Can we stop mining PXC because autosell never works on cryptsy and it's not worth my time to sell digits of pxc for 500 satoshis each.

I've actually been considering dumping it recently.  It's a scamcoin to begin with, and the recent ordeal with PhenixEx makes me think that it really shouldn't be around anymore.

Kill it.

Well I've added 1.3GH/s to the bitcoin pool with my block erupters that came in today.  Smiley

Just need to wait for my USB fan + hub to come in to cool them, they get very hot and right now I've ghetto-rigged a 140MM fan outside my PC case to cool them off. Wink

I looked at p2pool but I'd have to do a bit of development to log the shares in the DB.  It wasn't something I was up to.

Eloipool may be an option.  I thought it was just a pool server, I had no idea it was a way of aggregating hash.  Can you explain a little further how it works?  I don't see anything in the readme about doing this.

Edit:  I just spoke to Luke-Jr and he told me that that feature of Eloipool was never finished..

Did he give any insight as to how long or how hard it would be to get that updated for you?  It's a really good motivation because Eliopool from what I understand is backed by the power of Eligius which is a top contending pool at the moment.  I'm sure he'd appreciate any hash power backing their system as well as us needing something to drop our variance/luck factors down to tolerable levels.  Bitcoin miners can't gamble with their hash rate anymore because many are afraid of loosing/having lost their opportunity to ROI their hardware at all so a pool with such high variance (fee or no fee will be unattractive to most).

Just my 0.0001 BTC....

Luke-Jr runs Eligius..  The idea I got was that he's not really interested.

I have an idea to make multipool a more attractive bitcoin pool: Keep the 1.5% fee on all pools except the bitcoin pool, and have 0% fee there.

If budget allows (server costs would still be covered + enough for your work) I think that would attract more folks to the pool to mine bitcoins.

+1

Maybe just until the 1st block is found, or for a month or whatever. Then advertise it and get them rolling in!

How about doing some promotion in "Bitcoin Forum > Bitcoin > Mining > Pools" forum to drum up some business. I'm think many Bitcoin miners don't know you are here hidden in "Alternate cryptocurrencies"

I'm kind of in the school of thought... why not back the BTC portion of this pool with p2pool or eliopool so that the variance will be reduced and rewards are more likely  (of the 2 Eliopool seems to have the greater hash rate on network but either are good and both are growing and they both payout directly to where you want the funds as if you were solo pool mining)

Then the advantages of this pool are magnified because the BTC portion is comprable to mainstream pools with the added bonus of "coin hopping" when other coins are more profitable.

Really there is no point for us to be "solo" mine btc on this small pool vs something like BTC Guild/etc that solves blocks in minutes.  Not weeks.
Sorry not trying to be rude or anything, just a fact this new 391 million diff just made it even harder to find a block, mining btc requires a huge amount of hashing power, something
that is seriously lacking here.

So please lets get back to mine the most profitable "alt" coin.

No, we're not retreating into alts.  We are a Bitcoin pool now.  The challenge is to grow our hashrate.  There is loads of ASIC hashpower coming online now, and I know that some of those people will want to maximize their profits.  We just need to let them know we are out here.

I have a thread in the Pools section already and we're added to the "List of Pools" post.

Cool, I found it eventually https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/200thauto-profit-switching-asic-pool-multipoolus-10-profit-vs-btc-alone-311067 Needs some bump, help Flound out guys.

Well if we are going to be a BTC pool, how about a PPS system in place. Make it worth our wild. Smiley

The BTC pool will likely switch to PPLNS at some point, as we aren't likely to attract too many miners with a hoppable reward system.  So I'll have to figure that out.

PPS is a non-starter.

How about RBPPS?

well here is another question seeing all other alt coins are % profit to btc, how are we ever going to mine alt coins seeing btc is 100% most profitable?

We mine the altcoins when they go over 100%.
