Good news. Dev could help. Each independent pool is important.

For everyone mining in my pool.  We have a block.  The BBP is in the pool wallet, now investigating why its not reflected on the website.

next dumbaaa question:? what address in faucet:

are you still thinking that anybody will be sending coins to anywhere? facepalm ...

ALL MINING IS ONLY ONLY ONLY FOR PROFIT


again any changes on pool: hashrate of my miners flying up down up down ... jesus christ....

Dev recently released a (Personal?) faucet:
http://accountability.biblepay.org/  or  http://pool.biblepay.org/ ?
and click Faucet >> Faucet

If you incorporated a small percentage of coins back as a "rewards" system it could be used as a way to introduce new people to the coin.

My pool is running the same exact software as the other other one (minus the restrictions on number of shares submitted), so unfortunately you cannot see who found the block.  Ideally though that feature would be implemented in the future.

I will add a much more descriptive paragraph to the pool on how to write a letter to an orphan later today. 

I wanted to throw this out there for the Zealous:  something I would do if I had more time, but Im currently writing a script language extension.

One use case for BiblePay is potentially a Bible Pay store.  Maybe we start with bibles and coffee mugs.  It would just be cool to be able to click on the item and buy it with bible pay.    One of the things I do on one of my sites is I give away bibles.  One of the cheaper ways to buy a good bible is to search for "NKJV" bible on Amazon, and you can usually pick up 3 at a time for $4 each and free shipping if you are prime member.  If I were taking a stab at this I would try to integrate "drop shipments" from the amazon API to drop ship your order directly to the end user.  So the idea is something like this:

Your new storefront offers Product 1: $8 for a NKJV bible, and say 10,000 in BBP.
User checks out.
Your API connects to amazon and drop ships to the user.

It would be sweet huh?

Try it if you are zealous!  Some day I will add a couple products to the pool, and add the shipping address fields to the user account.

Why do you think that? As far as I know it has nothing to do with mining.

This is the best post I read in the last two days.  You can see the positive vision from every degree in this case.

Without it I was thinking of closing down this thread, but thanks Ferohers, I will keep it open longer and see what we can do to create a utopia here.


I want to formally invite a c++ dev to the slack channel that has worked before on one of the top 100 cryptocoins.  I want to collaborate with you on a few things, one being improving the multithreading in the biblehash algorithm to make it more consistent for everyone.  If you are interested please send me an email to [email protected].


In the mean time, Im working on extending the bitcoin script language to add BiblePay contingent transaction types for retirement accounts.

It's nothing to be worried about at the moment. I think it's originally a Dash feature and it's used to send instant/private payments. But I think it will only really be activated once the sanctuaries go live.

Yes, I agreed that no point to dispute about pool issue here. Because solo miners are back, network hashrate returns to as high as few days ago did.
And I also think that it is best to get a PR person to work on communication at bitcointalk and other discussions.

Sadly I had to read all of this.

I strongly suggest all of you calm down. It is normal that people will have different views which can be hard to accept.

A few idea I captured includes my thoughts

a) the main focus is to help people. we should not forget that.
b) we need more people to join us, not a few big miners who want more coins.
c) being a pessimist and attacking the dev will do no good.
d) we need a PR person. who will act as a middleman. so the dev can focus improving the coin.
e) what we are doing here is non-sense. however helping orphans does make sense. so a world full of virtual coins which are pretty much each other, we have chance to become different.

I will pray for all.

in the pool, go to 'orphans>sponsored orphans list'. There is a list of orphans. You can write them by right clicking on a name and select 'write'. The thing at the moment is - in my opinion - that it is not really easy to figure out which orphans have already been written to (you can find the already send/approved letters at the 'outgoing letters' tab).

Is this coin for one religion or all?

where is any guideline how to write letter? this coin is pain where nothing work how it could....no guideline....nothing.....    I do not even think that inblue left
is so hard to do help-guide for noobs?

time to change pool/solo mining or to jump to satancoin  
writing letter to anybody?  

next way will be muslimcoin 

Haha! You know, at first I didn't really like you because you used such strong language all the time, but I'm starting to think you're alright and probably a good drinking buddy The 6% fee is for people on the pool that don't write letters to orphans. i think it's used to pay the 'Writing Bounty'. If you write one or two letters, the fee goes to 0%.

And just a remark for people that want to earn easy BBP: write some letters to orphans! The current bounty is almost 4000 BBP and it takes only a few minutes to write a letter. And of course, it's very nice for orphans to get letters from their sponsors!

i told from begin= this coin is very very very strange=weird=nonundestarding= pitty that my english is very shit-poor and all my thoughts is in my head=  dev doesnt know how working mining= HSP2 vs HSP1 ...


can you anybody explain what is that 6% fee on pool? really that we have 6% fees on pool.biblepay.org?


@nsummy your 2% fees is better like fees on pool.biblepay?

next idiot question: why we cant see who hit block?  nsummy: on your pool we can see it?



thanks

I like this. My single workstation will be much more appreciated in the pool, where at the moment, I really struggle!
Indeed the main aim was to help someone else, not to help greedy individuals.

You don't see this all happen because you don't make your promises come true(about repair more than 4 core cpu hps2). You help people to solve the problem  and even don't say a word about is it ok for you or not. And now you are telling inblue that he is hacker and steals coins... as you said,  its opensource so isn't it his own upgrade of wallet?!?!

I also don't quite understand. If the boxes used have a lot of cpu-power, running more instances wouldn't really degrade the quality of the nodes, right? If you can assign a node to each processor of a multi-processor rig, then that seems fair to me.

I'm just a small miner myself btw, using only midrange single-cpu boxes. But I could view all those boxes together as 'one multi-cpu box', and then I would also be running multiple instances.

Of course, I could imagine that in the future, someone writes a script that starts as many nodes as possible on one box (say: 2 per thread or more, I don't know), thereby bypassing the original intent. And I could also see that as a sort of 'hack'. Satoshi Nakamoto also envisioned Bitcoin als a cpu-mined coin, by 'normal users', but nowadays there are specialized ASICs, mostly operated by a few big companies, that 'hacked' that original view. But I don't think you can do anything about it by changing pool-rules. The same miners, with the same optimizations, will only start mining solo or on another pool. And in the worst-case scenario, they will leave the project, which isn't good for anybody, because people like inblue are the ones that make this community great.

I think that a better way to go about this, is for everyone to just work together and try and make this coin as great as it's potential shows it can be. And make it as interesting as possible to mine by 'normal people'.

I understand the view of trying to make this 'a coin for the people, for the orphans', but in this world, people aren't likely going to invest time or money if there is no personal gain - myself included. It's sad that the world works like this, but it does in my view. So I think making this coin something worth to invest in (like with the 401k options etc), will only profit the orphans more, because it raises the value of the coin.
