Don't send me a pm unless you gpg encrypt it.

Continuing to experiment here... so far gpuMAX sees the correct hashrate, but my pool (BTCGuild) is showing considerably less hashes. For example, with no public work happening I'm sending 4.4G to max, but I'm seeing 3.8G at the pool. Normally, if I send it direct, I would see a number much closer to 4.4G.

Is this what other people are seeing? I'm not too excited about losing 600 Mh.

There are times where you'll see it go the other direction as well. It has something to do with how the stats are counted/displayed on GPUMax. There are times where it gets behind, so you appear to be doing less than whats being reported at the pool. Then when its catching up, it'll say you're doing more than what the pool says.

Remember, there is leasing going on and that will lower your rate at your private pool.

I tried it and had 650 Gh pointed at my pool within minutes. Delivered the full amount, plus some. Question is, at those prices who is buying shares and why? I can just buy BTC from Gox for less. BTW - I couldn't pay USD, only BTC.

If someone wants to pay me 3342 per share, heck lets talk - I got 8 G's

Interesting.... Always before it had been hours or even days.

This matches my recent experience, it was minutes at most.
It might even be practical to use GPUMax to hop...

If GPUMax doesn't come through working on a custom pool I'll be PM'ing you.

I tried doing a 40000 share purchase for the hell of it when they were at 0.0000287 the other day - pointed it at eclipseMC, happened to get fairly good luck and made my coins back + 50%.

Also, on a 40000 share purchase gpumax actually delivered over 50000:

LOL. Sign me up!

Seriously though.....this has been debated ad naseum, and the concensus is buying shares is a form of gambling on Proportional pools. You could make a lot of money if you hit a hot streak while pointing the ION cannon that is GPUmax at a prop pool.

About how long do share purchases take to be fulfilled at the normal rate?

Someone at GPUMax has to start them manually, after which it should be pretty quick, you're looking at anywhere from 100-600Ghash/s pointed at the pool of your choice.

Thanks! As well, is the ability now there for mining to your own pool/solo, not just going with the main ones that are accepted?

Anyone else seeing absolutely tiny amounts of public work? I think I've had about 100 public shares in the past 48 hours.

When pirate pays I will send some shares your way Wink

took me about 6 month now ..... i got it today. Im not sure if we should use this ..... since its a prirate ops.....

illl test it a bit, to give it a chance.

Question:
isn't gpumax bad for bitcoin; like big pools (Deebit)?
Centralisation of Hashing power ?

I'd say no, given that anything can be set as a private pool and purchases can now be directed anywhere...
