Is YAC a useful coin to have here? It's not a usual Scrypt coin, so it can't be directly compared to any other coin, is my understanding. The only way to mine it is to CPU mine (currently) so you can do it in addition to any other coin you're mining.

Thanks for adding YAC but I think that you should specify in the algo column that this is not a regular Scrypt coin.   What's the official name again, Scrypt-N or scrypt-jane?

This website rules, but I'm missing one thing: reward in BTC. So just reward*Best price

Anyway, good job Smiley

For the first time in quite a while now, BTC is once again the most profitable coin to mine if you're merged mining. Thought it was interesting to note!

Fixed - it was using old URL.  I am implementing a three level redundancy on these numbers so this shouldn't happen again.

Right now TRC diff is over 93,000 and Coinchoose shows half of it: 46,247.

Actually, the difficulty is less than that - http://trc.cryptocoinexplorer.com/chain/Terracoin/q/getdifficulty

However, I average out the past hours difficulty in what is shown in the chart given its large swings.

I think CoinChoose is trying to a show a readable chart on what the profit levels would be if someone mined TRC exclusively. The more profitable way to mine TRC is to hop the chain when difficulty falls below some threshold level. I'm currently hopping TRC with a custom script, my rigs are running two instances of cgminer and the script constantly decides on which instance the GPUs are enabled. USB devices might not work with this scheme, though.

You might want to consider eliminating TRC from the table. Difficulty adjusts very quickly, and it seems like Coinchoose has been stuck at 15996.27 for a long time. I'm showing current difficulty as 59,000, putting TRC at 44%, not 177% as coinchoose is reporting.

You either need much quicker difficulty polling for TRC, or just remove it. I long ago determined that TRC is virtually never profitable to mine because as soon as the difficulty drops low enough (~25K), miners jump on it and it goes back up.

Just my two cents.

It was broken.  I check every 30 seconds or so and update (normally), but smooth out TRC a bit due ot its crazy movements.

The TRC difficulty (and profitability) is again very different from the other sites (15,996 vs. 52,368). Why is that?

EDIT: Lol, FloridaBear was the first to ask. Smiley

The TRC difficulty on CoinChoose has not changed in hours, seeing TRC calculates a  new difficulty every hour, this is clearly broken.



Hmm. - it is from a block block explorer for TRC.  I am looking at it right now.

FRC is the openly available portion that miners can obtain while FRC-F is the portion of each block that is given to the foundation.

As a note... Foundation funds are not being dispensed until the foundation is legally set up and people should voice opinions on the scheduling and proportions of the dispensation. We want as many people involved as possible to insure that the foundation distributes the coins equitably. Check here: http://www.freicoin.org/freicoin-budget-t116.html

Also remember that after 3 years approx. all mining including the 5% demurrage will go to the miners so the initial foundation coin will all be redistributed and be back in circulation and then ultimately redistributed back to the miners over and over and over again so this is a temporary situation that is intended to spread coin distribution beyond the confines of cryptocommunity. Not a centralized power that remains forever locked in using these funds. So really in time this coin just reverts to miners.

Good clarification!

I blame the confusing information on CoinChoose for the recent pump and dump by miners of FTC which has caused the coin all sorts of problems.

Damn Sal, why you gotta screw up all the coins?

Heh - it was also the low difficulty coupled with the high exchange rate, but who is counting Smiley
