making, give them some time. Just have a backup for the time being so that your mininer don't go to idl.
Any other than me that are using you mining rigs for other stuff? I use mine for DLNA streaming, and a minecraft server. (i do not cpu mine.)

How long should it approximately take to see any kind of balance on the portal? I've been mining for roughly 1 1/2 hours with 700Kh/s, seeing accepted shares but balance still says 0.
the time needed for the round to be closed (i.e. switch to another coin) plus the time for all the blocks to mature, if you decided to be paid in BTC. read hashcows' FAQ January 09, 2014, 06:50:19 AM
They are working on stratum. Thats what all the switching is about i guess. And the stats are also off. Round 6327 and 6334 show exactly the same amount of imatures. So its a bit wonky still i guess.
Either sit it out for today, or change to middlecoin for a lttle while.

I've been mining the whole night and my hashrate shows 5 times lower than it actualy is (400Kh/s instead of 2MH/s).
Also it shows current balance as 0.00000522 BTC which is way too low. What is going on?

January 09, 2014, 05:09:39 AM
